from City Cast Denver · host City Cast
Mayor Mike Johnston says he plans to house 1,000 people before the end of 2023, and so far he’s got 119, according to his new dashboard. But some people are already getting mad about it. Producer Paul Karolyi talked to a handful of people behind the scenes and things are, well, complicated. Then, host Bree Davies connects dots in the latest legal entanglements involving school board vice president Auon'tai Anderson, two DPS parents, and Colorado’s new social media law. Plus, a listener responds to our conversation about Colorado’s biggest polluters. Paul discussed Westword’s reporting on the pushback to proposed micro-communities in Holly Hills and the Golden Triangle. Bree mentioned the LGBTQ community’s boycott of Florida orange juice in the late ’70s and Anita Bryant’s pie-in-the-face TV moment, as well as Theo Wilson’s comments on this podcast in defense of DPS board vice president Anderson.
