"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."
