ZacCast

Pat and Chad are back for the first episode of 2024. After some throat-clearing chit chat, we discuss:
  • What do you do when a local news report or social media post gains traction, but you know the meat of the story isn't true? And how can cities be proactive in their communities to avoid such things in the first place?
  • What's going on in the Texas legislature on school funding, and what's the impact on cities?
Although the title might suggest it, there is no explicit content in this episode!
