Sloppy Joe hails from The 51st State, Washington DC. We'll skip to the job history. The education part isn't worth writing about. Lackluster would be a good way to sum up his educational background. After a few stints in loss prevention, customer service, retail management, CD sales, and a few other things he wasn't good at. He decided he could wreck the radio and he did. A late-in-life community college education was just what he needed. The radio wrecking began in the nation's capital, continuing in Vermont, and against better advice he was hired in Cedar Rapids. He left before the flood for the greener pastures of Peru, IL. The green wore off after almost 20 years and he returned to Cedar Rapids. If we're being honest, but we never are, he should've never left. Sloppy Joe now calls the afternoon on KHAK home.
