Charlie Kirk's podcast and radio program, The Charlie Kirk Show, aired an emotional episode on Friday (September 12), leaving Kirk's chair empty to honor the late host. Kirk, a prominent figure in the conservative movement and founder of Turning Point USA, was tragically killed on Wednesday while speaking to students at Utah Valley University during the first stop of his "Prove Me Wrong: The American Comeback" tour.
The show's executive producer, Andrew Kolvet, expressed the team's desire to commemorate their "friend and dear brother."
Kolvet emphasized the significance of leaving Kirk's chair empty, stating, "Here we are because Charlie would want us to be here. He would be upset if we weren’t here."
"And of course, we have left his chair open and empty because no one will ever fill it, nobody could ever hope to," he continued. "We want to honor him, and we want to be inspired by him."
