Sad news coming from the world of good foods, good stories and just being who you are.

It's a silent killer. Doesn't discriminate, doesn't show exclusive symptoms.

He had me laughing plenty of nights. Sadly it seemed he was only laughing on the outside.

Maybe he went into hiding. Maybe he is serving up a good time and making the devil laugh or maybe he wanted to do a show for parts unknown: heaven or hell.

Either way to bad and it's sad.

Get help. Plenty of help out there.

Maybe he was murdered.

This is his girlfriend, two weeks ago speaking at the Cannes film festival. https://youtu.be/2PUCE0i94Lo

I dont rule that out. Chester was murdered I believe. Who knows with Hollywood and these sex cults. Who knows what anyone knows nowadays.

Anything is possible. I'll look at it this afternoon

More likely that his new found low-carb no-sugar diet caused his body's overall stress levels to rise (cortisol/prolactin/estrogen/serotonin), along with his increased exercise and possible prescription medication for blood pressure or even depression, which he has talked openly about before.

When older guys who aren't obese lose weight, it's rarely a sign of positive health.

Also, in the last few years he divorced his second wife, with which he has a teenage daughter, and started dating Argento, who is also 20 years his junior with a very volatile past. Chaos.

I fucking love this man. The world is shittier without him.

It was death by hanging guys....

That's why I started my post with "more likely" (than murder).

But the real question is, why did you choose to miss or misrepresent that?

Heard he had substance abuse challenges and depression. Mental health challenges are hard enough but when you add substance abuse to that mix......I believe that is a tall order for anyone to handle....

Yet, the fact remains that his girlfriend was threatening to expose at entire industry. Don't forget that lil nugget.

To be fair Asia Argento is hardly high-profile, and Bourdain, although very opinionated, wasn't a sh*t-stirrer publicly.

Having said that, I did just come across something odd posted yesterday:

Was Anthony Bourdain About to Expose an Elite Pedophile Ring?

https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/anthon...lite-ring/

How did this get enough traction to warrant a full post on Snopes within a day of his death?

Also odd....

Quote:Bourdain: Hillary is CLEARLY not responsible for anything Weinstein Thats screamingly obvious. Her response to questions though has been uninspiring

Or from the other side.....

Quote:Bourdain: This isn’t about Daniels at ALL. It’s about taking a hard look at the Prez’s longtime closest associate/fixer and who he really is and what his real business is.

So if he had enemies, they were probably on both sides.
