It must have been about 7PM and, yes, I had moved to doing mornings for iHeartRadio in what we call our home market in my company. I remember that schedule, but I think I got up earlier than you, he said.

As a boy, Joe got hooked on news listening to the radio.
“We would listen to the NBC World News Roundup, and I just thought that sounded like the neatest thing in the world to do,” he said.
All of that life experience helped shape the man and the journalist that he became. Former News4 anchor Barbara Harrison remembers Joe Krebs, who died Tuesday of pancreatic cancer.
His stint in the Navy put him at ease when he reported from a fighter jet.
“And to be able to pull back on the stick and have that plane go up and up and up, and he said look over your head and you could see the contrail coming around as you make a complete circle, it was just thrilling,” he said.
