Mom, Dad, Todd, and his daughter Alyssa
Todd has been with KFYR 550 since 1997...the year of the famous 17-inch snowstorm with 70MPH+ wind gusts! Todd missed the heyday of K-Fire 550, so he found this:

He sent a blank audition tape, and got the job anyway (true story; the guy who hired him, however, is no longer with the company). He's since been promoted to the Operations Manager position with Clear Channel Radio in Bismarck and Dickinson ("more proof that everyone rises to their level of incompetence...").
Todd started working in radio in the '80s. Rochester, MN, Outer Banks, NC, Winchester, VA, back to Outer Banks, NC, to Columbus, OH, then Bismarck-Mandan. But his early experience was working for Rob Sherwood, the guy he grew up listening to in the Twin Cities.
Todd went to college for 5-and-a-half years, and got no degree. Was an Ohio State Buckeye, so naturally hates the Michigan Wolverines ("Ann Arbor is such a GIRL'S name!").
Write him anytime (toddmitchell@clearchannel.com), and join him weeknights 7-9PM, and for Saturday Night At The Oldies, 6PM-12Midnight. And, of course, at various other times, filling in and stuff...
