    Episode 240 - Geraldo Rivera

    Rundown -   Intro - 00:35   Geraldo Rivera in the Inner Sanctum of Craig's Lawyers' Lounge - 20:11   Troubadour Dave Gunders - 01:10:05   "My Ska Brother (song for T)" by Dave Gunders - 01:25:34   Outro - 01:30:54   The final show before Election 2024 features broadcasting legend and longtime Donald Trump friend Geraldo Rivera, who tells us why he’s voting for VP Harris. Geraldo is a loving husband and dad, loyal friend, fierce enemy, patriot, kick-ass reporter, and proud JewRican. He's also an attorney welcomed into the Inner Sanctum of Craig's Lawyers' Lounge.   Geraldo's father was Puerto Rican. Geraldo was pissed at the Madison Square Garden Event in the heart of his NYC. Geraldo is a loyal friend but more faithful to the Constitution. Like Liz Cheney, he's stood up to MAGA and reaped the whirlwind. Geraldo Rivera risked his life many times and discusses mortality.   We are delighted mid-way to be joined by Erica Rivera, Geraldo’s brilliant, fun, and youthful wife, who explains how she turned down dinner at Mar-A-Lago for good reasons. Learn what she thought of her husband's FNC colleagues. And how she's got her hubby's back. https://x.com/geraldorivera/status/1850916624095732176?s=46&t=TS_28uoNMsyy3AjHXFRqhg   The Rivera family recently lost Geraldo’s beloved older sister, Irene Rivera Hurst, at 83. Before she passed, Irene voted for VP Harris and saw her little brother Geraldo do the same. Irene was an extraordinary wife and mother. Geraldo revered his accomplished, compassionate, loving, and kind sister.   Learn about Geraldo’s breaking points with his friend Trump. Go behind the scenes at Mar-A-Lago and the Fox News Channel. Geraldo Rivera was in the belly of the beast, and fate has made him an essential influencer in the most important election of all time.   Who better to ask about Trump’s fascination with mobster Al Capone than Geraldo? Was the firing squad threat on Liz Cheney mobsterism? Will it cause people to vote in droves against Trump? Or just the opposite? The host is confident of the VP's victory, but Geraldo is more skeptical.   Troubadour Dave Gunders persuasively argues that Kamala and Tim should get your vote on his birthday, Nov. 5. Gunders appreciates his close Hispanic bandmate/friend, T Valladares, for whom he wrote this week’s song, "My Ska Brother." It could apply to Geraldo's friendship, too.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-B5tkfsYlSU&list=PLrkXwZ_bwlXb1YOKerTdLWujuh0_aCmRf&index=12

    Episode 239 - Wellington Webb

    Rundown -   Intro - 00:35   Wellington Webb - 10:33   Troubadour Dave Gunders - 01:11:24   "Can I Ask for Everything?" by Dave Gunders - 01:27:08   Outro - 01:33:15   Wellington Webb came to Denver as an 11-year-old asthmatic but soon became a Colorado legislative leader, Denver’s elected Auditor, and then Denver’s strong and successful three-term Democratic mayor (1991-2003).   Just back from Nevada, where he went door-to-door for Kamala Harris, Mayor Webb gives his insights on problems Kamala Harris will have to overcome to win over some voters, including too many women who won’t vote for a female.   A champion doorknocker, Mayor Webb recalls his 42-day-and-night walk through Denver that won him the election in 1991. Channel Nine and East High debates against late Denver DA Norm Early were decisive in 1991, and the debate victor, Mayor Webb, reviews highlights with pleasure.   Former Denver Mayor Wellington Webb recalls three major Denver protests and how he handled the civil unrest. He reviews and critiques Trump’s authoritarian threats to quell civil demonstrations. But what about the Constitution? That was always Mayor Webb’s touchstone.   Denver’s Nuggets are off to a rocky start, possibly related to Russell Westbrook. Mayor Webb laments the loss of KCP, and Uncle Jeff Green's departure caused the Nuggets to slide last season. The out-of-state pro sports owners of Colorado franchises are critiqued.   Mayor Webb is unhappy with Denver's current feelings and conditions. He gives a frank assessment of problems (e.g., 16th Street Mall) in the Mile High City and explains the essentials of bringing a swagger back to the capital city of Colorado.   Troubadour Dave Gunders provides his entertaining song "Can I Ask for Everything?" How about the Democrats win the Presidency, Senate, and House? How will the women of America react to this threat to their autonomy? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUqSWAqv_sQ   The host describes his feelings after a swing state tour of Georgia (MLK Center) and North Carolina. The capitulation of WaPo and LA Times to MAGA is discussed and ripped. This is how fascism does its damage. We keep going. Electoral tension builds with voting well underway.

    Episode 238 - Stan Garnett

    Rundown -   Intro - 00:35   Stan Garnett in the Inner Sanctum of Craig's Lawyers' Lounge - 17:58   Troubadour Dave Gunders - 47:14   "Billy B and the Fair-Skinned Girl" by Dave Gunders - 55:16   Outro - 01:01:32   Trump’s fascist threats to use the military against political opponents and critics are a nightmare. The movie "The Apprentice" was viewed and reviewed. The host asked Roger Stone about Trump and Roy Cohn. He said, watch this movie, Citizen Cohn. Check out Ep. 159 and this trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtQNGUIw2Hg&t=16s   Superstar Colorado lawyer and former longtime Boulder District Attorney Stan Garnett enters the Inner Sanctum of Craig’s Lawyers’ Lounge to discuss current events. He views it all from the sensational new Colorado law firm he just formed, Garnett Powell Maximon Barlow & Farbes.   Stan Garnett is an active trial lawyer who won an award for representing Dominion Voting Systems during Trump’s 2020 Big Lie, garnering the Steve Farber Award from his old firm. We talk about MTG’s outrageous claim on Alex Jones that Dominion is fixing GA votes now in 2024.   Trump’s behavior is increasingly fascist, and we discuss the threat, especially as it relates to the thoroughly Trump-defamed and victimized Paul Pelosi. Now, the would-be dictator again threatens an octogenarian home invasion attempted homicide victim.   Stan Garnett has also recently represented Aurora apartment owners who wanted better reactions from Aurora Police, but he disputes that Venezuelan street gangs took over apartment buildings. The former Boulder DA responds to Trump’s over-the-top Colorado rhetoric and exaggerations.   We discuss the sad situation where the FBI and White House blocked meaningful follow-up on sexual assault allegations against Justice Kavanaugh. Garnett stands by the credibility of the vital accuser, his client, Deb Ramirez. Listen as Stan Garnett addresses his critics in the media.   Troubadour Dave Gunders brings us his classic crime story song, "Billy B and the Fair Skinned Girl." We also discuss the host’s encounter with former US Acting AG Sally Yates at a Thursday Lawyers for Harris fundraiser in downtown Denver. https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=hLoy0P2NdKo

    Episode 237 - Thom Hartmann

    Rundown -    Intro - 00:35   Thom Hartmann - 08:56   Troubadour Dave Gunders - 43:50   "Good To Believe" by Dave Gunders - 57:01   Outro - 01:01:59   Donald Trump made a fool of himself in Aurora, CO, just hours before Kol Nidre and Yom Kippur 5785. The host hits on the numerous lowlights. Trump is whipping up hate in Colorado, but he’s looking like a sweaty loser. https://www.c-span.org/video/?c5136337/president-trump-announces-operation-aurora-illegal-immigration   Trump promises death to anybody who gets in his way. He tries out capital punishment talk in Aurora, where the Colorado death penalty went to die when DA George Brauchler lost his DA Office’s effort in the Aurora theater massacre.   World-famous radio talk show host Tom Hartmann explains the attempted MAGA fascist takeover of America. The threat is spelled out in his fine new book, The Hidden History of the American Dream: The Demise of the Middle Class – And How to Rescue Our Future. https://www.thomhartmann.com/   Hartmann begins his book with this quote by FDR: “The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than the democratic state itself. That, in its essence, is fascism: ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any controlling private power.”   Hartmann is an expert on economics, history, politics, ADHD, and religion. Thom Hartmann’s America's number one listened-to progressive talk show host, with 7 million weekly listeners. He’s also an accomplished entrepreneur, clergyman, and world traveler. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thom_Hartmann   We discussed his radio career, including his time on AM760 in Denver. Hartmann explains what happened to Air America and how corporate media (including Mitt Romney’s Bain Capital) destroyed AM radio’s being objective and entertaining. ClearChannel was never the same after that and became more and more right-wing.   Hartmann recalls his interactions with Michael Medved and Salem Media. The AM radio takeover by billionaires paved the way for blue states to become GOP-red, being propagandized by Rush Limbaugh and other hate talkers demonizing the “Left.”   October 7 massacre was memorialized and discussed with Troubadour Dave Gunders, who brought us his song, "Good To Believe," right on time for the deeply meaningful Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur. Hashem’s healing power gets reviewed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FVnRA3VemQ

    Episode 236 - John Jackson (Colorado member of Ukrainian Armed Forces)

    Rundown -    Intro - 00:35   John Jackson - 35:55   Troubadour Dave Gunders - 01:48:49   "New Last Chance" by Dave Gunders - 02:10:33   Outro - 02:15:37   This is a Jewish High Holidays freedom-loving special with the show’s Ukraine correspondent, John Jackson. Jackson is back in Ukraine after returning to Colorado to repair his wounds. Follow John Jackson on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/@JJUkraine   The show begins with the host ripping deteriorating, sociopathic Trump for calling Kamala mentally impaired from birth, and everybody can see she’s missing something. Trump is projecting and confessing. Jack Smith has an air-tight January 6 case, so Trump is threatening violence. John Jackson despises and fights fascism. He loves freedom. https://x.com/hissgoescobra   Still, the MAGA broadcast and social media sycophants stay on board with Trump despite his non-stop lying and dark threats. The mainstreaming of MAGA via Caplis Law and DA George Brauchler gets reviewed.    Tina Peters was the Mesa County Clerk and Recorder. She took part in Trump’s Big Lie. Mesa County District Court Judge Matthew Barrett sentenced Peters to nine years, and we have heard the sound. Now, Judge Barrett is receiving threats. https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/colorado-judge-sentenced-election-denier-tina-peters-prison-114519167   Another election denier with power is Republican VP nominee J.D. Vance. John Jackson lets loose on the shady senator from Ohio who has decided to defame and destroy Ukraine as if an agent of Putin. Vance would surrender Kyiv and Kherson, two Ukrainian cities under attack.   Dots get connected to Trump, who will sell out Ukraine if elected, as he’s done before. Consider the mobster strong arm Trump keeps putting on the heroic Volordomor Zelenskyy, the brave Jewish president of Ukraine. https://x.com/irgarner/status/1839688519955935400   Mark Cuban’s strong guesting on white-boy podcasts gets played and reviewed. Cuban punches up at Musk and Trump, two rich guys he knows fairly well. The Mark Cuban family will also be celebrating Rosh Hashanah as proud Jews.   Israel is at war on many fronts. Jackson expertly reviews Israel’s decisive military moves of late. What should the Jewish State do next to respond to Tuesday’s barrage of missiles aimed by Iran at Tel Aviv? Jackson and the host are aggressive against Tehran and taking out nukes.   The dots are connected between the wars faced by Israel and Ukraine. Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran all take marching orders from Russian President Vlad Putin. The Russian leader’s despicable bunker mentality gets analyzed, and we discuss his associations with Donald Trump and Elon Musk.   Troubadour Dave Gunders is getting much better following full right knee replacement surgery. His “New Last Chance” song is perfect for the Days of Awe between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Concerts by Garth Brooks and the Eagles in Vegas get reviewed. The boys have an awesome discussion of current events.

    Episode 235 - North Carolina Judge Bob Orr

    Rundown -    Intro - 00:35   Judge Bob Orr in Craig's Lawyers' Lounge - 14:45   Troubadour Dave Gunders - 01:25:44   "It Hurts Me Too" by Dave Gunders - 01:41:16   Outro - 01:47:11   Prominent North Carolina Republican mainstay and NC Supreme Court Justice Bob Orr returns to show (Ep. 88) with his home state in the headlines. NC Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson is a hot MAGA mess, and Hurricane Helene has just wreaked havoc.   Bob Orr ran for Governor in North Carolina as a Republican in 2008. The GOP was different then. After his celebrated exit in 2016 at the Cleveland GOP national convention, Orr has led the Never Trump movement. https://www.youtube.com/live/gu_xkKuGguM   Now, Bob Orr is an asset for the Harris-Walz campaign in the key state of North Carolina. Find out how that happened. He’s a principled North Carolina conservative who loves the law and calls out racism and misogyny. https://www.citizen-times.com/videos/news/local/elections/2024/09/18/longtime-republican-speaks-at-walz-rally-denounces-gop/75280599007/   Bob knows Appalachia but is not impressed by JD Vance. He is impressed by Governor Tim Walz, with whom he interacted. The guest and host mainly admire Kamala Harris's talented attorney skills. We wonder about the bigotry of people who call her dumb.   We remember Al Campanis in 1987: “They may not have some of the necessities.” And Dan Caplis from Denver Unified Reich Trump Radio on 9.24.24: “There is some kind of impairment with her (Kamala Harris) and I can't diagnose it from the outside. There’s something that renders her unable to do the things necessary to be president.”   MAGA propaganda is horrific, especially when it comes from the United States Supreme Court. We discuss how the Rule of Law is now on the line and some special statutes in NC that may allow its GOP super-majority to make mischief.   Israel’s pounding of Hezbollah in Beirut was discussed as Benjamin Netanyahu delivered his speech at the United Nations in New York. The world's nations are not too united, and Army vet Bob Orr discussed his military service. Does Bibi have clean hands?   Mitt Romney now fears retribution and may leave America if Trump is elected. Bob Orr asked about fears of retribution. Trump has told all Jews, Catholics, and seniors that their heads should be examined if we vote against him. Lord, help us.   Troubadour Dave Gunders brings his cover of Elmore James’ blues song “It Hurts Me Too.” Hurt people hurt other people, and we discuss why Netanyahu and Donald Trump do the things they do. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zvqprTLcApI

    Episode 234 - Denver District Attorney Beth McCann

    Rundown -   Intro - 00:35   Beth McCann in the Inner Sanctum of Craig's Lawyers' Lounge - 08:07   Troubadour Dave Gunders - 01:25:32   "Some Days" by Dave Gunders - 01:28:04   Outro - 01:33:35   Denver District Attorney Beth McCann makes a historic trip into the Inner Sanctum of Craig’s Lawyers’ Lounge. She’s about to conclude two terms and will be stepping off the public stage, but not without some public expressions, as you will hear.   Beth McCann is a trailblazing figure in Denver's legal landscape. She was sworn in as the city's first female District Attorney on January 10, 2017. Her journey to this historic position reflects groundbreaking achievements and a commitment to public service.   McCann spent her childhood moving frequently due to her father's career as an Army colonel, including stints in Japan and Taiwan. Inspired by feminist role models, she pursued higher education to establish a career. McCann graduated magna cum laude from Wittenberg University in Springfield, Ohio.   Former President Trump is now stirring up hate against lawful Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio, and he’s telling lies about Aurora, Colorado. McCann assures us that Denver law enforcement will be ready if Trump comes to our neighboring city of Aurora.   Like California AG-Elect Kamala Harris, who was also elected on the first Tuesday of November 2016, Denver DA-Elect Beth McCann felt queasy about our country despite achieving her lifetime pinnacle job. Eight years later, Beth McCann voluntarily surrendered power to her successor, John Walsh (Ep 193), whom she endorsed.    McCann's legal journey began at Georgetown University Law School in 1971, where she was one of only a handful of women in her class. After graduating in 1974, she moved to Denver, becoming only the second female law clerk for Colorado's U.S. District Court Judge Sherman G. Finesilver.   McCann served as a deputy and then Chief Deputy District Attorney in Denver from 1975 to 1982, prosecuting hundreds of cases. In the early 1990s, McCann became Denver's first female Manager of Safety under Mayor Wellington Webb.   For eight years, McCann served as Deputy Attorney General for Civil Litigation and Employment Law for the Colorado Attorney General’s Office. McCann was also a four-term elected state representative for HD 8 in Denver, focusing on criminal justice matters and health care reform.   McCann has long been a strong advocate for women in the legal profession. She is a founding member and former president of the Colorado Women's Bar Association, and she explains why most of her new hires are female prosecutors.   Kamala Harris’s virtues as a fellow big-city prosecutor are extolled. Beth and Kamala have inevitably faced specific difficult everyday top prosecutor experiences. We agree that Tim Walz is a fine man and educator. We talk with Denver DA McCann about character and leadership.   McCann explains her recent decision no charges will be filed in connection with a deadly shooting in July at an apartment near the University of Denver. https://www.9news.com/article/news/local/du-apartment-intruder-shot-killed/73-a62f1a45-d7ce-49ed-a055-907d65887ed5   According to Denver Police, a resident returned to their apartment inside One Observatory Park around 1 a.m. on  July 21 and was startled by an intruder. The apartment building is on East Evans Avenue, just east of South University Boulevard.   We discuss how Kamala Harris said she’d shoot any intruder into her family home. Beth McCann explains the burden of proof on prosecutors and how she’s made thousands of such decisions. https://people.com/kamala-harris-tells-oprah-intruder-getting-shot-if-try-to-break-in-8716045   Show Troubadour Dave Gunders plays hurt, coming off the recovery table from knee replacement surgery and offering his toe-tapping song "Some Days." Some days this week started off bad for NC Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson, who had nasty laundry exposed. It could not happen in

We'll break down Kamala's zingers and Dave's political priorities. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zdvhlsFYjU   In the opening monologue, the host analyzes Trump's bad week, calls out his lies about Springfield and Aurora, and addresses the antics of his controversial supporters, Laura Loomer and Dan Caplis. The host takes pride in fellow former prosecutor Kamala Harris's strong showing.   And throughout it all, get ready for some "ice-cold" humor as Mike, Dave, and I serve our best iceberg jokes!
