In today’s edition of “The Commuter Cut,” Ernie and guest host Tessa Barerra talk with Heidi Russell, Director of the Center for Health Policy at Rice University’s Baker Institute, who discusses how healthcare policy has changed during President Trump's second term in office.

Also, we hear from legendary Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter Lyle Lovett, who joins us to talk about his concert tonight in which he'll be performing with the Houston Symphony, as well as his family life, and some of the many musicians he's worked with throughout his career.
