The Campbell Conversations is a weekly interview-based public affairs show hosted by Grant Reeher, Director of the Campbell Public Affairs Institute at Syracuse University’s Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs.

The Campbell Conversations is an interview-based public affairs show hosted by Grant Reeher, Director of the Campbell Public Affairs Institute at Syracuse University’s Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs.

The half-hour show features extended, in-depth interviews with its guests—typically just one guest per show. Guests include notable people from Central New York—writers, politicians, activists, public officials, and business professionals—whose work affects the public life of the community, as well as nationally-prominent figures visiting the region to talk about their work.

We go beyond and behind the current news cycle to explore the more lasting questions about public affairs. The show is taped and airs Fridays at noon on the WRVO stations throughout Central New York, and is also archived on the websites of WRVO and the Campbell Public Affairs Institute.

The Campbell Conversations – “Conversations in the Public Interest.”

The program is fed as 20-25 minute segments for a half-hour weekly newscast compatible program, or can be placed within a larger program as a weekly segment.
