“Because of all the videos I saw of people rescuing people in Houston — I felt super good about that, man,” Rogan continued.
He credited Houston’s spirit of unity after the storm to the pride Texans feel in their state and who we are as a people; he said Texas is like no other.
Rogan talked about Texas’ past as its own republic, which makes it a bit different from other states.
Here in Houston, we don’t just have that Texas pride. We also have pride in our city.
