Mayor Mike Johnston was in DC on Wednesday for a high-stakes congressional hearing as part of the House Oversight Committee's investigation into “sanctuary jurisdictions.” With threats of federal funding cuts looming, the mayor defended his approach to immigration and faced hard questions from Republicans, including Rep. Lauren Boebert. We watched the whole marathon hearing, and then we sat down with returning guest and State Sen. Julie Gonzales, who has worked on immigration issues for more than 15 years, to decode the political theater and talk about what's at stake for Denverites and our new neighbors.  We mentioned our interview with Mayor Johnston last week and his comments on how he has been preparing for this investigation. You might also be interested in reading some of the national coverage of Mayor Johnston's trip to DC, like this report from The Wall Street Journal, or one of these liveblogs of the hearing from our friends at Denverite or The Denver Post. We didn't even talk about the accusation that Mayor Johnston violated federal law! Senadora Gonzales mentioned the fact that the conservative-leaning Cato Institute has reported that President Trump's policies are costly and making America less safe.  How do you think the mayor did in DC?

Man oh man was it great to get behind the decks and record a mix for the show! On this episode I introduced the Throwback Track idea where I'll be playing at least one throwback track in every set. One of my best friends and DJ mentor Dean is helping me with the second introduction. But first, you can find his mixes in Mixcloud under Graphtek. Ok, back to the second thing, guest mixes! for the show. Guest mixes! I'll be posting guest mixes along with my mix on some of the episodes moving forward. Hope you enjoy the mix, and the guest mix by Graphtek! Also, I will continue to use a photo that I have taken as my album covers, and this episodes is one of the most beautiful places we have been to in CO. Maroon Bells!

My guest today is Eric Clarke.  Eric might be best known in business world as CEO at Orion Advisor Services.  But Eric also embodies the idea of the Everyday Explorer as well!  He is a man of many talents as you will find out, but exudes widsom and humility with each word.  What became clear to me is that Eric is made for doing hard things.  He has built a mantra around doing the 'easy things' first (like running the first 18 miles of a marathon) so that he can get to work on the 'hard things' (such as the final 8 miles).  The hard things are where we learn most about ourselves.  You will learn how he plans his adventures and expects the inevitable pain cave that comes when one reaches for the limits of what is possible.  There is much to this conversation, and even if you have known Eric for a while, there are still gold nuggets in this conversation to pull from his experiences.  From the Grand Canyon to the Napali coast of Kauai to the Four Pass loop around the Maroon Bells in Colorado, Eric's stories will hopefully inspire you to pursue your own great adventure!

The skiing in Aspen is world-renowned, and it's easy to understand why. The mountains are full of challenging slopes that appeal to all levels of skiers and snowboarders. The Aspen area is known for its abundant snowfall yet sunny days. The ski season in Aspen typically runs from November through April, but the best time to ski Aspen is the end of January to early February. Consisting of 4 mountains, Aspen is a very large resort but very easy to navigate with the well-organized bus system. Whether you're an expert or a beginner, you'll find plenty of runs to enjoy. Sebastian's favorite mountain was Highlands which had the most advanced terrain. Ajax, also known as Aspen mountain, is the "locals" mountain with great advanced skiing. Buttermilk is the best mountain for beginners. Snowmass is the largest mountain and a more extensive resort; however, it is where most of the traffic can be found. Sebastian also stayed in Snowmass and stopped for snacks at Snowmass Mall. On all of Aspen's mountains, the expert terrain is easily accessible, which is not the case in all mountain resorts.Aspen is also home to some of the best hiking trails in Colorado. There are dozens of trails in and around Aspen, ranging from easy to difficult. Many of these trails are accessible even in the winter months, and the views of the surrounding mountains are breathtaking. In the summer, you can also find plenty of other outdoor activities in the area, such as rafting, mountain biking, and horseback riding. When the sun goes down, Aspen transforms into a vibrant nightlife scene. There are countless bars, restaurants, and nightclubs to explore in the city, as well as numerous music festivals throughout the year. For those looking for a more laid-back evening, there are plenty of cozy pubs and cafes to choose from. Some of Sebastian's favorite restaurants he and Jess visited in Aspen were French Alpine Bistro, Almresi, and Venga Venga. French Alpine Bistro is an upscale spot with excellent fondu, beef bourguignon, and truffle and cheese gnocchi. The best part? You can find amazing vintage wine such as the Portuguese 2019 pinot noir called Quinta Do Javali, Clos Fonte Do Santo. Another great dinner spot, Almresi, had tasty beef stroganoff, and must-have fondue.Some of Seb's favorite bar recommendations are Hooch Cocktail Bar, which has an excellent Mezcal drink, and a dive bar called Silver City. If you are incredibly boujee and looking for a one-of-a-kind "experience," visit Cloud 9 off the Cloud 9 chairlift. Cloud 9 is famous for its Veuve Clicquot parties.Whether you are on a honeymoon, a birthday trip, or a vacation break,  Aspen is the perfect destination for an unforgettable vacation. From world-class skiing to vibrant nightlife, you'll have a blast at any time with anyone in Aspen.

“这是一个在大山里的小镇，好多的屋子都已经年久失修，看上去有一些历史的旅社也几乎荒废，街上也不时的有游民和酒鬼咆哮，虽然在雪山一旁，但似乎时间在这个地方停止，数十年如一日，滑雪设备还蛮阳春的”，这是伊丽莎白佩普基（Elizabeth Paepcke）和友人到这个科州小镇的第一印象，但她却爱上了这里的宁静，这里的与世无争，在往后的几十年里这个小镇就如她和先生的世外桃源，他们一手一脚把这个小镇从一个蓬头垢面的姑娘，打扮成了雍容华贵的公主，这一年是1939年，这个小镇叫做阿斯彭（Aspen）。其实一开始佩普基先生（Walter Paepcke）对这个让太太一见钟情的地方没有特别的印象，一直到1945年才踏足这里，但在商场打滚多年的他看到了这里的未来，这里发展的无限前景。此后他买下了这里不少因为欠税被政府充公的地皮。1946年起他陆陆续续的创立了阿斯彭滑雪公司（Aspen Ski Company），造了世界最长的滑雪吊车，找了世界著名滑雪场建筑师为这个城市改装，但他知道阿斯彭需要的是一个契机，让大家能够看见它的美，感受到它的独一无二的契机。1949年是古典主义代表人物，著名诗人，剧作家，文学家歌德（Johann Wolfgang von Goethe）的200岁冥诞，这个就是佩普基先生期待已久让阿斯彭登上世界舞台的契机。在那个二战过后世界动荡的年代，佩普基先生请缨在阿斯彭举办一场纪念歌德生辰的活动（Goethe Bicentennial），邀请世界最知名的哲学家，文学家，音乐家，到阿斯彭这个世外桃源，汇聚一堂，来一场思想风暴，讨论今后世界的何去何从。他广发英雄帖，邀请了数千位有影响力的绅士名媛到阿斯彭来欣赏被誉为二十世纪最杰出钢琴家的鲁宾斯坦（Arthur Rubinstein）演奏，来凝听曾经拿过三次普利兹奖（Pulitzer Prize）的美国著名小说家，剧作家桑顿怀尔德（Thornton Wilder），曾经提名过10次诺贝尔文学奖，7次诺贝尔和平奖的德国神学家马丁布伯（Martin Buber），著名西班牙哲学家加塞特（José Ortega y Gasset）等等带领当时世界思想的巨擎分享他们的所思所想。而最让人津津乐道的是这个活动还邀请到了从未踏足美国，一生在非洲奉献行医被誉为现代基督的丛林医生圣哲史怀哲（Albert Schweitzer）驾临，这是史怀哲医生唯一一次来到美国，让世界媒体聚焦阿斯彭，提升了阿斯彭的高度，也打造了阿斯彭这个名牌。两年后安塞尔亚当斯（Ansel Adams）在湖畔拍下那张让世人惊艳的褐铃山（Maroon Bells）美景，自此永远改变了阿斯彭和褐铃山的命运则是后话。而后佩普基先生创立了世界著名的阿斯彭学院（Aspen Institute），这些年来每一年都广邀群贤，到这里高谈阔论，各抒己见，让阿斯彭论坛成为了带领世界思想潮流的华山论剑，也让阿斯彭如同一颗明星一样继续发光发亮。

Maroon Bells, Aspen, CO Dale clic para verla grande Hoy regresa Hablando de Tecnología con una variedad de temas típica de nuestros programas. Comenzamos deseándole todo lo mejor a nuestro amigo Julio García Saladín de la República Dominicana quién está atravesando por un quebranto de salud. Julio es uno de esos oyentes asiduos que escuchan, comentan y contribuyen a Hablando de tecnología sea cada vez mejor. También hablamos de la encuesta que celebramos durante pasado mes de abril. En ella comprobamos muchas cosas que ya sabíamos. Hablamos sobre micrófonos, consolas, hospedaje cibernético, entrevistas, entrevistados, intros, outros, anuncios y muchas cosas más. También hablamos del viaje de 10 semanas que hicimos Zory y yo por los Parques Nacionales de los Estados Unidos. En esta ocasión visitamos Great Sand Dunes National Park, Black Canyon of the Gunisson National Park, Mesa Verde National Park, Rocky Mountain National Park, Maroon Bells State Park, Yellowstone National Park, Grand Teton National Park, Shoshone Falls State Park, Zion National Park, Capitol Reef National Park, Arches National Park (por segunda vez), Canyonlands National Park, Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument, Dead Horse Point State Park y Cedar Breaks National Monument. En total diez parques nacionales, un monumento nacional, tres parques estatales, el Jardín Botánico de Tulsa y el Zoológico de Oklahoma City. Transitamos un total de 8,400 millas por carretera. La navegante y encargada de transportación y alojamiento fue Zoraida y el piloto fui yo. Para realizar este viaje utilizamos una serie de recursos tecnológicos que discuto en detalle en este capítulo. También hablamos sobre la más reciente incursión de Google en el mundo del podcasting, esta vez mediante su web app para teléfonos Androide y PCs “Google Podcasts”. ¿Hará esto una diferencia en términos de audiencia? Ya veremos. Hablamos también sobre la decisión de la Corte Suprema de los Estados Unidos que exige que las empresas que vendan productos a través de la Internet se vean obligadas a cobrar los impuestos aplicables en cada estado en el que hagan negocios. Finalmente, hablamos de una noticia que debió haber causado interés a nivel mundial y sólo apareció en el periódico El Pais de España. Se trata de que científicos de ese país han logrado impedir la metástasis en casos de cáncer avanzados.

Welcome to Valley Roundup, a review of the top news stories in the valley in the past week. The lodging review continues in Aspen and for the city council, this week, it was a mixed bag. Meanwhile, the city employees reviewing those plans are looking for a new home of their own. A proposed pot growing operation faces the NIMBY wrath in Silt. Do we love the Maroon Bells too much and is that a problem? Should Garfield County voters have the chance to vote for commissioners by district instead of at large? Aspen and Glenwood Springs are going all mail balloting this spring And what’s the lowdown on uphilling? That’s a conference coming on that topic. Joining me this week are Curtis Wackerle, Managing Editor of the Aspen Daily News and Randy Essex, Editor of the Glenwood Post Independent.

In this inaugural show, author and historian, Doug Scott, talks about the origins of the ongoing movement to protect America's wilderness. Then producer Marci Krivonen explores one of the first wilderness areas protected by the Wilderness Act of 1964, the Maroon Bells/Snowmass Wilderness in Colorado. Marci joins Jamie Harrison and Kitty Winograd at the outset of a 14-mile day-hike, despite an ominous-looking sky and muddy trail, and along the way enjoys some of the local fauna and flora. Marci visits Connie Harvey and Joy Caudill. These women, along with the late Dottie Fox, are known as the "Maroon Belles," three women who began the work 50 years ago inspiring wilderness advocates to protect pristine places in western Colorado-including much of the Maroon Bells/Snowmass Wilderness. A wilderness designation unfortunately isn't enough to protect the most popular areas, like Conundrum Hot Springs. Wilderness rangers, Kevin Frazier and Tsipora Prochovnick, and ranger intern, Noah Teller, discuss some of the challenges of protecting high-use destinations. Every visitor can help them out by applying the seven principles of Leave No Trace. Marci wraps up her visit with the rest of the story about Jamie and Kitty's hike. Doug Scott's book is The Enduring Wilderness: Protecting Our Natural Heritage through the Wilderness Act. Additional music was Spring by the artist QQQ, and Silver Sliver by Podington_Bear, both from the Free Music Archive.
