In this episode, Phil and Dan welcome Dagan Migirditch, co-owner of Liars Bench Beer Co., one of our favorite local establishments.

In this episode, Dan and Phil welcome Lori Waltz to the show. Lori is the executive director of Leadership Seacoast, a program designed for the adult learner that creates a core awareness of community through exposure to a broad range of issues affecting the Seacoast and by presenting varied points of view on topics being studied.

Paul is an invaluable member of our community. He teaches courses in accounting and personal finance at UNH, and manages the books for our radio partner, WSCA-LP Portsmouth. Paul tells us about his life growing up in England in a town at the mouth of the Thames, and the various places he's lived and taught since arriving in America.

In this episode, we welcome Realtor, Travis Billingham to the show. You might be thinking, "I thought Dan was a Realtor. Why is he inviting another one on the show?" While it's true there are many "personalities" in the real estate industry that we don't particularly care for, Travis isn't one of them. In fact, in this show Dan and Travis announce they have recently decided to partner together, bringing their individual gifts together to become the real estate powerhouse you know is coming. Anyway, listen in. And share with friends.

When reflecting on the friendship shared between Dan and Phil, there is a long-running (16 years?), monthly meetup that earns the credit for first bringing our two hosts together as friends – NH Media Makers. The man behind the meetup is also a long-time friend of both Dan and Phil, John Herman. John is an educator, and artist, an improve actor, a film director, a published author, an organizer, he almost went to space... He's done a lot. We're lucky to welcome him to this episode where we discuss his new book available now titled, "Wentworth Cheswill's Ride,: A would be American Folk Hero" an historical accounting of the life of a remarkable man who left an indelible imprint on the communities of coastal New Hampshire. Truly, look him up. And read the book, available at http://johnherman.org and on Amazon.

It's difficult to describe some people in a way that encompasses their contribution to our community. Nicole Seaward is one of those people. Besides being the leader at the helm of WSCA-LP Portsmouth, Nicole is an industrial, organizational psychologist, which makes her a valuable resource to any organization looking to optimize their workforce in a way that values the individuals in addition to their contributions. In this episode, we talk about transitions, non-profits, opportunities for neurodivergent people (a topic of personal relevance for both Dan and Phil), and much more.

Some people are just... weird – like our guest in this episode, Ben Folstein, a musician, artist, cabinet maker, and host of the Weird People Show on WSCA-LP Portsmouth.

When you ask business leaders in just about any community across America where to find information about the local economy, you'll likely be directed to a local chamber of commerce. Portsmouth is lucky to have such an active chamber, and in this episode, Dan and Phill speak with Portsmouth Chamber Collaborative president Ben VanCamp.
