I met Joey in 2016 while researching the book on Tommy Bartlett. Joey was helpful and historically important, being a "warehouse" of knowledge and experience. I will never forget riding in the show with Joey driving the Malibu ski boat. I have a new favorite ski boat driver of all time now. Jon Broderick Author
