Texas Extra: Introducing After the Flood

By: David Brown

On July 4th, 2025, devastating floodwaters ripped through the Texas Hill Country, killing more than 130 people.

After the Flood, a new podcast from the Texas Newsroom and PBS’s Frontline, has followed survivors over the last year and  tries to find out why this happened – and whether it could happen again.

In this first episode, you’ll hear what happened during those harrowing early morning hours of the flood. And you’ll meet a father who had just sent his daughter to Camp Mystic two weeks earlier.
