On April 20th, the Deepwater Horizon oil rig exploded, killing eleven workers and threatening wildlife throughout the Gulf of Mexico. RICHARD CHARTER is a Senior Policy Advisor for the Marine Programs at Defenders of Wildlife and has more than 25 years of experience working on offshore drilling issues and oil spill crises. JACQUELINE SAVITZ is a Senior Marine Scientist for Oceana where she focuses on toxicology. They'll discuss the rules and regulations for maintaining an offshore oil rig, the ongoing recovery effort, and the effect of the leak on the environment.
Last month, Bob went to New Orleans for the first weekend of the city's annual JAZZ AND HERITAGE FESTIVAL. Today, we offer a sampling of the 12 interviews which range from up-and-coming locals, like Stanton Moore and Trombone Shorty, to established New Orleans royalty, like Allen Toussaint and Irma Thomas, to foreign musicians who came to visit and never left, like Jon Cleary, Anders Osborne and Theresa Andersson. We'll bring you these interviews from now until the end of July.
We begin our JAZZ AND HERITAGE FESTIVAL SERIES with Bob's conversation back stage at the Blues Tent with New Orleans native DR. JOHN.
Bob Edwards Weekend is a two-hour interview showcase, in which celebrated host Bob Edwards highlights the life and work of interesting people, from newsmakers, historians, and authors to artists, actors, and regular folks too.
