When it comes to federal elections, New Hampshire Republicans have a losing streak that compares with the Cleveland Browns. But Greg Moore and Sarah Scott, senior advisors to AFP Action, believe Republican John E. Sununu can break that streak next year. For the first time ever, AFP Action has endorsed a candidate in a New Hampshire U.S. Senate primary, backing Sununu over his fellow former U.S. Senator Scott Brown, and they explain their strategy on the podcast.

PLUS: Three things NHDems keep saying about the recently deceased Democratic government shutdown that are driving NHJournal Managing Editor Michael Graham crazy.

The podcast is sponsored by Perfect Smiles of Nashua.

A confident John E. Sununu (not to be confused with the many other N.H. Sununus, right Bret Baier?) joins the New Hampshire Journal podcast to talk about his newly-launched bid to return to the U.S. Senate.

In a conversation at the Bridge Cafe in Manchester, N.H. Sununu shares his take on the current federal shutdown, as well as the current state of GOP politics -- a very different party than it was during his last race in 2008.

Sununu on Shaheen, on Pappas, on the NHGOP and -- of course -- on Donald Trump.

Live from Castro's in Bedford, NH it's 'Cigars & Snark!' NHJournal Managing Editor Michael Graham is joined by his WTKK-FM producer 'The Great and Powerful Tom,' Tom Shattuck. They attempt to explain why the Jimmy Kimmel story isn't generating the 'Free Speech Now!' outrage from the Right that the mainstream media seem to expect. They also tell some stories from their career doing conservative talk radio from deep-blue Boston.

Find Tom Shattuck's "Burn Barrel" podcast here.

On a special edition of the NHJournal podcast from Castro's in Bedford, political operative and NH native Matthew Barlett joins NHJournal managing editor Michael Graham from his regular stool at Shelly's Backroom in Washington, D.C. to discuss -- and debate -- the assassination of Charlie Kirk and what it means for American politics.

Bartlett calls the shooter a 'lone wolf.' Graham disagrees. Also, what could this spike in political violence mean for the 2026 midterm elections in New Hampshire and beyond?

Kevin Sabet is President and CEO of the group Smart Approaches to Marijuana. He was in New Hampshire to talk to the National Association of Attorneys General about the impact of America's mass experiment with the commercial marijuana industry. His first book was called Reefer Sanity: Seven Great Myths About Marijuana, and he talks to NHJournal's Michael Graham about how New Hampshire's decision to stay out of the pot business may put it at the forefront of new thinking regarding legal weed.

Graham also gives a shout out to the New Hampshire progressives who've taken a break from chanting "Globalize the Intifada" and "From the River to the Sea" to denounce the handful of neo-Nazis who showed up at the state house.

A new NHJournal/Praecones Analytica poll has dropped, and NHJ Managing Editor Michael Graham talks about it with New Hampshire Institute of Politics (NHIOP) Director Neil Levesque.

But first, it's Executive Councilor John Stephen venting his outrage at Magistrate Stephanie Johnson and her mishandling of two high-profile cases, including the horrific murder-suicide in Berlin. He says it's time for Johnson to go and the court has the power to kick her out.

Plus, a bit of rank punditry from Graham as he tries to figure out what the heck NH Democrats are up to.
