Mixed List

The holiday season just got more exciting for Houston sports fans. The Space City Home Network (SCHN), a joint venture between the Houston Astros and Houston Rockets, has officially launched its direct-to-consumer (DTC) streaming app, SCHN+, making it easier and more affordable than ever to catch every home and away game without a pricey cable subscription. This is something that fans have been asking about for a few years now. 

Houston drivers know the weather here has a mind of its own. One day the sun is blazing; the next, humidity, rain, and road grime are everywhere. For Oscar Duran, owner of SuperShineSquad, this time of year isn’t just unpredictable, it’s the season when vehicles need the most love.

It takes real bravery to safely propel off the side of a 26-story building. And on Friday, November 14, that’s exactly what dozens of fearless Houstonians will be doing as they step off the edge of the Galleria DoubleTree Hotel for Rappel for a Reason, a fundraising event benefiting the United Way of Greater Houston.

Light Up the Park, presented by Houston Methodist, Houston’s newest holiday celebration.

The event officially opens to the public on Saturday, November 22, kicking off a 45-day festival that runs through January 4, 2026.
