Richard Simmons always gave me the ick, even though by all accounts he seemed like a decent guy and I never heard a bad thing about him. Shannen Doherty, meh. It sucks she died so young. Shelley Duvall seemed like a really cool lady though. Here's a great interview with her from just about a year ago.

I think it's smart of you to steer clear of politics, because why turn off half of your audience, and even though I get sucked into it, I like when people like yourself just stick to the funny. It's nice to just find something funny without the rest of the political BS attached. That being said, everyone isn't going to like your style. Even people who like your style aren't going to like 100% of what you're doing. Just keep doing what makes you laugh and you'll find your way. Fuck the haters.

Some people might think this in poor taste to joke about the deaths of these big names, but I love the way you create a story around them and of course ask for memories of them.

I never really watched any of Doherty's shows and did love Duvall's roles in The Shining and Popeye, it's Richard Simmons that has the most impactful memory for me. If you've never seen his appearance on Whose Line Is it Anyway? do yourself a favor and check it out right now. It's hilariously inappropriate and feels like it's just in line with this story.

Thanks! Glad you liked it! It's challenging to relay the news of a dead celebrity. I feel like I should mention it because I am supposed to relay the news but it's very hard to do it in a way that is tasteful. That video is crazy lol.

You made a coincidence of deaths into a convincing story.
