Todd Gale

Todd has been involved in Christian radio since 2004! He started out as a volunteer in North Bay, then full time in Sudbury. Now Todd is one of the voices you hear every morning on the Get-Up & Go Show. He says a Gideon bible, a scary movie and a Kazoo played a big part in his coming to the Lord! He’s had an appreciation for Christian music since 1984 when the big bands were Petra, Michael W. Smith and Amy Grant! When he’s not on the air at LIFE, Todd enjoys playing drums at church, biking the trails with his wife, Rose, building models and doing stand-up comedy!

Retro Show with Scott Jackson

Scott is the Founder of LIFE 100.3. His first radio job was in Peterborough in 1977 at CHEX. From there he moved up and down the radio dial, both on-air as a DJ and in management was a Program Director. His journey took him across Ontario, Saskatchewan and eventually to Nashville in 1996 where he was the Vice President of Programming and Operations at WAY-FM. There, he learned the listener-supported side of Christian radio. Upon his return to Canada, he applied to the CRTC for the license to operate LIFE 100.3, which signed on the air August 15, 1999.

Scott is retired from full-time radio, but still hosts the Retro Show every Saturday morning. He also hosts a weekly outreach show on CJAI. Recently, Scott formed a band called The 8^th Line, recorded an album and is playing live shows. Scott also plays percussion every Sunday at Bethel Community Church. Scott and his wife Janice live in Oro Station.
