The year in politics (Dec. 18, 2024)

On Wednesday's show: We reflect on the wild, intriguing year in politics that was 2024 in our weekly roundup.

Also this hour: The holidays bring families across the country together, and loved ones who haven’t been able to spend time together can catch up and create new memories. But in those moments, that also means warning signs of neglect or changes in health in our elders can become more evident. So, how can you and your family watch out for signs of physical or cognitive decline while still respecting the people you care about?

And it’s the time of year when many Houstonians make, eat, and share tamales. We talk about the many different types of tamales and the role they play in many holiday traditions.
