The Earl Granville Episode May 08, 2023

Show notes

In this episode of Mr. Curiosity, Joe talks with his former student (sort of?) Earl Granville. You'll hear how Earl's life arc took him from Joe's detention class at Carbondale Area High School in the 1990s to boot camp at Ft. Benning with his twin brother Joe when 9/11 happened.

Earl discusses his nine years in the Army National Guard as an Infantryman, with deployments to Bosnia, Iraq and Afghanistan, where he lost his left leg through to a roadside bomb while on patrol.

STOP! Don’t go feeling sorry for Earl! You’ll hear about healthy ways to battle adversity through the positivity in his messaging, real-life solutions from his own experiences and participating as an inspiration and motivating force through psychical fitness challenges and marathons across the country.

He may even bring out a concrete block tied to a chain to prove his point!? WHAT? Ears open... GO!

The Yuengling Episode Apr 24, 2023

Show notes

In this episode of Mr. Curiosity, Joe tries his best to connect with his man crush buddy Dick Yuengling, the big man of the Yuengling Brewery in Pottsville!

However, we learn that Dick is too busy and may not even know what a podcast is, so in his place are his two awesome daughters, Wendy and Jennifer, chatting with Joe and running many of the Yuengling Company operations!

Learn the history of the Yuengling Brewery, how it has changed and evolved over the years and what is being planned for its forthcoming 200th anniversary as America's Oldest Brewery!! Wowza!

Still, Joe won't let go of his fascination with Dick Yuengling. What's he really like? Does he shovel snow, run a vacuum cleaner, and do yard work? Or, is he more of a highbrow, vacationing in France via private jet, spending money on lavish cars, expensive clothes and fine jewelry? And who was this YOUNG (Yuengling) man who left Germany centuries ago to start it all?

Have a lager, sit back and press play!

Even Dick Yuengling's eating habits are discussed!

Order some take-out, get your ears open and let it PLAY!

The Chris Keating Episode Mar 27, 2023

Show notes

In this Mr. Curiosity episode, Joe talks with WNEP's Chris Keating.

Is he a spoiled brat from a big-shot restauranteur family from Georgia, or just a regular guy with smarts and passion for journalism who found his way from Penn State University to WNEP?

You'll hear about his life journey and how he was in the top 15% of his high school‘s graduation class for being the best-looking, smartest and most athletic—FOR REAL!?!?

Chris is great at what he does, works hard at it, and loves his job, but maybe not as much as his TV meteorologist girlfriend? He might just give it all away for her, or, become Joe's handler and diaper purchaser--WHAT!?

It's all waiting for you, just click PLAY!

Nancy's skin is pachyderm thick, as it should be in the rough, aggressive and opinionated world of talk radio! She's smart, thoughtful, determined and ready to unload her history on your ears! Plug in!
