On this edition of Water Talk, brought to you by Water Pro’s, host Scott Whatley and Paul “The Waterman” Dowding tackled an important and often overlooked topic: disinfection byproducts (DBPs) in our drinking water and their potential impact on human health.
Disinfection byproducts are chemical compounds that can form when disinfectants such as chlorine or chloramine, which are used to kill harmful bacteria and viruses in municipal water supplies, react with naturally occurring organic matter in the water. While disinfection has played a critical role in protecting public health, researchers have spent decades studying the possible health effects associated with long-term exposure to certain disinfection byproducts.

During the program, Paul explained that some of the most studied DBPs, including trihalomethanes (THMs) and haloacetic acids (HAAs), have been linked in scientific studies to an increased risk of certain health concerns when exposure occurs over many years at elevated levels. Potential concerns that have been investigated include increased risks of bladder cancer, reproductive and developmental issues, and possible effects on the liver, kidneys, and nervous system.

Paul emphasized that consumers should not panic, but rather become informed about their water quality and understand the treatment options available to reduce exposure. The discussion highlighted the importance of testing, education, and advanced water treatment technologies, such as activated carbon filtration and reverse osmosis systems, which can help reduce many disinfection byproducts found in drinking water. As always, Water Pro’s offers a free in-home water test to help families better understand and improve the quality of their drinking water. Call 303-862-5554, tell them Scott sent you.

On this 7/2/26 episode of the Legal Talk Radio Show on KLZ560AM, host Scott Whatley sat down with Attorney Kevin Flesch of Flesch Law Denver Injury Accident Lawyers, to discuss “5 Things Most People Don’t Know After Being Arrested for DUI.” The interview focused on the critical mistakes and misunderstandings that can seriously impact a person’s case in the hours and days following a DUI arrest.

Kevin explained that many people don’t realize a DUI actually involves two separate matters — the criminal case and the DMV/Express Consent case — both carrying important deadlines and consequences. He also discussed how statements made to law enforcement, social media activity, and delays in hiring an attorney can all negatively affect a defense strategy.

Listeners learned the difference between roadside sobriety tests and chemical testing, along with the serious consequences that can come from refusing tests in Colorado. Kevin also emphasized that DUI cases are often more complicated than they appear, with factors such as medical conditions, fatigue, medications, and improper testing procedures sometimes playing a major role.

The conversation also covered what happens after an arrest, common defense strategies, and why choosing an experienced DUI attorney matters. The interview provided practical guidance for anyone facing a DUI charge or wanting to better understand the legal process.

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.

On this episode of Your Legacy Your Way, Attorney Carolyn Duncan of Duncan Legal discusses two of the most important estate planning decisions parents can make to protect their families and provide peace of mind for the future. The conversation began with the critical importance of naming guardians for minor children. Carolyn explained that if both parents become unable to care for their children and no legal guardian has been legally designated, the court may ultimately decide who will assume that responsibility. She encouraged parents to carefully consider factors such as parenting style, family values, financial stability, age, health, location, and, most importantly, the willingness of the individual to serve in that role. The program also focused on the importance of having a properly drafted will. A will allows parents to designate guardians for their children, direct how their assets should be distributed, appoint an executor to manage their estate, and help minimize confusion and family disputes during an already difficult time. Without a will, state law determines how assets are distributed, which may not reflect a family’s wishes. Carolyn’s motto is, “Helping People Solve Life’s Puzzles,” and she is passionate about helping families create a plan that protects the people they love most.

On this 6/30/26 edition of Your Money Matters, brought to you by Affordable Interest Mortgage, Host Scott Whatley talks with owner Kurt Rogers, about one of the biggest questions facing today’s homebuyers: Should you buy now or wait? Kurt explained that the answer depends on several factors, including where interest rates may go over the next year, whether home values will continue to appreciate, and the possibility that mortgage rates could actually increase. Using real-world examples, he demonstrated how even modest home appreciation can offset potential savings from waiting for lower interest rates. The program also explored how buyers can position themselves for the best financing opportunities by understanding their budget, down payment options, credit scores, and available loan programs, including first-time homebuyer programs, FHA, VA, and buydown options. Kurt highlighted the advantages of working with a mortgage broker versus a traditional bank, emphasizing access to multiple lenders, competitive pricing, specialized loan programs, and personalized service. The show concluded with an explanation of how seller concessions can significantly reduce upfront costs and reviewed the key steps prospective buyers can take to improve their credit scores before purchasing a home. Whether buying or refinancing, being prepared financially and informed about your options can save thousands and lead to a much more confident decision. Kurt Rogers is our exclusive Mortgage Broker.

On this edition of Water Talk, brought to you by Water Pro’s and hosted by Paul “The Waterman” Dowding, we tackled a common question among homeowners: Should you invest in a water softener and a reverse osmosis (R/O) system? Paul explained that while both systems improve water quality, they serve very different purposes. A water softener is designed to address hard water by removing minerals such as calcium and magnesium, helping to reduce scale buildup, extend the life of appliances, improve soap efficiency, and provide softer skin and hair. This is especially important in Colorado, where hard water is common. We also discussed the benefits of reverse osmosis systems for drinking water. R/O technology can help reduce contaminants such as lead, arsenic, PFAS “forever chemicals,” nitrates, certain pharmaceuticals, microplastics, and excess dissolved solids, while also improving taste. Paul emphasized that for many homeowners, the ideal solution is a combination of a whole-house water softener and an under-sink R/O system. Before making any decision, he recommends professional water testing to determine exactly what’s in your water and the best treatment options for your home. As always, Water Pro’s offers a free in-home water test to help families better understand and improve the quality of their drinking water. Call 303-862-5554, tell them Scott sent you.

On this episode of Legal Talk, host Scott Whatley sat down with Kevin Flesch of Flesch Law to discuss what people should know and do after an accident. The conversation made it clear that what happens in the first hours and days after an injury can significantly impact a claim.
Kevin emphasized that insurance companies are businesses focused on minimizing payouts, not ensuring fairness. One of the biggest mistakes people make is giving recorded statements too quickly or assuming the insurer will “take care of everything.” He explained that insurers evaluate risk especially whether an attorney is willing to file a lawsuit and go to court if necessary. The interview also covered what makes a case strong, how contingency fees work, and when it’s critical to hire legal representation. Kevin advised listeners to prioritize medical care, document everything, and seek experienced legal guidance early. The key takeaway: protect your health first, don’t navigate the insurance process alone, and understand that having an attorney who is prepared to litigate can make a meaningful difference in the outcome of your case. 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.

On this week’s Your Money Matters Radio Show, Kurt talked about how today’s mortgage conversation always begins with interest rates, which continue to move up and down based largely on the Fed Funds Rate and the 10-year bond market. Kurt believes this “rollercoaster” will continue over the next 12 to 18 months, making it important for buyers and homeowners to focus less on timing the market and more on their personal financial situation. He emphasizes asking the right questions before purchasing or refinancing, starting with affordability. Understanding your total payment—principal, interest, taxes, insurance, and possible HOA fees—is key, with most homeowners targeting 35% to 45% of their monthly income. Kurt also highlights the importance of credit scores, loan qualifications, and knowing your true costs, including closing expenses and cash-to-close. Whether buying or refinancing, being prepared financially and informed about your options can save thousands and lead to a much more confident decision. Kurt Rogers is our exclusive Mortgage Broker.
