Tucked between two of Colorado's most towering mountain ranges is a landscape that feels almost fictional. 30 square miles of dunes rising taller than the Gateway Arch, somehow thriving in the heart of the Rockies — it's a place that you have to see to believe. In this episode, we're digging into some fun facts that will show you why the Great Sand Dunes National Park is so incredible – including how it came to be and why it almost didn't survive. In this episode, we cover: How the tallest dunes in all of North America came to be The three main dunes: Star Dune, Hidden Dune, and High Dune The rare surge flow phenomenon that can send waves 12 to 20 inches high The naturally magnetic black sand called magnetite, and why a lightning storm can make your compass spin Why geologists still can't agree on how old these dunes actually are The Great Sand Dunes gold rush of the 1920s — and the local women's organization that saved the park from becoming a gravel pit How a water development threat decades later nearly destroyed the sand recycling system The 2004 legislation that made the park four times larger and solidified its protection Your task for today: Find the nonprofit partner for your favorite national park, follow them on social, and let us know who they are over on the @DirtInMyShoes Facebook or Instagram so we can support them too!

In the third hour of Dover and Cecil, the guys look at the Nuggets uneventful draft day. They traded away their first-round pick. Why? Was it the correct decision, or did they leave some talent on the table? Should they make a pick tonight or continue to acquire assets? Is the only question for the Broncos defense, who replaces Cooper? With the loss of John Franklin-Myers and possibly Jonathon Cooper, is pass rushing their biggest concern? With what we know right now, which roster is better positioned for a title run, the Nuggets or the Avs? What did the Rockies do last night? Is it our responsibility as fans to voice our frustration with the team to try and get a change?
In hour one of Dover and Cecil, the guys look at the Nuggets uneventful draft day. They traded away their first-round pick. Why? Was it the correct decision, or did they leave some talent on the table? Should they make a pick tonight or continue to acquire assets? Are the only questions for the Broncos offense JK’s health and their tight ends? Can Davis Webb unlock the tight end room in a way this team hasn’t seen in years? With what we know right now, which roster is better positioned for a title run, the Nuggets or the Avs? What did the Rockies do last night? Is it our responsibility as fans to voice our frustration with the team to try and get a change?
The Rockies were good…but they always sign. Such is the Gray Grapher's mantra when it comes to seeking autos from the Colorado crew. And Jack and Jeremy cash in with lots of graphs! Among the successes are a famous sabermetrician, a promising shortstop, and a former no hitter thrower…if Jack can overcome Gideon's Last Revenge. Watch out, especially if you're the Cable Guy, this week's Rain Delay Theater is closing in on you!

Will they attach a bad contract to their first-round pick in a trade to get off a player's contract like Zeke Nnaji or Christian Braun?

0:00 - Giannis is finally done dropping hints of wanting to leave or not wanting to leave or wanting to leave or not wanting to leave Milwaukee. He's taking his talents to South Beach. The Miami Heat are such a desireable destination for a bunch of different reasons. Always will be. It's hard to compete with that. 14:24 - Yesterday, Messi scored 2 more goals in the World Cup. And he missed a PK! He could've had back-to-back World Cup hat tricks! Team USA is off to a really strong start this Cup. They probably won't win the whole thing. That's still a very tall order. But if they win their first game of the knockout round, we'll be satisfied.32:09 - Oh, by the way...Benny Montgomery, who the Rockies selected 8th overall in the 2021 MLB Draft, announced his retirement from professional baseball at the age of 23.Oh, by the way...the PGA announced a completely revamped format starting in 2028. There will be 2 different tours happening at the same time with a relegation system in place. Oh, by the way...someone had to put a sticker over the word "Gillette" on every single seat in Gillette Stadium. Over 60,000 stickers placed on over 60,000 stadium seats because of FIFA's sponsorship rules.
In hour 2 of The Drive, Zach and Phil take a deep dive into the Jonathan Cooper situation. Zach shares some digging he did into the court documents and reveals Cooper was not breaking the law by contacting his girlfriend after the first arrest. The guys look into Harvey Steinberg's history of representing Broncos' players and members of the organization, and Zach shares why he now believes Cooper will play for the Broncos again.

The NBA draft is coming up. What are we hearing from the Nuggets? Could they be looking to move one of their starters to move up in the draft? The Rockies had a great weekend. How are they putting more foundational pieces into their team?

Good on him for persevering and winning his 2nd US Open. (The song I used in the show open was "The Sound of Silence." Hello darkness, my old friend. Today marks the beginning of the end.)16:46 - Vic suffered golf embarrassment of the highest order over the weekend. And maybe...just maybe...we should give more grace to athletes who choke in big moments.34:06 - Mike Sanford NAILED his Rockies 30 wins prediction. He predicted it DOWN TO THE DAY. Unreal. They won their 30th game on Saturday against the Pirates and MAN that was a strange finish.
The Pirates leave Colorado with a series loss that feels much bigger than two losses in the standings. Alex Stumpf breaks down the offensive struggles against left-handed pitching, costly defensive mistakes, bullpen concerns, and why this series could have long-term implications as Pittsburgh enters one of the toughest stretches of its schedule.

This week, Skyler and Evan discuss a crowded outfield that's about to get even more full with players coming off of the injured list. What decisions will the Colorado Rockies make with their outfielders? Meanwhile, the Rockies bullpen has been significantly... anti-clutch. Cardiac antics and blown games, especially in the ninth inning, have been costing the Rockies potentially winnable games. Finally, we congratulate Kyle Freeland on 1,000 career strikeouts and take a look at how CBA negotiations appear to be going. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Hour 1: What should the Pirates do if they have another disappointing offseason? Poni and Dom get into a heated argument over Paul Skenes' season. And why are people still mad about what Wyndham Clark did at Oakmont last year?
Was this past weekend's series against the Rockies the worst of the Pirates season? Poni wonders what should happen if the Pirates finish the year with another losing record. Would it finally be time for Pittsburgh to trade Paul Skenes?
In this episode, Brian welcomes Kyle back to the show for a raw, boots-on-the-ground conversation about Kyle's new venture, Backcountry Bigfoot, a YouTube channel built around the real-life experience of Sasquatch research in the wild. Rather than presenting a polished, overly produced version of the subject, Kyle explains that his goal is to bring viewers directly into the backcountry with him, capturing the everyday reality of expeditions, campfire conversations, tree breaks, footprints, strange sounds, unexpected moments, and the humor, exhaustion, awe, and uncertainty that come with searching for Sasquatch in some of the most active wilderness areas he has worked.Kyle shares how Backcountry Bigfoot came together, including Brian's role in helping him land on the name and shape the idea into something that could become more than just a channel. He talks about wanting to fully immerse himself in filming, editing, guiding, and documenting his research, even though it is all new territory for him. The heart of the project is authenticity: walking through the woods, talking through evidence as it is found, sitting around the fire after a long day, and giving viewers the kind of raw access that many people will never be able to experience in person.The conversation moves into Kyle's research area near Radium, where Brian previously spent time in the field and had experiences that left a lasting impression. They discuss the remote journey into the area, the powerful feeling of being truly away from civilization, and the kind of activity reported there, including rock throwing, wood knocks, strange vocalizations, “samurai chatter,” trailer movement, eerie night walks, and multiple alleged Sasquatch sightings. Kyle also recounts several personal and witnessed encounters, including his father seeing a Sasquatch near camp and a guest watching one cross a trail just as darkness settled in.A major part of the discussion focuses on the evidence found throughout the area, especially the overwhelming number of tree breaks and the unusual footprints preserved in the thick mossy substrate. Kyle explains how the moss reacts to normal human traffic compared with the deep impressions he believes were left by extremely heavy beings, some lasting for years because the moss is crushed, torn, and effectively killed in the shape of a foot. Brian reflects on how difficult it is to appreciate the scale and strangeness of the tree breaks without seeing them firsthand, especially when they appear high off the ground, methodically broken, and far beyond what an average person could reproduce.Brian and Kyle also revisit some of the most memorable locations from the expedition, including the area known as Pinner Playground, a strange section of forest filled with unusual stick formations, teepee-like structures, possible trackways, and an energy that both men describe as hard to explain. They also discuss the discovery of a massive structure involving enormous trees placed against an ancient tree deep in an area where machinery could not realistically access, raising more questions than answers about how it could have been made.Back Country Bigfoot YouTube ChannelEmail BrianJoin Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.Have you had a Bigfoot encounter, Sasquatch sighting, Dogman experience, or other cryptid or paranormal encounter?

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, please visit our Patreon. Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley discuss the backlash to MLB’s initial statement about the Giants’ objectors to Pride Night, the league’s subsequent expanded statement, and the facts about the policies and punishments (or the lack thereof) pertaining to uniform alterations. Then (37:10) they banter about the Blue Jays’ ballot dominance in early All-Star voting, the history of teams being overrepresented on All-Star rosters, the Mariners’ piggyback pitching plan, and Curtis Washington Jr. as the ultimate phantom ballplayer, answer emails (1:19:28) about where the next two-way player might come from and whether Pete Crow-Armstrong’s defensive value is underrated, and Stat Blast (1:31:56) about where franchise scoring records tend to be set, the biggest run differentials in games with equivalent times on base, days when one team outscored many other teams combined, Boston’s lack of late comebacks, and teams whose win totals did or didn’t match their WAR totals.
