September 30, 2025: International festival forced to go local, largest weed recall, Rockies manager, leaf peeping crowds
Description
A major cultural festival that usually brings artists from all over Latin America to Denver is having to pivot because of stronger immigration policies. Then, perhaps the biggest recall ever in Colorado’s cannabis industry could be a sign of wider worries about safety. Plus, what the Rockies’ manager has to say about their historically bad season. And, leaf peeping crowds shut down a town’s entrances.
