In parts of Texas, a kolache is about as common as a donut — but it's relatively unknown outside the Lone Star State. The kolache is a traditional Czech pastry made with a sweetened, yeasty dough and filled with either fruit, cheese or sausage. It got a foothold in Texas after a wave of Czech immigrants came to the state more than a century ago. This week, Alexa Lim, a producer on The Atlas Obscura Podcast, explores the Kolache Triangle, an area between San Antonio, Houston, and Dallas where you'll find some of the oldest and most popular kolache bakeries. Then, Dan heads to Brooklyn to meet a husband and wife duo who are bringing kolaches to the Big Apple with their bakery, Kings Kolache. And Dan brings along the most hardcore Texan he knows, to find out how these kolaches rank with the ones from back home.If you want to try some traditional Czech style kolaches, check out Helli's Goodies — they ship anywhere in the US!The Sporkful production team includes Dan Pashman, Emma Morgenstern, Andres O'Hara, Kameel Stanley, Jared O'Connell, and Giulia Leo.

This week, we're heading to the Lone Star State for a story that puts the “fun” in “funeral” and the “what the actual hell” in “criminal justice.” A Texas embalmer allegedly took anatomical revenge on a dead sex offender—and let's just say, the body wasn't the only thing getting stiff that day. It's a tale of postmortem payback, questionable ethics, and the kind of crime scene that makes even seasoned detectives say, “You know what? I'm good.” Grab your gloves—we're going elbow-deep into this one.

The city of Dallas is considering taking out a $1 billion loan to move forward with the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center project. Staff will brief the City Council Wednesday on the updates to the convention center plan. Also, after sitting through more than two months of auditions, training and performances, American Idol fans were minutes away from finding out the winner of season 23 when WFAA's Chief Meteorologist Pete Delkus appeared on screen shortly before 10 p.m., warning of severe weather — including possible tornadoes, thunderstorms and flash floods — in counties across the region. Frustrated viewers took to social media to express their displeasure;  Katy Perry's “Lifetimes” tour stop at American Airlines Center has been moved to Thursday night to accommodate the Dallas Stars and Edmonton Oilers' NHL playoff game; and whatever happened to your favorite Dallas restaurant?

On his tour of the Middle East, Trump lavishes praise on dictators—as they deposit bribes in his pocket. Republicans, in between defending Trump's jet grift, finalize more details of their "big beautiful bill," which, in addition to gutting Medicaid, now aims to cut food assistance, funding for Planned Parenthood, and Biden's clean energy tax credits. The Supreme Court hears arguments on two important, intertwined questions: whether Trump's executive order to end birthright citizenship is constitutional (it's not), and whether federal judges below the Supreme Court can issue nationwide injunctions. Jon and Dan react to the Solicitor General's clueless argument before the justices and new polling on Trump's "inoculation" against corruption attacks, and offer Democrats some advice on how to talk about the GOP's tax cuts. Then Jon sits down with long-time friend of the pod Beto O'Rourke to talk about Donald Trump, Joe Biden, and Beto's future in the Lone Star State. For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.
