I was skeptical walking into BearLeek. It’s in RiNo, which always feels too cool for me. Music was blaring when my dinner companion and I descended a severe staircase into this grotto of a restaurant.

A dimly-lit gem! Superb staff and the plates we shared were as beautiful as they were scrumptious

"There may be a book on the shelf that doesn't speak to you. You move on and find something else."

For Banned Books Week, I spoke with Denver's new city librarian. We discussed video games as literacy, DPL's hiring freeze, and a unionization effort:

Would he welcome troops to the largest city in his district — Pueblo?

Is the GOP at war with Americans it disagrees with?

Have federal employees been treated with dignity?

Some of my questions for Rep. Jeff Hurd (R-Grand Junction) who also discusses the shutdown and health insurance:
