City Cast Houston and Hey Houston have suspended operations. Our last podcast episode and newsletter were published on Oct. 24, 2025.
You’ve given us support at every turn, but (news flash!) media is a hard business, and local media is even harder. We haven’t been able to bring in as many listeners, readers, advertisers, and members as we need. Ultimately, our bosses decided to close up shop here for now, with the hope that City Cast will be able to return to Houston in the future. For now, City Cast will continue operating in 13 other cities across the U.S., including our two newest shows in Seattle and the Twin Cities.
We’ve loved the conversation we’ve been having with you for the past four years — the funny, messy, boisterous conversation about this city we all love. From covering Hurricane Beryl to the HISD takeover, highlighting our amazing food scene, and debating why exactly we say feeder roads in Houston — it’s never been a dull moment.
Thanks for trusting us with your stories, Houston.
