A Nation Under Stress 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 winter weather conditions and escalating unrest in Minneapolis, setting the tone with a reminder that “it’s not a party until something breaks.” He notes that roads are currently clear but urges listeners to prepare for potential snow and bitter cold, pivoting quickly to what he sees as a system under stress. Brett focuses on leadership shakeups tied to recent violence, arguing that former arrangements failed and that placing Tom Homan in charge represents a necessary reset. He contrasts Homan’s long law-enforcement background with what he calls political mismanagement at the state and city level, particularly in Minneapolis.
Bo Thompson from Good Morning BT is also here for this Tuesday’s episode of Crossing the Streams. Brett and Bo talk about the adrenaline-fueled weekend of winter weather coverage and why live, local radio still matters when conditions turn dangerous. From ice, snow, and real-time listener reports to the unique bond between a radio station and its community, the conversation highlights how familiar voices help keep people informed—and calm—when it matters most.
Bo also shares what listeners can expect as another potential winter system looms this weekend, and how forecasters are tracking a possible shift from ice to snow. Plus, Bo previews what he and Beth Troutman have coming up Tuesday morning on Good Morning BT, including continued updates on the unrest in Minneapolis and a powerful reflection on the 40th anniversary of the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster.
