    On Air with Brett Huber: Alaska Is Losing Its Way. Can We Fix It?

    Alaska has incredible resources, enormous potential, and generations of people who have built their lives here. So why does it feel like the state is moving in the wrong direction? In this episode of On Air with Brett Huber, Brett comes to you from the banks of the Kenai River for a candid look at the political battles shaping Alaska’s future. He breaks down the latest twists in the governor’s race, the high-stakes United States Senate race, ranked-choice voting, key legislative contests, and why he believes Alaskans need to look beyond campaign ads and start asking tougher questions. Brett also digs into some of the bigger challenges facing the state—education, fisheries, energy, the gasline, government spending, and whether Alaska is still creating the kind of opportunity that allowed previous generations to build businesses, raise families, and thrive here. His message is clear: Alaska’s future isn’t predetermined. But if Alaskans want something better, they have to get involved, pay attention, vote, and demand more from the people who represent them.

    Is Alaska Doomed? Two Generations Have an Honest Conversation

    Can young Alaskans still afford to build a life, buy a home, start a business, raise a family, and create a future in the state they love? On this episode of On Air with Brett Huber, Brett is joined for the first time by new co-host Halle Carter, a lifelong Alaskan who brings a very different generational perspective to the show. Brett has spent 35 years around Alaska politics and public policy. Halle openly admits she’s still trying to understand a political system that often feels confusing, overwhelming, and disconnected from the problems people her age actually face. Together, they ask a much bigger question: Is Alaska still creating opportunity for the next generation—or are bad policies getting in the way? They get into the aftermath of Alaska’s primary election, ranked-choice voting, the state’s budget problems, natural resources, oil and gas, education, the proposed gasline, the influence of money in Juneau, and why so many Alaskans feel increasingly disconnected from their government. They don’t agree on everything—and that’s exactly the point. On Air with Brett Huber is about having the conversations Alaskans should be having: politics, business, the economy, faith, family, opportunity, culture, and the future of the state—with some humor and common sense along the way.

    The Good, the Bad & the Ugly of Alaska’s Governor Race

    Who should be Alaska’s next governor—and is anyone in the field really ready to lead the state? On this episode of On Air with Brett Huber, Brett gives his candid, unfiltered assessment of the governor’s race. After decades inside Alaska politics, he knows the process, understands the players, and has seen firsthand how political decisions are really made. He breaks down what he sees in the current field, where he thinks candidates are strong, where they fall short, and why voters should look past polished resumes and campaign talking points. The conversation also goes well beyond personalities. Brett digs into the issues he believes Alaska’s next governor must confront, including the budget, fisheries, resource development, education, the Permanent Fund Dividend, ranked-choice voting, the cost of living, and whether young Alaskans will still be able to build a future here. This isn’t an endorsement. It’s an insider’s perspective and a challenge to Alaska voters: ask better questions, demand real answers, and decide what kind of state you want to leave to the next generation.

    35 Years Behind the Curtain: How Alaska Politics Really Works

    In the first episode of On Air with Brett Huber, Brett shares the story of how Alaska became home—and why, after more than three decades inside Alaska politics and government, he believes it’s time to fight for the opportunities that once defined the Last Frontier. From arriving in Alaska in 1984 with a young family, a Jeep, a U-Haul, and $600 to his unexpected entrance into politics, Brett reflects on the people, experiences, and lessons that shaped his view of public service. He also explains how Juneau has changed, why money and power play such an important role in the political process, and why he believes too many young Alaskans are questioning whether they can afford a home, raise a family, build a career, or create a future here. Brett also lays out what listeners can expect from On Air: an insider’s look at how Alaska really works, along with conversations about politics, business, the economy, family, faith, culture, opportunity, and the future of Alaska. This is just the beginning. Subscribe to On Air with Brett Huber on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, iHeartRadio, Pandora, or wherever you listen to podcasts.
