He continued to work with the show, which became the most popular talk show in Sweden, for 14 seasons, eventually becoming the head writer.

In 2010, Josef and some colleagues on Meter Television founded a new talk show in Sweden, Hellenius hörna, with award-winning host David Hellenius. The show is now in its fifth season.

 

During the last couple of years, Josef has developed and worked with a new fundraising show, Tillsammans mot cancer (Together Against Cancer), which has been a huge success in Sweden.
