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.

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.

Thanks. I imagine you’re right - most personalities are just normal people.

Mandy's dad worked for us at the time this all happened. 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.
