Joseph John "Pags" Pagliarulo (born August 1, 1966), better known as Joe Pags, is an American, nationally syndicated, conservative TV/radio talk show host.
Born in Long Island, New York, Pagliarulo began his radio career in 1989 in Palm Beach County, Florida, then worked primarily in television news, serving in many roles and eventually as the main anchor at WEYI in Saginaw/Flint, Michigan (1994–1996), morning and noon anchor at WWMT in Kalamazoo/Grand Rapids, Michigan (1996–1997), main anchor, managing editor and eventually news director at WLAJ in Lansing/Jackson, Michigan (1997–2002) and main anchor at WRGB in Schenectady, New York (2002–2005). During and after his time at WRGB he also served as talk show host at WHAM in Rochester, New York and WXDX (now WDTW) in Detroit, Michigan.
In 2005, Pagliarulo returned to talk radio and began his daily talk show titled The Joe Pags Show that was first heard on iHeartMedia's flagship talk radio station WOAI 1200 in San Antonio as well as KPRC-Houston, KEX-Portland, KHOW-Denver, and KTLK-Minneapolis. After Andy Dean's departure from America Now in 2014, Pagliarulo's daily show was broadcast to the 130 America Now affiliates for almost a year until a full-time replacement host was selected. After the America Now fill-in period ended, Pagliarulo's show began syndication through Compass Media Networks, and is now heard on over 50 stations as of June 2016. His daily show is broadcast live from 6-9 PM EST, and on tape delay in some of his syndicated markets. He also hosts a weekend nationally syndicated radio talk show through Premiere Networks, titled The Weekend with Joe Pags.
