WKXL - New Hampshire Talk Radio

Monday’s program featured Hockey East correspondent John Leahy as the men’s and women’s program in that conference get underway for the 2023-24 season.

Also Monday we were joined by author/investigative journalist Irvin Muchnick to discuss his new book, “Without Helmets or Shoulder Pads: The American Way of Death in Football Conditioning”. Mr. Muchnick’s latest book focuses on the more that 700 deaths of high school football players over the past century and the fact that student athletes are four times more likely to die during practice or conditioning drills than they are from blocking and tackling during the games themselves.

Todays guest was Tom Lott from the production Hand to God. I enjoy a puppet show as much as the next, but, what happens when those cute little puppets become demon possessed? Well, Tom Lott from the Actors Coop in Derry dropped by to sort out the details of the show Hand to God being performed at the Hatbox Theatre in Concord!

He also took the time to discuss the origins of the Actors Coop, it’s relation to the Kids Coop as well has how he got “the theater bug” himself.

It's Friday, which means the Friday Fun Bunch is in the WKXL Studios! Ken Cail interviews Kitty Rae the OFFICIAL “Flick Chick." They chat all things Football, Movies and more!

Tom Raffio, President and CEO of Northeast Delta Dental joined us Thursday to update the busy week events his company is participating in and also making his weekly NFL Picks.

Once again Redington Road (the home of WKXL) was rocking with the sounds of Stand Up Audio. The four-man band featuring Joe Pero, Joe Cadrette, Ben Cooper and Heath Auger was live in our studio playing their original songs including a local favorite, “Peter’s Girls”. You’ll just have to listen to hear the back story and the fun song about the ladies of a certain Concord hair salon.

This week on Facing the Future, we look at the “day of reckoning” that our guest Eugene Steurele of the Urban Institute, says is coming for U.S. fiscal policy.

And we’ll also get Steuerle's take on why the budget is, and has been, transferring resources from America’s youth to richer, older generations. Concord Coalition policy director Tori Gorman and chief economist Steve Robinson join the conversation.

I love the Hatbox Theatre in Concord and I love Andrew Pinard the founder of said theatre!! Andrew dropped by to chat about the future of the Hatbox because of all the rumors about the mall that houses it. He gave us the scoop about the mall, the surrounding area and the Hatbox as best he understands it from his contact with the mall management.
