[joe-frank-list] Fwd: KCRW idea: End of year thoughts about joe

[Joe Frank]

Had to chime in --

While at KCRW Joe was paid a /very (very) /small fraction of this amount 
to produce new shows each week.
(He quite often personally paid actors / musicians, and more to produce 
the kind of work he wanted)
