Popular conservative radio host Michael "Doc" Thompson died tragically Tuesday afternoon after being struck by an Amtrak train while jogging in Haltom City, Texas. He was 49.

"Doc was one of those one-in-a million talents, who was the same on the air as off the air," Blaze Media host Glenn Beck told TheBlaze. "But what made him truly unique was that he truly tried to serve his audience, those who were less fortunate and struggling, as well as the small entrepreneurs who were clients of his show. He truly was excited at other people's success."

Thompson was the host of "Doc Thompson's Daily MoJo 5.0" radio talk show, which he launched last year after leaving TheBlaze radio. "The Morning Blaze with Doc Thompson" show debuted in January 2013. Prior to that he worked in radio at number of stations across the country. He was born and raised in Ohio.

"He was the ultimate entrepreneur," Beck said during his show Wednesday morning. "He left us to start his own business. He loved new businesses and because of Doc, many businesses are flourishing because he would take them under his wings.
