Louisiana Uncovered

The stories behind the Pelican State that never made the postcard. Who ran it: the mob, the smugglers, the political machines and the company towns. Who built it: the oil, timber and sugar money that raised whole towns and then walked away. Who it made: the famous names every one of Louisiana's 64 parishes raised. And what it's becoming: the coast the Gulf is taking back and what a house here actually costs now. How we make every video: We start with the record. Court files, FBI releases, parish records, census data, state archives and published reporting. Every number gets a named, dated source. Every price is dated to the month. Legends get told as legends. If it can't be backed up, we say so. Every script is fact-checked before it's recorded. If you live here, grew up here, or are thinking about moving here, subscribe. New videos every week.
