The Michael Berry Show. Kim Og is the district attorney for Harris County.

0:08.0

And there's an arc to this story. It's not a straight line.

0:13.5

I knew Kim Og when she was the head of Kramstoppers and I was on City Council.

0:21.4

And if you had asked me

0:23.5

between 2001 and 2007, particularly the early part of that, if you'd asked me,

0:31.8

do you think Kim Og is going to run for district attorney? I'd say wouldn't surprise me.
