Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

10-7-26 Mark and Melynda
Q: What was the Houston example and how does it compare to Austin's proposed audit?
Matt cites Houston's independent audit, which used Ernst & Young and produced a report with significant suggested efficiencies; Austin's supporters claim a similar independent, transparent, and accountable process could yield substantial savings without raising taxes.
10-7-26 Mark and Melynda
Q: How would you respond to the points raised by the opponents of Proposition I today?
Matt argues the opponents are funded by taxpayers who benefit from the current non-transparent system and that an independent outside audit is essential to uncover waste, fraud, and inefficiency, with a focus on delivering transparent information to taxpayers.
6-4-26 Hour 3 Podcast
Q: Will it be worded as easy as what you just said, where it is completely understandable?
He clarifies that it's a charter amendment rather than an ordinance and discusses the implications of ballot language, including previous precedents in Texas that require unbiased, simple language.
6-4-26 Hour 3 Podcast
Q: So the first question I have is, do we know how long it will be to, before you find out if you have enough, I guess, legit signatures?
The guest explains the validation process, the three rounds of verification, and expects certification within roughly 30 to 45 days, with a ballot-language decision following soon after.
6-9-26 Hour 1 Podcast
Q: What are your thoughts, Professor Mike, on the self-defense aspect given the judge's provoking the difficult instruction?
Professor Mike explains that the instruction weakens self-defense arguments, making appeals more likely if convicted, and suggests the jury may be constrained in considering self-defense at trial.
