Saturdays 10AM – 3PM

Hey! My name is Joy and I am an On-Air Talent  for Springfield’s 101.9 The Wolf. I was born in Champaign-Urbana and I’ve grown up right here in Spring Patch ever since. Yes, that means I know just what you’re talking about when I hear people complaining. Whether it’s those damn potholes that seem to have existed since the dawn of asphalt in the strip mall area on the west side by County Market or which movie theatre is the one you should really avoid. When I’m not busy keeping you company on the air I’m spending time with my Fiancé’ and friends, investigating the latest news topic or in a “Don’t Even Think About Bothering Me!” moment with my Netflix catching up on Doctor Who and Supernatural. Catch me on The Wolf 101.9 Saturday’s 3pm-7pm and whenever I feel like it! 😉

Your favorite person you’ve met (celebrity/artist)
Bruce Campbell. Stan Lee. John Barrowman. I could go on and on and on and on about these guys and much more, but you are probably wanting to stop reading at some point right?

Favorite food?
Cheese. Bacon. Bread. Pasta. Bernie & Betty’s Pepperoni Pizza. I think I just went up a pants size just typing that.

Craziest thing you’ve ever done?
Hey, we just met? I don’t know you That well yet. Let’s get a conversation going first!

Favorite childhood TV show?
Childhood TV show? Uhh… last time I checked they are all still pretty damn awesome. X-Men: The Animated Series and The Adventures of Brisco County Junior.

What odd jobs have you done?
If I told you then you may have to meet with an unfortunate accident ….

Favorite childhood memory?
Getting up to no good and causing a ruckus with my brothers and the other kids in the neighborhood.

If you could have one super-power, what would it be?
Do you have 24 hours or more to discuss this question in depth? Seriously. This will be a lengthy discussion with a thesis, diagrams, charts, documentaries and there may even be a diorama.

Favorite outdoor activity?
Lounging around and hanging with friends plus going for walks with the fiancé’.

Favorite indoor activity?
Reading and cooking. I can be a total book worm, spending hours curled up with a good book. I’ve just started getting really into cooking and trying new recipe’s. I think it’s going pretty good so far! Fiancé’ hasn’t keeled over … yet.
