This week, national Republicans continue to attempt to warp the reality of the deadly attack on the capitol on January 6th by Trump supporters to somehow blame Nancy Pelosi; we determine if they’re the worst people on the planet, or in the galaxy; we are very mad about the fact that we’ll all have to start wearing masks everywhere again because a bunch of whiny crybabies are scared of needles like a bunch of third graders and pretend like they can’t breathe with a tiny piece of cloth over their dumb faces; we check in with the person who wins Worst Coloradan of the Year, every year, who also happens to be our 7th favorite congressperson from our great state; and we read you things we posted on the internet. Also, BEAVERS!

All-Star Alternate Universes
This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, we have an intern and so can you! Ian dusts off his old metaphysics and epistemology textbooks from college and we dive deep into the very nature of reality. Former Colorado Christian University adjunct instructor and one-time Rudy Guilliani seatmate, Jenna Ellis, is in the news again, and we discuss why she shouldn’t be. We pay a visit to our 6th and 7th favorite congressional representatives from Colorado and realize that perhaps we do live in alternate universes after all.

Mesa County Missteps (ft. Congressman Ed Perlmutter)
This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, both conspiracies and conspiracy-theorists are getting a lot dumber and a lot scarier, and for some reason, lots of Colorado right-wingers are knee deep in the crazy.
In a very related note, the Colorado Republican Party just cannot seem to get their poop in a group, adding to the list of infamous Colorado politics fails this week with an impressively off-key press conference, the first somewhat-legit challenger to Michael Bennet arrives, we discuss why the entire campaign will be about skinny little swords, fancy horses, and the Iraq war (if he’s actually nominated).
But first, we interview The Get More Smarter Podcast’s official member of congress, Ed Perlmutter. He tells us all the good things he’s bringing home for us from DC, and all of the no-things his Republican colleagues are bringing home to their districts. Hosts: Jason Bane | Ian Silverii
