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.

Polk and Kush has miraculously returned! The Pelicans should keep Brandon Ingram and see what happens. Dennis Allen is not "cool". Polk is recording a special on August 17th (https://www.eventbrite.com/o/comedy-by-sports-drink-64434958343) and there were some insane world events.

The Pels are blowing teams out and home game tickets are still dirt cheap! Where's the hype??? The Saints will probably be saying bye-bye to Michael Thomas and Marshon Lattimore, and LaToya finally did it - we don't care anymore! Do whatever you want!

Are Pelicans fans turned off by consistency? We ask why we aren't hearing that much hoopla about the Pelicans hot streak coming out of the all-star break with a dominating win over Houston as Point Zion runs the show. We've got brake tags, pet possums, whip-its and more in our NOLA breakdown, and much more.Sponsored by The Garden Gates Landscape Company.
