Daniel cites police statements that say they had been called to the hotel after reports of "an aggressive man who may have been under the effects of drugs and alcohol".

He had a talk show. Not entirely sure how he got it, as he wasn't really camera friendly and definitely learned on the job, but he could be funny. His stand up was funny but he laughed at his own jokes. RIP Mike. 

He was a stand up for years & I guess a CTV executive must have seen as well as liked him. I thought he was a folksy kinda guy in a two day unshaven kinda way.

Bullard was horrible but I watched at times. Who was the guy he had on. Ahh Mitch Hedberg which was interesting cuz such a tiny studio audience. Didn’t think Bullard was a great host tho. Thought he was kinda rude honestly at times to his guests who probably didn’t know what to think at times cuz crowd was not very engaged

Disagree. CTV asked a stand up comic (Bullard) with no experience doing any kind of interviews to host a talk show. Thus, he was out of his element. I thought he had improved a lot when his show was cancelled. It's hard to be entertaining as a host for an hour as everyone associated with the show found out.

Di'Anno had a troubled life and a painful life, Maiden blindsided him when they fired him but he was more punk than metal and bringing Bruce into the band made them the band they are today.

RIP Newmie

Man I loved watching him pitch. So unique and brought such character to the game.

If you haven't watched Fernando Nation (30 for 30), you should. It's a great glimpse into Fernando-mania.
