  1. Love all the CO content this month! The Snake, CAIC, save the wild… how bout some Broncos love? 11-2, leading AFC (have the tie-breaker over NE). But yeah… pysched for the Bears too, even after close loss last night.
    Also, an episode late, but The Bear (the book) was tip-top. I went and read Krivak’s first book – The Sojourn… very different (WWI eastern Europe), but great with mountains and war and great characters. Highly recommended.
