This is the official podcast presented by the Texas Association of Specialty Courts where we talk all things related to Texas specialty court programs. This show was previously titled The PodTASC but was rebranded to Justice & Recovery in November 2024. Episodes feature guest speakers with various specialty court experiences. We go deep on backgrounds and many characteristics on what it takes to operate a successful specialty court in Texas.
The Texas Association of Specialty Court Courts (TASC) builds and strengthens Texas specialty courts through collaboration, advocacy and education. TASC was founded to: (1) Increase local and statewide political, media and community awareness of the existence and success of drug courts; (2) Support legislation authorizing funding for the operation of drug courts; and (3) Provide support for jurisdictions wanting to establish drug courts.
Justice & Recovery is currently hosted by Liz Wiggins, the Communications Director on the TASC Board.

How did Dr. Katharine Roxanne Grawe, more commonly known as Dr. Roxy, go from typical plastic surgeon to infamous social media icon? Roxy: Rise and Fall of the TikTok Doc is the story of what happens when social media makes its way into the operating room where patients’ lives hang in the balance. The patients who went under Dr. Roxy’s knife and in front of her camera share their stories in this examination of the dire consequences of plastic surgery gone wrong.
Attending these meetings in person is very time consuming. They are long and there is often quite a bit of administrative business done. Not many people have the time to do it. And, even if you do, it is not a very efficient use of time.
But the meetings are important. They are the best way to keep track of what the agencies are up to. These podcasts make access to that content very simple and efficient.
I edit the podcasts to break the meetings into short, topical episodes. You can listen to the episodes that cover topics that matter to you. The cool thing about doing that with a podcast is that you can listen whenever and wherever you can.
The podcasts are made from community tv.org ‘s video feed of the meetings. Thanks go to them for providing those. You can see the full videos on their website.
I’ve started adding some episodes that cover the supporting documents for the meetings. Those can be very useful. I am using text to audio conversions to convert them to an audio format.
I’m not editing the content of the podcasts. It is extracted directly from the video of the meetings. I am editing out the agency’s administrative business, and I am not including public comments. Both of those are available in the original video.
There are some presentations that depend on a Power point presentation or slides. I make videos of those and post them on YouTube.

For almost two decades, DEA Special Agent Chad Scott ruled the streets just North of New Orleans. He controlled a network of snitches by convincing people he arrested to work for him as informants. Chad would stop at nothing to put drug dealers behind bars. His successes won awards at the DEA, but his willingness to bend the rules earned him a terrifying reputation on the streets. Some called him the Golden Boy. Others called him the White Devil. But when one of guys on Chad’s team is caught dealing drugs, Chad’s life is overturned. His right-hand men betray him and confess everything to the FBI. Investigators go over his career with a fine-toothed comb, asking the question: is Chad Scott the greatest DEA Agent in the South, or is he a criminal?
