Episode Details

Tina Peters is officially free, more than half a decade before the end of her full original sentence. You’ll hear her first public remarks, and reactions from Coloradans. Then, housing prices have long run amok. Can Congress come together and do something about it? Or will a division that runs even deeper than party lines derail it? Plus, an exhibit at the Fine Arts Center in Colorado Springs celebrates the freedom and expression of yard art.
