The Dave Hooker Show

[WillisWG]

I simply don't understand especially in the age of Uber why anyone would get drunk in get behind the wheel. I've lost 4 family members and 3 friends over the years to drunk drivers.

I've also enjoyed more than my fair share of alcohol and I've never gotten behind the wheel drunk or even buzzed. It's such a reckless, selfless act

Yep but unfortunately unless they were passed, I have never met a drunk who didn't think they couldn't drive

Caleb Calhoun announced today, 10/09/25, would be his last day doing the show. Caleb did not go into a lot of detail but he implied the current situation was unsustainable for him moving forward.

I’m going to make a giant assumption and say that it was something to do with money or lack there of that forced Caleb to make a decision. I believe he liked doing the show and would have continued it if it was financially feasible.

I will also speculate that Dave has been unavailable due to having to serve some time for multiple DUI’s. I hope he can continue his career and revive the show once he gets things squared away. I hope this does not set him back too far.

Dave and Caleb were entertaining and the live chat made the show very fun for me and most of us who watched regularly. They were both very good about keeping up with the chat and making the audience feel like participants. In my experience, the stream with live chat and real time response was more fun than any call in show. To my knowledge, no one else has been able to do the live chat this well, either.

I have never been a Hooker fan but I pray and hope he can get it together. Prayers for his recovery and happiness.

The people who cause the accidents aren't people who have had 4-5 beers or a few glasses of wine over a couple of hrs. It's massively disproportional to the people who are WAY over the limit.

Yeah, those people aren’t causing accidents by and large, it’s the people whose BAC is 2 and 3x that number

about 16% of drivers in fatal crashes who test positive for alcohol fell below the 0.08 g/dL BAC legal limit. About half of the drivers in fatal crashes that test positive for alcohol have BACs of 0.15 g/dL or higher. The prevalence of positive BAC levels peak at the 0.14 g/dL levels and steadily decline as BAC levels increase above 0.19 g/dL.

like I said impaired is impaired 190 lb male drinks 5 beers over 2 hours period is over .08 bac, to be more precise it closer to .11 bac
