So why create a podcast about all things Colorado? I realized that there weren't enough of us sharing our Colorado experience. I wanted to dig beneath the surface and share what it's like to live in Colorado. I also wanted to share the amazing people, cool things we're doing, and yes, even share our dirty laundry in an effort to improve life in our state.
