Houston Matters

On Friday's show: Dominic Anthony Walsh joins us to discuss Thursday’s sick out by some HISD teachers protesting reforms put in place by the state-appointed superintendent and board. Also this hour: Deryl Tumlinson of CenterPoint Energy explains how electric poles, power lines, and other elements of Houston’s electric delivery system are maintained. Then, our panel of non-experts breaks down The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of the week. And, with the annual Mecum Auction taking place this weekend at NRG Center, we revisit a conversation with the company's CEO, who says most people bidding to buy a classic car at the event are doing so for reasons far deeper than just collecting.
