Radio One's News/Talk WBT-AM & FM in Charlotte has renewed afternoon host Brett Winterble to a multi-year agreement. He arrived at WBT in February, 2020 from KFMB in San Diego, where he hosted afternoon drive beginning in 2015. Winterble's 20-year career in media encompasses hosting duties in radio and television, including afternoon drive on KFWB in Los Angeles, and producing for talk radio giants like Michael Reagan and Rush Limbaugh.

"Brett is a consummate professional, a true talent, and a bright and friendly presence both on the air and in the halls of these great radio stations," said Radio One Charlotte Regional Vice President and General Manager Marsha Landess. "We are thrilled that Brett Winterble will be part of the future of WBT for many years to come."

"From the moment I walked into the legendary WBT Radio it felt like home," added Winterble. "I am so thankful for the welcome and support I received from our clients, listeners, and incredible staff over these past 3 years. I am truly honored to continue this relationship with the best creators in the business. I am particularly grateful for the support of Urban One/Radio One, and Marsha Landess, Alfred Liggins, David Kantor, Mike Schaefer, and Kraig Kitchin in helping me to realize this professional dream. I can't wait to see what the future holds for all of us."
