Liss 'N Kristi celebrate a black tie Saturday morning in the company of two Texan style, media and society influencers: Society Texas and The Society Diaries alum, and host of the Fun In Fundraising podcast Rob Giardinelli; and Brilliant, The Society Diaries and Society Texas founding Editor-in-Chief Lance Avery Morgan.

The wide-ranging conversation starts with some of Kristi's encounters as a reporter, including her "funeral-crashing" exploits undercover. They talk about the changing social dynamics of Texas philanthropy, and a big fund-raising milestone for Kristi's national non-profit, k9s4Cops.org.
