This week, Only Good Vibes News Network is live from Paris with a special reunion. Leroy "Whistle Monsta" Mitchell sits down with Jared Bajoie (aka Shecky), OGVNN's very first international listener and a longtime friend from Leroy's New Orleans days. Shecky's life reads like the painting he says he's always working on. Born in Baton Rouge, he made his way to New Orleans, then in 1997, at just 25 years old, picked up and moved to Barcelona, Spain, staying seven years chasing what he calls "new colors on the palette." From there it was a year in Puerto Rico, 14 years back home in New Orleans, and now a new chapter in Lunéville, a small town in northeastern France. As an artist, Shecky is known for his exquisite, razor-straight lines, and he's painted Leroy for years. This episode marks their first time reuniting in person since 2021, timed to a Fourth of July collaboration between France and Louisiana. The conversation opens with the show's signature Zen card pull (inner peace and meditation this week) before diving into Shecky's travels, his childhood fascination with Europe, and why small-town French life feels like home. Things heat up when talk turns to sports, Shecky delivers his Saints prediction (12-5, playoff bound), and talks World Cup. As always, Leroy closes with the Big Six reminder: empathy, humility, and compassion for yourself first, and always leave the world better than you found it.

Replay: Pete Murano

Pete Murano was raised all across America. Born in the Northeast, he moved to St. Louis and finally settled in New Orleans, Louisiana. He developed an attachment to an equally nomadic music form, the blues, at an early age. Starting on saxophone at age 11, he began teaching himself to play guitar as a teenager. Murano's music then underwent a natural evolution as he began to explore R&B and rock. Finding himself drawn to the sights and sounds of the Crescent City, Murano soon relocated to New Orleans. The next piece of his musical maturation would stem directly from the influence of his new home. Murano began learning the standards, becoming a working musician in the dimly lit clubs of the city's fabled Frenchmen street. In 2003, Murano joined forces with Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue. Here, he developed a sound that was all his own, combining elements of rock, funk, and R&B. With Shorty, Murano has written, recorded, and toured the world extensively. His sound on guitar is often raw and distorted, yet soulful. Now, on his first solo release, he embraces that sound as it vibrates into the world. Pete also runs the Apollo Clinic which brings local youth into the studio to learn about the process of making music alongside Grammy nominated and Grammy award winning musicians and engineers.
