The latest Analog event begins as a night of storytelling in an old grocery store now used by University Baptist Church. On the surface, it’s a handful of speakers taking turns at a mic. In reality, it’s a study of ordinary people trying to make sense of themselves in front of a room willing to listen.This episode looks at what happens when a community builds a stage out of whatever it has—folding chairs, mismatched lamps, a back room with exposed ducts—and how Waco’s most honest moments often take shape far from places designed to impress.

Sergio’s Food Truck, once a downtown institution, now sits silent in an alley behind Austin Avenue. And as The Waco Bridge reported, it’s more than the story of another business that’s shut down; it’s a cautionary tale. This episode follows how the arrest and deportation of Sergio Garcia fits into a broader statewide and national pattern. The result? That quiet alley becomes a lens on what Waco notices—or else chooses not to see.

What emerges is a portrait of how fast ordinary life can collapse when immigration enforcement shifts—something Charlotte, North Carolina, has already demonstrated—and a reminder that Waco isn’t exempt from the same forces.

Shorty’s Pizza Shack opening a location in Hewitt should be a straightforward story of expansion, but nothing about it is that simple. Instead, this episode looks at how a Baylor student hangout becomes a family hub the minute it crosses Highway 6. It's not about pizza—it’s about the ways neighborhoods absorb the places we think we already know.

What emerges is a sense of how identity travels, settles, and stays recognizable even when the map around it shifts.
