Q-POINT
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.

“There Is Talent In Every One Of These Communities.” — McCarthy On Revitalizing Rural Maine - PART TWO
In Part Two, Owen McCarthy shifts the conversation toward rebuilding opportunity across Maine’s rural communities. He outlines how workforce shortages, access barriers, economic stagnation, and outmigration can be addressed by tapping homegrown talent, expanding entrepreneurship, strengthening infrastructure, and embracing new industries.
He also explains why AI, innovation hubs, life sciences, and micromobility aviation can open the door for rural growth — and how policy changes can help local communities compete and thrive.
