Joe's Bio

Joe was born in a one room shack,...the only son of a dirt poor share cropper in the deep south...Actually none of this is true but hopefully we have your attention.

Joe most recently spent 5 years in Dallas Texas where he did a number of radio formats including Urban AC, Hot AC and even Country. Joe now teams with Ramonski Luv for "The Real Show" week-day afternoons on V-103 Chicago for "Today's R&B and Old School". He also does his own show "Back in the Day" on Saturday evenings from 5 to10pm.

He is a native Chicagoan who graduated from Farragut High School on the West-side and Daley College on the South-side where he received his Associate of Arts Degree. Joe then moved to DeKalb Illinois where he earned his Bachelors in Radio, Television and Film at Northern Illinois University.

After graduation Joe worked at a number of radio stations in various markets. Joe has been married to wife Darlene for 13 years. They have 2 daughters and a son. Sonia, Samantha and Sonny which he refers to as his "Triple Play Combination". They also have 2 dogs named Bonkers and Katie.

Aside from his family and radio..., baseball is his passion. He currently plays ball for The Oak Lawn Rifles in The Roy Hobbs League. He has won National Championship Rings with teams out of Dallas and Memphis.

Joe loves being on the air in his hometown. He thinks of his listeners as family members. If he could he'd give each one of them a pair of leopard skin drawers.
Finally Joe likes relaxing by watching the "Godfather" while eating pork rinds and drinking beer.
