This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, there’s a lot going on in Colorado and the world this week, so we’ve got two interviews AND a full episode for you! We weren’t at war with Iran when we recorded our last episode, but, surprise, we are now. Then, the Colorado GOP is once again trying to oust their party chair in the run-up to a midterm election in which they’re about to get absolutely crushed because some things never change. And if you’re polling below “undecided” in a survey, there’s a pretty good chance nobody is going to believe that you can somehow win that campaign without an overdose of motivated reasoning.

In our continuing quest to interview every Democratic candidate in a competitive primary for an important election in Colorado, we’ve got Shannon Bird on the show to tell us why she thinks she the best one to take on our 8th favorite member of Congress from colorado this November

But First! we’ve got a real life version of fan favorite segment “That’s Bullshit”; friend of the pod Rep. Joe Neguse joins us to talk about his absolutely wild takedown of DHS secretary Kristi Noem which was so humiliating for the Trump administration they basically fired her the moment Joe was done exposing some wild corruption allegations.
