About This Podcast

Q-Point Podcast, hosted by Corenna and David Quirk, is a nonpartisan platform for candid conversations with policymakers, public officials, and changemakers shaping Maine and the nation. We go beyond the headlines, diving deep into policy discussions, current events, personal journeys, proposed legislation, and leadership philosophies. From community leaders to government officials and business executives, our guests share their insights, experiences, and perspectives on the issues that matter most. 


Guests have included former Maine Governor Paul LePage, Congressman Jared Golden, House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, and Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows as well as several Gubernatorial and Congressional Candidates - to name a few. Focused on substance over soundbites, Q‑Point explores the real-world impact of legislative decisions, oversight, and public policy. 


Broadcast statewide weekend mornings on VOM Radio (101.3, 103.9, or stream from anywhere on the VOM App). Available anytime at QPointPodcast.com or on all major streaming platforms.
