I'd like to know the identity of a guest whose appearance was cut short.

It was about 1-2 years ago. I think--but I'm not certain--that Art Bell was the host. The guest was male, and he was on to discuss psychedelic drugs. He had a hard time speaking; he kept pausing in the middle of every sentence. While listening to the show, I wondered if he had drug-induced brain damage. The host eventually said the guest was sick and cut the interview short, probably turning the show into an open-lines night. Thanks.

I remember listening to that and thought the guy had a speech impediment or something. I think his name is Rick Strassman.

Thank you, Camper. I've since heard other clips of Strassman, and he talked normally.
