What's Up in The Woodlands
A weekly (when I have my act together) podcast all about The Woodlands, TX and the surrounding area (Spring, Shenandoah, Tomball, Conroe, etc (and maybe even some Houston stuff too!)). I may be biased because I live here, but The Woodlands is my favorite part of Texas. If you live, work, are from, just visiting, or in any other way enjoying the area, then this podcast is for you! A new episode will be published every Sunday (hopefully); announcing upcoming events, discussing existing institutions, and interacting with local residents and businesses.

Podcast sponsors: Grasten Power Technologies, your local backup generator dealer and repairs specialists! https://grastengenerators.com P&P Oil & Gas Solutions, your total back-office outsourcing solution for upstream and midstream companies! https://ppogs.com

I can spout off stats and read a carefully worded "About" on https://www.thewoodlandstownship-tx.gov/ or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Woodlands,_Texas - but what is The Woodlands to me?
It is a safe place to raise a family, an aesthetically pleasing place, a community of neighbors, and an econimic boon to the surrounding area. Those aren't all it is, but that's what was on my mind when I recorded this.

It's the midterms! There's several positions up this round, including for the Township Board. Of course a hot topic is still incorporation, which isn't on this ballot, but people who support it and oppose it are.

Hey everybody!
I'm going to try doing this podcast again, but a little differently, maybe a lot differently.
New episodes will come out on a Sunday once a month, and be focused on one or two core issues affecting The Woodlands, TX and the people who live, work, and enjoy life there.
