After his family’s home was swept away in the devastating Central Texas floods on July 4, 2025, <i>Texas Monthly</i> senior editor Aaron Parsley began the journey of putting the pieces back together. It began with a magazine feature written days after the tragedy—for which he won a Pulitzer Prize—and continues here as he hosts this podcast series, <i>Where the River Took Us</i>. Through intimate conversations with family members and other survivors, this podcast explores how people endure unimaginable loss and how a community tries to rebuild, grow, and adapt after a mass tragedy.<br /><br />From the producers of <i>America's Girls,</i> <i>The Final Flight of Captain Forrester,</i> and <i>The Problem With Erik,</i> the series debuts May 26, 2026.
