On Friday’s show: While Houston ISD voters are contemplating whether to approve a record-setting bond for their school district, Fort Bend ISD is revising plans for an over-budget bond approved there last year. We discuss both with Houston Public Media’s Adam Zuvanich and Natalie Weber.
Also this hour: From a Missouri woman using an Apple AirTag to track a stolen campaign sign taken from her yard and shaming the thief on social media, to the Yankees’ general manager saying his team’s World Series drought should’ve ended in 2017, our non-experts discuss The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of the week.
Then, we reflect on the life and career of Rockets legend Hakeem Olajuwon with reporter Mirin Fader, author of Dream: The Life and Legacy of Hakeem Olajuwon.
And we visit the Wings Over Houston air show at Ellington Field where a local pilot explains what it’s like re-enacting the attack on Pearl Harbor flying vintage World War II aircraft.
Audio from today’s show will be available after 11 a.m. CT. We also offer a free podcast here, on iTunes, Stitcher and other apps.
