A reporter at NewsNation wrote that while it is reported “he suffered a heart attack — his death remains a mystery.”

In the leadup to his death, he had said on his podcast that he was not feeling well but that he had improved a bit.

His grieving wife tweeted her shock at his death.

I’m in complete shock. https://t.co/OB3IzOxGlE
