Viral Clash at ‘No Kings,’ Englewood’s NIMBY Election, and a Calzone Clapback

View all City Cast Denver episodes

Denverites have been protesting Trump all year, but no demonstrations have been bigger than the ‘No Kings’ rallies in June and this past weekend. So what does that say about the local fight against Trump? Host Bree Davies and Producer Paul Karolyi are talking about some Giants fans who went viral for the wrong reasons, and everything else they saw and heard at ‘No Kings’ — plus, we take some great listener questions and talk about our experience doing four hours on KNUS conservative talk radio, debating issues and fielding calls from people who called us “snowflakes” and worse. 

Check out the whole four hours on The Jeff & Bill Show’s YouTube page. Bree talked about Costco’s inflatable slides. Paul cited Colorado Community Media’s Englewood election coverage and discussed the last few years of debate over density in Englewood. Ben Todd from Full Afterburner Calzones linked to this Jon Stewart video.
