Joe Toste is a leading podcaster in the public sector
Joe Toste is the founder and host for The Public Sector Show by TechTables. In the Public Sector, Joe is known for his ability to “make CIO’s look great” while spotlighting the issues that CIOs and technology leaders care about most.
What started with a humble camera and tripod at the CES conference in Las Vegas (and without a lapel mic! haha!) grew into a full fledged passion for sharing what connects the public sector community through stories of successes, challenges, and reflections.
In addition to podcasting, Joe coaches boys’ basketball at his alma mater, Dos Pueblos High School. Joe lives in Santa Barbara, California with his wife, Jamie, their high school daughter, Anabelle, and their preschool son, Jack.
Fun fact: Joe is frequently (and lovingly) referred to as “The Podcast Guy!” at Public Sector conferences.
