Don't listen to radio so had no idea who he was. Sounds like he did a lot of good and hope he is in a better place at the present.

I could see suicide or OD, and I hope it’s neither. He had a lot going on health-wise and it seems to have taken a toll on him. He was barely on radio anymore. Never was my cup of tea, but I would switch to him when every other station was on commercial.
He did a lot of fundraising for LEOs. Wasn’t he eventually cleared of the domestic violence deal? Yea, the woman who made the claim on him came forward through a family member or attorney that she wanted a car and cash, he refused and she made the claim. Semi knowing him off the air, he was like many in the public light, just a normal guy who put on a show and became a persona. I can tell you for a fact that Guy Fieri is nothing like what you see on tv... same type of thing.

The house and the corvette and everything came after. Sounded like a really bad deal from what I heard. RIP to a guy that def did some good for sure.

I never cared for talk radio. But he was funny, so I didn't mind listening to him.
