About NH Secrets Legends and Lore

From the publisher's feed

Welcome to the NEW HAMPSHIRE SECRETS, LEGENDS AND LORE PODCAST where twice a month we explore the world of New Hampshire that lies outside of the hard news. I’m your host, Wayne King, and I invite you to join us for an adventure that will take us on a journey together to explore those things that are unlikely to make the pages of your newspaper, the waves of your radio station or the bits and bytes of your favorite news website. Yet for many of us these stories will reveal what makes life here in the Granite State truly worth living.
