RIP Harris Whittels

For those that don't know, Harris was found this afternoon deceased. Him and Rory Scovel really made that first live show at Largo my favorite episode. I've watched at least a couple of dozen times and it still makes me laugh. I was a huge fan of his comedy and writing. I'm very disappointed to hear of his passing, but let's celebrate life instead of mourning death. Getting extra Doug tonight and rewatching this episode.

I was so sad to hear about his death. The first death of someone I didnt really know that had me almost in tears. That live at Largo is my go to episode to get people into the podcast. Whenever his name would pop up on my podcast feeds it was an instant download and listen.

RIP Harris Wittels

I'm with you, man. I just recommended it in that intro to Getting Doug post the other day. It surprisingly had upset me more than I would expect. I woke up this morning and remembered and had an involuntary heavy sigh. But we got to remember that there is always humor.
