The Waco Curve: What We Talk about When We Talk about Waco

Waco gets talked about in all kinds of ways—too small, too hyped, too bland, too glossy—and each version clips something essential from the city’s real story. This episode looks past the slogans and the social feeds to examine how those perspectives shape our sense of place and why so many of them end up feeling like shortcuts.

What emerges is an argument for noticing the particular: the imperfect, the local, the stubbornly real. Rather than judging Waco by someone else’s standard, the episode asks what its places—bridges, neighborhoods, food trucks—reveal about who we are and how we choose to see the city we live in.
