Houston Sports State of the Union Podcast

Houston’s sports story couldn’t be more divided. The Rockets are rising — young, confident, and finally giving H-Town something to believe in — while the Texans look completely buried after another brutal week. It feels like déjà vu from that Houston Chronicle “Tombstone” cover in 2005, when they buried the Astros right before their miracle run to the World Series. Will history repeat itself… or are the Texans really done? In this episode of Houston Sports State of the Union, Nick Stevenson breaks down “The Young and the Hopeless” — the two sides of Houston sports right now: 🚀 Rockets: Energy, growth, and the young core that’s turning heads. 💀 Texans: Frustration, regression, and a season on life support. 🎙️ Hosted by Nick Stevenson Houston Sports State of the Union Podcast HSSTU PODCAST LINKTREE - https://linktr.ee/hs_state_of_the_union_podcast HSSTU H-TOWN FAN GEAR ITEMS OF THE WEEK! #HoustonAstros - https://amzn.to/48MrEXI #HoustonTexans - https://amzn.to/48Mk7s2 #HoustonRockets - https://amzn.to/48QiglT #HoustonDynamoFC - https://amzn.to/3wEYzQv #UofHCougars - https://amzn.to/3v6jnjA Studio Equipment Used Mic: Shure SM7B - https://amzn.to/4caf3jU Mixer: RodeCaster Pro II - https://amzn.to/4a9RwOV Headphones: Shure SRH840A Over-Ear Wired - https://amzn.to/3vebvfX Green Screen: Elgato Green Screen XL Extra Wide - https://amzn.to/4clyiaf Stream Deck: Elgato Stream Deck XL - https://amzn.to/43idkoJ Camera: Canon XA60 - https://amzn.to/3Pkx8ly Recorded with OBS Studio Virtual Background by pikisuper star on Freepik - https://www.freepik.com/.../air-neon-frame_11521228.htm...
