On Thursday's show: Houston City Council Member Letitia Plummer weighs in on the sudden retirement of HPD Chief Troy Finner.
Also this hour: We talk with actor Joe Pantoliano, aka "Joey Pants." The longtime actor, who's known for roles in The Sopranos, The Matrix, and The Fugitive, is in Houston to speak at an event with The Menninger Clinic. We talk with him about his life, career, and mental health journey.
And, ahead of another Houston Symphony performance of Harry Potter music, we discuss the enduring impact of John Williams’ film scores and why symphonies have taken to performing concerts of his music in sync with the movies he’s written it all for.
