This is such a bizarre story. If anyone has any other updates let us know!

I am sure this is all speculation but this is what I heard on the Howard Stern Show.

He stopped production on his show because he is doing some type of self evaluation. Dave is Muslim and it is beleived that he might have fallen deeper into the religion and is now second guessing what is good for his religious beliefs and what isn't...like raunch comedy.

im prob wrong but i thought it was about holding up production for a contract renewal

something like 50 million for next season is on the line

I have heard two things and I don't know how valid either of them are:

I heard his show was cancelled for the 3rd season and he didn't handle the news very well and I also heard that:

He couldn't take his celebrity status. Random people approaching him on the street and making impersonations of him were driving him crazy.

Like I said, no clue how valid either of those are.

I think all the pressure got to him and he cracked $50 mil is a lot of pressure

I heard this too. I also heard he may have a drug problem and/or is having mental issues. Its a real shame; I love the show and God knows if it will ever be on again.

I was reading an article on this earlier today....he didn't have a drug problem and he's not in a mental hospital, there were things he needed to sort out...like people in his life changing drastically because of the $$ he now has...he actually sounded like one of the more down to earth celebrities...I wish him well, he's a funny guy!
