In this episode, Caleb dives into one of Louisiana’s most bizarre tales—the Axman of New Orleans. With his Harry Potter glasses on, he unpacks the infamous letter the Axman sent to the city, hilariously comparing it to a Robert Frost poem. Expect chills, laughs, and a side of Louisiana flavor as Caleb teaches us about the “Holy Trinity” (Word of the Day) of Cajun cooking (onions, bell peppers, celery) and why jazz might just save your life. Turn up the music and join the mystery!
