On the evening of Wednesday, January 17th, 1996, a cold front in North Texas brought in a major thunderstorm system. Arlington, Texas got drenched. At about 11:30 PM, when the rain stopped, a Forest Ridge Apartments resident took his small terrier out for a walk. When the dog became agitated at the creek near the complex, the man walked down to check it out. To his horror, a small, female body was in the water facedown. He knew who it was. The next couple days, the Arlington Police and the Amber Hagerman Taskforce scrambled to find out how the body got there and who might be responsible.   If you have any information about the abduction and murder of Amber Rene Hagerman, please call the Arlington Police at (817)459-5772.

From interest rates and affordability to why waiting for the “perfect moment” rarely works out in DFW, this conversation is all about helping you think clearly instead of emotionally. We also dig into some big ideas being discussed around housing affordability, what changes might be coming, and why early 2026 could be a meaningful window for people who've been sitting on the sidelines. Plus, Todd pulls back the curtain on how his team approaches selling a home in today's market using West Richardson as a real-world example, and why understanding the buyer, the neighborhood, and the story matters more than ever. If you're thinking about buying, selling, downsizing, upsizing, investing, or you just want to understand what's really happening in the DFW housing market (without the noise), this episode is for you. And if you want personal guidance - not pressure - you can always reach out for a free strategy session to talk through your situation, your goals, and the timing that actually makes sense for you.

Gov. Greg Abbott said Tuesday that Dallas leaders were responsible for AT&T's decision to relocate its headquarters from downtown Dallas to Plano, blaming what he called the city's failure to fully fund and staff its police department. In other news, a Texas A&M professor has been told not to teach certain writings from Plato, a staple in introductory philosophy courses, because they may violate the university system's new rules against “advocating” race or gender ideology, or topics concerning sexual orientation, in core classes; a shooting in northwest Dallas last week that left one woman dead and injured her husband stemmed from a dating app meetup; and Salad and Go will close all remaining locations in Texas and Oklahoma, which includes the 25 locations still operating in North Texas and the seven in Oklahoma.

AT&T will build its new global headquarters in Plano, leaving questions about the future of its massive real estate holdings in downtown Dallas. Reacting to that news, Dallas leaders said downtown didn't fit with AT&T headquarter plans, preferring a “horizontal, suburban-style” headquarters campus with “significant acreage.” In other news,  the rainbow-colored steps at Oak Lawn United Methodist Church are safe for the next three years; and Taylor Sheridan, ever the prolific TV creator, will continue filming across North Texas in January.

This episode is officially a GOOD NEWS ONLY show, and honestly… there's a lot to be excited about right now. We kick things off talking about how wild it feels to say 2026 out loud, then quickly get into why this year is shaping up to be one of the healthiest real estate markets DFW has seen in a long time. More inventory, more realistic sellers, more options for buyers, and a market that finally feels balanced instead of chaotic.If you've been wondering, “Is this finally a good time to buy?” or “Should we sell now or wait?” — we break down what's actually happening on the ground, without the fear-based headlines or hype.We also talk about:- Why a balanced market is secretly the best market for both buyers and sellers- What today's mortgage rates and potential Fed cuts could mean moving forward- Why investors (including first-timers) are quietly finding solid opportunities again- How rents have stabilized and what that means if you're renting or thinking about buyingAnd because this is DFW, we zoom out a little and talk about the World Cup coming to North Texas and why that's a huge win for the local economy, growth, and long-term real estate outlook.There's also a fun, unexpected detour into business lessons from a visit to Chick-fil-A's headquarters — covering leadership, simplicity, customer trust, and why doing the basics really well still wins.We wrap things up by talking lifestyle: big backyard properties, acreage, dream neighborhoods, and why sometimes the best move isn't out of DFW... it's just to a different part of it.If 2026 is the year you want clarity instead of confusion around real estate, this episode is for you.If you want to sit down for a free, no-pressure real estate strategy session, you can call or text 214-310-0008, or find us online at toddtramonteteam.com.

This week, an interview we just conducted with Madeleine Wattenbarger and Axel Hernández of the Cooperativa de Periodismo in Mexico and Ambar Ruiz of Radio Zapote about the case of autonomous resistance and repression in the Mazateca community of Eloxochitlán de Flores Magón in Oaxaca, Mexico, so named for being the birthplace of the Cipriano Ricardo Flores Magón, revolutionary Mexican anarchist who was murdered by medical neglect by the US prison system in 1922 (check out our 2022 episode on the history). We talk about the rise to economic and political power of the family of Manuel Zepeda and his daughter Elena, their weaponization of the judiciary against community defenders resisting a hijacking in 2014 of the traditional community assembly and the years of organizing by Mazateca women whose loved ones face long prison sentences. We also speak about the case of Miguel Peralta, a Mazateca anarchist challenging his 5 decade sentence related to this case, as well as the recent murder by medical neglect while in prison of militant anarcho-punk Yorch Esquivel at the hands of the Mexican state at the behest of UNAM.

He's still lacking access to an ADA-accessible bathroom and shower unit and has not had his property or commissary card returned. According to his supporters, Xinachtli is still experiencing weakness in his legs and has now been forced back into a completely inaccessible space, where he faces a serious risk of another life-threatening fall or injury. Xinachtli's supporters demand remains: Xinachtli must be moved out of McConnell into an ADA-accessible facility that can address his medical needs. McConnell has already proven it can't and won't provide adequate resources to care for Xinachtli in his current state. They are putting his life in danger.

Prisoners for Palestine Hunger Strike Continues Four members of the Prisoners for Palestine collective, which we covered in our November 30th 2025 episode, continue their hunger strike with 3 of them at around or beyond 60 days without food as of this recording.

Revolutionary Jamil Al-Amin, formerly known as H. Rap Brown, returned to the ancestors on November 23, 2025 after 25 years in federal prison. The Imam was convicted in 2002 for the murder of a sheriff's deputy and Al-Amin continued to be incarcerated despite the video-taped confession of another man with the means and the motivation for the killing. You can find a brief writeup and further readings, right before notes about the state murder by medical neglect of Yorch in the December 10th issue of In Contempt Stop Cop City RICO Dismissed Judge Farmer finally decided to dismiss the RICO charges against the 61 defendants in the Stop Cop City case on the grounds that they were filed improperly. This doesn't remove the domestic terrorism or arson charges against some remaining defendants, and the state says it will refile the RICO charges but for now that's a little off our comrades' plates.

The two friends from Massachusetts were accused of liberating hundreds of minks from a fur farm in PA that kills thousands of minks every season. As Phily Anarchist Black Cross says: There is a pretrial conference in February. After that will come trial. While this is big and exciting news, the case isn't over yet. Cara and Celeste still have many charges to fight. Trial will come with extra costs on top of the other legal fees.

We have been told by multiple lawyers this date is very unlikely to change. The North Texas federal court circuit in Fort Worth is well know for being fast and firm with trial dates. Also, Dario Sanchez's state trial is set for 1/12 in Johnson County. This is not a lot of time! We're calling on supporters everywhere to do everything you can to help the defendants get the best defense possible. That means continued fundraising for expert witnesses and other trial expenses, writing letters to keep their spirits up, and raising awareness to highlight the importance of this case. If you're able to come to DFW for the trial please do! We will have other concrete asks soon, so please stay tuned!
