Man did I miss this Onan character while I was gone. BTW, driving through the Mojave Desert the other night, listening to Coast on the AM radio (the way it's supposed to be heard) I heard Richard Toadgland ask Noory something like "Do you know how many (x) sized meteors fall to earth every single day?" George answered- "More than I can count!" And Richard says "One hundred and eight." Hah! Maybe the show is just more funny in the middle of the night, in the Mojave, blasting from an AM radio.

I'm all like 'whaat?'

Then I was all like

Orbital - Halcyon On and On

Wow!! What a roller coaster this is turning out to be. I missed out on Dark Matter due to not being able to get Sirius in Australia. I have since listened to it online and I cannot wait until a new show starts. It seems that all my favourite 90s things are coming back in style.

Seriously though,

Y'all have Morrel mushrooms in your part of the world?

I'm glad you weren't able to listen. We already have our quota of 1 Australian filled, and Jazz already did enough damage by personally forcing Art to leave Sirius.

I must have missed something. Sorry I didn't realise that Aussies has a bad reputation here. I don't know who she is. I can't remember hearing her on Dark Matter.

LOL. They are only joking. She is actually a gnarly dude, and he is alright. Though it is true about him constantly calling in to Art show. He was the dude who was ALWAYS on the international line. He was Andy from Australia, had a silly little girl like giggle every time, which is why you thought it was a girl. I also hear he is really into horses.

I thought there were only 25 people in Australia. How is it you don't know the criminal Jazmunda?

Oh I think you mean that guy Andy. He was cool. Art liked the guy and he helped out with the Skype lines. Does he post here? Hey mate!

I always loved hearing the international lines and listening out for my fellow Aussies. Hopefully with a show that is accessible worldwide we will get even more internationals joining in the fun.

Andy = Jazmunda.

Jaz is also the host of the resident podcast of the site, called the GABcast.

He doesn't post here much anymore. He was outed as a "Science Informer" for Richard C. Hoagland and hasn't been around since. Also, Art DID personally say that he would have stayed on the air, but Jazz's incessant calls were too much to deal with.

Aussie Dave · April 07, 2015, 04:34:22 AM

Oh dear. I hope Art doesn't tar all Aussies with the same brush.

I think these guys are pulling your leg. Art seems to like the guy as do many on this site including myself. He's very knowledgeable on classic Art Bell shows and has assisted me in finding certain episodes. For some reason these two guys have issue with him and continually hound him that he was responsible for ending Dark Matter.

I thought so.

Back on topic. Art Bell is a top bloke. George Noory is as dry as a dead dingo's donga.

((((I fondly recall seeing Kansas and The Moody Blues (yep - an EPIC concert) at The Muny Opera outdoors in Forest Park in St. Louis in 1991 ... my cousin and I were sitting 5th row center .. so close that when Kansas' violinist slung his hair we were hit with droplets of his sweat (yep THAT close) ... it was ONE Helluva concert .. the Blues' Hayward and Lodge with their many classic tunes and Kansas' awesomeness ... one very memorable night.))))

It is a small world. While I was not at that concert, I saw both Kansas and The Moody Blues together in Michigan that same year. It must have been the same tour. And it was an EPIC concert!

laserjock · April 07, 2015, 09:42:10 AM

If you think Noory is basically butt jam, you are among good company here at Bellgab, because many of us here have become weary of the guy, and we've even given Noory a complex about it. Aussie Dave, we even call Noory "Dave" and "Snoory" and other names. One time he claims he almost killed himself eating a microwaved pizza roll (the filling was hotter than he expected and it burned his throat and he couldn't breath), so we joke about that too. George isn't too bright and doesn't do show prep and asks disengaged questions of his guests. There is a George Noory Sucks thread you will feel right at home in. I no longer listen to the show and have tired of even worrying about it.

MV, I'm adding my thanks to you, too, for having this forum which we all enjoy!

thank you, but it's not false humility when i say i really don't do much. on the contrary, i make pretty good money from the forum, so it's not like running things is an act of self flagellation for me.

Jazmunda will have to stop posting here. This is the no Australians club, and since that is plural it means we can have one Australian. Welcome aboard Aussie Dave.

Jazmunda has gone missing. He was last seen climbing into the trunk of a midnight blue Trans-Am just before it sped away from the curb at Melbourne Airport. Some dude who looked like a dude playing another dude was driving the getaway car, with Emma Peel riding shotgun.

I used to have a 1999 Navy Blue Metallic Trans-Am Firehawk

Sweet car.

Jaz smells funny. Do all Aussies smell funny?

Danger!UFO · April 07, 2015, 01:24:39 PM

Newsflash! Reliable sources are reporting that Jazmunda has been seen near Pahrump, Nevada!

Danger!UFO · April 07, 2015, 01:25:54 PM

Actually, I'm hoping everything is OK with Jaz.

Nick el Ass · April 07, 2015, 01:56:38 PM

Maybe Dave sent that diseased Koala he uses for his avatar after him.

I just discovered the show 'Louie' on FX starring comedian Louis C.K. This is the fifth season. I don't know how I missed this show. Very funny!

Louie: Uncomfortable

I'm posting this because I think 'Louie' would fit in well as a member here on BellGab. :

Anyone else know this show?

indigoo · April 07, 2015, 04:12:49 PM

So what's the latest? I've missed the last week or two of posts and it seems like some shit went down...

There was a deal? Then not? Now possibly a new deal?
