No Pets Were Eaten During the Making of this Episode (feat. Sen. Michael Bennet)

The Get More Smarter Podcast - A Weekly Show About Colorado Politics

Send us a message! Really!

This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, with less than two months to go until the biggest election of our lives, Kamalamentum is still picking up speed...or is it? The media, and apparently a decently large slice of the American electorate, are grading Donald Trump on a rollercoaster sized curve; we ask, 'Why the hell are they doing that?' Then, our newest segment, "Game of Groans," is back to try and figure out who the hell is actually running the Colorado GOP and (spoiler alert) we still don’t actually know.
Republican Politicians? Fox News Anchors? Extremely online right wing trolls? Venezuelan Gangs? Who has really taken over an Aurora Apartment Complex and why the hell don’t we actually know the answer at this point? And we wrap up with some reporting on our 8th favorite member of Congress from Colorado, who is the clear personification of why competitive congressional districts are very good things to have. BUT FIRST, you know him as Colorado’s Senior United States Senator because he is Colorado’s Senior United States Senator! Michael Bennet is back on the pod to talk 2024, the child tax credit, and JD Vance.
