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

Brett kicks off the program by talking about the intense summer heat gripping the city and the deeper heat of geopolitical tensions rising in the Middle East. With characteristic passion, he pivots to a powerful reflection on the solemn duty of making hard choices—especially those that concern war, peace, and national destiny. Drawing on historical, biblical, and moral references, Brett underscores the weighty consequences of armed conflict: lost lives, broken families, and the soul of a nation tested under fire. He quotes Joan of Arc, General MacArthur, and Winston Churchill to emphasize the gravity and cost of warfare, stressing that such choices must never be made lightly. Brett calls for justice, compassion, and a higher moral purpose—even in victory. Citing Matthew 5:9, he urges the pursuit of peace as not only a strategic goal but a sacred obligation. It’s a stirring and sober reminder of what true leadership and sacrifice demand.

We're joined by Coach Matt Doherty to talk about the evolving landscape of college athletics and the high-stakes tensions in the Middle East. Kicking off with a discussion about surprising player transfers between rival schools—like a UNC recruit heading to NC State and a Duke catcher landing at Chapel Hill—Coach Doherty shares his frustration over what he sees as a loss of loyalty and tradition in college sports. He calls for more structure in the NCAA, likening the current environment to chaos. The conversation then pivots to foreign policy, where Coach and Brett explore the dangers brewing in the Middle East. Coach Doherty draws parallels between international instability and its impact at home, emphasizing the importance of U.S. leadership and alliances. With humor, candor, and depth, the conversation ranges from locker rooms to global diplomacy—underscoring that leadership and integrity matter at every level of the game.
