Daily Caller co-founder Tucker Carlson was spotted smiling and laughing Tuesday night as he sped around in a golf cart, days after his unexpected departure from Fox News.
Carlson was seen, as the UK’s Daily Mail described, “howling in laughter” as he emerged from his home in Boca Grande, Florida, with his wife Susan. Various media corporations, Fox News included, have raced each other to the bottom airing any form of speculation they can find about what happened to “Tucker Carlson Tonight.”
In the midst of the feeding frenzy, Tucker reportedly said life was going well and that he looked forward to spending more time with his wife. (RELATED: Glenn Beck Predicts Tucker Carlson Departure Will ‘Kill’ Network)

“I haven’t eaten dinner with my wife on a weeknight in seven years,” Carlson added.

“Appetizers plus entree,” Carlson said.
