Polk and Kush
An absurd look at sports and life in New Orleans. This weekly podcast featuring comedian Andrew Polk and longtime local columnist Scott Kushner covers New Orleans teams with a bend away from stats and boring analysis. Instead they focus on the practical, entertaining side of the Saints, Pelicans, UNO, Tulane, and more.

The New Orleans Saints begin the season 0-2 but man does it feel better than a Derek Carr/Dennis Allen-led team. We sing some praises for the new-look black and gold, but as usual, the concession stand prices are too damn high! Polk recaps his 9/11 show and doesn't say anything that will get him thrown into Alligator Alcatraz. Kush goes on several all-time rants. Will New Orleans see a Super Bowl again? Why doesn't Gayle sell the team? All this and muuuuuccccchhhhhh more.
