Can We Convince Denver That SLC Is Its Rival?
We picked a fight with City Cast Denver and we’re finally hashing it out. Can “mile high” Denver really eschew us when our mountains are closer? And if we are better, then why did we get more Crumbl Cookies and not a Union Station? Host Ali Vallarta is joined by lead producer Emily Means plus a couple of special guests — City Cast Denver’s host Bree Davies and producer Paul Karolyi — to determine once and for all whether we’re really rival cities or just regional siblings who like to argue.
