Hey, it's Dan Tabirsky.
Last year, I made a show called missing Richard Simmons.
Richard Simmons.
Richard Simmons.
Oh, my God, I love Richard Simmons.
Hi.
Trying to figure out why Richard Simmons decided to stop being Richard Simmons.
And so suddenly, all of a sudden, nothing like an electric car runs on electricity.
Richard Simmons runs on human interaction.
If he's not doing that, then something is going on for him.
It was a wild ride for me, anyway.
And the response to his story, it was kind of bonkers and totally unexpected.
But as much as it was about Richard, it was about the people who were doing the missing his friends and the people who were taking classes at Slimmins, his fitness studio, for decades.
And the people whose lives he changed, often saved as they wrestled with their confusion and grief over why he would ghost them all.
It didn't make any sense.
It was like someone that was so consistent for so long, all of a sudden just stop showing up.
It's just like something has to be really wrong if you all of a sudden just stop showing up, he's alive and you're like, well, why don't you want to be my friend and teach my class?
And we had a great relationship.
Sorry, girl, bye.
That's what he did.
