Hello Houston – The Commuter Cut (July 21, 2025)

In today's edition of "The Commuter Cut", our hosts talk with energy economist and fellow at the University of Houston, Ed Hirs, who breaks down how the "One Big Beautiful Bill" could reshape the future of clean energy, fossil fuels, and the billions of dollars flowing through both.

Then, we hear from Juan Garcia, Chairman of the Harris County Houston Sports Authority, who discusses Houston hosting this week's AAU Junior Olympic Games, which is the largest youth multi-sport event in the United States.

Also, Congressman Randy Weber joins in to tell us about his new bipartisan legislation to enhance our weather forecasting capabilities, and to close the show, graduate student Kayla Clark discusses a Rice University study that looks at how music affects memory.
