Bob & Tom Comedian Tim Wilson Dead at 52

Best known for his work with The Bob & Tom Show, comedian Tim Wilson has passed away at the age of 52 from an apparent heart attack.

According to his website, Wilson began his comedy career in college:

While in college he accepted a job as a sportswriter, later convincing his editors to allow him to review local concerts as well; at an Atlanta Rhythm Section date, Wilson passed along his demo tape to the group's drummer, Roy Yeager, who agreed to produce a session at his Georgia studio. The resulting demo went nowhere, however, and so Wilson instead turned to comedy; immediately he earned a devoted local following, and soon after won a Cinemax standup competition.

Bob & Tom co-host Tom Griswold had this to say about the passing of Wilson:

Tim is a brother to all of us at the BOB & TOM Show. He had a comedic voice like no other. He will be terribly missed.
