We're also dropping in Ryan's interview with Tori Schumacer. Tori is the owner of Hazel, the S. Pearl community art bar bringing together the neighborhood, great drinks, bites, and coloring books.

October 31, 2023 - This halloween, we're launching our holiday campaign to fight food insecurity in Denver and we're inviting you to join us! Listen in to learn about a handful of local organizations you can volunteer at to lend a hand in making sure our community is fed this holiday season.

We, along with our friends at Kitcaster, have committed to donating 100 volunteer hours to food security related causes in Denver before the new year. We're spreading those hours across different organizations so that we can gain a dynamic understanding of the food-related challenges our community faces and their potential solutions. We invite you to join us!

Besides our feature, this week we're mourning Troy's Pinocchio costume's contest loss to a gory Cruella DeVille and Tom's loss of the New Jersey state high school improv competition to… a judge who was bad at counting. We're also pondering – how many folks does it take to make a chart topping song?

As always, we're sharing our favorite upcoming cultural events, art openings, concerts, and all of the things that make Denver the city we're proud to call home.
