When I first heard the news, my heart immediately sank not only for him, but for the loss that was felt by all of his close friends whom I admire so much like Scott. Like others have said, Harris' passing hit me so much harder than any other celebrity has. It's probably partially because of listening to him talk about his addiction and recoveries, and because he was such a genuinely funny and nice guy.
I really appreciated hearing Scott talk so candidly about it and couldn't have been more happy to have had one more opportunity to get a new podcast with Harris. It will certainly be an episode that stays with me for awhile. But I still hate Phish.
