  • In Session: Farewell
    It's the final episode of In Session, and The Daily Texan's legislative reporters talk about drugs — both legal and illegal. The group also looks back on their semester and describes their legislative experience in three words or less. This podcast will no longer be in session, but the 86th Texas Legislature still is until the end of May. You can keep up with The Daily Texan's coverage in our paper, on our website, or through our Facebook group.
    Hosted by Sara Schleede. Featuring Chase Karacostas and Chad Lyle. Music by Blue Dot Sessions.

  • In Session: Unwritten Stories
    On this episode of In Session, The Daily Texan's legislative reporters talk about stories that didn't make it into the paper — whether due to a committee hearing cut short or a source that falls through. Such is the way with journalism. Also up for discussion: marijuana decriminalization (again) and digital driver licenses.
    Hosted by Sara Schleede. Featuring Katie Balevic and Chad Lyle. Music by Blue Dot Sessions.
