Vanessa Sinders talks with Neil about building a network not only on the Hill, but everywhere you go. Your relationships with people extend far beyond Congress: they extend well into the corporate world and into your personal life. 

Todd Fahey, director of AARP New Hampshire, discusses finding meaning in doing political work, and how to really value those you advocate for. 

You might have had a class with her--Karoline Leavitt, Saint Anselm '19, joins Neil and discusses how her career really took off!  Four years ago, Leavitt was a student runner during the primary debates on campus, and now occupies the office just beyond the bright blue door to the left of the press room podium. 

Liz Johnson, Communications Director for Senator Mitt Romney, details her climb up the political ladder from a constituent services intern for Susan Collins to assisting Kelly Ayotte in preparing Neil Gorsuch for his confirmation hearings. One major theme: always maintain your connections and use them to your advantage. 

Mike Vlacich is a New Hampshire Democratic Party staple. Getting involved with politics right out of college, he's worked with the likes of Hillary Clinton, Jeanne Shaheen, Maggie Hassan, John Lynch, and Bill Clinton. For Vlacich, its all about being a professional: figuring out who you work with well, where you work well, and where you want to go with your career. He's got some great advice for students, too! Tune in to learn more about this  political veteran!

Brad Card has been around politics his entire life; his father Andrew H. Card would take him out on the campaign trail. He attended Saint Anselm for politics (sound familiar?) After joining and retiring from the New Hampshire State Police, Card ventured down to Washington and began his career in public policy and lobbying. Interested in politics but not sure if you want to join the party machines? Do you like focusing on one issue rather than all of them? This episode is for you!

Grady Keefe discusses what being in high school and on the town council at the same time is like, the grueling career that is campaign advance, and the ups and downs of working for Hillary Clinton and so much more. Tune in for career advice, and a behind-the-scenes look at Election night 2016 and the controlled chaos that ensued at the Javits Center that night. 

Join us as Neil talks with Pat Griffin, a political consultant with excellent advice for growing your career and who encourages listeners to be a pro in every situation.  

Like many Saint Anselm students, James Pindell made the savvy decision to avoid DC and study politics closer to home. A journalist that cares more about the "hows" and the "whys" than who's behind and who's ahead, Pindell talks about his journey to the Boston Globe, the state of the political journalism world, and offers listeners some advice on how to overcome writers' block.

From greeting Walter Mondale at the Airport the day after her graduation to having a heart-to-heart talk at 3 AM in a Tokyo hotel room with THE Guns n' Roses, Saint Anselm Alumna Cathy McLaughlin '84 has seen it all.
