This week’s news quiz was a honkin’ good time!

Joining hosts Jim Braude and Margery Eagan were the Red Flame Hunters, a youth oriented Mardi Gras Indian tribe in New Orleans, who are in town to participate in this weekend’s HONK! Festival.

After treating our listeners to a sneak preview of some of the songs they’ll be playing this weekend, Ed Buckner president and founder of the Original Big 7 Social Aid & Pleasure Club and New Orleans based artist Justin Cloud competed to see who was paying closer attention to the news this week.
