Oct. 22, 2025: Historical context for this moment in politics; Finding unity across the divide

We continue “If you can keep it,” our series to get historical context about this moment in presidential politics; political scientist Seth Masket from the University of Denver joins us. Then, a Denver man hopes to create a brand for unity in America to show people are less divided than it seems. Later, will Halloween be a trick or a treat this year? It’s just one thing we ask Denver7 chief meteorologist Lisa Hidalgo in our monthly weather and climate chat. And the Museum of Contemporary Art’s new director talks about elevating local artists and his vision for the Denver institution.

‘If you can keep it.’ A new series about unprecedented politics and policy

Benjamin Franklin said, “A Republic, if you can keep it.” He was asked – after the constitutional convention – if we were to become a republic or a monarchy? We borrowed from Franklin to name a new series, “If you can keep it.” With the help of University of Denver political scientist Seth Masket, we’ll meet unprecedented moves in government with scrutiny and historical context.
