    • Gov. Abbott Calls for New ICE Strategy, Austin Thaws Out, & No to Bike Lanes on Sixth
      Jan 27 2026
      After 37-year-old Alex Pretti was shot and killed by the U.S. Border Patrol during an anti-ICE protest in Minneapolis on Saturday, Austinites are feeling increasingly anxious about the possibility of heightened immigration activity here at home. On our inaugural Tuesday News Roundup, host Nikki DaVaughn is joined by producers Elissa Castles and Eva Ruth Moravec to discuss how Austinites are responding, why there were concerns about ICE in town, and the local leaders including even Texas Gov. Greg Abbott who are calling on D.C. to rebuild public trust with ICE officials. Plus, we grade the city’s response to Austin's winter storm and take a moment to hear directly from our listeners.

    • Weird Crimes You Can Go to Jail for in Texas
      Jan 26 2026
      It’s a new year, and even in Texas, that means there are new laws that can catch the unaware in a crime. But how well do you know our existing statutes — like our oyster-related felonies or the ordinance that says it’s illegal to throw things off of Mount Bonnell? Host Nikki DaVaughn is joined by Geoff Burkhart, Travis County Executive for Community Legal Services, to talk about new crimes for 2026 and the weird, wacky, and painful laws of Texas’ past, including some that are still on the books and could come back to inflict more harm. Plus, Burkhart explains why Travis County is one of only a few in Texas that ensures people have legal representation at their first court appearance. Want some more Austin news?
