Hosted by KPRC 2 News Reporter Brandon Walker, The Eyes of Texas will once again be traveling Texas in search of the stories that define state pride and meeting up with a variety of Texans doing big things along the way.
“For many Houstonians, The Eyes of Texas is synonymous with KPRC 2,” said Vice President/General Manager Jerry Martin. “We think this is the perfect vehicle to spotlight as a podcast on our digital platforms.”
Originally hosted by former KPRC-TV News Director Ray Miller, and then KPRC anchor Ron Stone, The Eyes of Texas aired original episodes on Channel 2 from 1969 to 1999. A series of “Best of” episodes aired in 2007, followed by new episodes hosted by KPRC anchors Bill Balleza and Dominique Sachse in 2009.
