Hello Houston: Where Houston Talks!

On today’s Hello Houston, Ernie, Frank, and Celeste talk with former U.S. Representative Colin Allred at the top of the first hour, who shares his thoughts on the more than 50 Texas House Democrats that have broken quorum by leaving the state to block congressional redistricting.

Also, in the show’s first hour, Richard Elbein, CEO of the Alzheimer’s Association‘s Houston Chapter, tells us about some major advances in their fight against the disease, and we explore how workplace anxiety affects our performance and how to manage it better with Baylor College of Medicine’s Dr. Asim Shah.

Then, in the second hour, our hosts discuss a new policy that prohibits students on every HISD campus from using their cell phone during the school day starting this upcoming school year. Following that, we receive some helpful tips to get your family school-ready with Dr. Mehul Patel, a pediatrician with Memorial Hermann.

Plus, we also hear from journalist and Texas Monthly contributor Christopher Hooks, who breaks down how state Republican lawmakers are now making Texas more like California despite years of outspoken disdain for the Golden State.
