On Air Today: Exploring the Regenokine Program for Healing Joint Pain

Aaron welcomes Dr. Thomas Buchheit of Triangle Regen Medicine & Biologics Center in Chapel Hill, to discuss an innovative new treatment for joint pain. It’s called the Regenokine program, first developed in Germany about 15 years ago; early studies have shown promise in healing joint pain in both the short and long term, and Triangle Regen Medicine is one of only a few places in the U.S. that currently offers it.

The Morning News: State Budget Reactions, Duke Energy Bills, County Commissioner Candidates

In today’s news: local elected officials react (largely negatively) to the new state budget recently signed into law by Gov. Josh Stein. Also: Duke Energy nears agreement with state regulators on next year’s rate increase; another candidate applies for the open seat on the Orange County Board of Commissioners; and a new poll shows a tight Senate race between Roy Cooper and Michael Whatley. And in sports: academic honors for UNC men’s tennis, a national TV appearance for field hockey coach Erin Matson, and reflections on the NCAA’s new eligibility rules.

What We’re Thinking: Close Races in North Carolina, Yet Again

This week, Tom and Aaron discuss a new PPP survey of North Carolinians that shows a tight race to replace Thom Tillis in the U.S. Senate. Democrat Roy Cooper leads Republican Michael Whatley 48-44, but that lead is largely a function of Cooper’s higher name recognition; most remaining undecideds are GOP-leaning voters, so Whatley still has a path to victory. The same is also true in the race for State Supreme Court, where Democratic incumbent Anita Earls narrowly leads Republican challenger Sarah Stevens 44-42. (Democrats do have a 46-44 edge in the generic legislative ballot, which gives them an opportunity to make big gains in the North Carolina General Assembly.)
