This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, there’s an impeachment trial in the Senate — or is it OF the Senate (1:08), the New York Times tries to find Cory Gardner (13:33), we try to explain the greater meaning of the departure of a Denver Post conservative columnist (44:49), and we interview journalist Madeline Schmidt about her national reporting on Colorado’s unique abortion laws (22:10).
