Famed Republican ad-maker and now harsh Trump critic,  Stuart Stevens joins the show. He’s a 1974 Colorado College grad and Mitt Romney’s former presidential chief strategist when Romney was the GOP nominee defeated by incumbent President Obama.
 
Relive all the Colorado moments along the way including when Mitt Romney suffered a pixie dust (glitter) attack in Denver’s Auraria complex. A CU-Denver student was the perpetrator.

Stuart Stevens, a key figure in the Lincoln Project, is dedicated to defeating Donald Trump and the authoritarian threat he poses. His unique perspective on Trump's campaign, which he analogizes to a paper bag holding water, provides a fascinating insight.

Stevens has authored "It Was All a Lie: How the Republican Party Became Donald Trump" and "The Conspiracy to End America: Five Ways My Old Party Is Driving Democracy to Autocracy." Stevens has a brilliant way of seeing things and he’s seen the collapse of the Republican Party into dangerous Trumpism.

Stevens provides the way out with a discussion of national security Democrats. We contemplate the endorsements and nationwide tour of Taylor Swift and George W. Bush on a tour bus containing all the Cheney ladies (Colorado College grads), driven by Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan right into the swing states.
 
A pivotal election happens Tuesday, June 25, 2024, in Colorado. This includes the statewide CU Regent race, featuring show favorite Charles “CJ” Johnson. Discover why ex-CU QB, CJ, could be a significant asset to Colorado and CU if elected a Regent.

Running for office, including for CU Regent, requires immense courage. We delve into the Father’s Day demonstration at the Greenwood Village home of Ilana Siegel, a CU Regent, who was targeted for being Jewish. Learn about CJ’s reaction to this indecent protest.

Troubadour Dave Gunders provides a “rocking” love song provocatively titled "Not All About Love." Dave Gunders again pays tribute to the Rolling Stones who rolled through Denver again on 6/20/24. There are lessons aplenty in this fast-paced tune.
