Why he might be annoying:

    He insisted he was not an anti-vaxxer while refusing to get the COVID-19 vaccine and spreading the same misinformation as anti-vaxxers.
    He compared the vaccination status badges worn by health care workers to the yellow stars Jews were forced to wear by the Nazis.
    He blogged, 'What are my odds of dying from Covid if I do get it? Probably less than one percent.' (December 12, 2020)
    When he was diagnosed with COVID-19, he said it would not be a problem, but he might take a day off from his show as 'a precaution.'

Why he might not be annoying:

    He said about his radio show, 'It gives me a way to vent without having to go to therapy.'
    He frequently made Talker Magazine's list of the 100 most important radio talk show hosts.
    After he was hospitalized with COVID-19, he told his family he regretted not getting the vaccine and not encouraging other people to do so as well.
