Say hello to

Professor Joe

One day in my teens I realised the car was on fire and there was no driver at the wheel, so I turned up the radio and it’s been going steady since.

About

Get to know Professor Joe

I’m just a lad who enjoys a good tune – and there has been plenty of wonderful music made that has become a source of great joy to me.

I discovered RTRFM after stumbling into a Radiothon party one year at the Bakery (RIP), sometime between 2012-2014 (it all seems a bit hazy). I went to the 2015 Radiothon party and therein I become a much more active listener and advocate of the station.

To be involved in a community where I can share that love for music, while simultaneously be acquainted with new tunes, overlooked gems, and uncovered treasures, seemed like an inevitability. In 2017 I started volunteering in the office, and by the end of the year I was presenting. It’s been an enriching and rewarding experience being involved in the station, and I have met many wonderful people along the way.

Outside of the station I try my best to inspire young people to embrace creativity and an appreciation for discovery and learning. It’s a perpetual work in progress.

How did you become involved in the station?

Former Out to Lunch presenter Nelson encouraged me to get involved with the station. I started out by volunteering in the office, helping the wonderful Rhian with the communications side of things, and it just kept rolling from there.

Tell us about your most memorable gig, either attending or playing at?

Attending the post-match gig at the Reclink Cup in 2022 after the incredible fourth-quarter comeback by the Newshounds, of course.

What is your favourite show (other than your own) on RTRFM?Golden Apples of the Sun. I've been lucky enough to present it a few times - hurrah!

Golden Apples of the Sun. I’ve been lucky enough to present it a few times – hurrah!
