In the House: The back-to-school (?!) episode
In our "In the House" series, we explore Texas-specific tidbits about a timely topic + how we can have a flipping good time while flipping this state. In this episode, we get schooled on education in Texas as State House candidates Celina Montoya and Angela Brewer battle it out in our quiz. They're so dang smart, y'all.
