Description:
On this Friday edition of The Texan Edge, Tweed Scott takes us back to the fall of 1900, when the proud city of Galveston faced nature’s fiercest test. The hurricane that tore through the island remains the deadliest natural disaster in American history—but this story isn’t just about tragedy. It’s about the unshakable spirit of Texans who refused to surrender. From the rubble, Galveston rose again—higher, stronger, and more determined than ever. Tweed reminds us that life’s storms don’t define us—it’s how we rebuild that shows our true grit. 

Episode Notes: 

  • Historical Focus: The Great Galveston Hurricane of 1900
  • Theme: Resilience, renewal, and the power of rebuilding after devastation
  • Takeaway: Strength doesn’t shout—it rebuilds. When life knocks you down, build your own seawall one act of courage at a time.
  • Closing Thought: “We don’t measure character by what happens to us, but by what happens after.”
  • Next Episode: Tweed will return Monday with more Texas-sized inspiration and wisdom.

 

This isn't just a podcast, it's a Texas state of mind.
