shit is gettin grimy on here now... this past Tuesday Captain Phil's son Jake revealed to him that he was an addict (he turned his back when he whispered what it was to his dad, & Discovery muted it, but the general consensus is he was admitting being addicted to meth again).. Phil was already lookin close to death before he revealed it... I think that was the final nail in his coffin.
This coming Tuesday's episode is when he has his massive stroke, & they were filming right when it happened..
