I'm your host on the 'Late Side' from Midnight til 6am during the week and on the weekends, I host The Saturday Night House Party with Sounds By Todd from 7pm to midnight .
A native of Lafayette,Indiana.. I got the 'Radio Bug' when he was 13 while listening to his father's old Stan Freberg albums from his radio shows. After seeing his son so drawn to radio, his dad, introduced me to Melvin Lindsey and 'The Quiet Storm' on WHUR in Washington,DC when he was stationed at the Pentagon. Needless to say, I was hooked!
I attended Indiana St. in Terre Haute,In and The Professional Broadcasters Institute in Indianapolis. I was hired at at 107.9 WTPI(later becoming WNTR IN 2005) in July of '94 and was there until 2009. On WTPI, I was the weekend host of 'Nightbreeze' and on WNTR I was the host of 'Saturday Night Live with JC' from 2006-09. I'm a big kid at heart and I love collecting sports and Superhero memorbilia(remember the 'Big Kid' part I mentioned? lol).
It's a privilige to finally to be able to work at a radio station with the history of WTLC. It took a long time for me to get here but it was worth the wait and I'm so grateful for that.

Mary Wilson admits she, Diana Ross, and Florence Ballard weren’t really fond of “Where Did Our Love Go.” The singer tells Billboard.com it “wasn’t like a Martha & the Vandellas song,” and didn’t feature the group’s usual “intricate harmonic patterns.” She explains that she and Ballard “didn’t do anything,” but “just had to sing ‘baby, baby.'” The group got “Where Did Our Love Go” — with no option to refuse it — only after The Marvelettes turned it down. The Supremes had already released several singles with little success, but Mary says they weren’t discouraged — they were desperate. She recalls pleading with songwriter Eddie Holland that if they didn’t have a hit their parents would make them go to college, and he reassured her that “this is going to be a smash.”
And he was right. Friday marks the 50th anniversary of The Supremes’ “Where Did Our Love Go” topping the Billboard Hot 100. The song also went to number one on the Billboard R&B chart and the “Cashbox” chart.
