WKXL - New Hampshire Talk Radio

Todays' guest was my good friend Scott Millette. Scott and I discuss working on the short indie film called “Teddy”. “Teddy is a throwback to 80’s slasher films…Teddy was shot in a total of under 6 hour, with no real plan.” Scott talks about Rebel House. “An amazing new creative Co-work space” that’s in the Fox Run Mall in Newington, NH. It’s an absolutely gorgeous facility dedicated to creativity and for podcasting (audio/visual). You have to see the photos to believe it! We also get into the NHFF in Portsmouth as well as the current state of filmmaking in New Hampshire. And as always much, much more!

Neil Levesque, Executive Director of the New Hampshire Institute of Politics at St. Anselm College, joined us Wednesday to discuss the Institute's just-released Presidential survey. Mr. Levesque also talked about the events of this past week in the aftermath of the first Presidential debate.

Tuesday's show marked our weekly visit with the New Hampshire Insurance Department and we were joined by Insurance Commissioner D.J. Bettencourt. Commissioner Bettencourt outlined why we are currently in a "hardening" insurance market and why our premiums have been on the rise in recent months. Also Tuesday we discussed the potential sale of the Boston Celtics and the possibility that the price tag for the franchise could be over five-billion dollars.

In the aftermath of last Thursday's Presidential Debate we talked politics on the Monday edition of the program with A.J. Kierstead, formerly of WKXL and currently host the the NewEnglandTake.com In addition, we were joined by our Hockey East guru John Leahy who talked about the recent National Hockey League draft. Monday also marked the debut of WKXL's new contest, "Vanity Insanity".

Not sure how I haven’t had my friend Dan Adams on the show before, but, it’s time to correct that error in judgment!! He’s been a paramedic since 2003. Was a police officer in the early 2000’s. So his life was public safety before he needed to make a change and got into education. He went to college for News Reporting and Anchoring, had some job offers but didn’t want to move across the country. He had always wanted to be an actor. So started doing some community theater then took a break. Then got cast at the Weathervane. Then it took off from there. Oh yeah, we got all the juicy details.

It's Friday, which means the Friday Fun Bunch is in the WKXL Studios! Ken Cail interviews Tom Raffio, President & CEO of Northeast Delta Dental and Kitty Rae the OFFICIAL “Flick Chick."

Anne Deely from Graylag Nature Preserve in Pittsfield, NH is our guest on Artful Living. Join us as we discuss this beautiful nature preserve and all it offers to our community and beyond. Please, join us!

This week on Facing the Future, Concord Coalition Co-Chairs Bob Kerrey and Jack Danforth preview the presidential debate and explain why the ballooning federal debt should be on the agenda. They'll also explain why, 30 years after they chaired a bipartisan fiscal commission, Washington's failure to ensure a more responsible path makes them angry.

No pressure on my end, but, rumor has it that we have a new WKXL show starting up called “Soundtrack Cinema” and it will be hosted by Daniel Siletti and it has fallen on my shoulders to introduce him to our beautiful WKXL audience. The show’s basis be Daniel playing themes, soundtracks, and songs from silver and small screens as well as some fun games and bonuses at the end of episodes. He’s been crazy active on his YT channel https://www.youtube.com/@danielsiletti4618  paying tribute to some of the best films and franchises ever. Time for me to get all the deets and pump the young buck up!

Dan Weed of Weed Family Automotive in Concord joined us in studio Wednesday to give us Fourth of July traveling advice and bring us up to date on automotive ransomware attacks that have been playing havoc in that industry in recent days. We also previewed WKXL's new "Vanity Insanity" contest with a weekly winner of a Conventional oil change and auto check up at Weed Family Automotive.
