Well now I gotta dig. I'm fairly sure I have a break of John from W4...country. I have to look.

This sucks ...

I listened to John everywhere growing up.

Glad to pass it along. I've noticed that online profiles stay online indefinitely if no one manages them. I see that the Linkedin profile for a broadcaster I knew who passed away over 3 years ago remains up as if they were still at work. That adds to the sadness of their loss.

I also plan to listen to the podcast linked to earlier - from the description, it sounds good.

Ron Robinson’s “Radio Dayz!” has the entire interview with John O’Leary that he did a few months ago. Radio Dayz! Is available on Google Podcasts and iHeart. Also, John interviewed Ron more recently in a podcast as well.

any follow up to this, motive?

[riggs]

Don't know the motive but the picture they showed (I am guessing the mug shot), the way his eyes looked and the scratches all over his face, that he killer was probably a meth user and I'm not sure much of a motive is needed if someone is outta their head with that shit.

and this was the roommate?
at age 67 he was living in highland park with a meth roommate?....

Listened to the second half of the John O' Leary podcast from Radio Daze today. It was entertaining, and great to hear him again, but bittersweet to hear him speaking of the future with optimism.
