News Talk WBT AM/FM in Charlotte is welcoming a new voice to its morning program. Multiple Emmy-winning documentarian, television host, and former Congressional candidate Beth Troutman is the new co-host of “Good Morning BT” with Bo Thompson.
“I was immediately impressed by Beth from our first meeting,” Marsha Landess, Regional Vice President and Market Manager for Radio One, Charlotte, said. “Her contribution as a guest with Bo, and her infectious positivity, has only reinforced that impression.
“Together, they’re able to speak to the moms and dads and working professionals of Charlotte as generational peers, and we are incredibly excited to have Bo and Beth begin WBT’s second century as our morning team.”
Troutman and Thompson have developed chemistry, considering she has been a regular guest with Thompson on WBT. In addition, Troutman has brought her media experience and personal insight to discussions with the station’s listeners.
As a result, the station noticed how the two seamlessly moved the conversation from news and politics to sports and entertainment and their shared Charlotte-native experiences.
Good Morning BT with Bo Thompson & Beth Troutman debuted on April 1, 2022, from 6 AM-10 AM on News Talk 1110 & 99.3 WBT.
