This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, despite polling showing that Colorado voters have soured on Democrats, they have not sweetened up to Republicans -- we explain why in a new segment called "Which is Worser." Then, Colorado braces for a recession as prices keep rising everywhere, the job market looks like it’s really starting to suck, and the nonpartisan economic staff starts predicting stormy skies ahead. And we’re officially back on shutdown watch as the shitshow in Washington DC sees no signs of stopping soon.
And later...many have tried, but could our guest today be the one to finally send Lauren Boebert to her eventual home on Newsmax or Fox? Rear Admiral Eileen Laubacher joins us to talk about her campaign for the fourth congressional district, the weird meeting Pete Hegseth just called, and how she plans to do what no Democrat has done before.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
