Art Bell Quits Dark Matter

[bateman]

Completely. Instead of giving away one radio and one year subscription during Spooky Matter, they should have allowed Art to have a give-away once a week. No contest. Just be caller #51 

That's actually a great idea. See, this is what's so fucking frustrating. There were OPTIONS, but instead he hit the eject button.

[Producer-Paul]

2 hours & counting, Paul. Your bet?

I spent time as ATC (Air traffic controller)  I learned never to bet.

[Coz]

The Titor shows where amongst my favs.
Oh, and that one guy who called the Area 51 employee line in a frantic state. This was from 1997. His call didn't last long as he got questionably cut off. Entertaining, thought provoking with a little scary...wonderful!

Indeed.

Sometimes I got back and listen to the Titor shows on Youtube.... And even though I know it's BS at this point, I get that weird sense of maybe-wonderment that was felt back in the day.

We are of the same ilk I think.

Many wonderful memories. Even goofy ones like a caller during open lines that claimed to collect celebrity toenail clippings - Art's reaction was classic.

[Mhayhurst]

Well, on the stream we are now on part 3 of Kaku's Time special. It's an hour. Then I'm assuming part 4, cosmic time, also an hour, will follow which should bring us up to 10pm Est. We'll see what's after that...

[Cynnie]

Hiya , ive been busy ( real life soo gets in the way sometimes ) so im behind on all the drama ..
Any new developments ?

[Marc.Knight]

Yes, any ideas Paul?

I remember that call, Art had like a "weirdest people only" line or something like that.

Then later some guy called in who designed sex toys or something?

Then a guy who ate rocks...

Yeah I remember that one.

Ahh yes! The wonderment of it all! It's still refreshing just to think back to that time. (haha no pun intended!) Yes of course, Mr. Titor's tale ended up being quite tall, but at the time (sorry, it seems I'm stuck on the time thing), it gave a sense of awe. And we as humans relish that sense of awe which is why once we experience it, we want to reclaim it, for it's simply in our nature.

And yes, I believe that perhaps in this instance we are of the same ilk.

So how do you know it's BS?

In fairness if you called Sirius up and spoke to them they would give you a FREE radio if you signed up for a year. They would also discount your rate.

That depends where you left off. A terrible storm is hitting the Philippines, so art's probably dealing with that at the moment. Sirius is erasing every mention of art from their site. Michio Kaku is broadcasting on art's livestream but I'm not listening because I never could stand Kaku. And I'm listening to Depeche Mode.

We're holding our breath as we wait.  I'm baking brownies.

Does anyone remember the mystical order of the declawed gerbil?

[Agent : Orange]

Paul, despite what happens here in the next while, I do hope you'll stick around and contribute to the board. You're an interesting guy and it was nice having you around.

[McPhallus]

Kinda sad with this just hanging out there: 


11/07 - Thu - Waiting on SiriusXM

Might as well change it to Waiting for Godot at this point.

Seconded.

[Sumthins Goin On]

Yes, but that story was full of shit.

[SomeVelvetMorning]

I liked the band that wrote a couple of songs for Art: "Please Lord if I'm abducted, don't let it be the grays" and "Why should I worry bout Y2K?"

[bateman]

aaaaaaaand the stream has disappeared from the website.

[Shastalexy]

Thanks Tertiaryiman ~ that was sweet!

Seraphim27... Ummmm, can I stay?  Even though I am new to this group... I am from the Grassy Knoll... The best nights of all when we'd gather at our desk tops, and summrstars would lock the door and throw away the key!  Fun times.. Is Coz possibly from way back then? Anyone else?

Paul, if I am flying a Bellanca Super Viking do I say 'Bellanca' or 'Super Viking' to identify myself? Is either acceptable?

[Sumthins Goin On]

Like I said full of shit

lol yep

[Nighthawk]

I had a customer bring one of my cars I give out as curtosy cars back an hour ago. I decided to take it out to the store. In the back it is full of witch craft books. Some weird bottle of liquid that looks perhaps like white wine in a wine bottle in a special leather case? Literature about using LSD and other drugs? im really tripped out right now. And with it getting so dark out and wet out right now? its only 5 pm here. Now kaku on the stream is really sending me on a trip lol

WOrking for me my friend. You should ask them to stream Dark Weekend. Also they could stream MV's podcast. That would be awesome!!!

Dang, you're right. Although I'm still listening to it, the links are gone from the testing page. Good think I bookmarked them
