39 Wildfires, One Space Station, and Four Houstonians Doing Cool Things

First-time guest and journalist Claudia Kolker joins City Cast Host Lisa Gray and Lead Producer Dina Kesbeh to talk about the news of the week, from Russia’s uncertain future with the International Space Station to the refugee crisis and the Texas wildfires. We also had to mention some Houstonians doing cool things right now, like Douglas Mills, who wowed the judges with his audition on American Idol this week, and Brené Brown, whose HBO Max show based on her latest book, “Atlas of the Heart,” will be streaming March 31.

And here’s the DL on entrepreneur Krish Himmatramka from “Shark Tank.”
