The Message

Known for documenting her own transformation from a non-believer to a faithful follower — or, as she calls it, “from atheist to amen” — during a popular string of viral TikTok posts, Olivia began sharing her songs like “Woman At The Well" and soon found herself being played on The Message. From having poor marks in conduct back in grade school for talking too much, she’s refined her chatty ways into sharing her thoughts and connecting with others via social media, her songwriting and now on the radio.

Tom Carter was 15 years old when he opened the mic for the first time; he had to do a newscast at 7 am on a Sunday morning. Considering he had a mouth full of metal braces at the time, he did pretty well.

When he’s not chugging another cup of coffee (he drinks way too much, but justifies it by saving all of the articles that say java has health benefits), Tom is acting goofy and utilizing his dry sense of humor. If he can make someone smile, he’s happy. But if he can make someone laugh, it’s a home run.

Ashley is originally from Indiana but calls Tennessee home. She is most definitely southern at heart. The biggest joy in her life is being a mom to two little ones. When she’s not on the radio, you can find Ashley either in her craft room or out in the barn. She has a mini farm and owns rescue horses, pigs, and LOTS of chickens! Chicken math is real! (Just look it up.)

Al’s first radio station was a Mr. Microphone set to broadcast to the *entire* Skop house. Let’s just say on SiriusXM he covers a bit more ground. Al is into hiking and biking and loves our country’s National Parks, which he’s  been checking off with his family over the last few years.

Doug Hannah has three idols: David Letterman, Tim Keller, and anyone who can shake exactly two Tylenol out of the bottle with one shake, every time. Though he grew up wanting to be a professional bowler, these days Doug is a jock on The Message, reminding listeners that God is a God of grace, and that you don’t have to work harder to earn anything from Him.

Other fun facts: Doug drinks an unbelievable amount of Diet Pepsi every day, and he’s a self-professed gadget freak. No, really. He buys every new iPhone and iPad the day they come out and is ALWAYS reading tech news blogs. He’s geeky like that.
