Dan Caplis

Roshini Rajkumar - a crisis strategist, licensed attorney, and host of The Crisis Files podcast - offers her C-suite advising experience on President Biden's choice to taunt Donald Trump in a highly edited video challenging the former President to debate him. She also outlines why Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) was right in criticizing Biden's decision to allow political prosecutions of Trump to move forward without offering up a pardon from his office as President. Jimmy Sengenberger fills in for Dan once again.

Jimmy Sengenberger fills in once again for Dan, and provides an update on more positive developments for Donald Trump in the Manhattan trial - as the former President's attorneys tear into the inconsistencies and lies of star witness Michael Cohen.

Former colleagues at a previous Denver radio station stop in their careers, Jimmy Sengenberger and Steffan Tubbs reunite on The Dan Caplis Show to preview Steffan's in-depth film project 'Devastated,' on the dangers of fetanyl addiction in Colorado and nationwide, premiering at a theater in Greeley on Wednesday night. Also, Jimmy gets an unexpected call from an old friend to close out the show.

It's on: Joe Biden and Donald Trump have agreed to at least two debates, mostly on the current President's terms and turf. The first will take place on CNN, moderated by Jake Tapper and Dana Bash, televised Thursday, June 27 at 9pm ET. The second will be hosted by ABC on Tuesday, September 10. One of the stipulations from the Biden camp is no live studio audience, but might that setting actually help Trump stay under control and on message? Jimmy Sengenberger fills in for Dan today.

Jon Caldara comments on the effective combination of humor and persuasion used by Jerry Seinfeld giving the keynote address at Duke University's commencement, including the golden line 'we are embarrassed of the things we should be proud of, and proud of the things we should be embarrassed about.' It's gold, pure gold, Jerry!

Jon Caldara is once again in for Dan and welcomes in his colleague from the Independence Institute, Director of Policy Jake Fogelman, on why Governor Jared Polis is squarely responsible for scheduled gasoline price hikes at the pump due to prohibitive fees and taxes on the production and sale of fossil fuels.

Kelly reveals that she never watched the iconic sitcom 'Seinfeld' in the 1990s, leading to audible gasps and protestations from both Jon and Ryan. Not that there's anything wrong with that... well, maybe there IS something wrong with that. Also, on a more serious note, several Duke graduates boycott Jerry Seinfeld delivering the commencement address in Durham, presumably because he is Jewish. Why is there such open anti-Semitism running rampant on America's college campuses these days? I mean, really, what's the deal with THAT?

Jon Caldara is in for Dan again, and laments being hit with the trifecta of emptying his bank account for retirement - divorce, a disabled child, and a daughter committed to a diva lifestyle. He also debates a caller on the merits of the classified documents case against Trump that was suspended indefinitely by Judge Aileen Cannon and similar (but not alike) cases for Joe Biden and Mike Pence.

The conversation gets heated - and steamy? - as Jon Caldara advocates the liberatarian position on legalizing prostitution, while a veteran law enforcement officer calls in and cautions against it because of the environment most women encounter in entering the sex worker world.

Jon Caldara is in for Dan and reflects on the time he saw the Northern Lights at Denali National Park in Alaska, with most of the Eastern United States being able to see them tonight - clear down to Alabama. Also, he opens the discussion on whether prostitution should be legalized in America outside of Nevada, where it is currently permitted and regulated.

Jon Caldara (in for Dan) explains how difficult it is to get issue proposals before voters on the ballot, the time and resources it requires, and why it's so important for organizations like his Independence Institute to do the hard work that gets it done.

Rep. Rose Pugliese (R-14, El Paso), Colorado House minority leader, joins Jon Caldara (in for Dan) to recap the legislative session that ended on Wednesday, and what Coloradans can take away from the Democratic majority attempts to ram through extreme legislation for Governor Jared Polis to sign into law.

Nothing but good news on the Trump legal front, as the lawfare enlisted by President Biden and his acolytes continues to fall by the wayside. Judge Aileen Cannon has postponed the classified documents case in Florida indefinitely, after prosecutor Jack Smith acknowledged his team had mishandled important evidence during their raid of Mar-a-Lago. Also, even mainstream leftist media outlets are calling the Stormy Daniels testimony in the Manhattan campaign financing case a disaster fro Alvin Bragg's prosecution. With an appeals court taking up whether district attorney Fani Willis should stay on the election conspiracy case in Georgia, the Manhattan case is now all that remains in the relentless lawfare against Trump which will make it to trial before Election Day. Also, Kristi Burton-Brown joins the program on behalf of Advance Colorado to tout two ballot proposals that will give residents true property tax relief - and far more than we're getting from the compromise hammered out in the Colorado General Assembly.

In a stunning, but perhaps not shocking, development - illegal immigrants in an encampment on private property have a list of 13 demands before they'll accept accommodations in a shelter intended for their use. Should their audacity be greeted with what Judge Smails tells his nephew Spaulding in 'Caddyshack' - 'you'll get nothing and like it!'?

On this day, five years ago, 18-year-old Kendrick Castillo sacrificed his life to defend and save the lives of his fellow classmates from a school shooter at the STEM school in Highlands Ranch, Colorado. His father John shares his heartbreaking account of that day, and heartwarming story of the good that Kendrick brought to the world and inspired us to emulate in our own lives. Also, The Babylon Bee is pitch perfect once again with its hilarious rendition of what a 'Woke Jesus' might say to his far left disciples and followers.

Judge Juan Merchan allows Stormy Daniels to wade into salacious details regarding her alleged affair with Donald Trump, as the Manhattan trial serves its purpose in embarrassing the former President and attempting to raise the dander of the jury against him. On a better note for Trump, federal judge Aileen Cannon delays the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case after revelations that prosecutor Jack Smith potentially tampered with evidence used to incriminate the President.

Still stunned by Denver police chief Ron Thomas's refusal to remove pro-Hamas encampments from the Auraria campus - at their request - Dan collaborates with listeners to devise a plan to join the party, while bringing our own 'entertainment' for the anti-Semites to 'enjoy.'

Taylor Rhodes, executive director for Rocky Mountain Gun Owners of Colorado, celebrates the state Senate effectively nuking the assault weapons ban bill in committee, before it could go to Governor Jared Polis's desk for his signature. Rep. Lisa Frizell (R-45, Douglas) joins Dan to discuss the long-anticipated property tax relief bill, finally being hammered out after Democrats tried to raid TABOR refunds to offset property tax increases - all in the wake of the voters' repeal of the Gallagher Amendment in 2020.

Despite requests from administrators at Denver's Auraria campus, city police chief Ron Thomas declines to provide law enforcement assistance in sweeping pro-Hamas protest encampments off the grounds. Dan suspects the decision was a political one handed down by Mayor Mike Johnston, but that doesn't absolve Chief Thomas from abdicating his duty to protect and serve other students at risk on campus.
