This episode of RSL is a must-listen for anyone following the Colorado gubernatorial election.Ryan dives into the Victor Marx campaign, questioning whether Marx is a legitimate contender or just a "grifting fraud." Marx has been accused of ducking debates and using questionable fundraising tactics, including smurfing, which involves taking large donations and breaking them down into smaller amounts to avoid transparency.

The conversation also touches on the importance of debates in politics, with the speaker pointing out that Marx's opponents, Senator Barb Kirkmeyer and Representative Scott Bottoms, have been battle-tested in previous debates. In contrast, Marx's lack of experience and policy positions raises concerns about his ability to hold his own in a debate.

Ryan also shares a humorous comparison on fictional debates portrayed in comedy classics 'Old School' and 'Happy Gilmore' imagining whether Marx might respond more like the fever dream-inspired genius of Frank 'The Tank' Ricard - or the juvenile ramblings of Billy Madison citing 'The Puppy Who Lost His Way.' Meanwhile, the conversation shifts to a more serious note as the speaker discusses the importance of fact-checking and transparency in politics.

Also, Anjelah Johnson-Reyes joins Ryan to discuss her seventh stand-up comedy special 'Ugly Baby,' now available on YouTube. It's a tale, in part, of a 'miracle baby' she gave birth to in her forties (a daughter) after Anjelah changed her mind on having children during the COVID pandemic.
