Have you ever seen a baseball? That makes sense, you probably haven't. You listen to the Groovy Helpline, so you probably don't watch sports. But even if you have looked at baseball, you probably don't know who Mendoza is. That's because Mendoza was bad at baseball. Firstname Mendoza is famed for being a below average player, and so when a player is bad at baseball and have bad stats, they are considered below the Mendoza Line - the minimum standard for being okay at baseball.

He, typically, is a loud and unique guest who brings down the standard of radio that he is featuring on. So, our minimum standard of quality is called the Josh Line, as he often brings us below it.
