Their concern: it would shut down part of Polk Street, a busy street in downtown and their key access into downtown. Host Raheel Ramzanali is bringing on Ryan Nickerson, quality of life reporter at the Houston Chronicle, and Amy Erickson, organizer with People for Polk, about why East End residents are so concerned, how Houston decides when to abandon a public street, and what else is at stake.  Stories we talked about on today's episode:  How Houston decides when to abandon public streets and alleys Houston's East End residents concerned about closure of Polk Street for convention center expansion Why this busy downtown Houston street is being abandoned by the city Houston's GRB South will feature the largest ballroom in Texas, but not everyone is excited What impacts your quality of life the most in Houston?

A great idea is just the beginning. How do you turn it into something bigger?Dr. Paul Cherukuri, Rice University's first vice president for innovation and chief innovation officer, works with academics and industry titans to remove roadblocks for budding entrepreneurs and help cement Houston and Rice as top hubs for innovation. Paul joins Owl Have You Know host Maya Pomroy '22 to chat about how the Office of Innovation is paving the way for cutting-edge, world-changing ideas.They also discuss The Ion, Rice's Midtown hub for entrepreneurship, why Paul chose to earn a Ph.D. in chemistry at Rice, and his path to leading innovation at the university.Episode Guide:01:10 Dr. Cherukuri's Journey to Rice04:47 The Impact of Rice University06:03 Building the Office of Innovation08:33 Challenges and Opportunities in Innovation12:52 Fostering Entrepreneurship at Rice16:05 Exciting Student Projects17:59 Small Business Innovation and Nexus Launch18:50 The Ion: Houston's Innovation Hub19:43 Building an Innovation Ecosystem23:45 Advice for Aspiring Entrepreneurs28:42 The Exciting and Future Prospects on Rice's HorizonOwl Have You Know is a production of Rice Business and is produced by University FM.Episode Quotes:On empowering the entrepreneurial spirit and taking calculated risks14:20: [Maya Pomroy] You've taken a lot of calculated risks in your life for things that you've done, and to translate that to others, how do you do that?14:55:[Dr. Paul Cherukuri] There are some people who just naturally resonate with the idea of doing it, right? The entrepreneurial spirit is within them and it's active, right?  Then there are some people who are sort of suppressed, repressed, who have always wanted to do it and weren't sure if that was allowed, right? Or if that was fostered for their career. And what we provide is the capability and also the inspiration that this is not only possible, it's welcomed. It's something that we actually want to promote, right?The Ion represents Rice's ability to create a community for innovators23:11: When you find your tribe, it's very, very different, and I think that The Ion represents that ability for us to concentrate people so they can meet each other. But then also provide resources, both with the corporates and the venture capitalists that are in the building.And then we're bringing in government and others to really kind of subsidize things and help us grow these companies, and then not only the companies, but grow the community. And that's what The Ion represents, right? So it is, I think, a magical place in many ways. If you go in there, there is an energy. There's a buzz that has happened now.How Houston's lack of zoning laws fuels growth and connection21:41: One of the beautiful things I think about Houston is we get dinged for not having zoning laws, but I actually think it's a great thing. And it has allowed us to economically grow, thrive, and expand the city. The problem with the expansion of the city is people density, right? So how do you get people to be right next to each other? Because that's when things start to magically happen, right? You got to get close to others.Show Links: TranscriptGuest Profiles:Paul Cherukuri | Rice Business

How is the Rice Architecture department preparing its students for the difficult challenges of today and the unknown urban challenges of the future? What is a megalopolitan city and how should design choices shift when dealing with multiple city centers? How can architects affect car use in cities?Let us know you're listening by filling out this form. We will be sending listeners Beyond the Hedges Swag every month.This episode was recorded live at Rice University's Alumni Weekend, and features host David Mansouri conversing with Troy Schaum. Troy is an associate professor in architecture at Rice and principal architect at SCHAUM Architects. Troy and host David Mansouri discuss architectural philosophy, Troy's journey into the field, and his work on significant projects such as the White Oak Music Hall. Troy provides insights into the concept of post-megalopolitan cities and how it shapes his research and design work. Additionally, the episode highlights how climate change influences current architectural practices and how that is reflected in the evolving nature of Rice's architecture program.Troy then takes questions from the live audience.Episode Guide:01:44 Troy's Journey Into Architecture05:16 Exploring the Concept of Post-Megalopolitan City10:59 Buildings That Catch Troy's Eye14:34 Impact of Climate Change on Architecture19:29 Teaching the Next Generation of Architects at Rice28:05 Rapid Fire Questions30:06 Audience Q&A Session39:06 Closing RemarksBeyond The Hedges is a production of the Office of Alumni Relations at Rice University and is produced by University FM.Show Links:Rice ArchitectureRice AlumniAssociation of Rice Alumni | FacebookRice Alumni (@ricealumni) | X (Twitter)Association of Rice Alumni (@ricealumni) | Instagram Host Profiles:David Mansouri | LinkedInDavid Mansouri '07 | Alumni | Rice UniversityDavid Mansouri (@davemansouri) | XDavid Mansouri | TNScoreGuest Profiles:Faculty Profile at RiceSCHAUMarchitects.comLinkedInInstagramEpisode Quotes:How can we make Houston's diversity visible beyond outdated city models?09:56: Houston people come here and they say, “Well, where can I go and walk around and just see what's going on?” And you can't do that in Houston in the same way you could in a lot of cities. And so, that's what I mean by representational problem. How do you make the city that does exist, that we know is this diverse, lively, engaged place? How do we make it visible so we can actually act on it in intelligent ways and not just try to replicate historical models that don't necessarily apply?How Houston became a model for post-war car-centric urbanism06:49: Houston is one of the paradigmatic cities, one of the paradigms of urbanism when it comes to thinking about the post-war city and how we organize our lives that essentially means around the car.How totalization shapes architects at Rice24:27: Graduate undergraduates would work together, and they would solve complex problems in very highly speculative but also highly technically resolved ways. And it was amazing; we won many awards for this and got a lot of attention for it. And maybe there's a book that compiled and published about this with our collaborators that looks at this, and that's kind of magic alchemy of architecture—the way in which all of these different decisions that seem to be playing out moment to moment and all the contingencies or decisions you make come together to form a kind of complete work. And each time, it's a little bit different, but you have to make students that aren't afraid of that, or make it so students feel comfortable engaging in that space of not knowing, knowing who they can ask, knowing how to formulate a question, knowing how to do their project when they're confronted with contingency that they haven't fully appreciated far along in the project.

Elmer Wayne Henley, Jr. was only fourteen when he first became entangled with serial rapist and murderer Dean Corll in 1971. Fellow Houston, Texas, teenager David Brooks had already been ensnared by the charming older man, bribed with cash to help lure boys to Corll's home. When Henley unwittingly entered the trap, Corll evidently sensed he'd be of more use as a second accomplice than another victim. He baited Henley with the same deal he'd given Brooks: $200 for each boy they could bring him. Henley didn't understand the full extent of what he had signed up for at first. But once he started, Corll convinced him that he had crossed the line of no return and had to not only procure boys but help kill them and dispose of the bodies, as well. When Henley first took a life, he lost his moral base. He felt doomed. By the time he was seventeen, he'd helped with multiple murders and believed he'd be killed, too. But on August 8, 1973, he picked up a gun and shot Corll. When he turned himself in, Henley showed police where he and Brooks had buried Corll's victims in mass graves. Twenty-eight bodies were recovered―most of them boys from Henley's neighborhood―making this the worst case of serial murder in America at the time. The case reveals gross failures in the way cops handled parents' pleas to look for their missing sons and how law enforcement possibly protected a larger conspiracy. The Serial Killer's Apprentice tells the story of Corll and his accomplices in its fullest form to date. It also explores the concept of “mur-dar” (the predator's instinct for exploitable kids), current neuroscience about adolescent brain vulnerabilities, the role of compartmentalization, the dynamic of a murder apprenticeship, and how tales like Henley's can aid with early intervention. Despite his youth and cooperation, Henley went to trial and received six life sentences. He's now sixty-five and has a sense of perspective about how adult predators can turn formerly good kids into criminals. Unexpectedly, he's willing to talk. This book is his warning and the story of the unspeakable evil and sorrow that befell Houston in the early 1970s.

  While the History Fangirl Podcast has typically gone around the world to find the most fascinating stories, today we're taking our eyes off the Earth and casting our gaze starward. Today's guest is Valerie Stimac, an accomplished travel writer in her own right, who has started a unique site at spacetravelguide.com. While she isn't quite making recommendations for the burgeoning field of travel into space, Valerie does specialize in covering travel destinations that are of interest to space geeks around the world. In this week's episode we talk about the history of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, how Houston became such an important part of its mission, and what happened on the ground during the most dramatic moments in American space exploration. We have liftoff Valerie provides the Cliffs Notes version of NASA history in this week's episode of the History Fangirl Podcast, starting with its founding in 1958, following President Dwight D. Eisenhower's signing of the National Aeronautics and Space Act. NASA started with a budget of about $100 million and three large facilities and two small research facilities. But in 1963, it was clear those facilities would not be able to handle all of the development that needed to happen (Langley Aeronautical Laboratory in Virginia you may remember from the movie Hidden Figures), which led to the establishment of what was eventually called Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas. Houston, we have a space center When the U.S. federal government was looking for a city where they could build a mission-critical space center, it wasn't too unlike the way corporations now search for their headquarters. They had various cities wooing them, and NASA factored in several different facets when conducting their search: it had to be near a big city, it had to be near a large university with resources for research, etc. And it had to be away from other NASA centers around D.C. and Florida. We couldn't have all of our brain trust in one place for, well, safety reasons. Phoning home If you quote or paraphrase any astronaut (as I did above), you're likely quoting mission control in Houston, or something an astronaut said to them. “Houston, the eagle has landed,” “Houston, we have a problem”; those are quotes from two different Apollo missions. As Valerie tells me in this episode, with all manned spacecraft being operated from Houston, some of the most iconic moments in space have filtered through Johnson Space Center. Of course Johnson is much more than mission control, there are numerous buildings in the complex that includes engineering and simulation and more, all of which can be called upon to help solve problems in space. Mission control The Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas is an amazing place that for the last 60 years has launched some of the most incredible feats of human ingenuity, and helped those feats stay on track once they're out of our atmosphere. As Valerie tells me in this episode, you can actually visit the historic mission control center where NASA staffers on the ground kept Apollo astronauts in the heavens alive. But that's just the beginning of what you can see there. It's a truly rare historic site, and even if you don't think of Houston as a historic city, the space center is a must-see.
