LOCAL MEDIA
Texas is a state largely defined by its oil industry, so entertainment that touches on that aspect of the culture is quite popular around these parts. Landman, a show created by Taylor Sheridan, is about an oil-field worker, Billy Bob Thornton, navigating the ins and outs of an often dangerous career. The show is an offshoot of the podcast Boomtown by Christian Wallace, a Texas State University Graduate who has lived in San Marcos on and off ever since, that chronicles the oil boom in the Permian Basin.
Wallace grew up in a small town called Andrews, which is just north of Midland and Odessa.
