Bob Barker

Best known for hosting the iconic game show The Price is Right, Bob Barker retired from television after 35 years as host. It’s been quite some time since viewers got to see the famous host in action. What has he been up to after all this time? Barker started hosting Truth or Consequences years after he earned his degree in economics. He also had his radio program, The Bob Barker Show, which aired in the 1950s for six years.

He retired from the small screen in 2007 and has been a supporter of animal welfare and animal rights activism. He suffered a partially blocked left carotid artery, a stroke, prostate surgery, skin cancer, stitches, head and knee injuries, and has been hospitalized twice in 2018. He turned 97 in December 2020, and despite experiencing health issues over the years, he is surprisingly doing well.
