Disease.

Was so heart breaking listening to the morning show especially since his wife is also a DJ. He missed a lot of shows this year due to his suffering and how he couldnt get help from doctors because the treatments werent working

Yeah I've been loosely following. Listened when he first came back and when he discussed how hard it hit him mentally.

He was/is self aware, but it's been going so bad it likely overwhelms him regardless. And then stuff like short term memory (among other mental and then physical issues) is probably worsening and frustrating him even more.

Natasha has been through a lot. I'm sure he doesn't want her to experience a tragedy, but the disease has messed him up so bad. It sucks a lot, but likely made people more aware of how bad Lyme is if not treated sooner than later.

I sadly think he's gone.

I think so too. Had to stop listening once I got close to work so I wouldnt have such red eyes from tearing it. Just sending prayers that hopefully he can be found alive somewhere

Gave today's show a listen.
Something I can't make sense of is:
Graham says he's 27, the executive producer.
Worked with JV since he was 18, and referenced it as 20-something years ago.

Selena is just 26, and has been working with JV since 2011. This one's a little believable because I think they had Krystal and someone else on as interns at a similar age.

Maybe they're just lost in the math. I can respect the come-up though if they're both that young. Have families, and I think other businesses going on.
