About this listen
Denver says layoffs could help fix a looming budget crisis — but workers say the city isn’t being transparent, and now the union is stepping in. Then, climate change is making it harder to cool down at night — especially in Colorado’s cities. Plus, a beloved book program from Dolly Parton hits a funding snag, putting some local chapters at risk.
This episode of Colorado Today is hosted by Arlo Pérez Esquivel and Bazi Kanani. It’s edited and produced by Mateo Schimpf and Stephanie Wolf. The executive producer is Rachel Estabrook. Theme music by Pedro Lumbraño.
