City Cast Denver

Have followed this podcast for a couple of years and i do still believe it’s a great daily discussion of what’s going on in town. However… Some of the platformed guests are baffling (e.g a multipart series punching up Boebert who pretty clearly just hates denver, you know, the topic of the show and the city we live in) and Paul feels like he’s actively striving to be a contrarian anytime something remotely hot button comes up. It’s frustrating because when the show is good, it’s very good. Not every point that disagrees with basic logic needs to be given equal weight, y’all.

Ok - as I said in the title I love this podcast, but the missing star is in protest over the vegan hatred in the last episode. I am saying this as someone who is not vegan, but also respects the reasons behind people choosing animal welfare over their own needs. As for vegans lecturing people on their own life choice - I personally think it’s fair game. They are passionate about their lifestyle because they are animal lovers and I respect that. Also - my son was a vegetarian for several years and was constantly lectured by meat eaters on why she should eat animals - now back as a meat eater he is rarely attacked by vegans or vegetarians on why he should not eat meat. It’s so fashionable these days to hate on vegans and it’s become ridiculous. They are lowering their carbon footprint, they are looking out for the welfare of animals. In my book, they’re pretty darn good people fighting for a better world.

Fabulous and informative pod. I never miss an episode. I love the diverse opinions and the ability to stay up-to-date with the news in my community. I appreciate all the hosts and I’m grateful that this podcast exists. Thank you for all that you do and for bringing your authentic selves to the listeners. We don’t need fakey fakey people, so keep being you!

I moved to Denver and I started listening to this. They have such a AWFUL pulse on the city, they cozy up to politicians for interviews and tend to sugar coat things and paint ppl who don’t agree with them politically as monsters. They are so out of touch it’s scary. They literally made a podcast about the bridge proposal everyone hates on why it’ll be great. They’re like government sponsored propaganda. I think they live in bubbles and don’t really look at things in a balanced manner. This show has actually made my ears bleed at the rich ppl going “we have to help these ppl” and grandstanding policies they don’t actually understand. They should just focus on current events and less on politics. The politics are soooo bad, they’re sooo dumb, and I’m super middle / don’t like Trump.
