Who is Jeffrey Vandergrift?
Jeffrey Vandergrift is a well-known American radio jockey. He has been in the news because he went missing recently and is at high risk.
Along with co-hosts Dan “Elvis” Lay and Lance “Hollywood” Otani, he co-founded the Doghouse program on KYLD, currently known as Wild 94.9. It evolved to be the most listened-to morning radio program in the Bay Area, mostly as a result of the on-air antics, including prank calls, pranks, and filthy current events comedy.
However, after an on-air incident, Lay and Jeffrey Vandergrift moved to New York. But, in recent years, Vandergrift and his wife, model Natasha Yi, returned to the Bay Area. Vandergrift then started presenting his own program, the JV Show, on Wild 94.9.
He took a long break starting in 2021, which sparked a lot of rumors about why he was gone. However, when he made an emotional comeback to the airwaves in April 2022, he disclosed he had been diagnosed with a severe case of Lyme disease, which had prompted him to take a leave.
He is currently 54 years old.
Where did he go?
The present whereabouts of Jeffrey Vandergrift are unknown. He might be at high risk as he was suffering from Lyme disease, which caused brain fog and other symptoms.
JV tried to commit suicide a few months ago. He was found in the garage by his wife, Natasha Yi while sleepinng in the car. After it was determined that Lyme disease was the primary cause of his suicidal inclinations, an ambulance was summoned, and they both went in search of treatment.
