A Senior Fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations and a military historian, Max Boot is a regular contributor to the Wall Street Journal. His new book is: Invisible Armies: An Epic History of Guerrilla Warfare from Ancient Times to the Present

.

Joe talks to people on the radio for a living. In addition to countless impressive human "gets" - he has talked to a lot of Muppets. Joe grew up in Philadelphia, has been on the area airwaves for more than 25 years and currently lives in Washington County, NY with his wife, Kelly, and their dog, Brady. And yes, he reads every single book.
