Oh man. I used to listen to him overnight when I would unload trucks at Home Depot. Sad day.

Heard this on my way to the gym this morning. Sad day for sure. He caught a bunch of shit from most of the other SCORE guys, but this dude's memory was unbelievable. He was a legend. I remember from WLS as well years ago.

I didn't realize he had the level of credentials he did.
I always thought of him as a semi-lovable crackpot.
Also thought he was a bit younger than he was.
He was definitely iconic and it's sad to see him go.

Seems pretty shabby.
Wouldn't 25 on air hrs a week be considered full time (with off air prep time assumed)?
Do other hosts get insurance? Or are their salaries high enough they're expected to handle it themselves?
