In this episode of Just Us on Justice and Other Things, Scott and Dan Jones sit down with Edmonton radio icon Chris Scheetz for a powerful conversation about passion, sacrifice, and knowing when it’s time to move on.<br /><br /> Chris reflects on his rare 35-year career at a single radio station, the grind of overnight shifts, missed family moments, and the deep love required to survive in an industry that demands everything. He shares how COVID, chronic sleep deprivation, and a conversation with his family helped him realize it was time to leave radio on his own terms.<br /><br /> The discussion explores Chris’s impact beyond broadcasting—from the Stollery Radiothon and Hope Mission to life-changing fundraising efforts that reshaped how people understand community, homelessness, and compassion. Chris also talks about the mentors who shaped him, especially Bruce Bowie, whose influence extended far beyond the microphone.<br /><br /> Now working with Alberta Dreams, Chris continues creating meaningful impact, including breaking a world record on a Ferris wheel to raise funds for seriously ill children. He also co-hosts the Talking Scheetz podcast with his daughter, embracing a new chapter as a storyteller, speaker, auctioneer—and soon-to-be grandfather.<br /><br /> A heartfelt conversation about loving your work, serving your community, and recognizing when it’s time to turn the page.<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/just-us-on-justice-and-other-things--5542256/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/just-us-on-justice-and-other-things--5542256/support</a>.
