Bean

I've had a few communications with Bean from the Kevin & Bean show in Los Angeles over the years (he is a HUGE Landecker fan), and I've always found him to be incredibly nice. However, I had no idea he was THIS nice. He recently donated a kidney to one of the engineers at his station. From Tom Taylor's column this morning...

Gene “Bean” Baxter should be back on the morning show at L.A.’s KROQ today, following surgery where he donated a kidney to CBS engineer Scott Mason. The Orange County Register says the transplant-donor surgery went well and that Baxter says his friend “looks ten years younger, [and is] smiling, laughing, happy.” Baxter may be a pound or two lighter (minus one of his two kidneys), but some things don’t change. Bean aims to “be back in time for the Miss Double D-cember pageant.”
