On Wednesday's show: A five-year audit found that Houston ISD had a $300 million surplus. So, why does the district continue to cut spending?

Also this hour: We discuss the latest developments in local, state, and national politics in our weekly political roundup, including the politics of gasoline. We discuss why the Biden administration is temporarily allowing E15 ethanol blend gas to be sold this summer, when it’s usually banned under the Clean Air Act.

Then, we reflect on the contributions women have made -- and continue to make -- in the field of space travel and exploration, specifically at NASA's Johnson Space Center. We talk with the space center's historian, Jennifer Ross-Nazzal, author of Making Space for Women.

And we visit Houston's William Price Distilling to learn how the startup had to pivot two years ago and make something they’d never intended.
