<div id="yiv9387288024">
<div dir="ltr">
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I've been a Joe Frank listener since the 1980s and subscribed to
JoeFrank.com to support Joe and Michal for 13 years from 2006 to the
present.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I noticed that we have all these
great JF resources scattered around the internet (JoeFrank.com, the JF
FAQ, and the JF Wiki), each with summaries for some (but not all) shows
and different interesting tidbits of trivia for some (but not all)
shows, but there is nothing that ties them all together into a coherent
list. And we have discussion forums (joe-frank-list mailing list,
r/joefrank subreddit) but nothing tying those discussions to the
reference sites either.
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So I just spent more than 70 hours creating the Joe Frank Index:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><a rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" href="https://lurkertech.com/joefrank">https://lurkertech.com/joefrank</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>a
non-commercial hobby website (not affiliated with official JoeFrank.com in any way) that serves as a launching point for
exploring shows and series. For each show it provides links to
JoeFrank.com and the JF Wiki as well as the short summaries from
JoeFrank.com and the JF FAQ, and provides show-title-specific search
links to joe-frank-list, r/joefrank, and Google.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It
has a clean, simple interface that lets us sort all the shows by
air date / title / series / type / ID with a consistent set of
information for each show, to support different ways of exploring shows.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It also lets us bookmark permalinks we can share with others to refer to a single show.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
Hope everyone can enjoy this resource.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
If you have any corrections or additions, let me know! <br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The
thing that took so long (other than the programming) is that while each source
resource has tons of info, they also have many many
inconsistencies and omissions. I tried to resolve as many of these as I
could in creating the Index. For example, <br>
</div>
<div><ul><li>Some
parts of JoeFrank.com have Air Dates accurate down to the day, but other
parts of JoeFrank.com have air dates only by year and the air order in
which they list episodes contradicts all the other sources.
I tried to use my best judgment to come up with the most likely show
order. For the early shows I gave preference to the FAQ and Wiki orders.
If anyone knows better, let me know.<br>
<br>
</li><li>
The show descriptions on the JoeFrank.com individual show pages often
(but not always) differ from those on the JoeFrank.com audio/video
streaming pages, so I included both when they differ and supplemented them with the JF FAQ descriptions.<br>
<br>
</li><li>
On all 3 resources, certain info (like Show Type or Play Time or Series)
was either missing or inconsistent on many shows. I tried to fill in
missing info
and resolve inconsistencies so as to create a more useful and consistent
interfaces for newbies and fans interested in Joe Frank. The Wiki has
the concept of a show belonging to more than one type group and if I
have time someday, I will expand the Joe Frank Index to support this
concept.</li></ul>
<div>Thanks to everyone for organizing all these JF resources and thanks to Michal for keeping the legacy going!</div>
