The next Mandy Connell Adventure takes us back to some of MY FAVORITE places for a Rhein River adventure that is luxury all the way! We start in Zurich and Lucerne, Switzerland, which you know I love, before hopping onto the beautiful Emerald Dawn river cruise ship to sail up the river, stopping at so many super cool destinations, before ending up in Amsterdam, another favorite city of mine! Find out all the details here, but we've already booked quite a few cabins from former travelers so don't sleep on this. And we are NOT going in the summer when it is so bloody hot. It's October 8th-17th of NEXT year so you have plenty of time to make payments to go with us. I am SUPER excited about this one because I've already been to some of

RICH GUGGENHEIM IS TRYING TO SAVE KIDS And he's continuing his work against gender affirming care, which is why he shared a recent panel at the FTC. He's on today to talk about that and more.

SENATOR BARB KIRKMEYER KNOWS COLORADO'S BUDGET AND MORE And she joins me today at 1pm for a chat about budget shortfalls and the very possible special session that Governor Polis is going to call soon. We'll get the details from the best person to give them, as she's been on the Appropriations and Joint Budget Committees in the last few years. This should be good.KYLE CLARK SHELLACKS DOUGCO COMMISSIONERS I can't even believe they are not apologizing and moving on after George Teal said that the Chinese Communist Party was meddling in Douglas County politics.THAT TIME GROK WENT FULL NEO NAZI CAN TEACH US ABOUT AI'S LIMITATIONS If you are not a denizen of X you may not have heard about Grok (X's AI bot) going full Neo Nazi and praising Adolph Hitler. It was in response to a prompt asking it to NOT be politically correct and the bot went all Heil Hitler and people freaked out. But it's a good lesson about what AI currently is, and that is a mirror.

SHORT BLOG BECAUSE ROCKIES EAT THE SHOW AT 12:30 And I'm off tomorrow and Monday so we're talking Independence Day and the Not-So Big Beautiful Bill today.OF COURSE THE BILL IS GOING TO PASS What did I say yesterday about the fake drama about the Big Beautiful Bill? I told you that there would be a good show of some of the members of the House who said this was a garbage bill and the Senate made it worse before they voted to move it along. And that is EXACTLY what happened. A seven hour procedural vote that cleared the deck for the bill to pass today, so everyone in the House can go home and talk about what a hard battle they fought but this is just how things work in Washington and gosh they wish it was different. So predictable. The bill should pass this morning. I have mixed feelings about this. I'm glad the tax cuts are permanent because if taxes had jumped right now it would crush people who are already being crushed by inflation's impact. But this bill just moves us closer to insolvency. I hope beyond a

I SAW A GREAT SHOW SUNDAY NIGHT And it's part of a place called The Roaming Gnome Theater where someone took a garage and retrofitted into a cute little theater for various groups to use. And this weekend, the second cast (there are two) performs the delightful musical SIX about Henry VIII's six wives with a cast made up of high school and college age women. It's not Broadway, but they did an AMAZING job and I asked the young woman who directed the show to visit today at 1 to talk about it, so Brooklyn Stevens pops on then. Buy tickets to this weekend's perf
