Speaker 1 (00:00):
Le's talk about the pedestrian bridge. Let's do it. Has
the project changed? So here's where we're launching today.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
We are trying to figure out whether people want to
see a pedestrian bridge at the capitol and so we
are launching a survey today State White Survey CEO one
fifty walkway dot com, so we describe the project. Takes
less than five minutes, So CEO one fifty walkway dot com,
I encourage you to fill it out. It'll be up
through Monday nights. So we're hoping to get thousands, tens
of thousands of people to say whether they want to
(00:27):
see this done or not, because we now's the time
when we need to figure out there's one hundred.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
And fiftiethday next year. What we're asking people, do you
want to do the walkway? Do not want to do
the walkway? We're describing it. I'm even we're even gonna
put up your.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
Video what people are saying so people can see how
you don't like it and you know, make their decision.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
And then if they.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Don't want it, what do they want to see the
state doing? Should we do smaller projects in another parts
of the state. Should we do nothing? For one hundred
and fifty birthday. So we just asked four or five
questions get a quick sense of where people are. We
want to make it as unobtrusive as easy as possible
to have your voice count.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
He is such a spass governor.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Shared Polus is the fast talking, the free wheel in
I'm not talking like Rick Flair, freewheeling limousine Ryding. That's no, no,
no no, that's not Jared Polis. Ryan Scherling live, coming
right at you in living color. Zach Segers on the
other side of the glass. I always appreciate his time
in hell. But Kelly cauchera sticking around for this topic
here today and I want your input as well. At
(01:19):
five seven seven three nine, So let's start right there.
You have the Bridge over the River Quai. Ever see
that movie. That's a classic nineteen fifty seven, way back
when I think Alec Guinnis is in it. Obi Wan
Kenobi from the original Star Wars scrape movie. You have
a Bridge over Troubled Water. A tremendous song. It was
sung at my parents' wedding by my mom's own request.
(01:40):
Simon and Garfunkel there but on the way back in
nineteen seventy one, and then you have the bridge to Nowhere.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
She's probably heard of this.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
This exists, by the way, and I believe Kelly, if
I'm not mistaken in your home state of California.
Speaker 4 (01:52):
Indeed, yes, one of the things we're very proud of.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
What is the bridge to nowhere?
Speaker 4 (01:57):
As you understand it, Basically it was only I think
they only built like a very small portion of it
and then they ran out of funding. So it just basically.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Sits Boondogo project in other world.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
Right now, Colorado is getting the bridge you knowwhere, because
you know, they love what California does. So Poulus, you know,
looked at it and said, you know what, we need
a commemorative pedestrian bridge because yeah, people are going to
use that.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
So the website you mentioned while talking about one hundred
and fifty miles an hour is co one fifty walkway
dot com pop quiz hotshots those of you in the
listening audience and to Zach and Kelly, and I didn't
have to look this up because I was there for
Paintney Michigan's one hundred and fiftieth birthday and that's coming
(02:50):
up for Colorado next year. You might remember Centennial is
a place here in Metro Denver because in eighteen seventy six,
Colorado was founded on the centennial anniversary of our Republic,
our constitutional republic known as the United States of America
founded seventeen seventy six, Colorado eighteen seventy six. He had
(03:11):
the bi centennial for the United States in nineteen seventy six.
I was not quite two when that happened on July
fourth that year.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
I don't remember it.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
But I'm getting hankered up for the two hundredth anniversary,
two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of America coming up in twenty
twenty six, and of course President Trump will preside over that.
Arnold Schwarzenegger's gonna have a big role in that. But
do you know the question trivia? Either Zach or Kelly
feel free to chime in. What do you call a
(03:41):
one hundred and fiftieth anniversary? One hundred and fiftieth? What
is that called? If one hundred is a centennial?
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Do you know? TikTok venture? Guess hazard? I guess Kelly,
Zach either one centennial and a half.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
I like that, and it works. It's true, but technically
not the actual name. You're looking it up, Kelly, I
see what you're doing over there. If anybody out there
knows and you sent the text along, I will give
you full credit for.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
This class hour.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
This is a scrabble word.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Yes, I'll go ahead and tell the people if you
looked it up, can you say it.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Says Qui Centennials Cessqua Centennial.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
And in Pinkney, Michigan, that was nineteen eighty five, because
Pinkney was founded in eighteen thirty five. And of course
Michigan is a little bit older than Colorado. But here
comes Colorado Cessqui Centennial. And what does Jared Polus want?
He wants a walkway. He wants a bridge to nowhere,
a pedestrian bridge that goes over well, not exactly the
greatest area in.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
The capitol downtown there.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
And it might be not the types of visuals and
optics that you might associate, but the whope might be
if you beautify this area, this type of project that
a rising tide lifts all boats.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
And I've seen this happen.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
I've seen this happen in Detroit in the Stadium district
where you built up around Comerica Park, where the Tigers play,
and then Field right across the street where the Lions play,
and the Little Caesars Arena just down the block where
the Pistons and the Red Wings play.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
And then you got the.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
Fox Theater, you got Greek Town, you got this whole
business center, you got millennials and gen Z's like Zach
moving back downtown to Detroit. That would have been unheard
of in the seventies and eighties post Riots mean Detroit
was a punchline. There's a reason why Axel Foley in
Beverly Hills Cop is from Detroit, because what would be
the opposite of Beverly Hills in nineteen eighty four Detroit
(05:26):
and Gil Hill as the police chief and Axel Foley
as a detective on the hard street to Detroit and
he brings that street sense to Beverly Hills where they
have no clue what's going on. Taggart, you know it
sets up for a wonderful film. If you've never seen it,
you gotta see it, Zach. Have you seen Beverly Hills Cop?
The original?
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Think I've seen all three?
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Okay, good good for you man, good for you, I thought,
Axel f I'm not the song, but the follow up,
this sequel that was just on Netflix. Christian Tote and
I disagreed on that one. I found it missed the
mark a little bit, and I was a little sad
because I wanted to like it. Anyway, it can happen beautification,
it can have positive impact consequences in a good way.
(06:06):
Maybe for Denver, maybe we need that. I'm just leaving
the door open here. I'm trying not to buy us
and poison the well here against Jared Polis just because
it's him and it's his idea, but it's also his
vanity project. This is going to be his signature that
he leaves us swift. The autograph on the city and
the state Denver in Colorado is eight years in office.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
Will he be remembered?
Speaker 3 (06:25):
Will it be called Jaredpolis Walkway or Jaredpolis Way or
Jaredpolis Bridge. I'm sure he wants that, deep down, he
wants that. This guy is an eagle maniac. But if
you want to participate in the survey, I'll say it
more slowly than he did. CO one fifty walkway dot com,
a's co one five oh walkway dot com. Let's play along,
(06:49):
Let's spin the wheel. Let's play the feud. KELLICOCHERI you
got the website over there, Zach, you two you.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Can do it too. I already voted this morning. Okay,
don't tell me how you voted yet.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
Because Kyle Clark, comrade, Kyle, our good friend, he's the
only one, one of few that has access to Governor Polis.
And you could tell I'm watching this. So the whole
thing is about ten minutes. I'm gonna just play you
the hits, Okay, the greatest hits from this, and they
are early on in the conversation. Well, what I noticed
Polis is obviously I don't know nervous is the word,
but he's on edge because he knows this idea isn't
(07:20):
popular and he's trying to sell it. Right, He's trying
to sell ketchup popsicles to an Eskimo with white gloves.
That's the old joke. Can I say, I can't even
say eskimon into it? Can I say into it? Let'll
just say it that way, Okay. I don't want to
offend anybody out there.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Really.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
By the way, there's a movie that Toto and I
saw last night. We'll get to that, but wow, go
see it. It's weird and it's crazy and whatever, but
it's so anti PC. It was delicious anyway, selling the idea,
selling the drama, as the Group Live might put it.
Governor Jared Polis, he's putting out a pole let the
(07:55):
people decide Poncious Polis, as I call him. This is
this is totally him, remember, like, this is what he
wants to do. He wants to wash his hands up,
you know, just offer up Barabas or Jesus and go, hey,
out of my hands. I don't want to make this call.
You guys decide which one we crucify. It's up to you,
and then I can live a guilt free life and
(08:15):
have no association with the decision. He is trying to
distance himself from this decision, and that leads to this
question that Comrade Kyle asks him, and the one other
thing I want to say before we play. All these
Polus's answers get noticeably shorter with each question that Kyle
Clark asks.
Speaker 5 (08:34):
So online survey, I can't tell if you're looking for
a justification, we'll looking for an escape route.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
Well, I'm hoping it's clear one way or the other, Kyle, Right,
Like what I would hate to see is fifty point
one to forty nine point nine. I'm really hoping sixty
seventy percent of people want to see a walkway. Sixty
seventy percent of people don't want to see a walkway,
want to see something else. If it is a walkway,
I need to get to work is you know, I
need to raise a lot of the money for that.
It's about eight and a half a million public, about
ten twelve million private, So I would need to raise
(09:01):
that if.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
We go that way. If we go other away and do.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Smaller projects in other areas of the state, we can
see if there's local matching funds we can raise for those.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
But now it's really the time to figure that out.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Our birthday is next year, and we want to make
sure that Colorado is celebrate in a way where where
we're proud to do that.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
And feel ownership of it.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Okay, there's one area this I got to address right
out of the gate before we get to any of that.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Again.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
Pop QUI is going to put both of you on
the spot, Kelly Kicherra Zach Seeger, and all of you
in our listening audience. I just looked up Jared Polus
on the Wikipedia. Polus served as a US representative for
Colorado's second Congressional district. I believe Joe no Goose is
now in that district from two thousand and nine to
twenty nineteen. He is a Democrat. He was among the
(09:45):
richest members of Congress. His personal net worth is estimated
at zach hazard A guests Jared Polis. All the wealth
he's mom with a greeting card company that he was
able to cash in.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
How much do you think he's worth? Fifty million?
Speaker 4 (10:02):
Okay, Kelly, I'm going to say one hundred and fifty million.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Initially as he was elected governor in Colorado, it was
one hundred and twenty two point six million. His personal
net worth now again according to the search you can
use the AI whatever you want.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Check my work.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
His personal net worth is estimated at nearly four hundred
million dollars.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Jared Polis, he got to buy some groceries.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
He could write a check today without blinking and cover
the cost of this whole project if it was that
important to him. So why do we need state funds
taxpayer dollars? Always trying to find a way around tabor
for the hard working men and women of this state
that are barely getting by, that are holding on for
dear life, that are paying Russky rocketing rents and mortgages,
(10:49):
that can barely make ends meet at the end of
the month to pay their bills, but taxpayer dollars need
to cover. He keeps repeating this number. Eight point five million,
Jared Polis is worth four one hundred million dollars.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
That might be a high end estimate. But even if
we go at the.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Low end estimate, one hundred twenty two point six million,
higher than either Zach or Kelly Guest, Daddy Warbucks over
here can pay for the dan Bridge himself. Kyle Clark
points out that online polls, I mean, this is like anything,
Those can be rigged, right, totally rigged.
Speaker 5 (11:20):
You know the Internet, So you know the Internet surveys
are notoriously easy to game and manipulate. Are you guys
going to have these results publicly available? Is this going
to be binding or are you just looking for feedback?
Speaker 1 (11:32):
Yeah? So, I mean, first of.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
All, we use a lot of techniques to make it
hard to game.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
I mean, yeah, sure, somebody.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Can vote once from their phone and once from their PC.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
If you're really passionate enough to vote twice, go for it.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
But no, you can't just stand there voting multiple times
on your device and won't let you do that. We
ask your zip code. We want to know where people
are in Colorado.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
We're going to release the results as soon as we
have them.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
So whatever they are closes Monday at midnight, we should
Tuesday or Wednesday, we should know where people are at.
And I think how many people vote is important. I mean,
if only five hundred people have an opinion doesn't help
us as much as if five or ten thousand have
an opinion. So I'm hoping that again we get the
big buy in and that there's been a lot of
passion about this project. You're passionate on one side, there's
people that are passionate about it. What does that mean?
(12:11):
Sometimes you hear the loudest voices. What do people actually
want to see? Because this is our states one hundred
and fiftieth, right, and it's about our state capital, that's
our people's building.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
What should we do there? Let's get some directions from
the people of our state.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Hold on a second, are there people at the corner
bar right now? Let's say my favorite JD's bait shop
on a rappa hole and they're sitting there and they're
talking about maybe the brown ghost seasons coming up, you know,
and getting ready for camp whatnot? Hey, do you hear
about this bridge? One hundred and fiftieth anniversary downtown? What
do you think polus good idea? Does police honestly think
we believe that any individual is sitting around the local bar,
(12:46):
around the water cool at work?
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Ones?
Speaker 4 (12:47):
Man?
Speaker 1 (12:48):
You know what? I think that bridge is a great idea.
Find me one now.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
Kyle Clark, to his credit, he has skewered this project,
and most everybody that's hearing about it is doing this same, like,
why are we spending money on this?
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Our money on this.
Speaker 3 (13:03):
A boondoggle project of all the things that we need,
not want need in Colorado, In Denver, the homelessness crisis,
the budget shortfalls of the City of Denver, property tax
relief that we need and need more of. Now let's
build a bridge to nowhere. Now, Polus is cornered on
(13:24):
you know why you're doing this now? Why didn't do
this like you know, several months ago? Why did it
come to this moment?
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Is this what you should have done months ago?
Speaker 5 (13:30):
Before you announced that you were going forward with a bridge.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Well we couldn't because there was no bridge for people
to vote on, right, So I mean it has to
be in sequence. People would have not known we were
what we were talking about had we've done this three
months ago, because there was no visuals, there was no project.
So thanks to that, which is all very recent. This
is all what about a month or two. People have
been out there. People have been talking about it.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
You know, it's great. You go down to corner bar.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
People saying they love it, people say they he hated.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
It's great.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
People are feeling ownership and passionate about this. What does
that all mean and how do we kind of decipher
that into whether we do this or not.
Speaker 6 (14:03):
People are not going to the corner bar saying whether
they like it or hate it. They don't know about it,
and then what they do find out, I'm like, what, no, No,
we don't want to do this exactly.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Well, you know, both sides this could be a close vote.
I hope it's not, but nobody wants this.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
In fact, Kyle Clark points out that the six members
of the Capital Development Committee, they're not exactly on board.
Speaker 5 (14:26):
So as it currently stands, all six members of the
Capital Development Committee are a no.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Oh, that's the next step in the approval process.
Speaker 5 (14:35):
If all six of them, four Democrats, two Republicans are
all in no, will you still.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
Push forward with the project?
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Well, I think what we want to get a sense
of is the people of Colorado.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
Want this project.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
I'm sure elected officials want to know that as well
state representative, state senators. You know, if it's clear that
people want to do something else, we should do something else.
If people want to see a walkway in the People's building,
then we should work with legislators to figure out how
to get that done.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
Okay, what do the people want? We don't want this?
Be sure to vote once again. That website is cl
one fifty walkway dot com. If you're really enthused, if
you're hyped about this and you want to help Jared
pull us out by all means, vote yes. But here's
again the budget that he's citing for it, and Kyle
Clark calls him out on this.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Number two, let's talk about the price.
Speaker 5 (15:17):
Your office pitches publicly as an eighteen to twenty million
dollar project, but they knew that that was not true,
and we had to use open records to get your
internal document showing that you were proposing the project is
at twenty eight and a half million dollar project. And
that twenty eight and a half million dollars includes core
components of what was pitched to the public, things like
the art, the insurance, the permits, the general contractor fee,
(15:39):
things that couldn't be stripped out and still do the project.
Why did we have to go and get an open
records request to find out how much it actually cost?
Speaker 2 (15:45):
I disagree with some of your reporting in that area.
So the state piece, the only state piece that we're
looking at, is eight and a half. If this moves
forward and we say that, then that's clear, and the
survey too, so people know that I would have to
raise the rest and no, I don't need to get
to twenty eight. We'd probably need to raise about twelve
to get to twenty. Now that's for the CESSCA centennial.
There are another eight or ten million dollars worth of
(16:06):
projects there and.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Those would not be done for next year.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
That would fall to the next governor, to future legislators.
That could be three years, five years. That's for kind
of a master plan, and many of those will need
to happen.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Anyway, even without a walkway. Some might be unique to
the walkway.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
So the piece that we need to achieve if the
people want to move forward with this, they don't. It's
not going to be more than eight and a half
public and as they said, I would need to raise
about ten or twelve million from million from donors to
make it happen.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
King Polus from on High wants all of us, all
of you, to pay eight point five million dollars for
his vanity project.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
This is insane.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
Let's go to the survey again, co one to fifty
walkway dot com. I'll walkway, I'll walk you through it
all right here, it is below our series of questions
that will lead to the outcome of the celebration of
Colorado's one hundred fiftieth anniversary.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Voting.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
We'll close at midnight on July twenty first, twenty twenty five,
that is coming up on Monday.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
Here we go.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
Should Colorado proceed with a proposed one hundred fiftieth anniversary
walkway at the state Capitol compleat in Denver, Kelly, Yes? No?
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Or maybe on a note okay, Zach no, okay.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
If Colorado does not proceed with the one hundred and
fiftieth anniversary walkway. Would you like to see a major
one hundred fiftieth anniversary project in our state's capital city
of Denver, or several smaller scale anniversary projects in other
parts of the state that reflect our rich history in
diverse cultural history, or no anniversary projects at all, Kelly.
Speaker 4 (17:26):
No anniversary projects at all, Zach, how.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
About you several the smaller scale ones.
Speaker 7 (17:33):
Yeah, yeah, I'd like, yeah, something that that is helpful,
like the walkways, hoping nobody but maybe Golden could use
something in Yeah, for Collins could use something else, spread
the love around.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
I'm with you on that one, and that's how I voted.
I'm going to celebrate it somehow. I think that's that's
deserved and justified. One hundred fifteth anniversary. Okay, if Colorado
does proceed with the one hundred fiftieth anniversary walkway, would
you like to see the full one hundred fiftieth anniversary
walkway built as planned or the one hundred fiftieth anniversary walkway.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
We scaled back to a smaller project, Kelly.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Well, this one didn't actually have the none.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
Of the above, right, so you got to pick one.
Speaker 4 (18:08):
So probably do the scaled back version to be quite
scaled back.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
Very scaled back, Zach. I'm assuming you're the same from you.
Speaker 7 (18:16):
Yeah, they're forcing it down our throats. I at least
wanted to be as small and cheap as possible.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
And finally, twenty twenty six is just around the corner.
Exclamation point on the survey? Are you excited more excited
about Colorado's one hundred and fiftieth anniversary the United States
two hundred and fiftieth anniversary are both equally Kelly?
Speaker 4 (18:35):
United States two hundred and fiftieth.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
Zach, Colorado. I'm a Colorado native. Okay, that makes sense.
You're Colorado native, so you choose that one. I would
say us two fifty Okay, that's a quarter of a
millennia that our great country, this constitutional republic of ours,
has been intact. And that's saying quite a bit after
everything we've been through, two World wars, a Civil war,
(18:58):
the revolution itself.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
So I'm more excited about two fifty. Give me your
answers five.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
Seven, seven, three nine and fill out the survey yourself
at cl one fifty Walkway dot com.

Thanks for that poll, Zacht Simon and Garfunkle. Is that
what this is? The Jared Polis personal vanity project downtown Denver?
(21:04):
You know, I send a message to Jeriff for Steve Reams.
He'll be joining me coming up one hour from right now,
talking about the Iced deportations, working with them. The demonization
of Ice by Democrats that continues to ratchet up the
crocodile tears about Alligator alcatraz I mean, what are the
Democrats doing? Like these are criminal, illegal aliens? Do you
(21:26):
really want them here? Are you gonna fight for their right?
Speaker 1 (21:29):
To party.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
Are you gonna kill mar Abrego Garcia your way back
to the White House and control of Congress.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
I don't think so. Anyway, I asked Sheriff.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Reams Wild County about the Polis Bridge to nowhere as
we're calling it. I don't think it is a bridge
over troubled water, although there's gonna be a lot of
troubled waters underneath the bridge. If you know what I mean,
Downtown Denver, if you've been there of late, you know
what I'm talking about. And that's what Sheriff Reames goes
off on. It's blanking stupid. Clean up the homeless, don't
(21:59):
create a bridge over them. And that sums it up
pretty well. But once again here's Jared Polis. His fever
dream of this bridge is not going away.
Speaker 5 (22:08):
Is this what you should have done months ago before
you announced that you were going forward with a bridge.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
Well, we couldn't because there was no bridge for people
to vote on, right, So I mean it has to
be in sequence. People would have not known what we
were talking about had we done this three months ago,
because there was no visuals, there was no project. So
thanks to that, which is all very recent, This is
all what about a month or two, people have been
out there, people have been talking about it. You know,
(22:33):
it's great. You go down a corner bar. People saying
they love it, people say they hated.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
It's great. People are feeling ownership and passionate about this.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
So what does that all mean and how do we
kind of decipher that into whether we do this or not?
Speaker 3 (22:44):
Okay, when is the last time Governor Jared Poulis was
at a corner bar, just a regular joe, blue collar bar,
you know the kind that Sack or I might go to,
or Kelly watching a game, showing up, belly up to
the bar. When is the last time you think he
actually experienced that part of Colorado culture? You know, brupop
(23:09):
around here, a lot of craft breweries.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
I like them all. Maybe a little too much sometimes,
but definitely enough.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
And then again, if Governor Polis were a character on Cheers,
George went ip, which character would he be? Five seven
seven three nine? Zach and Kelly? No, that's before Zach's time,
but he knows what cheers, isn't it?
Speaker 1 (23:29):
Kelly? You and I grew up watching Cheers.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
We did. Indeed, which character would Jared Polis be on Cheers?
Speaker 4 (23:37):
Cliff Claven because he makes absolutely zero sense whenever it
is good.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
Explanation for everything, though, you know, and Cliff Claven did
go on he would have won Jeopardy if he didn't
bet at all in Final Jeopardy when he didn't have to.
Speaker 4 (23:52):
It's right, I do remember that at this SDE Do.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
You remember his question is losing question for Alex Trebek?
Speaker 4 (23:57):
Oh gosh, I don't.
Speaker 3 (23:59):
What is my mom's kitchen where all these people have
not been? That was the episode? Yes, I remember, Zach.
How familiar with you? How familiar with Cheers?
Speaker 1 (24:11):
Are you? On a scale of one? You know nothing?
Speaker 3 (24:13):
In ten you're a diehard fan, you personally six?
Speaker 1 (24:20):
Really? Okay? All right?
Speaker 3 (24:22):
So do you have maybe a character cut out that
Jared Poulis would fit into if he were to appear
on Cheers? That well, the one that stands out now,
Kelly said, Cliff, I'm gonna.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Have to t echo her. There was that. I have
to echo her.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
Go her. Here's what I think. He is a pointy head,
no it all? So the know it all part that
was Cliff Clayton. But he had like trivial knowledge and
he was very proud of that. Polis isn't norm. You
can throw that one right out of the window because
he's not relatable and he doesn't come in and people
have not chanted norm.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
No, no, no, no, that's not Jared Pouls. Here's what
I think.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
So you had doctor Fraser Crane, right, very intelligent guy.
He would end up having a radio show in Seattle
and spinoff a very successful spin off of my Dad.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
And then you had his.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
Brother who is even more anal retentive and nerdy, doctor
Niles Crane.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
Remember that in that dynamic.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
And then their father was just like a normal guy.
I venture I would say that Jared Polis. If those
two had a third brother that was even more awkward
and anti social and unable to incorporate himself into social situations,
then he would be.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
The third Crane brother.
Speaker 3 (25:28):
That's who I believe Jared Polus would be if you
were cast on cheers.
Speaker 4 (25:32):
Hold on, you're giving him way too much intelligence here.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
He's not a dumb guy. Oh he's not a dumb guy.
Oh he's not a knucklehead. No, I'm not gonna I'm
go that far. But is he aloof arrogant.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
Out of touch, detached from the average human, completely devoid
of any kind of capacity for compassion.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Yes, he's all those things.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
But I just think it's funny that a guy like
Jared Polis, who is as unrelatable, buttons his Polos up
to the top button. I mean, you know, brags about
wearing these tennis shoes and an attempt to look relatable,
but totally is not cannot relate to any of our experiences.
This guy was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.
I don't begrudge him of that. I'm not a democrat,
I'm not a lefty. I'm not gonna soak the rich,
eat the rich, you know, tax the rich and fund
(26:16):
the poor.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
No, no, no, no, that's fine. You know. I good
for him.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
His mother was very successful with a greeting card company
and he stood the benefit from that. That's fantastic. But
don't pretend like you're one of the common folk.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
You're not.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
You'll never will be. It just don't fit in, brother,
you don't. We'll take your tax right now, five seven, seven,
three nine. We'll get to more of these after the
break as well.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
It's great. I mentioned this one to Zach Ryan Shue.
Speaker 3 (26:41):
We can call it safe injection bridge, Yes, make it
a safe injection site.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Here's some needles, pump yourself full of heroin. But the
queen like, how is that compassionate for an addict?
Speaker 3 (26:54):
As the son of an addict my father, you know what,
here's a beer. At least it's not been tampered with.
Drink away and continue with your addiction. Please, Like, no,
you kick them off with the drugs. You don't go well,
you just scrap the idea of getting them off the drugs.
So why don't we just make sure they have clean
needles so they don't give each other aids. That's the
(27:14):
rationale behind Vancouver, folks. It's one that Michael Hancock, mayor
of Denver, almost fell for. He went to Vancouver, he goes, oh,
this might be a good idea. He brings them back
to Denver, and even the lefty Denver City Council.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Is like, are you mad man?
Speaker 3 (27:27):
No, we know what safe injection sites here, you lunatic.
Mike Johnson might be bringing them back. They'll keep your
eyes open for that one safe injection bridge.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
I love it.
Speaker 3 (27:39):
Ryan just took the bridge survey, many forced choice questions
that reflect boutique projects. Yes, yes, indeed, and this is
what happens when people vote left is they don't have
enough real issues to be concerned about in their lives,
so they go, you know what, maybe we'll just put
in one of the lines on that sign outside in
our front lawn, in front of the house.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
In this house weed the We'll do that.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
We'll do that, We'll go on with that. The text
I think takes them all. Ryan Polus would be lilith
on cheers.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
That's good.
Speaker 4 (28:16):
I agree with the texture.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Oh god good, Oh.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
That's fantastic. Texter. That is in the running for Texts.

Speaker 3 (28:23):
You heard me, lol, I didn't you have to say
the letters, but wow, simply fantastic. I am. I'm very
proud of you. I'm not surprised though, not with this audience.
You guys are fantastic. Jared Poulis reminds me of the
lead nerd on the television series Scorpion. I'm gonna elite
need help with that one. If that's a more recent one.
I looked at Z but no, no, not that one.
(28:44):

Are you in favor of or opposed to Jared Polis's
Bridge to Nowhere Downtown The one hundred and fiftieth anniversary
celebrating Colorado. Now, the question that jumps off the page
(31:05):
at me that you could have a different answer for
it and justify it. And Kelly said she wants no
anniversary projects at all.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
And the question is, if.
Speaker 3 (31:13):
Colorado does not proceed with the one hundred and fiftieth
anniversary walkway as Jared Pulis would like, would you like
to see a major one hundred fiftieth anniversary project in
our state's capital city of Denver or choice too, several
smaller scale anniversary projects in other parts of the state.
They reflect our rich history and diverse cultural history.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
Zach and I voted for that one.
Speaker 3 (31:34):
And then Kelly, no anniversary projects at all, don't spend
the money.
Speaker 4 (31:37):
Well, first of all, just to clarify, it's not that
I don't want to commemorate the anniversary. I don't want
to pay for it.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
Well, somebody's got to pay for it, and we're going
to do like.
Speaker 4 (31:47):
Events could be private donations, that could be Polis.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
Exactly out of his own pocket, exactly four hundred million dollars.
That's all I got to say.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
Four hundred million dollars. That's what that guy's worth. Come on,
he could liquidate some of those funds and turn them
into cash. You can vote yourselves at CO one P
fifty Walkway dot com. Also, which Cheers character would Jared
Polis be? You could create a new one or reflect
on an old one. We had the hilarious suggestion that
he would be Lilith. I said he would be the
third nerdiest Crane brother. Both Zach and Kelly say he's
(32:19):
Cliff Claven that acts like he knows everything. And there's that,
there's that absolutely. Stephen Lilson says the walkway like putting
mag wheels on a wrecked car. Another memorial to his
failed administration, Steve, You're right, he's trying to salvage his legacy.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
That's what this is.
Speaker 3 (32:34):
Let's see a couple more here. How much did Polis
pay to get elected? Probably close to the cost of
the bridge. Ooh, that's a good one, Alexa chiming in.
Or you can use a VPN and vote many times.
Talking about the online survey here, Kyle Clark points out
the loopholes in that no way Polis put out this
pole without knowing what the results would be. Well, then,
(32:56):
like I said, he can wash his hands of a
lot of people and want it, even though it's my idea,
was terrible idea. This one says, come on, Jared, how
about a chair lift or a gondola kay right down
the river?
Speaker 1 (33:08):
There? Sure? Why not?
Speaker 3 (33:10):
What's the website to weigh in on Polus's one big,
not so beautiful bridge to nowhere?
Speaker 1 (33:14):
Keep repeating it. I just did, and I'll do it again.
Speaker 3 (33:18):
Co one fifty walkway dot com. Everybody get in there, vote,
have your voice is heard. Ryan, I voted sadly there
wasn't an option of hell no, Okay, this is great, Brian.
I still have an unopened six pack of Pepsi bottles
from America's two hundredth anniversary. That's back in nineteen seventy six.
(33:39):
I can only imagine what that pepsi tastes like now.
It's like, you know, they found that cherry wine in
George Washington's basement at Mount Vernon.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
Did you see that?
Speaker 3 (33:47):
And some of the cherries were still intact, like two
hundred and fifty years later.
Speaker 1 (33:51):
It's pretty awesome.
Speaker 4 (33:52):
That's got to be vinegar at this.
Speaker 3 (33:53):
Well, yeah, there's a certain point right diminishing re thirds. Oh,
it's a finely aged wine. Well what vintage seventeen seven? Well,
the little tooled Sorry, Ryan took the survey. Thanks for
keeping this stupid thing in the Colorado zeitgeist. That's what
I do. I'm a zeitgeist ghana guy. We all need
to be kept updated on such things. Keep up the
great work. Bravo, thank you, thank you for that, Alexa ads. Also,
(34:17):
how well did Polis listen to voters over the years
when we absolutely voted down several propositions and plus Colorado
legislatures then passed legislation which was opposite of the voters wishes.
Speaker 1 (34:28):
Anyway, that's right.
Speaker 3 (34:30):
Talking about the ends around Tabor property tax relief, repealing Gallagher,
which I know that had support and opposition on both sides,
but they didn't have anything to replace it with, or
property taxes skyrocketed, and a lot of these lefty policies
going through anti gun legislation.
Speaker 1 (34:45):
I mean, there's so.
Speaker 3 (34:46):
Many things to keep up with. I can't really save
them all in the time that we have left. Ryan,
I'm all for the bridge. Have a go completely over
Denver and Denver County so we don't have.
Speaker 1 (34:55):
To travel through the cesspool.
Speaker 3 (34:58):
Okay, so you want to go from leoh I don't
know Fort Collins all the way down to Castle Rockers.
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (35:03):
We make a that's a big bridge. Let me see here,
this is a big one, Ryan, I say. Copy the
idea from the Saint Louis two hundred and fiftieth Birthday.
Back in twenty fourteen, middle school kids entered a design
contest to design a birthday cake statue or art piece.
The school, district or group of kids submit design birthday
cake statue that represents the history of their community. The
teams who win get a five to ten thousand dollars
(35:25):
grant to build the cake and display it in the community.
The cake design should include a one thousand word essay
about the history of the area and how the cake
statue design demonstrates the history of the community. The essay
should be displayed with the cake statue. For the two
hundred fiftieth year, that'd be USA one hundred and fifty
for us here in Colorado coming up Ciskus Centennial, which
a one Texter did get right. Make it the year
(35:46):
the Colorado Roadship to find all the birthday cakes a
lot less expensive and celebrates all communities in Colorado. Keep
them common text send them in five seven, seven thirty
nine got an update We've gone national again in Aurora
with a story on Solomon Gallagan. Laura Ingram had Daniel
Jorinsky on highlights after this
Le's talk about the pedestrian bridge. Let's do it. Has
the project changed? So here's where we're launching today.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
We are trying to figure out whether people want to
see a pedestrian bridge at the capitol and so we
are launching a survey today State White Survey CEO one
fifty walkway dot com, so we describe the project. Takes
less than five minutes, So CEO one fifty walkway dot com,
I encourage you to fill it out. It'll be up
through Monday nights. So we're hoping to get thousands, tens
of thousands of people to say whether they want to
(00:27):
see this done or not, because we now's the time
when we need to figure out there's one hundred.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
And fiftiethday next year. What we're asking people, do you
want to do the walkway? Do not want to do
the walkway? We're describing it. I'm even we're even gonna
put up your.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
Video what people are saying so people can see how
you don't like it and you know, make their decision.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
And then if they.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Don't want it, what do they want to see the
state doing? Should we do smaller projects in another parts
of the state. Should we do nothing? For one hundred
and fifty birthday. So we just asked four or five
questions get a quick sense of where people are. We
want to make it as unobtrusive as easy as possible
to have your voice count.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
He is such a spass governor.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Shared Polus is the fast talking, the free wheel in
I'm not talking like Rick Flair, freewheeling limousine Ryding. That's no, no,
no no, that's not Jared Polis. Ryan Scherling live, coming
right at you in living color. Zach Segers on the
other side of the glass. I always appreciate his time
in hell. But Kelly cauchera sticking around for this topic
here today and I want your input as well. At
(01:19):
five seven seven three nine, So let's start right there.
You have the Bridge over the River Quai. Ever see
that movie. That's a classic nineteen fifty seven, way back
when I think Alec Guinnis is in it. Obi Wan
Kenobi from the original Star Wars scrape movie. You have
a Bridge over Troubled Water. A tremendous song. It was
sung at my parents' wedding by my mom's own request.
(01:40):
Simon and Garfunkel there but on the way back in
nineteen seventy one, and then you have the bridge to Nowhere.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
She's probably heard of this.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
This exists, by the way, and I believe Kelly, if
I'm not mistaken in your home state of California.
Speaker 4 (01:52):
Indeed, yes, one of the things we're very proud of.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
What is the bridge to nowhere?
Speaker 4 (01:57):
As you understand it, Basically it was only I think
they only built like a very small portion of it
and then they ran out of funding. So it just basically.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Sits Boondogo project in other world.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
Right now, Colorado is getting the bridge you knowwhere, because
you know, they love what California does. So Poulus, you know,
looked at it and said, you know what, we need
a commemorative pedestrian bridge because yeah, people are going to
use that.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
So the website you mentioned while talking about one hundred
and fifty miles an hour is co one fifty walkway
dot com pop quiz hotshots those of you in the
listening audience and to Zach and Kelly, and I didn't
have to look this up because I was there for
Paintney Michigan's one hundred and fiftieth birthday and that's coming
(02:50):
up for Colorado next year. You might remember Centennial is
a place here in Metro Denver because in eighteen seventy six,
Colorado was founded on the centennial anniversary of our Republic,
our constitutional republic known as the United States of America
founded seventeen seventy six, Colorado eighteen seventy six. He had
(03:11):
the bi centennial for the United States in nineteen seventy six.
I was not quite two when that happened on July
fourth that year.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
I don't remember it.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
But I'm getting hankered up for the two hundredth anniversary,
two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of America coming up in twenty
twenty six, and of course President Trump will preside over that.
Arnold Schwarzenegger's gonna have a big role in that. But
do you know the question trivia? Either Zach or Kelly
feel free to chime in. What do you call a
(03:41):
one hundred and fiftieth anniversary? One hundred and fiftieth? What
is that called? If one hundred is a centennial?
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Do you know? TikTok venture? Guess hazard? I guess Kelly,
Zach either one centennial and a half.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
I like that, and it works. It's true, but technically
not the actual name. You're looking it up, Kelly, I
see what you're doing over there. If anybody out there
knows and you sent the text along, I will give
you full credit for.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
This class hour.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
This is a scrabble word.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Yes, I'll go ahead and tell the people if you
looked it up, can you say it.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Says Qui Centennials Cessqua Centennial.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
And in Pinkney, Michigan, that was nineteen eighty five, because
Pinkney was founded in eighteen thirty five. And of course
Michigan is a little bit older than Colorado. But here
comes Colorado Cessqui Centennial. And what does Jared Polus want?
He wants a walkway. He wants a bridge to nowhere,
a pedestrian bridge that goes over well, not exactly the
greatest area in.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
The capitol downtown there.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
And it might be not the types of visuals and
optics that you might associate, but the whope might be
if you beautify this area, this type of project that
a rising tide lifts all boats.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
And I've seen this happen.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
I've seen this happen in Detroit in the Stadium district
where you built up around Comerica Park, where the Tigers play,
and then Field right across the street where the Lions play,
and the Little Caesars Arena just down the block where
the Pistons and the Red Wings play.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
And then you got the.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
Fox Theater, you got Greek Town, you got this whole
business center, you got millennials and gen Z's like Zach
moving back downtown to Detroit. That would have been unheard
of in the seventies and eighties post Riots mean Detroit
was a punchline. There's a reason why Axel Foley in
Beverly Hills Cop is from Detroit, because what would be
the opposite of Beverly Hills in nineteen eighty four Detroit
(05:26):
and Gil Hill as the police chief and Axel Foley
as a detective on the hard street to Detroit and
he brings that street sense to Beverly Hills where they
have no clue what's going on. Taggart, you know it
sets up for a wonderful film. If you've never seen it,
you gotta see it, Zach. Have you seen Beverly Hills Cop?
The original?
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Think I've seen all three?
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Okay, good good for you man, good for you, I thought,
Axel f I'm not the song, but the follow up,
this sequel that was just on Netflix. Christian Tote and
I disagreed on that one. I found it missed the
mark a little bit, and I was a little sad
because I wanted to like it. Anyway, it can happen beautification,
it can have positive impact consequences in a good way.
(06:06):
Maybe for Denver, maybe we need that. I'm just leaving
the door open here. I'm trying not to buy us
and poison the well here against Jared Polis just because
it's him and it's his idea, but it's also his
vanity project. This is going to be his signature that
he leaves us swift. The autograph on the city and
the state Denver in Colorado is eight years in office.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
Will he be remembered?
Speaker 3 (06:25):
Will it be called Jaredpolis Walkway or Jaredpolis Way or
Jaredpolis Bridge. I'm sure he wants that, deep down, he
wants that. This guy is an eagle maniac. But if
you want to participate in the survey, I'll say it
more slowly than he did. CO one fifty walkway dot com,
a's co one five oh walkway dot com. Let's play along,
(06:49):
Let's spin the wheel. Let's play the feud. KELLICOCHERI you
got the website over there, Zach, you two you.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Can do it too. I already voted this morning. Okay,
don't tell me how you voted yet.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
Because Kyle Clark, comrade, Kyle, our good friend, he's the
only one, one of few that has access to Governor Polis.
And you could tell I'm watching this. So the whole
thing is about ten minutes. I'm gonna just play you
the hits, Okay, the greatest hits from this, and they
are early on in the conversation. Well, what I noticed
Polis is obviously I don't know nervous is the word,
but he's on edge because he knows this idea isn't
(07:20):
popular and he's trying to sell it. Right, He's trying
to sell ketchup popsicles to an Eskimo with white gloves.
That's the old joke. Can I say, I can't even
say eskimon into it? Can I say into it? Let'll
just say it that way, Okay. I don't want to
offend anybody out there.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Really.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
By the way, there's a movie that Toto and I
saw last night. We'll get to that, but wow, go
see it. It's weird and it's crazy and whatever, but
it's so anti PC. It was delicious anyway, selling the idea,
selling the drama, as the Group Live might put it.
Governor Jared Polis, he's putting out a pole let the
(07:55):
people decide Poncious Polis, as I call him. This is
this is totally him, remember, like, this is what he
wants to do. He wants to wash his hands up,
you know, just offer up Barabas or Jesus and go, hey,
out of my hands. I don't want to make this call.
You guys decide which one we crucify. It's up to you,
and then I can live a guilt free life and
(08:15):
have no association with the decision. He is trying to
distance himself from this decision, and that leads to this
question that Comrade Kyle asks him, and the one other
thing I want to say before we play. All these
Polus's answers get noticeably shorter with each question that Kyle
Clark asks.
Speaker 5 (08:34):
So online survey, I can't tell if you're looking for
a justification, we'll looking for an escape route.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
Well, I'm hoping it's clear one way or the other, Kyle, Right,
Like what I would hate to see is fifty point
one to forty nine point nine. I'm really hoping sixty
seventy percent of people want to see a walkway. Sixty
seventy percent of people don't want to see a walkway,
want to see something else. If it is a walkway,
I need to get to work is you know, I
need to raise a lot of the money for that.
It's about eight and a half a million public, about
ten twelve million private, So I would need to raise
(09:01):
that if.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
We go that way. If we go other away and do.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Smaller projects in other areas of the state, we can
see if there's local matching funds we can raise for those.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
But now it's really the time to figure that out.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Our birthday is next year, and we want to make
sure that Colorado is celebrate in a way where where
we're proud to do that.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
And feel ownership of it.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Okay, there's one area this I got to address right
out of the gate before we get to any of that.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Again.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
Pop QUI is going to put both of you on
the spot, Kelly Kicherra Zach Seeger, and all of you
in our listening audience. I just looked up Jared Polus
on the Wikipedia. Polus served as a US representative for
Colorado's second Congressional district. I believe Joe no Goose is
now in that district from two thousand and nine to
twenty nineteen. He is a Democrat. He was among the
(09:45):
richest members of Congress. His personal net worth is estimated
at zach hazard A guests Jared Polis. All the wealth
he's mom with a greeting card company that he was
able to cash in.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
How much do you think he's worth? Fifty million?
Speaker 4 (10:02):
Okay, Kelly, I'm going to say one hundred and fifty million.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Initially as he was elected governor in Colorado, it was
one hundred and twenty two point six million. His personal
net worth now again according to the search you can
use the AI whatever you want.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Check my work.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
His personal net worth is estimated at nearly four hundred
million dollars.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Jared Polis, he got to buy some groceries.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
He could write a check today without blinking and cover
the cost of this whole project if it was that
important to him. So why do we need state funds
taxpayer dollars? Always trying to find a way around tabor
for the hard working men and women of this state
that are barely getting by, that are holding on for
dear life, that are paying Russky rocketing rents and mortgages,
(10:49):
that can barely make ends meet at the end of
the month to pay their bills, but taxpayer dollars need
to cover. He keeps repeating this number. Eight point five million,
Jared Polis is worth four one hundred million dollars.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
That might be a high end estimate. But even if
we go at the.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Low end estimate, one hundred twenty two point six million,
higher than either Zach or Kelly Guest, Daddy Warbucks over
here can pay for the dan Bridge himself. Kyle Clark
points out that online polls, I mean, this is like anything,
Those can be rigged, right, totally rigged.
Speaker 5 (11:20):
You know the Internet, So you know the Internet surveys
are notoriously easy to game and manipulate. Are you guys
going to have these results publicly available? Is this going
to be binding or are you just looking for feedback?
Speaker 1 (11:32):
Yeah? So, I mean, first of.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
All, we use a lot of techniques to make it
hard to game.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
I mean, yeah, sure, somebody.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Can vote once from their phone and once from their PC.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
If you're really passionate enough to vote twice, go for it.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
But no, you can't just stand there voting multiple times
on your device and won't let you do that. We
ask your zip code. We want to know where people
are in Colorado.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
We're going to release the results as soon as we
have them.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
So whatever they are closes Monday at midnight, we should
Tuesday or Wednesday, we should know where people are at.
And I think how many people vote is important. I mean,
if only five hundred people have an opinion doesn't help
us as much as if five or ten thousand have
an opinion. So I'm hoping that again we get the
big buy in and that there's been a lot of
passion about this project. You're passionate on one side, there's
people that are passionate about it. What does that mean?
(12:11):
Sometimes you hear the loudest voices. What do people actually
want to see? Because this is our states one hundred
and fiftieth, right, and it's about our state capital, that's
our people's building.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
What should we do there? Let's get some directions from
the people of our state.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Hold on a second, are there people at the corner
bar right now? Let's say my favorite JD's bait shop
on a rappa hole and they're sitting there and they're
talking about maybe the brown ghost seasons coming up, you know,
and getting ready for camp whatnot? Hey, do you hear
about this bridge? One hundred and fiftieth anniversary downtown? What
do you think polus good idea? Does police honestly think
we believe that any individual is sitting around the local bar,
(12:46):
around the water cool at work?
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Ones?
Speaker 4 (12:47):
Man?
Speaker 1 (12:48):
You know what? I think that bridge is a great idea.
Find me one now.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
Kyle Clark, to his credit, he has skewered this project,
and most everybody that's hearing about it is doing this same, like,
why are we spending money on this?
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Our money on this.
Speaker 3 (13:03):
A boondoggle project of all the things that we need,
not want need in Colorado, In Denver, the homelessness crisis,
the budget shortfalls of the City of Denver, property tax
relief that we need and need more of. Now let's
build a bridge to nowhere. Now, Polus is cornered on
(13:24):
you know why you're doing this now? Why didn't do
this like you know, several months ago? Why did it
come to this moment?
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Is this what you should have done months ago?
Speaker 5 (13:30):
Before you announced that you were going forward with a bridge.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Well we couldn't because there was no bridge for people
to vote on, right, So I mean it has to
be in sequence. People would have not known we were
what we were talking about had we've done this three
months ago, because there was no visuals, there was no project.
So thanks to that, which is all very recent. This
is all what about a month or two. People have
been out there. People have been talking about it.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
You know, it's great. You go down to corner bar.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
People saying they love it, people say they he hated.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
It's great.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
People are feeling ownership and passionate about this. What does
that all mean and how do we kind of decipher
that into whether we do this or not.
Speaker 6 (14:03):
People are not going to the corner bar saying whether
they like it or hate it. They don't know about it,
and then what they do find out, I'm like, what, no, No,
we don't want to do this exactly.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Well, you know, both sides this could be a close vote.
I hope it's not, but nobody wants this.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
In fact, Kyle Clark points out that the six members
of the Capital Development Committee, they're not exactly on board.
Speaker 5 (14:26):
So as it currently stands, all six members of the
Capital Development Committee are a no.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Oh, that's the next step in the approval process.
Speaker 5 (14:35):
If all six of them, four Democrats, two Republicans are
all in no, will you still.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
Push forward with the project?
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Well, I think what we want to get a sense
of is the people of Colorado.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
Want this project.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
I'm sure elected officials want to know that as well
state representative, state senators. You know, if it's clear that
people want to do something else, we should do something else.
If people want to see a walkway in the People's building,
then we should work with legislators to figure out how
to get that done.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
Okay, what do the people want? We don't want this?
Be sure to vote once again. That website is cl
one fifty walkway dot com. If you're really enthused, if
you're hyped about this and you want to help Jared
pull us out by all means, vote yes. But here's
again the budget that he's citing for it, and Kyle
Clark calls him out on this.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Number two, let's talk about the price.
Speaker 5 (15:17):
Your office pitches publicly as an eighteen to twenty million
dollar project, but they knew that that was not true,
and we had to use open records to get your
internal document showing that you were proposing the project is
at twenty eight and a half million dollar project. And
that twenty eight and a half million dollars includes core
components of what was pitched to the public, things like
the art, the insurance, the permits, the general contractor fee,
(15:39):
things that couldn't be stripped out and still do the project.
Why did we have to go and get an open
records request to find out how much it actually cost?
Speaker 2 (15:45):
I disagree with some of your reporting in that area.
So the state piece, the only state piece that we're
looking at, is eight and a half. If this moves
forward and we say that, then that's clear, and the
survey too, so people know that I would have to
raise the rest and no, I don't need to get
to twenty eight. We'd probably need to raise about twelve
to get to twenty. Now that's for the CESSCA centennial.
There are another eight or ten million dollars worth of
(16:06):
projects there and.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Those would not be done for next year.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
That would fall to the next governor, to future legislators.
That could be three years, five years. That's for kind
of a master plan, and many of those will need
to happen.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Anyway, even without a walkway. Some might be unique to
the walkway.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
So the piece that we need to achieve if the
people want to move forward with this, they don't. It's
not going to be more than eight and a half
public and as they said, I would need to raise
about ten or twelve million from million from donors to
make it happen.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
King Polus from on High wants all of us, all
of you, to pay eight point five million dollars for
his vanity project.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
This is insane.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
Let's go to the survey again, co one to fifty
walkway dot com. I'll walkway, I'll walk you through it
all right here, it is below our series of questions
that will lead to the outcome of the celebration of
Colorado's one hundred fiftieth anniversary.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Voting.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
We'll close at midnight on July twenty first, twenty twenty five,
that is coming up on Monday.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
Here we go.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
Should Colorado proceed with a proposed one hundred fiftieth anniversary
walkway at the state Capitol compleat in Denver, Kelly, Yes? No?
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Or maybe on a note okay, Zach no, okay.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
If Colorado does not proceed with the one hundred and
fiftieth anniversary walkway. Would you like to see a major
one hundred fiftieth anniversary project in our state's capital city
of Denver, or several smaller scale anniversary projects in other
parts of the state that reflect our rich history in
diverse cultural history, or no anniversary projects at all, Kelly.
Speaker 4 (17:26):
No anniversary projects at all, Zach, how.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
About you several the smaller scale ones.
Speaker 7 (17:33):
Yeah, yeah, I'd like, yeah, something that that is helpful,
like the walkways, hoping nobody but maybe Golden could use
something in Yeah, for Collins could use something else, spread
the love around.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
I'm with you on that one, and that's how I voted.
I'm going to celebrate it somehow. I think that's that's
deserved and justified. One hundred fifteth anniversary. Okay, if Colorado
does proceed with the one hundred fiftieth anniversary walkway, would
you like to see the full one hundred fiftieth anniversary
walkway built as planned or the one hundred fiftieth anniversary walkway.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
We scaled back to a smaller project, Kelly.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Well, this one didn't actually have the none.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
Of the above, right, so you got to pick one.
Speaker 4 (18:08):
So probably do the scaled back version to be quite
scaled back.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
Very scaled back, Zach. I'm assuming you're the same from you.
Speaker 7 (18:16):
Yeah, they're forcing it down our throats. I at least
wanted to be as small and cheap as possible.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
And finally, twenty twenty six is just around the corner.
Exclamation point on the survey? Are you excited more excited
about Colorado's one hundred and fiftieth anniversary the United States
two hundred and fiftieth anniversary are both equally Kelly?
Speaker 4 (18:35):
United States two hundred and fiftieth.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
Zach, Colorado. I'm a Colorado native. Okay, that makes sense.
You're Colorado native, so you choose that one. I would
say us two fifty Okay, that's a quarter of a
millennia that our great country, this constitutional republic of ours,
has been intact. And that's saying quite a bit after
everything we've been through, two World wars, a Civil war,
(18:58):
the revolution itself.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
So I'm more excited about two fifty. Give me your
answers five.

Thanks for that poll, Zacht Simon and Garfunkle. Is that
what this is? The Jared Polis personal vanity project downtown Denver?
(21:04):
You know, I send a message to Jeriff for Steve Reams.
He'll be joining me coming up one hour from right now,
talking about the Iced deportations, working with them. The demonization
of Ice by Democrats that continues to ratchet up the
crocodile tears about Alligator alcatraz I mean, what are the
Democrats doing? Like these are criminal, illegal aliens? Do you
(21:26):
really want them here? Are you gonna fight for their right?
Speaker 1 (21:29):
To party.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
Are you gonna kill mar Abrego Garcia your way back
to the White House and control of Congress.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
I don't think so. Anyway, I asked Sheriff.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Reams Wild County about the Polis Bridge to nowhere as
we're calling it. I don't think it is a bridge
over troubled water, although there's gonna be a lot of
troubled waters underneath the bridge. If you know what I mean,
Downtown Denver, if you've been there of late, you know
what I'm talking about. And that's what Sheriff Reames goes
off on. It's blanking stupid. Clean up the homeless, don't
(21:59):
create a bridge over them. And that sums it up
pretty well. But once again here's Jared Polis. His fever
dream of this bridge is not going away.
Speaker 5 (22:08):
Is this what you should have done months ago before
you announced that you were going forward with a bridge.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
Well, we couldn't because there was no bridge for people
to vote on, right, So I mean it has to
be in sequence. People would have not known what we
were talking about had we done this three months ago,
because there was no visuals, there was no project. So
thanks to that, which is all very recent, This is
all what about a month or two, people have been
out there, people have been talking about it. You know,
(22:33):
it's great. You go down a corner bar. People saying
they love it, people say they hated.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
It's great. People are feeling ownership and passionate about this.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
So what does that all mean and how do we
kind of decipher that into whether we do this or not?
Speaker 3 (22:44):
Okay, when is the last time Governor Jared Poulis was
at a corner bar, just a regular joe, blue collar bar,
you know the kind that Sack or I might go to,
or Kelly watching a game, showing up, belly up to
the bar. When is the last time you think he
actually experienced that part of Colorado culture? You know, brupop
(23:09):
around here, a lot of craft breweries.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
I like them all. Maybe a little too much sometimes,
but definitely enough.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
And then again, if Governor Polis were a character on Cheers,
George went ip, which character would he be? Five seven
seven three nine? Zach and Kelly? No, that's before Zach's time,
but he knows what cheers, isn't it?
Speaker 1 (23:29):
Kelly? You and I grew up watching Cheers.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
We did. Indeed, which character would Jared Polis be on Cheers?
Speaker 4 (23:37):
Cliff Claven because he makes absolutely zero sense whenever it
is good.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
Explanation for everything, though, you know, and Cliff Claven did
go on he would have won Jeopardy if he didn't
bet at all in Final Jeopardy when he didn't have to.
Speaker 4 (23:52):
It's right, I do remember that at this SDE Do.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
You remember his question is losing question for Alex Trebek?
Speaker 4 (23:57):
Oh gosh, I don't.
Speaker 3 (23:59):
What is my mom's kitchen where all these people have
not been? That was the episode? Yes, I remember, Zach.
How familiar with you? How familiar with Cheers?
Speaker 1 (24:11):
Are you? On a scale of one? You know nothing?
Speaker 3 (24:13):
In ten you're a diehard fan, you personally six?
Speaker 1 (24:20):
Really? Okay? All right?
Speaker 3 (24:22):
So do you have maybe a character cut out that
Jared Poulis would fit into if he were to appear
on Cheers? That well, the one that stands out now,
Kelly said, Cliff, I'm gonna.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Have to t echo her. There was that. I have
to echo her.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
Go her. Here's what I think. He is a pointy head,
no it all? So the know it all part that
was Cliff Clayton. But he had like trivial knowledge and
he was very proud of that. Polis isn't norm. You
can throw that one right out of the window because
he's not relatable and he doesn't come in and people
have not chanted norm.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
No, no, no, no, that's not Jared Pouls. Here's what
I think.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
So you had doctor Fraser Crane, right, very intelligent guy.
He would end up having a radio show in Seattle
and spinoff a very successful spin off of my Dad.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
And then you had his.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
Brother who is even more anal retentive and nerdy, doctor
Niles Crane.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
Remember that in that dynamic.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
And then their father was just like a normal guy.
I venture I would say that Jared Polis. If those
two had a third brother that was even more awkward
and anti social and unable to incorporate himself into social situations,
then he would be.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
The third Crane brother.
Speaker 3 (25:28):
That's who I believe Jared Polus would be if you
were cast on cheers.
Speaker 4 (25:32):
Hold on, you're giving him way too much intelligence here.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
He's not a dumb guy. Oh he's not a dumb guy.
Oh he's not a knucklehead. No, I'm not gonna I'm
go that far. But is he aloof arrogant.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
Out of touch, detached from the average human, completely devoid
of any kind of capacity for compassion.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Yes, he's all those things.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
But I just think it's funny that a guy like
Jared Polis, who is as unrelatable, buttons his Polos up
to the top button. I mean, you know, brags about
wearing these tennis shoes and an attempt to look relatable,
but totally is not cannot relate to any of our experiences.
This guy was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.
I don't begrudge him of that. I'm not a democrat,
I'm not a lefty. I'm not gonna soak the rich,
eat the rich, you know, tax the rich and fund
(26:16):
the poor.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
No, no, no, no, that's fine. You know. I good
for him.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
His mother was very successful with a greeting card company
and he stood the benefit from that. That's fantastic. But
don't pretend like you're one of the common folk.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
You're not.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
You'll never will be. It just don't fit in, brother,
you don't. We'll take your tax right now, five seven, seven,
three nine. We'll get to more of these after the
break as well.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
It's great. I mentioned this one to Zach Ryan Shue.
Speaker 3 (26:41):
We can call it safe injection bridge, Yes, make it
a safe injection site.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Here's some needles, pump yourself full of heroin. But the
queen like, how is that compassionate for an addict?
Speaker 3 (26:54):
As the son of an addict my father, you know what,
here's a beer. At least it's not been tampered with.
Drink away and continue with your addiction. Please, Like, no,
you kick them off with the drugs. You don't go well,
you just scrap the idea of getting them off the drugs.
So why don't we just make sure they have clean
needles so they don't give each other aids. That's the
(27:14):
rationale behind Vancouver, folks. It's one that Michael Hancock, mayor
of Denver, almost fell for. He went to Vancouver, he goes, oh,
this might be a good idea. He brings them back
to Denver, and even the lefty Denver City Council.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Is like, are you mad man?
Speaker 3 (27:27):
No, we know what safe injection sites here, you lunatic.
Mike Johnson might be bringing them back. They'll keep your
eyes open for that one safe injection bridge.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
I love it.
Speaker 3 (27:39):
Ryan just took the bridge survey, many forced choice questions
that reflect boutique projects. Yes, yes, indeed, and this is
what happens when people vote left is they don't have
enough real issues to be concerned about in their lives,
so they go, you know what, maybe we'll just put
in one of the lines on that sign outside in
our front lawn, in front of the house.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
In this house weed the We'll do that.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
We'll do that, We'll go on with that. The text
I think takes them all. Ryan Polus would be lilith
on cheers.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
That's good.
Speaker 4 (28:16):
I agree with the texture.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Oh god good, Oh.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
That's fantastic. Texter. That is in the running for Texts.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
Of the Year.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
You heard me, lol, I didn't you have to say
the letters, but wow, simply fantastic. I am. I'm very
proud of you. I'm not surprised though, not with this audience.
You guys are fantastic. Jared Poulis reminds me of the
lead nerd on the television series Scorpion. I'm gonna elite
need help with that one. If that's a more recent one.
I looked at Z but no, no, not that one.
(28:44):
We'll take this break because I want more time. We
got so many texts coming in on this. We also
have another edition of Based Fetterman. Those are always fun

it all he's got.

Are you in favor of or opposed to Jared Polis's
Bridge to Nowhere Downtown The one hundred and fiftieth anniversary
celebrating Colorado. Now, the question that jumps off the page
(31:05):
at me that you could have a different answer for
it and justify it. And Kelly said she wants no
anniversary projects at all.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
And the question is, if.
Speaker 3 (31:13):
Colorado does not proceed with the one hundred and fiftieth
anniversary walkway as Jared Pulis would like, would you like
to see a major one hundred fiftieth anniversary project in
our state's capital city of Denver or choice too, several
smaller scale anniversary projects in other parts of the state.
They reflect our rich history and diverse cultural history.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
Zach and I voted for that one.
Speaker 3 (31:34):
And then Kelly, no anniversary projects at all, don't spend
the money.
Speaker 4 (31:37):
Well, first of all, just to clarify, it's not that
I don't want to commemorate the anniversary. I don't want
to pay for it.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
Well, somebody's got to pay for it, and we're going
to do like.
Speaker 4 (31:47):
Events could be private donations, that could be Polis.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
Exactly out of his own pocket, exactly four hundred million dollars.
That's all I got to say.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
Four hundred million dollars. That's what that guy's worth. Come on,
he could liquidate some of those funds and turn them
into cash. You can vote yourselves at CO one P
fifty Walkway dot com. Also, which Cheers character would Jared
Polis be? You could create a new one or reflect
on an old one. We had the hilarious suggestion that
he would be Lilith. I said he would be the
third nerdiest Crane brother. Both Zach and Kelly say he's
(32:19):
Cliff Claven that acts like he knows everything. And there's that,
there's that absolutely. Stephen Lilson says the walkway like putting
mag wheels on a wrecked car. Another memorial to his
failed administration, Steve, You're right, he's trying to salvage his legacy.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
That's what this is.
Speaker 3 (32:34):
Let's see a couple more here. How much did Polis
pay to get elected? Probably close to the cost of
the bridge. Ooh, that's a good one, Alexa chiming in.
Or you can use a VPN and vote many times.
Talking about the online survey here, Kyle Clark points out
the loopholes in that no way Polis put out this
pole without knowing what the results would be. Well, then,
(32:56):
like I said, he can wash his hands of a
lot of people and want it, even though it's my idea,
was terrible idea. This one says, come on, Jared, how
about a chair lift or a gondola kay right down
the river?
Speaker 1 (33:08):
There? Sure? Why not?
Speaker 3 (33:10):
What's the website to weigh in on Polus's one big,
not so beautiful bridge to nowhere?
Speaker 1 (33:14):
Keep repeating it. I just did, and I'll do it again.
Speaker 3 (33:18):
Co one fifty walkway dot com. Everybody get in there, vote,
have your voice is heard. Ryan, I voted sadly there
wasn't an option of hell no, Okay, this is great, Brian.
I still have an unopened six pack of Pepsi bottles
from America's two hundredth anniversary. That's back in nineteen seventy six.
(33:39):
I can only imagine what that pepsi tastes like now.
It's like, you know, they found that cherry wine in
George Washington's basement at Mount Vernon.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
Did you see that?
Speaker 3 (33:47):
And some of the cherries were still intact, like two
hundred and fifty years later.
Speaker 1 (33:51):
It's pretty awesome.
Speaker 4 (33:52):
That's got to be vinegar at this.
Speaker 3 (33:53):
Well, yeah, there's a certain point right diminishing re thirds. Oh,
it's a finely aged wine. Well what vintage seventeen seven? Well,
the little tooled Sorry, Ryan took the survey. Thanks for
keeping this stupid thing in the Colorado zeitgeist. That's what
I do. I'm a zeitgeist ghana guy. We all need
to be kept updated on such things. Keep up the
great work. Bravo, thank you, thank you for that, Alexa ads. Also,
(34:17):
how well did Polis listen to voters over the years
when we absolutely voted down several propositions and plus Colorado
legislatures then passed legislation which was opposite of the voters wishes.
Speaker 1 (34:28):
Anyway, that's right.
Speaker 3 (34:30):
Talking about the ends around Tabor property tax relief, repealing Gallagher,
which I know that had support and opposition on both sides,
but they didn't have anything to replace it with, or
property taxes skyrocketed, and a lot of these lefty policies
going through anti gun legislation.
Speaker 1 (34:45):
I mean, there's so.
Speaker 3 (34:46):
Many things to keep up with. I can't really save
them all in the time that we have left. Ryan,
I'm all for the bridge. Have a go completely over
Denver and Denver County so we don't have.
Speaker 1 (34:55):
To travel through the cesspool.
Speaker 3 (34:58):
Okay, so you want to go from leoh I don't
know Fort Collins all the way down to Castle Rockers.
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (35:03):
We make a that's a big bridge. Let me see here,
this is a big one, Ryan, I say. Copy the
idea from the Saint Louis two hundred and fiftieth Birthday.
Back in twenty fourteen, middle school kids entered a design
contest to design a birthday cake statue or art piece.
The school, district or group of kids submit design birthday
cake statue that represents the history of their community. The
teams who win get a five to ten thousand dollars
(35:25):
grant to build the cake and display it in the community.
The cake design should include a one thousand word essay
about the history of the area and how the cake
statue design demonstrates the history of the community. The essay
should be displayed with the cake statue. For the two
hundred fiftieth year, that'd be USA one hundred and fifty
for us here in Colorado coming up Ciskus Centennial, which
a one Texter did get right. Make it the year
(35:46):
the Colorado Roadship to find all the birthday cakes a
lot less expensive and celebrates all communities in Colorado. Keep
