Recorded in May 2017 for our second season, Episode 16 featured two of then-Gov. John Bel Edwards’ key aides: Matthew Block and Richard Carbo. Block discussed his job as the administration’s executive counsel. Carbo, Edwards’ communications director, touched on working with the press and shared memories about growing up in a well-known political family. Speaking of, this episode starts with a blast from the past in the form of an audio clip of the late Camille Gravel. In addition to being Carbo’s grandfather, Gravel, like Block, was the executive counsel for three Louisiana governors dating back to Uncle Earl Long.
