Introducing: State of Mind
There?s something different about Texas. But how do you define it without resorting to cliches about cowboys and oilmen? At Texas Monthly, we think the answer is through stories ? stories like the ones we?ve been telling for almost 50 years. On State of Mind, you?ll hear those stories from our talented writers and from a wide array of other Texans. Each of them is a window into the experience of life here. Join us each week for a new story about life in the Lone Star State, from the Texas Monthly team behind ?Boomtown,? ?One by Willie,? and ?Tom Brown?s Body.?
