On Tuesday's show: Fort Bend County’s new chief executive was sworn in Monday. We learn more about County Judge Daniel Wong, a former Sugar Land city council member who was appointed to the position after K.P. George was removed from office last week.

And we learn about some of the reaction to Houston City Council’s passage of a revised HPD policy for interacting with ICE.

Also this hour: Houston’s social scene quite often revolves around alcohol. But what if connection didn’t require a drink? We learn how one Houston woman turned her personal journey to sobriety into a growing movement to create alcohol-free spaces and community, called Sober Girl Houston, as more Americans rethink their relationship with drinking.

And we revisit the story of The Melody Maids, a group of singing teenage girls from southeast Texas that traveled the world performing for troops from World War II to Vietnam. A new documentary tells their story, and it will be shown April 15 at the River Oaks Theatre.
