About this listen
In this episode, we let Joe talk about his retirement after 75 years at The Free Press. Listen, kid, ol’ Joe’s been runnin’ this newsroom since ink came in buckets! They say he’s got printer’s ink in his veins — and decaf coffee in his arteries! Guy edits copy like a surgeon with a hangover. Clean, precise, and somehow, someone still ends up in traction! Back in my day, the boss didn’t need no Google Docs — he just yelled your rewrite across the room and hoped you were fast enough to duck the typewriter ribbon! Y’know, I once saw Joe take a five-word lede and turn it into a three-part series. Now that’s journalism, sweetheart. They say he’s so old-school, his spellcheck’s a Webster’s from 1912. The man still thinks AP Style stands for Always Panic. Every time he says, ‘Let’s keep it tight,’ a feature writer loses their wings.
