In this bedtime story, I tell you about New Orleans, Voodoo and the famous "Voodoo Queen," Marie Laveau, who dominated Louisiana Voodoo in the 19th Century. We take a look at how different syncretic religions formed in South and North America, combining African religions like Vodun or Yoruba with Roman Catholicism and indigenous beliefs, or the particular blend that happened in Louisiana with the influence of Haitian Voodoo. We also explore the history of New Orleans since its foundation and what its unique culture brought to the world, including Jazz music.

For five seasons today's guest has shared her life with us on the Bravo juggernaut "The Real Housewives of New Jersey."  Jackie Goldschneider has had her share of misunderstandings, parties and fights.  But it was her real life battle with anorexia that made this Housewife someone we could all relate to. 
She gives us a peek behind the curtain of this upcoming season of RHONJ:  She hints at the ever changing alliances within the friend group, what it meant to have Teresa Giudice at her book signing and what fights are good fights in the Housewife world.  
Jackie also opens up about her new book "The Weight of Beautiful" and the journey it took to get here. From her rock bottom to her recovery, she talks honestly about why she felt it was important for the show to air her struggles and the need for a role model for those living with the disease.
Jackie's in a great place in her life right now, and we were so happy to get to chat about it all.  Take a listen!

This unfiltered chat promises revelations that will leave you gasping for air - from shocking behind-the-scenes insights to scandalous tales of on-set behavior. Laura opens up about the turbulent circumstances surrounding her controversial exit from the show, the misconceptions about her viewpoints on contentious issues, and her unique journey from Latvia to the yachting world.
Laura’s candid revelations about the show are as unpredictable as the high seas. From the tumultuous nights out to the drinking culture, she uncovers the stark realities that the glossy edits of reality television often obscure.

As we explore the lack of support she received during this challenging time, we navigate the emotional waves of filming, the tricky dynamics with her fellow crewmates, and the aftermath of her departure from the show. Join us for this captivating episode where reality TV meets real life, and the line between the two becomes blurred.
