Show Notes

Dallas will not host the 2029 College Football Playoff title game as it hoped, but the committee in charge of North Texas’ bid made that decision. A report from The Action Network’s Brett McMurphy Monday said Tampa replaced Dallas as the host city for the game on Jan. 22, 2029 due to a scheduling conflict. However, a person familiar with Dallas’ bid told The Dallas Morning News on Tuesday that AT&T Stadium was never awarded the game and the committee withdrew its bid for other reasons last summer. In other news, a federal judge has ordered a Texas white supremacist group to pay $2.75 million to a Black musician who was violently attacked in Boston nearly three years ago; Next up, Dallas company Burger Schmurger will raise money for victims of the Los Angeles fires with a smashburger sale on Jan. 26th at Oak Highlands Brewery. Proceeds will benefit Pasadena Education Foundation, which has a fund supporting students, staff and families in the Pasadena Unified School District.
