Art Bell Announcement

Danger!UFO · June 24, 2014, 10:36:10 AM

And let C2C stay where they are at on Sirius. Yeah, because of them this wouldn't work out. I still think it's a good idea.

For what it's worth, I am putting together the home studio...

No cowbell?
Jimmy would have a cowbell.

Steve Warner is the best post-Art radio I've heard, Jimmy is a close (or distant?) second, depending on his guests.

No need for that question mark.
Jimmy is so far behind that he has been lapped.

Quit playing games with my heart....

I think Steve is more consistent, but when Jimmy clicks with a quality guest, his shows are as good as it gets. A few months ago his interview with Pope and Burroughs was the best Rendelsham program I've ever heard. His best show IMO was his interview with Phillip Mantle. Mantle was responsible for breaking the story on how the "alien autopsy" film was faked. Art in his prime couldn't have done a better job.

They both have decent production values. It amazes me how some of the other shows on DMRN -- some of which have been around for years -- have such awful production. And the shows on some of the other paranormal networks are even worse.

My C.CRANE wifi radio is locked down on the 24/7/365 ABBA channel as all of yours should be :O

We played this game a year ago. Until I hear Art back on some form of show I'll stay cynical.

Art Bell returns with a new show.

Dark Traction.

Watch for it.

I have to image that C2C has a clause that would prevent such a thing. Also, why would Sirius want 2 channels with largely the same thing?

Jackstar · June 25, 2014, 07:57:45 AM

Does Art Bell's non-compete preclude him from being the banker on Deal Or No Deal? Because that would be a worthy fucking show. The satellite would lose earth-lock and everything.

dan7800 · June 25, 2014, 08:18:42 AM

Art is going to take over as a guest judge on people's court.

Sirius only has one paranormal show with C2C. The other shows on that same channel have nothing to do with that topic.

If I'm a program director at Sirius and I can place the DMRN in the line up and have an entire channel that deals with the paranormal I'm going try and do it. That would be a big seller I would think. Plus, Art comes back who apparently is already under contract. Maybe tweek the current contract so that Jimmy Church can be Art's back up if need be. Jimmy can lead or follow Art's show. Keith has already done the work. He stays on board and Paul comes back to produce Art's show. The DMRN can continue to stream on the internet.

Pride will have to be swallowed on both sides but both sides win in the end.

c2c is a paranormal show? i thought the new direction was a "variety show" .

Danger!UFO · June 25, 2014, 10:08:07 AM

Ooops! My bad. You make a good point. :

The thing with Sirius. I know. Dream on. It would just be nice to have Art back sooner than later. I'm tryin'!!

He'd have done well to shed some of his old guests such as Hoaxy, that Nostrildumbass guy, etc., and let them wallow in the muck that is C2C. The "new" Art Bell show could've been something a little more evolved, something more worthy of a guy of Art's stature, but still edgy and interesting. Oh well... What could've been.....

yes, your post resonates deep. Right on the mark for me. And the one before it from paper*boy.

Jackstar · June 25, 2014, 01:21:09 PM

I'm simply relieved that the terrible injustice that was done to Andrei Sakarhov and his family is not going to overshadow whatever Art's announcement is going to be.

What??

kf5iwe · June 25, 2014, 01:52:57 PM

All right now children, settle down out there. The announcement draweth NYE !!! God I need a real life

Starting to think I'm actually going to be able to find out exactly what that announcement is.

It was Keith Rowland or someone's girl when she was like 4 or 5... can't remember her name though. Think Art had her on for a bit when she was older...

I believe it was Producer Paul's daughter.

There is no posted message on www.artbell.com presaging any "announcement". There's no Twitter activity from Art www.twitter.com/@artbell51 since last November. Art hasn't even responded to all the birthday wishes on his Facebook page. Three forms of outreach at his direct control (not to mention he is still a member of this very forum and has not logged in since February) yet we are to believe he has chosen Jimmy Church as his emissary?
How do we get to this point?
If he does pass a message through Church, it will only be to say "Staying retired- bid you adieu."
But I even doubt that.

Actually Jimmy said the message came from Keith.

I am pretty sure Keith and Art have been friends or worked with each other for decades.

I have no reason not to believe Keith or Jimmy.

I thought Fort Rock was his Emissary. I would have went with Avery Brooks. More experience.
