The Good, Bad and Ugly of This Week’s News
A lot can happen in a week. Some of it good. Some of it bad. Some of it downright ugly. When faced with intriguing developments in the week's news, we turn to our rotating panel of "non-experts" to parse The Good, The Bad and The Ugly of it all. This week our panel of non-experts examines: Texas doctor’s performing the world’s first womb transplants; reverse commuters to The Woodlands getting new bus service; and a dozen Houstonians making the list of the richest Americans. This week includes: Mustafa Tameez, Vlad Davidiuk and Monica Richart.
Hurricane Hunters
Plus: as Hurricane Matthew bears down on the southeastern coast, we revisit our conversation with the head of the Hurricane Hunters, a group that conducts tests for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
