Remembering Gene Wilder: ODO 34
from Odd Dad Out
What's the deal 2016!? Stop killing our legends! I know I'm not the first to say it, but this has become the year the legends died. The loss of Gene Wilder this week just pushes that point home. Unless you've been living under a rock for the last week, you've probably heard that, legendary comic actor, Gene Wilder passed away this week. Of course, when an artist of his caliber passes away, the world collectively mourns. I've mentioned before that I am a very sensitive person. I realize that here it may seem like my only emotion is angry smartass. But I really truly have feelings, all of them. Now I'm not gonna sit here and cry in my cornflakes, as the young kids say. For me, especially with comedians, I try to "remember the laughs not the loss."Subscribe and Rate on iTunesAndroid users try the Google Play Music AppFollow me on Twitter @odddadoutSupport the "Odd Dad Out Podcast" and "Mom and Dad Cuss" at patreon.com/odddadoutCheck out "What's Happening With the NewMan" at whatshappeningwiththenewman.podbean.com Hosted on Acast.
