MTV Real World Miami Cast Member
 
Dean S. Planet: What's new with you?
Joe: ALL'S GOOD, MAN. JUST MOVED BACK TO NYC ON A MORE FULL-TIME BASIS NOW THAT I STARTED A MASTERS IN SOCIAL WORK PROGRAM AT NYU AND WANT TO BE CLOSER TO MY AILING DAD IN BROOKLYN (HE'S 86 NOW - I AM THE LAST OF 8 KIDS). I MOVED OUT OF MY PLACE IN CALI LAST MONTH RIGHT AFTER I FILMED MY NONPROFIT KIDS-TEACHING-KIDS FOUNDATION'S "LEARN TO HIP HOP VOLUME 3" IN LA -- I PLAN TO DO THE EDITING HERE IN NEW YORK. MY FOUNDATION (WWW.JOESWORLD.ORG) AND I PRODUCE, DIRECT, AND FUND KIDS-TEACHING-KIDS STUFF NOW, SO THAT'S BECOME A BIG PART OF MY DAYS.
Dean S. Planet: What did you think of Flora's Playboy pics?

Joe:  NOTHING

Dean S. Planet: Were you surprised that she posed?

Joe:  NO

Dean S. Planet: Is there a particular Real Worlder you would like to see in Playboy?

Joe:  NO

Dean S. Planet: Do you still aspire to become a porn star? I could make some calls for you...

Joe:  NO 

Dean S. Planet: Do you keep in touch with any Miami cast members? What's going with Melissa & Sarah?
Joe:  SARAH AND I DO KEEP IN TOUCH AND SEE EACH OTHER RELATIVELY OFTEN. FOR THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS, I'VE SPENT HALF OR MORE OF MY TIME IN CALIFORNIA AND TRAVELING ALL OVER, AND SARAH HAS BEEN A GREAT FRIEND AND CONSTANT IN ALL THAT.
Dean S. Planet: Still talk to Nicki? Do you regret that your relationship with her was broadcasted to millions of people?
Joe:  I OCCASIONALLY BUMP INTO NIC IN NYC - WE LAST SAW EACH OTHER A FEW MONTHS AGO HERE AND IT WAS AMICABLE. WE BOTH STILL GET A DAILY DOSE OF 'HOW'S S/HE DOING, ARE YOU STILL MARRIED, ETC....," AND PROBABLY WILL FOR LIFE, NO MATTER WHO WE ARE WITH AT THE TIME.

Joe's old crib in Miami

The Miami Cast
Dean S. Planet: Do you think the Real World will go on forever?
Joe:  YUP, AT LEAST IN RERUNS...
Dean S. Planet: Do you watch the show now?
Joe:  NOPE  
 
Dean S. Planet: What do you think of all these reality shows?
Joe:  WAY TOO MANY -- SOME ARE JUST WONDERFUL PASSIVE ENTERTAINMENT TO ME, OTHERS ARE JUST PLAIN WRONG. IT'S ALL OUT OF CONTROL.
Dean S. Planet: In your book "Livin' In Joe's World", you said that you basically want nothing to do with the show or MTV. Do you still feel this way?
Joe:  I'VE LEARNED THAT IF YOU DON'T STEP UP TO THE MIC, SOMEONE IS GOING TO DO IT IN YOUR PLACE AND SAY SOMETHING OFF BASE, SO YOU GOTTA MAKE CHOICES BASED ON SPECIFIC SITUATIONS AND DETAILS...AND YOU GOTTA READ/EDIT CONTRACTS BEFORE YOU SIGN ANYTHING!
Dean S. Planet: Why couldn't you guys get a business started? You were business major for God's sake.
Joe:  THAT WAS ONE OF THE MOST FRUSTRATING THINGS IN MY LIFE AS CHAPTER 4 OF MY BOOK DISCUSSES IN GREAT DETAIL. JUST GLAD I NEVER SIGNED TO ANY BUSINESS THING WITH THE ENTIRE GROUP.
Dean S. Planet: Do you think that MTV attempts to use its media power to normalize homosexuality in their programming?
Joe:  THE MEDIA, IN GENERAL, USES THEIR POWER TO DO MANY THINGS...  
Dean S. Planet: Do you think Pedro from Real World San Fran was exploited by MTV?
Joe:  YES  
Dean S. Planet: Would you do it all over again?
Joe:  NO
