Carl was born and raised in Elkhart. He is a graduate of Concord High School. A true-blue Hoosier, he decided to stay in Indiana for college. He attended Valparaiso University and is finishing his higher education at IUSB while covering some of the biggest stories in Indiana. During his time on-air, Carl has led live storm coverage, reported on extensive damage in the aftermath of the storms, helped lead coverage of the effort to ban “K2” sales from area convenience stores, and was front-and-center when Marlin Stutzman announced his intent for the seat vacated by former House Representative Mark Souder. Some of his favorite moments are reporting live, in-the-field, whether it’s from the county fair, a local protest on illegal immigration or in front of a home or business damaged by a storm. Carl says the best part of his job is meeting people, learning their stories, and bringing them to life, on-air.

Annette is a journalist with a 20 year track record in radio news – with dozens of awards to show for it. She was born and raised in southwest Michigan, and is currently raising four teenagers – and anxiously awaiting the return of her sanity. Check out her Facebook page and you’ll find her to be witty, funny….sometimes a little naughty. On the list of her favorite interviews over the years – William “The Refrigerator” Perry, because he was so sweet, warm, and caring for a “big football dude,” as she puts it. Also, Stevie Nicks, because Annette is a big Fleetwood Mac fan, although she says most of the actual interview with Nicks was less than coherent. Tornadoes, blizzards, accidents, fires…bring ‘em on. And if you have a heart-warming or a tear-jerking story to tell, Annette wants to hear from you, too!
