The Think Brazos Podcast

This week, we are honored to sit down with a true Brazos Valley icon: Scott DeLucia. After an unbelievable 59-year career in local radio, Scott recently retired from WTAW’s morning lineup.

In this wide-ranging conversation, Scott brings his decades of institutional knowledge to the table. He shares incredible behind-the-scenes stories of broadcasting through the community's most defining moments—from anchoring coverage of the 1999 Aggie Bonfire collapse to being live on the air with our congressman during the attacks on 9/11.

But we don't just look back. Scott gives his unfiltered thoughts on the current state of Bryan-College Station, including soaring municipal budgets, property tax concerns, and the critical need for neighborhood integrity and smart housing density. Plus, he shares why he is a long-time advocate for B/CS Habitat for Humanity and the power of "sweat equity."

Whether you’ve listened to Scott for years or you care deeply about the local policies shaping the future of Bryan and College Station, this episode is a must-listen.
