Two radio guys discovered that today's listeners wanted true music variety. With not only a variety of different songs, but a variety of different styles of music as well.
The challenge is, “how would they put it all into one station”? Well, one day, while carrying bulging boxes of 45's, CD's, and vinyl albums to a storage area, the two guys accidentally ran into each other, dropping all the music in random order on the floor (kind of like chocolate and peanut butter in the Reece's commercial).
Suddenly, and like a bolt of lightening, it hit them! What appeared to be a musical mess, turned out to be just the right mix, and what they were looking for.
So it began, they loaded thousands of songs into a big computer and hit shuffle! Thus, Joe was born!
Q: Why did you change your name to Joe?
A: Because collection people kept calling
Q: Who picks the music?
A: Nobody---Joe plays everything on shuffle
Q: Does Joe ever play requests?
A: Eventually
Q: Who writes the stuff Joe says?
A: A staff of writers sequestered in a lonely room high above Dollar General in Mullens
Q: Was Joe named after Gov. Joe Manchin?
A: No, but if the governor would like to inquire about naming sponsorship opportunities, he can contact the Joe-FM sales department
Q: Well then, who was Joe named after?
A: A dude named Joe
