This new Rambling Podcast is The New Orleans Show, about the musical tradition of New Orleans and Hurricane Katrina. If you care as much about these issues as I do, here are two charities I recommend contributing to: Habitat for Humanity has specific projects to rebuild homes in the Ninth Ward. The Tipitina's Foundation collects and donates instruments for disenfrenchised schools to preserve and nurture the New Orleans musical tradition.
