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.
