Marshall Terry

Host, Morning Edition

Marshall came to WFAE after graduating from Appalachian State University, where he worked at the campus radio station and earned a degree in communication. Outside of radio, he loves listening to music and going to see bands - preferably in small, dingy clubs.

  • We’re getting another update on a story we’ve been following for a few months. The YMCA of Greater Charlotte announced over the summer that it plans to sell the Morrison Y in Ballantyne to a church for $42.5 million. Residents and Y members say they’re upset because the deal was handled behind closed doors and would mean losing a community space. For the latest, Tony Mecia of The Charlotte Ledger joined WFAE’s Marshall Terry for our BizWorthy segment.
  • It’s time for a fact-check of North Carolina politics. When you go to vote, you might notice a poll worker write on your ballot. Well, some recent posts on social media claim that disqualifies it. For more, Paul Specht of WRAL joined WFAE’s Marshall Terry.
  • "As a Black woman who began my career here, in this very department," said CMPD Chief Estella Patterson, "it is especially painful and disheartening to hear concerns from our community about racism coming from within the ranks of this organization."
  • We’re about a month out from a regional holiday tradition: the Southern Christmas Show. The annual event draws more than 100,000 people to the Park Expo and Conference Center, its home for almost 60 years. Organizers say that’s likely to change in the next few years, though. For more, Ashley Fahey of The Charlotte Ledger joined WFAE’s Marshall Terry for our segment BizWorthy.
  • This week, our Fact Check looks at the state Senate leader’s apparent flip on a suspension of the state’s gas tax, which Gov. Josh Stein signed into law Friday. Earlier this year, Republican Phil Berger indicated he was against a suspension as a way to offset high fuel prices. Last week, though, he led the charge to do just that.
  • Respectful debate and disagreeing with someone without despising them can feel like a lost art these days. That’s why WFAE and the Charlotte Mecklenburg Library Foundation are teaming up for Public Square: Charlotte’s Conversation Series. Former Davidson College President Carol Quillen will moderate the first conversation Oct. 29 at the Carolina Theatre. She joined WFAE’s Marshall Terry.
  • We’re less than a month away from the midterm elections. While the most prominent race in North Carolina is for U.S. Senate, there’s also an important race for state Supreme Court. Incumbent Democrat Anita Earls faces a challenge from former Republican state Rep. Sarah Stevens. You’re probably not familiar with her. She hasn’t run any TV ads, has largely avoided social media, and has raised little money. Reporter Bryan Anderson wrote about Stevens’ strategy, or seeming lack of it, for The Assembly. He joins WFAE's Marshall Terry to talk about it.
  • Discovery Place is nearly $15 million in debt to Mecklenburg County. The long-running museum says it’s not able to pay that amount, and in a few weeks the county could declare it in default. For more, Tony Mecia of The Charlotte Ledger joined WFAE’s Marshall Terry for our segment BizWorthy.
  • It’s time for a fact-check of North Carolina politics. This week, we’re looking at recent Republican claims that Roy Cooper, while governor, was far from North Carolina when Hurricane Helene hit the state in September 2024. Cooper is the Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate in next month’s election. For more, Paul Specht of WRAL joined WFAE’s Marshall Terry.
  • A fight is brewing over a development proposal in Huntersville. It calls for a car wash and gas station on Statesville Road near Sam Furr Road, or state Highway 73. It’s the latest project from a north Mecklenburg developer whose past proposals have also aggravated nearby residents.
