Let's make this birthday one to remember.

80 years old (Born on October 24, 1944)

Happy Birthday to the incomparable Joy Browne! Another year wiser, and still mastering that signature "tough love" approach with callers. Your no-nonsense advice has been saving folks from their own dramas, one blunt yet kind truth at a time—and boy, does it make great radio.

From diffusing family squabbles to untangling relationship chaos live on air (we're often wondering how you keep your patience!), you've brightened countless days by cutting through nonsense like only Joy can. Keep inspiring us all with your wit and wisdom—here’s wishing you another stellar trip around the sun filled with humor, happiness and endless call-ins!
