Send us a textA divided world doesn’t fix itself, but it can change when ordinary people choose small, steady acts of kindness. We dive into the power of compassion as a practical tool for rebuilding trust, cutting through polarization, and bringing depth back to our relationships. From the limits of social media to the warmth of face to face care, we share why kindness is contagious, how children mirror what we model, and what it takes to turn good intentions into daily habits that actually

Send us a textCats aren’t just internet icons; they’re companions with a deep history and a real need for our care. We take a warm, practical tour through National Cat Day, exploring why this celebration exists, how cats became fixtures in human life, and what we can do—today—to support feline welfare. From the purr that calms you after a hard day to the comic chaos of a living room zoom, we focus on the everyday joy cats bring while grounding the conversation in action that matters.We talk through

Send us a textGrocery bills keep climbing, food banks brace for record demand, and small stores feel the pinch—none of that is accidental. We dig into why cuts to SNAP benefits do more than shrink household budgets; they pull billions from local economies, stress schools and employers, and nudge prices higher for everyone.

A near miss at Skyline High School puts Colorado’s long shadow back in the spotlight and forces us to ask tougher questions about what truly keeps students safe. We walk through what happened, why “this time” isn’t enough, and how a quarter-century of tragedies and scares—from Columbine to STEM—reveals patterns that policies alone haven’t fixed.

Think you know Denver’s eastern neighbor? Aurora defies the cliché with a story that runs from prairie tracks to late night karaoke, from Buckley Field’s aviation roots to a modern web of light rail, research labs, craft breweries, and global kitchens that stay open past midnight. We open the map to show how transit, the Anschutz Medical Campus, and mixed use neighborhoods turned a once sleepy suburb into a destination with its own pulse.We walk through the city’s nightlife corridors—Havana Street’s

Two worlds, one citywide rhythm: we start inside Denver’s living rooms and legendary small rooms—where house shows shake the floorboards and community venues turn newcomers into headliners—then move into the glow of rooftops, warehouses, and high-production clubs that define the city after dark. Along the way, we spotlight the artists and organizers who make it all hum: Amanda Hawkins bridging folk-country roots with modern indie production, The Irie Still holding down Colorado’s reggae lineage with

First snowfall changes everything. The peaks get a fresh dusting, boards come out of storage, and the town starts humming with a promise: the day doesn’t end when the lifts stop—it just changes rhythm. We tap into that shift and map the perfect line from fresh powder to Aspen’s after-dark spectrum, helping you match your post-ski mood with the right room, sound, and plate.We start with the timeless pull of J-Bar at the Hotel Jerome, a heritage spot where classic cocktails meet the warm confidence of

A layoff wave hit boardrooms—and then it hit the streets. We follow the ripple effect from tech and finance to the front seat of a rideshare, where a sudden surge of new drivers collided with flat demand, shrinking incentives, and algorithms that decide who gets the next ping. Along the way, we share a raw story from a former corporate recruiter who pivoted to black car rides, only to watch reliable $300 days stretch into two-day slogs as miles climbed and net pay fell.We unpack how platform
