Pat will be with us today, following a string of family matters that has kept him away for the last few weeks. Welcome Back, Pat!
.
Also joining us is Dan McGuire, who, when looking over his resume/bio, fits the description of what a NH "renaissance man" might be, if there was such a person. This should be an interesting and wide-ranging discussion.

Special in-studio guest Dan McGuire. In addition to recently helping a GOP candidate win a special House election in Hooksett, he is an active Republican serving on the Merrimac County Committee, the State Committee, the Platform and Bylaws committees, and belongs to the Republican Liberty Caucus. He is also active in a long list of conservative/ small "L" libertarian causes, including: NH Reagan Network, Granite State Taxpayers, Pre-engineering Technology Advisory Council (promotes and advises pre-engineering education in NH), NH Parents for Educational Freedom (school choice), Your State House (weekly public access TV show in Manchester), Epsom Planning Board, NH Liberty Alliance, Free State Project, Coalition of NH Taxpayers, Club for Growth (National fund raising and lobbying group for lower spending & taxes. Also, he is active (beleive it or not!) in several non-political groups as well– He is president of the NH Bridge Association, Granite State Ambassadors, an "angel" investing group in Nashua and, according to him, Murphy’s Tap Room. Hmmm. He’s not Irish, is he?

Several MTNP programming notes:
.
(1.) We apologize for not getting to half of the topics on the list. As usual, we got off on multiple tangents (which was OK, BTW) and ran out of time. We have offered Dan an opportunity to come back again soon. (2.) We will make a concerted effort to put the schedule up on Fridays from now on. This morning, due to a server error, we were unable to post it much before the start of the program. (3.) The number of Internet listeners continues to grow. We thank all of you listening in all formats and would appreciate any feedback you might have. We hope to begin a virtual parade of presidential hopefuls beginning in the next few weeks. From both parties. While tough, we are not a "shout" show and promise to be a "sandbag-free zone" for all guests– even ones we disagree with. Our aim is to provide an enjoyable, informative and ENTERTAINING program every Saturday. We want you to feel smarter by the end of each show.
