RIP Thread

I forgot all about Wally and this show, haven't seen anything about it in years.
I first saw it some 35 years ago one night. Didn't think much of it then. The show aired on this channel that was mostly seen on low-power UHF channels and somewhere on satellite, basic old shit and mail order advertising...
 
Damn, she’s not pretending to be dead any more. RIP. I really liked L7 back in the day.
IIRC Tubi has a doco about them (I think it’s even called ‘Pretend we’re dead’) that ended with their last album being bulldozed into landfill because they couldn’t afford to pay for the duplicating, packaging and distribution.


Noooooo fuckkkkkk! I hope not. That said if he has my collected copies of Answer Me! mag just went up in value.

I've seen nothing outside the blog post you linked
Sadly it appears to be real. Vale Jim boy, you were a real one.

I've seen nothing outside the blog post you linked and a blog post from his biggest obsessed A-log stalker child mentioning his death. I figure the Wikipedia jannies would be all over smugly changing his status to "deceased" if it really happened. Are there any other sources for this news?
Compound Censored has put all Goad cahntent on their front page. https://www.censored.tv
The guy who republished ANSWER me! and published Gun Fag Manifesto has also confirmed it. https://mailchi.mp/2c9c79b50e6e/read-but-not-answered-kevin-i-slaughter-on-the-passing-of-jim-goad
Resident Goad haydur Matt Forney also posted about Goad on his Xitter, saying he thinks it was a suicide. It wouldn't surprise me, honestly, but Goad also had health problems.

Xitter (Archive). Look for The Memphis Micro in the comments.
Second Xitter mentioning possible suicide (Archive)

Ayy-lawgs and Hollerin' Hogs paying tribute to you on Shitter. A Kiwi-worthy sendoff. Sneed eternally, Jim.

The entire family is deaf? Fucking how?
Congenital deafness is a thing. According to a different article I read it goes back 4 straight generations on the dad's side which makes me think either they're really, really unlucky, or they're part of that weird ass deaf sub-culture that does that shit deliberately because of muh deaf culture and heritage.

I knew Jim, but not lately. He's been sick a long time, shrinking his world as a sick man does. (Me too.)

Knowing it would make people happy would be enough to stop him from killing himself in almost any circumstance. Actual last resort or emergency, sure. He was decisive.

Very important man. Few are old enough to remember, but none of us would be here—etc.

He can play himself out:

 
RIP John C. Dvorak, No Agenda show host and columnist.

This made me sad. I have a backlog of a few episodes to listen to and John is the highlight of the show for me. Now I know after the few episodes I have left it just won't be the same.

Just last week he made me chuckle in the crew lounge while I was doing paperwork and prompted me to "hit someone in the mouth" (told the guy sitting across from me about the show when he asked what I was listening to).
