In January 2023, the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal launched a new series called "Weird West Texas," where we explore some of the most odd, eccentric and, sometimes, just plain weird things in our region — from the state's northernmost town of Booker, down into the Big Country, westward to the Permian Basin and all the way into the Rolling Plains.

Our audience quickly became fans as they learned new and interesting facts about their home. So, we decided to take it a step further and create "Weird West Texas: The Podcast."

Join our agriculture and environmental reporter Brandi D. Addison who will discuss some tidbits from our research and the favorite topics we covered throughout the month. We'll also share some readers' comments and emails, so we encourage you to reach out and share your opinions.

We are so excited to take you on this journey with us! Now, let's get weird, y'all!

Got an idea for a topic? Send an email to BAddison@gannett.com with "Weird West Texas" in the subject line.
