DJ Joel was born of a Jackal
on the 6th minute of the 6th day of the 6th month, 1966.
His good looks and hot Latin
sensuality are attributed to his healthy living and
excessive consumption of celery.
Born in New Zealand, he
spent most of his life in Warrnambool, Victoria.
After graduating high
school, he completed an apprenticeship in Prepress/Graphic
Design and studies in Electronic Publishing.
He did a brief stint in
politics as the Federal Minister for Poking Dead Things
with a Stick, before doing a world tour of Europe with the
Captain and Teneal. (Teneal was OK, but the Captain was a
real bastard!).
Joel's hobbies include
taking every opportunity to see a live band (especially
the Meanies!), playing bass and attempting to play
6-string.
After the whirlwind success
of his first television series "Nightrider", Joel battled
with drug addictions for the better half of the 80's,
before realising that he was drinking non-alcoholic
cocktails. He then went Cold Turkey.
His love affair with radio
began in high school, when he did a community radio
program with a few friends, playing music, discussing
current issues and making fart noises.
After the "incident" with
the goat, he moved to Port Douglas to start a religious
sect devoted to Ernest Borgnine.
Once that fell through he
approached the powers that be at Radio Port Douglas and
gave them an offer they couldn't refuse. They refused,
stating that they didn't have any use for 45 kilograms of
cheese, but then later offered him a radio slot.
Joel is now enjoying the sun
and lifestyle of Port Douglas with his lovely girlfriend
Juliette and his obese guinea pig, Gandalf.
