In the second hour of the show, our hosts Tessa Barrera and Ernie Manouse discuss some of today’s top stories, including more details released on the arrest of La Marque’s mayor for indecent exposure and the Supreme Court giving President Trump a win on his executive order aimed at restricting mail-in voting.
Then, we’re joined by Maisha Colter, CEO of Aid to Victims of Domestic Abuse (AVDA), and Board of Directors member Katie Tsuru, who both tell us about the non-profit’s mission to end family violence by advocating for victims while also promoting accountability for abusers.
And finally, we talk with storm chaser Reed Timmer and director Ken Cole, who both discuss the new documentary Never Stop Chasing, which explores Timmer’s decades-long career chasing some of the most extreme weather on the planet and what keeps pulling him back into chasing storms.
