Let's take a moment.

Our relationship to gravity is dynamic.

Whether you stand on your feet or your foundation is a chair, consider how your body and your spine respond to gravity.

We use gravity to maintain an integrity throughout our posture.

Take a moment and stand or sit normally.

Can you identify your relationship to gravity? And are you able to lift up tall through the spine, yielding to the earth and gravity equally? You can find Take a Moment on KUT.org or the NPR app.

Support for Take a Moment comes from Eremos, a center of contemplative life, offering programs and practices for respite and renewal for over 30 years, both online and in person.

That is coming up on today's show.

Last week's election was the first time many Texans had ever experienced any Democrat-winning statewide office.

Some of them are marking the occasion with a uniquely Texas symbol.

I'm David Martin Davies in San Antonio.

All right.

We've got even more election follow ups and joining us for to help us with that is KUT's Williamson County reporter Kaylee Hunt.

Kaylee, good to see you.

What's so cool about it is it's like radio was back in the 1930s and 40s, and people just didn't even know what to do with it.

I mean, the very first radio station that they had at KUT in Austin became KTRH in Houston, where I would later work in the 2000s.

But KTRH, which that the call letters were an advertisement for the Rice Hotel come to Rice Hotel.

They would just do it was a comedy show and then they'd have a choir and some kind of music.

And, you know, this is the kind of guy who was mercifully... attacked by the media in Austin for years and years and years, and he's still going.

And it's kind of great that there's radio stations like ours, or even down in Austin, KUT will play it, or even some of the satellite radio stations that are playing traditional country music, so keeping a guy like this going.

So let's have a little listen, shall we?

And let's tell the folks once again that they can phone in at 403-220-5000, and someone would be very happy to take your donation.

From KUT.

After a traumatic event, we often feel a sense of disconnect.

Keep it up for as long as you need to.

When you're ready, you can stop, pause, and notice.

How will a change in state leadership affect the future of these projects in Texas? We're going to take a closer look coming up on today's show.

There is plenty to see throughout the city during this first weekend of the Austin Studio Tour.

One Austin band is using the opportunity to bring to life some of the concepts from their debut album and teaming up with other artists to bring that vision to life.

Thank you for making us part of your day.

The rapid rise of artificial intelligence data centers has presented Texans with increasing concerns about water scarcity, the future of artificial intelligence, and greater strain on the power grid.

Now, after a pivotal election, KUT's Lee Walden tells us experts and voters alike are wondering what comes next.

It was just a year ago when Governor Abbott called Texas the epicenter of AI development.
