A lot can happen in a week. Some of it good. Some of it bad. Some of it downright ugly. When faced with intriguing developments in the week’s news, we turn to a rotating panel of “non-experts” to parse The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of it all.

This week, our panel weighs in on these stories:

• Katy’s Pride celebration being moved last-minute when the venue that had agreed to host it bowed to pressure brought by conservative leaders
• Some Texas airports deciding not to show a video featuring Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem blaming Democrats for the federal government shutdown, which may be contributing to delays at airport security
• A Michigan woman using Chat GPT to pick winning lottery numbers

Our panel of non-experts this week includes:

• Natalie Arceneaux, president of Arceneaux International Consulting
• Mustafa Tameez, media and public affairs consultant and the CEO of Outreach Strategists
• Marcus Davis, owner of the Breakfast Klub restaurant
