In this episode, Helen Hollyman interviews Bill and Turner Ross, two brothers who make documentaries. Their most recent film is Tchoupitoulas- a story about the New Orleans night. It was most recently screened at South by Southwest in Austin, Texas to much critical acclaim. Listen as Helen asks Bill and Turner about everything from their favorite Midwestern dishes to their experiences floating down the Mississippi on a pontoon shack. Hear about how their film was inspired by the smells, sights, and magic of New Orleans music, food, and culture. This program was sponsored by Cain Winery .
"It's something that we've been doing our entire lives- trying to get into as much trouble as we possibly can. 'Let's go down the Mississippi River in a really crappy toolshed with pontoons on it and see if we survive.'" -- The Ross Brothers on U Look Hungry

U Look Hungry is here this week to drop some knowledge about Mardi Gras, and no it's not just one day long! Host Helen Hollyman is joined by renown New Orleans bartender Chris Hannah who works at the legendary French 75 bar at Arnaud's Restaurant. He gives us the scoop on all the classic Mardi Gras cocktails--from the Suissesse to the Bacchanalian-- to hangover helpers and digestifs. Tune in and by the end of this episode you'll be ready to pass for a native and even get invited into New Orleans crew. This episode is sponsored by S. Wallace Edwards & Sons.
"In order to storytell you need to have a couple facts and then you embellish your story, so reading old books is a fantastic way to get facts . . I keep about 8 cocktail books behind the bar and I love to serve a guest, make them a drink, and then hand them a book so they can read about it, it enhances the experience."
