New Hampshire Public Radio

Informed. Empowered. Sustained.

Through trustworthy journalism, NHPR enriches lives and helps build stronger communities, in New Hampshire and beyond.

For 40 years, New Hampshire Public Radio has produced timely, accurate, and independent journalism in the public interest. With our media landscape fractured and our democratic governance under stress, we now renew our commitment to producing trustworthy journalism that builds stronger communities, in New Hampshire and beyond - and to providing the resources and supporting the people who make our journalism possible.

Because we support something that the listeners of public radio also support, there’s a kind of association there, and I think it works out very well. I think what it helps to do, is it makes us and our product and our brand just more familiar to people, people who share our values.

I listen to NHPR almost every single day when i’m in the car, and i receive NHPR e-news too. I trust the reporting and really appreciate getting more in-depth perspectives and information from different points of view.

I’ve enjoyed listening to NHPR on my commute, and appreciate the insightful content, from the outdoors, health and wellness, diversity and political commentary. I feel like I’ve become a more informed, kind and compassionate human being.

NHPR PROGRAMMING

Bear Brook
is a podcast about a cold case that forever changed the way murders are solved and has been downloaded more than 21 million times. It received acclaim from The New Yorker, The Boston Globe, Buzzfeed, The Verge, Vulture, MPR, and others.  

Civics 101 is the podcast refresher course on the basics of how the U.S. government works, hosted by Hannah McCarthy and Nick Capodice. Each episode explores civics topics – the Declaration of Independence, the 19th amendment, the vice president– through interviews with experts and teachers. The hosts ask the questions you’ve wondered but may be too afraid to ask and stitches them together into engaging narrative stories.

Waking up is hard to do, but it's easier with NPR's Morning Edition. Morning Edition provides news in context, airs thoughtful ideas and commentary, and reviews important new music, books, and events in the arts. All with voices and sounds that invite listeners to experience the stories. Locally hosted by Rick Ganley.

All Things Considered is the most listened-to, afternoon drive-time, news radio program in the country. Every weekday, local host Julia Furukawa and national hosts present two hours of breaking news mixed with compelling analysis, insightful commentaries, interviews, and special - sometimes quirky - features from NHPR and NPR.
