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 Pelicans drop one to the best squad in the NBA but bounce back by demolishing the C or D-squad from Golden State while their star players sit. Upset that you dropped serious dime on the game but don't get to see Steph? You're not alone, and the NBA doesn't care. Andy Dalton glows a fiery red as the Saints trounce the Rams at home, and the return of The Worst.

Polk makes a couple of trips to the Blender to see a Zion-less Pelicans dismantle the Grizzlies and Bulls. Do we have any concerns about how good the Pels look without their young superstar!? It's a lot of fun seeing Trey Murphy develop more, and it's official: Jose Alvarado is GOOD. The Saints stink, Dennis Allen is gone (right?), and let's just see what Jameis can do with it. LaToya goes clothes shopping, and Lee Zurik goes deep undercover!

The Pelicans are doing just fine for a schedule that's had 8 road games, included a few injuries, and 3 overtime games - A gritty win in Chicago led by Brandon "Got That Dog In Him" Ingram and Zion gets the Pels back on track before a nice stand at home. There's a lot of fun energy surrounding the Green Wave as Tulane rises to 16 in the national polls, and a local favorite is back in grocery stores!

New Orleans is a basketball city, now and forever. Football? That's a thing of the past. Let us look forward to the blessings bestowed upon us by the upstart, young gun Pelicans who showed a lot of heart in a overtime loss to the Jazz, and pulled out a scrappy win against the Mavs with a bubbling blender crowd. Dennis Allen rewards Andy Dalton with the starting spot despite having a healthy Jameis Winston back. The return of JOKES! The Worst!

The Pelicans live up to the hype with a dominating season opener against the Brooklyn Nets. The Saints fall to the Burrow-led Bengals, but hope to regain some ground in Arizona amidst injuries, suspect defense, and average QB play. I'd rather watch every Thursday Night Football game this season again than see another John Kennedy or Steve Scalise TV ad.

It's officially Taysom time in the Superdome as the swiss army knife has a hall of fame performance to help close out a tight one against a revived Geno Smith and the Seahawks. The Pelicans continue their undefeated pre-season only adding fuel to the burning hype-fire that we are gladly warming ourselves with. No one reads these. What am I talking about? There's a shark attack off the Louisiana coast and someone lives to tell the tale!

Andy Dalton and the New Orleans Saints play their best football of the season but still drop one in London. The New Orleans Pelicans host an open practice with the newly transformed Zion, then proceed to unleash in Chicago for the preseason. John Kennedy is a clown, swimming in potholes is frowned upon, and LaToya is gonna pay us back (eventually).
