Middle East Tensions Rise & More On The Brett Winterble Show

The Brett Winterble Show

Tune in here to this Friday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show!

Brett kicks off the program with this edition of The Hangover w/ Pete Kaliner.

Brett and Pete discuss the escalating tensions between Israel and Iran The two delve into the implications of such targeted operations, praising the intelligence capabilities required and the silent approval from regional players like Saudi Arabia. They also highlight the broader message of deterrence behind the operation: any future nuclear launch from Iran could result in destruction from within. Shifting focus, Brett and Pete raise serious concerns about national security at home, specifically North Carolina’s delay in restricting foreign ownership of land near military installations.

In studio, we have Jim Artman from Resilient Recovery of North Carolina to discuss the ongoing humanitarian crisis following Hurricane Helene. Months after the storm devastated Western North Carolina, thousands of residents remain displaced—many living in tents, sheds, or cramped campers. Jim shares with Brett the stark reality of disaster recovery: destroyed homes, impassable private roads, and families at risk of losing their children due to unlivable conditions. His organization, alongside partners like Project Your Home and Hope Mill, is leading the charge in long-term recovery—rebuilding infrastructure and providing housing solutions where state resources fall short. With over 3,000 homes destroyed in some counties alone, the scale of the challenge is immense. Jim emphasized the importance of collaboration, community, and preparedness moving forward. Listeners are encouraged to support these critical efforts by visiting ResilientRecoveryNC.org. This conversation serves as a sobering reminder that the storm’s aftermath is far from over.
