On Friday's show: We learn about Elon Musk's involvement in a $760 million plan to dig tunnels under Houston to help alleviate future flooding. Would it be worth the cost? Investigative reporter Lauren McGaughy from the Texas Newsroom brings us the details.
Also this hour: On this date 20 years ago, Hurricane Katrina made landfall on Louisiana causing devastation in that state, including New Orleans. In the days and months after, many evacuees sought refuge in our city, and many made it their new home. We reflect on how those evacuees changed Houston — and how Houston changed them.
And two local photo journalists recall their experience covering the aftermath of the storm in the immediate days after it struck and share some of the photos from that disaster that had the greatest impact on them -- and the world.
And, from the Astros suing the Harris County Appraisal District for trying to levy property taxes against Daikin Park, to the co-owner of a Houston gun store being prohibited from owning or using a firearm, our panel of “non-experts” breaks down The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of the week.
