The Last Ride: Documenting the Death of Six Flags New Orleans with Jason Lanier
In this emotional episode of No Tracers, I sit down with renowned photographer and urban explorer Jason Lanier, who was granted rare access to document the haunting decay and final demolition of Six Flags New Orleans; one of America's most infamous abandoned amusement parks. As the park’s unofficial "resident photographer," Jason captured the soul of an iconic place frozen in time, then stood witness as it was slowly torn apart.
We talk about what it was like to walk through the remains of roller coasters and water rides, the deep sadness and guilt that comes with watching history vanish, and the importance of documenting urban ruins before they're lost forever.
This one is raw, real, and a farewell letter to a place that’s become legend in the urbex world.

And he pulled up one day and we were chatting about the house and he's interested only in an investment property. He's not from here. And that's okay. But he said if this was in Franklin or Williamson County, it would already be a museum. And he's not wrong. The owner is in it for just an investment. And I'm afraid that it's going to be lost here pretty soon. Unless somebody has some deep pockets to come back and Yeah. Save it. Yeah. I know that, you know, I, uh, interviewed a guy on here many years ago. […]
