The Think Brazos Podcast brings together local voices—residents, elected officials, and policy experts—for real conversations about the decisions shaping life in Bryan, College Station, and across Brazos County.
We launched this podcast with one goal: to help families thrive. As staff members at Bryan/College Station Habitat for Humanity, we’ve seen firsthand how rising housing costs and poor planning can displace longtime residents. We’ve watched it happen in cities like Austin—and we believe our community can take a different path.
By creating a space to discuss local policies around housing, affordability, and economic resilience, we hope to empower more neighbors to get informed, get involved, and stay rooted right here.
Think local. Think Brazos.

Disclosure and disclaimer for candidate interviews
The purpose of the Think Brazos Podcast is to present to the public a deeper sense of who the candidates are who hope to lead this community and to create a space for them to present their ideas, especially about housing and affordability. However, as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, Bryan-College Station Habitat for Humanity (which created and sponsors Think Brazos) does not and cannot endorse any particular candidate or political party. The open dialogue we create by doing our utmost to speak to every candidate for a particular political race we decide to cover should in no way be construed as an endorsement of the candidate or political party. Further, the ideas and opinions expressed by the candidates we interview are purely their own and not necessarily those of Habitat for Humanity. Housing affordability is an important issue, so we thank you for following the Think Brazos Podcast.
