Water Talk with Host Scott Whatley and Paul the Waterman is brought to you by Water Pro’s, is helping Colorado families understand what’s really in the water they drink every day. This week, Paul takes a closer look at Colorado’s ongoing water-quality concerns, including PFAS “forever chemicals,” microplastics, pharmaceuticals, chlorine byproducts, and other contaminants that may be present in our water supply. We’ll also discuss a growing concern for Colorado homeowners—the Denver Basin and declining groundwater levels. If your home relies on a private well, don’t assume that means your water is automatically clean or safe. As groundwater levels drop, wells can be affected, and changes in water levels may also impact the quality, taste, odor, and mineral content of your water. Well owners need to pay attention. Water that looks clear can still contain contaminants you can’t see, smell, or taste. Know what’s in your water before you drink it. Call Water Pro’s today at 303-862-5554 to schedule your FREE in-home water test and find out what you and your family are really drinking and tell them Scott sent you.

On this episode of Legal Talk, host Scott Whatley sat down with Kevin Flesch of Flesch Law to discuss the five common mistakes that can significantly hurt a personal injury claim. First, delaying medical treatment can raise doubts about the seriousness of an injury and weaken the connection between the accident and the medical condition. Second, speaking too freely with the at-fault driver’s insurance company can be risky, as recorded statements may be used to reduce or deny a claim. Kevin also emphasized the importance of staying off social media, since photos and posts can easily be taken out of context. Following your doctor’s treatment plan is equally important, as missed appointments or ignoring medical advice may suggest your injuries are not as severe as claimed. Finally, waiting too long to contact an experienced personal injury attorney can result in lost evidence, fading witness memories, and missed legal deadlines. Taking the right steps immediately after an accident can make a significant difference in protecting both your health and your legal rights. Attorney Kevin Flesch of Flesch Law has over 30 years of experience in Denver and throughout the State of Colorado. Kevin Flesch and their attorneys represent personal injury victims and people accused of criminal acts throughout the Denver area. It’s always a free consultation at Flesch Law. Call Kevin today at 303-806-8886 or visit the website at www.fleschlawfirm.com. Got a legal question? You can now TEXT the Flesch Law Line 24/7 with your legal question: 720-201-8585.

On this episode of Your Legacy Your Way, Attorney Carolyn Duncan of Duncan Legal talks about a topic that many of her clients have shown to not have much knowledge about or simply do not understand what the 5 year “Look Back”, actually means. Carolyn says the Medicaid 5-Year Look-Back is one of the most misunderstood aspects of long-term care planning, yet it can have a significant financial impact on families. This episode explains what the look-back period is, why Medicaid reviews financial transactions made during the previous five years, and how those reviews determine eligibility for long-term care benefits. Listeners will learn the critical differences between Medicare and Medicaid, including why Medicare generally does not cover extended nursing home care while Medicaid often becomes the primary source of assistance for those who qualify. The discussion also explores why the look-back rule exists, what types of gifts and asset transfers can create problems, and how violations may result in a penalty period that delays Medicaid eligibility. Attorney Carolyn Duncan explains which assets may be exempt, including a primary residence under certain circumstances, one vehicle, personal belongings, and certain burial arrangements. The program also highlights common mistakes families make, such as waiting until a health crisis occurs, giving away assets without understanding the consequences, failing to maintain financial records, or relying on well-meaning but inaccurate advice. Most importantly, listeners will discover how proactive planning with an experienced elder law attorney can help protect assets, avoid costly mistakes, and provide greater peace of mind for themselves and their loved ones.

In this interview, Dr. Carl Rebhun, a board-certified ophthalmologist specializing in Oculofacial Plastic Surgery, explains the unique blend of precision, artistry, and medical expertise required to care for the delicate structures around the eyes and face. He clarifies that oculofacial plastic surgery differs from general plastic surgery because of its intense focus on the eyelids, brows, tear ducts, and surrounding facial structures areas that directly impact both vision and appearance. Dr. Rebhun discusses how procedures such as eyelid surgery are often more than cosmetic. Drooping eyelids and brow descent can significantly impair vision, cause eye strain, and diminish quality of life. He also highlights his work in reconstructive surgery following Mohs procedures for skin cancer, helping patients restore both function and natural appearance after tumor removal. A key theme throughout the conversation is achieving “natural results.” Dr. Rebhun emphasizes subtle enhancements that refresh a patient’s look without creating an overdone appearance. He also addresses common misconceptions about Botox® and fillers, noting that when performed properly, non-surgical treatments can be safe, effective, and conservative. Drawing from elite training at Vanderbilt University, Tufts School of Medicine, NYU, and a prestigious ASOPRS fellowship, Dr. Rebhun underscores the importance of patient safety, individualized treatment plans, and compassionate care in helping patients look and feel their best. Call Colorado Eye Consultants and schedule your appointment with Dr. Rebhun 303-730-0404.

Once results are back, a treatment plan is made and the clinic is seeing great results. Sharon explains the symptoms that patients are experiencing and many have suffered for years. Then we switch topics to cover the IV Therapy part of the practice and Sharon does a great job in explaining all the different types available. Always a free consultation 303-781-5617.

On this episode of Legal Talk, host Scott Whatley sat down with Kevin Flesch of Flesch Law to cover one of the most misunderstood areas of constitutional law, the Fifth Amendment, Miranda warnings, and knowing your rights when interacting with law enforcement. Kevin explained that the Fifth Amendment protects individuals from being compelled to incriminate themselves, but many people misunderstand when and how those protections apply. The discussion clarified that Miranda warnings are only required in certain custodial interrogations and that officers are not obligated to read those rights during every encounter. Listeners learned the important differences between being detained, questioned, and placed under arrest, along with why those distinctions matter legally. The conversation also addressed one of the most common questions Kevin receives: Should you ever speak with police without an attorney present? He explained why even innocent people can unintentionally make statements that complicate an investigation and emphasized the importance of remaining polite, truthful, and respectful while clearly invoking your constitutional rights when appropriate. Kevin also discussed common misconceptions about refusing to answer questions, traffic stops, consent to searches, and how the rules can differ for juveniles. Using real-world examples from his years of criminal defense experience, Kevin illustrated how seemingly harmless conversations have led to criminal charges, while properly exercising constitutional rights has often protected clients from unnecessary legal problems. The program concluded with practical advice for listeners: know your rights before you need them, never lie to law enforcement, avoid guessing or speculating, and seek experienced legal counsel as early as possible if you believe you are under investigation or have been arrested.

On this edition of Your Health Matters, brought to you by Integrated Health Systems, Functional Nutritionist Elizabeth Mahnke discussed how nutrition plays a vital role in maintaining energy levels and why diet is often an overlooked cause of chronic fatigue. She explained that the foods we eat directly affect blood sugar stability, brain function, hormone production, and the body’s ability to create energy. Diets high in sugar and refined carbohydrates can cause rapid spikes and crashes in blood sugar, leading to brain fog, cravings, and afternoon fatigue. Elizabeth emphasized the importance of eating balanced meals that include quality protein, healthy fats, and fiber to provide steady, lasting energy throughout the day.

The conversation also highlighted several key nutrient deficiencies that commonly contribute to fatigue, including low iron, vitamin B12, folate, vitamin D, and magnesium. Staying well-hydrated and limiting ultra-processed foods can also improve energy while helping reduce inflammation throughout the body. Elizabeth encouraged listeners to focus on lean proteins, healthy fats, colorful fruits and vegetables, high-fiber carbohydrates, and adequate water intake as the foundation for better health. She also reminded listeners that persistent fatigue isn’t always caused by diet alone and may signal underlying medical conditions such as thyroid disorders, diabetes, sleep apnea, anemia, or other health concerns. When fatigue continues despite healthy lifestyle changes, a comprehensive medical evaluation and appropriate laboratory testing can help identify the root cause and guide effective treatment. It’s always a free initial consult call 303-781-5617 or visit their website at www.IntegratedHealthDenver.com.
