Art Bell cancels show for good

[maren]

Dammit.  Just God Effing Dammit.
I hope whoever was terrorizing Art gets their dick caught in a revolving door.
Thanks for one final ride, Art.  It was better than ever.

Agree, sir --this time around it was almost joyous! 

[JamesMcDonald]

Hahahahaha! I just came back to say "I told you so!"   So glad I didn't get invested this time around.  The 8th time he has done this!

Frankly it's a toss up who the bigger losers are. Us for signing up for the subscription service or you for coming here and acting like a little weasel by saying that.

[Robert]

Family first of course.  Perhaps you could put a replay on tonight.  Then, move your broadcast point away from the dwelling until the intruder is caught  The broadcast point could be your choosing, but I am sure there would be a local radio station that would lend a studio for awhile.  Problem solved.

Do we know that?  Someone wanted him off the air/wire that badly, so it's not likely a local problem.  My question is whether that someone wants him off ham radio too.

I'm more concerned about what happens to the NFL podcast once the season is over.

[Just Me]

I'm tellin ya, the guys lost his marbles and he knows it. Rather than embarrass himself, he bows out under fire. The shadow mouse on the control room equipment and voices incident was the coup d'é·tat bow out set to a mystery.

[Mastodonkey]

I don't even care. It's all just a good laugh at this point. God fucking damn Art

[anunnaki]

Ha! Maybe Art read my post about helping those that toiled relentlessly for him. I say it again - how come Art with all his technical savvy cannot get the right equipment to video/photograph this jerk? I don't believe he cannot do it. I suspected another retirement was coming as soon as I heard the first news about a stalker. I thought here we go again - this will gradually build towards another retirement, and it did! Same MO.

I share your view. Let's see any Police Reports. I doubt they exist!

There better still be frequent GabCasts.

I just unsubbed. I wanted to believe that he wouldn't do this again, but it is clear that he's a flake of the highest order. What a shame.

Agreed and creates new questions about the death of Ramona followed by sudden new marriage.

And now....

Remember Ramona !

You should ask the doctor to check your meds. You are sick.

[Robert]

I can't think of any radio personality who has had half as much drama in their lives as Art has.

David Brudnoy nearly killed himself hiding his case of AIDS until he passed out on the air.  Then he improved, stayed on for many years, but eventually died a rapid death from something much rarer: Merkel cell carcinoma.  Actually he killed himself slightly sooner & less unpleasantly than the disease would have, after making sure the course he was teaching was taken care of.

He is certainly a very lucky guy. He has had an out of body experience (albeit very short) in Paris, seen a massive triangle over him and Ramona's head (so close he could have thrown a stone at it), had a precognitive experience with his car being hit, seen a shadow person and glued his lips together with superglue. I am not sayin' he's lyin' - I am just sayin'.

[Mild Bill]

Well...Merry fuckin' Christmas, Art Bell fans!

[Robert]

But wait! What if it is a ruse. A total gotcha and they catch the guy/gal/creep?

How could that possibly work?  Art stops his show, the creep stops threatening, so is never noticed again.

(Old man was a DA) Grew up with death threats, people shooting at our house, people cutting our power, throwing bricks at my kid brother, someone trying to assault my sister, escaped prisoner threatening to kill me, my wife, and child, etc. It sucks. You have to deal with it. But, a 70 year old man just needs peace. This wasn't going to go on for much longer anyway. I thank Art for coming back and giving us one last ride.

The only way I would believe this was a ruse was if it was April 1st.

Ohhh, dude you are really reaching now.

Why don't you just do us all a favor and listen very carefully to what I'm about to tell you. Fuck off.

I find myself agreeing with you on several matters. This is getting scary.

[George Noory]

If someone unknown was stalking your house and terrorizing you, wouldn't the best thing be to catch him and find out who it is and what it's about? Wouldn't the best thing be to continue to do the show and have your hidden security people with night-vision lay in wait for him?

Why would you assume the stalker is going to stop just because you quit your show or move?

Image if you will, a Ouija board encounter during which an aspiring youth is convinced to offer his soul in exchange for radio fame.
Fame is found, but unbearable guilt and anxiety cause the now-soulless celebrity to concoct a scheme to sabotage his career in hopes of breaking the pact.
After a time, ambition grows and the successful career is resumed.
Repeat.

All the questions could be answered with one call to the NYE County Sheriff's Office.

No offense to Heather, but is this a joke?
We want you Art.

Contractual obligation?  Foot in the door, pilot light on until he can set up shop in Manila?

I'm sorry but if you choose to move to Manila you must be insane.

I doubt it, if Keith's shutting down the Time Traveler archives.

Amen.
