The Pelicans are going every which way but up, the Saints are giving us just enough morsels to keep themselves in the NOLA news cycle, and Mardi Gras isn’t exactly a bust.

As always, Polk & Kush is sponsored by Jansen Petagna. Find him on Instagram @j_petagnaMusic by Mike Wiebe, of Drakulas, Riverboat Gamblers, and the International News Service podcast.
