The Rush Hour with Scholes & Caria
The Best Drive of Your Day…
After an incredible year of over 600 interviews on-air, veteran broadcasters John Scholes and Elvira Caria are hanging up the headphones.
The Rush Hour show brought you engaging conversations, featuring expert guests covering a range of topics from Wealth Wednesdays with Kelvin the Money Guy to the latest trends in real estate, health and wellness, relationships, entertainment, and insights on protecting YOUR legal rights—and so much more.
It was a fast paced, exhilarating hour of conversation with Scholes & Caria, every Wednesday at 3 PM, exclusively on Newstalk Sauga 960AM, which will be dearly missed by listeners.

About Elvira Caria:
Elvira’s radio journey began early in her professional life, taking on radio gigs while still at university. She landed apart-time promotional role with The Key Limited Group, working at Key 590 AM and Edge 102.1. Elvira also volunteered weekends in the newsroom at CIDC 103.5 in Orangeville, now known as Z103.5.
After earning a Double Honours Degree in Mass Communications & English Literature from York University in 1986, Elvira joined The Toronto Sun as a City Reporter, a job she considers one of the best experiences of her career. However, by the early ’90s, the radio bug had bitten, and she transitioned into radio news, starting as a Central Ontario News Reporter at Bayshore Broadcasting in Owen Sound. She later worked in the newsrooms at Rock 95 in Barrie, as well as Corus Radio Hamilton, before making her way back to her hometown of Toronto.
Although most of Elvira’s career has been spent in the newsroom, her passion for music led her to cross into the on-air world, where she became one of the most dynamic personalities in the GTA. She’s widely recognized as the former co-host of the morning show at Z103.5 and as the Psychedelic Psunday chick on Q107.
