Art Bell

[Mind Flayer Monk]

Checking into it, man there were a LOT of shows before they bought it. I see Dave has not logged in since Feb 11 but you can be sure he is here under another name as is Lisa and I bet Tom as well. They read every word, right guys?

Art

I imagine logging in and reading Bellgab is the best part of the job for some people over there. Noory does his cock of the walk routine at work and everyone gets a little secret smile.

They think their last best hope is shutting down the Art Bell streams so that people will be forced to pay for their service in order to get their Art Bell fix.

Hardest laugh I've had today. Fantastic.

[PB the Deplorable]

All of their recent moves indicate they still think you are a massive threat.

Which you are. 

Not so fast.

Here is the July 2013 press release announcing George's contract extension.  They seem to think very highly of George:

http://www.allaccess.com/net-news/archive/story/120381/george-noory-renews-long-term-coast-to-coast-am-de

“The continued growth and success of COAST TO COAST AM is a testament to GEORGE’s incredible talent and dedication,” stated JULIE TALBOTT, President/Content And Affiliate Services for National Media Groups, CLEAR CHANNEL MEDIA AND ENTERTAINMENT.  “Each year, GEORGE takes COAST to COAST AM to new heights, and we couldn’t be happier to extend our partnership with him for years to come.”

So I don't think they would be too concerned about Art or anyone else. 

Unless Julie was lying

Kitchen's heating up, BellGabbers.

And it was cool talking to you tonight, Art.  Made my year.

Top of head is a tatoo..


Just someone looking for Dave...

[williedee]

We need to organize and mobilize to make this happen people! lol, i'm sure ya'll can come up with some humdingers

[sydtron]

Bahahahah! !!!  Worst of GN Stream. I raise my glass to those magnificent bastards!

Wow, just looked at the new Coast Web Site on my phone and it looks exactly like Keith's site, even the colors are the same, amazing.

Here's the source code meta info on their new site. Still using the Art Bell magic apparently, though key words are not necessary these days.

From coasttocoastam.com:

<meta name="description" content="Coast to Coast AM - UFOs, strange occurrences, life after death and other unexplained phenomena. Overnight talk radio with daytime ratings." />
<meta name="keywords" content="coast to coast am, radio, ufos, creatures, extraterrestrial, supernatural, myths, legends, monsters, space, universe, science, mystery, sci-fi, george noory, ian punnett, george knapp, art bell, somewhere in time" />

[SaucyRossy]

About U7 getting the cease and desist.

No worries. Within the next two to five years Coast to Coast am will be dead.

Podcasts like serial, with production value and well executed stories presented are the future of "talk radio".

Art, your next show will be great as always but even you have said the writing is on the wall and radio as we know it is dying. So I applaud you for making such a hard effort to adjust your show to make it available online for free live.

So, in the mean time you can make your own u7 station for a relatively low cost by finding the mega batch of shows, loading them up on an iPod and hitting play.

That is what I said on the GNS thread, hahaha. I think not only is Dave lazy... but so is his web team. Maybe Keith should go after C2C for stealing his ideas.

There is enough suck there to keep them going forever.

This is what I have been doing for a long, long time.

[MV/Liberace!]

I'm hoping that it will be more like Total Recall, and less like the Donner party. If there are hot chicks than I might change my mind... and be down for a one way ticket to Mars.

ensign gomez.

I have to be honest, first of all I did not get bags of money, most of it went to the owners, second it might be possible that they do not own rights to shows that aired prior to buying the show, I honestly don't know and will try to find out. Again though I think it's long past time to stop using them as a crutch for Dave who should have changed everything by now if for nothing else his own self esteem.

Art

Dave can't stand on his own two feet, and if they cut the shows... they would have no income because my guess is those who pay to download them are doing so for your show. Perhaps someone can just kick the crutch out from under him.

[Evil Twin Of Zen]

Sigh, if this is because of what is coming in July I am sorry. They never fail to react in some fear based way. I am sure this will be followed by Dave coming to say it's out of his hands. By now those programs are so old that I don't see the point, frankly I don't see the point of airing one every Saturday night either. Dave should own what he does after all these Years without having to use anything I did, either music, form of announcer, old shows or anything else. I think it is one of the things that haunts him by always being in the shadow of what was. I did tell him when he started that he should make the show his own by putting his stamp on it, change everything up and own it.

Omg, I had no idea she was on Star Trek: TNG too.

I'm sure the Coast Insider memberships will flood in because of this.  :

U7 Radio strikes back



Here is a link to U7 Radio's playlist.

http://u7radio.org/playlist.html

That list includes many of the SiriusXM Dark Matter shows, surely PremRat can't complain about them, only Sirus could?

[nextgen.fm]

Surely they want folk tuning into the nightrat instead of listening to some classics

[Morgus]

Listening to the Future Theater show tonight on Dark Matter Radio network, the guest was Dr. J (Dr. John Andrew Ilia - host of Researcher on a Mission) and he announced that he has communicated with Art Bell and been chosen as his new producer to arrange guests for him on the new streaming show.

As someone who has been working closely with streaming old art bell shows, I can tell you how much money I make from it per month... -$25 (that's the cost of my server payment, i've never asked for donations and don't need them, but i'm sure not making any money off of these shows lol).

This was announced a month or two ago.

I think we should make a "citizen's cease and desist" on Premiere and tell them to stop playing Art Bell Somewhere in Time.

i think the airing of somewhere in time helps art.  when people hear noory five nights a week and then have the opportunity to compare that to a classic art bell broadcast, it just so clearly illustrates the decline in product quality over there.  that's a good thing for art.  from art's position, imagine what it's like when your competition sucks so badly that they compete with you by playing... your old shows.  this has to be an unprecedented arrangement in the history of talk radio syndication.  i don't know of any long form talk radio show that gets replayed 21 years after it originally aired.  i think that speaks so directly to the quality of art's show.  it seems to me like SIT is free promotion of art's current endeavors.  as i said in another thread, most college freshmen and sophpmores can't remember 911 because they were too young.  the point is, it's been a lot of years since art was on the radio nightly.  those SIT reruns kept old fans plugged in to his brand and made new fans aware of it.  i think that's all a win for art.

LOL falkies fame is spreading!
