Regular guests will include the Governor, Lieutenant Governor, and the Attorney General of Virginia. The show features regular updates live from the General Assembly, as well as National News updates from CBS correspondent and UVA graduate Kimberly Dozier.

Coy Barefoot, best selling author, historian, and director of communications at the Sorensen Institute for Political Leadership at UVA is your humble host. “People are going to disagree on issues, and that’s okay, but we don’t have to demonize each other just because we disagree, and that’s going to end, we’re going to treat each other with respect.” says Barefoot when asked about the tone of the program. “Charlottesville,…Right Now” is waiting for your call, at 977-1070, weekdays at 4 on Newsradio 1070 WINA.
