Houston Matters Full Episode - March 2, 2026

Today on Houston Matters, we discuss the ramifications of the U.S. and Israeli strike on Iran with Mark Jones, political science fellow at Rice University’s Baker Institute for Public Policy, and Jordan Blum, energy editor at Fortune. Harris County commissioners recently voted to strip the county treasurer’s office of key functions and to pursue dissolving the office altogether. The move was made amidst legal troubles for County Treasurer Carla Wyatt. Houston Public Media reporter Sarah Grunau has the details. Also, we discuss the Astros at spring training, how the automated ball strike challenge system is going so far, and preview the World Baseball Classic as some of the tournament’s games will be played at Daikin Park. Jeff Balke from the Bleav in Astros podcast is with us. Plus, it’s the first Monday of the month. That’s when we set aside time to sweat the small stuff in another round of Houstonian pet peeves. Lisa Gray from the Houston Chronicle and Craig Hlavaty join in on the group gripe session. Houston Matters is an essential daily guide to the people, places, issues, and ideas that define Greater Houston. Hosted by Craig Cohen. Houston Matters streams live on YouTube weekdays from 9 a.m. – 10 a.m. CT, and airs live on Houston Public Media’s News 88.7.
