Plus downtown Dallas is site to the largest conference dedicated to preventing crimes against children, Mattress Mack is giving away 400 mattresses to those impacted by July's flooding in Central Texas, the Rangers pull off another comeback thriller at home, and more!

This week on Chill Filtered, Bryan is out recovering from surgery, but Cole brings in a very special guest — Randall, The Whiskey Shaman himself! The two talk life, spirituality, and (of course) a whole lotta Wild Turkey. Why? Because the featured pour is an epic 1983 Wild Turkey 101, straight from a vintage decanter.   On Whiskey World News, Randall reads about a Central Texas distillery filing for bankruptcy, and the guys dive into what it means for the craft whiskey world. And on "What Whiskey Would You Choose?", Cole poses the question: What's your favorite whiskey that most people have never heard of?   An old-school pour, a fresh guest, and plenty of deep dives — this one's a vibe.

In this powerful episode, we sit down with leaders from the Central Texas Public Safety Commission (formerly the Greater Austin Crime Commission) to talk about their deep roots in Austin and their decades-long commitment to supporting public safety.Hear how the Commission works hand-in-hand with Austin Police, Fire, and EMS to fund critical equipment, advocate for mental health, and build lasting community partnerships. From riot shields to real estate, mental wellness to staffing challenges, nothing is off the table.Whether you're an Austinite or part of the national law enforcement community, this conversation offers a behind-the-scenes look at what it really takes to protect and serve in a growing, evolving city.

From the Austin Chamber to Austin Habitat for Humanity to her current role as CEO of C12, Phyllis has spent decades shaping leaders, championing purpose-driven growth, and making a meaningful difference across Central Texas and beyond. But this episode isn't just a walk through her résumé—it's a powerful reminder of what happens when faith and leadership collide.Phyllis shares:Her bold career pivots (and what guided them),Why C12 is rewriting the rules of executive leadership,How purpose and profit can coexist (beautifully),And what it takes to lead a company that reflects your values—not just your balance sheet.Whether you're a CEO, community builder, or just someone with a spark in your soul for something more—this one's for you.

As the recent deadly floods in Central Texas remind us, Nature bats last.  There seem to be a growing number of severe weather-related disasters that kill many people and lay waste to towns and communities.  But what happens after the floods, as communities make plans to repair the damages?  Why does rebuilding often become the trigger of intense and extended political and social struggle, sometimes lasting many years?  Dr. Ken Conca, Emeritus Professor of Environment, Development and Health at American University in Washington, DC, decided to follow the planning process in a flood-prone town in which he lived. He has just published After the Floods--The Search for Resilience in Ellicott City (Oxford University Press) a study that offers a blow-by-blow account of these struggles and elucidates his explanation for why the arise and persist, long after the water has vanished.Join host Ronnie Lipschutz for a conversation with Dr. Conca about his book and his broader conclusions about community planning for inclement weather and climate change, especially “after the floods.”

 “What makes someone instantly likable on and off the screen?”In this lively and heartwarming episode of The JB and Sandy Show, the guys sit down with the ever-charming Kristen Currie, morning meteorologist at KXAN, who's quickly become a fan favorite across Austin. Dubbed “Austin's New Girlfriend” by the show's hosts, Kristen opens up about her journey from Southern California to Central Texas, her love for local wine, and the authenticity that's made her a standout in the community. Listeners will enjoy:

On Friday's show: This week, experts from across Texas testified at a hearing on disaster preparedness and flooding in the wake of the deadly Central Texas floods. Among those who testified were representatives from Rice University's SSPEED Center, whose Jim Blackburn discusses how what happened in Central Texas relates to past storms here.Also this hour: A recent report from Bankrate ranked Texas near the bottom when it comes to the best states to retire. Why? And how does Houston stack up? We consider the pros and cons of retiring here.Then, from what used to be Houston's own Shipley's Do-Nuts being sold to a California company, to an ad campaign's play on words that has some worried about eugenics, this week's non-expert panel weighs in on The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of the week.And Hank, Peggy, and Bobby are back as King of the Hill returns after 15 years. Its showrunner Saladin Patterson talks about bringing back the beloved animated series and its depiction of small-town Texas life.

The Texas Legislature is nearing the end of the second week of the special session, but in this episode, we want to focus on the Thursday July 31 hearing in Kerrville, TX that focused on the July 4 flooding in Central Texas.  Our listeners will remember seeing the news from that day, and our prayers certainly go out to all who were impacted. We hope our prayers are also for leaders to do the work necessary to minimize loss in future disasters and to examine what went wrong and how we need to respond to keep this from happening again.  Joining us for the conversation are two Texas Impact staff leading our Climate Action Team, Rev. Dr. Becca Edwards, Texas Impact's Climate Action Fellow and Ava Burkhalter, an intern and researcher with the Southern Climate Impacts Planning Program.  To get involved and join the Climate Action Team visit the Action Center of our website. texasimpact.org/action-center Find out more about the Southern Climate Impacts Planning Program at www.southernclimate.org/about

Since the July 4th flooding in Central Texas and the Hill Country, volunteers have shown up in droves, at first overwhelming the extensive flooding scenes. Even though officials told folks to not just show up, hundreds of people did, both in and around Kerr County, and in Austin-area Sandy Creek. In this two-part episode, host Nikki DaVaughn first hears from Dayna De Hoyos, who lives in Comfort and volunteered dozens of hours to helping animals in the area; and then with Dwight Bailey, executive director of the Austin Disaster Relief Network, which organizes volunteers and is part of the official response to Central Texas disasters. Volunteers are still badly needed in Travis County and in the Kerrville area. And, in full disclosure, City Cast Austin recently donated $347 to ADRN during a membership drive.  Learn more about the sponsors of this July 30th episode: Framebridge Visit Port Aransas Want some more Austin news?

ProPublica Editor-at-Large Abrahm Lustgarten says the deadly flooding in Central Texas — which has killed over 130 people — underscores the dangers of a more volatile climate. Despite clear scientific evidence, the federal government has made cuts to research and forecasting, even threatening to dismantle FEMA. "We could talk about the floods in Texas as being an early warning sign of policy degradation to come," he says. "And we can expect to be more on our own and unsupported by those policies when these disasters continue to happen in the future.

A little over a week after the devastating floods in Central Texas, the death toll has reached more than 130 people — and the search for the missing continues.In the aftermath of the disaster, there have been mounting questions about how local officials handled the critical hours before and after the storm.

Authorities were still searching for survivors of the deadly July 4 floods in Central Texas when some Democrats started asking whether President Donald Trump's cuts at the National Weather Service exacerbated the disaster. Republicans, including Texas Senator Ted Cruz, accused those Democrats of “partisan finger-pointing.” How early is too early to talk about accountability? And is a nuanced policy conversation to prevent future tragedies possible in our political climate? Democratic strategist Rebecca Pearcey joins on the left, Republican strategist Mike Dubke joins on the right, and host David Greene holds down the center. Five years after the pandemic, American kids are still struggling in reading and math. Glimmers of hope are shining in red states like Louisiana, Alabama, and Mississippi. What are those states doing right? And are both parties too distracted by the culture war to focus on improving public education?Elon Musk threatened to start a third party if Trump passed his “Big Beautiful Bill.” The tech billionaire launched that party on X this week, saying he wants to represent the “80%” of Americans “in the middle.” Is anyone on the left or the right taking him seriously? Or is this just the latest development in his very-public spat with the president?

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, the catastrophic flash flooding along the Guadalupe River in Central Texas over the weekend claimed at least 91 lives, with around 20 people still missing. The disaster struck Kerr County, particularly devastating Camp Mystic, an all-girls Christian summer camp, where 27 campers and counselors, including young teens and the camp director, perished while trying to save others.  It's disgusting that the media and Democrats immediately politicize the event, blaming climate change or budget cuts. Also, there's a fake MAGA faction within conservatism that harbors dangerous ideologies, including affinities for Hitler sympathizers and antisemitic rhetoric. Darryl Cooper promotes revisionist history, such as portraying Churchill as a villain and Hitler as misunderstood. Later, the big, beautiful bill is not perfect, but it's pretty good. Republicans didn't have enough votes to cut anymore. Democrats are trying to tell you there are Medicaid cuts. No, it's cutting off people who shouldn't be getting Medicaid. A Convention of States can fix systemic spending issues. Afterward, a district judge in Boston issued a temporary restraining order blocking the defunding of Planned Parenthood as part of the big, beautiful bill President Trump signed. This ruling, which contradicts a Supreme Court decision limiting nationwide injunctions by lower courts, violates constitutional separation of powers. Congress and the president, as elected branches, have the authority to defund organizations, not a district judge.   Finally, FBI Director Kash Patel, Deputy Director Dan Bongino, and Attorney General Pam Bondi aren't covering up a Jeffrey Epstein "client list" after a DOJ-FBI memo denied its existence and reaffirmed Epstein's suicide. These three have integrity and lack a motive for a cover-up. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Today, we delve into the tragic flash floods that struck Central Texas, particularly Kerrville, where the Guadalupe River surged, claiming at least 82 lives, including many campers and counselors from Camp Mystic, a Christian girls' camp. We explore the devastating impact on families, the heroic sacrifices of rescuers, and the ongoing recovery efforts. We also address the politicization of the tragedy, debunking claims blaming budget cuts or climate change, and confront hateful social media narratives targeting the victims. Finally, we tackle the theological questions surrounding suffering and loss, offering a Christian perspective on finding hope and purpose amid such heartbreak.
