What's Up in The Woodlands

Podcasts

A weekly (when I have my act together) podcast all about The Woodlands, TX and the surrounding area (Spring, Shenandoah, Tomball, Conroe, etc (and maybe even some Houston stuff too!)). I may be biased because I live here, but The Woodlands is my favorite part of Texas. If you live, work, are from, just visiting, or in any other way enjoying the area, then this podcast is for you! A new episode will be published every Sunday (hopefully); announcing upcoming events, discussing existing institutions, and interacting with local residents and businesses. To submit your news, go to https://thetalkinggeek.com/thewoodlands. Podcast sponsors: Grasten Power Technologies, your local backup generator dealer and repairs specialists! https://grastengenerators.com P&P Oil & Gas Solutions, your total back-office outsourcing solution for upstream and midstream companies! https://ppogs.com
