With talk of a new amusement park possibly opening next year northeast of Houston, it got us waxing nostalgic for the amusement park we lost in 2005 -- #AstroWorld.

Houston media blogger Mike McGuff grew up going to AstroWorld and once pored through old archival footage of it for a tribute to the theme park for KTRK-TV 13. And he joins us to talk about his memories of AstroWorld.

One of the classic Houston media events at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo is the "Celebrity Goat Milking Competition." TV anchors, radio hosts and newspaper reporters all warm their hands and milk for one minute. At the end of all of the heats, a winner is determined by the total amount of milk produced. No experience necessary - in fact I think everyone finds it funnier that way. I was invited this year to participate, so I just had to take a camera along to harass the other contestants with questions for mikemcguff.com!
