    Dolly’s Legacy & SC Election On The Brett Winterble Show

    Tune in here to this Tuesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show!  Brett kicks off the program by talking about Dolly Parton’s passing at age 80 and reflecting on the remarkable legacy she built throughout her career. Brett highlights Parton’s incredible talent, her ability to connect with generations of fans, and the high standard she set for what it truly means to be “great.” He shares the story of Parton turning down Elvis Presley and Colonel Tom Parker when they wanted to record one of her songs because she refused to give up ownership of her work. Brett explains how Parton viewed her songs as her children and understood their long-term value, allowing her to maintain control and benefit from the success they generated. He also points to the growth of Dollywood and Parton’s charitable work as examples of her impact beyond music. Bo Thompson from Good Morning BT is also here for this special episode of Crossing the Streams. Brett and Bo talk about the passing of Dolly Parton at age 80 and her incredible legacy as an entertainer, businesswoman and cultural icon. They reflect on Parton’s ability to transcend music and politics while remaining a down-to-earth person who connected with people from all walks of life. Brett and Bo also discuss the closely watched South Carolina election, with Bo predicting a narrow victory for Darlene while acknowledging that Ralph Norman could still pull out the win. Bo explains why he expects the race to come down to turnout and says a Norman victory would not necessarily be a major political earthquake because both candidates support President Trump. Bo also shares what he and the Good Morning BT team have coming up tomorrow, including more coverage of Dolly Parton’s legacy, the South Carolina election results and an important CMS school board meeting.

    CMS Pressure, Senate Race & More On The Brett Winterble Show

    Tune in here to this Tuesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show!  Brett kicks off the program by talking about a sudden water outage at his home and the unexpected panic that comes with losing something most people take for granted. After discovering his faucet had been reduced to a weak trickle, Brett initially wondered if he had a plumbing problem before learning that work was being done somewhere in the subdivision. He humorously describes how quickly a homeowner can go from comfortable suburban life to feeling like a survivalist, taking inventory of every remaining drop of water in the house. We're joined by Brett Jensen to talk about a heated CMS press conference and the growing questions surrounding Dr. Hill and the school district's leadership. Jensen breaks down the back-to-school press conference, explaining how reporters repeatedly pressed for answers about stability within CMS and whether the current situation could affect students, parents, and the upcoming school year. He also describes a tense exchange with a newly elected school board member, who compared the situation to a grocery store CEO being suspended without shutting down the store. J Beth Troutman from Good Morning BT is also here for this Tuesday's episode of Crossing the Streams. Brett and Beth talk about the upcoming North Carolina Senate race between Roy Cooper and Michael Whatley, including the major issues expected to shape the campaign. They discuss how crime and affordability could become central topics as both candidates work to appeal to North Carolina voters, particularly independents. Brett and Beth also look ahead to the possibility of debates and how allowing the public to ask questions could create an interesting matchup between the two candidates. Beth also shares what she and the Good Morning BT team have coming up Wednesday, including conversations with political science professor Scott Huffman, cybersecurity expert Teresa Payton and representatives from the CRVA.

    The Great Society’s Cost On The Brett Winterble Show

    Tune in here to this Monday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show!  Brett kicks off the program by talking about the extreme summer heat and the political ambitions of Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear. Brett jokes about the relentless temperatures and encourages listeners to stay hydrated as the heat continues across the region. He then turns to Beshear’s comments about the economy, the cost of groceries, gas and health care, and his claim that he has created more jobs than any other governor in Kentucky history. Brett questions Beshear’s political positioning, particularly his effort to present himself as both pro-business and aligned with progressive Democratic policies. Later, Brett looks back at President Lyndon B. Johnson’s Great Society programs and questions the long-term impact of decades of federal spending. Brett argues that the Great Society established a pattern of increasing government spending and taxation that continues today. He examines the difficulty of calculating exactly how much has been spent on domestic programs since the 1960s, noting that the federal government does not maintain one single historical category for “domestic spending.” Using broader federal expenditure data, Brett highlights the staggering scale of government outlays since the Great Society era, pointing to a figure of more than $200 trillion in total federal expenditures over the period.
