Top 10 Jobs That Sound Fake but Are Real
Episode 522
Thursday, 6 November, 2025
Welcome to Simple Joe. I’m glad you’re here. I kick off with a wild winter fact: the world’s largest snowflake reportedly measured 15 inches wide and 8 inches thick in 1887 at Fort Keogh, Montana, and I wonder out loud how anyone verified it back then. Then I welcome you to Simple Joe for Friday, November 7, 2025, share the weekend weather for Bridgton, Maine (cool, a little wet today; warmer and cloudy Saturday; breezy and cooler Sunday) and Cincinnati, Ohio, and roll through birthdays for Billy Graham, Joni Mitchell, Johnny Rivers, Christopher Knight, Adam DeVine, Gage Munroe, and Erika Alexander. In “This Day in History,” I highlight the first air-freight flight (Dayton to Columbus, 1910), Jeannette Rankin becoming the first woman elected to Congress (1916), Lewis and Clark sighting the Pacific (1805), and Magic Johnson’s 1991 HIV announcement. For celebrations, I riff on National Bittersweet Chocolate with Almonds Day, Notary Public Day, and World Smile Day. The feature is a fun countdown of Top 10 Jobs That Sound Fake but Are Real — from Professional Sleeper and Dog Surfing Instructor to Snake Milker and Professional Mourner — including what it actually takes to qualify for each gig. I wrap with my classic reminder to make the day epic and choose memories over stuff. Email me at joe@thesimplejoe.com or send me a text at 513.399.6468. Just say hi, I would love to hear from you.
