The Politics of Swiping Left or Right, Spooky Season Recs, and the Rise of Vegan Restaurants
Are politics creating a division in Denver’s dating scene? Or are lovers on opposite sides of the political spectrum just really good at navigating conflict? Food and dating contributor Sara Rosenthal talked to local couples therapists, and she tells host Bree Davies about the state of partisan love in the Mile High City. They also discuss some recent vegan restaurant openings and share personal recommendations for what to do this spooky season!
Bree mentioned the Broadway Halloween Parade’s great “know before you go” guide to the event this weekend. Sara recommended the Tracks Halloween Weekend festivities and the 13th Floor Haunted House.
