About the Show

Here and Now is a weekly one-hour talk show that airs from eleven to noon on Wednesday. The program focuses on public policy and politics in Arizona, but regularly examines legal, social, medical, economic and environmental issues. The goal of the show is to provide in-depth information and analysis without all the rhetoric you’ll often find on talk radio. Listeners also play an important role by calling in or posting questions and comments online. Here and Now is hosted by Steve Goldstein, who grew up in the valley and hosts All Things Considered weekday afternoons. Steve has a keen interest in state history and public policy which is reflected in the depth of research he does for each show and the quality of questions he asks guests. Here and Now is produced by Paul Atkinson, who has covered public policy and politics in Arizona for more than a decade. Paul seeks a wide range of topics that help listeners better understand what’s going on and why. When he books guests, he does so with the aim of finding informed, articulate people who’ll complement—rather than talk over—each other.

Upcoming Show

Here and Now: Megapolitan

[Growth & Development]  [Environment]  [Politics]  [Election]  [Education]  [Economy]  [Tax Policy]  [Science and Technology] 

How does Arizona keep temperatures from rising and water from declining as the cities of Phoenix and Tucson move closer to becoming one of the largest 'megapolitans' in the county? Will home construction drive the economy as it has the past 40 years or will technology driven industries finally become the backbone of our economy? Local development attorney Grady Gammage and the Nature Conservancy's Pat Graham discuss what the area could and should look like in the future. Have a question or comment? Post it below.
