Y’all might remember Corey Hall from the Gathering recap episodes @scottied has posted over the years on the front page.

Just found out the news when Joel aka Upchuck posted a tribute episode yesterday-

Joel Radio #264: Goodbye Corey Hall

On this show, Joel remembers his friend and co-host Corey Hall who passed away suddenly at age 44. It’s an emotional two hours as Joel talks about Corey’s life and career, how the two met, their successes and failures as podcasters and much more. Hear about their good, but ultimately doomed audition for commercial radio, the favorite shows they did together, what they fought about and what they both loved. There’s other tributes to Corey, too: one from NPR, his family’s obituary and a very nice piece by Adam Graham from The Detroit News. Goodbye, Corey. You will be missed.

I’m really gonna miss the big guy. Rest in peace brother.
