Hello Houston: Where Houston Talks!
On today’s Hello Houston, we begin the show by listening to the newest episode of University of Houston political science professor and Party Politics co-host Brandon Rottinghaus‘ series Texperts, in which he explains what county attorneys do and the role they play in elections.
Then, we hear Frank and Celeste’s conversation with actor, comedian, and screenwriter Mae Martin ahead of their upcoming show this Friday at the Cullen Performing Arts Center.

In the second hour of the show, we’re joined by Eric Broussard, curator of the Bryan Museum in Galveston, who tells us all about their large collection of historical artifacts, documents, and artwork relating to Texas and the American West.
Also, the Hello Houston team and listeners share the things they’ve been obsessed with lately for our regular Thursday feature, Current Obsessions.
Plus, at the top of each hour, Ernie Manouse talks about today’s top stories, including a new poll showing Jasmine Crockett leading over James Talarico, which he discusses with HPM’s politics and government reporter Andrew Schneider, and U.S. Rep. Tony Gonzales saying he will not resign despite the release of explicit text messages between him and a former aide, which he discusses with Texas Tribune reporter Eleanor Klibanoff.
