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:

• A million dollar winning lottery ticket goes unclaimed with the money reverting to the state
• A Houston woman pleading guilty to fraudulently obtaining over $600,000 in disaster relief

Our panel of non-experts this week includes:

• Raúl Ramos, associate professor of history at the University of Houston
• Vivian Ho, health economist at Rice University and Baylor College of Medicine
• Jessica Brown, co-director of Station Theater
