Ren takes us inside the world of Audacious Theatre, where immersive, sensory-driven productions push the boundaries of live performance through collaboration, innovation, and cross-cultural creativity. From staging experiences that surround the audience to exploring the strange ways stories connect us, this episode blends the quirky, the thoughtful, and the theatrical. As always, we've got the top Denver news and things to do on our radar this week as well. Rebel Bread bakery Rougarou (Five Points) News: Denver has the state's first two-star Michelin restaurant LINK The Wolf's Tailor earned two Michelin stars in the new guide, becoming the first Colorado restaurant to reach that level while several others gained or maintained status. Denverite The big rhino is here, but what's next for Denargo Market?

Mare reproductive challenges can range from endometritis to ovarian irregularities such as hemorrhagic anovulatory follicles, ovarian hematomas, and persistent corpora lutea, all of which can disrupt normal cycles and fertility. Older mares often face anatomical complications that increase contamination and impair conception. Hormonal tumors such as granulosa-theca cell tumors might spur erratic behaviors and cycle abnormalities, while pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID, formerly Cushing's disease) can further dampen reproductive performance by causing abnormal cycles, anovulation, and recurring endometritis. Vigilant diagnostics—including ultrasound, hormone panels, and uterine evaluation—are essential in identifying and managing these issues efficiently. During this Ask TheHorse Live Q&A two experts answer your questions about common mare reproductive problems. This episode is sponsored by Equithrive. About the Experts: Carleigh Fedorka, PhD, assistant professor of equine reproductive physiology at Colorado State University, in Fort Collins, is a global expert in reproductive immunology. She has focused her research on understanding the relationship between the immune system and the reproductive tract, evaluating the efficacy of treatments on various reproductive disorders, and discovering biomarkers for reproductive health. Fedorka earned her BS degree from St. Lawrence University, in Canton, New York, and her PhD in Veterinary Sciences from the University of Kentucky, in Lexington, after working in the industry as a manager of a commercial Thoroughbred breeding farm. She maintains a presence in the equine industry by retraining countless off the track Thoroughbreds, including her personal event horses Judge Johnny (JJ) and Strike Two (Jeter). In her spare time, she enjoys fly fishing, spending time with her husband and their dog, and cheering on the Buffalo Bills.Jenna Ward, DVM, Dipl. ACT, is a clinician and lecturer in large animal reproduction at the University of Pennsylvania's New Bolton Center, in Kennett Square. She earned her DVM at Texas A&M University, in College Station. Ward's research includes stallion reproductive health and genetic-related embryonic loss in horses.
Despite the buzz around AI and social media, word of mouth is still the most powerful tool for building a community. In this episode, Suzanne Carver, a massage therapist, yoga teacher, and pelvic health educator, shares her journey of establishing a successful practice through grassroots and word-of-mouth methods. Suzanne discusses her experiences transitioning her practice from Fort Collins, Colorado, to Nashville, Tennessee, and the changing dynamics of client attention spans. Our conversation explores effective offline strategies, the importance of personal connections, and integrating technology like text messaging to stay top of mind with clients. Suzanne also shares insights on maintaining authenticity in client communications and the challenges of building a practice in a new city.

Welcome to another episode of the Loco Experience Podcast. On today's show, I sat down with Jordan Bonifas, founder of Bonifas Coaching.

Making beer commercially in New York City is so difficult that it all but stopped until the previous decade's craft-beer boom rekindled the fire. Today, about 40 breweries make beer in the city, but doing so comes with its own set of rules. Beyond the regulatory and logistical hurdles, there's an underlying creative challenge: NYC is the culinary capital of the United States, and competition for space on bar and restaurant menus is pitched. Without great beer, great branding, a point of view, and a way to generate new and engaging stories, it's easy for a brewery to get lost in the noise. That's why KCBC (https://kcbcbeer.com)—opened in 2016 by homebrewers-turned-pros in the vibrantly diverse Bushwick neighborhood—leans into the city's energy with graphic storytelling through branding, and with a constantly shifting lineup that tells interesting tales about the wider world of beer. In this episode, cofounder Tony Bellis and head brewer Bobby Rolandi discuss: brewing hazy IPA with Voss kveik rather than more popular strains drier New England–style IPAs with finishing gravities around 3.5°P (1.014) developing three distinct templates for hazy IPA recipes avoiding chewier grains such as oats in favor of flaked and malted wheat fermenting cooler and with a cooler dry hop for smoother extraction achieving modern flavors in West Coast–style IPAs using classic hops experimenting with hops and fermentation in the lager space using 34/70 for IPA fermentation while using a Budvar-derived strain for lagers And more.

Today, building a deep, meaningful supply chain for interesting ingredients animates him more than lighting up the beer-trading boards.

Hemp-derived THC products, including beverages, have exploded on the market in recent years as producers take advantage of a federal legal loophole that leaves the products legal—or at least not-illegal—in many states. Much of this nascent beverage market is focused on seltzer-style minimalism or sweet, fruit-forward drinks, but Connecticut's Float House (https://floathouse.co) is making the case for beer aroma and flavor as the category develops. In this episode, cofounders Gordon Whelpley and Jared Emerling—alumni of Connecticut and New York breweries that include Two Roads, Sixpoint, Twelve Percent Beer Project, and Stony Creek—discuss their approach to making hop-driven THC beverages that drink like nonalcoholic beers. Along the way, they touch on: launching a THC beverage brand in an uncertain environment the current regulatory framework for producing and selling hemp-derived beverages creatively designing beer-focused beverages in a space with infinite possibility building balanced flavor and mouthfeel in hopp-forward NA brews creating body using novel hop products the difference between nonconverted and converted hemp-derived THC how CBD modulates the body's uptake of THC the benefits of beverage-sipping as a slow ingestion mode for THC And more.

Eric and Cassy Reeves are a type 1 and 9 respectively. We would like to say sparks fly in this episode, but it is hard for a type 9 to allow sparks to fly...especially if it involves conflict. We had such a beautiful and insightful conversation with this awesome couple! You will want to listen and share it.Type 1. Reformer/perfectionistType 2.

This week we return from our July break with episode 65 of Music in the Minor League. This episode brings us back to our near second home at this point: Fort Collins, CO. We'll be talking to Slp (pronounced 'slip') of Maudlyn Monroe.Classically trained, with a love for riot grrl and 70's NY punk, Maudlyn Monroe is a vocalist/guitarist/saxophonist/pianist with an up-tempo emo feel—an electrified lackadaisical punk. Their voice, with its three octave range, has been called "angelic" and "soulful", "bird-like" and "desperate", and lends to quiet folk contemplation, shocking soul, and raw punk sounds.We had an absolute blast spending an evening discussing music, life and so much else with Slp. If y'all have half as much fun listening as we did recording this one, this will be one of our most popular episodes. Enjoy!

In Whitestown, Indiana, just outside Indianapolis, this small-town lager brewery has made big waves with multiple World Beer Cup golds for its märzen, Follow the Lederhosen—not to mention a WBC silver for its pale Skool House Bock, knockout scores (https://beerandbrewing.com/beer-reviews/?q=moontown&hPP=30&idx=dato_cbb_web_review_search&p=0) from Craft Beer & Brewing Magazine® judges, and five GABF medals for various lagers. However, Moontown's (https://www.moontownbeer.com) success is a story of working within the confines of their two-vessel system to find processes that produce the flavors they want. Step-mashing is a must, and their mashout decoction—while not a traditional one, by any means—gives them an extra nudge of flavor and attenuation. In this episode, director of brewing operations Cody Peczkowski talks about the deep influence of his experience brewing for the Gordon Biersch chain, and the how his approach to recipe design has developed in the ensuing years. Along the way, he touches on: focusing on premium ingredients for better beer step-mashing a hazy IPA adjusting the step-mash regimen for body or better attenuation using a mashout decoction process on their two-vessel brewhouse brewing two different märzens with different origin malts, including both German and American craft malts bunging rather than spunding tanks managing competition beers that are “too hoppy” bringing alcohol levels down in malt-forward lager taking a hop-forward approach to West Coast–style pils asking the question, “What would Gordon Biersch do?” And more.

Portland, Oregon's proximity to hop country gives its brewers an enviable perspective on hop flavors, aromas, evolving technologies, and seasonal expressions, and the brewers at Ruse (https://www.rusebrewing.com) don't take that for granted. When developing recipes, cofounder Shaun Kalis loves pushing the envelope to find additional intensity using the latest flowable hop products, but he also finds punch and flavor density in previous generations of products, used judiciously in combination with hops in other formats. Through this episode, Kalis discusses: using flaked wheat and flaked rice to lower FAN and increase the snap early pick Columbus for bittering and a healthy dose of CO2 extracted Mosaic or Simcoe with T-90's for long-lasting hop flavor selecting different expressions within the same hop variety for layering character in IPA lifting up hop flavors by boosting underlying dankness adjusting pH while brewing fresh hop beers hot side hopping for more impactful and long-lasting flavor applying new ideas to hazy IPA And more.

Whitney Burnside built her résumé at some of the best breweries in the Pacific Northwest, so when she and her husband Doug—a celebrated chef—embarked on their post-COVID project of working together on a brewpub they dubbed Grand Fir (https://www.grandfirbrewing.com), the Portland beer world grew excited (we did too—for more, see Kate Bernot's case study on Grand Fir (https://brewingindustryguide.com/case-study-grand-fir) from our Spring 2024 issue of the Brewing Industry Guide). Now, not yet three years old but with three World Beer Cup medals and three Great American Beer Festival medals under their belt, Grand Fir continues to garner attention for remarkable beer. Burnside loves hoppy beers with personality, and the brewpub and beers themselves ooze character, with defining forest flavor and aroma notes anchoring wider exploration. This conversation centers on West Coast and contemporary American IPA, with a focus on how Burnside often uses large blends of hops to build layers of character. Along the way, she discusses: building ultra-lean, 1.5°P FG West Coast IPA with intense hop character blending base malts for color and body in smaller hoppy beers differentiating between “traditional American” and “West Coast” IPA using classic hops in modern formats selecting malt to support the strong flavors of New Zealand hops constructing nuanced hop blends with five or more varieties And more.
