Koog's coach Calvin Sampson recently shared a text he got
from Greg Popovitch, one of the winningest head coaches in
the NBA, after the Koogs earned their Final four trip
to San Antonio. Popovich's tech said, I'm the happiest person
in San Antonio, but not as happy as you, Karen
(01:58):
and the family and your whole program built with good
character and love. Bravo, my good friend.
Speaker 2 (02:06):

Speaker 1 (02:07):
Excellent cook's take on Duke Saturday Night in San Antonio
tip off at seven forty nine.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Go goog yem Yeah. Producer Anthony Dane heads up for
all our book lovers. We have a destination in town
Taylor made just for you. It's the Houston Book Warehouse.
This small business dan has more than thirty five thousand
used books with prices ranging from just one too just
five bucks. Customers say this collection, too is quote unmatched.
They say it's a whole world of books that you
(02:34):
can browse for hours. And other customer adds, when you
come to a place like this, you never know what
you're gonna find, and that is the fun. So if
you love books or have someone in your life that does,
add this to your must visit list. It's the Houston
Book Warehouse. Find it on the west side off Keith
Harrow Boulevard, just west of Highway six.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
And I think books something to do with our nearly
impossible question coming up at six forty just saying, just saying,
and I love this. It's called Sunday Supper. It's a
kids program partnering with Houston Restaurants and Texas Children's Hospitals.
Sunday Suppers a sky High for Kids is a local
nonprofit dedicating to supporting children battling cancer and life threatening illnesses.
(03:16):
They give them special meals from the kid's favorite restaurants
delivered right to the hospital room. My favorite, Truth Barbecue.
They were the first to volunteer last year. They served
fried chicken and tater Todd CASSEROLEO and banana pudding. It
was a huge hit with the kids. Other restaurants include Craftpeda, Unice,
and trill Burghers. So it's so cool Houston Restaurants partnering
(03:41):
with Texas Children's Hospital making the kids happy with comfort.

What a great partnership too.

Houston's Best Forride the eighties, nineties and Today I'm Dane
with producer Anthony Well at six forty. We learned that
the key to a kid's success lots of books around
(04:09):
when they're growing up, and that kind of led Anthony
and I to talk about our favorite books. One of
my favorites. It was such a heart wrenching book, so
well written with sounder and again, I grew up in
the New York school district. So maybe the book isn't here,
but it was definitely very popular there. Anthony, you were
the THEMS books exactly. And then my really brilliant middle
(04:33):
child is Super Diaper Baby books that had been banned
in many schools.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
You said that you had a problem with the misspelling,
but the Chick fil A cows misspell everything.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Okay for the sea.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
There you go, and we're asking you about the experience
you've had with books and to share it with us.
And we have got Shelby calling in from Sealy on
your way to work in Katie. What's been your book experience?
Speaker 4 (04:57):
I actually grew up with the agent reader by brothers
all the time. But when I got into middle school,
I grew up in North Carolina and we had a
thing called Battle of Books where you basically would read
books and then you would go to this competition to
answer questions about the book.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Oh my gosh, I'm getting nervous, just reprehension, exfinitely.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
And I preached that with my son and he's actually
a little heart at reading, but he has that part.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Down that Isa, Wow, that's incredible.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
It's a lot of times, you know, it's one thing
to read to the kids, but then asking questions.
Speaker 4 (05:31):
Oh yeah, so that was the fun part about it
because it was one of those they asked you a
questions and you would have to tell them what book
it was and if it was one that it could
be in more than one book you can contest it.
And then you would have to find the book, the page,
the chapter, everything.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
For It's like, how old were you when you did this?
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Oh? I think it was like thirteen.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Yeah, that's something.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
Were there any prizes up for grabs?
Speaker 4 (05:55):
So the winners of the competition got like some kind
of people apart. It wasn't something big, but it was
fun to do.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
What a great we can.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Do that in our homes really, and the skills you
learned from that, yeez shall be.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
That's what makes you a successful lady today?
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Right, Yes, I love it. Well, thanks for sharing.
Speaker 1 (06:12):

Speaker 4 (06:14):

says that because her hers was actually hard. We've got
our Battle of the Urbs coming up at eight ten,
and you you don't have to have read any books
in your whole.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
