Turn the Page with Colorado Matters

Colorado Matters invites our audience to read along with host Ryan Warner. A few times per year, we choose a book and host a live Q&A with the author. Later, audio from the event is aired during an episode of Colorado Matters.

Every Turn the Page show is different from the last. We’ve picked books from a variety of genres, and we've hosted the events both in-person and on virtual platforms.

However, one thing is always consistent: the authors we choose are connected to Colorado.

We hope to see you at the next Turn the Page with Colorado Matters!
