Chaz Ebert, CEO of Ebert Digital and publisher of RogerEbert.com, joins us for an intimate conversation about continuing her late husband Roger Ebert's extraordinary legacy while forging her own path as a champion of empathy and understanding. Chaz shares how Roger's unwavering belief in movies as "empathy machines" continues to shape her work and advocacy.  We dive into her new book, It's Time to Give a FECK, which expands upon the FECK Awards—a playful yet profound acronym celebrating films that embody Forgiveness, Empathy, Compassion, and Kindness. Chaz reveals how these values have become more than just criteria for recognizing cinema; they represent a transformative philosophy for living that she's now sharing with readers everywhere.  Chaz also shares the inside scoop about her own film and directorial debut "Wellness Warrior" which tells the story of the creation of Rancho La Puerta, the famed wellness retreat by 103 year old Deborah Szekely - the "Godmother of Wellness."  Chaz opens up about the power of forgiveness in her own journey, the compassion required to navigate profound loss, and why kindness isn't weakness but rather the strongest foundation for meaningful change. Her insights reveal how Roger's generous spirit and radical empathy continue to inspire new generations of film lovers, critics, and creators—and how she's ensuring that legacy remains a living, breathing force for good in an increasingly divided world.

When it was first revealed that Denver was getting a new professional women's soccer team, many Denverites were thrilled! Including Mayor Mike Johnston, who has become Denver Summit FC's chief cheerleader. But he's been in hot water lately with city council, and now they're throwing the brakes on public subsidies he wants for a new soccer stadium. Host Bree Davies and producer Paul Karolyi have been following the project, and they're breaking down all the latest twists and turns. Plus, some listener questions on bike lanes and Colorado's claims to food fame; and, when is it going to snow already? What do you think about the stadium politics? Should council put up the money? Or should Denver risk losing the NWSL franchise to Lone Tree or Centennial?

Earlier this month Denver voters approved the Vibrant Denver bond, saying yes to some ambitious city projects -- like the ⁠Denver American Indian Cultural Embassy⁠, which will be built in Montbello. City council also recently approved a study to look at ⁠potentially widening Peña Boulevard⁠ and Mayor Johnston and Denver International Airport CEO Phil Washington announced plans to look at ⁠bringing nuclear power⁠ to the airport. These projects are going down in Councilwoman Stacie Gilmore's District 11, and she's got a lot to say about it. Gilmore joins host Bree Davies to dig into these city plans, plus share why she thinks ⁠the mayor's layoffs⁠ are having lasting effects on the trust those workers put into local government.  Bree mentioned a recent episode we aired about ⁠AI Data Centers⁠, and the Denver Post editorial board's ⁠comments on Gilmore and the city layoffs⁠.

This Week in Cleantech is a weekly podcast covering the most impactful stories in clean energy and climate in 15 minutes or less featuring Paul Gerke of Factor This and Tigercomm's Mike Casey. This week's episode features special guest Rachel Frazin from The Hill, who wrote about Democrats' plans to continue to focus on rising electricity prices in hopes that it's a winning strategy. This week's "Cleantecher of the Week" is Tyler Norris, Head of Market Innovation at Google. Tyler wrote an op-ed in The New York Times about how we can manage rising electricity demand without driving up costs for households. His main point is that load growth presents an opportunity to offset upward pressure on electricity rates, if we plan the system to make fuller use of the infrastructure we've already paid for.

On November 9, Pete's University Park Cafe served up its last heaping plates of chicken fried steak and souvlaki and eggs, marking the end for yet another beloved diner. With its closure, Denver not only lost an affordable eatery, but a gathering place and community space that served the Mile High for 30 years. So, what is Denver without its diners? Last year host Bree Davies sat down with her friend, poet and educator Suzi Q. Smith, to talk about these losses and discuss the deep feelings Suzi explores in her ⁠Denverse Magazine essay “Toast World: Where Have All the Diners Gone?”⁠ Oh, and be sure to grab a ticket to our first-ever The Denver-est Denver Awards, presented by our friends at Denver Health!

This off-year election saw big wins for democrats across the country, including in Aurora. Most notably, ⁠GOP rabble rouser Danielle Jurinsky⁠ lost her at-large seat as Aurora city council moved more to the left with the 7-4 conservative majority becoming a 6-4 progressive majority. But Aurora Sentinel editor and publisher Dave Perry says the political picture of Colorado's third largest city is more nuanced than just this recent swing. He joins host Bree Davies to dig into what he's seen in his 30 years covering the state's most diverse municipality, and what it means for Aurora to have a now left-leaning council and a lifelong republican for mayor. Bree and Dave discussed his piece on Jurinsky's ouster and ⁠Aurora's “council chaos and felony weirdness”⁠, along with unseated council member Steve Sundberg's ⁠sexual harassment allegations⁠ and ⁠the racist commercials⁠ he made for his sports bar.  Oh, and be sure to grab a ticket to our first-ever The Denver-est Denver Awards!

Tell us what you think of the show! Ready or not, electric vehicle adoption is happening in America. It feels like we've reached an inflection point- especially as range increases, EVs are simply proving to be a better mousetrap- and now there's a race coast-to-coast to bulk up the charging infrastructure needed to enable the scaling of fleets and longhaul trucking. That's no easy thing to figure out- developers must work closely with utilities to bring these power-sucking sites online without overworking the local grid. And since everyone needs power YESTERDAY, there's a timeliness component to this too- and we all know time means money.The Electric Power Research Institute, better known as EPRI, is taking on the challenge of connecting the dots and facilitating a planning process for the deployment of EV charging projects.On this episode, Factor This Content Director Paul Gerke is joined by EPRI director of transportation Britta Gross to discuss GridFAST, a central, secure portal designed to improve communication between stakeholders, bringing them together early on to ensure everyone gets what they want, when they want it- or as close to it as possible.Want to make a suggestion for This Week in Cleantech?

As the government shutdown rolls on, the Federal Aviation Administration has instructed airports across the country to cut hundreds of flights to help with staffing shortages. Denver International Airport, however, is trying something unique to support the air traffic controllers and TSA agents working without pay.

Sarah is working to make radical changes to the future of work – specifically empowering organizations to embrace non-traditional and independent workforces, all with the goal of having an impact on the advancement of women. On episode 9 I interviewed a woman, Neha Ruch, who is championing the Power Pause – which is a rebranded way to talk about career driven women who decide to take a career break to focus on raising their young children. There is a lot of fear around this process – being a woman and a mother and getting back in the mix after a pause, and how challenging that is in a world where employers are still stuck in industrial-age thinking. To help address those fears, we have Sarah! In this episode we talk about:The concept of a portfolio career, Creating multiple income streams, and How you can use this approach to grow your career in a different way. Spoiler alert – you still have to do some grunt work in the beginning before you can reach a point where you can focus on doing the work that really drives you and ignites your passion and makes you feel successful. People are multi-faceted, yet we are expected to fit into a traditional mold and follow a linear path and take no breaks lest we appear unfocused or undedicated in the corporate world.Her firm The FEAT's mission is providing support for women and family life that goes beyond maternity leave and focuses on the return to work. Creating real change doesn't happen with things like internal women's support networks. It requires a deep look at what actually drives success – hint: success isn't dependent on how many hours you're sitting at your desk in the office anymore. FEAT is a female focused endeavor triggered by Sarah's realization that there is a large group of untapped talent - independent women not actively working. It then grew into both men and women asking the question - How do we remove the stigma of “independent work” – independent contractors. How do we measure productivity and talent in a new way?Why you should stay until the end:Make sure you listen all the way through, because Sarah has answers to these incredibly important questions and more.

Tell us what you think of the show! The U.S. residential solar industry has seen better days. Electricity bill credits in rooftop solar-saturated states like California are a fraction of what they once were. Tariffs have made components more expensive, just as federal tax credits are set to sunset. Anti-renewables legislation is casting a long and dark shadow, and a series of bankruptcies among established names in the space has cast further doubt on whether the dollars and cents still make dollars and sense.But at least one man thinks residential solar can reach a point of profitability. In fact, he's actively proving it.TJ Rogers, the CEO of SunPower, has led an illustrious career in the solar and semiconductor space. An outspoken free-market evangelist, Rodgers possesses a clear vision of what he believes an American home solar company should be.
