On Friday night at 9 o’clock turn off MSNBC and Fox and CNN and click over to Channel 4 and you’ll have a once in a lifetime experience: Gary’s being interviewed on Bill Friday’s program.

 

This could turn out to be like having a front row seat at a movie about North Carolina politics. Gary was part of Jim Hunt’s first two administrations as Governor. Hunt’s campaign against Jesse Helms. Hunt’s comeback in 1992. This will be an interview about North Carolina politics with someone who’s lived through a good part of it – and who despite it all has kept his sense of humor.

 

Gary’s interview will be broadcast on regular UNC–TV:

 

Friday at 9pm

And Sunday at 5:30 pm

 

And it will also be broadcast on UNC Digital TV:

 

Monday at 8am

Wednesday at 8 am, 12 noon, 4 pm, 6:30 pm, 9:30 pm

Thursday at 12:30 am and 3:30 am.

 

Sometimes people ask me how Gary and I get along so well when there’s hardly a thing we agree on – the answer’s pretty straight-forward: I could listen to Gary tell stories about Democratic politics for hours. It’s not often you get to hear about what goes on in politics behind the scenes – but you can Friday night on UNC–TV.
