On Friday's show: Gas prices have been climbing for months, but it's diesel that is setting records. The average price hit $6.31 a gallon this week, the highest level on record and nearly 70 percent higher than a year ago. We take a closer look at some of the reasons why.

Also this hour: Jobs, housing, schools, health care, business -- it all continues to expand on Greater Houston’s west side. We examine why Katy, Richmond, Fulshear, and other western communities keep growing.

Then, we break down The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of the week.

And we preview this weekend’s BIPOC Book Fest, celebrating underrepresented writers.
