Off the Mic<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"Josh<\/a>Name:<\/strong> Josh Gomer
\nMajor:<\/strong> Business Management
\nNotable KJHK Contributions:<\/strong>\u00a0Helped with Live @ KJHK sessions, video production work, member of the Content Staff
\nFavorite Color:<\/strong> Light Blue
\nHobbies:<\/strong> Video games, rock climbing<\/p>\n

\n

Ellie Fehlig:<\/strong> Since you said one of your hobbies is playing video games, I’ll start off by asking, what’s your favorite video game?
\nJosh Gomer:<\/strong> Fallout 4 just came out so that’s kind of taking up a lot of my time. It is awesome.<\/p>\n

\"KJHK\"<\/a>EF:<\/strong> Oh, yeah,\u00a0I heard about that. Who, would you say, is your favorite artist?
\nJG:<\/strong> I’d say The Killers just because I’ve liked them\u00a0for so long.
\nEF:<\/strong>\u00a0I love The Killers. What was the first album you bought and when was it?
\nJG:<\/strong> The Killers. That was probably eighth grade, seventh grade, so like six or seven years ago.<\/p>\n

EF:<\/strong>\u00a0Okay, so who or what got you interested in that\u00a0type of music?
\nJG:<\/strong> I didn’t like a lot of the music that was on the radio so I had to go out and find my own music. This was even when I was younger, so that kind of got me to listen to more, I guess, not-so-mainstream music.
\nEF:<\/strong> Okay, so more like KJHK appropriate music?
\nJG:<\/strong> KJ music, yeah.<\/p>\n

EF:<\/strong>\u00a0Alright, what song would you say describes you as a person or explains what you’re like?
\nJG:<\/strong> Oh, geez.
\nEF:<\/strong> Yeah, everyone says this is the toughest\u00a0question.
\nJG:<\/strong> This is a big one. There’s so many songs out there. I’d maybe say “Africa” by Toto. That’s kind of been my theme song for the past few years just ’cause it’s a classic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

EF:<\/strong> Good choice. I like that one. What made you decide to come to KU and join KJHK?
\nJG:<\/strong> Well, I was pretty much born and raised a Jayhawk so that’s the KU side of it. And for KJ, I wanted to do some sort of radio experience. I actually wanted to start DJing but I was scared that I’d mess it up. I figured it’d be safer to go into\u00a0something other than DJing live on the air.
\nEF:<\/strong> More behind the scenes stuff?
\nJG:<\/strong> Yeah, more behind the scenes stuff, which is why joining Content Staff has been\u00a0great.<\/p>\n

EF:<\/strong>\u00a0It is great. What app on your phone do you use the most, assuming you have a Smart phone?
\nJG:<\/strong> I would definitely have to say Reddit, the Alien Blue app because it’s Reddit.<\/p>\n

\"Josh<\/a>
Currently channeling Bob Ross as his spirit animal<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

EF:<\/strong>\u00a0Okay, awesome. Who would play you in a movie adaptation\u00a0of your life?
\nJG:<\/strong> Do they have to be alive?
\nEF:<\/strong> No.
\nJG:<\/strong> Do they have to be an actor?
\nEF:<\/strong> Nope.
\nJG:<\/strong> Alright, then I’d say Bob Ross, the painter.
\nEF:<\/strong>\u00a0Why would you say that?
\nJG:<\/strong> I feel like he’s my spirit animal. But he’s also everyone’s spirit animal, so you know.<\/p>\n

EF:<\/strong>\u00a0Good choice. Do you read? If so, what’s your favorite book?
\nJG:<\/strong> I haven’t read much outside of school but I do remember the Percy Jackson books being super cool. It’s been a while.<\/p>\n

EF:<\/strong> So you like “sci-fi-ish” material?
\nJG:<\/strong> Sci-fi, action, “adventurey” sort of stuff.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

EF:<\/strong> What’s the most random thing you’ve watched on Netflix?
\nJG:<\/strong> The most random thing I’ve watched on Netflix would probably have to be that weird movie,\u00a0Rubber,\u00a0<\/em>about that wheel that went around. It was just a car tire that went around and killed people with its mind or something like that. It was very weird.<\/p>\n

EF:<\/strong> Sounds pretty random. If you were to take a road trip with anyone, who would you want it to be, living or dead?
\nJG:<\/strong> I’d have to say Bob Ross again because, you know, I think that’d be pretty neat.
\nEF:<\/strong> So you’re a big Bob Ross fan, I take it?
\nJG:<\/strong> Yeah.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
