    BNLO SHOW 10-7-26 | Vote Yes on the CoCo Train (7A)

    Ballots are dropping in Colorado like autumn leaves and while there are plenty of choices on the ballot, one should be an automatic "Yes!": 7A, the sales tax that will finally allow us to build a passenger rail line along the front range, decades past due. https://youtube.com/shorts/wkQHJcREkyY BNLO is an independent show/opinion piece/podcast about Colorado Springs.

    BNLO SHOW 10-2-26 | The OCC DDA is Dead. Maybe?

    Last Tuesday, the Colorado Springs city council voted 5-4 to dissolve the Old Colorado City Downtown Development Authority. And yet it is, legally, still existing. How? Why? What? I got to sit down with the DDA's chair, Adam Stepan, to explore what's going on for the future of the westside tax district. BNLO is an independent show/opinion piece/podcast about Colorado Springs.

    BNLO SHOW 9-25-26 | Public Internet in COS?

    In 2021, Colorado Springs Utilities opened the door to municipal internet by kicking off a huge build out to 250,000 homes. They're behind schedule and strangely behind budget, but they've already provided plenty of incentive for other public companies to get going. Nick explains what's going on so far following a new report by the Colorado Springs City Auditor.

    BNLO SHOW 9-23-26 | The Minimum Wage in COS

    Isn't it about time that Colorado Springs residents received a wage that reflected our cost of living? That our minimum wage shouldn't be the same as rural towns?

    BNLO SHOW 9-16-26 | Road Dieting!

    The city just dieted Colorado Avenue, which runs from downtown Colorado Springs to the gateway of Manitou Springs through Old Colorado City. But why? Why are road diets such a big deal?

    BNLO SHOW 9-11-26 | Ugly (?) AI-Made Flyers Everywhere

    Across the seas of social media, small, local businesses are employing free (or really cheap) AI services like ChatGPT, Gemini and, uh, maybe Copilot?... to generate marketing materials. They're simultaneously pretty and ugly but most importantly: they get the job done. I talk with a pair of local business women and talk about their stances on this new AI flyer trend.
