Irish Jo

Jo is here to keep you company early in the morning. She'll play you chilled out tunes and have a chat from 5am on weekend mornings.

Hometown before MK – Another country Ireland, Wicklow (its known as the garden of Ireland) #grassroots 😂

Best Thing About MK – Postcodes, I’m bad at directions.

When not on radio I like – To spend time with my family, go to the gym or you’ll find me in a bar on a Thursday with my bestie Gill (she’s in sales, has a great love life and is fun to listen to)

My first job was – Why I realised I want to end up working for myself.

My favourite artists we play are – Rihanna and Beyoncé.

If I won The MKFM Mystery Voice I would – Hope Darren never found out who told me.

Favourite Food – Edible pasta.

My tipple is – Porn Star Martini, again this is because of Gill.

I dislike - Milk, except in my tea.

Apart from my show, my favourite MKFM show is – Greg Burnet, sorry Darren and Lia but let’s face it, I’m always late for work and miss most of yours!
