The legendary Ozzy Osbourne passed away! Rick Lewis came on to break it down with us.
OZZY OSBOURNE PASSED AWAY during our show so we had to react to it. Willie B and Rick Lewis from our sister stations KBPI and The Fox respectively came on with us to discuss the icon's passing.MAYOR MIKE JOHNSTON HAS ROSE COLORED GLASSES ON If you listened to his State of the City address you would think Denver is just a ragtag little community fighting the BIG EVIL of the federal government to protect innocent people from being thrown out of the country. It was utter claptrap. It wasn't all delusional, as the Mayor touted a dropping violent crime rate and a slightly lower number of homeless people living on the streets. But he wants us to believe all the evils Denver is dealing with right now are because of the Trump administration, which is poppycock.
