Daily Email - Monday - 09/21/2026

What a weekend, Houston! There was soooo much happening around the city. The Pumpkin Patch Festival is happening now at Discovery Green, ARTECHOUSE opened its new Twilight exhibit, and Tame Impala and Chief Keef both came to town. Houston really kept us busy this weekend.

And speaking of Tame Impala, the girlies showed UP and showed OUT. 🪩 Y’all looked absolutely gorgeous!

We’re getting dangerously close to my birthday celebrations, so I brought y’all a little birthday treat too. Jo Koy is taking over Toyota Center on October 2, and we’re giving away a pair of tickets! Enter to win and celebrate with me from the comedy club... well, arena.* 🎟️

JUST ANNOUNCED

  • Shinedown fans, Smith & Myers bring their mix of originals and unexpected covers to the Bayou Music Center on December 15. See what your favorite rock songs sound like stripped wayyyy down.

  • Save a little energy for the end of the year because Galantis hits Ductwork on December 30. The Grammy-nominated electronic project has billions of streams behind it. Close out 2026 somewhere very loud.

  • Five-time Grammy nominee Margaret Cho brings decades of fearless stand-up to The Houston Improv on March 7. She’s been making audiences laugh since the ’90s, so go see a comedy legend do her thing.

  • Indie-rock legends Death Cab for Cutie take over 713 Music Hall on March 22 with Swapmeet opening. They’ve got a brand-new album and plenty of songs that still hurt years later. Go get emotionally wrecked.

  • Plus other just announced shows in Houston!

Houston is in full festival mode right now, and there is soooo much happening. 🎡 Some festivals are completely free, some you can enter to win tickets to, and some are simply between you and your bank account. From food and art to music and cultural celebrations, there’s basically a festival for every type of Houstonian this fall. Pick a few, clear some calendar space, and go enjoy festival season before Houston decides it’s winter for three random days.

YOUR CAREER COULD USE A PLOT TWIST

If you’ve been opening LinkedIn, staring at the same jobs, and wondering what you’re even looking for anymore, maybe it’s time for a little career reset. 💻 We put together a step-by-step Houston guide with WGU to help you figure out what your next move could actually look like.*

  • Figure out what you want: More money? Better hours? Work-life balance? A completely different industry? Start there.

  • See where Houston is growing: Healthcare, construction, energy, manufacturing, technology, and professional services are among the industries highlighted in the guide.

  • Talk to people actually doing the job: Reach out on LinkedIn, attend networking events, and ask the questions a job description won’t answer.

  • Figure out what’s holding you back: If another degree or credential is the missing piece, WGU offers online programs designed for working adults.

LOCALS ONLY

  • Houston climbers, we got a new playground! Crux Climbing Center officially opened its first Houston location at The Plant in Second Ward on September 17. The 21,000-square-foot space has bouldering, strength training, yoga and fitness classes, saunas, a kids’ area, training boards, and plenty of space to hang after your climb. Go see how high you can make it before your arms give up.*
