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:

• Apple plans to build a 250,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Houston
• The 2026 Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo begins on Tuesday, March 4th

Our panel of non-experts this week includes:

• Vivian Ho, health economist at Rice University and Baylor College of Medicine
• Marco Roberts, chairman of the Texas Conservative Liberty Forum
• Lisa Falkenberg, Editor of Opinion (and soon-to-be Senior Columnist) for the Houston Chronicle
