On May 21, 2026, racing superstar Kyle Busch passed away from pneumonia that turned into sepsis. His death rocked not just the racing world. People from every walk of life were rocked by the fact that this man with a young family was taken far too soon. Shawn and Howie talk about the impact of his loss and they talk about the night that Owen Hart was lost in an accident at a pay-per-view wrestling event in Kansas City in 1999. They talk about the losses of other sporting stars like Kobe Bryant and Payne Stewart and how they got the deaths of stars on to the air as they were actually working in radio and television. It's a wide-ranging and genuine conversation.
