Art was a great talker and entertainer, no doubt about it.  Art Bell was P.T. Barnum, and Coast is the Barnum and Bailey Circus. Even the greatest will one day cease to exist.

The real one was kinda a douche to everyone (to some degree and at different times in his life).  So the legendary one is best left to discussion.

He may have been a douche irl, but I still enjoy listening to streams of his shows online. Can guarantee that on one of about 4 streams I have on my Sonos I can find one I either know I enjoyed listening to before or only vaguely remember. Very rare I find one I haven't heard, but some are like comfy blankets on a winter night.

Landscaping Lesson from Art:
Since the dry days of July have hit I have watered a 15' by 20' area of my yard to keep it green like a yard back east. I have no illusions of changing the desert or a semi-arid region on a bigger scale.

I think of it as the legacy backyard green patch, LOL.

Unpopular opinion: Art was great, but he got a long way doing that fakey heh-heh thing with his voice to make his comments seem ironic or insightful or brilliant. George does the wow-gosh thing, and the same comments can come off uninspired and ingratiating.

Art Bell is to George Noory as Robert Reed is to Jim Nabors. Not that either was closeted, but they both have their own brand of swish.

Title: Re: The Legendary Art Bell
Post by: Bob on July 10, 2018, 08:17:52 PM
I've had a long relationship with Art (not like the one Heather may have been having).  He's been both a mentor and a thorn at different times in my life.  I once wrote a blog discussing how I found it suspicious that Art would remarry just three months after Ramona died.  Art threatened to sue me for stating my opinion of  "something just wasn't adding up".  He later retracted that threat and simply asked me to remove it because "you know none of that is true".

Instead of being sued I decided to remove the blog post.
But even to this day, we have more questions than answers about Ramona's death...among other things.

I will, however, say that when I needed help as a new broadcaster/podcaster, Art reached out to me by phone.  I never had his number (he always called with his number blocked) but he would call almost anytime I needed his advice.
 
His real-life persona wasn't the greatest, and he admitted to that.  But his radio persona was the greatest of any radio host that has ever lived. Nobody will ever replicate the storytelling ability he had. He could thrill you with the most mundane of events...only because he was our equivalency of P.T. Barnum.

While he wasn't the greatest father to most of his children, I truly believe he tried to make up for those failures by being a great dad to his last two children.  They will be his lasting legacy, not those who despise him for leaving.

Just my two cents.

Did art smother Ramona?

Is MV another one of Art’s illigitimate kids?  Is heather?

What was Art’s favorite flavor of ice cream? 

How did he take his coffee?

Did he smell good?  Can you describe the scent?  Was it woodsy?  Vanilla tinged? Musky?

How many transferable machine guns did art own?  Who gets them in the will?  Rowland or his child bride?

A fine vignette for sure.

Art was also a model ham, but again that's a "radio" persona.

Sadly for a time his "legacy" will revolve around Heather and the cuckshed, until such time as she or his family move on.

Longtime lurker finally coming out of the (B)EllGab closet because Commandant Ell is making us if we want access to any of the good stuff on this site (damn/praise BE). Lurked at BellGab since Art announced his final C2C retirement after the 2010 Ghost to Ghost show. Discovered Art in the mid-90s, probably '96, and it literally changed my life. It was like I finally found where I belonged and who I belonged with. I worked nights back then, usually got off work around midnight-1 a.m., and would spend the rest of the night hanging on Art and whatever guest's every word. I would bust ass to finish my work by 1 a.m., listen to the start of the show on my way home, sit in the driveway and continue to listen until the bottom of the hour, then race into the house and turn on the radio before he came out of the break and listen the rest of the night. I never heard anything like it before, never knew Art or his show existed until my dad told me about it. Great times, those '90s shows. Absolute magic.

By the way, I've never posted on a message board before, so this is my "first time" and I'm sure I'll screw up in the early going. Please be gentle. Or at least as gentle as you can  ;)

Any word on Art's autopsy report? I know Knappy has been trying to track it down, without success. If foul play isn't suspected it may never be released. I'm not sure what the law is in Nevada or any other state, but Airyn may wish to keep the results private.

Is an autopsy always necessary in medical examiner cases?
In cases of a natural death, where no crime is suspected and there is no public health risk, an autopsy is not usually required.

Thanks Metron. I didn't find anything on the Nye County site, but apparently Clark County handles Nye County's autopsies, and according to the Clark County site they "investigate all deaths caused by any criminal means, violence or suicide, and any unattended death, whatever the cause." I remember seeing or hearing something shortly after Art died that he was surrounded by his family when he died, if that has anything to do with it. On the Facebook video announcing his death, the Nye County Sheriff said an autopsy would be conducted soon, so who knows. Anthony Bourdain's tox report came back a couple weeks after his death, although that was ruled a suicide and it was in France.

I guess if we never hear an official cause of death we'll have to go with complications from COPD. Dannion did say on the C2C tribute show that Art had been in severe pain and "it just wasn't worth it." I found "it just wasn't worth it" to be curious wording. It insinuates something intentional on Art's behalf unless I'm reading too much into it.

Either way Art's gone so it's all window dressing at this point. Just a matter of curiosity to close the door once and for all.

Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction Metron.

There are some rumors flying around that he committed suicide, but we can take that with a grain of salt, since every possible rumor about him floated around anyway.

I do know here in Michigan, a woman said her niece died in her 20's, and they said the autopsy results would take at least 4 months. I talked to her 4 months later and she said the autopsy still wasn't back yet.

The real story behind Art Bell's 130 rescued orphans.  I thought I'd summarize it here.

We've all heard the same or similar story parroted everywhere (from Art's C2C page):

"Then he raised money in Alaska that allowed Art to charter a DC 8, fly to Vietnam and rescue 130 Vietnamese Orphans stranded in Saigon at the war's end. They were eventually all brought to America and adopted by American families."

What really happened:

In April 1975, the Jaycees of Anchorage (a group of about 40 young men - Jaycee stands for Junior Chamber, an international club) spearheaded a fast fundraiser with the intent to charter one of Ed Daly's World Airways DC-8 planes and rescue orphans out of Saigon.  The fundraiser "went viral" going statewide in Alaska and raised 130 thousand dollars.  That was enough money and they had 15-20 volunteers standing by at a moment's notice to jump on the plane once they got the green light to go.  They spent a lot of time talking to both US and South Vietnamese governments and orphanages in Saigon.  They never got the green light so the mission to Vietnam didn't go.  Instead the money went to charter an Alaskan Airlines 727 to transport Vietnamese orphans from Seattle to Philadelphia.  The orphans had already been airlifted from Saigon to Seattle by government military C-141 planes.  After the Philadelphia charter, and other expenses, they had only spent 1/3 of the pot of money.  They pledged the rest to help children in Alaska.

It appears that Art was a DJ on radio station KENI in Anchorage at the time, so likely had a role in the fundraising.  It is unclear if he was a member of the 40 strong Jaycees (Junior Chamber) club there.  One of the Jaycee co-chairmen of this "Operation Airlift" ie. the guy running it was Chuck May, it is not known at this time of writing who the other chairman was.

This is all taken from the Fairbanks Daily Times-Miner.  Articles on April 8, 9, 16 and May 2 and July 11, 1975

It's been three months since Art died so we're in that window then. I know Noory has been giving periodic updates on trying to get the tox reports, and on a whim I went back and listened to last night's C2C open and sure enough he had another update, said the coroner said that Art's tox report isn't back yet. So there definitely was an autopsy and we'll find out what officially happened in due time.

I live in Ohio, and my mom had been dead about three days before a friend found her in her house (she lived alone). Smoked herself to death. I had spoken to her just a few days before. I talked with the coroner in her driveway and he never even asked me about an autopsy, which I thought strange since she had been deceased about 72 hours. So maybe per Ohio law he didn't see a reason for an autopsy.

Like everyone else I have wondered what Art's last days were like, because I emailed him on April 9 (the first time I ever had any actual contact with him) about a classic bumper music question that's been driving me nuts, and he answered me back on April 10 saying he wasn't sure what song it was and if I could send him more information. I responded to him that same day, April 10, giving him what more info I could, and I never heard from him again. Of course he died three days later.

We've all heard the same or similar story parroted everywhere (from Art's C2C page):

"Then he raised money in Alaska that allowed Art to charter a DC 8, fly to Vietnam and rescue 130 Vietnamese Orphans stranded in Saigon at the war's end. They were eventually all brought to America and adopted by American families."

What really happened:

In April 1975, the Jaycees of Anchorage (a group of about 40 young men - Jaycee stands for Junior Chamber, an international club) spearheaded a fast fundraiser with the intent to charter one of Ed Daly's World Airways DC-8 planes and rescue orphans out of Saigon.  The fundraiser "went viral" going statewide in Alaska and raised 130 thousand dollars.  That was enough money and they had 15-20 volunteers standing by at a moment's notice to jump on the plane once they got the green light to go.  They spent a lot of time talking to both US and South Vietnamese governments and orphanages in Saigon.  They never got the green light so the mission to Vietnam didn't go.  Instead the money went to charter an Alaskan Airlines 727 to transport Vietnamese orphans from Seattle to Philadelphia.  The orphans had already been airlifted from Saigon to Seattle by government military C-141 planes.  After the Philadelphia charter, and other expenses, they had only spent 1/3 of the pot of money.  They pledged the rest to help children in Alaska.

It appears that Art was a DJ on radio station KENI in Anchorage at the time, so likely had a role in the fundraising.  It is unclear if he was a member of the 40 strong Jaycees (Junior Chamber) club there.  One of the Jaycee co-chairmen of this "Operation Airlift" ie. the guy running it was Chuck May, it is not known at this time of writing who the other chairman was.

This is all taken from the Fairbanks Daily Times-Miner.  Articles on April 8, 9, 16 and May 2 and July 11, 1975

This is great

Art involved in trafficking 130 child slaves.  (Just like he did with Airyn after he killed Ramona)

Then abandons them in shithole Philly.

Then pretends to be some white knight hero while the poor kids are probably never seen of again after their use in massage parlors and Democrat pizza parties sex magik pineal gland eating is done.

What a dickhead.

It's been three months since Art died so we're in that window then. I know Noory has been giving periodic updates on trying to get the tox reports, and on a whim I went back and listened to last night's C2C open and sure enough he had another update, said the coroner said that Art's tox report isn't back yet. So there definitely was an autopsy and we'll find out what officially happened in due time.

I live in Ohio, and my mom had been dead about three days before a friend found her in her house (she lived alone). Smoked herself to death. I had spoken to her just a few days before. I talked with the coroner in her driveway and he never even asked me about an autopsy, which I thought strange since she had been deceased about 72 hours. So maybe per Ohio law he didn't see a reason for an autopsy.

Like everyone else I have wondered what Art's last days were like, because I emailed him on April 9 (the first time I ever had any actual contact with him) about a classic bumper music question that's been driving me nuts, and he answered me back on April 10 saying he wasn't sure what song it was and if I could send him more information. I responded to him that same day, April 10, giving him what more info I could, and I never heard from him again. Of course he died three days later.


Art would had known what song you were talking about.  Those songs were the soundtrack to his miserable life.


“Art” didn’t know because dumbass heather was pretending to be art and was wearing her art bell skin suit while answering his emails.  Heather would only know if you asked about some Danzig song.


Art had been dead a week by then.  Heather was wearing art’s skin suit.  That is why she couldn’t bear to see art’s Corpse too.  Because she skinned him and the mortician just tossed his skin suit in the casket with his degloved body.

I'm not an Art basher and I'm not an Art apologist. He was one hell of a radio host, maybe the best ever, but he certainly did some off-putting things like marrying a 20-year-old three months after Ramona died and the whole Heather fiasco. All of us have done some things we regret and wish we could take back, but the Heather thing was really strange. She goes from being a perfect stranger to Art staking his credibility on her, in a matter of months. And even when it became obvious nobody was buying it, he still force-fed the notion that she was steadily improving and even became angry that people didn't like her or her show. What was in it for Art to be this obsessive and possessive about her? I know people say he was getting a shot of leg from her, but it's difficult to imagine a guy his age with his health issues, especially difficulty breathing, getting after it with Heather. There had to be something else that made him go down with the ship on that one.

For me it doesn't taint all the years of incredible radio he gave us, that had nothing to do with the Heather situation, but it makes you wonder where his mind was at toward the end. Maybe COPD wasn't his only ailment. Sad.

LOL Snoory at his obtuse best. In a very serious tone tonight he tells the audience that they/Coast called the coroner's office as they have regularly been doing since Art's passing but were told the results of the autopsy/toxicology aren't in. Jorch then admonishes the audience to not speculate on the cause of death, he knows people are doing that all over the place 'We know Art had COPD ........ but there are all kinds of wild possibilities'  What a stooge, in the same breath he lectures people not to speculate he fans the flames with 'all kinds of wild possibilities'. Then he emphasized it's been 3 months, a long time folks ..... absolutely suggesting that one of the wild possibilities is some kind of conspiracy involved.

Fine reporting there  :o

1. He left the airwaves in 2002, as full time host yes but he was the regular Sat-Sun host for years.

2. He broadcasted the show from his radio station in Pahrump. Nope, wrong, fake news. Art never hosted Coast to Coast, Dreamland, Dark Matter or Midnight in the Desert from his radio station.

He was abusing them, since a fatal dose is well above anything therapeutic, and he can not have been unaware of the danger.  The line is blurry and, in the pursuit of oblivion, they can't be sure when they cross over from temporary to permanent.

By well-above, I would surmise this would mean on orders of magnitude. (An addiction versus an extra this or that on this particular night by mistake) Addicted or not it, was accidental and they would know that.

Not orders of magnitude -- the "safe" increases in dosage, under a doctor's supervision, are pretty shallow steps.  But self-dosing at home at levels above what you tell any one doctor, you know what you're doing.  It's as intentional as russian roulette.

This too. Were they all prescribed through one doctor? We may never know.
All I know is when I had a couple of bad molars pulled last year they would only prescribe me ibuprofen. I was actually cussing out that oral surgeon under my breath as I writhed around the couch in pain that day.
Perhaps this level of concern hadn't reached Pahrump.

Nevada does have a prescription monitoring program:
Prescription Monitoring Program (PMP)
The Nevada Prescription Monitoring program is a tracking program managed by the Nevada State Board of Pharmacy. The program allows a patient’s prescription history to be readily available to practitioners and pharmacists. The program helps evaluate a course of patient care and assists healthcare providers in determining if a patient is abusing controlled substances.

NV PMP Reports
Prescription monitoring program reports contain a summary of patient history for schedule II, III and IV controlled substances the patient has received. The report specifies drug name, quantity, date written, date filled, prescriber, dispenser and method of payment. These records are reported by the dispensing pharmacy or dispensing practitioner.

http://healthiernv.org/resources/prescribers/ (http://healthiernv.org/resources/prescribers/)

Interesting in that it says "allows it to be available" so there is mandated reporting, but is it mandated that it must be checked prior to prescribing and dispensing?

Hopefully, Knapp will bring on a Nevada doctor to sort this all out.

We have one in this state, too.  It sounds impressive on paper but, in practical terms, it means every single provider has to upload a clunky text file to a government database on a regular basis, and you rely on everyone to check it before prescribing.  It's better than nothing.

Throw enough opiates at someone and they will. And don't say it like its a failure in his personality, its chemical dependence, he couldn't help it.

Same with Prince.  Don't quote me but didn't he have severe back/hip pain from jumping off amplifiers while wearing grossly high heeled boots?  He was able to afford the fancier opiate fentanyl, over Art's Oxycodone, but the end results were the same.  We are frail creatures when it comes to pain management.  Our brains will fabricate any excuse to attain that elusive, pain free state.  I really wish poor Art had never fallen down that telephone pole way back in his younger days.

I looked but couldn't find anything.  I think he wrote an album called Fallen Angels though they weren't falling off telephone poles, but knowing Dylan, perhaps they were.  I did find this interesting set of Dylan lyrics' though:

Dr. Filth, he keeps his world inside of a leather cup
But all his sexless patients, they're trying to blow it up
Now his nurse, some local loser
She's in charge of the cyanide hole
And she also keeps the cards that read
"Have mercy on his soul"
They all play on the penny whistles, you can hear them blow
If you lean your head out far enough from Desolation Row

Carisoprodol - It can treat pain and stiffness from muscle spasms.
Diazepam - It can treat anxiety, muscle spasms, and seizures.
Hydrocodone - It can treat pain.
Oxycodone - It can treat moderate to severe pain.
A doctor would tell a patient to take BOTH hydrocodone and oxycodone?  I wonder if Art had one of those from an old prescription and decided on his own to combine them, probably knowing full well what the result could be.  Of course, he could have gotten it without a prescription, too.

I suspect the "accidental" diagnosis was for reputation and insurance purposes.
Perhaps in ruling “accident” vs. “suicide”, the Vegas authorities were offering a final “tip of the cap” to one of their favorite Nevada characters— the Patron Saint of late night workers, insomniacs, and edge-dwellers everywhere.

Yes, in the absence of a note, an eyewitness, or any contrary evidence,  the finding would have to be “accidental”. 

The truth will remain a mystery,

How I bumped into Art Bell on the airwaves:
I had moved to Bucksport Maine USA in 94 and had to raise my daughter as a stay at home parent when I first settled into town. I had an old AM/FM/shortwave radio and being super bored one night I started surfing the SW\FM bands. It was Arts voice that first caught my attention. He had the natural talent of making me feel that perhaps he stopped by and was just having a chat with you. His show had a unique laid back, how ya doing kind of feel to it even though he was thousands of miles away and had no idea who you were. Some say he created theatre of the mind. Bang on. He was an entertainer and a master of his craft. I was a fan from the first night I tuned in. Unique guests, topics, and callers. Weather you agreed with them or not it didn't seem to matter. It was entertaining and I think that was the point. Not to prove Bigfoot was found and finally captured in central park, proof Aliens had landed on earth and were living in secret in the back stock room at a local Wal-mart, and JC of course. Who could forget him calling Art weather it was a set up or not it you stuck around to see where he was taking things that night. The spooky Ghost to Ghost. It was indeed a great ride and those who follow will never fill his shoes or have his style. Art was the total package. I think Keith said "just like The Tonight show there will be many hosts but never another Johnny Carson. So thanks Art for making us laugh, scratch our heads, roll our eyes, share your stories, and keep us company late into the night at home and out on the road. You will be missed. "West of the Rockies, hello! Your on the air"...Rest in piece my friend.....

If only there were someone he could have reached out to.  Someone who could make the street connections for him.  Someone who could wade through that seamy underworld.  Perhaps we'll never know.  Or maybe the Pahrump coppers are just playing clueless and are moving their investigation right along.  If that were so, I would hope they could nab the perps before they disappear.

Yep. Art was a really smart guy. He had to have known those four drugs taken together could, and likely would, be fatal. Plus, meds come with instructions of not to mix, etc. With the constant pain he was in, getting worse all the time, struggling to breathe as Dannion said, he was suffering a slow, excruciating death. What was the point in continuing? It's not hard to imagine Art saying "That's enough" and taking that drug combo and going to sleep, knowing he would never wake up. And if that's what he did, I don't blame him at all.

Even if he hadn't died of the OD, how much longer did he really have in that condition? A few weeks? A few months, tops? He may have hit his 73rd birthday in June, maybe. He almost certainly wouldn't have lived out the year based on what we know about his condition. And his quality of life in that time leading to a natural death would have been shit and getting shittier. His doctor or doctors may have given a prognosis on his life expectancy at that point and he figured the hell with it, I'm checking out.

It's all speculation of course, but it doesn't make sense that a guy with Art's intelligence could make such a mistake with that witches brew of meds. Just my two cents.

I don't believe it was intentional.  He just had a son born.  He may not have valued his earlier children but he appeared to love his latest offspring.  I imagine he would have liked to stay on Earth for a bit longer. He was still posting on twitter and facebook with no indication of depression.  I think he had a senior moment and accidentally took his meds too close together.  We'll never know though.

"Mixing prescription opioid painkillers with a class of drugs that includes popular sedatives such as Valium and Xanax can cause a fatal overdose, U.S. health officials warned.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration said it will require “boxed warnings” on 389 different products to inform health professionals and the public of this potentially lethal drug interaction, FDA Commissioner Dr. Robert Califf said during a media briefing.

Benzodiazepines -- which include Valium and Xanax -- affect the central nervous system, and are used to treat conditions like anxiety, insomnia and seizures, said Dr. Doug Throckmorton, deputy director of regulatory programs with the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research." -CBS News Sept 2016

I also hope it wasn't intentional but can understand if it was. Yes, it's also easy to see him getting confused as to what meds he took and when he took them that day or the night before (I do that sometimes now and I'm nowhere near Art's age). After all, this is a guy who super-glued his lips together during a show and fell off his front porch.

My mom was on a bunch of meds as her health failed and I have no idea how she kept it all straight. She too was on powerful painkillers and other meds and had to space them all out throughout the day. Seemed like an accident waiting to happen. Looks like it did to Art. RIP buddy

I wonder if an independent medical examiner, one that is not affiliated with the NYE County Sheriff's Office and one who would not even know who Art Bell is, would reach the same conclusion that the medication overdose was 'accidental'.
 
Pure speculation here but Heather's irrational behavior these past few months might make sense, to outside observers, if the reason for her behavior was because she knew Art was thinking about suicide. Maybe he mentioned it in passing as a joke or off hand comment, but she never took him serious or could persuade him otherwise and then suddenly he's dead. She'd not only be overcome with grief but also with regret and shame that she could not do, or did not do, enough to possibly help him.

There is lots of speculation...

Even though the Medical Examiner's report answered a lot of questions it also opened up a lot of them as well.
So apropos for Arthur William Bell.

Patients with COPD lose their CO2 drive to breathe so they are left with only the hypoxic drive, opiates impair your hypoxic drive.

But Friday the 13th is simply to coincidental for me to think it was accidental. It could be, but Art was a smart man, not a very moral one but certainly a smart one. I miss the hope he'll one day host another show and I concur with your thoughts on the subject and I don't hold it against him. I think euthanasia, and suicide, should be legal.

I could see Art saying enough is enough and exiting on his own, and I could see him just getting confused as to the dosage he took that day or day before. However, and I mentioned this earlier in this thread, I emailed him on April 9 with a question about a piece of bumper music from the mid-90s and sent a link to the YouTube video of his show with the song I was referring to. He answered me on April 10 requesting more information about the bumper music piece. I answered him back later on April 10 with what info I could give him, and never heard back. He was dead three days later. So from my email exchange with him, I can only surmise that he was very much with it mentally at that point and makes me lean toward thinking that he had had enough and left this life of his own volition.

And the Friday the 13th factor certainly weighs heavily in that line of thinking, almost like a wink and a nod from Art to his fans who are paying attention.

That's the problem when dying from COPD you are all there up to the end. It's an ugly death. I think your reasoning is quite sound and I'm in complete agreement.

It's definitely hard to explain her behavior since he died. Grieving manifests differently in different people, but we all pick up the pieces and move on with our lives. We have jobs to get back to, obligations to tend to, lives to lead. And we usually don't have longer than a week or two to do this. Yes, we are still grieving, but we carry on and grieve simultaneously. She seems to have completely shut down over this. It just makes you think, as I believe you have correctly stated, that there is more to the story here. Maybe she did know in advance. If that's the case, then it's more than grief with her, it's a lot of things. Hard to say. But yes, her behavior is very odd to say the least.

It could still be high drama on her part, wanting attention, but since the release of the autopsy report and now knowing the cause of death, and the distinct possibility that Art took matters into his own hands, it makes me wonder what Heather knew and when she knew it.

Got a laugh remembering his descriptions of these incidents.  I believe he controlled his exit and it was no accident.

I agree and it makes me feel very disappointed and a bit angry at Art. It seems so selfish and cowardly to do that, IMO. I want to remember the good, fun times, great things about him not let this possibility cloud my memories of him.

And thanks to you for your insight as well.

For me, the suicide angle was a leap at first, but all the information taken collectively, I'm 60-40 now, maybe 70-30, that Art left of his own accord. A lot of it just makes sense. I believe I remember Art talking on his show, probably more than once, that he was a proponent of assisted suicide if things were bad enough for someone, that he could understand not wanting to suffer anymore. He admitted on the air that he almost committed suicide after Ramona died. Whitley said on the tribute show I think that he and Anne got in the car immediately and drove to Pahrump to talk him out of it. And that emergency room nurse's post that she thought it was strange that he had such a lethal mixture of drugs in his system. Just everything starts to add up. Art always lived outside the box and on his own terms, that's what made him so interesting and gave his shows that edge. So it's not a reach that he died outside the box on his own terms. It would be quintessential Art to have gone out that way. And, you know, on Friday the 13th ...

Art Bell's ouija board message on last night's Jimmy Church show:

All things are done by choice and there are no accidents.
Though not a deliberate act there was purpose behind the decisions I made.
I know that now and not then.
This was a decision I made freely, this I know as well now.
This is my final signoff as I fade to black.
Further proof that Knapp is not the vulture, Church is.

In the fullness of time we'll know but until then....

I don't think that we will ever know.  I see a number of us applauding Art for cutting short what would probably have been a nasty, debilitating, unwinnable fight against a deadly disease and if that is the way it was, then good.  Some acquaintance of Art's claimed that Art was already having trouble breathing (something that must have come on fast because Art looked pretty good in those drone videos.)  My only question at this point is, did Art have one of those portable oxygen tanks?  You know, those small canisters that you see people wearing in the grocery stores, etc.?  That would have certainly helped him in the initial stages of the disease, and yet he wasn't wearing one in the drone videos.  He certainly could have afforded a top of the line model.  I have seen some products that claim the following:

THE BENEFITS OF PORTABLE OXYGEN FOR COPD & OXYGEN THERAPY
Oxygen provides many benefits, and now with portable oxygen concentrators, you can reclaim your freedom and independence.
Increases Survival
Improves Exercise Tolerance
Improves Mental Alertness
Get Better Sleep
Improves Mood
Increases Stamina
Travel Where You Want, Why You Want.

I'm just wondering if Art went through the oxygen regimen.  Just another facet to ponder, I reckon.

I find the fact he responded and then acted like he was unsure if you were suggesting he faked it proof enough in my mind that he faked it, LOL. Like he hadn't thought of that?

In the off chance it was real (<1%) Art was setting him up with something that would appear to be phony under the circumstances that Jimmy will never let down.

With the constant pain he was in, getting worse all the time, struggling to breathe as Dannion said, he was suffering a slow, excruciating death. What was the point in continuing? It's not hard to imagine Art saying "That's enough" and taking that drug combo and going to sleep, knowing he would never wake up. And if that's what he did, I don't blame him at all.
Think Mr. Schrader should edit into his anti-suicide pitch a disclaimer like, "...unless you're in the late Mr. Bell's situation..."?

One thing that confused me, though, was the timing of the sequence of finding a replacement m.c. for Art on MITD; it sounded like that was in the works well before the night of the shooting, and the revelation of his "I'm shot" joke even suggested a kind of rehearsal for such a hoax.  Has Keith said anything that would confirm that the shooter-stalker scenario (from cut cable to shootings) was made up?  Like maybe something was said in the 3-hour tribute show that preceded this bonus?

Keith didn't imply that the stalker was a hoax at all.  In fact he mentioned someone who he thought was that person, a local in Pahrump that wanted Art to advertise his product on MITD, but Art refused since he believed it was junk so that angered the guy.

Just heard Ian Punnett's bit from the "Art Bell Final Sendoff Show".
What an absolute muppet. The segment suddenly became about him and how much Alan Corbeth influenced him.
I was surprised Ian was able to talk with his tongue so far up Corbeth's butt. He was so giddy.
One needs to cleanse oneself by going through a decontamination chamber at the CDC after allowing auditory waves from Ian's vocal chords get processed by their ears. It is greasy.

I liked Ian when he first started guest-hosting on C2C in the early 00s I think. He seemed original, had some fresh content and angles for the show, was a change of pace and didn't copy Art, which was good. But after a few years he just wore me down with his too-cool-for-school type approach, laughing at his own remarks and one-liners, getting combative with guests he didn't agree with rather than let them present their topic/research, and he just seemed to get sillier and sillier in his approach. I'm all for switching it up and having fun with the show from time to time, a walk on the lighter side, but Ian just became a caricature of himself IMO.

Church has never grown on me. His cadence and the sound of his voice make me feel like he's trying to sell me snake oil. And I hate how he spends the first 10 minutes of his show telling the audience how well he knows his guest, like he's part of the in-crowd and tight with everyone when all he's doing is hanging out with them at a conference. And if they are actually close friends, just say "we're close friends" and be done with it. No need to give us a life history of the friendship.

Schrader is galaxies better than those two.

I would be remiss if I didn't applaud Ian for the shows he did about the Smiley Face Killer and the D.B. Cooper case. I really enjoyed those shows, very interesting and thought-provoking. They were right in the same vein as Knappy's David Paulides shows. Wish Ian would ditch the cartoon-character act and go back to that style because he was much better then.

I liked Ian when he first started guest-hosting on C2C in the early 00s I think. He seemed original, had some fresh content and angles for the show, was a change of pace and didn't copy Art, which was good. But after a few years he just wore me down with his too-cool-for-school type approach, laughing at his own remarks and one-liners, getting combative with guests he didn't agree with rather than let them present their topic/research, and he just seemed to get sillier and sillier in his approach. I'm all for switching it up and having fun with the show from time to time, a walk on the lighter side, but Ian just became a caricature of himself IMO...

I really liked Ian.  He was a good host, and a lot of the time covered some good topics that no one else really did.  He had some slightly annoying quirks - smug, smarmy, an elitist wannabe, terrible sense of humor - especially with the bad puns, pretending to be a Christian while distancing himself from Christianity, always had to have the last word, and so on.  But it was with a light touch and not overly irritating.

For me it all seemed to turn when he was forced to apologize on air to that Steve Quayle idiot after arguing with him about what the show topic was going to be.  After that Ian seemed worse, like he either didn't care or at least wasn't going to bother limiting his asshattedness.  His little quirks became major impediments to the enjoyment of his show.  As a host he changed, turned into a raging jerk.  Still is

Until he decided to be George Noory’s fill-in host, he cut the ties with us. Contrary to Jimmy saying he spoke with Art everyday, the only time Jimmy and Art spoke is when I conferenced them together and they argued about Jimmy going on C2C. Art hated Premiere, as soon as Jimmy showed any interest is C2C and GN, they never spoke again, AFAIK.

This oujia board stunt is just showing another attempt at sucking up to Art’s fans.

Totally agree with all of this. He jumped the shark for me with his Zombie Apocalypse show that was in the mold of War of the Worlds. Don't remember if that came before or after the Quayle fiasco. I actually never heard that Quayle show because, by then, I had determined that Quayle was either batshit nuts, a pathological liar, or both. Certainly not listenable for a show. The hell of it is, I used to like Quayle when he talked about the terrorism stuff back in the day. But he strayed from that and got into -- and stayed in -- padded room territory. I remember on one of Art's interviews after he left MITD when he said that many guests would feel like they had to continually outdo themselves each time they were on. Quayle was certainly one of them. Don't remember if he was ever on with Art, but Quayle went completely off the rails. Noory has pretty much stopped having him on from what I can tell.

When Ian decides to get serious and do a big-boy show, he still has some chops. But that's rare. More often we get the smug, elitist, unfunny version of Ian. Can't tell if he's doing it on purpose or just morphed into it naturally. Do we know if he's going to stay as a fill-in host once he starts teaching at K-State in the fall?

Glad to do the 4th hour, and could have done a 5th. So some day I could talk about more about Art and the behind the scenes business of running this show.

However I covered most of the issues, maybe not in a complete way, but hopefully enough to express the happenings behind the scenes.

I really want to fade back into the background and help Dave carry the show into the future.

Keith didn't imply that the stalker was a hoax at all.  In fact he mentioned someone who he thought was that person, a local in Pahrump that wanted Art to advertise his product on MITD, but Art refused since he believed it was junk so that angered the guy.
That fits with what Karen had said when Dave interviewed her after Art died and she mentioned some crazy guy also hanging around the station giving her trouble.
Huh!  I'd've thought that Art would've loved to tell that story, just leaving out the name.

But now, just  few months after I'd finally decided it was a hoax, you've given me something to make me doubt my doubt.

Lol don't knock your own preferences. To each his own, those were just my humble opinions according to my own tastes. Sometimes I question my taste because other than the GIS, my favorite guest of Art's was always Ed Dames. He's been vilified on BG/EG as a charlatan, and he may be, but the way Art handled him and those interviews was extraordinary. Great radio. I always thought, what if this guy isn't full of shit? What if he's right and all -- or even some -- of this stuff comes to pass? I always thought the chemistry between Art and Ed made for some really good shows. But then, that could be my bad taste ;)

An autopsy is not generally necessary when the death is known to be the result of known medical conditions/diseases. Lt.

In Nevada, an autopsy is required unless you are directly under the care of a physician at the time of death - such as being a patient in a hospital. Being sick and under a doctor’s care is not sufficient.

HUGE NEWS! Connie Willis, weekend host on Coast2Coast, has a filmmaker guest on tonight who has been documenting the life of 'Robert', a 38 year old man from the Netherlands with a powerful connection to the spirit world, an intuitive/medium, a contactee, crop circle expert- amazing shit happens to this man every day, the filmmaker assures that Robert is for real as he's been an eyewitness to things. WOW! So the big news is Robert visited a radio host in the UK, like the Dave Snoory of England, and Robert carries a camera with him, that's what makes Robert different than your average intuitive/medium, he documents his experiences with a camera. So while meeting the radio host Robert had his camera and caught something truly incredible in the camera - 6 images of a famous deceased person, I thought he was going to say a king or queen of England, or Arthur Conan Doyle, John Lennon or Benny Hill, being England and all, but no - the face staring back at him in that camera was Art freaking Bell!!! Blew Connie's steel trap of a mind - gobsmacked she was, she could only stammer out 'Gee I hope I don't end up in Robert's camera any time soon!' and then giggled girlishly as Connie is want to do.

Of course Connie who is Dave with a vagina, an imbecile, never even asked where we could see these images of Art's ghost.

Thank you for posting that video. Made me tear up a bit.
Every time I run across this video, I watch it. The magnificent expanse and desolation gets me every time.
I get why Art loved it out there. I'm unsure what time of day he shot this, (I suspect early morning), but other than the two cars
moving down the highway, it was absolutely still. Imagine standing there, with all that nothingness around you, looking into that
endless sky, and no noise at all. (except for the whine of the drone). At some point, long ago, that entire area was under water.
More than likely it will be again, some day. But for now, it is a place that many find peaceful. I think all Art wanted was to be left
alone to do his thing. With all of his wild days behind him, the man simply wanted solace, and a place to be with his loved ones,
and a few close friends. I cannot fault him for that. At the end of the day, isn't that what we all want?

Take that from a lass who was never told WHY the aging,wheezy, and old decrepit creepy pervert sold his house to or anointed Heater Wad with the microphone oil in the first place.
Seems he , being the swinger that he was, had many a secret skelly in his closet that he paid no mind to let others know about.
Reckon he ever told Airyn why he did these things as well?

A question was asked at the other place many years ago about how many shows Art did. If memory serves it came to 1900 +, actually closer to 2000 including Coast and Dreamland.  I've often wondered which one of us super-fans has the largest library. The one mega torrent of 2013 was over 60 GB's amounting to just over 1300 files (some of them were only segments, about 100ish). A few were folders containing After Dark stuff and xtra's but I believe 1306 was the number of broadcasts not counting folders. There are about 15 repeats but still, it's a whopper of a library to have.  I have that one but before that I had
a collection of just over 600 full shows that I collected from 98 - 06 from various platforms as well as recording from my local AM station before it died. Adding my 600 library to the mega torrent was great as most of my 600+ were not doubles or same shows that were found in the mega T. Jazmunda talked about being a "collector" I wonder if he has more than me. I have 1744 shows ranging from 3-5 hours.  How do I share 110 GB's?

I miss local AM radio with local guys talking about the way things used to be and how the world is sooo heading in the wrong direction.

That's a key point to make. When corporate radio came in and bought out local stations they inserted their own talent and spin. Local AM radio became a place where you could sell commercials but not hire local talent. That pretty much made local radio the equivalent of a rural UHF TV station translator, just a rebroadcasting resource, not an actual community asset. Things have been worse ever since.

I have the 60gb collection. I think that’s possibly the one the streams use. You should maybe torrent the extra 600 as an extra different mega as most people have the 60gb one? I’d definitely be interested in getting hold of those!

As we know, the shows themselves belong to Premrat.  When MW interviewed Noory he said the tapes were at the studio, kept loose and randomly in drawers and cabinets, and then promised to gather them up, digitize them, and make them available.  Of course nothing's been done.  At some point no doubt what hasn't already been lost will be thrown away.

There's always the much touted Ultimate Art Bell compilation torrent, 62 gigs of it.

Audio quality allegedly varies but is acceptable ftmp.

Or one can lurk the daily stream and record away:

The description says,"a total of 1337 shows from December 1992 until November 2013" and it has extras like an audio book of "The Art of Talk", After Dark newsletters from 1995, some Phil Hendrie parodies of Art and so on.

Bart prefers no links on this one due to copyright violation, so how you search it out is up to you. :-X

Too bad it isn't for sale. I'd buy it.

As would I. But you can still stream Art all day and night on tunein or the very useful and diverse Paranormal Radio App:

visitors can't see pics , please register or login


It's available in the Googoo Play store as well as for Apple. There are a few dozen streamed programs, Clyde Lewis's being one of the better ones.

There's always the much touted Ultimate Art Bell compilation torrent, 62 gigs of it.

Audio quality allegedly varies but is acceptable ftmp.

Or one can lurk the daily stream and record away:

Jazmunda (and others) have said the show collectors are missing quite a few.  Also, some of the shows they have are missing segments, the final hour, etc.  Apparently every once in awhile a Somewhere in Time broadcast is one they didn't have.

I'd guess there are more out there that people have, since for awhile back in the 90s Art was selling tapes of the shows, and some of those must still be around (not every one was reading BellGab, and people may not know others are looking for what they have).

I've never listened to an Art Bell show other than live (except for a few I recorded on the C Crane Versa-corder.  Before that pos broke).

So there are a zillion shows I have to look forward to sometime.  I've mostly had my fill of the paranormal though, his guests pretty much convinced me it's all BS (right, Hoagie?)

Thanks for the link for the Art Bell shows. Most of my life, I worked night shift. I could not listen to AB while at work. However, on my nights off, I was still a night person. My routine was in place. Stay up all night and sleep during the day. Listen to Art during the night.

I recently received my new C Crane radio. I enjoy having an AM FM radio in my kitchen. I listen to talk radio. Both local and national shows. Mark Levin and I have been doing the dishes in my kitchen for many years. I am lucky to have a few college radios stations that plays music. Paranormal radio bores me. Back in the 90's, I enjoyed listening to Art Bell live. Since his death, I have gone back to listening to Art Bell's old shows.

@26 horses maybe you could help me find my favorite Art Bell Show. Art Bell's interview with Dr Fred Bell (great nephew of Alexander Graham Bell) was the best. The topic was about possibility of Time Travel. Also, Dr Fred Bell talked about his time spent with the Moody Blues. Dr Bell talked on how music changes your brain and could heal you. I love hearing about Time Travel. I love music. So this show hit home with me. This show was on YouTube a few years ago. It is now gone :(

Whenever it was possible we subscribed and downloaded. Before that we had a C-crane radio that would record. My husband and I would listen the next evening or on the weekend. It was really great, we were just talking about that time in our lives.  What did you do when you moved to day shift?

@starman , most of us in EllGab had our start in the old country. I have a different name in the old country. I rarely post in the old country. I am a small fry over there. I am not tough enough to hang out with the big boys. Or maybe I don’t want that type of interaction.
Being an Art Bell fan was reason I joined a “Social Media Forum”.  I joined the old country January 2013. After Art Bell's passing, I wanted more information regarding his death. I traveled back to the old county and ended up in the HW thread. Suddenly that forum shut down. Thanks to Bart Ell we have EllGab. I am also thankful for THE BARTCAST EPISODE 6 – KAREN JACKSON, AIRYN BELL.  Most of my questions about Art Bell's final days were answered. Yet, I remained in the HW thread. WHY?
During the summer, I had injured my foot. I was still employed before my injury. My better half is a retiree. Now I had an injury that require a bone stimulator. I had to wear that device on my foot for 10 hours a day. In November, my foot healed. During that time, my mind healed as well. My job had a very high potential for being harmed. I realized that it was time for me to resign from my job before, I was truly injured.  Hence EllGab filled a void in my life. In the HW thread, there are so many really smart people. I truly “like” so many of our members. I enjoyed all the clever comments.
As I was lament the passing of Art Bell, I realized that I was in the wrong thread. The HW thread has been hijacked. It started to feel like the old country to me. That one vs Parry—The Fisher King was my get out of town signal. I decided that it was time for me to take a stroll around EllGab.
It was sad for me to realize that the HW thread has 6250 pages and this thread has 28 pages.

Again, I thank @Bart Ell , @wr250 for the tech stuff. @ponyboysunset and @DynamoHum  for being so brave for hosting.

This is an excellent summary. My story is not all that different overall. I got on bellgab for about a month before it shut down, looking for info about what was going to happen to the show since miss missy was AWOL. I had seen Bart's twitter and joined up to Ellgab when it appeared. Same name. I decided to participate and forced myself to post despite having no idea what I was doing with the forum app. In comparison bellgab posters seem to bite an nip at each other a bit. Glad you got out of the job before you got hurt further. People in the other thread are smart and funny, but yes it has been hijacked and is no longer funny. No prob, lots of other places to go.

Hi Fish. I'm glad to hear your on the mend. Our health is indeed most precious.

Yes this "is it". I am no longer subscript to C2C. This interview was available on YouTube. It is gone!. I wonder if it is due to Dr. Fred Bell's mysterious death.
Dr. Fred Bell died on September 25, 2011, within hours after Jesse Ventura interviewed him for the program Conspiracy Theory with Jesse Ventura
It certainly is another of those pesky "coincidences"... :o

I've never listened to an Art Bell show other than live (except for a few I recorded on the C Crane Versa-corder.  Before that pos broke).

So there are a zillion shows I have to look forward to sometime.  I've mostly had my fill of the paranormal though, his guests pretty much convinced me it's all BS (right, Hoagie?)
But it was fun having it on in the background while doing something else and laughing at some of the claims his guests were reporting. Satellites in orbit that can get a picture down to several meters with infer red, night vision, and FLIR heat recording capabilities and still no Bigfoot selfies. Oh well. I guess I'll have to rely on some guy out hunting rabbit to get us an eyes on Bigfoot count that technology can't. :)

There's something about shared experience, in this case knowing there were millions of others listening at the same time, or perhaps it's the idea that the show is live and they won't be rebroadcasting it.  Going back and listening now wouldn't be the same.

Mine was just the reverse, listen to Art streaming on Realplayer during the workday - my favorite show was Sunday night's Dreamland.

Did you ever listen to the Laura Lee program?

I've not heard of Laura Lee, she good?

Very true. I think your on to something here PB. But I do enjoy the replays. I sometimes catch a broadcast I missed along the way for one reason or another. A couple stand out for me that I found interesting. 1. Johnathan Reed and The Alien in the freezer. (Quite the tail with many characters and twists). 2.Someone used several power company high voltage transformers left at the side of the road to construct a time machine. (The guest walked the walk and talked some pretty good tech stuff in his claim). 3. Ghost to Ghost on Halloween. (Nothing better than ghost stories being told live on air while waiting to hand out treats to little ghost and goblins ringing your doorbell).

Hello @damon , I listen to Rush Limbaugh and Mark Levin on AM radio-lots of commercials. In between Rush and Mark, I listen to one of the college radio FM stations -almost no commercials. I try to walk the line between conservatism and progressivism.

They were good, I don't listen anymore because the subjects don't make my happy.   :)

Art knew how to do radio and really make it the "theater of the mind." Even when he was ornery "turn off the radio" or hang-up on a caller who dialed the wrong line it was epic. But more so when he "got" whatever point the guest, or caller, made.

He listened. "oh. oooh" when the big point was realized by him was epic.

And payed attention and not repeating same questions to same guest or using the same boiler-plate questions. And would go off topic or down a tangent when appropriate.  I think his claim of not reading the material of guest was a good option also. Allowed guest to explain the topic and be "new" to us listeners and him and so he would ask questions listeners would. Thought there surely were some set-ups etc who cares? Great radio often is and I listened/listen not, usually, for information but entertainment. And live, late at night, driving or even setting at home on radio: magic in the static.

I don't know about the whole karma thing but thanks. I recall driving to Vegas with friends and introducing them to Art over beers and long road trip there (kids don't do this) and the late night on the way to Vegas and they were mesmerized. "Who IS this guy?" "What the HELL?" A perfect storm: in the desert, middle of nowhere, listening on AM which would break-up a bit and I'd manually tune back in (old "dual knobby" car radio) and some crazy spooky topic and an electric storm. Was awesome. Better than Vegas was in recollection.

Better than Vegas! Somewhere in time, my employer offered to send my supervisor and me to a conference in Vegas. My supervisor asked if I would teach her how to play casino craps while in Vegas. She only knew how to play street craps. I could not wait to listen to Art Bell live from Pahrump. I was only an hour’s drive away from “Things That Go Pahrump in the Night.” I don't remember what Art Bell shows were playing while I was in Vegas. I remember being almost star stuck hearing Art Bell’s thunder clap sound while I was so close by. “Magic in the static”. My home was/is over 2,500 miles away from Pahrump.
Back to the conference. I had trouble staying awake. As I would be falling asleep, my supervisor would stab me with her pencil. In my defense, the speakers were some hippies from California. I do not dislike hippies. However these hippies were too far out for me.
Back to the casino. My supervisor learned how to play casino craps. Standing at a crap’s table, one of the players took some cash from out of his shoe. My supervisor stopped playing craps. She whispered to me “I am not playing with someone who is using his shoe money.”  I knew that she understood the psyche of a craps table. You only play craps with people who are not desperate for cash, either in a casino or in the streets.

Going back to listen is not the same. I listen to Art Bell’s old shows. For me it is like looking at my old family photos. At times, I am able to recall the moments. However it was not the same as living the moment.
I remember listening to the live shows. There were times, I would wonder how many people are listening. It was part of the psychic of listening to his live show. I was part of a very large group. We did not have easy access reaching Art Bell. We had fax machines, emails, AOL chat rooms and home phones. I would go into AOL's Grassy Knoll chat room, looking for Art. There was room for mystery about Art Bell.
Verses today. We have social media and no more mysterious host talking talking on the "air waves".

I think it worked out better when there was some mystery about the entertainer in question, whether that was Art Bell, ballplayers, or Hollywood folks.  I sure liked sports a lot better when the only time we heard from the athletes was a few minutes in an interview after the game.

My mother lives in Las Vegas. My father liked to play blackjack, while my mother preferred to play the poker machines. I don't like gambling, so I'd just watch. Casinos are interesting places, lots of good people watching. Now the machines are all electronic, winnings are added to cards as opposed to falling loudly out of the machine, which added to the whole casino thing if you ask me. Kinda sad.

Casinos would "shut down" and the money train would come to empty out the machines. My hands would be get so dirty from the coins. Casinos would set aside 2 hours for free craps classes. Baccarat lessons were every 15 minutes.

But that's functionally no different than the dearth of apparent imagery of UFOs, is it? So what are we left with, massive holographic manipulations, stacked dimensions of varying solidity, or could it be that the "powers that be" have a real tight hold on their own death star technology?

I can confirm as much, there was a palpable element of the shared unknown, like an unboxing done somewhere out there and then told to us around a virtual campfire.

You listen to reruns of Art, and they are simply reruns. The magic has occurred and is gone.

But maybe the same is true for old time radio and we just need to let Art's programs age into cognac, not just brandy.

I’ve been going to Vegas since 2000, the tail end of the coin era. The smell fo coins is an odd smell, but it reminds me of Vegas. I used to collect the coin buckets and bring them home. I used to love plopping a bucket full of coins into a hopper to get them changed up or taking the bucket to the cage! Bellagio used to give away very elegant gloves you could wear so your hands didn’t get dirty.

Because of the jet lag and my extreme excitement my first few days in vegas would start at around 3am - this is the time they empty all the machines of bills and the quietest time in the casino. I love that time, it’s and i can wander around with no crowds.

I’d always ring home about 4 am - midday at home. We always stay downtown I knew exactly where all the webcams and traffic cams were downtown, and I would often ring hom tell them which cam to bring up, get off the line, go wave for 5 minutes then ring them back!

Not been for a few years, I miss downtown!

I had no idea there was a money train or classes. That is a great idea. My last few visits did not include casinos, too much health business to take care of.  :P
During the time coins were used for slot machines they would empty the machines around 4 am. A money train and security would come out to empty the machines. That was my time to leave the casino.

Yes, right in my little side table here.
It's kind of fun opening up the old Art websites and seeing where Keith's web skills were at the time.

Suffice to say, the game has moved way on in all manners.

But as a memory ride - amazing. Some of this should find its way into the Art Bell memorial podcasts, imo.

I’ve been going to Vegas since 2000, the tail end of the coin era. The smell fo coins is an odd smell, but it reminds me of Vegas. I used to collect the coin buckets and bring them home. I used to love plopping a bucket full of coins into a hopper to get them changed up or taking the bucket to the cage! Bellagio used to give away very elegant gloves you could wear so your hands didn’t get dirty.

Because of the jet lag and my extreme excitement my first few days in vegas would start at around 3am - this is the time they empty all the machines of bills and the quietest time in the casino. I love that time, it’s and i can wander around with no crowds.

I’d always ring home about 4 am - midday at home. We always stay downtown I knew exactly where all the webcams and traffic cams were downtown, and I would often ring hom tell them which cam to bring up, get off the line, go wave for 5 minutes then ring them back!

Not been for a few years, I miss downtown!

I liked keeping the coin buckets too. Never thought about the cams though. Now we can skpe or video hangouts. I do notice the traffic is crazy now in Vegas, so crowded everywhere.

But that's functionally no different than the dearth of apparent imagery of UFOs, is it? So what are we left with, massive holographic manipulations, stacked dimensions of varying solidity, or could it be that the "powers that be" have a real tight hold on their own death star technology?

Once I retire I'll be able to go to some of the places I've heard about where odd things happen. That'd be fun.

And live, late at night, driving or even setting at home on radio: magic in the static.
Art was to talk radio what Wolfman Jack was to spinning the wax.

Used to listen to him on XERF from Mejico - you could drive the entire border and never lose his signal - and you talk about magic in the ether - wow.

I don't know about the whole karma thing but thanks. I recall driving to Vegas with friends and introducing them to Art over beers and long road trip there (kids don't do this) and the late night on the way to Vegas and they were mesmerized. "Who IS this guy?" "What the HELL?" A perfect storm: in the desert, middle of nowhere, listening on AM which would break-up a bit and I'd manually tune back in (old "dual knobby" car radio) and some crazy spooky topic and an electric storm. Was awesome. Better than Vegas was in recollection.

Absolutely @PB . No wonder no one wants to watch the Academy Awards. I use to like De Niro's movies.

"Casino" one of the greatest flicks ever, but do I want to know that Ace was played by a common egomaniac who beats people up for parking spaces?

I think it worked out better when there was some mystery about the entertainer in question, whether that was Art Bell, ballplayers, or Hollywood folks.  I sure liked sports a lot better when the only time we heard from the athletes was a few minutes in an interview after the game.
Athletes have nothing more to say to me that actors - play your game, save the monologues for your friends and family.

My mother lives in Las Vegas. My father liked to play blackjack, while my mother preferred to play the poker machines. I don't like gambling, so I'd just watch. Casinos are interesting places, lots of good people watching. Now the machines are all electronic, winnings are added to cards as opposed to falling loudly out of the machine, which added to the whole casino thing if you ask me. Kinda sad.

Oh man, it's been so long that the last time I casino'd they still had nickel slots and little cardboard tubs for the winnings - carbon date me.

@DynamoHum , YES! Filling up those buckets would be so exciting. I would cash in my coins and take my cash to the craps table.  So many "cowboys" were superstitious at the crap's table. As I laid my cash down for change at the craps table some players would pick up their chips. They were not going to play at a table with a female at the table. Let alone a redheaded female. As I would roll the dice and make my point, players would come back to the table. The best place to play craps was at Binion's Gambling Hall. However, you better know the odds on a win.

I haven't heard of Binion's. My parents then and my mother now don't go to the large casinos on the strip. They like the smaller ones.

@anniem , I have not been to Vegas for a few years.  Binion's was the place for cowboys and cowgirls. It is located on Fremont Street. I still play craps in Atlantic City NJ. The young players do not understand how to play the psych of this game, let alone the odds. Females are no longer considered bad luck at the tables. A good craps player studies the table before cashing in for chips. I look for a shooter who is wearing diamond rings. Actually I am look for a Tony Soprano that is throwing the dice. Will not play with someone who is using their shoe money.

I was alive and well when the casinos arrived in Atlantic City, but never visited them. We'd go further south to the beach. As a kid my parents had a friend who had a house in Bay Head, I have such lovely memories of that place.
You must do well at the craps tables, you sound as if you know your stuff.
Tony Soprano, that brings up a perfect image of what you are talking about. Did you watch it? When I was around 15 we had a nutty teacher for Italian in HS. He wanted to have lunch with a lady in Little Italy in NY so he created a "field trip" and took the whole class. When the bus arrived he opened the door and said "Be back at 4. Have an Italian lunch" and let us all go completely unsupervised. I wandered around the whole day and I recall seeing some Tony Sopranos hanging around some doorways. None of us had enough money to buy a restaurant lunch, but we had a good time site seeing.

Your teacher was crazy. He was lucky. All his students came back by 4! What a story. Great fun for the young to discover NYC.
As for the Tony Sopranos in real life, money follows money-sometimes.
Sometimes, I am a very good craps player. I need motivation to win. Long story short. Mr Fish lost too much money at a craps table. I was so pissed off!. I suggested to Mr Fish to go get more money. I was going to throw the dice! Not only did Mr Fish win back his money but also we both won "more" money.

I love stories of those who win there. I am not part of that sort of story. That is because I only very reluctantly will surrender my money and only do so in a very small tiny amount which does not take more than 10 minutes to lose. I think it takes more time to win.  ;D

The legenadry Frontier was host to "The Laydown Lowdon" nightly sports book show on KDWN with the local legend Lee Pete and his able assistant Donny Bader.

https://www.gamingtoday.com/industry/article/25123-Lee_Pete_dies

"We all just loved Lee Pete," said a former waitress from the old Rainbow Lounge, one of Pete’s hangouts when he lived in Las Vegas. "He was so charming with all that silver hair and pleasing personality."

Indeed, Pete was the toast of the town, a radio host who got 10,000 letters a year, who earned an income well into six figures, and who was once described by the sports talk fraternity as a scaled-down answer to Phil Donahue.

Standing about 6-foot-2 and weighing 220 pounds, it was obvious Pete was an ex-football player. During the late 1940s, he was a standout quarterback at the University of Toledo, where he lettered four times and once finished second nationally in total offense to Charley Connerly, the Mississippi All-American who later became an all-star with the New York Giants.

Pete was also a solid college baseball player, and once led the nation in batting.

After graduation, Pete was drafted by the Detroit Lions and traded to the Green Bay Packers. In his first season, he ripped up his knee in an exhibition game and was out for the season. The following year he broke his shoulder, which put an end to his playing career.

With his playing days behind him, Pete bought a saloon from a friend in Toledo. He soon tripled the business, expanded it and bought another one. Later he opened a successful restaurant in his home town.

One of the principals was the late Roy Walford, a dietary scientist, insane caloric restriction guy, but also a renowned and banned roulette counter in Reno.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roy_Walford

Walford is credited with significantly furthering aging research by his discovery that laboratory mice, when fed a diet that restricted their caloric intake by 50% yet maintaining nutritional requirements, almost doubled their expected life span.

Roulette winnings
In 1947, while on vacation during medical school, Walford and Albert Hibbs, a mathematics graduate student, used statistical analysis of biased roulette wheels to "break the bank" in Reno. They tracked the results of the spins, determined which wheels were biased, and then bet heavily on the ones which were unbalanced. The casinos eventually realized that Walford and his friend knew what they were doing and threw them out. A Life Magazine photographer captured the pair drinking milk and counting their chips in a photograph published in the December 8, 1947 issue. Their methods were also mentioned in the roulette book The Eudaemonic Pie by Thomas Bass. Different sources have the pair winning anywhere from $6,500[3] to $42,000. The high end is more likely, as Walford was reputed to have paid for part of his medical school education and a house from his winnings. The pair also bought a yacht and sailed the Caribbean for over a year.

Biosphere 2
Walford was one of the eight “crew members” who were sealed inside Biosphere 2 where they lived from September 26, 1991 to September 26, 1993. Walford served as the crew's physician. During his stay in Biosphere 2, the crew found that they could not grow as much food as anticipated, so Walford convinced the crew to follow his calorie restriction diet. It is claimed that this action “produced dramatic weight loss and improved health.”Despite this, in November of the first year the crew decided to open a cache of emergency food supplies grown outside of the bubble to supplement their meager diets.
Caloric restriction and ALS

Walford's death from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) has provoked consideration about whether his practice of caloric restriction (CR) may have contributed to, or accelerated, his development of the disease.

Walford himself speculated that his disease may have been caused by the combination of chronic hypoxia and exposure to carbon monoxide and nitrous oxide in Biosphere 2.

Absolutely @PB . No wonder no one wants to watch the Academy Awards. I use to like De Niro's movies.

Fast forward to now where if the football team owners want the players to show respect and not drive fans away, well, there must be something wrong with them (the owners)

Exactly what I say. Those quotes! Today I posted there to him the way he posts to people. He loves attention, so I gave him some. I can't say any of it was fun though, not like how it was before the hijack.

Hi, @anniem, I'm just dipping in to this thread as I get caught up after a very busy and intense few days.  ;)

I was at first surprised at how you were posting towards him, but then really glad, and gave you +1's several times when I could. Good for you!

I really do wish that everyone would just totally ignore him as if he didn't exist and didn't post, he'd go away eventually for lack of attention. I know he won't do that, but secretly I wish Bart would just put him in the zoo permanently, the stink he leaves here with every post belongs there.

What does "spinning the wax" mean?

Seriously? This has probably been answered, but it's reference to early records, made from wax discs by Edison. It means spinning the vinyl LP's, pre-CD's and pre-mp3's. Just in case it hasn't been answered.

I listened to Wolfman Jack too, once we could get his signal in NYC. +1

Did you ever go across the pedestrian bridge over to Main Street Station? They have a Hall Of Fame for record craps sessions all along the walls of the bridge ... one guy went for like 200 odd rolls!

I never managed to master craps, my dyscalculia kills me with it.

I did win a number of poker tourneys at Billions, they used to give out T-shirts that said you won a tourney there! The coffee shop at Binions was fabulous!

I am not good at craps, either, but several times I have won nicely at the harness track or regular horse racing track. What's my formula? I bet on the horse who is wearing the silk colors that I like the best for that race, especially if it looks good on that color horse. If the silks don't to it, then I just bet on the horse I like looking at. Nothing whatsoever to do with knowing anything at all about the horses.  8)

Once at Saratoga in upstate NY a woman got reallly angry at me and started cursing at me because I had just won the trifecta (three races in a row), and then a win, place, and show combination on the next race. I don't remember how much I won, they were all $2 bets, but it was a lot for the day. She asked me what my formula was for picking the hourses. I told her the truth about picking the horses based on the colors of the silks or the look of the horses and she got really mad at me, accusing me of lying and being secretive about my methods. She got even madder when I laughed, because I was in fact telling the truth. Go figure!  ;)

@starman , most of us in EllGab had our start in the old country. I have a different name in the old country. I rarely post in the old country. I am a small fry over there. I am not tough enough to hang out with the big boys. Or maybe I don’t want that type of interaction.
Being an Art Bell fan was reason I joined a “Social Media Forum”.  I joined the old country January 2013. After Art Bell's passing, I wanted more information regarding his death. I traveled back to the old county and ended up in the HW thread. Suddenly that forum shut down. Thanks to Bart Ell we have EllGab. I am also thankful for THE BARTCAST EPISODE 6 – KAREN JACKSON, AIRYN BELL.  Most of my questions about Art Bell's final days were answered. Yet, I remained in the HW thread. WHY?
During the summer, I had injured my foot. I was still employed before my injury. My better half is a retiree. Now I had an injury that require a bone stimulator. I had to wear that device on my foot for 10 hours a day. In November, my foot healed. During that time, my mind healed as well. My job had a very high potential for being harmed. I realized that it was time for me to resign from my job before, I was truly injured.  Hence EllGab filled a void in my life. In the HW thread, there are so many really smart people. I truly “like” so many of our members. I enjoyed all the clever comments.
As I was lament the passing of Art Bell, I realized that I was in the wrong thread. The HW thread has been hijacked. It started to feel like the old country to me. That one vs Parry—The Fisher King was my get out of town signal. I decided that it was time for me to take a stroll around EllGab.
It was sad for me to realize that the HW thread has 6250 pages and this thread has 28 pages.

Again, I thank @Bart Ell , @wr250 for the tech stuff. @ponyboysunset and @DynamoHum  for being so brave for hosting.

Posting in the other thread did let me see that mentioning a person who recently traveled seems to affect the person who is the main focus of that thread now. Overall, it wasn't fun, other people do not want the travel guy mentioned and doing those posts added to the hijack. So whatever, this is better.
I wouldn't go to Bellgab and tell them I don't like how they post there, I won't do that on the other thread. You are 100% correct, if not answered, ignored, he'd not be getting what he seeks. Here I really hope should anything change here that no one responds.

In the dark of the night, Art Bell was a light left on for the lonely, the insomniacs and the curious. Who is Art Bell's legacy? I looked up the definition of legacy.

@PB , I was employed by a large teaching university teaching hospital. While on the job, I formed friendships with many people with different beliefs and back grounds. I would often try to stay on the topic of food. The topic of food does not divide people. I do not stereotype people. However, I did see a pattern within the age groups. The role of religion is changing. So many people who are forty years old and younger view having a religious view as foolish. They are quick to point out that religion was the cause for the wars in our history.

@anniem , holy cow! You are here. I thought you would be "on the job" by this time.  Are you still chilly?

I was! I'm on PST and my shift starts at 6 am. I was on the train when I posted. I don't always post on there because the screen is so small and it is easy to miss messages and mistype.
The chillyness went away once I got away from the station near home, there are fields near and it was breezy. Once in town the buildings block the breeze and it was ok. My hands got cold walking in so I pulled them into my sleeve and was fine.

I adore Monty Python.
It was on the PBS station when I was a kid, and we watched them each week. One episode had them in a boat and they decided they would have to devour parts of each other to survive. In comes my grandmother to visit, wanted to see what we were up to and we had her sit down and watch with us.  She was FURIOUS that my mother would let us watch such awful stuff. Luckily, my mother didn't mind it.

Ah, found it.

I can recall the specifics.
On March 26th she posted screen shots from Facebook Messenger and informed everyone that he was now blocked (for the third time!).
How can a blocked person then wake her up by sending messages 2 weeks later?
Ms. Angie needs to come clean and admit to the class that she loves the drama.

I'm sorry for the confusion.  I was referring to the image below.  I don't know how the message was sent to her or the nature of the block.  Here is ignore, not block, so I just can't speak to specifics.

Art Bell...wow. I discovered Art in 93 . I have so many wonderful memories. He was the friend who hung out in Splendora Texas and just made me happy.
I love this thread. Lets celebrate Art. I have so many friends on Ellgab . I have enjoyed hanging out with yall and I am hoping for many more yrs to come.
We all loved Art...Coast to Coast, Sirius, DMDN...We had a common friend. Someone who scared the bejesus out of us and made the night go faster. We found out the crazy ppl called in and were awesome comic relief.
God bless Art Bell. The Godfather of paranormal radio.
Insert quick Long John Nebel citation for continuity...

@AngiefromNJ , greetings. Listening to Art Bell live was like being part of large group of people. In the dark of the night, Art Bell was a light left on for the lonely, the insomniacs and the curious.

Ah the lonely in the night insomniacs- done first and best by Herb Jepko on the Nitecaps show:



https://www.deseretnews.com/article/660195859/Utahn-helped-shape-US-radio.html?pg=all
Who was the most influential Utah radio host in the past century of the medium's history?

The answer may vary with whom you ask, but I'm firmly sticking with Herb Jepko, who used to host and produce the "Nitecaps" syndicated program, the nation's first nighttime network talk show. (He died in 1995.)

I'm reminded of Jepko's importance in the evolution of U.S. radio by the recently published book "Something in the Air: Radio, Rock, and the Revolution that Shaped a Generation," by Marc Fisher.

"The Nitecappers were truckers, little old ladies, night clerks and insomniacs who called Jepko's studio in Utah and chatted on about garden clubs, favorite recipes and recent illnesses for five minutes each, at which point a gentle ring would interrupt, and Jepko would say, 'I hear Tinker Bell' and it would be someone else's turn," Fisher writes.

He refers to "Nitecaps" as the early "C-Span of all-night radio," going from Feb. 1, 1964, into the early 1980s. In its heyday, the show had 10.5 million listeners nightly and was heard over 255 U.S. radio stations via the Mutual Broadcasting Network.

"Jepko, his voice an even, soothing Midwestern baritone — never judged, never criticized, never made fun. He didn't tell stories; he simply presided over a non-stop stream of verbal pittter-patter that sounded like a radio version of the quiet chuckles that passed for humor in the pages of Reader's Digest," Fisher writes.

@PB , I was employed by a large teaching university teaching hospital. While on the job, I formed friendships with many people with different beliefs and back grounds. I would often try to stay on the topic of food. The topic of food does not divide people. I do not stereotype people. However, I did see a pattern within the age groups. The role of religion is changing. So many people who are forty years old and younger view having a religious view as foolish. They are quick to point out that religion was the cause for the wars in our history.

Almost, but it wasn't religion per se, it was the "banksters" who discovered that by funding and debt-enslaving nations war = profit...for them!

Yes, I had no idea they were wax before vinyl. What about summer before AC?

Iirc, the masters were wax originally (I may have that wrong, maybe someone else remembers more accurately), cylinders, I think, but because they weren't very durable, Edison later developed a way to make metal masters which were then pressed onto blobs of shellac, which became the '78's we may know from our grandparents' and parents' collections of records. It was an evolving process.

And, btw, Edison actually invented the phonograph originally because he was very interested in capturing spirit voices, he believed in the afterlife and mediums, etc. and hoped to capture the voice of the departed that way.

True! +1

Sigh. Pre-Meadowlands, it was still a swamp back then.  8)

Saratoga several times, on TV other times, once in Florida and a couple of other places, I don't remember exactly. I never took it too seriously, it was just fun for me.

I did well on slot machines, too, now and again, but played the nickel or quarter ones, again for fun. I'd set a limit to how much I would bet for the day and stop when/if I lost it all. That way it was fun, not important, and I got to practice my hunches with no pressure to be right, no big down side, no real risk. Slightly better than half the time I'd be enough ahead at the end of the day to be able to have a really nice dinner somewhere or some other wee treat from the winnings.  ;D

@AngiefromNJ , greetings. Listening to Art Bell live was like being part of large group of people. In the dark of the night, Art Bell was a light left on for the lonely, the insomniacs and the curious. Who is Art Bell's legacy? I looked up the definition of legacy. The dictionary would define "legacy" as a gift or a bequest, that is handed down, endowed or conveyed from one person to another. Not one person stands out to me as his legacy.  :(
I don't think a person is really a legacy. To me, his legacy is the awareness of the many aspects of the paranormal that we all are interested in and share, and that sense of community in our interests is his legacy. He had a really big, important impact on so many people! There was no one like him in the radio world.

We've all been in that space, you have to start somewhere.

I found the culture there toxic enough to avoid it as a participant for years - but to be fair these so-called "fan groups" turning on their progenitors is nothing new it seems. The parasites consume the host in due time. That bothers me, it's a bit like:



But the recent action, led by Brig, to induce less stable types to livestream and youtube themselves for her boredom time gratification is heedless incitement to behaviors that have no built-in containment mechanisms. I guess we can say that Groyper isn't likely to actually use his Glock on a cat lady, despite his Twitter post...but...what if he's not any more stable than some others we've seen?

I still question why Twitter has left that pic up, but that's just me.

Here is a question, were you there with the same name as you are here?  If no, name was different, how come? Just curious. I was same name.

Different name - derivation of the one that Bart zoo'd here.

We've all been in that space, you have to start somewhere.

I found the culture there toxic enough to avoid it as a participant for years - but to be fair these so-called "fan groups" turning on their progenitors is nothing new it seems. The parasites consume the host in due time. That bothers me, it's a bit like:

But the recent action, led by Brig, to induce less stable types to livestream and youtube themselves for her boredom time gratification is heedless incitement to behaviors that have no built-in containment mechanisms. I guess we can say that Groyper isn't likely to actually use his Glock on a cat lady, despite his Twitter post...but...what if he's not any more stable than some others we've seen?

I still question why Twitter has left that pic up, but that's just me.

Back to point - if you are consumed by anger or like to act out at the extreme limits of the first amendment - bellgrab is the place, just know that its SCOTUS is functionally a one man panel - MV. :-X
@26 horses , the complex behavior of human beings is not easy to understand.  Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic theory of personality is an easy rule to follow.  All you need is social media to play out the show. I had to start posting in other threads for my own reasons. Not only did I dislike what I viewed in other members, but also, I did not like what I viewed in myself.

I've had the precise same non-reality interrupt occur and it can be a delicious headspace balm, if one lets it be so.

Love the Forbidden Planet clip, such a thoughtful riff on Shakespeare's iconic "The Tempest" that one was.

I still revere Cassavettes' 1982 version though the trailer online is bland. Molly Ringwald's debut film, btw.

Well, a musical interlude is in keeping:

Ah, the cylinders. Yes, I saw them. We had a field trip to...what was it, not a museum but where he lived and worked. They walked us through the lab and then into the area where his desk was. They showed us the clock that they said someone ran in and stopped the moment he died.  I can't tell you how much I wanted to sit there and read through all of those papers!

How very cool! And of course Edison, NJ is named after him. I read a lot about him when I was very young because he and I share the same birthday. Later I found out so did James Joyce, and I read a lot of his work in school, but he wasn't really my cup of tea after that.

Edison, btw, was close friends with Henry Ford, and they spent a lot of time together in Florida down near Ft. Myers on the southern gulf coast, the southwestern part of Florida. They had estates next to each other, which are now part of a museum and historic site:

"Edison and Ford Winter Estates  www.edisonfordwinterestates.org

The Edison and Ford Winter Estates contain a historical museum and 21 acre botanical garden on the adjacent sites of the winter homes of Thomas Alva Edison and Henry Ford beside the Caloosahatchee River in southwestern Florida."

Whatsa IPO?

Initial Public Offering, when a company first goes public from being private and offers shares to the public in one of the trading platforms in the stock market. Usually sorta fixed, offers made to insiders at the best price, then the public gets the leftovers after they have already started to jack up the price of a share.  :P

Happy day to you @Starman2018
Hi anniem! Hope your having a little sunshine on your face in your neck of the woods.
Art Bell fascinates me as an entertainer. I don't go around wearing Art Bell socks everyday (wink) but ya, I'm a fan. I looked into some of his background after catching a couple of his shows because of the uniqueness of his live broadcasts. His early years included radio, Ham radio. electronics just to name a few. He said he loved radio in his interviews and it certainly showed.
Group participation time! Your in a large dark room. Your eyes are closed and you hear foot steps echoing as they approach you in the dark from behind. They stop directly behind where you are standing . Then you hear Art Bell say " Do you believe in UFO's?" What a voice. A voice made for radio lucky bugger :) . The guy was at the right place at the right time with the right show. I think if his health was not as bad as it turned out to be he could have had another great relaunch in today's world. His passion was radio without a doubt. I'm not taking this post to the report on his passing. I'm sure the family has had enough of possibly seeing that discussion. He had a creative streak and I'm sure he would not have had to solely depended on live callers. He delivered great interviews with guests even when there were no open lines. Was he perfect? No, Was he awesome at what he did? In my books oh yeah. Art delivered the goods and four hours of live radio with him was never boring. Does anyone actually know how many of his own shows in total he did as the host in his career?

I adore Monty Python.
It was on the PBS station when I was a kid, and we watched them each week. One episode had them in a boat and they decided they would have to devour parts of each other to survive. In comes my grandmother to visit, wanted to see what we were up to and we had her sit down and watch with us.  She was FURIOUS that my mother would let us watch such awful stuff. Luckily, my mother didn't mind it.

Ah, found it.
http://www.ibras.dk/montypython/episode26.htm#16 (http://www.ibras.dk/montypython/episode26.htm#16)
In my Navy days, Monty Python came on at 11pm on Friday night. This was well before cellphones texting or messaging so me and my Navy bud would tune in then call each other and chat and laugh about that nights episode. Tech has come a long way. lol. " Nobody expects the Spanish inquisition!" :)

Right. My father listened to him when we lived in NJ, he didn't sleep very well. My father also was likely looking for info because he saw a UFO one night while walking the dog.

I completely agree. He tried, and I think it was too much for the sick old guy. Do you think someone really shot at him?

Good idea.
One could count the number of shows in that ultimate collection, but I hear that there are still some interviews on cassettes in drawers. I also think the prep for shows is harder now than it used to be. I really was happy to hear Karen in her interview say that he was the happiest he'd ever been towards the end of his life - he brought a great deal of happiness to many many people.

I don't think a person is really a legacy. To me, his legacy is the awareness of the many aspects of the paranormal that we all are interested in and share, and that sense of community in our interests is his legacy. He had a really big, important impact on so many people! There was no one like him in the radio world.

Art's legacy is his body of work.  No one can simply copy another entertainer, athlete, etc, and become just like them, or we'd have seen someone do it by now.  I don't think we'd want that anyway.

Usually sorta fixed, offers made to insiders at the best price, then the public gets the leftovers after they have already started to jack up the price of a share.  :P

And almost inevitably, once the buzz is over, at some point the shares of most companies fall to a price lower than the IPO price.  Usually before the 6 month lock up is over (when the insiders who didn't sell their shares during the IPO are allowed to sell them).

When the company sells more shares to the public, it called a Secondary Offering.

To me, that's laughable.  I think he liked the idea of doing a show, but coming back realized he didn't want to do it anymore.  Instead of taking a huge amount of flack for quitting - yet again - he decided to go out in a blaze of glory.

That it backfired so completely, and turned him into a laughingstock in certain corners of the internet, is also part of his legacy.

Q:Do you think someone really shot at him?

I'm not sure to tell you the truth. My Dad had COPD that contributed to his passing so I saw how struggling for each breath 24/7 could be a difficult thing to deal with especially for a broadcaster of his popularity doing live programs and maintain the quality he was known for. Art mentioned in some broadcasts he always wanted the best audio for his shows and was proud of the results. Then again, he also mentioned he was concerned for the safety of his family and I can relate to a statement like that. I was not his neighbor so it's just my take on things with admittedly really no first hand knowledge. Did anyone else in his neighborhood officially report the sounds of gunfire that night? It's the desert so sound especially at night will carry very well if close by. I really didn't follow that incident after Art spoke about it on the air.

I do sometimes. Still good. But especially if a "new" one pops up somewhere on the interwebs or I find one in the archives that I missed. I like the folks who recorded the whole show also. Sometimes I get confused and then realize the weather report or whatever is from 20years ago and not even about my area. Also the local commercials or local news is funny. Flashback. And, strangely, how much of the world hasn't changed: big "weather event," some bombings in the Middle East, traffic, some wars in the same places, illegal immigration, etc.

Me too. I truly hope that his close family and friends can remember him as a family needs to on that day and not have to deal with unnecessary distractions or interruptions at their home.

Thank you anniem. That was very kind of you to say. COPD does indeed make the day long struggling constantly to get air. He had a great sense of humor and I have nice memories of the past when I think of him and I sharing a laugh. I also share those moments with family and friends from time to time and it puts a smile on my face. We all know what it's like to deal with sorrow and heartache in one way or another. I prefer to enjoy the wonderful memories of him that pop up unexpectedly here and there as we travel the yellow brick road. (Insert Hippy moment of reflection): After all, from the moment after we are born, we only get one chance to do our best to get it right and enjoy life as best we can. Of course, some Art Bell open line callers might argue with my (one chance) statement. Said in my best Art Bell voice-" Tonight's show. Time travel". Wink..wink.

They do. I have long hair,  some other brands don't stay put. The airs are new, had a problem with the multifunction button and they were fast to set me up with replacements.

At night I have a pair of "ladies' sports earbuds (I forget the brand, not terribly expensive, got 'em in Target) that has a weird rubber movable tip that actually goes into the ear canal a bit and stays put, sort of like the old cell phone high-end ones I had that sat in my ear the same way. I could still hear everything else, but at least these stay in place.

Oh, how complicated technology can be!  ;)

MRI came back. It said "words words words, things and stuff, words stuff and stuff" Nothing terrible, but there is some things not right. I have no idea what it means, nothing terrible. Some  structural business. Let you know more after the next doctor visit.

Earlier today, I listened to an old Art Bell show and really enjoyed hearing the show.
I am now listening to Phil Hendrie's Art Bell parody clips. Just too funny.

I'm not sure to tell you the truth. My Dad had COPD that contributed to his passing so I saw how struggling for each breath 24/7 could be a difficult thing to deal with especially for a broadcaster of his popularity doing live programs and maintain the quality he was known for. Art mentioned in some broadcasts he always wanted the best audio for his shows and was proud of the results. Then again, he also mentioned he was concerned for the safety of his family and I can relate to a statement like that. I was not his neighbor so it's just my take on things with admittedly really no first hand knowledge. Did anyone else in his neighborhood officially report the sounds of gunfire that night? It's the desert so sound especially at night will carry very well if close by. I really didn't follow that incident after Art spoke about it on the air.

We had a scare when we had to have COPD ruled out for my mother. Luckily it only ended up being exertional asthma. I thought there was corroboration from the neighbor who turned out to be feather. So who knows, I had the impression that it was a true thing.

I do sometimes. Still good. But especially if a "new" one pops up somewhere on the interwebs or I find one in the archives that I missed. I like the folks who recorded the whole show also. Sometimes I get confused and then realize the weather report or whatever is from 20years ago and not even about my area. Also the local commercials or local news is funny. Flashback. And, strangely, how much of the world hasn't changed: big "weather event," some bombings in the Middle East, traffic, some wars in the same places, illegal immigration, etc.

They are still good. We've been listening to the old shows recently. I don't think we came across any weather reports and whatnot, but I'm sure it is just a matter of time. So many years, so many shows.  :)

No problem, really don't worry. I have some arthritis in my foot that has basically locked the toe. It hurts quite a bit and I intend to have it fixed. Years ago they found chronic synovitis in this ankle and it can be bothersome, so I figured if I am going to to have foot work I might as well see what is going on in the ankle. If something can improve that, well, we'll be right there anyhow so "all at once" makes sense to me. Next appointment will be in the summer, there is no urgency to it all. Thanks for asking!

Thank you anniem. That was very kind of you to say. COPD does indeed make the day long struggling constantly to get air. He had a great sense of humor and I have nice memories of the past when I think of him and I sharing a laugh. I also share those moments with family and friends from time to time and it puts a smile on my face. We all know what it's like to deal with sorrow and heartache in one way or another. I prefer to enjoy the wonderful memories of him that pop up unexpectedly here and there as we travel the yellow brick road. (Insert Hippy moment of reflection): After all, from the moment after we are born, we only get one chance to do our best to get it right and enjoy life as best we can. Of course, some Art Bell open line callers might argue with my (one chance) statement. Said in my best Art Bell voice-" Tonight's show. Time travel". Wink..wink.

AH, this was the message I wanted to get back to. My Dad also had a great sense of humor. There were ongoing jokes we had and he comes to mind when something he would have had a response to comes up.  Those sound like the things you describe as memories that pop up. We were all also taught to always do our best. My mother told us that when they got married and started to have kids they decided that they wanted to have fun with us, not living in a strict ways loaded with rules. There was one rule mainly. "We are known in town, do not embarrass us."

I have some ancient Realstic brand phones like that - good old Radio Shack, they made some decent stuff in the day...
I like this style, or yours, because you can hammer out a strong treadmill workout and never pop an ear bud, and how anoying is that!

But they're due to be replaced, yours look aces.

I like them. Earbuds just are never comfortable. I wonder if it is because I have small ear canals, or so the ENT doc said they were small. I can hear very well. There was ONE pair of ear buds that were terrific, they were comfortable sennheisers that had a great sound. The ear buds now seem to seal up your ears and I don't like that at all.

Well, that's the main thing, I'm glad to hear that.

I've had gout (which is a form of arthritis) since my 20s, when I feel it coming on a couple of glasses of cherry juice clears it right up (along with a couple ibuprofen to get rid of the related swelling).  Some people say 'tart' cherry juice, but any kind words for me.  Less pleasant is apple cider vinegar, but that also helps quite a bit.  If you haven't already tried them, you may want to.

Cherry juice!  Have not heard of that. I will see what I can find. I'm happy to have some stuff to try, specifically it is hallux rigidus. So the arthritis irritated the bone with grew to prevent damage from the arthritis...I need the excess bone taken away and some sort of implant (I think it will be skin from a dead person) put in there after the joint is re-built. I just was not able to drink ACV, but I have tablets I take instead. I plan to take the time off for that right before vacation right next to retirement and that will be that.
Can you prevent flare ups somehow?

Works better if I start drinking it early in the flare-up cycle, but suggest she try it for a few days - and have some on hand for the next flare-up

There should be plenty of info on the 'net about it

Yeah, I take tiny sips of the vinegar (or dilute it with water) but I suppose it could be consumed as salad dressing or whatever else vinegar is used for.

The cherries / cherry juice may be specific to gout, and not beneficial for other types of arthritis, I don't really know

As far as preventing flare-ups, I haven't had a serious one in a very long time - I think it's because I go right for the cherry juice if I even think one might be coming on.

I know!!

This is absolutely, definitely a proven scientific fact.  8)

And yes I do have thoughts about Bluetooth. I don't like the idea of any radiowaves I don't have to be around buzzing around me, especially from a headset sitting next to my brain! There are a bunch of studies starting to come out that using bluetooth headsets instead of wired ones, especially those people who just wear them most of the time, can cause inflammation and possible cancerous tumors in the brain near where the headsets sat.

In general, it's better to use a wired headset with cellphones, and not to carry them on your body, either, for the same reasons... tumors are more frequent at sites where cellphones are carried a lot in contact with the body. I really worry especially about men who carry them in their back pockets all the time, or in a pouch or directly on their belts. Convenient, maybe, but not a good idea. The phone should ideally be at least a few inches away from your body (which is why you're better to use a wired headset than hold the phone to your ear a lot, also).

I'll bet you didn't expect a term paper on that now, did you? But those are my thoughts on this.

As for blue teeth, interesting as that concept is, I think I'll pass. It's too biting a concept for me to deal with at this time.  ;D

P.S. I finally just remembered the brand of the old cell phone headsets that had the earpieces that worked for me: Jabra. Probably out of business, I'm guessing?

Radiowaves buzz around you whether or not something is there to receive them. The antenna in blue tooth headsets just picks up what is present. It doesn’t attract it like a magnet.

More likely to get an ear infection from always having earbuds in your ears.

Gout is much more rare in women then in men, but lucky me! My Dad and brother had gout issues, and I got a horrible flare-up about 10 years ago that was the most painful thing I have ever experienced other than surgery for Crohn's, and the gout was worse because it took a full week to calm down! And yes, I used tart cherry juice and an herb, maybe black cohosh? not sure, but they sure helped a lot. There is no good Rx for gout, really the cherry juice is the way to go. For me, the tart stuff was much better, but whatever works... just make sure sure sure it has no added sugar, that will keep the inflammation going. Also knock off the alcohol and sugary foods till the gout subsides, in olden times it was called "the rich man's disease" because more wealthy men with rich diets were the ones who got it most often.

People who wear bluetooth earpieces all day have their phones with them too, usually on their body. Otherwise, why wear a bluetooth earpiece if you're not going to use it with the phone? It picks up the close-by phone radiowaves whether you're talking or not.

I never have earbuds in unless I am actually on the cell phone during the day, and I take the ones that help me fall asleep out just as I'm drifting off, years-long habit doncha know.

You're smart to eschew bluetooth at close range, especially head range.

I believe these old style Radio Shack foam tips can be used over traditional ear buds too.

I really worry especially about men who carry them in their back pockets all the time, or in a pouch or directly on their belts. Convenient, maybe, but not a good idea. The phone should ideally be at least a few inches away from your body (which is why you're better to use a wired headset than hold the phone to your ear a lot, also).

I'll bet you didn't expect a term paper on that now, did you? But those are my thoughts on this.

+1 and confirmed  - short wavelength RF and soft tissue is a really bad combination.

As for blue teeth, interesting as that concept is, I think I'll pass. It's too biting a concept for me to deal with at this time.  ;D

P.S. I finally just remembered the brand of the old cell phone headsets that had the earpieces that worked for me: Jabra. Probably out of business, I'm guessing?

Not at all - making plenty of good stuff yet:

Call centers seem to have boosted their business. :-\

Radiowaves buzz around you whether or not something is there to receive them. The antenna in blue tooth headsets just picks up what is present. It doesn’t attract it like a magnet.

Some bluetooth headsets transmit back - they're not all passive.

https://www.rfsafe.com/bluetooth-radiation-dangerous-cell-phone-radiation/

Bluetooth radiation has been even less studied than cell phone radiation. The lack of any formal studies has enabled the ‘experts’ to claim that Bluetooth radiation is safe. This claim is based not on research proving Bluetooth radiation safe, rather on a lack of research proving it to be unsafe – but that is changing quickly.

Bluetooth radiation emitted from all Bluetooth Headsets and Technologies and is a type of wireless radio wave frequency (RF) also known as microwave radiation.

Microwave frequencies have a short wavelength and a rapid rate of oscillation (2.4 billion times per second) very well suited for data and voice communications as well as cooking your dinner at a much higher wattage.

Multiple studies have reported that as short as a single, two-hour exposure to cell phone or blue tooth radiation will result in pathological leakage of the blood-brain barrier. The effect occurs immediately and is still seen at 14 days and at 50 days post-exposure at only 0.012 W/Kg to 0.002 W/Kg.

The lowest exposure SARs are worse than the higher SAR exposures (Nittby et al, 2009).   These studies show neuron death (brain cells) at SARs of only 0.012 W/Kg.

It is reasonable to conclude that a device which radiates at a higher intensity than some cell phones are very risky in terms of your accumulated exposures.  So Bluetooth radiation may be equally or more dangerous than cell phone radiation in some cases.

Biker vs. Squirrel

I never dreamed slowly cruising through a residential neighborhood  could be so incredibly dangerous ...

I had been banging around the roads of east Texas and as I headed back into Dallas, found myself in very heavy freeway traffic. Two near misses with a couple of brain-dead drivers within seconds of each other convinced me it was time to get off the freeway.

I hit the next exit, and as I was in an area I knew pretty well, headed through a few big residential neighborhoods. I turned onto the nearly empty streets and figured some slow riding through the quiet surface streets would give me time to relax on the final leg of my ride home.

Little did I suspect…

As I passed an oncoming car, a brown furry missile shot out from under it and tumbled to a stop immediately in front of me. It was a squirrel, and must have been trying to run across the road when it encountered the car. I really was not going very fast, but there was no time to brake or avoid it—it was that close. I barely had time to brace for the impact.

Animal lovers, never fear. Squirrels can take care of themselves!

Inches before impact, the squirrel flipped to his feet. He was standing on his hind legs and facing my oncoming Harley with steadfast resolve in his little beady eyes. His mouth opened, and at the last possible second, he screamed and leapt! I am pretty sure the scream was squirrel for, “Banzai!” or maybe, “Die you gravy-sucking, heathen scum!” as the leap was spectacular and he flew over the windshield and impacted me squarely in the chest.

Instantly he set upon me. If I did not know better I would have sworn he brought twenty of his little buddies along for the attack. Snarling, hissing, and tearing at my clothes, he was a frenzy of activity. As I was dressed only in a light t-shirt, summer riding gloves, and jeans this was a bit of a cause for concern. This furry little tornado was doing some damage!

Picture a large man on a huge black and chrome cruiser, dressed in jeans, a t-shirt, and leather gloves puttering maybe 25mph down a quiet residential street…and in the fight of his life with a squirrel. And losing.

I grabbed for him with my left hand and managed to snag his tail. With all my strength I flung the evil rodent off the left side of the bike, almost running into the right curb as I recoiled from the throw.

That should have done it. The matter should have ended right there. It really should have. The squirrel could have sailed into one of the pristinely kept yards and gone on about his business, and I could have headed home. No one would have been the wiser.

But this was no ordinary squirrel. This was not even an ordinary pissed-off squirrel.

This was an evil attack squirrel of death!

Somehow he caught my gloved finger with one of his little hands, and with the force of the throw swung around and with a resounding thump and an amazing impact he landed square on my back and resumed his rather anti-social and extremely distracting activities, completely removing my left glove in the process.

I was startled to say the least. The combination of the force of the throw, only having one hand (the throttle hand) on the handlebars, and my jerking back unfortunately put a healthy twist through my right hand and into the throttle.

The engine roared as the front wheel left the pavement. The squirrel screamed in anger. The Harley screamed in ecstasy. I screamed in…well…I just plain screamed.

Now picture a large man on a huge black and chrome cruiser, dressed in jeans, a slightly squirrel torn t-shirt, and only one leather glove roaring at maybe 70mph and rapidly accelerating down a quiet residential street…on one wheel and with a demonic squirrel on his back. The man and the squirrel are both screaming bloody murder.

With the sudden acceleration I was forced to put my other hand back on the handlebars and try to get control of the bike. This was leaving the mutant squirrel to his own devices.

At this point the squirrel decided that I was not paying sufficient attention to this very serious battle and he came around my neck and got IN my opened full-face helmet with me. As the faceplate closed partway and he began hissing in my face I am quite sure my screaming changed tone and intensity. It seemed to have little affect on the evil rodent.

Now picture the large man on the huge black and chrome cruiser, dressed in jeans, a very ragged torn t-shirt, and wearing one leather glove, roaring at probably 80mph, still on one wheel, with a large puffy squirrel’s tail sticking out his mostly closed full-face helmet. By now the screams are probably getting a little hoarse.

Finally I got the upper hand…I managed to grab his tail again, pulled him out of my helmet, and slung him to the left as hard as I could. This time it worked…sort-of. Spectacularly sort-of, so to speak.

Picture the scene. You are a cop. You and your partner have pulled off on a quiet residential street and parked with your windows down to do some paperwork.

Suddenly a large man on a huge black and chrome cruiser, dressed in jeans, a torn t-shirt flapping in the breeze, and wearing one leather glove, moving at probably 80mph on one wheel, and screaming bloody murder roars by and with all his strength throws a live squirrel grenade directly into your police car.

I heard screams. They weren't mine...

I managed to get the big motorcycle under directional control and dropped the front wheel to the ground. I then used maximum braking and skidded to a stop in a cloud of tire smoke at the stop sign at a busy cross street.

I would have returned to fess up (and to get my glove back). I really would have. Really. But for two things. First, the cops did not seem interested or the slightest bit concerned about me at the moment. One of them was on his back in the front yard of the house they had been parked in front of and was rapidly crabbing backwards away from the patrol car. The other was standing in the street and was training a riot shotgun on the police cruiser.

So the cops were not interested in me. They often insist to “let the professionals handle it” anyway. That was one thing. The other? Well, I swear I could see the squirrel, standing in the back window of the patrol car among shredded and flying pieces of foam and upholstery, and shaking his little fist at me. I think he was shooting me the finger…

That is one dangerous squirrel. And now he has a patrol car…

I took a deep breath, turned on my turn-signal, made an easy right turn, and sedately left the neighborhood.

As for my easy and slow drive home? Screw it. Faced with a choice of 80mph cars and inattentive drivers, or the evil, demonic, attack squirrel of death...I’ll take my chances with the freeway. Every time.

And I’ll buy myself a new pair of gloves.

AH, this was the message I wanted to get back to. My Dad also had a great sense of humor. There were ongoing jokes we had and he comes to mind when something he would have had a response to comes up.  Those sound like the things you describe as memories that pop up. We were all also taught to always do our best. My mother told us that when they got married and started to have kids they decided that they wanted to have fun with us, not living in a strict ways loaded with rules. There was one rule mainly. "We are known in town, do not embarrass us."
I know how you feel. The military police on the base knew my Dad so when they were on patrol and saw us out late they would roll down the window and say " Are you Georges kids? Get home now! And we would run all the way. Very little wiggle room to get into any serious trouble but we did have childhood adventures for sure.

Hey FISH. Was the Phil Henfrie show recorded somewhere. I'd like to give that one a listen as I have already heard TLPD. BTW, when I saw your Art Bell post I heard it in his voice as I read. lol. Go figure. :) What better way to honor the guy than with an Art Bell quote.
Still no reliable official channel reply on my question to the electronic highway wondering how many shows total Art Bell did as a host. I'll also throw it out there from time to time in other rooms. I'm sure I'll get a bite eventually. Have a great day and cheers for now. See ya on the flip side. :)

@Starman2018 -In remembrance of Art Bell, Phil Hendrie was playing for FREE audio and video from his Art Bell impressions over the weekend. There is YouTube video with poor/low sound. :(

A few days ago I posted this story. It will help you to understand my sense of humor.
 @sean92008 greetings. Death itself is never funny. My four grand parents’ funeral services were not held at a funeral parlor but in a "home".  As a child, I remember having Granny being laid out in our front parlor. Granny was spending her last night above the earth with her family.  In my kitchen, I heard my family talking about Granny, including humorous experiences. I was taught that telling “funny stories” about the departed is not considered disrespectful.
While Granny was laying out in our parlor, my brother and I got into a pushing fight. We almost knocked Granny and her coffin over. We got into BIG trouble. We were sent to bed. My mother was so angry with us for fighting so close to the coffin.
As I lament the anniversary of Art Bell’s passing over, I have been listening to Phil Hendrie. Phil is sharing an ART BELL MARATHON. Laughter is good for the soul. I took a pass with C2C. I went with humor as a means to pay tribute to Art on 4/13.

So...  Art made Hi-Fi VHS recordings of all the early shows...
I think I read that the tapes were handed over... maybe not, maybe it was just referring to the ownership of the intellectual property rights... Maybe Airyn will push for "legacy" permission to convert them if she has possession.  Yeah, pretty unlikely...

Eh, nevermind.

@Starman2018 -In remembrance of Art Bell, Phil Hendrie was playing for FREE audio and video from his Art Bell impressions over the weekend. There is YouTube video with poor/low sound. :(

A few days ago I posted this story. It will help you to understand my sense of humor.
 @sean92008 greetings. Death itself is never funny. My four grand parents’ funeral services were not held at a funeral parlor but in a "home".  As a child, I remember having Granny being laid out in our front parlor. Granny was spending her last night above the earth with her family.  In my kitchen, I heard my family talking about Granny, including humorous experiences. I was taught that telling “funny stories” about the departed is not considered disrespectful.
While Granny was laying out in our parlor, my brother and I got into a pushing fight. We almost knocked Granny and her coffin over. We got into BIG trouble. We were sent to bed. My mother was so angry with us for fighting so close to the coffin.
As I lament the anniversary of Art Bell’s passing over, I have been listening to Phil Hendrie. Phil is sharing an ART BELL MARATHON. Laughter is good for the soul. I took a pass with C2C. I went with humor as a means to pay tribute to Art on 4/13.

Hi FISH. Thanks for sharing. I have family on my Dads side from the UK so I understand the tradition of someone passing and having a service in the home. Looks like you and your brother had quite the spark. :) . Phil has Art down to a T! What a hoot! Lmao.Btw. Inside joke= I'm off the eggnog for good now. Christmas will never be the same after tonight. ;)

Well, not every show with a classic, it is incredible stuff that still deserves to be heard. Hell, KOGO radio in San Diego plays Somewhere in Time every week...  Some of the stuff is quite timely.

By the way, Hi-Fi VHS is really decent quality for a talk show.  It would sound perfect as if it were recorded yesterday.

One big *IF*:
If the tapes haven't gone bad. If they are stored in the desert, there is a good chance they'll be okay.

@starman , In the year 2019, funeral services have been reinvented. Yesterday, I attended a "Celebration of Life" funeral service. There was a beautiful little box on a table-the ashes. The departed one's son-in-law gave a heart touching eulogy. He spoke for about 5 minutes. My IRISH DNA does not have a cold heart. My memories went back to the old ways of lamenting a death in a home that lasted over 24 hours.
The funeral director asked if anyone wanted to share a memory of the departed one. No one volunteered to speak.

How can I turn off iPad autocorrect?
Sometimes you just don't need Apple's iPad dictionary telling you how to spell. The feature can be helpful but sometimes it's not the best at recognizing certain words and proper names, etc.

To turn auto correct off:

1. Navigate to Settings -> General -> Keyboard

2. Touch Auto-Correction -> OFF

If there was one person who would have a justifiable concern about the legacy becoming available, it's George.

I mean, Somewhere in Time is still run on a considerable number of stations. Art's show was and is still unbeatable. There's no way to battle a ghost and a side-by-side comparison of the two programs makes that ghost look bigger and badder than ever.

If there was ever a time that the fox was guarding the henhouse, it is with those tapes and George Noory involved.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if they offered access to those archives at an even lower price and directed that money to medical care for veterans or something of the sort.

Eh, nevermind.

@FISH, that would be the way to lessen resistance by George or the network.  If there was a concerted effort, who could say "no" to puppies or veterans? No one could!  To ultra make sure it happened, a fund to give veterans puppies would be the necessary emotional manipulation to make it happen.

The famed UFO researcher died Monday at Toronto's Pearson International Airport, his daughter Melissa Friedman confirmed Tuesday.

Wasn’t where to put this but here goes anyway...

I am ashamed that I haven’t shown this on here before, but Marital Unit and I like to buy each other geek things that would be meaningless to other people yet OMFG to each other (his framed art made from the exact length of Kraftwerk’s Computerworld cassette album for him, an art print of the entire script of The Princess Bride for me etc).

So a few years back he bought me a book.

It’s an Art book - literally.

It’s a book containing a collection of Art inspired by Mel’s Hole.

Apologies for all the pics, but anyway here’s my highlights, as well as the ISBN number in case anyone wants to try and get a copy.

Any true Art Bell fan from his heyday must include Ramona as part of the "fanship."  How does Heather handle this?

Does she fantasize that she's Ramona? Who's (RIP Ramona) Ramona to Heather?

Could the #legacysquatting have been a desire to reverse cowgirl?

While I don't know what the catalog includes, Art had said that there was a Hi-Fi VHS recording of each show. Hi-Fi VHS audio what is the equivalent of 15 ips (inches per second) reel-to-reel audio quality. Better than anything you would have heard unless you had satellite reception of the network feed.  One can only presume that they are digging through those tapes.

I could speculate that the issuance of these recordings could be to establish ownership versus all the streaming services that play old Chancellor Broadcasting editions of C2C.

or, more likely:

IT COULD ALSO BE THAT THEY JUST NEED THE FRESH BLOOD BECAUSE GEORGE IS NOT DRAWING ENOUGH NEW SUBSCRIBERS.

George said they were scattered all over the office.  No doubt some are damaged or lost, perhaps they've been moved around at least several times since they were acquired from Art. 

I'm not picturing Noory being all that concerned about them, or even understanding their significance.

Was it tapes or were transcripts being sold?  I remember in the real early days he used to pitch them.  Maybe pre-1998? Pre-1996? 

I'd imagine low quality high-speed copying would leave a lot to be desired.

Too bad Art or CBC decided to disclose the existence of the Hi-Fi tapes... I'd imagine the only ones who knew the tapes' true value would be all the time travelers and maybe Ramona.

@TigerLily As is the norm where the movie, or interview never really ever really never ever ever comes close to the book. If I could stand sit still or remain stationary for more than 20 minutes I'd surely dive in to many books.  I thought Gere was good in the movie.

Damn Straight.   :)
Art was fresh and excited to be broadcasting. The program material, although it was new, didn't really matter that much. It was Arts' enthusiasm I tuned in to listen to.
At that time, I was rolling with a $300.00 late 60's beater, 2-speed, 2-bbl, 350 cid, rusted to shit, but with a strong drive-train and a Solid-State AM (only) radio. It just depended on how the skip was bouncing, as to what AM channel I could pick Art up on.
I popped a 1/4 wave magnetic whip on the trunk lid - excellent ground plane (sw 1:1.4) -  and would park, listening to Art, while I waited to see what was happening for the night on the CB.   :)

Hey guys, saw a post on Reddit last week that a Youtuber has been uploading episode's of Art's "Area 2000" show.  Did anyone catch them, or better yet save them? 

Of course, the Youtuber deleted the videos, but when I google their name I can see an archive that looks like they uploaded at least an episode from October 24th, 1993.

Here's the post from Reddit:
"A user name, sable lidara, on You Tube posts Art's Area 2000 shows on and off. I listened there to his last Area 2000 show before his going to Dreamland, an interview with Lazar, and others. The shows are recorded off KDWN Las Vegas. Last I looked, only an old zombie movie."

Seems like there haven't been many(if any) new Art Bell recordings discovered in the last few years, so these would obviously be a pretty incredible find.

I'm going to continue trying to get in contact with the Youtuber, and will update here if I have any luck- but I wanted to reach out and see if anyone here maybe was able to catch them while they were up.

Thanks!

Considering Art had "turned over*" high-quality in-studio tapes, anything we hear is a treat.  I wish Art bootlegged himself.  There's a reason C2C/Premier has been playing Somewhere in Time and started selling "the vault."

25-year old Art is worth more than 25-hour old Noory.

*Likely all the tapes were physically handed over when CBC was sold, thus the vault is possible.

Hopefully, somebody in at PremCrap will release them like someone did all the Beatles outtakes while that was being digitized.

I had a guest on MITD before I was dumped that worked with Art and Lazar on that program, and said Lazar probably has the tapes. It was the first I'd ever heard of it. Michelle and I both reached out but haven't heard anything back.

If it's the same person I'm thinking of(can't remember their name or anything), I was actually able to get a CD from him.  Iirc, he was selling stuff on ebay as well as promoting on Bellgab?  My memory is hazy.  Anyways, I remember being excited for a lot of 1993 and earlier stuff, which it was, but it wasn't Art Bell interviews.  It was John Lear talking with maybe George Knapp, etc.  He might've been holding out on me, but there weren't any Art Bell recordings that weren't already in circulation.  I remember it having the same 1992 Bob Lazar/John Lear interview that was uploaded maybe 8 years ago.

I'm really hoping something comes from this Area 2000 lead, I reached out to the user again.

What a sad state of affairs modern media is in...

An Art Bell show from 6/6/96 is getting my mindspace instead of the news of the world.  An Ed Dames remote viewing PREDICTION show, no less 24 years old!!!

The news is so horrible and twisted. I know Art Bell had issues. Yet, he knew how to entertain us.

... funny, the Ed Dames show was... horrible and twisted 😁😁😁

If Ed Dames is trying to stay in business today, Somewhere in Time must give him the sweats.  Dames said "there's no turning back" (paraphrased) on all the babies dying from ecological damage...

Great entertainment, agreed.  Noory sells Art's 20+ year old shows to keep subscriptions up.  A double-edged sword. It shows how great Art was and how bad George is.

Tonight's DMDN AB replay was interesting...

They were talking about Donald Trump's decision to run for president and somebody asked how Art was doing and he said he was doing fine.  The caller speculated that Donald Trump might quit and jumped out of the race and Art replied that people were saying the same stuff to him, not to drop out of the show again...

The rights to “Midnight In The Desert” have been acquired by a private holdings group managed by Bell’s former show producer David Rubini, who has been named Operations Director and Executive Producer, succeeding Keith Rowland who founded the Dark Matter network.

Like its original incarnation, the network will originate from flagship oldies/talk KNYE (95.1) in Bell’s hometown of Pahrump, located in Nye County, Nevada; hence the voice-over catchphrase, “from the Kingdom of Nye.”

Midnight in the Desert” will air 9pm-midnight Pacific/midnight-3am Eastern, hosted by Nathan Stolpman (Monday-Thursday), Alexis Brooks (Friday), author and researcher Mike Bara (Saturday) and director and actor Sean Stone (Sunday).

Yes I do. I find U7 has broadcasting issues from time to time. Not sure if it's on purpose or legal but they tend to be off air here and there with no official  announcements. Seems they are a come what may station. Still, it's cool to here Art working the magic on a quiet night at home and I don't have to stay up until 3 in the morning to enjoy it live. Those were the days. lol. :)

The Truth About My Friend Art Bell

A couple of days ago I got a call from a close friend who released me from my promise to keep everything I knew about Art Bells passing a secret. I don’t know exactly what has changed but my friend released me from the secret and so here goes.

My friend Art Bell committed suicide April 13, 2018. Art killed himself with an overdose of prescription pain killers which included  oxycodone and hydrocodone, the sedative diazepam and the muscle-relaxant carisoprodol in his system, according to Clark County Coroner John Fudenberg.

You and I will never know the final thoughts that drove Art to take his own life but I suspect it had something to do with an affair he was having that someone was threatening to expose.

Art left a recording, in his own voice, a will, that outlined 40 specific instructions about what he wanted done after this passing. Art left well over $10 million in his estate.

Please don’t ask me for any additional information because I don’t have any. Art and I weren’t all that close after 911 because he had trouble accepting it was an inside job.

But Art has always given me credit for starting him on the road the paranormal which led him to millions of listeners world wide.

I was listening to some the Art of Talk

- Art didn't actually charter the flight to save the ophans in Vietnam. What actually happened was there were stories circulating that the North Vietnamese were going to kill or treat very badly the bastard children of American soliders with Vietnamese women who were put in orphanages. Art raised money to help pay for the flight another organization was involved and seemingly handled the logistics. This is much more believable than what that spurned lover of Art's had to say.

- When Art was at KDWN the guy who had the over night job just read the newspaper and would hardly take calls. When Art took over he solicited more calls. The Plaza hotel where the broadcast was stationed from previously paid for the phone bill as the radio station would promote them. When Art took over the phone bill jumped to $12,000 or something so hotel refused to pay for it.

- Art quitting and coming back was nothing new. Art frequently quit jobs. When he was at KDWN the station manager would frequently hire and fire him. He would also frequently quit.

-The owner of KDWN fired Art for a few minutes when Art was pissed off they wanted to get rid of the news break. Art said he needed the break to piss and get coffee and take a break. The owner eventually capitulated.

-KDWN refused to carry the full show so Art went to a different affiliate in Vegas.

Thanks for posting this.  I gotta go back and listen again.

I forgot about that...  Humm, so Art succeeded a Heather-type failure. 

I kind of regret not getting an autographed copy of that book (and others) at the 2005 fundraiser for the Henderson, Nevada library.  $1 or $2 at the most. If I recall, there were a few of each title. Maybe my memory belies me and Art was actually there signing copies and taking all the Asian girls' phone numbers.  🙄🙄🙄🙄

This is the same rumor trolls were passing in bellgab. Not one actor in the story has verified any part of that story. Not a single One take it with a huge grain of salt.

Heather, Karen, and Airyn have all said that story is bunk. Although Heather maintains is was a suicide. But the details are 100% different.

It’s also worth noting the pills in his system were not in and of them self enough to kill someone. It was they fact he had been in them so long and it had built up in his system and the fact he had severe underlying medical conditions that killed him.

I don’t know what happened. But I dont believe anything Lear says or Heather for that matter.

I have never seen this before. Interesting clip leading up to Sirius show launch. I did follow Arts page and had a chat with him online just prior to his return. It was an exciting time weeks before the relaunch but hings quickly turned sour and in the end the plug was pulled. Arts personal life aside, he was a great entertainer and had the voice and the know how for radio. No mistaking who it was when ever the mike went live. I wounder if actual numbers were available, if any polished professional broadcasters today ( ya know, those who really know what they are doing) reached his listening audience totals? Just a thought. Any how thanks for posting this Bart. It was cool to see. Cheers for now.

The guy who was on Art's show years ago as time traveler "Single Seven" just did an interview with the Unbeliever's Podcast talking about it.



Thanks for the link. I am going to give it a listen tomorrow.

Her voice was different.

I am guessing that is the $2.99 a minute voice that Old Perv Art thought would get his shut-in audience hard.
Very different from the "I am now a professional woo talker so take me seriously because I sound like Art" voice that came later.

I'm kind of wondering here, just what am I supposed to be noticing about Heather's voice and am I supposed to be outraged by what ever?

It's not like I had any problem recognizing it. Her voice sounds a bit higher but nothing that really would matter, to me at least.

I just noticed it was higher...more feminine I suppose and the cadence of her voice was also different. I don't think you need to be outraged, I just noticed it first off and kept wondering if it would change more to what she sounds like now (or at least the last time I actually listened) and it didn't. Once, I noticed her speech pattern change to what I would consider her "normal". But what do I know? Just surprised me is all.

I thought she sounded pleasant and friendly before.  Now she sounds like she's trying to sound like Art.  It's offensive.

Granted, it's been years since I've heard either iteration of her voice.

One of my kids was like that...  Nice, courteous and well-mannered...  Until getting what he wanted.

I attributed that to the circle of entitled athlete teammates of his...

That shit ended.  I stopped giving him shit going 7 years on. He'll pay for that as long as I remember how much of a bastard he was for that 6 months.

With Heather, I'm sure she still thinks she's all that.  It's always everyone else's fault a la Falkie, etc...

I am currently listening to the station Art Bell worked for in the mid-70s, speculated to be about 1972 through 1978 or 79.

1320AM the former KUDE, now KKSM, a community college radio station...  better than any commercial music radio station I've listened to in a while.

Callers saying stuff that Art so loved to hear:

Can you hear me?
I wanna talk to Art Bell.
Hold on Art, I gotta turn my radio down.
I called you a few minutes ago Art and I got cut off so I'm calling back to... 
Are you Art Bell?
Yes, I'm calling on a cell phone.
   Just to mention a few.

Art handled calls well.  Much better than Larry King in the early 90s.  I bet King had hearing problems then, but still...

Art toyed with stupid and evil people with equal skill.

I agree 100%.

The best part was afterwards Art would summarize the call and topic into something interesting.  But that was Art doing it, not the caller.

Olin from Culver City was a regular caller. YUCK

The worst of all time, PRE ANDYmunda was   "Ello' Aht, it's Jeff from the UK"  from the Kidnostadgiest area of the region with the most heavily sissified accent a man could have.  My prim proper father n law born in France and raised in Montreal sounds like a beer swilling hockey goon BC logger next to JEFF from the UK!

Hey Guys,

I've been downloading the episodes of Area 2000 uploaded to Youtube as I see them, it seems like Sable Lidara keeps them up for about a week before deleting.  I don't believe I've missed any, but the 1-30-1994 show mentions it being the SECOND to last episode before Art switched over to Dreamland.  It would be great to get the 2-6-1994 as that would be the last episode of Area 2000, but again, I don't think it has been uploaded to Youtube.

Listening to AB soon after Kathy Keaton Guccione's death. Dr. Gold talks about hydroxyzine sulfate...

I've heard this show before but I didn't remember that someone abandoned a pitty mix puppy near his house. Does anybody remember what became of this dog?  He announced it as a new member of the family and that Keith came up and took photos of it.

Also, I am "house hunting" outside California...  Does anybody know of a prefab home with a full poured concrete foundation/basement? It seems practical, the house could be at ground level. It's just never done in California.

I'd rather have a full-finished basement with a smaller house and attached garage... On a large lot with rabid dogs protecting the perimeter.

I watch too much This Old House, I see all those poured basements with styrofoam forms and great mechanicals, heat pumps and air exchanges...

Pahrump is still on my radar although, Billings, Montana might be in the lead...  COSTCO is in town!

Since 1999: Ed Dames - whenever he was a guest in November or December LOVED to scandalize with "This will be the last Merry Christmas" Numerous appearances with Art and then with George! Nobody ever called him on it either but perhaps 99 was the perfect year for it because Y2K was just about to happen but when it didn't he still persisted on Grinching up as best he could to traumatize those who's houses may or may not have tires. Guy loved the soft sound of his own voice more than his Russian mail order bride.

"Ed Dames" I never was impressed by him. Sounded like the kind of guy that liked to tell stories around a campfire just because he could. Oh! By the way, I'm Batman!  Just kidding. See how easy that was.  ;)

If Ed Dames went into the woods with a group overnight, I doubt he'd make it back.

Listening to U7Radio, on is the GabCast with Art (and Falkie AND Heathdacted - in her real voice) right after departing from Sirius...

George Noory sucks.

BTW...  I hate two people talking over each other... Add a third and I wear out quickly.

I can't say a date, but it was apparently soon after Art had his blow up with Sirius XM. They were discussing it as if it was still very hurtful and they were upset.

It was wild to hear it on U7, quite the shock. Then, when I heard the topic... I was actually glad to hear it again.

The old Art Bell website CD guest list as this show dated 05/15/2002:

Ingo Swann & Paul H. Smith
    Ingo Swann, the father of remote viewing, is internationally known as an advocate and researcher of the exceptional powers of the human mind, and as a leading figure in governmental and scientific projects to investigate and identify the scope of subtle human perceptions. Paul Smith, former military remote viewer and Vice-President of the International Remote Viewing Association, was a student of Ingo Swann.

and the earlier November 5th, 2013 edition of "The Spec-Sheet with Curtis Thornton" and Michael VandeVen and Jazmunda calls in AND even George Noooooory shows up for some phone time.

Went on an open lines binge last week from 96 when the Freemen were the big thing. Actually it was more like the Freemen, Chupicabra, and  "BOB DOLE"  Art had a particular way of speaking the name "BOB DOLE" it was quite intriguing. The Freemen debates and many varied opinions were bandied about. All in all it was about eight open line shows over a two week period (back then) and was very entertaining.  96 through 9/10 01 were the best years of the show. Art had a real tude and high desert zip in his voice in those years.  Ahh

I agree, it being "in the rotation" at U7 is great.  MV's earlier show the "Michael VanDeVen's Radio Trainwreck" was a decent show that at one point had 50,000 monthly downloads.  He started that show after getting married in Morocco and coming back to the USA in 2009.

I have many "The Gabcast" "MV's Radio Trainwreck"  "The Bellphiles" and "The Spec Sheet" playlists on VLC that I listen to.
MV has had some interesting interviews.

Well, the tears are flowing.... That was beautiful and Art would've loved it.
I listen to Art every night via The Eye, and when I get to the end of the list, I start all over again. For some reason I can't let go.... I miss all my dear friends on the Fantastic Forum (if any of you are on here and remember me, send a message). I miss Art's occasional posts to us on the FF, letting us know he cared and was following us, his mentions of us at the end of his shows. He would email me occasionally when I asked about his health; I treasure them, have them saved electronically and in printouts, but all that will soon be dust, end up erased in a landfill as I, too, am facing the Grim Reaper. I hope with all my heart I will see Art on the other side, along with my FF pals....

Yeah we have all that normal stuff from postal codes, mailmen/women and mailboxes at the front door. I am straight up north of you in the same time zone.  I just waved..

I must apologize.  After looking through my AB books I was surprised to find The Quickening amongst the others. Not signed but.. meh  It must not be a very good book because it's in pristine condition and I have obviously never read it past the mid way point of the first chapter where the bookmark still is.

The woman caller sounded a lot like Dr. Zasio from Hoarders! No, not a lot alike, exactly alike.

Been listening to quite a bit of Art lately while driving- primarily through U7 Radio.  Dark Matter Digital Network has even had some replays of MITD.  The Paranormal Radio app really makes it easy to access.

It's amazing, and actually depressing in a way , how much better he was than anyone else I've heard.  Almost equally sobering is how many shows out there currently are superior to Coast.

I absolutely do not remember any of the episodes I've seen in the first season so far. Even one of the doctors wasn't around after the first year and Dr Auschlander wasn't a key player. It really helps answer a few of the questions especially after Terence Knox's character was killed, now I understand why David Morse's character eulogized him. (I'm forgetting their TV character names now...  Boomer and Peter White?)

I always thought that Cynthia Sykes played Cindy Martin. Now I realize that it's a lady named Barbara Winnery.

Still, it's interesting to see these first season guest stars there's some pretty big names that came out of that show, to see Tom Hulce play a crime victim and the guy that drove him into the ER was on Murphy Brown, I think, and he later killed somebody and then killed himself. Then Jane Kaczmarek played a nurse for three episodes... Wild.... 

I love me some Google.

Anyways, I do the same thing. Classic Art binges but there are those sobering moments when I, or you, realize you're listening to two dead men - IE Art & Terrance McKenna, or Art and Father Martin just to name a few.

The one that guest that was extremely impactful to me was when Bob Guccione and his wife were on talking about how the FDA shut down some cancer treatment trials.

Shay, if you’re not already doing Over The Air (OTA) TV, you can get a very inexpensive indoor antenna and watch it on a digital OTA channel.  “Barney Miller” is on AntennaTV.  I believe you’re in the Pittsburgh area and there’s a local AntennaTV channel.

For a one time cost of around $20, NO recurring charges, and you can watch Barney on a regular basis, along with a bunch of other stuff.  Free, free, free!  :D

The new tunes are crap. Nothing like The Beatles' "Free As A Bird," that's for sure.

Benny and Bjorn didn't have hundreds of good songs on the cutting room floor (yes, a film reference...). They weren't prolific songwriters. I remember Bjorn saying everything they wrote to the end ended up on record. If they didn't think a song was going to end up on a record, they would stop working on it before it was finished.

They must have changed their rules 🙄🙄🙄

I was hoping for less melancholy and more merriment. An opening with those two voices going at it. I love a lot of deeper Abba tracks, but these were real deep ones.

In addition to the Beatles Free as a Bird release, there was another comeback song that I was judging the Abba release against... Kome Kome Club, "Welcome 2." Energetic, full of happiness and celebration. Oh, wait, this is ABBA we're talking about...

The video is tied up in legal crap and Sony has it pulled whenever somebody posts it... Here's the song though:

You can also listen to weekly Art Bell “Somewhere in Time” broadcasts on AM stations across the country, plus here.

For example, you can listen online to SIT on Saturday night, from 8:00 to midnight CST on KLVI.

The C2C website shows the particular Art Bell Saturday show to be aired that Saturday, usually from 25 to 26 years ago.  It doesn’t usually update until late Thursday of that week.

I had six of them bookmarked on my internet radio app (XiiaLive) 2-3 years ago.  With the exception of U7, they are all gone.  I remember reading IHeart got cease and desist orders to shut them down, but apparently they came to some agreement with U7.

I am listening to an episode of Dreamland with Robert Morningsky. It was about the time that his Art of Talk book came out. Morningsky was announcing his retirement too.

Who did the voiceovers for that show? It wasn't Ross Mitchell.

I may be wrong but I do think Ian did.
Yeah, I think I remember that but wasn't sure. Still sad, but understandable considering PremSuck.

Advent radio and dreamland usually work but dreamland screws up the speed of the streaming when the show ends and another starts. Which can be a tad startling if you just fell asleep.

This comment reminds me of old-school 1970s Radio. Shows used to be distributed by vinyl. Spoken word programs, mainly religious would put the commercials in and everything. They ran perfectly to schedule if the turntable was running at the correct speed.  Any country bumpkin could run a radio station running these discs. I'm sure it was costly for mailing. Another thing I remember seeing in an old station (Magic 91 in El Cajon, California) were open-ended interviews. Where the local DJ would ask the questions that came with the record.

@KSM, that's a great idea. I have a Bluetooth box that is just abhorrently bad... If you switch modes, it makes a sound about as loud as a smoke alarm. The only way to avoid that high-pitch beep is to put in a thumb drive.

How old is that thing @sean92008 I'm guessing 4-8 years but it looks 24-28.

Listened to an old classic from 98 last night and once again it dawned on me that Art really should have left well enough alone and never, ever, returned to radio after his pre Dark Matter retirement in 2013. Sure there were some good shows in DM and the MITD stint but all the mystique of the guy in the hiiigh desert was gone as he became like just another BellGabber and the curtain completely lifted and a somewhat flawed human being was revealed. Won't even go into the Redacted thing.

I agree. And there's something depressing about hearing Art's "old man" voice so clearly on those shows.

I thought Art was never really the same after his first retirement in 1998 or so. There were a few good/great shows but the "spark" was somewhat gone after that.

But as mentioned, even Art on his worst day was 1,000 times better than Noory could ever hope to be.

The *spark* was Ramona. That first retirement was partially about his son. But also the changes in terrestrial radio. We're lucky we have his catalog. Enough have stood the test of time and others are great because of how badly they didn't

Nailed it: @GhostRaven His old man voice so loud and clear, and a little slower from the classic 90's "Hiiigh Desert" zip broadcasting in the normal radio frequencies.

After awhile with all the drama and him and everything else on Coast/BellGab the thrill was gone.  For me the best was up till September 10th 2001. After that it was still damn good but once Ramona died.. That's it! Downhill fast.  Not like he didn't have money at any of these junctions..

Art went from being The King of The Night to The Drama Queen of Pahrump.  When he sold out and became just another PremRat galley slave, things started going downhill.  Ramona passing away sure didn’t help any.  He lost his trusted and competent business manager and Art didn’t like being a PremRat lackey.

I finally had to stop listening when he was doing the part-time thing from Manilla (or was he still doing some weekend shows after he came back, I forget the timeline).

When Art was just doing just a few weekend shows a month, he seemed to only be doing what must have been his favorite subjects - consciousness, after life, Hoagland, remote viewing, and so on, instead of a broad range of subjects one would need to do to fill 20 some shows a month. 

Turns out the subjects he was most interested in were the ones I had usually skipped in the past.  The last of those I listened to was some new age chick going by Starfire Tor.  I finally had to turn it off and leave it off.

I think I listened to a few Dark Matter shows, and maybe one or two of the After Midnight shows.

After all the begging for him to come back, clearly he should have stayed retired.   But at least we know, instead of wondering what a return would have been like.

Ramona ran the damn show. She knew how to produce. Hell, she knew how to run a board, and probably the satellite gear too. I swear there's a recording of her show floating around. Maybe Art played it but I have doubts about that.

It must have been tough for Airyn to follow that act and I'm sure she worked hard in trying to keep his focus on her.

I wonder who she's doing... An ex from the Philippines or one of his old buddies. Stories of young Filipinas having their true love waiting in the wings while she is off setting them up financially is more common than we'd think of in the west because of their abject poverty. (Filipina Pea on YouTube addresses that often, including married women doing that to ensnare men and then extorting the American because that's adultery and an enforced law when they feel like it 💲)

When will she get out of that hell hole of Pahrump? When the kids graduate high school? College? After she brings the entire family over in chain migration?

Was wondering that myself just a few days ago. It's got to be odd to still live in Art and Ramona's double-wide on the compound!! Just fucking weird.
Agreed, Ramona was a HUGE part of the show in its glory days 94-2000 IMO She picked most of the music too. I still hate some of that music but for the most part I dig it. Year Of The Cat being my fav with that shithole reggae version of I Can't Help Falling In Love With You. Who did that cover? Good God it's bloody awful.

I still listen to the old shows. I didn’t start listening to Art until around ‘99. There was nothing like driving around the southwest listening to him in the middle of the night. When he came back from Manilla it never had the right feel. I liked the idea of some dude broadcasting from his garage in the desert. By the time DM and MITD happened I wasn’t interested in the whole satellite thing. I liked the grittiness of the earlier years. Sounded like you’re just listening to someone on HAM radio.

It will never be like it was. Everything is so commercialized and stylized it’s so cotton candy now I don’t even listen. And I’m an insider. It’s asinine really.

Yes, I still enjoy the old shows.  I’ll usually listen to a least part of the weekly “Somewhere in Time” shows on Saturday night.  Most of them are well over 20 years old, but I still find them entertaining.  They really do take me back in time.

It is a very odd situation.

I wish they would release some old shows that aren't already floating around the internet. I wonder how much is even left. I know Noory said there were VCR tapes all over. Someone needs to convert those because they do degrade. But Premier obviously isn't going to do that, though they have no issues marketing their Art Bell vault which is only a partial achieve of recordings that can be had elsewhere.

It’s time consuming to digitize the tapes.  One has to play the tape in real time into a computer.  One of Art’s five hour shows would take five hours.  Take into account time to set up the computer and tape machine, cue the tape, then edit out commercials or blank spaces (I don’t know where in the stream the recording was done), add the announcements as to date, etc.  and it will take one employee a full work day to do one show.  Even considering the employee could do other things while the tape is digitizing, would PremRat get enough revenue to cover the cost?

5 hours for 1 show when Snoory is putting in a solid 5 hours a week. It would take a century to digitize all the old stuff.

With simple Windows-based software like Audacity and a multichannel interface, they could record numerous audio channels simultaneously.

If Art did stereo (his voice on one side, guest on the other), that would take up more channels, but be invaluable.

I don't know if there's a practical track limit in Audacity, but a decent computer could handle 24 channels of audio to capture. 

Spend $100 on some multi track software and you could effectively record 48 channels.

In theory 4-8 weeks of shows in 5 hours if they have enough decent VHS machines.

After digitized, editing is a snap. Hard break times being the easiest to find. Looking at wave patterns will find other breaks, even if a live read because his cadence will change.

I heard an old show where a chupacabra song was referenced. I don't think it was the one that was a sound alike of macarena because the guy talked about it differently. So, I looked for it on YouTube and I found this, something that was done before his death. I can't understand the lyrics, something about night...

I have virtually all, if not all of the classic stuff in mp3 format. Took ten years plus of full on collecting from every corner of the net. Many years ago, like 15-18 there was a platform called WinMX where I found a few hundred that kicked things off as far as my library goes. I think WinMX ia still around but it is very different now.. seems dark-web-ish or some shit.

I knew a paramedic who worked in the Alberta oil fields who had literally everything Art ever did. A whole lot of nothing to do while sitting around waiting for some rig-pig to injure himself so Art was his recipe for sanity and passing the time.

I was listening to it last night so I just checked and it’s working for me on tunein. “The very best of Art Bell (U7Radio.org)” on tunein. There’s one called “Advent Radio” that usually works. Another one called “Dreamland” works but is annoying on my device. When one show ends, the next some starts up at 2x or 3x speed.

What was the point of Dreamland? It was just a condensed C2C on Sundays. I never liked the intro either. Also, Art speaks spoke different on Dreamland than on Coast. The whole thing was pointless! Should have just been, 'welcome to coast to coast am, Sunday'

Also, @Uncle Duke the Paranormal Radio App has about three 24/7 Art streams. If you're not into whatever is on one you can switch to another.  Or, I could send you 110 gigabytes worth of the motherload (but I didn't say that out loud)

In the early to mid 1990s, Art's c2c was not paranormal stuff but just open lines with a lot of political talk, especially anti-Clinton.  His regular callers at that time were ones like "Doc Democrat" and "Charlie Liberal" etc.

So Art's Sunday Dreamland show was different than c2c then - and was paranormal topics with a guest interview and weekly reports from Linda Howe.
I think there was a predecessor to the Dreamland show was called "Area 2000" but I didn't know about that at the time.

Eventually Art got tired of politics talk during the week and gradually started introducing paranormal and other topics with guests during the week too.

I’m listening to this week’s SIT.  Remember cold fusion?

“Art Bell - Somewhere in Time returns to 6/10/97 when Dr. Eugene Mallove spoke about cold fusion and free energy.”

Mallove is a fast talker, kind of sounds like a more sane Hoagland, although not by much. 

Since cold fusion ended up going nowhere, I was curious what Dr. Mallove was up to.  Hmmm... taking a dirt nap, apparently.  He was murdered in 2004.  :o

It is very odd. Maybe she continued her explorations under her real name (if Crystal was the stage name).  Maybe she's a survivalist and saw the end coming...

I know with Ham call signals, you can get an address. Can you find out if it's an active account that way though?

Listened to the EVP recordings with Brendon Cook and Jimmy Chunga from Dark Matter in October 2013. I always liked the EVP shows with Brendan and Barbara. They had good chemistry and it’s interesting to follow their progression from their first shows using analog back in like 2001 to their later shows in the late 2000s using all digital.

So last night im listening the new guy. And the recordings are off the charts. Sounds like they have demons running around growling. It’s pretty funny how the oldest shows were muffled recordings usually guesses as to what they were saying to crystal clear monster growls making evil threats right into the microphone.

Don’t know if they ever appeared on MITD, never I’ve yet to listen to any of those shows.

Listening to an old Art Bell show from 2004 with a guest named David Race Bannon talking about his supposed career working for interpol going after child sex trafficking. He even wrote a book about it called Race Against Evil. He had been on with Noory in 2003. I think I remember hearing both of those shows and had doubts about some of his claims but he did refer to real cases that were prosecuted.

I decided to look him up to see what became of him. Well if you are going to make up lies about working for interpol and then brag about your career in a book and on a radio station that used to have a large listening audience you might find yourself in hot water. He got arrested and plead guilty in 2006 to criminal impersonation.

Sean David Morton isn’t the only bullshit artist that went to jail. Now if they could get David Adair and that dude Basagio that claims to have been sent to Mars with Obama. Let’s see who else… Johnathon Reed. Bugs the Bigfoot killer. Ed Dames. Can’t touch Silvia Browne or John Lear. Mel. Poor Madman Marcum. Al Bielek. Can’t miss Bob Lazar although I’m pretty sure he’s backed by a 3 letter agency to fuck with China and Russia.

I guess I need to start looking at Pahrump real estate again. It did look like the AC units were taken out though. Maybe that's why there's two pictures of the CHU without a top on it.

I know there's a WalMart in town, Costco is 70 miles away...

I wonder if they're on city natural gas, city water and  sewers although I wouldn't mind a septic system if they even do that in the desert.

I like gardening and it was tough in the Vegas valley.  Mainly because the water kills many living things it's so hard.

Guest was "the female version of Art Bell," Dr. Tess "Flirty Asian Author Babe" Gerritson. Her 2nd appearance, I believe.

George Fucking sNoory couldn't pull this shit off.

George is unable to relate like that. His life is a shit encrusted bucket of vomit.

Listening to “The Ultimate Art Bell” channel on TuneIn

I listen to these past shows a lot. The show that is on right now is the first Hilly Rose show I have ever heard on any of the TuneIn shows. I’m guessing June, 1999 based on the news that the Russians were in control of the Kosovo airport. Just surprised I haven’t heard any past Hilly Rose shows. Very Noory-esque. Not quite as bad. He passed away sometime in December 2017 at the ripe old age of 91.

@GravitySucks, good observation on the Hilly Rose shows.

I think I remember those along with that other guy. I wonder if there are recordings out there and they just haven't posted them because they're not Art, or if there's just so few of them that they never pop up in the cycle.

Ol' Hilly filled in less than a dozen times.

I preferred Barbara Simpson. I believe her years were 99 - 2002, and then.. big George stepped in. And here we are.


I listened to the show from 9/10 2001 a few nights ago. Was a packed show that kicked off with a chirpy RCH, then on to crop circles. Last segment was a long arduous discussion on (about/explaining) pirate radio.

Just finished listening to tonight's somewhere in Time. It was Stanton Freeman on. At the end he says that he's going to have major Ed Dames on the next night. Maybe that's what was so great about art bell, his guests were bigger names of the day. Nowadays, the show gets a lot more riff raff.

Listened to a show from April of 1999- the Trumbull County, OH UFO show- which featured recorded police dispatch audio.  It was a bit hard to hear in parts, but quite a show.  Earlier today I listened to the Mr. Fidget show from 1997 I believe.  The creator of the fidget toy called in from a payphone in Santa Cruz, CA, and probably half the show he served as the impromptu guest.  He would get people who came by to say hi to Art.

RIP Art, Kenny Young (Trumbull Co. UFO show guest who died of leukemia in 2005), and payphones.

I don’t know about MITD or Snoory. I vaguely remember him speaking with Art Bell years after he failed to fill all the orders he received for fidgets. It might have been on Dark Matter.


There’s at least one episode of the gabcast where he was a co-host.

He was on twice with MV. That I know for sure. Memory fails on this one - was he unable to fill orders due to such overwhelming demand or was he just cash-grabbing and taking his sweet ol' time?

There was also another caller in the 90s with Art Bell, Steven Gibbs, that built small "time machines"
He sent Art one of his prototypes and Art took a photo with it.
However Art never had the courage to try the device out since you had to plug it into a power outlet!

He gave out a phone number although he doesn't seem to be associated with the business any longer, if it's even open, 888-50-VIRUS... A Las Vegas based medical thing...

Then I found this on Dr. Leonard G. Horowitz.

You'd think any competent lawyer would have known the guy's case was unwinnable.  I'm guessing he had an attorney who was hoping Pfizer would view the action as a nuisance suit and settle out of court for a nominal amount, but with enough within his/her contingency fee to cover the legal preperation.

Yip!  I love it when that happens. We were driving to the ocean a few weeks ago and all the sudden Year Of The Cat came on. I have no idea what station she had it on but it sure had the Art bumper music feel. Weird, but I never would have liked any of those songs if not for that radio show. And if not for the music of the 90's being so awful I never would have listened to that radio show.

I was listening to U7 the other night and they played a replay of the gabcast from I think November 2013 when Art Bell had quit SiriusXM. That surprised me they played something not in the C2C archives.  It’s a shame EmVee took down ufoship.com. I might have the old gabcasts in podcast form somewhere.

I liked the gabcast interview EmVee did with Art after he quit MitD. Thought it was well done.

If you want to discuss old Art Bell shows was any guest more wrong about predictions than Gordon Michael Scallion? Well besides Hogue, Hoagland, Dames and that dude that’s in prison for tax evasion. Or any of the hundred or so random “psychics” that called in for the annual predictions shows.

Before I ever heard of Art Bell, I vaguely believed, or wanted to believe in bigfoots, UFOs, all the various spirits, etc.  On those, and so many other subjects his guests convinced me it was all BS.  So while I enjoyed listening, I never went back and listened to old shows.

I saw a UFO when I was a kid, so I'm sort of torn about what I think about the subject.

Thats when they played replays.  Also in the 90s on Sat and Sun nights they played replays from the shows earlier during the week.

Probably. Listen to the interview with the intent of noticing Strieber’s vocal mannerisms.



If I remember correctly someone either called in, fast-blasted or faxed a message to Art with the accusation causing Art to go into a very clumsy denial stating he wanted to include Strieber in the interview but he wasn’t available.

There's a new series on Amazon Prime. The whole first season just dropped a few weeks ago starring Josh Brolin. Still looking fine and craggy even better than his sons, though the bull rider, is very nice. But I digress. It's called Outer Range and the main character is this giant hole in the ground that suddenly appears ... then disappears ... then appears again. Everything that gets thrown into it including people eventually reappears but changed somehow. Much more complex than this but I don't want to give too much away.
Excellent show. Now just where do you think they cooked up this idea? Ceiling ghost Art and Mel should sue

I was listening to U7 the other night and they played a replay of the gabcast from I think November 2013 when Art Bell had quit SiriusXM. That surprised me they played something not in the C2C archives.  It’s a shame EmVee took down ufoship.com. I might have the old gabcasts in podcast form somewhere.

I liked the gabcast interview EmVee did with Art after he quit MitD. Thought it was well done.

If you want to discuss old Art Bell shows was any guest more wrong about predictions than Gordon Michael Scallion? Well besides Hogue, Hoagland, Dames and that dude that’s in prison for tax evasion. Or any of the hundred or so random “psychics” that called in for the annual predictions shows.
I have a bunch of Gabcast downloads (Art Bell related folder) I agree, MV did a great job with Art.  Gordon Michael Scallion is IMO the absolute worst of all regular guests Art had on.

@PB You have never listened to a c2c show recording, you say.  Do you think anyone who does needs professional help? I admit it; I am a full fledged nerd with those old shows.  I used to load my work phone up with classic episodes and do floors. I should point out that I was careful to make sure I was alone in the house as I was embarrassed to play them while the home owner was around. wouldn't want them to think I was a little... "off"

Speaking of cranes, an old little league teammate was a military crane operator...  Couldn't get licensed in California for some reason (probably a DUI or failing to pay child support...) In Vegas now, making the big bucks.

Safety first or forty-first?

I think all crane operators make the fairly big bucks. The guy I was referring to earlier made over 100 an hour back in 95.

Art operated a crane back in Okinawa, Kabira Bay.  I once , for a brief time knew a chick who had a really long neck..  NM

I listen to old Art Bell shows on several different channels on TuneIn but there are some guests I just cannot tolerate. Jonathon Reed. David Adair. Any of the EVP shows. Vampires. Strieber. Ed Dames. Silvia Browne.

There are probably a couple of others. You would think that would wipe out listening most nights but not really. I can usually find a show to listen to by switching channels. I guess I have fallen asleep so many times listening live that it’s easy to doze off listening to replays. Every once in awhile I hear a show that I don’t remember hearing before. Those are the nuggets.

It’s amazing that I listen to these old shows and tolerate Art’s constant bitching about callers with cell phones

I remember listening to Sylvia Browne of course with 20/20 hindsight and she was assuring listeners a lost little boy would be found and he would be "fine". Yeah if dead is fine. I remember he was found in a ditch naked. Even his death wasn't " fine". The nasty shamster. The one that to me always seemed to have the best track record was Sean David Morton. But he did generalized predictions on large issues. And he was the one that was indicted on some kind of fraud scheme. The most ridiculous one was "kill shot" guy. I can't even remember his name. I always wanted to yell at him, "Where's Art's gold?" He even scammed money out of Art. Ed Dames, that's it. He also moved from Hawaii to Ukraine because it would always be the safest place on the planet
Art's show was always best when you could suspend disbelief and just enjoy the ride. He was a great interviewer and storyteller

Lily, you want to yell at Ed Dames? I don't know why, but I always gave and still do give him a pass. Something about the smugness of his delivery makes me like the guy. I like Whitley too. His tales over the years became so outlandish as he almost outgrew aliens and was experiencing time slips and other phenomenon. 

I'm willing to bet that Dames no longer calls Ukraine home. For two reasons.

Nope, Art never got rid of Ed Dames - he kept having him on regularly as did Noory when he took over.
Dames I seem to recall did give coordinates for the buried gold, but nobody ever tried to retrieve it there?
And it was Noory that banned Sylvia Browne after the miner incident.

I do recall Art would always promote Dames and Morton by saying they have "more hits than a mafia don" ;)

Dames told Art that he found the gold in the quantities he had conjured up in the RV session in the entire general location he had provided at those coordinates but that it was just sand and dust that had very slight concentration of gold dust mixed in. All you would need is a front end loader and a few dozen dump trucks.

There’s a higher concentration of gold in an old flip phone.

I am tempted to purchase one of the best and most widely used broadcasting mics. Art used this one for most of his career and the quality of these units remain intact through the years. I guess it will just be a sort of studio ornament as it is not meant for musical purposes but rather the human speaking voice. I can walk around the house all day saying things Art use to say.

The one thing that mic has going against it is the weird artifact thing on the pop filter screen when a digital camera is on it.

That does not detour me in the slightest as there are ways to work around such a tiny obstacle. And at least I put an Art Bell spin on it.

Here it is again being used by Jay Thomas on Sirius. (pre death of course)  ;D  Notice the non existing pop screen.

No guitar talk. Just race relations and social engineering and such. White guilt and Art's 33rd degree mason status and women who's second toe is so much longer than the others that it hangs over the front of the sandal. Ed Dames new book, The Slaughtered Anus. You'll have a cooking segment. The intro will be a take on The Chase but with a full hard rock setup that features the sound of humping bed springs, a woman moaning in the throws of ecstasy - I'll provide that sound 8) - all in time with the beat.

Ramona was definitely the wizard behind the curtain in many ways. It was really the Art and Ramona Bell show. She found and booked the guests. She was always there listening to the show. I'm sure they discussed things during breaks and she was there for him after every show. Ramona was his muse and inspiration. The light was gone out of his voice after her passing.

Absofuckinglutely.

Being asthmatic, Art must have had to limit his smoking around Ramona.

I speculate that he hit the cancer sticks hard in the post Ramona/pre-Asia time.

Plus, once PremSuck took over, Art was probably not as well prepared because the guests were booked without his consult. The stress might have had an effect.

Change in compression tools, mixing boards, microphone power supplies, etc. might have had an impact.

yeah the smoking would have had something to do with it, but my best guess is the overall stress of 2005. Sucked a certain amount of life outta the guy. Compression ETC? Perhaps, but that would be minimal and would not change his actual speaking patterns and vocal timber.

She was also responsible for quite a of the bumper tunes as well. What you refer to as the light being gone from his voice, I call the loss of the Hiiigh Desert Zip out of his voice.  Same thing.

Mischievous ghosts are boring and predictable. All they do is turn lights off and on, knock over a lamp and stand behind you in the mirror. Goofy shit like that. Some of those G2G calls are packed with tales of loser spirits and deadbeats.

..Ass-Souls.

My home's "visitor" was very predictable until I directly, out loud, addressed it.

This area I live has had numerous reports of paranormal issues and a few violent and suspicious deaths.

You had enough one day and did the "Oh for fuck sakes, you're so boring and uninteresting" "Piss off, get the fuck out" ETC.  Sometimes it takes more than once, but it really does work if you genuinely mean it. Humiliate the little bitch, send it packin'

A Human Waste Of Time, with KSM.

Enough of that rubbish.  ::)
Anybody care to speculate on the change in Art's voice from 04 to 06? The stress of Ramonas passing brought on premature aging?  There is quite the difference and it's not because he's broadcasting from the Filipins in 06.

Different set up. Probably different mic with different levels. There’s also the technical aspect of it being broadcast over  2006 3rd world technology  communication lines.

Actually, this ghost woke me up like an alarm clock... I finally said... "...if you can turn on a light, you can bring* me money." (*Bring, make or give me - I said it just after waking up, don't remember exact word)

That was the last event I am aware of.

I am tempted to purchase one of the best and most widely used broadcasting mics. Art used this one for most of his career and the quality of these units remain intact through the years. I guess it will just be a sort of studio ornament as it is not meant for musical purposes but rather the human speaking voice. I can walk around the house all day saying things Art use to say.

Yeah the Shure has jumped ahead. Rogan uses them, so does Carola and tons of other podcasts and indie news shows but I like the EV for its classic look and outstanding performance. Both around the 500 mark I think.

I could just use my Shure KSM32 or KSM44. Or one of many Audio Technica mics. Or one of the AKG's or RODE's. Those Rode mics are hefty. I like that. Like a fat Aussie gal that you sing into or use as an overhead drum mic.  This is gettin' weird.

I wish I remembered all the numbers.

In the mid-to-late 90s, I had:
Rode IIs
AT 4050S
C1000S
Crown PZM
Radio Shack PZM
EV 757 (hyper-cardioid dynamic
EV457 stage mics, also used in scratch vocals isolation)
Radio Shack (SM58 rejects)
Yes, I did not own any 57s, nor any Shure-branded mics. The Radio Shack 58s were for live because of theft risk.

I always had even numbers of mics 2-4-8...

If I was tracking for others, I'd borrow Shures if they were going to do additional tracks at a real studio so that they'd get consistency.

For digital recording, dynamic mics, I liked 1990s EV and  AudioTechnica condenser mics.

Shit I forgot my AKG drum mics.  C5000???

I was doing a remote 8-track for a bunch of weekend warriors.  The drummer (a commercial airlines pilot) starts criticizing the drum mics because the sounded bad for his voice.  I said, something like "Do you want me to use your mics? You're paying me, you're the boss" (definitely paraphrased).

When the singer came to mix with me, he was pissed the drums sounded like shit. I offered for an additional cost to trigger drum samples. Cha-fucking-ching. I had to sync to time code, manually edit.  Nearly doubled my price.

Asshole.

Somewhere in Time 5/28/1996. 26 years ago. Still better than anything on the radio since Rush died.

How depressing. The enthusiasm and just plain great radio that is all but dead  The big excitement that night was a nighttime reentry of the space shuttle.

Someone also heard Ramona guest hosting (presumption) a radio show.

When I go back to bachelor living, I think streaming old AB will be the thing in my house... Day and night.

Get a black one, they look better...

PS The over-the-top (like pictured) has a subtle bass roll-off while keeping a nice and crisp articulation. On the occasion I needed intimate, whisper-in-your-ear vocals I'd do the same with the C1000S.

I miss being able to play with my gear and recording other artists.  Now, it's kind of like a blind man owning artwork. After my tinnitus, I could still pull off a great recording and mix, but my acoustic traumas finished that.

At the risk of sounding a tad dark, I think Art picked the right year to call it quits on this whole life thing.

Was listening to the "what's happened to us" show from the mid 2000's today. What they thought was crazy only 15ish years ago is nothing compared to now. Can you imagine a caller claiming to be a time traveler from 2022 calling in to talk about the issues of today? Gender identity and pronouns, just to name one thing.  Art would have laughed his ass off in complete disbelief. Women with male parts. Heh heh..  Or gas prices? HA!  Please!  ::)

Mentioning to him something like leaving his legacy with some crazy-assed groupie would have probably gotten an incredulous response as well. Especially so because she didn't look Asian, rather looked like a horse.

I heard Dr. Evelyn Paglini's first call with Art on U7 early this morning.  1996?  It was recorded from a SiT but they cut off the last date recitation. She confirmed Ramona (RIP) did something right by sprinkling salt (to block/isolate/weaken) a haunted item or something of the sort.

If someone like her called sNoory, he would have rushed her off the phone because she would have been too real and challenging...

He'd immediately take line 3, Louise was waiting to tell us about how she rode Cassius Clay like a cowgirl and became pregnant with Muhammad Ali's space alien love child.

It is/was her first time as the featured guest. He found her as a caller on one of his "Witch Hunt" open lines shows. Pretty sure she was the last caller of the night. He did two of those shows so I am unsure which one it was.

Yes, she was the last caller. The call started off, I think she was on a cordless or cell phone. Either she called back or he called her on a special line and continued the call with a better sounding quality.

She actually said the traditional last caller "good night for the evening." He said she really knew her stuff and she affirmed it by saying "I am the real thing."

For some reason I forgot that she held a doctorate.

I am curious if they repeat the cycle of shows on U7. I'd like to hear her first call again.

Sometimes rather than look through my own files, I like to surprise myself and open the paranormal radio app on my phone and play one of the three 24/7 Art Bell streams. I wouldn't normally pick the Patrick Coombs interview (he cashed the junk mail check) but that's what was on the first stream I picked.

I had forgot how vicious the callers were once Art opened up the phones. One after the other in utter disgust as they applied all manner of unflattering labels on the guy. The stream eventually abruptly ended in the middle of a call and suddenly it was the 2004 prediction show. I hated the prediction shows.

I listened to a show from 12-21-2003 on U7 where Bell was talking about a "flying saucer" photo taken near Sedona, AZ.  It was on the ground and the photo was taken from the air by a pilot who flew tourists around the Grand Canyon.  He got a few faxes that offered possible explanations (including a grain storage bin) at the end of the first hour, but the rest of the show was spent talking to an expert on robotics. 

Does anyone remember this, and if so what, if any, conclusion was drawn as to what it was?  Anyone know where a copy of the photo might be?

Thanks.

I believe that was a one time appearance. Pretty sure this is because Art did not like all the conspiratorial topics that Jim covered in his books - mainly globalism ETC. And then 911 happened and we all know how Marrs felt about that. I think Art was a lot more selective on his guests than he claimed.

And then 911 happened and we all know how Marrs felt about that. I think Art was a lot more selective on his guests than he claimed.

Left hook/ I never could stand listening when Dannion Brinkley was on. Dannion on? Radio off! And he sounded very..  affected. ::)
sNoory took over about the time Marrs started appearing. NO COINCIDENCES!

And he, Marrs is fucking shameless as he constantly peppers in the name of whatever book he's hocking throughout the interview. Art may have disliked that as well. He says as much about guests and their books in The Art Of Talk which apparently I am reading for the seventh time since 06. I do not realize that I'm reading it yet again, however it is currently on my nightstand and bookmarked to page 152.  :P

Not the same. Dames, like MEL and Whitley were very good for business. Dames was well rounded in that his field of expertise ::) covered many aspects whereas someone like Jim Marrs was a broken record on a loop and was not much of a draw. In short - he wasn't full of enough shit to earn his keep.

Been enjoying classics every morning now in the place of live local radio for morning coffee. 97, 98, 99, and 2000 are definitely the pinnacle years. What a run. Some would argue that 1996 needs to be in there too but that would be incorrect. 96 was really good, but not great like those years already listed.

I submit to you that 1996 was.. foreplay.  And then.. we were penetrated.  Too much?

I thought I had heard every Art Bell show that has been streamed on either Somewhere In Time or tunein at one time or another. Late last night they played an interview from February 21, 2002 with Eric Burdon. I don’t remember that one at all. Lots of discussions about Jimi Hendrix. I drifted in and out but the callers I heard seemed to be above average. I’d say one of Art’s better interviews.

Because of his love for music, I think most of Art's interviews with musicians and artists in general were really enjoyable. Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson come to mind. George Carlin - a musician in his own way, perhaps.

I heard that one live while at work.  I can recall that Eric was living at Joshua Tree, California and he was pushing a book that he had written in which he claimed to have inside information on the death of Jimi Hendrix.  Art tried his best to get more info on it but Eric wouldn't budge.  Sorry, you've got to buy the book.

Art Bell VAULT sounds like it would be the motherload! So it's just the same old shit they've been rerunning for years?

Fortunately, I have more AB than they apparently do. WAY MORE! Over 1800 - about 80 less than Art did in his entire C2C tenure. Where are those 80??

Heard another show I had never heard before. A whack-a-doodle woman from Texas named Cynthia Turnage. Turns out she is an author of 4 books that should make one or more of @Camazotz Automat reading lists.

She has authored four books for Timeless Voyager Press including, The Holy Bible Is An Extraterrestrial Transmission, War In Heaven, ET’s Are On The Moon And Mars, and Sexual Encounters With Extraterrestrials. She has been featured on “STRANGE UNIVERSE (television), ART BELL (syndicated radio), and AFTER DARK (magazine).

About the Author
C. L. Turnage is a free lance writer / speaker with an extensive background in History and Ancient Languages. She has studied over 300 translations of Ancient Mesopotamian and Vedic Scriptures, Hebrew and Greek Scriptures, Egyptian Writings, and extra-biblical books such as “Enoch the Prophet”. She is a member of the Ancient Astronaut Society and MUFON. With over 150 radio and television appearances world-wide to her credit, Turnage has been published in numerous magazines, newspapers, and periodicals.


She was very bubbly and very upbeat. I got a kick out of one of her comments at the end of the show.  “I’ve been talking for hours about how God is an extraterrestrial and all the callers want to argue about is whether or not there are clouds on the moon.”

She’s as nutty as Hoagland but much easier to listen to and she’s not afraid to say she’s not a physicist. Took me awhile to find her books because they are listed as C. L. Turnage.

I'm down for The Holy Bible Is An Extraterrestrial Transmission.  I wonder if she limits herself to the current Bible as we know it, or also included some of the other texts that didn't make the cut, like the Book of Enoch.

https://hendersoncountytexasnow.com/obituary-cynthia-turnage/



Correct state, age seems about right if you look at her in the 1997 video. The deceased Turnage would have been 40-41 in 1997, the Turnage in the video could easily be 40ish.

According to the obit, the dead gal was a public school teacher, a Baptist (probably Southern Baptist) and a lesbian. If a school system and Baptist church in East Texas can accept she was a lesbian, writing the odd book about aliens probably wouldn't put them off.  I think there's a good chance it's her.

The woman that spoke with Art said she was 40. And was married to a guy.

She might not have been a lesbian when she died. That might have been clumsy wording where it says her son John and wife Emily. Emily might be John’s wife.

I just looked it up, she was on C2C with Bell a few weeks before her 42nd birthday, assuming the DoB in the obit is correct. She could have fudged a year.  You are likely correct about the wording, Emily was almost certainly her son's wife.  That would also account for her telling Bell she was married (to a guy), a fact I overlooked as her late husband is mentioned  in the obit as having preceded her in death. My apologies to Ms Turnage and her family/friends.

So would a Baptist church, or even a public school system, in rural Texas accept a teacher who wrote books claiming the Bible was an extraterrestrial transmission? The church probably only if she "renounced her past work," the school only if she didn't advertise her affiliation to them. Considering no bio I could find mentioned her day job or even her degree(s), and she wrote using her initials vice given first/middle name, I think the author and the woman in the obit are one and the same.

Disease might have something to do with it...???

"Cindi L. Turnage" might be a hit???

Might I add that the C2C website guest search feature is made by morons.

One other piece of the puzzle was the deceased taught school in Malakoff, TX.  One of the sites I found affiliated with C. L. Turnage's former MUFON position gave a postal mailing address for her of Dawson, TX. The two towns look to be about 30 miles apart on TX31.

Here is an alternative theory for C. L. Turnage.

Cynthia Lou Flippen was born 3 Oct 1957 in Lamar, Texas to Ralph Flippen and Marjorie Dewberry.
Cynthia was married to Goodarz Alipour 1974-1978, James Turnage 1984-1997, Norman Wootan 1997-2007, Joel Hamill 2010-2011 and may now be living in Arlington, Texas with current spouse Robert Scott Adolph.

Who was the lady writing for Star Trek? D.L. Fontaine?  I don't remember if she chose to use her initials or if Gene Roddenberry told her to use the initials to hide her gender in the Sci-Fi community. I don't remember the name, Fontaine seemed right.

That was D. C. Fontana who initially was Roddenberrys secretary then  started rewrites of star trek scripts.
Her first name was Dorothy.

Age looks right, middle initial is right, and Arlington is a D/FW suburb (where I once lived) so that seems reasonable.  Assuming the dates of her marriages are correct, however, she would have been Mrs.Wootan in 1998 when Bell interviewed her on C2C.  I suppose she could have kept her previous married name for professional purposes since she'd written her books under the Turnage name. If so, Mr Wootan must have been a very understanding, easy going individual....at least until 2007.

Yeah, I think you nailed it.  I found her on a database that shows her having once lived in Dawson, TX, as stated on the old MUFON affiliated site I found yesterday.  I'm not going to post a link here since it gives her current address and phone numbers.  It would seem she's lived an interesting life.

Well done.

Art had a dog for what I am assuming was not a long time. He speaks of her (the dog) during the Ed dames - Kill Shot & Discontinuity show. 1998-ish. Maybe 97.
Art invited listeners to go to the website to see a photo of his new dog and tell him what breed she was. I am assuming they did not have the dog for very long as you never heard about her after that week.
I wonder what happened! ? The dog went after a cat or two and Art put her down himself or perhaps took her in to a vet and had her put to sleep. Or, took her to a shelter to hopefully be adopted? Who knows, but it's really weird hearing him talk about his dog. Just doesn't sound right.

Well that's the thing, isn't it. He Liked, cats. When talking about his "dog" she did not seem to have a name. Most he said was that she was "friendly" and "sort of ugly, but cute at the same time" "wrinkly face" was also peppered in there. But no name! He loved to talk about the genesis of how all his furry felines got their names and what have you, not to mention the entire story of how these cats entered his and Ramona's lives.

He also mentioned he would kill someone if he ever saw someone abusing a dog or animal. For all of his many faults abusing animals didn’t seem like it. Seemingly he was better with animals than people. Also, when he adopted a cat from the local shelter, he saw the state of the shelters condition and wrote them a check. He then went on air and raised money for them.  He did that for multiple shows, I remember it There is one show in the archive where he mentions it.  I believe he said the shelter even made renovations or built a new cat shelter with the money.

IIRC, testing my memory, it was about Ghost. Ghost had all sorts of severe injuries when Art found him under the cuckshack HQ. Ghost had to be euthanized. The wing was named after Ghost who spurred on the fundraising spontaneously at first.

Alot of that sounds very familiar. I think you're both correct. I also believe that I've lost a few Art Bell Nerd points. I should've remembered that stuff. In my defense, I hadn't listened to the previously aforementioned show for many years.

Since I saw what I saw in from my hotel balcony in Everett two weekends in a row I've been Art Belling on a daily basis. I managed to snap a few pictures from the second weekend. Those can be seen on my Instagram page. But the first sighting on the weekend earlier was absolutely mind blowing. @Rikki Gins saw the pictures that I did manage to get from the second weekend.

I'm listening to U7 radio. The guy who did the area 51 song called. He said "Happy 4th of July" so got a little bit of a date... Art asked for it in WAV or MP3. He also referred to the 2nd amendment being changed before the coming election "for security." 1996? 2000? He was giving new telephone numbers "on the weekend..." One of the news articles referenced was an Iranian woman claiming to have given birth to a frog...

2004... Heard later in the show.

To join a previous poster, thanks for the links.

Was listening to a show from May 1999 (I believe) where Whitley Strieber was guest hosting.  The first call he took was from "Bill".  Don't recall the location given, but it was none other than AAA Bill.  It was rather humorous hearing him chastise Whitley for being too long winded with the guest.  The chief takeaway was the fact he didn't advertise his AAA status.  I wonder when that schtick became his go to.

Agreed. Ghostwolf was a mumbler. A full of shit mumbler. I always hated the natives coming on talking about earth changes and shit like the white buffalo and what the elders said and so-on and so-on.

Hard Pass. Stick to bannock and rain dancing.

I don't want to hear a show focused on earth changes either, we get enough of that as it is.

Art of course would have fake Indians full of BS like Drunk Elk, but I think there were a few shows with actual Native American Elders coming on to talk about their ancient myths and oral traditions and the wisdom that had been handed down for generations.  I'd rather hear their honest traditions regarding the future than any of the charlatans Art loved so much.

I never heard any of the shows with real elders on, those shows seem rare, sometimes I'd check and I'd missed one from the night before and be annoyed.  If I ever went back to listen to old shows some of those would be near the top of the list.

Graham Hancock interviewing some of these people, if they were willing to talk, would be fantastic.  I think he may be onto something with his theory about an ancient civilization with a global reach and their religion that has been completely wiped out and lost, and maybe some of these indigenous peoples still have a smattering of knowledge about it somewhere in their myths and oral traditions.

You may be referring to the Hopi elders. They were on one time with a translator, was a long arduous task for Art but in the end it was certainly worth it. Although, they did cover some of the usual earth changes that of course.. have not come to fruition all these years after their dated timelines.

At least drunk elk was funny. Ghostwolf and Morningsky are the unlistenable culprits IMO.

The show I recently heard Art called Ghostwolf "Morningsky." It was funny and understandable... They are cut from the same cloth.  AB later brought up Morningsky and asked about him.

Made it through finally @KSM - ironic in that I gave up on the original Mel when first broadcast when he said that dead dog got back alive again after the corpse was deep sixed in the hole.

Guessing it was sold yet again. The folks who bought it from Keith, launched a show but it failed pretty quickly. There was also a legal battle. Not sure what became of that. Wait, that was midnight in the desert.


This group is claiming to be from Dark Matter on XM. Which strangely, Art didn’t seem to enjoy working with they are trying to brand new show on artbell.net

Claiming to have everyone but Keith on board. That would have to include producers Paul Bowman and Evan Winkofsky ?

I remember those early Art Bell days mid 1990s pre-internet and pre-webpage.
Art had a modem-based BBS where you could call in with your dial-in modem and make an account there.

I downloaded an image from his BBS back then of Max the crystal skull.
With the slow 2400baud speeds back then that took quite awhile to download even though today it would only take a second.
I eventually upgraded to a super fast 19.2K modem!
I still have that image file to this day!

During morning coffee this morning I had on a classic about reincarnation with guest, Walter Semkiw. After Art released his guest, he opened the lines for the remainder of the show.  For a few callers in a row Art had to remind them to "extinguish thy radio"  By about the fourth moronic caller he, Art, had had enough! Went on a pretty good 4-5 minute rant. Sort of refreshing.

Last night Iistened to an open lines show from 1997 where Bell kept harping on his website and the "world wide web"(not the "internet.")  It reminded me of why Phil Hendrie did the C2C/General Johnson Jameson parody where the general loses it.  It was also entertaining hearing callers ask questions about computers and the web.

Has the topic of "www" been brought up here? You know, saying "double-u double-u double-u" is actually triple the syllables of saying "world wide web."

As I recall, depending on the website's service provider, "www" wasn't even needed for most websites back then.

Yeah Art was always on the cutting edge of technology.
He had a show telling the problems he had upgrading to the new Windows 95!
He also experimented with an early webcam where you had to dial in to it with your modem one person at a time to look at him moving around during the live show for a few seconds. While you were the one active on his studio webcam you could also type direct text messages ro him

Last night I drag n' dropped the Art Bell MITD folder into the media player and the open lines -I'm losing my mind- show from 10/21/15 was the first to play.  Art was rather admittingly bitchy, and in an overall "bad mood" but would go on to say how TigerLily cheered him up with her explanation of Art's Tarts. I think that's the story.. @TigerLily do I have that right?

She called the show that night.  Good job TL. Not many were able to make him laugh, let alone cheer him up from a bad day.  Thought I would isolate and share it it.

Speaking of What If Art Was Still Around,  today I was wondering what Art would think about the "WOKE" society. Would he speak his mind like he did in the 90's or would he refrain from speaking on "sensitive social issues" like he did in the later years of his radio career.

You may remember back in 96, he pulled no punches on social issues and was willing to engage disagreeing callers. That wouldn't have happened on MITD.

Good question. I believe the 90’s Art, if present now, would still speak his mind. The later version, sadly, was seeming to lose his grip, so who knows what he would do. He was acting more like some kind of diva tease, while being distracted by some crazy poontang, as his health began to go down the tubes.

This morning one of the internet channels played a New Year's Eve prediction show that Bell hosted.  One particularly anguished caller tremblingly told Bell he was locked inside his basement bathroom. Stereotypical drama before the guy finally told us he had locked himself in for protection from the devastating earthquakes he was calling to predict. I never did hear the date of this show.

I bring this up only because the caller was almost certainly this guy.

I'll look for a way. In total 110 or more GB's.

I have that torrent you refer to from 2013. It's not too bad at all. Some repeats and incorrect dates but who cares when you consider the effort put out by WillyDee and others who were responsible for it. I also have a separate or "Main" library that has over 1000. Some are longer or fuller versions of shows that are in the torrent but there are several hundred (most) that are not in the torrent. I have everything backed up like my life depends on it. It's taken 22 years to amass this nerdy library.

The SIT site you brought to my attention is pretty good too. After an exhaustive search I found two that I did not have. Thanks for that. Did the 5 donation and it unlocks alot of content and playlists. You can also download directly from those lists as opposed to recording streams like I brought to your attention.

I'm babbling.

The more I listen to current C2C shows, the more I dislike the old school entertaining topics of Bigfoot and that stuff.

Art Bell had people on in a different era talking about this stuff. And, let's admit it, it was theater of the mind for the most part.

One thing I can say though, so many of those political people back in the 90s talking about what the Democrats wanted to do, where they were going to take the country, what the long plan was, those cats were way too right.

Another group of Art's guests who kind of got things right where the UFO folks. We have government video to confirm that.

I was listening to Art on my tablet while shaving a couple days ago.  It was open lines and wasn't dated but there were enough clues to figure out the month and year.  For one thing, Art talked about the Mars Pathfinder which was getting ready to land on the red planet.  NASA was worried about a major dust storm that was going on and they were wondering if they should change the landing spot.  (It landed on July 4, 1997.)  One guy asked Art about Mel's Hole and that he would like to get in contact with him.  Art went into a lengthy explanation as to why that wouldn't be possible, because he, (Art) had given Mel his solemn vow not to release his (Mel's) phone number, and that he would never go back on his word.  During a news break, it was announced that the Senate wanted to pass some type of health care bill and President Clinton promised that he would veto it if it came to his desk.

@sean92008 Do you mean George filling in for Art? That's 2002. Yeah. Pass. If not 02, what year are you referring to? I gotta know!

Speaking of Ghost to Ghost, SIT has 2005 up. Listened to it yesterday and it's a pretty good one. One caller that I can't stand is some obvious mexi-fry calls in and softly boasts about putting baby powder on the car bumper and parking on the haunted tracks of San Antonio where the school bus was hit with all the kids. Art seems to not like it.

No, it was Art saying that he was filling in for George. You could hear it in Art's voice, he didn't like saying that or he was just blue in mood. I didn't listen long enough to see if they might have done a Somewhere in Time date announcement. The quality of the audio was very good

Hmm. I'll find it later. Determined.  Art hosts 03 but is in a great mood and was not "filling in" so it's going to be 04 or later. BTW 03 is one of the best if I recall.

I did not listen long at all, I switched to the Ultimate Art Bell Channel. What I perceived in a few minutes I listened was that the people calling in were stupid. George sNoory listeners. 

I do not know what time during the show I started listening. Maybe it was a good beginning and the level of callers made him depressed. He did seem to be talking a little lower and softer for the time as well.

I'm pretty sure the show history will say if AB was there or was filling in. Heck, Maybe he was doing a regular show, but they wanted him to say "filling in" just like the new troup of weekenders do...

I may have been in the minority, but I enjoyed Ashcraft.  On a number of nights he was the highlight of MitD for me before he got the boot.  I don't remember the backstory of his departure, just one of too many Peyton Place dramas as Bell halfheartedly battled to remain relevant.

03 19 96: An open lines show that may be Charlie liberals first call? To the best of my recollection, he was not calling in 95. @Morgus may come in handy here..

In this particular show Art doesn't kno him as "Charlie, liberal in California" Just another caller and he wasn't calling about anything political. This is the show where Art explained how a kitten made itself at home under their doublewide. Art coaxed him out over a few days and then solicited names from the callers. Comet would be this cat and you would hear about him for years after afterwards.

Because I don't want to put any undue pressure on @KSM  in searching out the Art Bell archives to track down episodes, I would bring up more great stuff that I'm hearing, but I don't have a clue on most of the dates.

I've been hearing a lot of good shows lately, including some Ed Dames stuff that must have sounded incredible back in the day. Somebody recorded them at very high quality and they weren't part of the Somewhere in Time series.

The amazing thing about the show was that he had so many people on talking about societal, political, ecological and financial changes that were dead on correct. Although Art was definitely a global warming cuck, he had people on talking about the real science. Recently, I even heard where somebody made reference to electric cars being difficult to implement because of the rare earth minerals that have to be strip-mined. I think his point of view was that we would be doing the strip mining in America and that just wasn't going to fly. I'm pretty sure that was a show from the '90s because I'm pretty sure I heard CBC Network being mentioned.

I have two or three Dames shows that are not in the SIT files. They are not dated unfortunately as back when I first started collecting in the early 2000's I simply gave the shows titles that would be my surmise on what the show covered. I could kick myself for that. At least 800 that have titles and not dates.  Alas..

Yes thats a great archive of some of the Art Bell Sunday night show Area 2000 from 1993-1994 - the predecessor to his Dreamland show.
Has both George Knapp and Linda Howe in the first half hour of each show giving their reports.
From the recordings, Art broadcast the show live Sundays from 8-10pm PT from the KDWN Las Vegas radio station.
I remember in the mid 1990s Art would broadcast his Dreamland show on Sundays from 7-10pm so he added an extra hour for that.

Interestingly on the first (earliest) Area 2000 show in that list, Art told about his first UFO sighting that happened 2 weeks before that show in Sep 1993 - he told about the giant silent triangle craft. He said he was 48 at that time and never had seen a UFO before that.

I'm listening to tonight's SIT from 1996 and there was a first time listener/caller that complained to Art that he sounded rude to all the callers.
Art also corrected a caller who called Richard Hoagland, "Dr" Hoagland - Art informed him he is not a medical doctor or a pHD!

A caller also was worried about white supremests and Art told him not to worry they are a small group and will not take over - interesting considering today's political environment.

He did compare himself with Billy Meier. For the most part, he was complete waste of time.

Fortunately, I noticed for the first time during that episode that TuneIn radio has started to interrupt programming with commercials. The commercials are much louder than the rest of the program and I went to SiTarchives. By the way, the commercials were political which is even a bigger mistake by TuneIn.

The one of the last callers on the Jim Bohannon show before he retired said something about losing the source of his information. Bohannon immediately said "...my replacement Rich Valdes will handle it capably" or something like that. My first thought George sNoory being propped up by Art Bell.

Listening to U7...

1997 (3/5?) show. Nuclear power plant security, open lines and the next night the missing Iron Butterfly bassist's sister was going to appear...

TuneIn is running long loops of commercials. Maybe it's time to find an alternative.

I have something on my laptop, I think it's 1.2 gig, not absolutely sure. This is the same laptop I'm trying to migrate all sorts of cracked music VSTs from...

Thing is, it's more convenient to stream something. Otherwise I've got to power up something and put it on a memory card, make a choice of what I want to listen to and stuff. I have thought about getting an internet radio that might have a memory card input and I do have a couple of Bluetooth speakers with card inputs, thing is TuneIn Radio used to have the perfect combination of just playing streams and a sleep timer. The U7 radio app does not have a sleep timer on it and I don't have one that's native to my Android operating system.

My guess is that I stopped listening to U7 after about the fourth minute of advertisements. Really stupid.

March 10, 1996 Dreamland...

U7's copy has horrible sound quality (music bleeding through).

It appears the guest lives at the same home on Miller Lane in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania as he did 26 years ago.

PS, I found an Android app that shuts off media playback on a timer... Simply called "Sleep Timer." I now use the U7 app and it includes the show information on a crawl across the screen.

An April 3, 1996 SiT replay file had a Lear Capital commercial. Good reviews.  Humm.

I did end up going to TuneIn's website. While it played a couple of minutes of ads at the beginning, at least I didn't get woken up with a very loud set of ads in the middle of things. Maybe I went to sleep before they started or something. I did delete the TuneIn app because it had gotten to the point where it was random like 20 minutes between ads then 30 minutes then 10. It started during election time and all the ads were leftist causes anyway. Considering California is letting sex predators out under a year's time, those leftist California ads are quite upsetting.

The app also had a level control issue between the program and the ad volume.

Got to love the open lines shows from 95-96. So much to talk about politically with Clinton and Dole, it's pretty funny to hear what everybody was bitching about back then. Hehe  if they only knew what was coming just 25 years later..  If only a real time traveler from 2022 would have called in to talk about all the gender confused and all the wokeness, those fuckers back then could not have believed it.

It's easy to speculate, unmonitored social media, an automatic playback ends, either the guy is finally getting laid or he died.

If he received a cease and desist, I would think he would have rallied the troops.

I don't think he pulled an MV; drama queens usually want attention about the drama.

Maybe he was away for the holidays. I tried the pop out player last night and it was DOA (grayed out). It's got to be something like that. The stream problems have been going on for a while now.

I can binge Star Trek DS9, commercial free. What do I do? Pluto More Star Trek Channel.

I prefer the structure of somebody else's clock. Also I like the surprise of it. Like, today's U7 was Christmas Eve 1997 where Ramona took over the show. It was great to hear and sad as well. She read an Art Bell version of twas the night before Christmas and then took calls. I would have never searched out that show or picked it from a playlist. The randomness of having it played back in order is how I expand my pallette. The black lady complaining about Art was funny. She went on about Black History month.

Same goes for my old Pandora account. I would find regional indie recordings of great music that I would have never heard otherwise. That's why, when Pandora goes through a big licensing purge and they drop artists while removing them from my favorites list as well, I get horribly frustrated. Now I can't find that mulatto lady that growls out how desirable she is. I'll never know where to hear her record again. I don't remember enough of it from 2010 other than how much I loved that record. I was glad to hear it for the dozen times I did.

I now have pluto on my TV's and saw the Star Trek channel. I DO think it should just be the original series though, rather than mucking it all together like they do.

They have a Star Trek channel that features the original series and next generation episodes. I believe in blocks of 6 or 12 hours. Then there is the More Star Trek Channel which seems to be exclusively DS9. Look for Channel 271.

@ItsOver I AM still doing that. H&I is a great channel. I've gotten really nerdy about the whole cord cutting TV thing. Between OTA and streaming smart TV platforms there are simply waaay too many choices. I've found myself dumping a few of the streamers. There are like eight of them. I'm now just with OTA (50ish channels in Denver) Pluto, Tubi, PLEX and Roku. Fuck - that still sounds like a lot even after trimming half the free fat.  One really common show that seems to be on every service is Unsolved Mysteries.  Thankfully H&I and several other channels as well as CBS, NBC, ABC and FOX are OTA should I ever want to just go the antenna way.

Yep. I’m pretty much “OTA all the way.” You can’t beat the cost and I’ll take pretty much anything from the Golden Age of TV vs. the social engineering crap of today. When I flip to some place like ABC for sports, like the 30 minutes of MNF last night, I’m always amazed at the ads for the crap TV shows of today. Bad acting, bad writing, a pile of PC garbage and you can tell just by watching the ads. Freaking pitiful.

I had a powered RCA antenna that used to pick up 50 channels of high-definition broadcast from Los Angeles, the inland empire which is east of LA and the San Diego area. It was glorious! Watching Craig Ferguson in high def over the air is 20 times better than watching it streamed on YouTube.

Suddenly, my reception started to fail. Channels and groups of channels would fall off. Presumption is that they were lowering the power on the transmitter or switching transmitters. Then, I went from a Sharp Aquos from something like 2008 to a TCL from what seems like 4 years ago. No over the air at all. Even with double amplification, nothing worked with the TCL. I don't think they're made to really receive over the air, if you ask me.

Now, for the real reason I'm here...

Although I'm sure bandwidth gets limited at some sort of a point, home internet using 4G and 5G might be an option for you. They're being pitched in Southern California for $50 a month. T-Mobile and AT&T or maybe it's Verizon.

Pluto hired Drew Barrymore to do a series of commercials about how they never charge ("stream now, pay never") Sometimes, it sucks. The Helen Hunt (is that the lady from the Mad About You TV show?) movie festival was kind of a waste although she was wearing a leotard top at one point while I was flipping through channels.

Art had a weird relationship with both his sisters. When listening to him talk about them, one gets the impression that he kept them at arm's length, so to speak. He speaks briefly, casually, but not affectionately about them in the Art Of Talk.

Yeah, I know, I have the show but that is the nicest thing he would say about her or the other on the air. I'm not saying that he disliked them, but rather he seemed to be somewhat indifferent. One of them is in to channeling and all that crap and Art definitely thought her loopy for it.  I'm sure they all talked over the phone at Christmases and birthdays.  You know, from a distance.

Any and all Art Bell is just a painful reminder that George Noory sucks.

Ed Dames proved wrong again. Listening to an episode from 1997 where Dames was asked to remote view the missing Iron Butterfly musician Taylor Kramer. He vanished after making some bizarre phone calls.

Dames provided few “facts” but did say he was dead, had been shot by someone and his body was in Montana.

Taylor Kramer’s body was found in his van in 1999 at the bottom of Decker Canyon near Malibu.

Said it before and I'll say it again. 1996 was the best year for open lines when it came to politics. Art feeding the tigers as he would share his opinions ETC after a debate. Most involved Dole, Buchanan, Clinton of course but on this night 02/15/96 Alan Keys. This show ends up in heated political discussions, and even Art get's into a few of them. First hour features Ray Crowe (Bigfoot guy) but then the fun begins. And yes, Charlie calls in. What ever happen to that guy.

I just listened to the one with Dr. Stephen Rourke (Steven?) about NASA Mooned America. This was after 05, Ramona had passed and he was in the apartment overseas. But this show was a humdinger. Weird hearing Art gasp at some of the things presented by the guest, who was presenting for someone else named Ralph Renae. I hate the moon landing shows but I feel compelled to listen to them.

If you get a chance, listen to the VoteScam (based on the book by James Collier) show. It's in the SIT files found on the interwebz. And then? Apply it to today. At times you'll hear an angry Art.

Starfire Tor.  I remember that name.  That night I was driving to a bar to see a local band and listened to the first part of it.  It was the last time I ever listened to Art Bell on Coast.  I listened to a few Dark Matter shows just because it was Art coming back, I don't think I even listened to a single one from Midnight in the Desert.

I just got tired of the New Agey shows and the consciousness shows, and that seemed to be all he did when he was on just once a week or once a month.

Ain't that the truth. After 06 I stopped listening to coast all together. Some of the Dark Matter and MITD shows are pretty good though. MITD had a flat earther debate that was flat out ridiculous, but quite funny. I would recommend it. OH.. Lily calls in to one of the open lines shows. Fittingly it was the "I'm losing my mind" show.

Last week I listened to an episode of Dreamland where Bell and LMH were discussing the incoming Hale-Bopp comet. LMH went on and on about how some world famous scientist had proof there was a ship trailing the comet, and that he would be soon be making a historic announcement to that effect. As if I didn't know, anyone know if anything came of that?

Also, what was supposed to have been the difference in concept between C2C and Dreamland?  Once a week, closer to prime time broadcast hours, no open lines.....but how (or was is?) supposed to differ from C2C?

Art started his separate Sunday night show in the early 1990s back when c2c was only on M-F nights and was mostly open lines with a lot of political topics including regular callers like Doc Democrat and Charlie Liberal.
The Sunday night show was the first of Art's shows to concentrate on paranormal topics unlike c2c at that time.
First it was called "Area 2000" and later changed the name to "Dreamland" and featured the first half hour or so with Linda Howe's live reports and had a guest interview only, no open lines. Around 1998 or so after Art's first retirement, he gave Dreamland to Whitley Streiber and Art only did c2c after that.

After several years, Art started to get tired of politics and began introducing some of the paranormal guests and topics to his c2c shows too but he still did a lot of open lines without a guest.

I heard a March 2000 show with Seth Shostak of SETI and he was having an enthusiastic show with Art. Seth gave his email address out and I dropped it a note while listening. The email address still works and he sent a reply. In my message to him, I did get a dig in on the current state of the show, he did not address my sNoory insult.
So many emails given out over the years on the show. Every time I hear one from the 90s I wonder if it's still functional.




Was listening to John Leer's 2nd 1994 appearance today and he just has this smugness in his voice that oozes out of the radio. Wasn't he asking for money from C2C fans a few years ago? One would think he would be financially set. Think he's dead now so money is no longer a problem.

Leer's begging wise to pay for his air conditioning system at his home. His home was for sale. It wasn't for an old man to stay cool in the Las Vegas Valley, it was to sell his house at a higher price. I don't know where I posted it, I might have done a screenshot or just a link to the Zillow listing.

It is, and has been my opinion for years that the few years before Ramona's passing were the best years when it comes to Art's overall sound. From audio filters to his delivery. And he sounded quite happy in general which of course manifests itself in every way. And again, that itself would speak to his delivery. The entire machine was well oiled and operating on all thrusters. By this time he would have been very wealthy and all there was to do was maintain a consistency.

We had an 'Indian Burial Ground' on the farm where I spent my childhood. 166 acres, and the little graveyard consisted of about 10 graves/bodies. It was located in a very remote part of the property. Sometimes I would go up there and hang around with them. Build forts, climb tree's, pretend I was a rogue soldier with my military canteen and belt. Oh, and my 22 for shooting squirrels. They didn't haunt or terrorize me like in the movies. Although I didn't build my fort neighborhood overtop their final resting places.  ;)   They can get a little testy with that sort of thing.   ;)

Interesting insight during his March 27th, 2001 show with a guy named Matthew Stein. He said that his mother was quite driven and always doing projects. She actually had the family build a concrete pool off of a creek. Now he said that the water was extremely cold, but she was a go-getter, a doer. George sNoory's mother was, in comparison, a fat ass lazy mother fucker and taught her son 'well."

Listening to a classic AB open lines show from late 99, think it was from December as Y2K was the main topic and callers were wishing Art a Merry Christmas. Anyways, I found myself audibly cussing out some of the Canadian callers. Actually the majority of them as they would say "up here in Canada" Everybody knows it's UP! All of them were saying it! Like they were reminding themselves of their geographical location or something. It was like every single worst Canadian caller got on that night. One of these fuckheads, when asked where he was calling from answered "Alberta, Canada" WE KNOW WHAT FUCKING COUNTRY ALBERTA IS IN! Even the stupidest American knows where Alberta is.. I think.. actually, probably not.

1. Depends where you are - South Dakota is "up there" to me.

2. Little brother syndrome, they do not have the confidence to say Edmonton, Alberta.
They do that a lot in Toronto. It's always "Toronto, Canada"

#2 There was a call from Burlington, but he had to tell Art how far he was from Toronto  ::) Two callers did say "Calgary, Alberta" The guy from Burlington was making donuts while talking to Art. Working in a bakery late at night. Art kept him on way too long. It was infuriating. All in all about 8-9 calls from north o' the border.

#3 Nobody has asked me anything about my origin. I swear, they all sound like me, or I them. In some conversations about how cold the CO wind is I have mentioned BC. They're always surprised. I give them a complimentary 'Eh' or "aboot",  we have a chuckle and get on with our day.

There have been various collections around the net over the years. Between 2010 and 2014 it was rather easy to amass a somewhat hefty collection - those were the fruitful years.  A few members of CoastGab (pre bellgab) had them up in 2011-2012 but they had to invite you and assign a password and username to you in order to access their stuff. And before that there was WinMX in the mid 2000's that had a few hundred individual shows from various uploaders.

I did not know that Art did that for U7..

Art's voice is probably listened to by thousands of people every day, still.

I listen to "Art Bell Tape Vaults" via the Apple Podcast app, easy access. Quality is very good. I can set up a podcast to follow the one currently on deck (sees me through the night until I fall asleep), and it holds my place even when I close the app.

At about 1 a.m. most nights, when Art's show aired on the East Coast, I line up my podcasts, and forget it's 2023. I'm truly "Somewhere in Time." The interviews with virus experts seem so current, other topics are timeless. I swear I almost called in the other night.... I prefer shows prior to 2006, before Ramona passed, when Art was the still the man we knew and loved....

I still shed tears for Art, get really down at times, remembering when he'd post fun comments to us on the Fantastic Forum, mention us when he signed off, and I treasure the handful of his email replies I have stored away.

Art, if you can hear me, some days the emptiness is as big as Mel's Hole. But we carry on.

Rich stuff.

Monetization in the modern age surely has driven all this great tech.  So advanced compared to when Elon Musk did his typo-marked Tesla email.

The use in dubbed motion pictures sounds really cool. To hear Tom Cruise's voice in perfect Chinese surely will be a popular box office move.  I'd like Lemmy's Keith Richards voice on my GPS!

An author can now translate their book into any language they want and have the audiobook generated in their own voice.
The only way to achieve that is to shut down the VOICE SQUATTING LISPERS.

If the Mel's hole thing was kept to the first two appearances (a Tuesday and Wednesday back in FEB 96) it would have been sooo much better and even more more believable in its own way.

It went way to far, and the amount of BS that piled up would have surely filled said imaginary hole. Art should have caught that and kept it mysterious with only a replays every few years. But no. They had to keep on going with new holes in Nevada and elsewhere.

Oh wow. That sucks. I liked him. He was on with Art a few times in earlier Coast days. One very memorable show was the Mars, God, And ET conference where he, Mike Heiser and RCH were Arts guests. It's a classic and Art gets quite animated at times. It took place after the aforementioned event/conference. I think it took place in 02-ish. I searched it but can't find the exact date.

Hi Juan, it does work for sure, they did have an older model that used Reciva as the interface to get the stations but the latest, called Mondo Elite uses Chrome so it's very much like streaming off your laptop, just easier with a remote and works great as a bedside "radio" . I have mine loaded up with 10 presets plus you have thousands of links you can access. Like I said earlier, the connection is via your WIFI, not a cell tower.
The Crane version is nice as well, they are pretty similar overall.

Art's Ouija Board Story

Art never spilled on C2C but a HAM operator I know told me he DID outline the tale there, on those frequencies. Way he tells it, Art had writing and reflection on his mind because he was deep into selling (on C2C, not HAM) his second printing of "The Art of Talk" and this set him into a garrulous mood. Might have been around Halloween, I'm embarrassed I don't have the exact date. Anyway, this operator I know is a literary/man of letters type and a bit obsessed by Hemingway and Richard Francis Burton (the Brit polyglot adventurer who translated the Arabian Nights). He got in Art's ear about the library of Alexandria and how a huge chunk of Hemingway's work is lost (a misplaced suitcase) and also Burton's (his wife cremated everything after he died). After months he finally convinced Art to put down the Ouija story as a first draft only, and to send it his way. What I got (later) is a transcript (but I've seen pics of the actual letter) and I think some of the redactions are NOT original to Art (were done later).

https://www.reddit.com/r/ArtBell/comments/tjd9l9/arts_ouija_board_story/

Did Art ever mention anything more on his Ouija Board story?

And how believable is the coffyrocket reddit thread? It is a good read.

The Ouija board story is something he would NEVER give up. Never did. Makes one (this one) wonder whether or not there really was any story at all.

I'll have to check that thread out, Bob.

There was an entertaining BG thread imagining that, but without search available it would be like diving into a swamp.
Huh. An Art Bell board game that would be a sort of Trivia game? @Smokin Hot Bob ? Cats as game pieces?  ;D  Back in earlier BG days (CoastGab) we were all AB nerds - or so it seemed.



@sean92008 I have the broadcast in question on right now (copy 2 - not out of Rochester) so we'll see. My guess is that there will be no alarm testing. Also, this copy is perfectly commercial edited. I may have been the guy who did the editing but cannot recall as I did a shit ton of that with a great many shows, and then put them back onto the net. Like throwing fish back.  :D

Yeah, those things tend to be local of course and the file I heard today was without interruption.
I'll give the other one a listen at MY convenience. if it is the same Rochester broadcast, it will be apparent rather early in the show.

Thanks for checking. Seriously.

While it wasn't the most enthralling show (Dan Aykroyd wasn't the most interesting one, it was his buddy), still, they interrupted a discussion with those tones.

Art did give his blessing to U7... Unless that was AIArt

Maybe AI-Audio, a la Peter Jackson's system, can finally fix all those ½ speed AM radio cassette recordings.  U7 dude said he level-balanced the recordings (eh, not all the shows), but a giant clean-up is due.

I do not recall how many times Art retired, or what the approximate dates were but I think he retired 3 times? First was in 2000 or shortly after?  Apparently he had a net of 10 Million at death, but back in the days of his first retirement he must have been worth 3 to 5 million around the turn of the century. In 1993 thing were just starting to go in the right direction, the C2C with Art Bell direction, but his bank account would have been nowhere near retirement levels according to The Art Of Talk. 95 thru 2001 must have been amazing for him as the affiliates and cash poured in. He and Ramona still had a mortgage on the Pahrump place in the early 90's..

I have no idea what the actual fuck I'm posting here but it is fairly accurate.  I'm making a ham tonight.

Sooo...  A lot to unpack here.

1) Are you antisemitic? Ham is an insult to all Jews everywhere!!! 🙄

2) Thinking of Art while making a ham is logical. Art probably did more for ham radio in the 90s than anyone else.

3) In the old country, I repeated the estimated net worth from the webosphere and Art himself denied that was the case. He made it sound like he was well under a million, if I recall correctly.  I guess checking the box office for that movie might help... Considering where he lived, if he didn't blow it on liquor and whores*, he probably was doing OK until Ramona died. I remember him recounting soon after her death that she had prepaid a bunch of bills and had a system of keeping the books clean.

To be honest, I would suspect that any possible egregious outflow would have been after Ramona. Young woman, from the third world, near the gambling capital of the world and family probably flying in at a high rate...

Would you like my glazed HAM call letters?

He was worth enough in 2000 and beyond to retire, but not in 1995. Everybody (Except Trump) with any real money almost always downplays their net worth. If he was to retire in, say.. 01 and his place was paid for, he could have lived a simple life on 750K or maybe even less back then. His house was completely solar powered by 98 so there's that little tidbit as well. His son was mentioning the the millions of dollars in an interview after Art's death and that he was not in the will, nor did he care. That was from the MV interview.
Annnd when he bought the Pahrump place it was nothing more than a doublewide in the sand on a 5 acre lot. All the additions would come in years to follow but not later than 2000. Those additions, buildings/his antennas ETC would not be cheap.

Art Bell's history is listed here:
https://www.thefamouspeople.com/profiles/art-bell-9903.php

His first quitening was in Oct 1998 which came out of the blue with no warning  - at the end of a show one night he ended it saying this is my last show. Fill in guest hosts were used like Hilly Rose for a few weeks until Art returned.

Art then planned his next retirement for 2000 and this time let listeners know months in advance.  So the network carefully prepared a permanent replacement host this time Mike Seagel who even visited Art's  place in Pahrump - I remember photos of that were at Art's website back then.

 But Siegel was terrible and so after a year the network begged Art to return again and he did in early 2001 with conditions like reducing the amount of ads per hour which had doubled while Art was gone. They agreed.

Art hosted again for a couple years but his back kept giving him increasingly worse pain (or so he claimed) and was having to miss lots of nights so guest hosts were common. They were effectively auditioning for replacement host and Noory was one of those. So he was picked by the network in early 2003 when Art retired again. Interestingly as soon as Noory took over for Art permanently the ads per hour doubled - showing Noory was just another network stooge. Noory has continued to increase the ads over the past 20 years too - adding his own as well for his side hussels including personal events and dating services and expensive so called health supplements.

Art did host again for a time on weekends only after this on and off for a few years during which his wife Ramona died and he moved to the Philippines to marry a young woman there. Art even got the network to buy him lots of expensive equipment to broadcast from a Manila condo on weekends.  He did so for a few months until he moved back to Pahrump.  But soon after the network did something he didn't like so he quit c2c for the last time.

A year or so after he did the Sirius radio deal but that only lasted a few weeks unti he quit it too. Then a couple years after that he tried his own streaming radio show Midnight the Desert for awhile but he quit that soon as well after claiming someone tried to shoot at him so he turned it over to his producer assistant Heather Wade and that was his final quittening until his death.

Another thing I remember was when Art Bell came back sometime after his 2003 retirement to host c2c weekends only only to quit again after awhile.
The network after that gave the weekend hosting to Ian Punnett.
When Art a year or two later wanted to return to weekend hosting after the death of Ramona, the network agreed and poor Ian was reduced to hosting his own early saturday night show (3 hours before c2c) instead.  Thats when Ian had guests like the guy who thought he was a reincarnated horse, etc.
Later when Ian himself had to leave due to worsening tinnitus, that time slot switched to the current Art Bell - Somewhere in Time reruns!

Good stuff @Morgus

Yes, I thought that there may have been a late 90's quitting but really wasn't sure. I'm pretty sure that his guests that 98 night were George Lutz of (Amityville) in the first half, and then RCH for the remainder until they said their goodbyes. Tells me that he must have amassed enough to retire even by 98. That's some serious cash flow between 94/95 - 98.

Listening to the "All JC Appearances" file on U7... Art Dubbed him "JC" on one call.

He slipped out of his voice a few times during the initial half-hour segment that carried over past the break. The calls from the woman from San Diego and the guy from Medford both brought out tinges of a younger, unaccented voice.

If C2C was smart, they'd do a hi-fi greatest calls file for sale on iTunes and elsewhere.

We have had a miscommunication. When you said 'all the whacky calls' I thought you meant ALL the whacky calls that have came in over the years since 93-ish. Not just JC.
There are as many as 3 JC compilations out there. I have 2 of them, but all 3 are just variations of the same collection. Stop gaslighting me with your Macho Art Bell Head Games!

Stupid guest on tonight's SiT. Larry Wilson? Not Larry D. Wilson or Larry K. Wilson?

Doomed for failure, his predictions of the end of the world kinda missed.

Strangely, airing on 9/16/2023, the show was from 9/20/1995. Why the discrepancy? They had been doing so well doing that date thing.

Maybe it's this guy.

Was on Spotify free version last night and suddenly, without warning, as if lightning struck, like it was meant to be.. I entered 'Art Bell' in the search. Not sure why I was surprised, but I was when I found a hefty result. Began scrolling down as I recognized show after show, but then, suddenly, as if lightning struck, like it was meant to be, I found a full show from 97 that I do not have. An RCH entitled Solar Cycles. This show is listed in the 2013 torrent but it is only a 38 minute segment. My other libraries did not have this show either.
I'll stream and record it tonight with Audacity.

There really isn't anything out of the ordinary found on YT and the other usual places people look. There used to be a few little darkened corners on the net back between 99 and 2005 that are no longer in existence. WinMX in its original incarnation which sprung up in place of Napster was a gold mine back then. That's where I found several hundred from other users who were cool about opening up their files to you if you managed to gain some sort of rapport with them. There was this lady in NYC who had 110 gigs, and a paramedic stationed in the Alberta oil fields who had a motherload at the time that were my main sources.

I just did a search for Art Bell on spotify and it found a list called "The Art Bell Archive"
In that list I found some very early shows from 1993 and even one from Dec 1992 with John Lear & Bob Lazar - possibly their first appearance with Art.

I also found a full 2.5hr show from May 15,1997 with Richard Hoagland that I didn't ever find before anywhere else.
In this show, Hoagie for the first time reveals what the "C" for his middle intial stands for, in response to a caller question about that. He revealed it stands for Charles and Art commented he will remember that.  The caller also asked what is Hoagie's birthday and he said it was April 25th.

The 92 show is in the 2013 torrent, in fact it's the first one in the list. It is hard to listen to in places as it seems like the tape slows down for various lengths of time. You can tell that someone somewhere was recording it live as the radio reception was a little rough. All in all it's a cool thing. I wonder who recorded it in the first place..

The may 15, 97 show is also in the torrent, but still if one does not have the torrent file, Spotify seems to be the only other place to find it. What a mess of shows and batches of shows scattered around the net over the years. Mind boggling that one guy broadcasting from a spare room in a double-wide out in the hiiigh desert could be the lightning in a bottle that was that show.

Can't say that I blame him, the guest has an unusual way of laying it out using the Schrödinger's cat hypothesis. Over all it's a classic from 03.

First off, I can listen to almost anything. There are some exceptions, I usually don't like Ghost to Ghost episodes and EVP is tough to play when I'm going to sleep because of the massive volume differences. Truth or trash has to be when I'm working on stuff, not when I'm trying to relax. I do enjoy some of the political commentary along with social medicine. My favorite example of that is Bob Guccione and his wife talking about FDA trials on cancer drugs. I still feel bad thinking of her situation. Art remains pertinent to today's times. Maybe because many of the problems are being caused by the same people. 😁

Pirate Bay is still a thing I still see a lot of automotive software up there. There were a few other sites, I don't remember their names now. After the Beatles get back thing on disney, I got a warning letter that I was visiting torrent sites. No doubt Disney didn't want me downloading the stuff.

I like the Truth Or Trash shows alot. I wish he would have done more of them because there are and were enough stories true/trash to go around. I should start an open lines podcast that strictly relies on the Truth Or Trash idea. I usually skip the GIS shows anytime of day. When I hit play on random I usually have to hit the next button several times to randomly jump to a show I want to have on. I have a real problem with guests from England. It's the accent. Doesn't matter the topic, I just can't listen to them, but one exception would be Marcus Allen (OMNI Magazine) He is the only guest that has ever caused Art (or me for that matter) to doubt the moon landing and it's odd to hear that with Art.

Maybe I'll upload the 2013 thing.

Pirate bay is still active but another big torrent site RARBG shut itself down a few months ago and posted this final message:

"Hello guys, We would like to inform you that we have decided to shut down our site.
The past 2 years have been very difficult for us - some of the people in our team died due to covid complications, others still suffer the side effects of it - not being able to work at all.
Some are also fighting the war in Europe - ON BOTH SIDES.
Also, the power price increase in data centers in Europe hit us pretty hard.
Inflation makes our daily expenses impossible to bare. Therefore we can no longer run this site without massive expenses that we can no longer cover out of pocket. After an unanimous vote we've decided that we can no longer do it. 
We are sorry :(“

That is one of my favorite shows. The first hour with Bobert on his experience. I made a Bob Lazar Saga out of the main three shows he did with Art. Editing and narrowing it down to the meat of each show and including one of the open lines segments.

Hoagie was in fine form as they discussed too as they discussed the Arecibo response and were later joined by (name escapes me) to discuss crop circles in general. The last half of the show was about Pirate Radio.

As Art closed the show, you cannot help but get a weird feeling knowing what happens just hours later as the whole world changes forever.

Why was Art's delivery on Dreamland different than on Coast? You can clearly hear that he's speaking slightly off his normal patterns of C2C. I annoys me to the point where a if a Dreamland show comes on in shuffle I head over and click the next button. I should probably organize the Dreamlands into their own folder rather than all content together.

Oddly the c2cam website has this listed for tonight's Art Bell Somewhere in Time broadcast:
From 6-10pm PT, Art Bell: Somewhere in Time returns to 10/16/22 when Dr. Paul Mayewski discussed extreme climate changes.

An Art Bell show from a year ago? Did he somehow broadcast a show from the great beyond or via one of his time traveler callers?  :o

Doing a search of past shows, that guy was a guest with Art Bell on 10/16/02 - so the listing was off by 20 years!

The guest was very interesting and his book is still available through Amazon.  This show was an example of how Art could handle a real scientist.  sNoory would have asked about digging up evidence of space aliens or dead little bablies.  Or why do they call it Greenland?

My guess is that he was more organized for Dreamland. He probably had 3 x 5 cards!

Something else that might have happened would be that they may have pitched the show faster or slower in order for it to fit with the commercial breaks.

I remember, for a long time, The Rush Limbaugh show would be aired in the Los Angeles and San Diego. The shows were at different pitches because KFI would throw in longer breaks. It wasn't much, maybe 30 seconds, maybe a minute difference every hour, but you could hear the difference.

WOKV in Jacksonville did the same thing.  They had about two extra minutes of commercials at the top of the hour and sped up the show to catch up by the bottom of the hour break.  I could listen to another station that aired Rush straight, so it was easy to compare.

Sooooo.

I kind of got forced into needing to change cell phones. Since almost everybody I know, no, everybody I know, is on iPhone, I decided to get one. I'm catching on after a couple of hours, but I have hundreds of passwords still needing to be fed into websites

The one thing I've already been really disappointed by is that the Safari browser will not let me open anything on U7 Radio.

As a side note, Apple switched over to USB-C. Still, almost all of my USBC cables do not work with it as they are too loose. I guess that Apple is still doing magnetic connections and all my cheap cables are probably aluminum-ended.

There's a lady in Berkeley I've seen many times driving past a certain outdoor coffeeshop shouting something out the window at us about our sun having been stolen and replaced with mirrors, that we're all controlled by robots, etc.

No recruits so far that I'm aware of.  Don't these kooks know there's a radio show created just for them to call in and tell everyone?  Maybe she can't wait until 10pm to get it off her chest.

Yeah, the place is on a corner, right across from the campus, so lots of foot traffic.  She pulls up to the stop sign and begins her spiel, when that crosswalk is clear she makes the left turn onto a one-way, and has to stop right away for another crosswalk, so plenty of story-telling time.

I swear to god people go to that corner and the fountain area across the street just to make noise.  Frat houses just down the street, motorcycles, creepy guys in classic cars and loud music driving by to get attention, people across the street yelling, chanting, screaming, singing, yapping on their phones.  It's apparently on the route between the fire station and downtown, so sirens go by anytime a bum passes out.

Other than a little extracurricular noise sometimes, it's a nice little corner to read and chat.  Lots of kooks to talk to.

It hit me this morning that the saddest thing about me finally getting an iPhone is that everybody who gave me a hard time going back to 2007 has died. There was a core group of people who all switched from Verizon (with whom I spoke for free all day and night) to AT&T because they were forced to with the early iPhones. It’s kind of like one of my good friends gave me a hard time for driving non-Toyota cars. Since her death, I have bought eight Toyotas.

That was your chance to dive right into kooky head. Maybe she's completely normal other than that one thing.

I used to have an aunt that lived in Berkley. Passed about 10 years ago. Lived on... I think it was Dana st. Is there a Dana Street?

What’s worse, is that I’m helping friends buy cars and I’m recommending Mazdas because inventory is a lot higher and prices are a lot better. Doh! since Toyota went to eight speed transmissions, I’ve been a little down on them. in the last few years, I’ve had Subaru and Ford, Buick and Nissan. I got tired of worrying about them. The Buick had a great engine in it, but the transmission was shit. I think it was the only part of the car that was built in America, the rest was bfrom Canada.

There are all sorts of platitudes about Apple privacy, I just doubt it. There’s a Dr. Horowitz, I believe, a Harvard Technology privacy expert guy, and I was more willing to accept Apple after hearing about what Google does politically, etc...

It's a number of things.  When they first started coming out I worked at a software company, most of my friends there were engineers, were dead-set against another screen, so I didn't either.  A few years later when they were becoming very popular, I had broken up with someone who was still calling me all the time and I didn't want the electronic tether and be constantly available.

I started seeing people driving like shit while using them, staring into them while walking down the street, just the overall addiction, and didn't want that.  I still haven't figured out the constant attention, what people are doing with them seemingly for hours on end - whatever it is, it can wait until I get home.  I didn't want the obligation of reading texts and responding to them - I prefer face-to-face, or if it's really important enough go thru the extra trouble send me an email.

I've had companies I work for try to give me one.  It wasn't for my convenience.

My kids have them.  So do my parents.  Everyone I know does.  People are frustrated with me about his, but there's never been a day when I woke up and said ''I'm going to get a cell phone today''.   I get plenty of internet time in with my laptops, I guess it would be handy for ordering dinner for pick up on the way home, but that's about it.  Someday I'll wish I had one to get a Uber ride...

Who or what outfit has the entire Art catalogue, and why won't they release a sort of 1994 - 2004 'Box-Set' audio style? I end it at 04 because after that Ramona dies and he never sounded the same.

I wonder if Art had the ability/access to share such a thing with a person he liked. Like Andy, AKA Jazmunda who was a collector like I am.

10 years ago or more, Norry said in a post on BellGab the tapes were stashed all over the office and that he would have someone digitize them and let people have access.

Woke up at an ungodly early hour due to tool anger.  Anyways, made some great coffee and put on one of those Art Bell streams from paranormal radio app (Art Bell All Day)

There's that one and the U7. I rarely listen to them, but why is it that when I do.. it will suddenly skip to another show entirely without notice? So basically those fuckers even broadcast broken segments of shows as well as some full shows? It happens on both of the those apps.  This morning Art was in the middle of the discussion with the lady who knows all about the Mayan calendar, and then BAM! smack into the middle of Art talking about David Adair from another broadcast altogether, but he was referring to David Adair as Robert O. Dean!!?? Art would later apologize and clear things up.

I turned it off. No doubt that 4 minutes later another broken show started up.  ::)

I don't know how you guys do it.   :P

@KSM - the only time I have that problem is when stuff gets stuck in a buffer. Usually it's with live radio, like Sports Talk Radio. Did you maybe pause it or something? So it's playing in a buffer and then it cuts off and goes to the current stream. I listened to Somewhere in Time last night on over-the-air Radio yesterday. That was the November 2nd 1995 episode where Vince Foster suicide letter was determined to be forged. Man, Art Bell had his s*** together and had a lot of ageless episodes because the clintons are still killing people. Hahaha!

No, didn't hit pause. The phone was a few feet from me as I made coffee ETC. It's not that it does that every single time I've listened to an app, but it does happen, and at the weirdest times.

Yes. 1995. That and 1996 were fan-fucking-tastic years. Clinton INC, the Freeman standoff in Montana, Bob Dole, and so much more. 95-96 were the equivalent of a plane taking off on a great journey.  <Too much? Too nerdy?  :-\

Oh I'll check it out. Most of the shows where Art was referred to were antichrist open lines. They figure that calling him Mister Bell gave them some sort of authenticity and status perhaps.

A ton of people would say Mr Bell. It was just that this one particular guy hit it with that JC bi-tone thingy.

I can't listen to it again because I've already set my mind to it. I probably shouldn't have mentioned who I thought it sounded like to begin with. I have now caused bias.

They have a pleasant chat for several minutes as Mike accepts resonsability for the show and vows to carry the torch proudly.

Cheap Channel mismanaged the Segal transition.  For his last several shows (10?) Art interviewed old favorites.  For Segal's first shows he interviewed the exact same guests with the promos assuring us that nothing had changed.  They should have let Segal develop as his own character.  He was at his best during the Bush Gore court cases.

Decorative pictures, the not yet melted butter is more of a prop at that stage.  8)

Melting butter is spread evenly (pre syrup) on each pancake before stacking. It is then that we liberally distribute our syrup. If the stack of 3-6 is level, one can simply pour directly above the center of the top PC. In a stack of 6 you would add syrup the 3rd (already buttered) pancake before adding 4,5, and 6.

I. Know.

I just put the syrup in the batter along with mostly melted butter.  If I don't overdo it, the syrup doesn't burn and carbon up the pancake.

If eating at home (and not part of a packaged meal on a road trip), I'll add more butter and syrup as digestion lubrication.

There use to be a talk show host on KMOX (St. Louis) by the name of Jim White.  In his later years, he became something of a curmudgeon who didn't hesitate to tell callers things he found irritating.  At the top of his list was being asked the "How are you?" question to open the conversation. He also hated people who told him to "Have a good day/evening/night." to end the call.  I remember him saying once he could get at least 8-10 more callers per four hour show if people dispensed with such banalities and just made their point/asked their question.

Exactly. In one show (date unknown) I recall a caller who said to Art that he figured that callers who started the call that way ate up about 15 minutes per show. Art sighed, and said something to the effect of 'I know, but whadda ya gonna do..'

Sure enough all following callers were right back to opening their call with "Hi Art, how are you?"

Is what it is, I guess.

There is a local host who is starting to lose it, he's been nuts lately. His name is John Kentera and people call him Coach because of his local youth coaching history (he has coached Hall of Fame football and baseball players, if I recall correctly).

For everybody who says "Hi how you doing?" he goes into a 2 minute rant of something and he tried to come up with something new for each call..

I stop listening to him out of frustration, although I have to say that real deal breaker was he celebrated some high school basketball player getting off after shooting at people in a car. He's one of those people, the kid was mulatto and the son of a famous person. He only just tried to shoot a car with four people in it. Of course, nobody dare witness against him, probably because daddy is going to pay them. Oh, that was a rant.

It's what people greet each other with, and so ingrained that it's almost unreasonable to expect a nervous caller to remember not to.  Annoying though.

Maybe the host should just start the call with ''I'm fine, what's on your mind?, lol''

SuperUltraUltimate  << That's gooood!  It's a sort of mess right now. I've got several collections thus many doubles of the same night but they may vary in length. Every single collection for instance has Mels Hole as well as the other most popular broadcasts. In the mid 2000's it was impossible to find the madman Marcum shows and I would think that was one of the top 10. Not my top 10, but others made such a big deal of those shows.

yeah, as far as the files one can find around the net over the years (over 20 now) the various length shows make up the mix as opposed to all of them being the same length. Majority are in the 3.5 to 4 hour range. Almost all are commercial edited so that would account for much of that.

It's a massive undertaking and I'm sure the lovely folks handling the show now will never do it, but it would be nice to have metadata of who the guests were, maybe the callers, etc.

Maybe PremSuck will have an employee that they can't fire and they just give busy work to...

I was very groggy when I was listening, I'm presuming that it was because Ghost was pretty wild and claws were being removed. Wasn't it Ghost that ended up dying because he had so many injuries or something?

Hey Guys, I used to post here a ton back in the Bellgab Days- lately I've been more active on the Art Bell Subreddit just out of convenience.  But I feel pretty confident I've solved the JC mystery, and instantly thought about the Bellgab days and figured I'd post here too...

Just copy and pasting from reddit, hope that's alright...

------

I posted here about a year ago about the Over the Edge Radio Program - which is a "sound collage radio program" broadcasting since the early 80's.

You can read about it here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Over_the_Edge_(radio_program)

What makes this show relevant to us is, they'd cut up Art Bell snippets, dating back all the way to the late- 80's and use them in their broadcast. It's provided glimpses of Art broadcasting years earlier than anything in the archives(1992); While it's a tease because you never get more than a few minutes at a time, it's still really cool to hear.

I was listening to an episode tonight broadcast on Halloween Night 1993 (https://archive.org/details/OTE_19931000_Trick_or_Treat) - At about 1 hour and 35 minutes, the hosts are pretending to take calls (I'm nearly certain it's the hosts of the show just pretending to be callers), and someone "calls in" with a Ross Perot impersonation - He talks about people being possessed by the devil, the Mark of the Beast, Prophecies, etc. To me, it's UNMISTAKABLY JC Webster.

I've uploaded the call here(starts about 5 seconds in) - https://archive.org/details/untitled_20240103

The main host of Over The Edge Radio, Don Joyce (Maybe his last name was even where he got the name JC from?), who did a lot of the voice acting on the show unfortunately passed away in 2015. I'm sure someone here has better recollection than I, but I think it was around this time the "real" JC stopped calling into Coast to Coast AM and the calls became few and far between/obviously not the original JC.

I'm continually listening to these shows as I tinker around in the garage, etc. So if I uncover anything of relevance I'll continue to upload.

Curious to hear what you guys think, but I feel pretty confident these guys are behind JC Webster. It's obvious they were fans of Art Bell, spanning back to the late-80's just given the fact they would use snippets of his show so frequently.

It sounds a lot like him.  I heard an early SIT a good while back and it had a caller with a deeper voice but who had the same vocal mannerisms as JC including the way he said "Hello, Mr. Bell?"

In his last call to Art on MITD, real JC sounded really old and sick.

He died 2 days after MITD began.

Donald S. Joyce (February 9, 1944 – July 22, 2015)
On July 20, 2015, Bell returned with his new show Midnight in the Desert.

The JC call was months later.

Then there is the lady who told George sNoory that she knew JC and JC had died. I presume that was a recent death.

I think I heard the same thing as Juan, somebody who sounded like JC in an earlier incarnation. That includes the "Mr Bell" phrase.

I'll bet the guy is indeed dead. I think we all agree that there really was a JC, where we differ is the longevity of the real JC as opposed to all the put-ons that came after. And who's to say that there weren't more than one impostor going at any given time. This is messier than UFOlogy itself. We don't know where the truth ends, but we do know where it began - and that's with the original 1st call about Bigfoot.

Sorry @KSM, I didn't note the date. (ca. 1997) 

I am curious about the 19-year old girl from Hawaii who called in a few times that I recall. She closed this particular show "From Hawaii... To the rest of the world, goodbye."

She's of the age that she's likely online. Considering her open mind, she must have done something good with herself.

Art discussed a story that Timothy McVey admitted to his lawyers that he set the bomb for a maximum body count. He also discussed Andre Geim levitating flowers and frogs.

I believe it was a split show, guest then open lines.

No, not looking for it, curious about that caller though. I remember her voice as she sounds very young and a little immature. I wouldn't say Doc Democrat or Charlie liberal frequency of calls, but her calls stick in my head because she sounds so different than the rest of the callers.

It does sound familiar. Certain callers were so memorable, especially the younger more innocent ones. You wonder all these years later how their lives turned out.  There is the promo-call that Art used to play in the 90's that featured the 12 yr old girl who wanted a bigger allowance. She elaborated after being asked by Art "I do so much around here". Sounded like a good levelheaded kid.

If it's not nitrogen, my understanding is 10° makes a 3-4 psi difference. The bigger surprises come when somebody needs their spare tire... Doh!

So, yeah, if the tires sitting in the same temperature all year regular air will only leak something like 1%. Nitrogen is a bit more stable, but nitrogen pumping places like Costco Tire isn't weapons grade stuff, so it only drops 0.04%.

That was probably the biggest pile of crap Art ever shat on his show, that is a two decade long lie.

Mel's hole? Entertaining.
Area 51 flyer? Entertaining.
Alien autopsy? Entertaining.
Rods? Entertaining.
Whitley Strieber? Well...
George gets it? Utter and complete bullshit.

sNoory is such a social malcontent that he sticks around the radio show on holidays because he has no friends. His  remaining family probably only tolerates him because he has a paycheck coming in.

Even when Art obviously had prearranged questions with a guest, he was still in a dialogue. There was still a conversational vibe going on. Art would also pay attention and know what the questions were so he could tie things together. When a guest goes a little ahead of him or herself, George still asks the question down the road.

I have no doubt that some percentage of "unidentified" craft are local, the stuff we civilians don't need to know about because we'll never get a ride on one anyway.

The others - I say are beings from elsewhere, other planets and systems. We know that there are more planets than we can count, and therefore it stands to reason that some of them are home to other species. And if there is one other species, there are five, and if there are five, there are fifty, and if there are fifty other species, well....  what I'm saying is that there can't be just one. That would be impossible and ridiculous.

As part of that discussion, he told them he now had an "internet mail address" where he could be contacted in addition to his fax.  He read out the email address as "A R T B E L L at A O L point C O M."  He got some really funny listener questions about computers and the internet, including one from an old gal who apparently thought "computer" meant one of those massive IBM systems with punch card readers/sorters and mag tape reels like they always to show in TV cop shows.

Those mid 90s shows were so great, and comical now when we listen back. Art spelling out the website oh-so slowly for people to write down, I guess? I go on 95 binges from time to time and I remember both the shows you two are referring to.

Listening to MITD right now from 11/17/15 with Kevin Randle on UFOlogy. Art is somewhat irritated and curious about a sort of bump sound that can clearly be heard. The guest says he's sitting still and not bumping the mic or desk, so they just carry on.  What Art isn't thinking about is that Kevin is breathing in the mic when he isn't talking and it's coming across as a Plosive that sounds sort of like a bang of sorts. This is why I will always prefer the good ol' telephone interviews over skype ETC.

But I will. I am a HUGE Art Bell show nerd. I don't say any of those things about him, and as far a Heather goes, I just don't care either way. Doesn't concern me. Back to Art - I do believe there is ample proof out there to suggest that he wasn't exactly father of the year to the kids whom he sired pre-Ramona, but that applies to many so-called fathers out there. The pedo stuff and other crap is just that IMO. Crap.

Listening to Art has been a bit more emotionally difficult the last few weeks and it's not getting better. It's a lot of emotional baggage and memories and energy from when I heard these shows for the first time...

One of the things that really hollows me out is the background music for what I think is the After Dark ad. Not the C2C insider app.

I'm listening to this Somewhere In Time on the network now. During the primaries for Bob Dole's running for president.  3/19/1996. He was deciding on Comet's name...

CORRECTION: It is an alternate Coast Insider ad. Not the guitar one.
