On this special edition of the podcast, NHJournal presents a pundit roundtable the morning after the Iowa caucuses. What does Trump's big win mean for the Granite State and its First in the Nation primary?

We ask veteran GOP strategists Pat Griffin and Jim Merrill, and New England College Professor of Politics Nathan Shrader.

On this edition of the NHJournal podcast, we talk to First Congressional District GOP primary candidate Hollie Noveletsky. CEO of Novel Iron Works in Greenland, and a veteran of the Army Nurse Corps Reserves and New Hampshire National Guard, Noveletsky told NHJournal she got tired of complaining about America's crisis.

"Either I have to stop complaining about everything that's going on and accept it,  or step up and fight."

On this special "We were supposed to be off this week and not do a podcast" edition of the podcast, we talk to former S. C. Gov. Nikki Haley from the car as she makes her way between campaign stops in the North Country.

Obviously we talk about her less-than-ideal answer to the Civil War question during the town hall in Berlin, but also get her answer to the questions that have since been raised about her campaign. Can she handle hard questions? Is she tough enough to be the GOP nominee and take on the overwhelming tide of negative press that would follow?

Also, we make a quick pitch for end-of-year support from those of you who like what NHJournal is doing and want to help us keep up the good work in 2024. (Click here to help!)

Anthony Salvanto, Ph.D., is CBS News' director of elections and surveys and the man behind the poll that pushed the New Hampshire primary into a new gear. The CBS News poll gave Nikki Haley 29 percent support, just 15 points behind Donald Trump. He joins the NHJournal podcast to talk about what he sees in the New Hampshire numbers.

And then former NHGOP state party chairman Fergus Cullen gives his analysis of the #FITN Republican primary, and why he believes the entire nomination fight could come down to South Carolina -- thanks to the help of New Hampshire.

Kari Lake is best known for being an unapologetic MAGA candidate for Arizona governor and a committed Donald Trump supporter. So listeners may be surprised to hear the message of unity she brought to New Hampshire during a recent campaign swing through the state.

And state Sen. Dan Innis, a professor at UNH, talks about the flier an anti-Israel student left on his car last week, yet another sign of the political turmoil that continues to hit New Hampshire politics as the Israel-Hamas war continues.

Live from the Airport Diner in Manchester, NHJournal presents Diner Table Economics!

Want to hear the specific economic proposals from the people who want to be the next president of the United States? You’ll get it here, straight from the candidates themselves, over a cup of coffee at the iconic Airport Diner.

No “horserace politics,” no “politics of personality,” just a 25-minute conversation about jobs, inflation, taxes, and spending. The policy positions from regulation to tax reform that impact the daily lives of Granite Staters and all Americans.

Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) leads one of the most economically-free states in the union (but not the MOST free, right, Gov. Sununu?) On this edition of the NHJournal podcast, he has a message for NH GOP primary voters: I understand how big government leads to unintended consequences. From COVID to EVs to tobacco bans, DeSantis says government mandates often make their own problems.

Plus, his take on the latest from Israel and its war with the Hamas terrorists, and the odd reaction from progressives in the U.S.

Emerson College Director of Polling Spencer Kimball's new poll of Granite State primary voters is full of surprises for Joe Biden -- and not necessarily good ones. And, Kimball says, Trump's lead in the GOP primary is beginning to approach the "I" word status ("Insurmountable?" "Inevitable?")

That's all part of the New Hampshire Journal podcast, plus our conversation with Rich Gulla, head of the SEA/SEIU in New Hampshire. If you're expecting the usual Big Labor cliches from the head of the state employee's union, you're in for a surprise here, too.

All made possible by our sponsor, Dr. Bruce Houghton at Perfect Smiles of Nashua.

Entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy is on the NHJournal podcast, fresh from his debate with Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) at the New Hampshire Institute of Politics. The GOP POTUS candidate talks about the massive ideological divide that exists in American politics. He also shares what New Hampshire voters tell him they want to talk about, and he offers his take on the NH Dems' new push for more gun control in the wake of the horrific mass shooting in Maine.

Also, the host's take on the current state of the First in the Nation primary, and the potential impact of Rep. Dean Phillips' candidacy on the Democratic race.

Minnesota Rep. Dean Phillips has rolled into the Granite State to turn the Democratic First in the Nation primary into a real race. Ana Radelat with the MinnPost.com covers Gopher State politics and she has the info every potential primary voter should know before they cast their (write-in?) ballot.

And we caught up with Casey DeSantis at the Red Arrow Diner in Londonderry and got her take on how GOP primary voters are feeling about the POTUS race and the nation.

All of that, after a (mostly) brief rant from  NHJournal Managing Editor Michael Graham about the stomach-churning level of humiliating obsequiousness NH Democrats have achieved in the wake of Joe Biden's attempt to kill the FITN primary.
