Better Boulder Hearts and Minds Podcast
by Philip Ogren
This podcast features interviews with members of Better Boulder, candidates we endorse, and other friends of our organization. We explore ways to make Boulder better with special emphasis on improved housing access and transportation infrastructure. Better Boulder is a nonprofit political action committee that endorses candidates and ballot measures and develops and promotes policies that we believe will make Boulder more vibrant, livable, and connected. We are working hard to create and enhance sustainable, walkable neighborhoods and to champion well-designed infill and redevelopment that reduces our impact on the climate, encourages less driving, and keeps our community welcoming and economically thriving. This podcast is not governed by a consensus driven approval process that carefully regulates messaging. Opinions expressed on this podcast are solely those of the participants and do not necessarily reflect official positions of the Better Boulder organization. We hope y
