    6-3-26 *INTERVIEW* Dan Coil Setting the Record Straight on New State Firearms Safety Program

    Colorado's new firearms regulations are set to take effect on August 1st, and if you're planning to purchase certain semi-automatic firearms, you'll need to navigate a new process. This episode breaks down the key details of Senate Bill 3, which requires a background check and a firearms safety course for those looking to acquire these types of guns. The new regulations apply to a list of semi-automatic firearms, which was released by the Department of Revenue on May 15th. The list is 152 pages long and includes popular models like AR-15 rifles and handguns. If you're interested in purchasing one of these firearms, you'll need to apply for an eligibility card, which involves a digital application and a background check. Once you've obtained the card, you'll need to complete a firearms safety course, either the four-hour basic course or the twelve-hour course, depending on your prior training. The course will be taught by private entities, not the Colorado Parks and Wildlife department, and will cover the same curriculum regardless of the location. The instructor will enter your completion into the database, allowing you to purchase the firearm immediately. But don't worry, this process is not a possession law - if you already own one of these firearms, you're not affected. If you're planning to buy an AR-15 or other semi-automatic firearm, tune in to this episode to learn more about the new regulations and how to navigate the process. Our guest, Dan Coil, Firearms Safety Program Manager for Colorado Parks and Wildlife, shares the details of the new law and provides valuable insights into what to expect.

    6-2-26 *INTERVIEW* Gaye Ribble on Buying, Selling and Renting in the Denver Housing Market

    In Denver's housing market, a perfect storm is brewing. With a 60% increase in inventory compared to this time last year, the city is experiencing a significant shift. The usual supply and demand dynamics are out of balance, and buyers are struggling to find affordable options. The market is being driven by a perfect combination of factors, including the fact that Colorado is the least affordable state in the country. This, coupled with a declining population and fewer buyers, is making it tough for sellers to find willing buyers. A recent report from Realtor.com highlights Denver's position as the market with the fastest falling home values, a trend that's been ongoing for a few months. Jeana discusses the importance of realistic pricing with their guest, Gaye Ribbel, a team leader for the Empower Home Team with Keller Williams. Gaye shares insights on the current market trends and the challenges sellers are facing. They also touch on the topic of sellers who are holding onto unrealistic expectations, and the impact this has on the market. If you're considering buying or selling a home in Denver, this episode is a must-listen. Gaye shares valuable advice on how to navigate the current market and make informed decisions. Tune in to hear the full conversation and learn how to succeed in today's competitive housing market. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    6-2-26 *INTERVIEW* Randal O’Toole Explains Why Front Range Rail is Another Big Boondoggle

    This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in transportation policy and the latest on the Front Range Rail project. Ross and Randal dive into the financials of the project, questioning its viability and the benefits it promises to deliver. With a keen eye for detail, the speaker breaks down the numbers and reveals the true cost of this proposed rail line. The Front Range Rail project has been touted as a solution to traffic congestion in the region, but Randal argues that it's a costly endeavor that won't deliver the promised benefits. With a focus on the financials, Randal highlights the staggering costs of building and operating the rail line, and how it will likely cost taxpayers $50 to $60 per rider. Randal also compares the proposed rail line to buses, pointing out that buses are a more efficient and effective way to move people. Randal also touches on the broader issue of why rail projects like this one keep getting proposed despite their questionable financials. It seems that the allure of trains is just too great, and the promise of reducing traffic congestion is often an empty one. Randal shares a fascinating story about a Super Bowl event where buses were used to transport fans, and how they were able to move people in and out of the stadium with ease, while trains struggled to keep up. If you're interested in learning more about the Front Range Rail project and the broader issues surrounding transportation policy, this episode is a must-listen. Randal brings a dose of reality to the conversation, and offers a critical perspective on the proposed rail line. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
