Julián Castro Will Appear on 'The Daily Show' Tonight

Julián Castro, former SA mayor and current secretary of the Department Housing and Urban Development, will be tonight's guest on The Daily Show.

At 10 p.m., viewers can tune in to watch Castro and host John Stewart discuss the finer points of the FHA's recent actions to lower insurance premiums — mortgages are set to decrease from 1.35 percent to 0.85 percent. It's a compelling and hilarious topic, we know.

Tonight's episode marks Castro's first guest appearance on the program. His twin brother, Congressman Joaquin Castro, appeared on The Daily Show last fall, when Stewart and company filmed a week-long stint of the program in Austin. For tonight's episode, expect the obligatory interrogation regarding Castro's relationship with Hillary Clinton and the possibility of his being her 2016 running mate.

I didn't know he was the guest tonight and might have missed it, too!

I thought that a few people might be interested about his appearance on the Daily Show. I think that San Antonio might have some more good luck in the mayor position if Leticia Van de Putte is elected so keep your chin up.

She has her work cut out for her against Villareal, who was a shoe-in until she announced. I'm not decided yet, Joaquin Castro has endorsed Villareal, and I've met and had conversations with both of them. But I really like Leticia too!
