We all hope the best for the next generation. This week, a new season of #ScaiPod (also available on Spotify!) is debuting with a look at the unique ways Texans try to get kids excited for their education.

Loyal Scaiaholics will recall I visit one of Oklahoma's casinos with associates each year around my birthday. Several of us have birthdays around the same time, so we feel a casino junket is the most responsible way to plan financially for the year ahead.

You might recall Texas hosted some soccer matches as part of an international tournament earlier this summer. We've previously discussed some of the big auctions at the Heritage Auctions house in Irving ranging from the Declaration of Independence to an autographed cassock worn by Pope Francis.

There must be a way for Buc-ee the Beaver and Ohio to coexist. I was excited, in my role as Texas Diplomat (Note from the State of Texas: This is the first we've heard about having a diplomat to Ohio) to introduce Ohioans to beaver-themed waffle irons.

Li'l Baby Scaia would have been enamored of a theme park that opened this summer in Grapevine. Dig World invites munchkins to try out heavy construction equipment.

Has the world grown weary enough of algorithms? Last year, we discussed how Netflix apparently heard me talking about a plane crash and suggested I watch Manifest.

Each year, students from across the country head to Texas Motor Speedway to race solar-powered cars. They design their own cars and bring them to Fort Worth to race across Texas.

Loyal Scaiaholics will recall I recently lied my way into a summit for the world's greatest minds. In that blog, we touched on some of the greatest issues facing humanity including, but not limited to, the history of toilet paper. But I also mentioned going to a seminar about politics.

My cyber security guy has always made himself available for interviews. Whenever a government agency or big corporation has a problem, I know I can call him up, and he's ready to explain the differences between a cyber attack or an internal software or hardware issue.

Loyal Scaiaholics will recall I am a member of the world's brain trust. As such, the greatest minds on the planet met in Fort Worth last week to solve the world's most pressing issues and also gain a greater understanding of the history that led us this far.

For years, in the interest of journalism, I participated in a celebrity hot dog eating contest at Curly's Frozen Custard in Fort Worth. Never mind that the "celebrities" were people whose names you might sort of recall hearing on the radio or reading in a newspaper byline but had never felt especially strongly about.

I often write about how we shouldn't spend so much of our free time arguing with strangers on the internet. Turns out I was wrong.

The world and Texas have now spent a few weeks getting to know each other. For instance, the Dutch have introduced themselves in the form of one of the most rockin' buses you'll see on the highway.

We've all been thinking, "If only there were a way to commercialize this international soccer tournament."

The Catholic Church and I have a rich history together. I went to Catholic school for 12 years, so I'm amazing at tying neckties recklessly while scurrying to first period and reciting prayers I may or may not completely understand.

An exciting new season of the podcast has launched (It's equally exciting on Spotify!). This week, we're discussing how the National Weather Service uses technology to keep honing in on the right areas for severe weather warnings.

Inspiration came to me, as it often does, on an airplane. I was recently at an associate's wedding in North Carolina.

I was recently visiting some family from Ohio. Looking forward to some of the perks of home like authentic local cuisine, naturally, my mom pointed out Ohio had recently celebrated the opening of its first Buc-ee's and suggested the fam head there instead.

Back during The Troubles, the PBR World Finals moved from Las Vegas to Arlington because they weren't allowed to have crowds in Nevada. They stayed in Texas because we know how to put a bull ridin' show and also have the best dirt. That recipe comes alive again starting this weekend. The Professional Bull Riders World Finals start this weekend at Dickies Arena in Fort Worth and then move on to AT&T Stadium for the championship. To celebrate, Texas mascots competed in a mechan

Twenty years ago, College Graduate Scaia was looking for a new adventure. Loyal Scaiaholics will recall the saga of this burgeoning media empire started humbly in the SuperOregon town of Hermiston. My first boss and I still keep touch. We hosted the morning show together on the iconic 1360 KOHU. He texted this week to let me know the couple who owned the station were shutting it down. Selling advertising had become more difficult as agencies moved toward digital, and they cou
