Added DiffLines:
* The [[https://youtu.be/nB_dHQsWBcE 'Ghost Tells Us What Christmas Is All About']] video is actually kind of sad to listen to.
* Despite all the hateful things he's said, after a while his {{Narm}}y reactions to the prank calls stop being hilarious and start being rather depressing and sad.
* [[https://youtu.be/OAvK-ccWcjU This video seems to qualify]] for many trolls. Especially so when he sounds so nice and sincere in the first episode, practically apologizing every other sentence. Contrasting to the Ghost today, it's rather sad.
* [[https://youtu.be/2BsDKMgJyM8 The March 1, 2017 show]] counts quite a bit; the poor guy was so ecstatic, then he breaks down about how his infamy on Website/YouTube is pretty much all he's known for. He actually sounds like he's on the verge of tears [[JerkassWoobie Somebody give the guy a hug.]]
* At one point near the end of March 2017, Ghost attempted to stop drinking at the behest of his wife. Needless to say, beer jokes have been flooding in. While his reaction was funny at first, it eventually started to become rather disquieting - You can hear genuine cracks in his armor as he keeps flipflopping between wanting and not wanting a drink and wanting to stay on the wagon. [[https://youtu.be/v15yQWQ-vfc?t=1h31m20s It comes to a bit of a head near the end of the March 29, 2017 show]], [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone where the realization of his alcoholism and how severe it is finally sets in.]] If a listener has ever dealt with any sort of substance dependency (be it themselves or others), this probably strikes some pretty major nerves.

* On April 25th, 2017, his wife got involved in a car accident and Ghost had to cancel the 496th episode. In response of the news, many serious callers and trolls sent well wishes to the host himself.
* The end of the show on BTR, and especially the show tags Ghost used on the show page such as #Goodbye. After 10 years being on this site, it's sad to see Ghost go, but at the same time the show will go on somewhere out there.
