In today’s edition of “The Commuter Cut,” we hear Ernie, Frank, and Celeste’s conversation with former U.S. Representative Beto O’Rourke.

He discusses his Harris County town hall tonight, the Texas Legislature, and the Democratic party’s future. Plus, O’Rourke also responds to comments and questions from Hello Houston listeners.

Also, we hear our hosts share their weekly “Current Obsessions,” which is our regular Thursday feature where we share our pop culture recommendations.
