About this episode

The episode explores various activities and events happening in Denver in June 2026, featuring guest David Sirota.

The sun is out, and we’re ready to take a dip! From a cool way to rent a boat to the best spots to get in – or near – the water on a day trip to the mountains, we’re rounding up our fave things to do, see, eat, drink, and explore around the Mile High City this June. Our contributor and editor-in-chief of The Lever David Sirota joins to swap Pride recs, a DIY beer-arepas-ice cream crawl, and our pick for the best Red Rocks show of the summer. Bree mentioned our new weekly newsletter, Keep It Local! Check out the latest edition featuring a great list of Denver metro shops for swim gear (like Swim N’ Things) and educational spaces that teach swimming, diving, and more!
