I feel sorry for the guy, but he sounded like potential suicide or someone who wants to take out a few people along the way. Never heard a call like that on Finebaum or any call in show before. I hope the dude gets help.

That's one of the reasons I started the thread. I was half listening, but I heard him say things like :"I'm in a bad place, messed up in the head, don't know where to turn, not putting up with it anyone (referring to a roommate).". Just wondering if someone can add some additional details.

Paul said he was gonna have a friend call him. As I began writing this, Paul just stated it was a disturbing call.

damn, I wonder if they cut it from the podcast. They post it a few hours after the show.

If that’s who I think he is, pretty sure he is on the spectrum. It’s been a while since I tuned into Finebaum but fairly certain that is who I am thinking of. Not that it makes what he said any better or worse but could explain some of it

I was able to rewind on my Xm app and he is upset that people are dictating what's best for him and he feels like he has no input on his own life. He is arguing with his sister about where to live and his mom wants him to move back in with her and he just wants to get his own apartment.
He stated that if he keeps living with either his sister or mom he won't get any better. Says he currently lives in San Antonio.
Says if he goes back to his mom's house he is going to snap and punch her husband.
Says he's eat up with hate and bitterness and keeps saying he's not right in the head and keeps saying he wants to get an apartment and is open to a roommate, but wants to get away from sister and mom.

Do people know there are actual mental health hotlines and Paul fricking Finebaum isn't one of them?

And he said all of this on a sports show? Sounds like he needs a therapist.
