It's March 2, 1933, and a U.S. Senator fresh off busting the Teapot Dome scandal—America's biggest political corruption case—is secretly honeymooning with a glamorous Cuban widow when his train suddenly stops between Wilson and Rocky Mount. He doesn't get back on. In this episode of JoCoYo, we ride the rails with Thomas J. Walsh from Montana mines to Havana romance, through poisoning rumors and political enemies, to his mysterious final stop just 40 miles from Benson—where a political titan met eternity and Johnston County entered the history books.

When Philip Bramblet came to Rocky Mount, Virginia, to pastor Furnace Creek Baptist Church, he knew God had called him there. What he didn't realize was the journey he and the church would have to take and how long it would take. It's a revitalization story of two 5-year chapters, including a time when he was almost shown the door! But along the way, Philip learned one thing that he constantly needs... GRIT. God, Repentance, Instruction, and Time.

Colby T. Helms was an absolute gem to talk to on the episode. We chatted about how he got started by performing around town, what's coming next, and his AmericanaFest experience (so far).  The Blue Ridge Mountains wind through eight states over astretch of 615 miles. In Virginia, they overlook Franklin County south ofRoanoke. Back in the day, bootleggers would refer to the area as “The MoonshineCapital of the World” due to its perfect placement to export contraband. Thesedays, the textile mills of Rocky Mount and other once cozy-towns have shutdown, leaving minimal opportunity and a lot of hopelessness. At the bottom ofthe Southwest Virginia foothills half-a-mile from the nearest neighbor, ColbyHelms resides in an “underground house” built by his late father. He hunts andtakes care of his mom. He also pens the kind of raw and real country music thatcuts to the bone. After signing to Photo Finish Records, he introduces himselfwith a series of 2023 singles and his forthcoming debut album.    Joined by his band The Virginia Creepers, he cut his teeth with countless gigs around the area. He also shared a series of arresting D.I.Y. performance videos on YouTube, including “Smoke and Flames.” With starkly honest songwriting and a sharp angular twang to his vocals, he struck adynamic balance between country storytelling, blue grass energy, and blues power. He caught the attention of Photo Finish Records and inked a deal with the label in 2023.  Now, he's shining a light on a very special part of America and offering up hope.   Be sure to check Colby out here:  Website: Colbyhelms.com IG: colbythelms FB: Colbythelms TikTok: Colbythelms YouTube: Colby T.

North Carolina Democrats need to flip just one seat in the state Senate next year to give Gov. Josh Stein more veto power. Republicans hold a veto-proof majority in the chamber. Whether the GOP keeps that power could come down to a few key 2026 races. WRAL state government reporter Will Doran explains why Democrats are focused on their candidate in Rocky Mount — and how Republicans plan to stop him.

A two-year-old is in critical condition after shooting themselves with an unsecured gun that belonged to their 17-year-old uncle. Officers say the teen had two guns--one of which was reported stolen 50 miles away. WRAL's Aaron Thomas explains what we know about the investigation so far.

With 6 days left until Election Day, former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are holding dueling events on Wednesday in two battleground states. Trump will rally in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, and Green Bay, Wisconsin. Meanwhile, Harris will speak in Raleigh, North Carolina, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, and Madison, Wisconsin.The Supreme Court decided on Wednesday to allow Virginia to remove suspected noncitizens from its voter registration rolls, siding with Gov.

Virginia has removed some 1,600 voter registrations that it said came from self-identified noncitizens.The U.S. economy grew at a 2.8 percent annual rate from July through September, with consumers helping drive growth despite the weight of still-high interest rates. Wednesday's report from the Commerce Department is the last major piece of economic data to come in before the November election.

With six days until Election Day, former President Donald Trump campaigned in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, before heading to Green Bay, Wisconsin, for another rally. Vice President Kamala Harris is rallying in Raleigh, North Carolina; Harrisburg, Pennsylvania; and Madison, Wisconsin—all in a single day.The Supreme Court ruled to permit Virginia to remove suspected noncitizens from its voter registration rolls. Gov. Glenn Youngkin's administration has removed approximately 1,600 voters, calling it a common-sense measure to prevent noncitizens from voting.Officials said the incendiary devices used to set ballot drop boxes on fire in Portland and Vancouver, Washington, this week were marked with the message “Free Gaza.” Investigators are searching for a suspect, as well as a vehicle believed to be linked to the arson.Flash floods killed at least 95 people in Spain's eastern region of Valencia after torrential rain battered the area.

North Carolina has voted for a Democratic president only once since the 1970s. But the party's dream to flip the state never dies—and in fact, could be realized this year. Polls show the presidential race in North Carolina is dead even, and Democrats are making a massive effort to reach more rural voters. “Doug Emhoff should just get a pied-à-terre here, at this point,” says David Graham, an Atlantic political writer who lives in Durham, North Carolina. Donald Trump can't win without the state. And if Vice President Harris loses Wisconsin, Michigan, or Pennsylvania, she'll need North Carolina's 16 electoral votes. In this week's Radio Atlantic, we do a deep dive into North Carolina politics, culture, and scandals with Graham and Atlantic senior editor Vann Newkirk, who grew up in Rocky Mount. If the state goes for Harris, will it feel more solidly new South? And could our national election really turn on a local scandal and a tragic flood?

Born on Oct. 10, 1917, in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, Thelonious Sphere Monk became one of the most influential figures in jazz history. Monk moved to Manhattan in 1922, where he began playing piano at age six. By 13, he had won the Apollo Theater's amateur contest. His first recordings as a bandleader came in 1947, and he gained international fame with albums like “Brilliant Corners” and “Thelonious Monk with John Coltrane.” Monk became one of only five jazz musicians to appear on the cover of Time magazine in 1964. He passed away in 1982 at the age of 64, but his legacy endures through the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz, which continues to train new generations of musicians. Learn more about your ad choices.
