On Friday's show: Houston has seen explosive growth over the past decade, primarily in flood plains. Houston Chronicle reporter Yilun Cheng explains some potential connections between development in the flood plain and donations to political campaigns.

Also this hour: We meet Marine Corps veteran Steve Jimenez, who found relief from depression, anxiety, and a general lack of purpose after leaving the military in beekeeping. He founded Hives for Heroes, an organization to help his fellow veterans get into beekeeping. Jimenez is among several veterans involved in agriculture featured in an upcoming episode of the PBS series After Action.

Then, from a mixed bag for Houston in Wallet Hub’s rankings of the country's best Halloween experiences, to fluctuating candy costs this Halloween, we break down The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of the week.

And we learn how Sugar Land is celebrating Día de los Muertos.
