It’s unfortunate, because in concept, this is a fantastic podcast. Local stories, topical discussions, and helpful perspective. If only it had another host! Bree is frustratingly uneducated on essential definitions, topics, and often takes an uninformed and irresponsible, biased angle. I would...Read full review »

There are very few podcasts where I can get daily news about Denver, so I want to like this, but host Bree Davies makes that pretty difficult. She is constantly giving “hot takes” that really have no basis - like that an article about how much white claw is consumed at red rocks is sexist (????)....Read full review »

I love this podcast... Denver NEEDS it. I tell everyone to listen to it. Its truly a great way to feel more connected to the city and what's going on around town. I'm a little tired of the filler content AKA an excessive amount of the "Top 5 burritos" etc episodes. How about...Read full review »

I wish I could like this podcast but the commentary is always really negative. The hosts scoff and eye roll anything new. And they really want you to know that they really don’t like new apartments in Denver. Denver is a fun place and this podcast doesn’t reflect that.

This show has great vibes for the morning, while also going into a lot of great topics. I live in the suburbs, so some stories just aren’t that interesting to me, but I love the hosts so much that I listen anyway.

I really enjoy this show and it makes me feel connected to the city i have grown to love and call home. Sometimes i wish the episodes were a little longer and more in depth but overall really enjoy it. It has gotten me to try new cultural experiences and pay more attention to the issues our city...Read full review »

2023 Nov 3 - It is ALWAYS wrong to judge people based on their gender. It is ALWAYS wrong to judge people based on their skin color. Shame on this podcast for broadcasting this offensive, sexist, racist material.

#1 pet peeve of podcasting: sick hosts! It sounds gross hearing your congestion, plus listeners are just feeling bad that you’re working through that. Take a day off and practice some self care, dammit! (…also, I hope the hosts feel that they CAN take a day off when sick) I don’t see the need...Read full review »

I used to be a regular listener of this podcast. I quite enjoyed it at one point. However, as of late it has become increasingly difficult to listen to the one-sided, uber progressive slant on the serious issues our city our facing. The main host will often say things like she is not trying to be...Read full review »

I was excited for a local daily update. I have listened since it launched but it has gotten really challenging. The main host, Bree, opines and seems disconnected. It is better to just check in on casually and skip Bree sections.
Jason.Koza via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/11/23
I’ve had high hopes for this show for a while. Their Mayoral Madness series was great, and I thought they were finally turning the corner from being an ultra-left political show. However, they’re back to their old ways and this show is really challenging to listen to. They only invite progressive...Read full review »

I’ve been a daily listener of the show for the past couple years, and it truly has made me feel more connected to this city. That said, I’ve found the show increasingly difficult to listen to, and I found it interesting that other non-five star reviews revealed the same sentiments as my own. The...Read full review »

I stayed with this podcast for two years because I loved the general concept - local news, happenings and interviews. However, many times at least one of the hosts shows up completely unprepared with little research to point to on the given topic. It’s largely just opinion. I’m hoping it improves...Read full review »
EliseHoo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/18/23
Initially this podcast was really helpful by letting the community know of upcoming events and current news. Over the last year it has grown into a partisan chat between likeminded people that cover single sides of stories. Though it is nice to hear Patty from Westword, she is the only one that...Read full review »

This podcast is rad. As a long time Colorado living human, but spending 17 years in the mountains and three now in the city, it’s all the things I want to know, need to know, and just rad stuff. Before living here, I would come visit and always loved the city. The episodes are thought provoking...Read full review »
Jillschlad via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/22/23
When Bree isn’t involved the show is often very good. But Bree needs to center herself in EVERY conversation on the show, especially to show how progressive she is. But God forbid she actually have to stand at a bus stop! What could get you out of your car, Bree? Maybe all the “values” you...Read full review »

As a Colorado native, I’m always wary of this kind of media. However, City Cast Denver does a remarkable job staying true to the Mile High’s cultural history while spotlighting new voices, ideas, spaces, and events with finesse and ease. I’m especially fond of episodes that take on non-Colorado...Read full review »
BlakeyPfeel via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/26/23
I appreciate the news this podcast brings in a liberal environment. It’s not your fault the politicians who are talking here don’t have adequate solutions. An idea for asking the questions in hitting the elections and homelessness issues, some of the candidate ideas befuddle me. Yes, more...Read full review »

I can’t stand this show anymore, Bree is annoying, Paul is…..Apple probably won’t publish this review if I say want I want to say. Denver isn’t very diverse obviously but good god the host needs to be, having Bree play like she truly knows Mexican culture is laughable. Paul is a clueless white...Read full review »
@Akiratech via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/23/23
This is a great podcast for those who want to understand Denver, it’s history, politics, cultural scene, dining and much more. Bree Davies is a personable host with deep ties to the city. They frequently have long time Denverites on the show who provide great insight. Really enjoyed Cherry...Read full review »

The podcast and newsletter are incredible. Easily my favorite Denver journalism. Keep it up!!
J'cob via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/05/23
After having listened to CC programs for other communities, I wonder why the execs continue to let the Denver show flounder with the now boring topics and tired groaning host and the predictable guest hosts. These are all journalists I guess but they just express opinions and highlight guests...Read full review »

There are some truly great episodes. But I kind of dread every episode not knowing what I’m getting myself into. Occasionally you learn something really cool. Paul’s enthusiasm and commentary is the best and more of his joy would make the city better and it certainly makes the show better. Erin...Read full review »
jcohen via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/24/23
This podcast could be great but is kinda sad and pathetic. Paul is a terrible host and essentially touts being an apathetic racist. Bree is loves to talk about diversity when it benefits her, but is completely performative with her commentary. She contradicts herself often and is the type of...Read full review »

People of color and their perspective on Denver is needed.
l.cityy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/02/23
I like this podcast but the editorializing holds it back from being great. This host Brie definitely knows a ton and cares about Denver but inserts her opinion about literally everything and monopolizes conversations when there are round tables. Some tweaks to the approach I think would be...Read full review »

I’m pretty new to Denver, and I really appreciate getting an insider perspective on local issues, where to eat, and even where to camp. I really like how you seek out differing opinions too. As someone who also works on a daily podcast, I know it’s a grind and I appreciate the work you all are...Read full review »

Even when my husband and I disagree with the producer’s/host’s opinions we love the show. The upbeat yet conscious tone is a great guide to Denver, making national trends locally relevant. It has a local news vibe where I feel as though I can argue with statements as though made by a contrarian...Read full review »

Such a huge fan of the crew and excited to learn more about the city everyday!!! Love the OG CC Denver and am so proud of how much the show has grown, experimented and taught everyone!!

Makes me love my city even more
Trimmy trayho via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/21/22
It’s small publications like this that are single-handedly re-vitalizing truly local news! This podcast is helping me get back in touch with local policial issues again and gives me a sense of my city’s culture in a way I haven’t felt from other publications. National news can feel far away and...Read full review »
Madeline LaMee via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/21/22
This podcast is so well produced and you can really tell they put so much thought and love into every episode. Bree is a star host! She is so mindful and has the best questions. Also the bloopers are the best!
(insert sad emoji) via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/20/22
Fun
Bree is such an engaging host. I love her thoughtful questions, and she clearly puts her guests at ease. Amazing story selection and guest booking too. The producers are doing a great job!

Just when I think I know a lot about this city, City Cast Denver tells me something I hadn’t heard. Love it!
MediumSizeLebowski via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/19/22
This podcast is essential for people in Denver. I’ve learned so much and Bree and Paul are so fun to listen to!

Love listening to Bree & I’m so grateful to have this podcast! It makes me feel connected to one of my favorite cities!
SDSU V via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/19/22
This podcast is everything I didn’t know I needed. Every single day I learn something new about a city that I thought I knew by heart. Y’all cover the important stuff, but also remember to keep it light and fun! (My favorite episodes are the food battles!) Thank you for all the hard work!
Peymargar via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/19/22
Love listening to Bree’s view of Denver. Plus, her warmth and humor make me realize how much we’d be friends in real life!
ChiCarrie via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/19/22
This show carries the spirit of Denver with such vigor and passion that it always feels like I’m right there when they talk about any part of the city or its history!
AK ALMoumen via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/19/22
I’m usually one to criticize the layperson review process, however, Bree asked for a review for her birthday in the latest episode so here it is. I only began listening to the show a few weeks ago and became an instant fan with the Denver Bronco episode. The team works very well together to...Read full review »

I have officially incorporated City Cast Denver into my daily routine. Great topics, amazing perspectives and the best guests! For years I longed for a podcast about Denver. Please never stop!

I loved to the Denver area 8 weeks ago. Citycast Denver helps me stay abreast of what is happening in the city I now call home. Thank you!

Can you be nostalgic for a city where you’ve never lived? Denver is one of those places I visiting a bunch and thought about moving to and decided I couldn’t afford. Now I live vicariously through this podcast. It’s smart and amusing, really well done
justanothermanicmolly via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/29/22
When not covering progressive hot button issues this show shines otherwise it is just a circle jerk of partisan cause celebration. You can even hear the manic tone in the guest and host voice as they struggle to agree with each other as quickly as possible. Otherwise the show can be good when...Read full review »
