Peter Boyles Show Podcast

The Peter Boyles Show August 29, 2026 HOUR 4: Hour 4 continues the debate over Colorado’s governor’s race, with callers weighing Victor Marx, Greg Lopez and the Republican Party’s direction, while Peter Boyles questions whether Colorado conservatives are being forced into an impossible choice in November.

The conversation then turns to privacy and government surveillance, with callers discussing the Fourth Amendment, Flock and other cameras, drones, digital tracking, medical records, cell phones, facial recognition and just how much the government and technology companies can know about ordinary Americans—including whether the idea of a truly private life is already gone.

The Peter Boyles Show August 29, 2026 HOUR 3: Peter Boyles and callers take on Colorado’s chaotic governor’s race, debating whether Republicans can support Victor Marx despite concerns about his candidacy, what Greg Lopez’s role means for the election, and whether a Phil Weiser victory would give Democrats unchecked power in Colorado.

The hour also dives into Denver politics and the debate over Israel, Zionism, socialism and the positions of candidates including Melat Kiros, before returning to the growing loss of privacy: from government and corporate surveillance to technology, guns and whether Americans truly have any private life left.

The Peter Boyles Show August 29, 2026 HOUR 2: Peter Boyles digs into the Colorado governor’s race with longtime Republican strategist Dick Wadhams, focusing on Victor Marx, Greg Lopez and Phil Weiser—and the growing debate over whether Republicans should support Marx, vote for Lopez as a repudiation of the GOP nominee, or turn to a Libertarian candidate.

The conversation then turns sharply to privacy and surveillance, with callers weighing in on Flock cameras, Halo cameras, automated license-plate readers, facial recognition, data collection, smartphones and health-tracking devices, the Fourth Amendment, the Patriot Act, Palantir and the idea that technology designed for security can also be used against innocent people.

The Peter Boyles Show August 29, 2026 HOUR 1: Do you still have a private life? Peter Boyles and Jon Caldara take a deep dive into the growing surveillance state—from Flock cameras and license-plate tracking to facial recognition, smartphones and the government buying personal data from private companies. The conversation gets uncomfortable as they ask whether Americans have voluntarily surrendered their privacy in exchange for convenience and safety—and whether we're already living in a surveillance state.

Peter also takes on the Colorado governor's race, asking whether Victor Marx is the only viable Republican alternative to Phil Weiser, what role Greg Lopez is playing, and why a Republican candidate skipped a major debate. Callers weigh in with very different views on the candidates, Colorado's direction, and whether it's time to stay and fight or leave the state.

The Peter Boyles Show -Aug 22, 2026 - Hr. 3: Peter Boyles examines the rise of Democratic Socialism in America and debates why young voters appear increasingly attracted to it, while callers compare today's political climate with earlier periods of American history and debate capitalism versus socialism.

The hour also dives into the controversy surrounding Colorado Republican gubernatorial nominee Victor Marx and his claims of encountering demons and supernatural phenomena, prompting a larger discussion about the direction of the Colorado Republican Party and the GOP primary. A caller delivers the hour's most startling story, describing an alleged fentanyl exposure while interrupting a robbery in the South Metro area and the lengthy hospitalization that followed. (We have reached out to Douglas County Sheriff's Office for comment, we have received no confirmation as to the accuracy of the callers' claims at this time)

Other topics include Trump and accusations that he is acting like a dictator, Greg Lopez's potential role as a spoiler, Diana DeGette's political future, and the frightening scenario of nuclear war and Colorado's potential vulnerability.

The Peter Boyles Show -Aug 22, 2026 - Hr. 2: Peter Boyles examines the growing appeal of Democratic Socialism, particularly among younger Americans facing soaring costs and an economy where traditional milestones like homeownership and the value of a college degree can feel increasingly out of reach. Peter and callers debate capitalism versus socialism and whether Democratic Socialists could make significant gains in November.

The conversation then turns to Colorado GOP gubernatorial nominee Victor Marx and reports that he claims to have battled reptilian demons, sparking a broader debate over the direction of the Colorado Republican Party, the influence of evangelical politics, and whether the GOP is hurting its own chances at the ballot box.

The hour also features the strange story of the so-called “Castle Rock bag lady,” with Lee, a man who says he has actually seen her, joining Peter in the studio to discuss the mystery.

The Peter Boyles Show -Aug 22, 2026 - Hr. 1: Peter Boyles examines the growing appeal of socialism in America and asks a bigger question: What is driving people toward it? The conversation begins close to home with Karen and Robert Parker of Parker Arms in Wheat Ridge.

After more than two decades in the firearms and gunsmithing business, Robert says rising costs, additional paperwork and new Colorado regulations have made continuing the business financially unsustainable. Parker Arms is liquidating its assets, and the Colorado-native couple says they are preparing for a new chapter outside the state.

Their story becomes the jumping-off point for a much larger discussion about government power, capitalism, socialism and America's changing political landscape. Peter examines the recent success of candidates associated with the Democratic Socialists of America and questions whether the movement represents a passing political moment or the beginning of something much larger.

The phone lines light up as callers challenge Peter from different directions. One caller argues that Americans are increasingly attracted to socialism because many no longer believe capitalism is delivering the American Dream. Peter counters with his defense of free markets and his concerns about government-planned economies.

Also in the hour: Colorado politics, private property, Marxism, the DSA's electoral momentum, the future of the Republican Party and what growing economic frustration could mean at the ballot box.

The Peter Boyles August 15, 2026 HOUR 4: Peter Boyles sits down with former Congressman Tom Tancredo for an extraordinary conversation about faith, politics and the unexpected twists that shaped his life. 

Tancredo tells the never-before-heard-on-radio story of how a sermon about persecuted Christians in Sudan ultimately led him into Congress, into war-torn Sudan with Senator Sam Brownback, and eventually to writing the Sudan Peace Act. He also shares remarkable stories from his political career involving Ronald Reagan, Frida Poundstone, Colorado Republicans and a furious confrontation with Karl Rove over immigration and the Bush White House.

The hour closes with Tancredo taking aim at Colorado's education system, questioning claims that the state ranks No. 1 nationally and arguing that school choice and charter schools are doing more to improve education than the traditional public-school system.

The conversation then turns to the mysterious "Bag Lady of Castle Rock," with callers sharing firsthand encounters and confirming that the bizarre local legend is very real, before Peter and Tom revisit the history of Denver's Columbus Day Parade and the controversy surrounding the American Indian Movement.
