In today's episode, Mike Acosta, the world's foremost authority on the Houston Astrodome, joins me to discuss what he's working on present day after his 22 year stint in a variety of critical roles with the Houston Astros, namely Astros historian and MLB authentication manager. We have a lengthy conversation about his current role with Houston City Beat, which he runs along with Houston City Beat founder Lisbet Marquez.
