ok so then lets not say you "robbed them" you just billed them for services or a product that was not delivered.  Ahhhhh SHIT YOU ROBBED THEM!!!

The dude is homeless. Let's cut him some slack. Statute of limitations is well passed. He is trying to reform himself.

There are questioner/critics focused on things like the stalker and internal politics. Most of these things will have no clear answers for those of us not in the know. The Heather choice is an ongoing situation which needs to be addressed lest there remain a group of unhappy campers. I made a similar post a little earlier in hopes of getting some kind of meaningful answer.

Oh, you mean; how Heather had no qualifications for hosting a show of that caliber? An unknown besides a few GabCasts? She quits her job, travels to Art's home for a meeting, then is named producer on a whim...

This is America, where "homeless" people have iPhones with the Obamaphone data plan.

Mcdonalds? Thats what I would do if I were homeless. free Wifi, cigarette butts right outside the door and food in the trash. What more would you need?

[Mr. Fidget]

Ooof...nasty.  Can't imagine being batshit crazy enough to donate money to Hoagie though.  And after all, it was given as a donation, so that's slightly different than making a sale.

It sounded like people sent you money for a product that you never delivered.  Are you saying that's not true?  Did you send them their money back?

You are remanded back to bellgab 101, can I call you Josh?

Cell phone, libraries, schools, internet cafes, restaurants, coffee shops,  etc etc. Everyone, who wants it, can get on the internet often for free. My town fathers, in all their wisdom, even installed plugs near benches so homeless people can charge up their phones and tablets on our dime.

[Value Of Pi]

Good questions

Yes, solid questions (which also impact on the Heather questions raised earlier). As has been said in the past, it's nuts to expect an answer on this type of thing except for Art and DMDN's accommodating attitude towards fans on social media.

[Richard Groyper]

Bottom Line: Art's wife won't let him walk to his on site studio. Case closed. I'd like that 20 grand in cash, I don't accept checks.

I think it's awesome that your initials are MF.  You can call me "Josh" if I can call you "MFer"

That's right. And BTW, I gathered all the firewood last night. It's your turn now. If we're going to be unhappy campers, we need to at least share the misery.

[Jesus Undercarriage]

Art, I can be of a bit of help here perhaps.

I know a PI in Henderson Nevada who works mostly on cyber issues but has plenty of experience with boots on the ground. He's good, licensed and would probably be happy to look at this 'case'.

I have experience with crowdfunding (indigogo/Kickstart etc.) and would be happy to put together a crowd funding campaign to cover the expenses of having an actual, licensed PI go after the "stalker"- Hell, I would even donate to the venture. We could hire either the gentleman I know or someone else- So long as they are Licensed and you would be willing to have the finding be issued in public (minus any personal information that needs to be withheld)

This would cost you nothing, would possibly catch this evil stalker (technology is great and the modern PI has many tricks to uncover information about nearly anything) and could put this entire thing to rest. regardless, if your life is in enough perceived danger for you to walk away from MITD then surely having a PI investigate this so you can get back to what you love is very reasonable- Especially if we can do this with zero cost to you- Which we can.

I may be a dick and you may dislike me a tiny bit (lolz) but I am a resourceful motherfucker and can get things done. I'm not talking smack, I can and will 100% set this up and if you dont want the PI who I know, we will find another one (The PI will be the one in charge of KS funds as well so there will be no speculation about where the loot is going-)

The point is- I am putting my money where  my mouth is. I will do the work to get this going and even donate the first bit towards the crowdfunding venture and all you have to do is agree. No cost to you and the possibility of getting this entire matter ended.

I'm not trolling about this- I am calling you out. If there really is a stalker most people would jump on the chance to have a PI on the case without costing them anything. If there isnt, more wild inconsistency will be immediately evident during the very initial stages of the base investigation. Either way, we will get an expert opinion and it costs you nothing. You have nothing to lose.

Fuck
Off.

I do, it's my turn. 

Were this still December, the zeal I felt for Art's return would've kept me warm. Never more, never more. We may have to resort to 'spooning for Art.' *shivers*

[Mr. Fidget]

So you didn't deliver, and you didn't refund.  Call it whatever you want:  theft, fraud, robbery...it doesn't matter; anyway you cut it, your name is dirt until you pay those people back, or make good on the orders.  /click

I could tag that bs to pieces.
Don't be tool, fool.

Keep those claws on your own side of the bed please.

[creepygreenlight]

EDIT: It would appear to me that Art does not intend to return to hosting the show.

It would appear that way...

1) Art already stated that he has "no relationship" with the network, so that's that.  I'm not sure how much clearer he could be on that part.

2) Art seems to only make statements that preserve subscribers and maybe he's posting here to "dangle the carrot" a bit for the ones who still believe he may return unannounced.  Maybe he's still financially vested in the success of DMDN, who knows, but obviously he's watching what he says here pretty carefully.

If i was homeless i dont think id be wasting my time on bellgab.

What else would you do?  Shitting in the street and beating off in dark alleyways gets old.

[DarKPenguiN]

Fuck
Off.

Oh, because actually trying to do something to help Art is terrible? what have you done besides lick nuts? Forget my motives, if the stalker IS real I am offering a way to resolve this issue at no cost to Art. this is a win/win.

If I had a stalker I wouldnt give a shit about the motives of someone who was willing to do all the legwork for me, get me a PI and help me get back to work or life or whatever...

I'm putting up a legitimate offer. Art didnt use his 20k "reward" to hire a PI (and for 20K  you could get a team on that shit) so I assume the idea of parting with money over this isnt 'worth the peace of mind' to Art. So we (the fans) can fund the investigation.

I dont see a problem. I'm actually the only one offering a valid solution.- What do you suggest ?

[GravitySucks]

The dudes got skills, hope he finds his way.

I should have said, "Art never intended to stay long term, we've been had. Again."

[creepygreenlight]

The problem is that you are not a legitimate person.  Art isn't going to even acknowledge your existence here, so maybe you should take the implied suggestion of shutting the fuck up unless you have something amusing to say?  Seems like 99% of your posts are pretty much the same thing, over and over again.
