Episode description

A bill in the Texas Legislature this past session would have created a grant program for emergency communication. It didn’t pass.

In the days since the deadly flooding, engineers have already modeled what happened on the Guadalupe River. What they say about how we should rebuild.

A harrowing story of survival: Our conversation with a woman at the center of the devastation and the person she says saved her family.

Hope House, a home for the profoundly disabled, was damaged by the storm in Liberty Hill. The loss they’ve suffered and the hope they hang onto.

And: Remembering a similar disaster on the Guadalupe back in 1987. We’ll talk with a local leader who helped in those rescue efforts.
