“Where should I bury a body?” -On June 28, 2007, single mom Paige Birgfeld goes on a date with her high school sweetheart, but when she doesn't return home that night, her father, Frank, drops everything to find her, launching a massive search across Grand Junction, Colorado. 3 days later, investigators find Paige's car on fire in an abandoned parking lot, but the missing mom is still nowhere to be found. However, investigators uncover something sinister in the ashes: a double life Paige had kept secret for years, and as things come to light, many suspects emerge, but Frank refuses to give up, even when everyone else does. What he uncovers will haunt the small town, revealing a terrifying killer hidden in plain sight, and set the stage for long-awaited justice.---CreditsWritten, directed & edited by Alexandre GendronResearch by Bianca Yzabelle TanVoiceover by William AkanaProduced by Alexandra Salois & Salim Sader---SourcesGetty Images48 Hours: The Secret Life of Paige Birgfeld, CBS Interactive, 2017. 20/20: If I Can't Have You, ABC, ABC Entertainment, 2021.Mom with secret double life as escort murdered, True Crime News, Telepictures Productions, 2024.Dateline: Double Lives, NBC, NBCUniversal Media, 2017.

In this compelling episode of American Potential, host David From welcomes Congressman Jeff Hurd, a freshman lawmaker representing Colorado's vast and beautiful Third Congressional District. Congressman Hurd shares his journey from humble beginnings bagging groceries in Grand Junction to earning law degrees, practicing energy law, and now serving in Congress. Drawing on his experience as a small business owner and father of five, Congressman Hurd discusses how bad energy policy acts as a hidden tax on rural Americans—and why reversing those policies is essential to economic opportunity. He outlines his legislative efforts to return the Bureau of Land Management headquarters to Colorado, promote responsible energy development, and fight for rural families who want to stay, work, and raise their children in the communities they love. The conversation also dives into the importance of making the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act permanent. Congressman Hurd explains how those tax cuts have directly impacted working families and small businesses in his district and why allowing them to expire would be a devastating tax hike on the middle class. From energy independence to economic freedom, Congressman Hurd brings a clear-eyed focus and a personal commitment to building a better future for rural America. Don't miss this inspiring and informative episode.

Welcome back to Divorce at Altitude with Ryan Kalamaya! In this episode, Ryan is joined by co-host and family law attorney Amy Goscha to explore how property division impacts spousal maintenance in Colorado divorce cases.Whether you're a high-net-worth individual or navigating a more modest estate, understanding the relationship between property distribution and support obligations is critical. Ryan and Amy unpack how Colorado law approaches these issues and the strategic implications for both parties in a divorce.Episode HighlightsProperty First, Then Maintenance Learn why Colorado courts divide property before considering spousal maintenance—and how the type, value, and liquidity of assets can affect support awards.High-Net-Worth Divorce Scenarios Does $10 million mean no spousal maintenance? Ryan and Amy explain why wealth doesn't always eliminate support obligations.Asset Composition Matters From businesses to brokerage accounts to homes, not all assets are created equal when calculating income and support.Lifestyle & Location How lifestyle differences between Aspen and Grand Junction might impact maintenance—and why judges consider reasonable needs and cost of living.Disproportionate Property Awards Why courts may prefer awarding a greater share of property to avoid ongoing maintenance obligations—and how that plays into long-term financial planning.Key Takeaways• Colorado is an equitable—not equal—distribution state. Property division isn't always 50/50.• The more property a party receives, the less likely they are to qualify for spousal maintenance. • Maintenance is based on both need and ability to pay, and judges often consider the type of asset, lifestyle, and long-term earning capacity.• Financial experts can play a key role in helping determine reasonable needs, passive income potential, and net spendable income.
