Description
My name’s Scott James, and for forty years I’ve been yapping into Colorado’s ears—on the radio, in the community, behind a podium, and probably in your inbox - so you could say we’ve got history. I’ve worn a lot of hats: broadcaster, advocate, elected official, professional loudmouth, and friend. Now I’m cramming all that charm, wisdom, and unsolicited opinion into The Scott Cast - a no-holds-barred brain-dump of my thoughts on culture, society, spirituality, politics, and whatever else I think the world’s too dumb to understand without my help.
27 Episodes

After 11 months of silence, I return with Ep. 92 of the ScottCast: “What Charlie Kirk Meant” - faith, purpose, and voices of a new generation.
The changing seasons remind us of God’s perfect timing in all things, both natural and national. As we face political shifts and cultural challenges, we must stand firm in truth. Trust in God’s control, knowing that He guides the rise and fall of nations according to His divine plan.
It’s been too long since I recorded a ScottCast, but tonight felt right—cigar in hand, Manhattan by my side, and the last warmth of summer fading. There’s symbolism here, and I’ll unpack it in the podcast. Tune in for thoughts on faith, politics, and life’s shifting seasons.
After a 75-day hiatus, I am back with a new ScottCast.
I’m still on the “ation” kick that I spoke so passionately about in Episode 87. Today, let’s dig into conversation and participation. Conversation I received a couple of questions via email/social media on Episode 87: All the Ations. I welcome your questions/comments. Contact me HERE. Do you support re-instating public comment at BOCC meetings? Kelly […]
-ATION. : Noun suffix. The action or process of doing something. Britannica Dictionary Frustration. Consternation. Trepidation. Indignation. All over the bloviation that exists in today’s political atmosphere. There is tremendous uncertainty. We have lost faith in our institutions. We don’t know who to believe. As mentioned in the ScottCast – where do I think we’re at? […]
Interesting that this is Episode 86. When I ran for US House, I was advised to make myself a smaller target and pull down my blog and podcasts. The advisement made sense in that the games politicians play involve taking their opponent’s words, lifting them out of context, twisting them, and weaponizing them. I deleted […]
This website has been silent since October 27, which is nothing overly different. It will fall silent for days, weeks, and sometimes months at a time because I get caught up in the busyness of life and after all, this personal page is just a “hobby.”
Sidenote on the Scott Cast – there is no fixed time. I just start talking and stop when I am finished.
The idea for this Scott Cast came in the shower – where most ideas for me come from. I got excited and then I lost inspiration. I talked myself out of it. In the Scott Cast – at the 2:04 mark, I mention a link to a blog post I wrote in 2019
And I need to throw something out there. I believe I have said this before, but I am a “procrastinating perfectionist.”
I visualize something – you name it – a podcast, blog post, home improvement project, etc. – and then procrastinate setting out on that which I visualize because it will never be as perfect in the natural as it is in my visualization.
Show Notes Good morning – I have about 20-minutes in the main studio before I get on with the bulk of my day, but I do want to crank out a quick ScottCast just to tee up conversations for the future. I have had no less than five people send me articles and other podcasts […]
The nation experienced another tragic school massacre yesterday. On cue, the same old arguments have emerged and I, for one, tire of the same old arguments. It’s not about guns. It’s about societal rot—the decay of a nation’s soul. Does this nation no longer believe in the sanctity of life? Today, I see the repeated question, […]

I have been called a lot of things since I became a public servant over 20-years ago, but this one surprised me. I am a Christain. That is the foundation of my worldview. I derive my moral compass from the teachings of Jesus Christ and I try to emulate his life. I fail every day […]
Well, maybe. Today I had more fun behind a microphone than I have had in a long time. What you’ll hear today is the very reason I wanted to bring the Scott Cast under my own purview – so I can have open conversations with friends about things that could be considered controversial or “too […]
Wait a minute?! The Scott Cast is not new – I’ve recorded nearly 100 episodes. (And this ain’t Star Wars – a new beginning?!) Well, it is a new beginning of sorts. I have not recorded an episode in nearly 8-months. I detail the reasons in this episode. There are big changes coming in my […]
Agree or disagree – but I’ll make my points in today’s Scott Cast.
Ryan Gonzales joins me as my very first guest on the Scott Cast! He has brown skin. I have white. Can we belong to the same “community of interest?” We discuss in today’s Scott Cast.
We watched Afghanis so desperate for freedom and to escape fascism that they clung to a plane just for a chance. Think you’re oppressed because they screwed up your pronoun? You’re insulted. Maybe embarrassed. Probably mad. But you’re not oppressed.
