Colorado Edition: Leveling The Playing Field

Jillian Geib shows off a scorecard at Coors Field to celebrate her new role as an official scorekeeper for the Colorado Rockies. She is the first woman in the franchise's history to hold this position.

Today on Colorado Edition: we learn how a new law might change the future of marijuana hospitality along the northern Front Range. Then, we speak to a new member of the Colorado Rockies franchise, and discover how she is making history. Next, we take a look a new true crime podcast out of the Denver Center for the Performing Arts. Plus, in honor of Pride Month, we revisit a story that takes us from Colorado’s history as a “hate state” to a leader in LGBTQ+ rights.

Today’s guests include BizWest reporter Tommy Wood; and scorekeeper for the Colorado Rockies, Jillian Geib. This episode features reporting from KUNC economy reporter Matt Bloom; arts and culture reporter Stacy Nick; and producer Alana Schreiber.
