Q-POINT

by Corenna Quirk | David Quirk

Q-Point Podcast, hosted by Corenna and David Quirk, is a nonpartisan platform for candid, long-form conversations with policymakers, public officials, business leaders, community advocates, and candidates shaping Maine and the nation. The show goes beyond the headlines to explore public policy, current events, government oversight, proposed legislation, personal journeys, and leadership decisions. From affordability and healthcare to housing, education, public safety, and economic development, Q-Point examines the issues affecting communities across Maine and beyond. Guests have included Maine Governor Janet Mills, U.S. Senators Susan Collins and Bernie Moreno, Congressman Jared Golden, House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, former Maine Governor Paul LePage, former Congressman Bruce Poliquin, Maine House Speaker Ryan Fecteau, Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows, Maine Attorney General Aaron Frey, and numerous gubernatorial, congressional, legislative, and municipal candidates. Q-Point also brings listeners conversations with leaders in healthcare, higher education, law enforcement, housing, and business, including LifeFlight of Maine CEO Joe Kellner, Husson University President Lynne Coy-Ogan, and Maine State Chamber President & CEO Patrick Woodcock. Focused on substance over soundbites, Q-Point welcomes different perspectives and gives guests room to explain their positions, experiences, and priorities. The goal is to inform listeners, ask direct questions, and encourage thoughtful discussion. Guests’ views are their own. 📻 Airs statewide each weekend on The Voice of Maine and WLOB Portland, and can be heard worldwide through TuneIn. 🎧 Available on demand at QPointPodcast.com, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeartRadio, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, and other major podcast platforms. Prerecorded, produced, and sponsored by Corenna Quirk, Broker at NextHome Experience. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________This podcast is for informational and educational purposes only and should not be considered professional advice or recommendations of any nature whatsoever, and no warrantee, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy of  the information presented is made by your use.  The views, information, opinions, comments, and observations of this podcast may not be those of the host or the management, and you entertain and rely on the content presented at your sole risk and responsibility.  Your access of this podcast acknowledges that the contents and design are the sole property of the presenter and no use in any shape, manner or form of this podcast may be made without written permission.  The presenter of the podcast hereby disclaims any and all responsibility for any and all damages arising out of or related to your use, reference and reliance on podcasts and information presented therein.
