About this listen
Welcome back to Joe Flanagan's Hampton Roads Podcasts! In this episode, Joe is joined by his longtime friend and former colleague, Sandra Parker, who spent an incredible 28 years at Channel 13. Together, they take a heartfelt and candid walk down memory lane, recalling some of the most impactful stories they covered—from the Oklahoma City bombing and 9/11 Pentagon attack to major hurricanes along the East Coast. Sandra shares not only the emotional highs and lows of covering breaking news, but also the behind-the-scenes stories and favorite lighter moments, like her “Does It Work?” product testing segment and the old Friday homecoming features. They reminisce about the challenges and joys of a life in local journalism, the evolution of the TV news industry, and how each found purpose after leaving the anchor desk. Tune in for a revealing, touching, and often funny conversation that celebrates the people, places, and stories of Hampton Roads.
