This felt like a long week as Texas politics continue to protect the wrong things. 

Jimmy and EJ start the pod with three short stories which include the TxDOT I-30W study, Fort Worth's PR contract, and Councilwomen Biven's frustration over how $28 million in stimulus spending was introduced to the council.

The big story was highlighting the ramifications of Roe v Wade in Texas and exploring what to do next.

Here is a list of the stories mentioned:
