And now WRYAT is proud to present an exclusive Y'all Things Considered documentary.

My name is Ari R. Murrow.

I'm a radio journalist for WRYAT, and I recently moved to New Orleans from my hometown of Portland, Oregon.

I just bought a house in the residential mid-city area, and I've been very excited to settle in and see what all the Big Easy has in store for me.

While known for its round-the-clock nightlife, vibrant live music scene, and spicy singular cuisine, the only way to truly experience life in NOLA is by living life in NOLA, which many of its citizens have done their entire lives.

The New Orleans locals are not shy about showing their love for this city's authenticity, and it didn't take long for this new NOLA resident to notice how they show that love.

It's on display on the front porches of their houses every day, flapping in the form of an authentic New Orleans porch flag.

Thank you for listening.
