A brief oral biography of Bernard de Marigny, a larger-than-life figure in New Orleans history, who definitely needs his own Showtime original series.

"Foe-burg," cher, it's pronounced. not "fow."

Omg idk how I ended up here but I’m not complaining. This guy is hilarious and as a huge obsessor over New Orleans, I’ve fallen down a rabbit hole of these videos and it’s so great.

I think part of the reason I enjoy your videos so much is because I was also the weird kid reenacting sword fights and imagining pistol duels and imagining myself as a swashbuckler or a hammer wielding Goliath. Alas I was a skinny ten year old and I didn’t have a dueling partner.

Funny and informative, this should have more views.

I think you should do a Showtime series on him and also the legendary Baroness Michaela Pontalba, to whom we owe so much! In addition, the NOLA ghost stories, so steeped in our history, would make a great mini-series, as our ghost tours are the most popular of all our tours.

Hope this whets the appetite for more about this remarkable man. "The Faubourg Marigny of New Orleans: A History" was published by LSU Press in October 2018 and has the most factual and complete account of Bernard's life yet written.

We have two perpendicular streets here in town named Nelson and Trafalgar. I always thought it would have been nice of them to have Nelson reach Trafalgar but stop there. Alas, they don't actually meet.

I can see the dual now, picturing the movie in my head. it's Willem Defoe swinging his hammer in leather coveralls... and getting his ass kicked by Michael Pare, wait that was Streets of Fire, nvm.

Couldn't like, like even though I liked the video cause there's like 420 likes liked (like registered) and that's a long liked internet meme number like 69. So I shall effect my affection with this affable comment.
