Kevin Lin is the co-founder of Twitch and the founder of MetaTheory. He’s talked about the tech industry in many interviews before, so we asked him about his hometown, New Orleans, instead. Kevin shares with us how to make gumbo, argues for the best fried-chicken brand, and tells us how New Orleans came to rebuild itself after Hurricane Katrina.

Julienne Lauler is a Public Diplomacy Officer at AIT. She’s spent time in Haiti and speaks a bit of Creole. She’s only been to New Orleans once as a teenager but is eager to visit again.
