JoJo was born one of a family of eight! They were loud and more often talked ‘at’ each other than ‘to’ each other, a skill which is perfect for radio. After graduating from Central Michigan University, JoJo worked at a station that had as much wattage as a refrigerator light bulb. He went from there to working on a Mexican radio station, where he was eventually kicked out for being an illegal immigrant. In his spare time, JoJo enjoys hurting himself with homemade CrossFit workouts and flinging paint on canvas and calling it ‘art’. He also has three daughters, who think he teaches college for a living.
