WKXL - New Hampshire Talk Radio

The Sports Machine with Slim is delivering new content to our listeners on Christmas Day! The biggest and best game of the NFL season will be played tonight as the Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers square off. The best team in each conference. Christmas night with the whole world watching. What an incredible gift!

Slim and callers expertly give their opinions on what will happen in this game and the other Christmas Day NFL games as well. We make a quick pit stop to a Celtics Lakers discussion, but the majority of time is spent with Slim telling everyone that the 49ers WILL BE your NFL champions this season! Don't even try to debate him on it!

The newly developed WKXL Spotlight series continues with an episode profiling a New Hampshire focused business that takes us deep inside the craft beer industry. The City has locations throughout NH, and they pride themselves on trying to carry every beer available in the state! During today's show, Mike Buote from The City joins the Spotlight to take us on a journey inside their stores. We begin the show by talking about their craft beer selection, and then discuss the vast offerings available in their wine and cigar sections. The City location in Seabrook, NH has become a tourist destination and is one of the busiest stores in the state! Learn more about a fantastic New Hampshire based business on this episode of the WKXL Spotlight!

What a football game we have coming up this Christmas Day weekend! Baltimore vs San Francisco. A football fan's dream gift. The whole country will be watching on Christmas Monday as the best from each conference square off!

The Sports Machine with Slim and callers give everyone a little preview of the Ravens/49ers game on today's edition of New Hampshire's fastest growing sports talk radio show. The TOP 10 FANS of the show are announced. And we let everyone know where our listener's $100 donation to charity will be going. The TOP 10 is taking off! Don't get left behind!

My guest today was friend, director and author George Kelly! I asked George to stop by so that I could pick his brain about his group Granite Playwrights, his various plays that have been performed outside NH, how he decides which topics to write about, the impact of the closing of the Hatbox Theatre on is group and finally I grabbed some ideas of what to do in NYC based on his many visits. https://www.facebook.com/Graniteplaywrights

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."

WKXL is thrilled to be able to shine the light on some local businesses, organizations, and individuals who are doing great things in New Hampshire via our new show - WKXL Spotlight. Today we happily invite The Capital City Sunrise Rotary Club onto the WKXL airwaves to share some of the incredible deeds being performed by this special group of people.

The CCSRC is non-profit, non-political, and non-religious. Their mission is, quite simply, to help those in need. Two of their members join us today to tell us more about Rotary International and their local, award winning, 13 person Rotary Club. Thank you to Phil and Mike for all that you are doing to make a difference in our state and our world!

Last night the Celtics proved to everyone that they are the most talented team in the NBA. With Jayson Tatum and Al Horford on the bench, the Celtics stomped on Sacramento in their home stadium by a score of 144-119. There was no "lighting of the lamp" in Sacramento last night!

But the Celtics don't have everyone convinced that they have a winner's mentality. Listeners called the show to explain why the team will come up short once again, as they have each of the past few years. The Sports Machine with Slim has some words for those with doubts: This season is different!

Thursday we were joined by three members of the New Hampshire State Legislature. Senators Tim Lang from District 2 and Howard Pearl from District 17 plus Representative Michael Moffett from District 4. All three discussed what was ahead during the upcoming legislative session in addition to talking about the bell ringing they are going to do this Saturday, 12/23 outside the NH State Liquor outlet on Storrs Street in Concord. The event will be held from 9 AM to 7 PM and all proceeds will benefit the Salvation Army.

This week on Facing the Future, we’ll focus on the latest economic projections from the Federal Reserve Board. Their last meeting, which concluded on December 13, certainly made some news with the projection that the Fed might actually begin to reduce interest rates in 2024.

To guide us through the economic news, our guest this week is Robert Carroll, Co-leader of the EY’s Quantitative Economics and Statistics (QUEST) group. Concord Coalition policy director Tori Gorman and chief economist Steve Robinson join the conversation.
