Trivia time: What do Jerry Springer, Cops and The Joe Show have in common? If you said lots of foul language you wouldn't necessarily be wrong, but more importantly they're all part of the 1,000 Episode Club!

ASI’s Joe Haley, who began his weekly Joe Show over 10 years ago, recorded his milestone episode on Thursday, September 13 to much pomp and circumstance. To celebrate the occasion, Joe and I did a live version of Episode No. 1,000 on Facebook. Thankfully, the show went smoothly, so foul language wasn't a concern! Watch the video below: 

Immediately after the live show, Joe was presented with a surprise party that included cake and champagne. (Was he really surprised? Said Joe: "Vinnie, I had no freakin' clue!") See a Facebook gallery here. 

For the 1,000th episode of The Joe Show, let them eat cake!

Then Joe sat down with Social Media Specialist Patrick Kennedy and I to record an exclusive podcast about his big achievement. There are some great bits in here – including the most unusual product he ever showcased – so take a few minutes to listen below: 

One of the topics Patrick and I delve into in our podcast is how far The Joe Show has come since its inception. If you're interested in seeing video evidence that the show has, indeed, come a long, long way, then watch the video below:

The Joe Show Episode 1: Yes, that's really Joe Haley without his goatee.

No historical account of The Joe Show is complete without a bloopers reel, and Joe (like many of you know) is never lost for expletives, as you'll see in the clip below:

Tsk, tsk Joe!

And for those who don't believe Joe Haley actually ate bugs live on Facebook, I present you this:

Mmm, mmm good.
