24 AUG 2020 · Host Ceslie Armstrong hits the road (virtually) and airwaves for the "Road Trippin' Hotel Hoppin" episode with stops in Houston, Bryan-College Station, Irving, Austin and San Antonio. Guest Amy Trench of the Houston-based Valencia Hotel Group, reveals how the privately-owned hospitality company builds ground up and designs each property based on the culture of the location and is earnest in featuring Texas artists, makers, and experts so each hotel tells the story of its locale. This episode's "From the Archives" interview was recorded live in 2011 with Hill Country-based singer and globally-known songwriter Robert Earl Keen shortly after his hit album Ready for Confetti. Keen tells Ceslie about his love of performing, writing, and why he believes people connect with his lyrics. “Your Texas Life” knows what it means to be Texan. It’s a way of life. It’s an idea. It’s an experience. Dedicated to telling stories that embody the myriad of voices, viewpoints, cultures, and characters of this colorful region of the U.S.A. “Your Texas Life” is spearheading a movement to capture, document, and publish the essence of Texans–past and present–and people who have experienced Texas with a story to share.
