On Friday's show: A record number of Harris County residents applied for FEMA aid after Hurricane Beryl. We learn more about that revelation from the Houston Chronicle's Rebekah Ward.

Also this hour: From the Houston area now being home to the third-largest statue in the country (but not without a little controversy), to a draft brochure advertising an opening for the position of Dallas city manager that featured a photo of Houston on its cover, we discuss The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of the week.

And we learn about this weekend's Houston Black Dance Festival, which celebrates traditions of African and diasporic dance.
