    Tune in here to this Thursday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show!  Brett kicks off the program by talking about the 2026 North Carolina Senate race and Roy Cooper’s record on criminal justice.

    Crime And Community Decline On The Brett Winterble Show

He emphasizes the importance of residents taking pride in where they live and working together to maintain and improve their neighborhoods rather than simply giving up when problems arise.

Later Brett is joined by Robin Faver to discuss her firsthand experience covering the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks while working for Associated Press Radio in New York City. Faver recalls being assigned to cover the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange before seeing the first reports of a plane hitting the World Trade Center. She immediately contacted the AP desk, went live on the air, and headed toward the scene as the second plane struck. Faver describes using pay phones to continue reporting after cell service went down, witnessing the South Tower collapse, and taking shelter underground as chaos spread throughout Manhattan. She also explains how she avoided reporting unconfirmed rumors and did not learn about the attacks on the Pentagon and in Shanksville until much later.
