Nuggets Playoff Predictions, Northside Faves, and Bigfoot Believers Gather

The Nuggets are having one of their best seasons in decades as they take the number one seed in the Western Conference Finals. But after years of negotiations between Comcast and Altitude Sports, many Nuggs fans still can’t watch the team legally. Host Bree Davies is joined by Altitude sportscaster Vic Lombardi and our state politics and green chile correspondent Justine Sandoval to talk #nugglife, plus their shared love of Denver’s Northside, since both Vic and Justine grew up there. And of course, we’ve got our favorite picks for your weekend plans — newsletter editor Adrian González is joined by our returning editor Peyton Garcia, who’s back on the show after maternity leave. Welcome back, Peyton!

Northside spots mentioned in this episode:

• Chubby’s
• Tamales by La Casita
• Lechugas Italian
• Rocky Mountain Lake Park
• Berkeley Lake Park
