"On the parents kids, it was a form of community. I'd never sensed in Los Angeles. You need, you just don't come together and rally like that. Usually, it's people, you know, from work and and off. But my gosh, there's so that's, that's when a heartwarming story. Denver, you know, and I met the lady that I currently live with. Now, we've been together for five years, bless her heart, I feel like, I've been struck twice by lightning two, lovely, ladies in my life. Oh, that's amazing. And it's so wonderful to be able to do something like that, to be able to give back to the community. And, and although it's just for, like, a brief unite or brief moment song, The fact that you did that, I'm sure that like resumes with those families even to this day. Well here, here's the, here's the epilogue of this. So Beverly was recruiting for a storm killing group. She's a retired educator and she said, we want to go into the end of the classroom and tell stories to the kids so that they can learn. That older folks are not just their teachers and their peers but older folks are nice people that can bring them a smile to. So we have this Storyteller group, we have twenty-five, Thirty people during the term. We go in once a month and we tell stories for about 30 minutes and every month we come back in a storyteller's are here the teachers loved at the kids love it. And of course, I get that wonderful warm feeling in my heart and so we should have several storytelling groups throughout the greater Denver area to do this in each one of the school districts. So, it was a start of something good. I'm grateful. That's awesome. I applaud you for doing that. That's Thursday. That's fantastic. So, speaking of happy moments and good times worse happiest, happy hour in Denver. I don't think you can go wrong. Going to any one of the craft breweries, them all have new beers, they all have happy hours. I would just say go find a Craft brewery and get there between, you know, four and six and have yourself a good. A good time, it's very congenial and you can do the beer, crawl and find a new one. You won't run out. Yeah. For sure. That's why. That's one thing I love about like those beer Trails is that way, you know maybe you don't like the beers at this one, you know. Maybe it's like I'm not a big fruity beer type of person, right? Some of them have a lot of fruit. He's and they get a little weird, right? So you don't like it just go on to the next one and eventually you'll find one that you really like. And you may not go onto anymore, you may just hang out at that one and spend the rest of the afternoon. At that one spot and sometimes the fruity beer will surprise you. You know, they'll put a a bunch of ingredients in New Jersey. They'll tweak over the spikes. You go. Well, they that was refreshing. I would have never tried. Yeah, to your point like sometimes, you know, you're on the tour. Anyways, you might as well just try it anyways. And say you like it and if you don't handle the twin your friends, I'm sure they will, you know, so one of the things I always do whenever I travel is I check out the local pizza. So, what's the best place for pepperoni, pizza in Denver? So I gotta tell you, my favorite place is in Greenwood Village so in Greenwood Village part of the Denver Tech Center for the business side, Greenwood Village for the living side. There's a place called Z Pizza Republica, and if you ever had a pizza from Italy, you realize that it is flat and it is crisp and it is met with fresh ingredients. I have been to a lot of pizza shops here in Denver. I've eaten a lot of Pizza in my life. My ability will attest but that reminded me of the original name is pizza hand-churned. Oh, and flipped everything was tasty. The pepperoni was not something you bought in a supermarket. This was hanging on Rogers wall. I mean the most delicious and then if you're really nice, you ask him to put a little truffle oil on it. Oh yeah. You're you're making my mouth water there. You know. So there you don't feel like I'm at the get on the flight right now and then go check it out. Now, I know that, you know, you and I we met through a group of travel massive and so it's it's a people that know so much about travel and I know that you have your travel business as well. We'll talk about that in a minute. So I know based on all that you have just so many different travel tips that you can offer. What's one of your best travel tips. Here's what I tell everybody make reservations not excuses, do it. We tend to want to help other people and we work our tails off, doing what we do in our careers, when it comes time to giving ourselves a reward, we tend not to do that. And so, you know, I've got a kid that needs a graduation. I've got somebody that needs help here. I'm going to be doing this project and when you say to yourself, well, when are you going to take that bucket list trip? Oh, I don't have time. I've got too many other projects and I say, you know, the clock's tickin. So that's the thing is, everybody knows how to make the excuse, but make the reservations, I don't care. Whether it's go to towns north of where you live, but get away from your page streets, your normal routine and being a different place and the farther out you go obviously the the different. It becomes the minute you go to a place that has a foreign language Evil Dead. Mexico, or Canada. I mean it's amazing when you go to Canada and everything's have French, my whole life, and Southern California, everything was half, Spanish, that was a foreign language experience. It was Grand off. You don't have to go all over the world but certainly, as we are aging, we start to realize things start to hurt and, you know, the body starts to tell us. We're not able to be, you know, jumping up and down and doing all the exports and all that. So if you got a bucket list of the burning in your heart planet, do it, put some money down and pay yourself back for all that hard work in your life. So that's a long trip. The other thing I got to say is, if you haven't looked at your passport recently, you want to make sure that your passports up-to-date, what people don't know. Is there still a large backlog? And usually, there is a backlog for renewing or issuing passports and I've seen it take as long as four months, so if you don't want to pay ridiculous. Was Rush fees or have a third party, walk it in and hand stamp it and you'll pay double triple for that. Look at your passport now and see when does it expire? Because almost everywhere in the world that passport has got to have at least six months left on it from the day, you're planning to come back home. If not, they have the right to refuse, you entry into their country off. So,.

"Resorts that you want up in the Rocky Mountains. So fantastic. So let's assume that we're flying into the DIA once we arrived there and we want to get down to the downtown area of Denver, do we rent a car? Do we take public transportation. Like how do we get around from the airport to the city? And then once we arrived there. We have this wonderful new, a train. The A train terminal actually is inside the airport. So from the airport you can go to the A train and it will take you all the way through downtown and log. You all had the Central Station, which is our recently revitalized Trane Centre. And in the train Center. We have a brand new hotel and we have restaurants, and, and a beer hall and coffee shops, and, and we have bookstores. It's a great renovated. Building gorgeous architecture inside gorgeous, architecture outside and across the street is the Oxford Hotel, which is very classic of Denver renting, a car. All the major agencies are there, you don't need a car. If all she business is going to be in the city center, or if all your business is going to be, when you're going skiing because when you go to Aspen, there's a shuttle bus, that takes you around to all the different slopes, so young. You don't really need a car, unless you feel you want to be more in control of your time. We also have Uber and Lyft. We've got a good taxi system here. Everybody seems to respect a dog. Body else. There's plenty of off-campus long-term parking at the airport or short-term parking, right by the terminal. I usually take an Uber myself either because I figure by the time I would have the hassle parking and pay for parking. I just get dropped off and got picked up in a way, I go. So that's my way of flying in and out of the city and my car sits in my garage that makes life certainly so much easier. So, say we take, you know, the A train into downtown and things of that nature from there were should we plan on on staying as far as booking a hotel? Should we say that that downtown Porter or is there someplace else that we should look at? So, I would say that the downtown Corridor for your first time in Denver, is a great central place to be. There are things that you should be seeing due to the north, the West, the south east. If you go west and the lovely part about Denver is, if you see mountains, that's the West. So you always have your compass orientation and wage. 14000 foot mountains. The mountains are always visible. Unless it's raining. We hardly ever have cloud cover or small gear? So you can always tell what Foundation you are. So the city center has got the zoo. It's got the main library. It's got the art museum. It's got the Museum of Natural History. We have golf courses. We've got restaurants, we've got movie theaters. We have the Denver Center for the Arts has 5 theater. Venues everything. I'm a little in the round theater to. We have our own opera house. We have our own musical theater performance venue and we have just so many wonderful classic historic buildings to if you remember the Unsinkable Molly Brown. Well Molly Brown actually was a survivor of the sinking of the Titanic song. And her husband built the Brown Palace. And so, the Brown Palace Hotel is a triangular hotels in downtown. It's so classical you go in and it's beautifully. Carpeted wage, wonderful, brass, fixtures and Hardwoods everywhere. It actually has a tee time with atti service very much. Like, if you've ever been to Vancouver, but very classic bought a very elegant. We have a Four Seasons, we've got oh my gosh, you name it. We've got it. We have a JW Marriott. We have a four seasons of the high end at the low end. We have a lot of everything. So you could stay here in town, I would think easily. From $75 to $1,000 a night depending on your taste much of downtown is walkable. We do have a light rail system that will get you to different places. There are several communities that we have, we have the Denver Tech Center. We've got Cherry Creek. We have going North Palm. Lakewood all of these are communities that you can go and visit. I wouldn't think you'd do that on your first visit here. You probably want to just focus on downtown. Oh, we also have a wonderful basketball arena. We also have a fabulous, very it's new but it's classically. Designed baseball stadium. And of course you might have heard that we have Mile High Stadium for this Broncos, football team, you might have heard of. And so if you love sports, we've got it all. And if you're into amateur sports, we have a whole bunch of soccer fields and Tennis Courts, found a concert venue just to the north of downtown and we are also one of the few cities in the United States that has a professional rugby league in Glendale, which is just south of downtown. And so there is a Rugby field of the ladies where the national champions last year. The men were national champions two years. Or so, very good quality rugby. If you're into that sport, hasn't got the same traction As baseball or football yet, but you know, those that are into rugby realize, just the bumps on your shins are Badges of Honor earlier. You mentioned that your friend actually recommend, you come out probably seeing that sound like it was like wintertime and from understand like, Denver does not have as bad of a winter as you might suspect, right? I guess all the snow is primarily up in the mountains and based on the elevation of Denver and just the conditions, they may get a little chilly but it's not your three feet of snow. Like you, like you might think. Well, the beauty about how Denver was created, it's, it's the Confluence between the North Platte River and the Colorado River and the Cherry Creek. And all of those things came together, which is always how Town's got started in the old old west, but it's just east of the Foothills log. Rocky Mountains. And what does that mean? I mentioned, we have fourteen thousand foot mountains here, right? So, all the weather, blows up and shoots everything really high. And by the time, the precipitation normally hits and touches down. It's in the Eastern Plains, which is why we grow all of our fruits and vegetables and our corn and whatever we grow on the Eastern Plains. We used to be part of the package is territory and all that flat land that used to be part of Kansas. We have a bit of it and that's east of us in the Eastern Plains. And so the central part of Denver what is subject to as massive swings of temperature. And so the thing I tell people is be prepared to wear layered close. So this is true. I got up one day and it was a hundred degrees and the next day it was 35.

"Let's get to the phone lines. 8554058255 start with Brian in the Denver Tech Center. You're on the Dan capitalist show. Welcome, Brian. Hey, thanks for taking my call. Um, Dan, Sure. Um, as a former U. S Army recruiter, I can tell you why we cannot accept people who are of a certain age. Um, now I was recruited from 2000 and 2012 pretty much in the thick of Afghanistan and Iraq. Um, And at that time the army had raised her age from 32 to 40. Maximum. Listen age, right, Um So, but the reason why they captured at 40 is so that they could have the opportunity retired by the time they were 60. Yes, I guess I guarantee you. I Week. 51 years old Right now, I feel much more healthier than my dad did at 51 years old. Oh, man, you know what do you think you are at 51? What do you think you really are? Oh, man, compared to my dad. I'm probably like 30 something No, no, compared to the number compared to your age. What are you? I mean, I could still serve. Well, that's my point, right? And and how many guys do you know? Like you? I'm not saying you should go serve you served this country. I'm talking about the rest of us. You know the rest of us who have not served or maybe some guys who have served. But I'm just saying there are so many guys now in their fifties and sixties who Could probably pass the physical requirements. Yes. Well, well, let me let me let me let me caveat that Probably not, because even at 51, I have certain health issues that maybe would preclude me from serving. Um, but I could still do it like they would preclude me from serving based on current regulations, right, But let's talk about that for a second. Brian, Let's talk about that, because that's nonsense, Right? I mean, when we talk about these kind of arbitrary disqualifiers That, you know, because you've actually served that probably would not as a practical matter prevent you from doing the job. Is there any reason why somebody should be disqualified? Just because they can't check that the right side of that box? Well, let me ask you. Well, we say this If I joined today as a brand new private Joined today. I couldn't serve until I was 71 get my retirement, right? And that's that's the reason why they cut it off at that that retirement age. I think it's tied to some sort of law. Right. But that can be changed. Like all I'm talking about is I think there are a bunch of guys and you're a good example, though. I mean, you've already done your duty. They're a bunch of guys who are physically fit enough to serve. You know, they The whole retirement thing isn't going to matter to them because they probably already are set from what else they've done in their lives. And they've also got you know the benefit what they lose in the physical edge on He's amazing. You know, young guys and girls you know they can make up for with wisdom and experience, so why not have them risking their lives and dying in combat? And that's my other. My other point, I was going to bring up Um, it's very conceivable kid joins the Army at age 18. By the time he's 21, it could be a sergeant. Mhm. Three years time. It took me three years to make Sergeant Wow. It sounds quick. So now if I was a sergeant with a 51 year old private who doesn't want to listen to me? Because he thinks, um I don't know what I'm talking about, because I don't have the life experience that he has That can really cause a lot of problems. You think that's going to be the case, though? I mean with the kind of people who would be interesting and serving to begin with, because I think it would be the opposite. I mean, I have personally run into the situation where I was superior to someone who was, you know, 10 years older than me? Yes. And it was a constant battle, okay? Can't you just weed those knuckleheads out? Because I'm thinking of, you know, I know so Yeah, yeah. Well, you don't know that upfront. You can't just leave them out. You list them And then if they just don't lift, they get bad performance ratings. Then they might get out. And it may not get out. A bad performance rating won't put you out of the Army. Yeah, because I am thinking that the vast majority of people saying this 50 to 65 age group would qualify physically, I'm not talking about giving him a break that the vast majority of those folks would be so well motivated. That and would probably be experienced in life and also having you know somebody higher in the corporate structure than them. They had to answer to who was younger than them. But they would be so well motivated to serve their country and do their duty that there'd be less of that high school high jinks kind of stuff. So you're younger than me. I'm not going to listen to your absolutely correct. You're absolutely correct. The older Individuals. To have priority sown their wild oats. Coming into the army. Would be less of a troublesome private they would be, and so I'll give you that. Um, they're more mature, You know? I mean, they've you know they they're not out. You know, they're like, okay. I passed the bar scene. You know? Yeah. You know, I'm probably married with kids, and I probably settled down. Um, but, you know, so, so I guess there are pros and cons to that. And Brian. One thing I want to make clear. I'm not suggesting at all that these older guys should be taking the place of or stepping in front of any of these younger people. These wonderful younger people who want to serve they shouldn't be taken their promotions. They shouldn't be taking their opportunities. I'm just saying that they should be allowed to serve. If they can meet all the same physical tests. They should be allowed to serve in whatever capacity supplements that with without in any way, interrupting. You know the opportunity for for young soldiers. It just seems crazy to me that the average age of people dying in combat is going way down in America, and you've got all these older people who would who would serve who have lived much of their life for it. Right And let me just give you one last point, Dan, and this has nothing to with age. But this has to do it. The political side of things. Okay. When I read I retired in 2014. I'd be tired because I thought for sure Hillary wouldn't get elected. If I knew Donald Trump was going to get elected, and that would be the current administration. I would have stayed longer. Wow, right now under the current administration. If I was given the opportunity to go back, I would not under the current administration. Why Because, like I really don't think that since Obama and Biden as Obama underling, they don't they do not respect the military. They do not. Right. They do things purely on a political motivation. Yeah. And under the current administration under its second trump term, If I had given the opportunity go back, I would really consider it. No Good point Administration. I would not consider it. Yeah, Another priority is obviously not readiness, fighting and winning. You know, it's wokeness. So I get it. But, hey, Brian, Thank you for your service, man in great to have your expertise on this one. Thank you, Dan. Thank you. Take care. 8554058255. Hey, we're doing kind of 1/4 of July. All American theme and debt means getting back to one of my favorite ideas, which is Just increasing the enlistment age, letting fully qualified older guys serve. And what do you think of that? 8554058255 not our only topic by the way. Stephen and Long mantra on the Dan capitalist show. Welcome. Hey, Stephen. Okay. Okay, Stevens, a quiet sort, but, uh, we'll get back to Stephen after the break. I also want to hear from you on best firework shows in Colorado. I've got my clear number one. Not the third in a lot of great ones. But I've got my clear number one. And I'll pass along a a little known secret when it comes to this great firework show and then also want to talk about UFOs. And how does it fit into this weekend? I'll explain. What do you believe? 8554058255 on the day in capital Show 2021 is the 25th anniversary of the Telecommunications Act of 1996, the last comprehensive update to Internet regulation..
