HOST: Josie Dye is a fun, fearless female who says what she means and means what she says. She’s got a great sense of humour and can gab about everything from sex and relationships to style and shoes. She’s sexy and daring, but never crass, and her flirty and unapologetic ways make both men and women want to be around her.
It all started in Pickering for Josie. Growing up in a neighbourhood where backyards were huge and friends were plentiful. From an early age Josie knew that broadcasting would be her destiny. Radio became her healthy obsession, with Josie going so far as to taping her favourite DJ’s and re-recording her voice over top.
By the time she was 17, Josie was interning in radio. Close to her dream, but not close enough, Josie would spend her free time singing professionally around town, at one point opening for Jann Arden.
In a few short years Josie moved from one radio station to another, working her way up the broadcasting ladder.
In 2002 Josie was handed the midday announcer’s job at 102.1 The Edge. Seizing this golden opportunity, Josie made it her own, filling her show with not only great music, but engaging her fans with humorous, personal anecdotes and off beat contests. Her ratings have consistently been at the top, thanks in a large part to her strangle hold on listeners, male and female,18 to 35.
Never one to sit still, Josie has made the jump to television on the Cosmo Network where her quick will be put to good use.
When not working, Josie’s passions are peanut butter, sex, sports guys and music….. and trying to combine all four at once.
