Huell was one of my dearest buddies at Southern Methodist University in 1965-66, and we laughed our way together through many events. He was both distant and charismatic, overflowing with charm and spontaneous laughter. Yet he remained an enigma, one whose life I will always remember and miss. In the early 1980’s during a one night visit with Huell as I returned from California to Albuquerque, I was a guest at his apartment. I was present with him as he filmed a live interview for Califnia’s Gold. WHAT a memory! And what joy I have as I can now preserve those memories visually online. Yes, he was himself “gold”.

My wife and I used to frequent Palm Springs. One evening at a restaurant, I come back to the table and she says, “You just missed Huell Howser, he just walked by with some friends and was waiving at people that recognized him!” I was upset that I didn’t get to see him. Where was I? In the restroom trying to fix a toilet that would not stop running. My concern for the establishment’s toilet made me lose a great opportunity! A freaking toilet! 😡

Mind you, I don’t think he was consciously trying to gin it up for the camera, but a big part of his being ON was being in the moment(he never rehearsed), and when “up” the accent burbled out of him. He was definitely not an “exclaimer” in everyday life.

@Chris Haugh nah man, cults are the ones that have shifting dates for when the thing they predicted to happen will happen instead when it doesn't come to pass on the first or second or third dates (is March 20 the new date?). Masks are proven to stop the spread of airborne particles so you don't spread disease to your grandma or elderly neighbor when they go to the supermarket, you know, the most at risk folks in our communities. Remember, masks help YOU stop spreading if you're asymptomatic, they don't prevent you from getting infected so much by some coughing or sneezing maskless asshole which is why if everybody co-operates it actually works. Your beef is that you don't like being told what to do and can't accept that somebody smarter may just know better. I believe that you're a smart individual that's looking for something important to believe and if you only apply just a little critical thinking and get out of your echo chamber you might figure it out. Just don't think that spreading lies about masks is consequence free.

I enjoyed occasionally tuning into these shows when on. There were a few really strange buildings and places that Huell profiled that were amazing. I have heard people make fun of Huell. Adam Carrola, who I typically enjoy, had quite a few episodes mocking the guy that were actually cruel, even after he died. But this down-home, tell it like it is persona that Huell had added to the fun. He would get in quite a lot of detail, which I think is what makes the shows so interesting, but some people complain about that. Screw them. If I am going to "visit" something, it is nice to see extra depth and detail. This guy was an original and was enjoyable to watch.
