Art Teases News on Monday that will be "Shocking for Some." Any Guesses?

[AppealPlay]

Art is doing two things. Both, of which, I recommended long ago:

1) He is cutting way back. Perhaps 2 nights/week.

2) He is returning to standard terrestrial radio. Possibly even going back to Coast.

Those two developments would be shocking to some -- like most of us. Anything else, not so much.

2 nights a week?  Bite your tongue!  4 would be fine but 2, while better than 0, would make me sad.

Here we go again reacting to meaningless kryptic language.  Just tell us or don't tell us.  Speculation screws with people and turns some people off.  What is gained by setting announcements up like this?  Confusion, rumors, impatience... Need I go on?   I am more interested in just enjoying the product rather than being set up to think the worst...the best?

+1 ....here we go again is right ....<sigh>

Although I love Art, am more than happy that he's back on the air, I am sick and tired of him jerking his long time most loyal listeners around with these silly games..

Art, you have an announcement....well then let's have it when you are ready and able to spit it out.

Art just posted in Facebook -

There will be some that will hate me for this and for that I am sorry.


Doesn't sound good....

OK, latest cryptic Art reply:

So, so far we have that people should subscribe to Time Travelers and that some will be upset with what is coming... Any new guesses?

Can't blame him. But, the urge to have people subscribe makes me think this is not the answer. So confused!

If he's cutting back I'll probably cut back on my time traveler subscription

Thanks, I found it. I had to go through a bunch of comments.

Sounds to me like Time Traveler price increase or the show no longer having a free stream.  Could be likely depending on costs to stream it.

[BC]

How about this...Midnight is going to 7 days (taking it to a new level?) but Art will host only Monday through Thursday (some may hate him for that?) and the host(s) for the other three nights will be well known hosts like George Knapp (I am afraid it will be a shock for some--Dave?) or John B Wells? Gave it a shot, but I must say--don't really like playing this game.

[Northern Nights]

Could it be that MITD is getting reduced to two hours, with the final hour going to The Other Side of Midnight to make it three hours?

[coaster]

Hes urging people to subscribe, so its pretty obvious he has axed the free stream.

Either that or going to 4 days.

[dan7800]

Sooooo much speculation at this point. What evidence is there to support the 4 day a week idea?

If that is what it is, then I don't view that as an issue. Even 1 day a week from Art is still great.

[Mild Bill]

I will not be shocked, nor hate Art...I will not be shocked, nor hate Art.

OK then, now I'm ready for Monday.

[Alaskana]

Premier radio fires Noory, hires Art and restores him to his rightful place as the king of Coast To Coast AM? That or Art's going back on Sirius, this time with free streaming for all. Or... Art retires for the eight hundredth time? Hey, you heard it here first, folks.

[akwilly]

I hope it is Art going back to sirius

Totally this too. Of course, he'll have to be more careful with the quality of guests.

"Mysterious and reassuring?" 

[Alaskana]

Oh yeah, I forgot to say - whatever happens, blame Jazmunda. 

[Dave Noorie]

He will interview Trump.

Some will hate him for it.  Subscribe to be a Time Traveler for the archive, etc.

K.

[EarthAlien007]

Maybe Art is signing on with bigger stations and he has to go along with an agreement for advertising time, meaning we'll get more commercials. Art said, "it's about taking the show to a new level", so I don't think downsizing is what this is about.

[guitardog]

4hrs 4days a week

[MV/Liberace!]

Art is having his left arm replaced with an elephant trunk, and the intro music on the show will be replaced with a whistled version of Journey's Don't Stop Believin' performed in a lower key.
