In prolific replies, many readers contest that the audio clip of Emma Benoit is Creole. They say it's almost entirely French. Leo Sands (the NYT writer) piped up that in the full recording, Dr. Turner keeps encouraging her to go back to Creole. Benoit reverted to French in a formal setting.

“For linguists, the discovery sheds light on how Louisiana Creole emerged from its roots in chattel slavery, blending French, West African and Native American languages. The clips offer historians an unusually direct glimpse into the lives of the language’s long dead speakers”
