Nevada Newsmakers is now in its 23rd year on the air. Until recently our online searchable archives only went back to 2005. We are now adding programs going back to 2002. We will release 5 programs a week every Monday so you can catch up on some Nevada history. There will be a weekly email to let you know which cohosts, guests and pundits will be up each week. Subscribe to the email here. These archives will be available on the Nevada Newsmakers web site and our Nevada Newsmakers YouTube Channel.
