Art Bell

[K_Dubb]

So after a long 1 month death defying stay in hospital, can I ask what did I miss without having to read 400 pages or so?

Ooh mustn't forget:  Art broadcast the news about that funny star, citing a source from within NASA who said experts there have ruled out so many possible explanations that they think there's a 50% chance it's something made by aliens that's intermittently blocking the starlight.  Art said he's waited his entire life to broadcast a news story like this.

I don't know, they'll certainly be talking about KIC8462852.  Perhaps  you could ask how much mass and energy it would take to build it or something like that.  Me, I would ask if Tyson had ever tried dialing (KIC) 846-2852, and why we don't just try phoning them if we already know the number.

Oh, that's a good question too, the smart part not the smartass part  thanks!

[TigerLily]

I just hope all goes smooth, no internet issues and no prank callers.
Prank calls should be a Hoagie exclusive, or when Art has some bat shit crazy guest on.

Opines the Hoagie prank call expert. Another huzzah for last night

[ItsOver]

Honestly, I would much rather have another David Jacobs show than Kaku or Tyson.  I don't listen to Art for popular science.  I just hope Tyson tweets his appearance as that would be great for the show.

Same here but I hope Tyson's appearance further spreads the word The Man is back and he's taking no prisoners.

Noory proclaimed people listen to him for the truth. I thought you'd appreciate a laugh.

Hilarious! 

I was having trouble remembering the name of the star, but now that you've got me singing it to Jenny/867-5309 the name is an earworm that won't stop.  Thanks, Georgie.

I just tweeted the following to Neil.  Perhaps y'all should do the same.

I want to call in tonight but I need a really smart question

I'd like to help you TigerLily, but I don't know anything about boxing. :

Glad you made it.  Here are the highlights (?):

1.  Leo Ashcraft quit as newsman, replaced by Amy, previously known as the haunted skeptic, a former writer of his news stories.  Leo accused Art of failing to pay him; Art posted a copy of a check for about $4000 as a rebuttal.  He started his own show with J. Neil something to challenge Art directly, and posted wild things on Facebook for the amusement of his enemies.  Per reviews from brave listeners the show sucks ass even more than expected.

2.  Someone fired several shots near Art's house during a broadcast.  Art played music while he checked things out but continued broadcasting.  No real details have emerged since.

3.  Art has added several new radio affiliates and appears to be wholeheartedly pursuing the radio route, arranging for a satellite feed that radio stations can pick up easier than his streaming.  He is teasing that he will soon add many others.

His shows have stayed very much in line with what many of us remember from years ago, playing to mixed reviews here as expected.

if Tyson does not see Jaz's tweet to post about being on Art's show then most of Neil's followers wont know

[jazmunda]

I know and that is why I suggested that more people tweet him. Strength in numbers. Bellgabbers Unite.

[Barfly]

I'm not sure if he will do all 3 hours, im thinking 2 at best, if he does get 3 hours i hope the callers ask intelligent questions.

Tyson will see it. He's prominently featured on my vision board today. Right next to the LOST lottery numbers and a picture of Scarlett Johansson.

I'm anticipating Bill the AAA from West Hartford will make his MITD debut.

i do like the fact the pic of MITD is pretty much the one from Cosmos lol

Scarlett Johansson is over rated, so many hot chicks in porn these days i have no clue why some guys fuss about Hollywood stars.
I dont care about the "use your imagination" thing to picture them naked, i just want action!
Why spend 90 min on a film when i can be done in less than 10, i dont want a plot or a tease, i want to get a nut FFS!
What was the subject again? 

[ItsOver]

We're talking Jaz here.  Destroyer of the Universe.

You should replace TCM's intro man.

[K_Dubb]

Broadcast a story like what?  That something has been found in the universe that we can't explain yet?  There have been plenty of news stories like that.

Well yeah but I was trying to quote Art as accurately as I remember -- he sure was convinced it was a 50% chance of aliens.  I hope Tyson sets him straight.  I feel a little protective of Art since his return and I worry he looked like a goober.

I wonder if Art will bring up Richard C Hoagland, and his idiotic ideas.  It seems like he should since he's been on with Art so often.

Talk about Art looking like a gobber......I sure as hell hope he doesn't.

jazzz-moooooonda

Art knows Dick is a nut, he knows most of them are nuts..hell Art is a bit nuts.
I wonder if Art gets a cut of whatever cash Dick brings in, maybe Keith gets that, not sure of the arrangement..food for thought though.

I think that Art is a deep old file and will leave the arcologies where they belong.

[Sumthins Goin On]

Geez that will do for now!
Got stuck on the floor in a very painful ordeal and had to have rescue pick me up and transport to the hospital where they kept me for a month whilst feeding me for a spinal infection which hit a previous 1990's surgery's location. Being treated with the monster of all antibiotics Vancomycin twice a day and for 2 weeks more. Hence the no legs and excruciating pain. Oxy as well The scary part is that the spine bone connected to brain bone.
