Idea for new show.

[Pirate King Atomsk]

I was thinking... if you ever do more Radio Trainwreck, you should try getting this guy on.

I've heard him on a couple of other net-based broadcasts and he's a pretty hilarious guest because of how damn flustered he gets over video games. I don't like him personally much at all but he's an entertaining joe. All you have to do is bring up "Grand Theft Auto" and he'll go off man.

That guy is a total douche.  I'm not saying he wouldn't be funny though.

Ding! All MV would have to do is conduct a regular interview like he did with Oates or Kelso, and drop a few violent game names (Doom 3, Postal, GTA4, ect) and Thompson would provide the lulz. He wouldn't even have to try to rile him up cause just hearing developer's names like 'Rockstar" or "Id Software" sends the douchebag in a spin. The man practically defeats himself in any rational debate.

Apparently, he DID.

WOOHOO!!!! I don't know how I missed this. Thanks for the good news, now I have a reason to celebrate a little extra tonight.

I've heard some wishful thinking that Art may be in talks about bringing a new show to the air. I am afraid to hold my breath on that one. I do wish something, anything, would compete against Snoory. I miss having an entertaining show to listen to as I work on my computer into the wee hours of the morning.

As it stands, all that is on opposite Snoory is infomercials from 1-5 am (e.s.t.)

[Frys Girl]

If Snoory dies and George Knapp doesn't get the post, that'll be sad. I always wonder "why is Noory still alive?" But I also say that about Rush Stinkbomb and he survived shovelling pain killers into his gullet..... so noory will probably outlive all of us here.

Thompson first met Janet Reno in November 1975, when he applied for a job as an assistant State's Attorney in Dade County, but was not hired.[12] In 1988, he ran for prosecutor against then incumbent Dade County State Attorney Janet Reno, after she had declined his request to prosecute Neil Rogers.[13] Thompson gave Reno a letter at a campaign event requesting that she check a box to indicate whether she was homosexual, bisexual, or heterosexual. Thompson said that Reno then put her hand on his shoulder and responded, "I'm only interested in virile men. That?s why I'm not attracted to you."[14][15] He filed a police report accusing her of battery for touching him

That's from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Thompson_(attorney)

That guy sounds like a complete douche.

Lol, this is my favorite:

In sending documents to opponents, Thompson would frequently attach a photocopy of his driver's license, with a photo of Batman pasted over his own. Thompson said, "I have sent my opponents pictures of Batman to remind them I'm playing the role of Batman. Just like Bruce Wayne helped the police in the movie, I have had to assist the sheriff of Broward County." He also wore a Batman wristwatch.[20] Thompson compared Campbell to the Joker.[21] Thompson also said, "I understand as well as anybody that the First Amendment is a cornerstone of a free society?but there is a responsibility to people who can be harmed by words and thoughts, one of which is the message from Campbell that women can be sexually abused."[

I'll bet there has been talk. A year ago this past January when Art was on he said "look for the Art Bell website in the future" and that was all that was said. I know he has since sold the radio station in Pahrump so that might let out the possibility of him doing a broadcast from there. I would also wager the owners of C2C had a clause in the sales agreement with Art that he could not get back on the air with his own show for a certain number of years.

i agree ,a douche bag!!!!
