Drawing on syllogisms and pop culture references—from The View to Edith Wilson—they suggest both men are being managed or propped up by the women in their lives. Bo Thompson is also here for this Friday's edition of Crossing The Streams! Brett and Bo talk about Bo’s participation in the upcoming Meck Mile, where he’ll run in a media division heat at Memorial Stadium, emphasizing fitness over competition.

Leadership, Political Tensions And More On The Brett Winterble Show
Tune in here to this Wednesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by talking about the black smoke rising from the Sistine Chapel and the significance of the papal conclave in Rome. He reflects on the power and beauty of the Sistine Chapel, expressing sympathy for tourists now unable to visit due to the conclave. Brett shifts focus to domestic issues, criticizing the Biden administration for expanding federal surveillance to include "concerning behavior" rather than criminal acts. He alleges that symbols like the Betsy Ross flag, Gadsden flag, and even Catholic imagery have been flagged by federal agencies as potential signs of extremism. Highlighting past government actions against the Tea Party, We're joined by The Coach Matt Doherty to talk about leadership and whether America can truly be made great again. Drawing from his coaching experience, Coach Doherty uses sports analogies to frame political division as dysfunction within a team—arguing that when parts of a team pull in different directions, it’s hard to reach full potential. He suggests the left’s relentless opposition to Donald Trump has created a hostile environment, preventing national unity. Bo Thompson from Good Morning BT is also here for this Wednesday's episode of Crossing the Streams. Brett and Bo talk about the unfolding situation involving former Charlotte City Councilman Tariq Bokhari and CMPD Chief Johnny Jennings, as well as the political dynamics surrounding Senator Thom Tillis.

The discussion shifts to how this precedent might affect future city matters. They also explore Senator Tillis’s upcoming reelection prospects, noting the tension within his own party and the possibility of a heated primary.

Coach Matt Doherty On The Brett Winterble Show
Tune in here to this Wednesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! We're joined by The Coach Matt Doherty to talk about leadership and whether America can truly be made great again. Drawing from his coaching experience, Coach Doherty uses sports analogies to frame political division as dysfunction within a team—arguing that when parts of a team pull in different directions, it’s hard to reach full potential. He suggests the left’s relentless opposition to Donald Trump has created a hostile environment, preventing national unity. The conversation compares political strategy to basketball, highlighting how being on offense—like Trump’s assertive immigration policies—offers more control than defense. However, “referees” in the form of judges can interfere, blocking progress through rulings and legal obstacles. Coach Doherty emphasizes the importance of surrounding a leader with truth-tellers and capable advisors, and ultimately gives Trump high marks for his effort and focus. Doherty shares insights into how Donald Trump assembled his team, emphasizing the importance of giving clear missions, empowering decision-makers, and conducting post-action debriefs—principles rooted in both sports and military practice. He contrasts strong leadership with weak organizational structures, noting how Trump's transparent cabinet meetings stood in stark contrast to Biden's delayed and less visible approach.
