Also, that guy with the puppet: I really appreciate how he didn't overdo the lip flaps when he spoke. A lot of puppeteers move the mouth too much when talking.

Perfect stuff to watch on break--helps me decompress at an awful job.

That Earl Stanton puppet was awesome 🤩

I love New Orleans 😍 I've only had the pleasure of visiting once, pre-Katrina. Stepping foot in the French Quarter was like coming home. My body hummed the entire time I was there. It was great seeing you enjoying the city. Love this road trip!

I’ve lived here my entire life and still get so much joy from seeing new things around NOLA

Never been to New Orleans. Looks quite interesting. I think I could gain a lot of weight from the food alone. The oysters and the po boy looked so yummy!

inflation hittin’ the robot fortune tellers hard

New Orleans is a unique city. Love it. The food. The booze. The vibes. The history. Been there 4 times.

I took the family to New Orleans in 2019, I have been all over the country and to 9 other countries. That was the most afraid I’ve ever felt in a city

It still saddens me about Hurricane Katrina.. .. such a horrible "event" but none the less awesome video Mr. Jacob!! Love your videos

“Wow... what was that?” Is actually the NOLA motto

I love New Orleans. The food, the architecture, the people, the traditions, the history. I’ve been 3 times and it’s still not enough! I’ll always go back. 💚💜💛

I lived in Chalmette,Louisiana for a long time.its right outside the French quarter and the entire area was submerged and now after hurricane Isaac if you go past Chalmette and the "Wall of death" and go to plaquamines parish the whole area looks like a museum of a ghost town. No residents and boats and houses up in trees. Nature is truly impressive.

Ohhh, you finally got me on my first trip to New Orleans. What an absolutely beautiful city that is. Maintaining its own special character since it began. With a long history of hardship and its most recent terrible hit with Katrina. The images you showed give strong reminders of the St. Elisabeth flood in the Netherlands 1953. My mom and various people from her generation told stories on how they were confiscated to help cleaning up all the flooded houses, drowned animals and associated work. Stories told also of the immense support in men and machines from our war allies: the americans and canadians. Without them we'd be lost. i don't think i would succeed in living permanently in New Orleans, but i would revisit frequently since there is so much special to see. Does anything come after New Orleans? Yes, West to go my friends, go with the sun and the big ocean. This was a magical episode for me Jacob, thank you so much!

Wow for the flood museum! Just wow! Actually WOW to the whole vlog!! Thank you Jacob!

I have loved every stop on our road trip but this is my favorite so far. Safe travels my friend.

Oh Jacob, I love New Orleans! Thank you for taking us with you. 💞🃏

I didn't know that about the crypts! So interesting!! Thank you Carpetbagger for taking us along on all your adventures :)

I normally don't comment out of anxiety but I'm so happy to see you visited New Orleans! I was born and raised in Louisiana so don't mind my little ramble below. The French Quarter is my favorite spot to visit, and I never realized how much is there that I actually missed since most of it is more appealing to visitors! Usually I like catching the sounds of the street performances and visiting the vampire shop! The shop is actually way off from the rest of the shops i usually visit but I adore that little shop, I even was fortunate enough to get myself a pair of top and bottom fangs that are custom fit to my teeth! I also attended my first ever pride parade in the French Quarter, which is why you may see rainbow flags hung up on some stores! Those flags tell parade goers that the shop is lgbt friendly if I'm not mistaken. Fun fact, during category 4-5 hurricanes (such as Katrina or Ida) some people can be out of electricity and even water for months! Recently when Ida hit us I got a taste of that myself, as I was too young to remember Katrina when it happened. It certainly can be a traumatizing experience to sit through one of them, especially if you've never been in a category 4 before. Personally, I got hit by the eye of the storm and some places STILL haven't fully recovered from it.

New Orleans is my favorite city. So much history there. Good food and entertainment. Love the video

Yes! I’m so glad you went somewhere like this. I love places like this. Hope you’re staying warm & safe during your travels! ✨

I love Jacob's new intro. It is wonderful when he walks toward his camera 🤩🤩🤩

This is why I love our city. Great vid Jacob and I’m happy you had a great time! ⚜️ the city is quiet now but not not for long. Mardi Gras is about to get going in about a month.

Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans? I visited 3 years ago and cannot wait go back. No matter what time of day, no matter what day, always crazy stuff happening in the French Quarter. I love the music, and definitely remember the "Hand Grenade" the guy is carrying at 35:39. LOL. Thank you for taking me back, even if it is just through KZfaq.

What a delight this one was! All sorts of info, feelings and food!

I'm glad New Orleans was picked. Great episode 👏

Been loving your road trip

I haven’t been to New Orleans in such a long time. The food looks amazing!! Thanks for sharing!

We loved this so much. It was great that you showed so much of New Orleans. If only there was a third option to stay there just one more day on your voting tab. We have never seen a bunny riding in a basket before. But we are excited to see where you go west.

This is just GREAT !! Jacob! Thanks! For doing this ! As Tina Tuna sang ,… “you’re simply the best “ !

Hi Jacob 🙋🏽. Be safe and careful out there ‼️ it's really good to see you today ‼️

I can’t believe you got two seconds of the loud mime show!! It’s so good.

What a great travel series my friend🙌🏼

Headed to Nola next week.

Thank you, Jacob. New Orleans is at the top of my list of places to visit. It's so lively considering its mid-January. It was quite a thoughtful start to your video, talking about the flood. I love all the colourful houses/buildings. Likewise, I am impressed with your knowledge of voodoo. I would love to try king cakes one of these days. That bathroom looked dirtier than any port-a-potty I've ever seen. Gross. And $5 for the arcade fortune teller! Dear god. Thanks for showing us what you eat. I love that. I also love oysters but have rarely had them cooked. How cool would it be to take a tour on that paddleboat?! And bagpipes?! This video has everything. Watch out for roving caravans of cannibals on your travels and never leave home without your zombie whip! 😜

Besides the fact that all of your adventures are super entertaining, I end up learning so much history from them! Very grateful for your channel. Also seeing the hurricane Katrina exhibit was very sad but eye opening as well, really puts it into deeper perspective

This was a great video. I love museums and I think the flooded house was the simplest yet most unique. The only low part for me was the oysters but you won me over again with the poboy. Someday I would love to see you take us on a riverboat, daddy. :)

This was lovely! So many videos just spotlight Mardi Gras so this has been a great peek into an organic walkthrough of the city

When in doubt. Because Mardi Gras 😅

You're absolutely right Jacob. There's no place like New Orleans. Thanks for bringing us a little piece of it.

Hey Jacob if you're still in town around dinner time come swing by mosacs we've been there since 1946 not much has changed we sell Italian food if you're in the mood

Wait-- catfish? *Now* you're talkin'! 😀

Wow! That Crypt information freaked me out! LOL ,…”sort-a like a Pizza 🍕 oven !! “ Ha ha ha !!!its @6:17

I'm a Louisiana girl born and raised 3 hours from new Orleans I still live here and I love it

OH! I thought that Earl Stanton character at 10:06 was a snail until he walked away. It would have been so much funnier if he was a snail

Oysters. The answer to, what do think the devil's boogers look like.

I love living here .. glad you came ♥️you should come around Halloween and go to the mortuary.. it's pretty scary.. lol

I loved New Orleans when I was there with my family. Hope to visit again

Flooding, like in New Orleans, could happen in the Sacramento Delta. It's like Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. Gotta do it. 🔧

Wow those cyrpts are fascinating and slightly dark, cooking the bodies then pushing them on top of each other

Ahh, been wondering when you'd hit the Cafe du Monde! Great tour of the French Quarter!

I adore how loving people are to you ! You’re enjoying a great experience! Thank you for documenting your journey!

Awesome video! Thank you for sharing Jacob. I have always wanted to visit New Orleans, especially during Mardi Gras. Safe travels, and God bless 🙌

GREAT JOB capturing a daily glimpse of NOLA! Very enjoyable. Stay safe. Safe travels.

Man, I miss the look and feel of being in New Orleans. I haven't been since 2018.

you should come to mobile alabama

I was ten years old when Katrina hit. My grandparents house was completely destroyed and is now a concrete slab. My dad almost had us stay in that house for the hurricane, but fortunately we fled to Covington and stayed with my horseback riding instructor. We didn't suffer flooding there and no one was harmed, but we went without power for a very long time, and I was out of school for several months. I just remember hiding under a bed with my childhood dog and playing Kirby on my Game Boy Advanced during the storm and the following days I helped take care of the horses while the dad's all teamed up to gather generators and try to open the roads back up.

I love New Orleans it is my second home. My mother is from Lafayette Louisiana so it is in my blood!

Thank you for sharing this video, Jacob! I enjoyed it so much, NOLA has been on my bucket list for years and years! ✌️

Can't wait to go to New Orleans next month and in November! I'm going to have beignets at Cafe Du Monde, possibly going to the WW2 museum, and have dinner at Cochan. We're going to be walking down Duval Street too. Have fun Jake!

I like how the guy on the bike kept all of his dogs and the rabbit with names themed for food. When I had cats our cats names were name after gambling themes such Keno, Lotto and Roulette. Now I have 2 dogs and their names are themes of love but in german vocabulary. My min pin mix is named Liebe and my Blue Tic Coon Houd mix is names Herz. For Love & Heart.

I remember seeing the horrible hurricane 🌀 that destroyed New Orleans ;the coffin’s were everywhere

Enjoying this beautiful city 😍❤️😍 it's awesome to see how they have come back from kitrina stay safe and see you in the east tomorrow ❣️😘

What's sad about New Orleans is that they knew they were building on "fake ground" that was technically below sea level. They even got warnings not to build there and the city ignored it and went ahead with construction because they believed the dams and levis were strong enough to withstand flood waters.

When he said River boat Nachez, i was actually on there from my sophomore band trip

There is a Rise Against song about Katrina, one of the lines is about keeping axes in the attic

love what you do man!! you should come to Maine!

The puppet guy was amazing.

Have never been, live in Houston someday, ty Jacob for the tours

The above ground graves is cause it's under sea level and when it floods caskets pop out of the ground and float away

That restaurant looks amazing!!!!

New Orleans is full of some stone cold weirdos and I am here for it! Thank you so much for doing this! This is while trip is one I wish I could take. I’m so glad you’re taking us with you.

I own a pigeon shelter; I appreciate the clip of the pigeons 😊

Puppet guy is freaking me out so much!

I really enjoyed this video Carpetbagger, a fascinating view of a city I know only by name 💖

Puppet man was AMAZING.

I wish I got to see all these things like carpet bagger does.😊

i love my state

Hello! You caught the city on a good day! Everything looks so beautiful and clean! LOL I hope you enjoyed your stay here! Feel free to come back! I'm not a tour guide by any means, but I'm a Nawlins native and lived my whole 53 years here. If you or any of your viewers come down and need suggestions for where to stay, where to go, where to eat, what to see, etc, let me know!!! And by the way, St Roch is pronounced as Saint Rock. Calliope St is pronounced Cali Ope. By the way, I must have PTSD... all parts of your video that has to do with Katrina brought back some bad memories... Thank you for complimenting my city!!! BTW, I have Marie Laveau's ORIGINAL "Black Cat Ju Ju". A lady named Marlene bought Marie Laveau's house to turn it into a bar. The Voodoo Lounge. After Katrina, we had to gut the building and remodel. We found a wooden box under the floorboards. We thought it was Marie Laveau's hidden fortune of gold! When we opened the box (crypt) Marie Laveau's precious pet cat was in it as a perfect mummy!!! Let me upload some pics and try to edit a link. Also, I made a plexiglass display case where Marie Laveau's cat was displayed at the Voodoo Lounge. That property changed ownership again, and the cat is supposed to be on display at Marlene's new bar - The Voodoo 2 Lounge.

The cemetery reminds me of the one from the walking dead saints and sinners

Very interesting video. I never knew how a cript worked until you explained it, very interesting, mostly morbid but interesting. When you said "I could weep over these oysters." 🤣 That made me laugh!

Thanks for visiting the attractions that are probably overlooked by most tourist media. Respect for the flood museum. A complex city of contrasts, deeper than us outsiders can know I think.

Very fascinating

Come 3 hours east to the beach in Pensacola Florida! 😎👣

Seriously!! 🤩 funny!! The Pope with the two small children,…@12:29

Another patron Saint of the handicapped is Saint Giles, who is my patron Saint so his name is a part of my name. That food looked so seriously good it was making my tummy growl.

Great video. I've been to Nola several times and have never taken the time to visits the spots you went to....great ideas for my next trip to Nola. The NOMA in Nola is awesome to visit if you haven't been. BTW, where did you get your hat? I LOVE IT!

The guy with the dogs and bunny: adorable

Thank you for all that you do! I really enjoy your videos.

I absolutely LOVE the opossum. It's a shame you have to go on these travels solo. God bless and keep you safe.💫

12:00 One of the most awkward encounters I've seen.

You gave so many good descriptions of here. I’m going to check out some of your other videos. I really like the way that you describe stuff. You have a cool style. I’m really glad that we met. Somebody else pointed me to this video.

I'm headed down for the first time next week. We have that same Joan of Arc statue in Philadelphia.

New Orleans seems really cool. My parents have been before I was born.

wow so cool city i rember the flood so sad ty for showing this video i hear on the news tv news bad weather snow on the east coast keep save out there this weekend

Damn alligator ate a lot of black soul food that week

My inlaws live in river ridge, la just right outside of nola. My husband and I live in wisconsin. I have been there in nola about 3 times

Especially the food yum yum

I like how you avoided saying people rubbed Jacques the butchers meat 🤣

So excited im headed to new orleans in March!
