Born and raised in Colorado Springs, Camacho lives with his wife and two kids in the Lowry part of Denver and is running for statehouse against incumbent Democrat Elizabeth Epps. https://www.camachoforcolorado.com/   An attorney for Dentons, the world's biggest law firm, Sean David Gonzales Camacho attended the Air Force Academy before law school. He's a Lieutenant Colonel in the USAFA and his leadership skills are obvious. https://www.dentons.com/en/sean-camacho   Delve into the motivations of this emerging Democratic leader, Sean Camacho. The podcast dissects threats to our Rule of Law, the Supreme Court scandals and their far-reaching recent rulings, a topic of immense importance in the current political landscape. https://www.camachoforcolorado.com/   The unexpected overturning of Roe v Wade in the Dobbs case and the potential for even more severe cases in the future, particularly if Trump is re-elected, are thoroughly discussed. The fight against fascism is a key focus of the conversation, keeping the audience informed and engaged.   Fighting fascism extends to Trisha Calvarese's return visit. The star of Episode 205 returns to brag about her May 22, 2024, beatdown of Greg Lopez in a debate held on the Dan Caplis Show. Trisha dishes on the race so far, her opponents Lopez and Boebert, and the awful rulings by the Trump Supreme Court.   When the Democrats gain big momentum based on mass MAGA rejection, won't Trisha make it close in CO CD4? We wonder why Kyle Clark won't entertain a Calvarese v Boebert (Lopez) debate when the stakes are so high on June 25, 2024, when Colorado will have a new person in Congress to replace Ken Buck. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wjezs0Mdteo   Given the discussion of Caplis with Trisha, hear Caplis proclaiming that President Biden will still drop out. Further, Caplis proclaims the existence of spirits from past relatives and the Deep State that are rigging everything against Trump. What can be done to stop all abortions? Apparently, anything, including propaganda. We analyze.   Show Troubadour Dave Gunders supplies a song about a working man and a love that went way wrong. "Chop Wood Carry Water" tells the story of a man who got radicalized while following his passion. Current events reviewed. Lessons learned get discussed.  https://soundcloud.com/dave-gunders/chop-wood-carry-water

Calling back to the days of Caplis and Silverman, Dan continues his heated debate with Tim Leonard over whether 'burning all the Pride flags in June' - a phrase advanced by the state GOP under chair Dave Williams - is a productive message for Colorado Republicans to run on this election cycle.

Rundown -   Trisha Calvarese - 15:43   Troubadour Dave Gunders - 01:13:30   "Sugar Don't Call" by Dave Gunders - 01:32:49   Meet Trish Calvarese, the dynamic Democratic candidate who intends to defeat Greg Lopez on June 25, 2024, in a Special Election caused by Representative Ken Buck's resignation. Learn how Calvarese gained the nomination, spurred to run by the wish of her dying father, a lifelong Republican.    Colorado CD3 Rep. Lauren Boebert wants to switch to a more MAGA-friendly area and she's targeting CD4. In the meantime, Boebert needs to find a MAGA-approved GOP placeholder and that Republican nominee will be former Parker, Colorado Mayor Greg Lopez. On June 25, 2024, expect the nation to be riveted to the open seat contest between Calvarese and Lopez.   Trish Calvarese is a Colorado native who grew up in various cities within Colorado's vast CD4. Her beloved late Dad, Joe Calvarese, was the City Prosecutor for Sterling and went on to serve in the US Civil Service as an SEC Compliance attorney. Trisha went to Highlands Ranch High School, where she was an academic standout and earned a scholarship to Johns Hopkins University.   After college and during 2008-09, this millennial decided she wanted to work in the US Senate. She found herself a communications gig in the Capitol with Senator Bernie Sanders. Look forward to hearing her Bernie impression. Or is it an imitation of Larry David doing Bernie? Either way, Trisha Calvarese is entertaining. https://www.trisha4colorado.com/   Trish Calvarese went on to work for the AFL-CIO in Washington, D.C., including as a speechwriter for the late great Richard Trumka. Fate brought her back to Colorado after her parents passed away and she and her husband took on new responsibilities regarding this country we love.   Lauren Boebert keeps getting overserved at Beetlejuice shows in Denver and Trump dinners in NYC and Mar-A-Lago. Trisha Calvarese can get the votes of regular Republicans and Unaffiliated voters with her common sense policies and lack of a criminal record.    Greg Lopez is a known commodity. Clips are played from @9News (Kyle Clark), Channel 7 and KNUS when Lopez stood in the way of Colorado's Red Flag Law. Lauren Boebert and her placeholder Greg Lopez do the bidding of the gun industry and MAGA. Lopez/Boebert extremism extends to restricting all abortions, including in cases of rape and incest. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1nbrwBLYMM   Size up the intelligence of Calvarese who discusses the multitude of challenges posed by artificial intelligence. She's worried about democracy if MAGA prevails, and she's determined to defeat Lopez/Boebert. Colorado voters generally disfavor carpetbaggers and grifters.   Calvarese strongly supports IVF procedures. As a millennial married woman, she may need those reproductive rights options now threatened by MAGA judges and lawmakers. As for Russia v. Ukraine, Calvarese is resolute in supporting Ukraine, in sharp contrast to what Putin/Trump/Boebert and MAGA-GOQP want. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XoI_LFqsNqw   Trisha Calvarese wants America to outcompete China. She's got big ideas for Colorado's fourth CD. Show Troubadour Dave Gunders proves once again why he's a musical genius and a great conversationalist. His opening lines of "Sugar Don't Call" work for the coming Eclipse, the NYC/NJ earthquake and the 400 calls in one day Lauren Boebert claims to make to an unquestioning Dan Caplis.   One-half of the old Caplis and Silverman show, Dan Caplis, is now taking credit for the Caplis Plan to ensure the MAGA-approved Lauren Boebert prevails in a GOP primary while a placeholder (Greg Lopez) keeps the reliably Republican seat warm. Caplis keeps Boebert warm in another gushing interview and we have sound highlights.   John Charles Eastman is a soon-to-be-disbarred lawyer with Colorado ties through CU, Colorado Republican Party State Committeeman and attorney/radio host, Randy Corporon. There was a Big Lie spat involving Eastman, Corporon and Denver radio host, Peter Boyles.   Boyles now blames Eastman and Corporon for Big Lie and big threats. Corporon and Eastman dismiss all charges. We've got the sound and smart analysis. Hat tip to Allison Gill and Pete Strzok from Cleanup on Aisle 45. https://statesuniteddemocracy.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Eastman-Decision.pdf

We celebrate the day Dan's wife, Aimee was born with a selection of her favorite songs put together by Ryan for all of the music returning from commercial breaks during the show. Dan announces a boycott of Walgreen's over their decision to provide the 'morning after' abortion pill for customers.

Rundown -   Jane Feldman in the Inner Sanctum of Craig's Lawyers' Lounge - 49:25   Troubadour Dave Gunders - 01:53:58   "When I Die" by Dave Gunders - 02:08:44   Sordid Lauren Boebert incident at the Denver theater is thoroughly reviewed. So is the reaction by members of the Colorado and national media. Remember how Boebert went on Caplis Show to unveil bogus October 2022 surprise claiming her opponent had adulterous sex in a storage trailer in Aspen, a claim later discredited. We do.   We've got the sound of Caplis' reacting to the Boebert incident this week where he goes after the media for letting Dems like Polis and Biden get away with worse. The double standard is real and we use sound to show where it actually exists - on conservative media. Kyle Clark is part of this soundbite story.   Listen to Boebert reading a Caplis-approved script and flubbing it badly. Abortion opposition is a prop for BoBo and many of her fellow travelers, but it works to get some people on her side. And that's all it takes. https://twitter.com/RonFilipkowski/status/1705009115049648439   On the eve of Yom Kippur and G-d knows what else, we bring you both a spiritual and prosecution oriented show. Being Jewish may seem obvious if your name is Feldman, but there's always a little more to the story. The Feldmans were connected to the upper echelon of Manhattan politics.   Jane Feldman's father was a prominent NYC attorney close to the famous Morgenthaus, the most prominent Jewish family in American politics for years. We do a lot of name-dropping, including Kennedys, Roosevelts and celebrities Jane Feldman knew growing up in NY. Jane went on to be a prosecutor for the NYC DA's Office where she served 8+ years.   Jane Feldman also worked as Assistant AG in Colorado. She's in her fifth decade of legal practice now, meaning she enters the INNER SANCTUM reserved for Craig's Act Five Attorneys, now in their fifth decade of practice. Such lawyers are fearless and opinionated. Jane comes through.   An outspoken MAGA critic, Jane is known by Congressman Joe Neguse and others as a great sharp-tongued, fact-checker of MAGA on social media. Feldman calls out conservative disinformation and stands up against Jew haters. We talk about MAGA and bigotry – and how best to react as lawyers.   We analyze the various Trump trials and tribulations. This drama has many NYC components such as Trump and Rudy Giuliani. Go behind the scenes with this NYC connected guest with sharp analytical and prosecutorial skills. Jane Feldman is wise.   Show Troubadour Dave Gunders is great at contemplating the big issues that go with Yom Kippur. It is the day Jews confront their mortality. Gunders does that straight on with his amazing song titled, "When I Die." Is it metaphorical or literal when he says he wants to be laid down in the muddy water of the Mississippi? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbfXJaVSCrI

Rundown -    Bruce Hellerstein - 16:47   Troubadour Dave Gunders - 01:02:38   "World Gone Crazy" by Dave Gunders - 01:15:30   Tom Overton in Craig's Lawyers' Lounge - 01:21:36   Show opening highlights the latest in the prosecutions of Trump for crimes against America. Sound of Kyle Clark documenting Big Lie flowing through Colorado via 630 KHOW and 710 KNUS, and Peter Boyles, Dan Caplis, Randy Corporon, Jenna Ellis, and Joe Oltmann is reviewed. https://www.9news.com/article/news/local/next/next-with-kyle-clark/colorado-conservatives-launched-election-rigging-claims/73-ce86c340-29f3-4ed5-b7b6-87eb3562d393   Bruce Hellerstein is a legendary Denver CPA who helped bring major league baseball to his hometown as part of the Denver Baseball Commission. It's a Cinderella story that flows through George Washington High School where Bruce is being inducted this week (with host!) into the 2023 Hall of Fame class. How many guests have a museum? https://ballparkmuseum.com/ Tom Overton makes a triumphant return to Craig's Lawyers' Lounge emphasizing our legal appreciation of jurors on Colorado's Jury Appreciation Day. Overton is a Bar and Ethics leader entering his fifth decade of practice. This wise head solves problems and is a winning litigator. https://cl.cobar.org/departments/celebrate-jury-appreciation-day-on-september-5/   Mid-show features a crazy good performance by show Troubadour Dave Gunders who gives us his rocking song, World Gone Crazy. Winning performance of his band, the Vipers, at Gold Hill Inn last Saturday night reviewed. Here's some proof of that greatness. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiLexPg0piM   End of the show features fresh outrages uttered by Caplis and Brauchler. MAGA is getting mean. Show responds. Please don't be accusing Fulton County prosecutors of acting like Gestapos. That's beneath Colorado lawyers. Brauchler wants to be DougCo DA but says awful things about alleged punks he yearns to punish.   The Craig Silverman Show - Every Saturday morning at 9 a.m. Colorado time

Dan Caplis discusses panhandlers in Colorado. How should we handle panhandlers legally? And how should we handle panhandlers as citizens? That and much more as Dan also takes phone calls on the upcoming Presidental election.

Rundown -    Jim Benemann - 12:00   Troubadour Dave Gunders - 01:28:00   "Little Hummingbird" by Dave Gunders - 01:54:27   Denver's revered newsman joins the podcast shortly after his celebrated retirement as nightly news anchor at KCNC Channel Four. Jim Benemann did his job superbly for many decades and has a loving family.  https://www.cbsnews.com/colorado/news/jim-benemann-thanks-for-40-years-of-service/   Learn about how this Chicago kid came to Colorado State in 1974 and fell in love with the Centennial State. Benemann has moved to Eagle, Colorado. Find out why. He's still a lively outspoken presence on Twitter.   The livability of Denver back in the day, and now, is reviewed. Metro Denver's high cost of living and the attractiveness of our region has created major changes. Crime and guns, and the fetishization of weapons of war in our communities gets reviewed.   Jim Benemann was assigned long ago to Washington DC where he met luminaries like Senators Barry Goldwater and Sam Nunn. Learn what the GOP's 1964 nominee was like in person. Jim Benemann witnessed the rise and fall and recoveries of respected Senator Gary Hart too.   Reviewed and honored is the living legacy of still living former president Jimmy Carter. Part of that includes Habitats for Humanity, and Jim Benemann is a big time volunteer and advocate for this longstanding and wonderful charitable program. https://twitter.com/jim_benemann/status/1672023237021036544   Contrast with the grifting in the MAGA GOP world where the ethical improprieties of conservative US Supreme Court Justices Thomas/Alito puts American rule of law at increasing risk. Benemann makes great analogies to attempted payola at TV stations that management wisely ended.   Lauren Boebert family crime dramas had news directors and local editors walking on eggs. Learn how local news covers (or pulls its punches) covering GOP-MAGA misconduct in an age where many members of the audience revere the defeated former president.   The advisability of staying on Twitter gets reviewed. So does the proposed UFC cage match between Musk and Zuckerberg. Host puts odds at 5/2 in favor of the younger, better trained man. Learn much more about Jim Benemann's politics than you ever have before.   Talk gets even more spicy as conversation turns to sports. Benemann is an avid golfer but is fed up with the LIV/MBS/MAGA takeover of pro golf and says he won't watch their tournaments any more. But he will keep on playing. Benemann has called a timeout on his hockey playing. Find out why.   As for baseball, disgust is displayed towards the Rockies' ownership and there is major advocacy for a sale of the MLB team to occur. Avs are in good shape but it is sad that Landeskog is out like Benemann. Our Nuggets are set, and victory further celebrated.   Troubadour Dave Gunders celebrates the arrival of summer with his new album named Connections, and his fast sweet colorful song titled Little Hummingbird, in which the migrating bird is asked to bring messages of love and peace. Is that just fiction? Hope not. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opIsiROzQWM   Esperance is what this summer of consequences holds – hopes realized. Putin and Trump face friction in their own radical factions. Bad guys fighting everywhere. Musk v Zuck. MTG v BoBo. Meanwhile, #DenverTrumpRadio turns blind eye.   Caplis turns his show over to unapologetic KBB day after she makes a partisan fool of herself.    RMGO embraced on Caplis show, slamming Steve Reams for being too lib on guns and RFL?!?. Brauchler did weakest interview ever w/ BoBo. Boyles keeps capitulating, and muzzling himself, so he can sell big guns.    We talk about current events including Jack Smith about to further lower the boom on America's defeated, twice-impeached, twice-indicted former president. Adam Schiff is saluted as an American hero. Esperance means hopeful feelings that truth and justice will prevail. Enjoy.

Rundown -    Troubadour Dave Gunders - 28:42   "Your Way Too" by Dave Gunders - 45:04   Spencer Heywood - Star Denver Nugget knows Trump is racist - 51:48   Craig makes his radio case with sound - 01:13:29   What Makes Denver Mayoral Candidates laugh - 02:34:32   Shavuot is the Jewish holiday commemorating receipt of the Law at Mt. Sinai. America's Rule of Law is hanging by a thread now. MAGA's made it happen and must be stopped. Responsible lawyers with broadcasting microphones should join in mitigating this MAGA threat.   Authoritarianism has been seen before and AM radio utilized to propagandize for non-democratic nationalistic movements. American radio has gone rabidly right-wing and focus here is on Colorado and influential local hosts who might help save America. Or not. https://coloradosun.com/2023/05/23/am-radio-trump-opinion-silverman/   At this Memorial Day weekend, America is at an inflection point. Indictments must be brought, and soon, against Trump for his many crimes. These righteous prosecutions will be ripped by irresponsible people – some of whom have radio megaphones. That is dangerous.   Perhaps #DenverTrumpRadio hosts Dan Caplis and George Brauchler will hit their own Trump tipping points. Maybe they just need to better understand cults, hate-groups, MAGA and QAnon. Perchance principles will exceed profits and partisanship as the Trump misbehavior becomes more indefensible.   Listen here as a hapless Caplis caller could not quickly respond for examples of racism on the right. We suggest the banning of Amanda Gorman poems in FL, Judge Curiel's dressing down; Charlottesville, Trump's dinner with Fuentes and Ye, Proud Boys - Stand Back and Stand By, etc.   Helpful QAnon identification suggestions are provided to George Brauchler so he can better defend against Trump-worshiping callers, texters and trollers. Radio has huge reach and on-air lawyers will be consulted when more Trump indictments start flying.   The latest in the Boebert family dysfunction sound is played so people can understand the danger of giving big guns and big power to this poor excuse for a U.S. Congresswoman. Kudos to former Rep. Bob Beauprez calling out Matt Schlapp and MAGA-CPAC for financial improprieties.    Episode 150, Memorial Day, and Shavuot leads to joyous introspection. Troubadour Dave Gunders has been there every step of the way. We get a report on the Caribbean wedding of Sarah and Nick. It was like a beautiful dream. "Your Way Too" is a superb Gunders composition celebrating the spirit of our show.   Show is grateful to have had lots of exciting Nuggets coverage for the last three years. As Denver gets ready to win its first NBA title, we remember our great interview with one of the all-time greatest Denver stars ever – the one and only Spencer Haywood. We've got the audio highlights.   Show is further grateful to be the place where Denver mayoral candidates have come to compete. And have fun. We had laughs on two separate shows with the Denver Mayor run-off candidates Kelly Brough and Mike Johnston. Hear what makes them laugh. This is a fun show.

Rundown -    Ken Toltz - 28:33   Troubadour Dave Gunders - 01:57:56   "Set the Tone" by Dave Gunders - 02:09:18   Current events are coming at us fast and furious. VP Pence testified.  So did E Jean Carroll in the civil case of the century. Trump will soon be found a rapist by a New York jury. Verdict will set the tone for prosecutions to come. Learn about E Jean from entertaining portions of her podcast.   Tucker Carlson was fired this week by Fox News. Dan Caplis suggested Carlson participate in a debate format show like the highly successful and memorable Caplis and Silverman run for near decade on Denver's 630KHOW. Other parts of Caplis analysis reviewed. And taken to task.   Host's feelings about Fox News set forth this week in his Colorado Sun column. Rupert Murdoch is evil. Tucker Carlson is an awful person and people who prop him up are suspect. And dangerous. https://coloradosun.com/2023/04/25/fox-news-carlson-opinion-silverman/   Wonder what is going on in Israel as the Jewish State celebrates her 75th birthday? Ken Toltz, our man in Israel, returns to tell us about Bibi Netanyahu, his three active criminal cases, and the many problems Bibi's corruption has caused.   Ken Toltz is actively participating in pro-democracy rallies throughout Israel. He knows politics and democratic movements. This is the real deal. Listen to how Toltz feels joining his fellow Israelis taking to the streets. The tone is one of optimism.   Find out Ken Toltz's remarkable history in prior episodes 37, 48 and 95, but this show focuses on current events and what happens next. Will there be civil war in Israel? How big a threat is Iran really? What about Israeli gun policies? Do police fight or shoot citizens?   The state of Israeli civil rights is well known to our man in Israel.  Ken Toltz is a wise political pundit who has learned well his new country, and various mediums through which to express himself. https://kentoltz.medium.com/bio-857f0d5aeb16   Ken Toltz talks about the influence of Fox News and right wing religion in Israel. Listen to Toltz wisdom about Russia v. Ukraine gleaned from his April 2023 Passover seder with famous former Chief Rabbi of Moscow, Pinchas Goldschmidt. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinchas_Goldschmidt   Ken Toltz knows Denver, Colorado well and its mayoral finalist candidates. While he respects Mike Johnston, Toltz prefers Kelly Brough who he considers an excellent leader, and Toltz labels a champion CONVENER. Find out what that means.   Troubadour Dave Gunders is brilliant as usual, this time from Jazz Fest in New Orleans. His song, Set the Tone, talks about handling life's vicissitudes and the need to seize every day. Episode 146 takes on the big issues of our day. Understand Israel and the USA better by listening.

Rundown -    Terrance Roberts - 07:59   Dedication to Juniper Eddy Kay - 01:53:05   Troubadour Dave Gunders - 01:56:59   "Talking In Tongues" by Dave Gunders - 02:21:08   Terrance Roberts talks about everything, including Donald Trump in this provocative episode. Roberts knows the state court system through many criminal justice encounters as the defendant. Now, Roberts, the reformed revolutionary, wants to be mayor of his native Denver.   Show starts with a pointed monologue intro on the meaning of the Trump indictment and the ominous disappointment felt when hearing Republican leaders with microphones take the side of Trump against any and all prosecutions. Sad shock expressed at the willingness of Caplis, Brauchler to countenance Trump after his J6 pledge at Waco, his dinner with Nazis, and his bat to head of DA Bragg.    Terrance Roberts loved his native Holly neighborhood of Denver so much, he was willing to die for his hood. And his gang. Roberts (Showbizz) was a major Denver gang member, who rightfully spent a decade in prison, and then reformed. Listen to that fascinating journey, and get a taste of life behind bars.   Host explains his role in trying to solve and prosecute gang homicides, including his response on A Homicide Duty to the 1988 murder of teen Cameron Smith for wearing a red hat as he rode his bike in northeast Denver. Roberts knew the story and the legend, but got educated on things known to the former top prosecutor in Denver. https://www.westword.com/news/the-original-gangster-rap-5054708   While incarcerated, Roberts exercised his body and mind, and then dedicated himself to helping others with his racial justice, and anti-gang message and organization. When the Holly shopping center burned down in 2008, Terrance Roberts stepped in with peaceful solutions, and obvious leadership skills. Along the way, Terrance Roberts' dream of positivity at the Holly went up in gunsmoke.   Terrance Roberts got charged with the shooting of another member of the gang with which he previously affiliated. Fearing for his life, Terrance Roberts went and got his gun, and shot a man numerous times at a public event. Roberts was arrested and charged with Attempted First Degree Murder by the Denver DA's Office. It is the subject of the hit book and movie titled, The Holly. https://thehollyfilm.com/   Terrance Roberts testified at his attempted murder trial, and experienced skillful cross-examination by Denver Chief Deputy DA Henry Cooper. The trial was full of dramatic twists and turns. Along the way, Roberts publicly vented against elected Denver DA Mitch Morrissey for treating him too harshly. When compared to Trump's castigations of NY prosecutor Bragg, Roberts ably defends himself.    Listen to how Terrance Roberts became a Denver racial justice protester and a community leader. In wake of Geroge Floyd murder, Terrance Roberts helped lead racial justice groups that were infiltrated by FBI informant, Mickey, as described in Alphabet Boys podcast (our Episode 138). Listen to Terrance Roberts describe his attitude towards Mickey and Alphabet Boys.   Terrance Roberts brings hard-earned, fascinating, and provocative perspectives to this wide open Denver mayor's race. He knows the streets of northeast Denver, and the impact of culture and poverty. Terrance Roberts demonstrates that he has an inquisitive mind, sharp intellect, and a desire to help people. Roberts now gets recognized on American streets because of the success of The Holly movie, which is terrific entertainment. So is Roberts on this podcast.   Show Troubadour Dave Gunders rocks and rolls the end of the show with his lively conversation, and outstanding song titled, "Talking in Tongues." The origin of the song is discussed along with the legal travails of now indicted Donald Trump in his native NYC. Perfect place for prosecuting the Big Apple's homegrown monster. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3e-8WoYM9Pk   Trump gave green light for violence to his followers, by singing an anthem with the J6 prisoners, promising them exonerations, and dining at Mar-a-Lago with neo-Nazi Nick Fuentes, and Kanye West. Despite this authoritarian dinner, and the bat to Bragg's head picture Trump posted, the GOP and R/W pundits stay with the defeated former president who'll be arraigned on Tuesday, the same day Denver votes for Mayor. What a consequential Tuesday upcoming.   What a country, city, and state. What a world, what a life, what a day. The April Fools edition of The Craig Silverman Show is no joke. Terrance Roberts is a serious candidate for Denver mayor. MAGA might be funny (president pokes porn star) if it was not so serious. Enjoy this show.
