Did Art Bell ever do a show about Numbers Stations?

I always thought, or suspected, that Art did, but I went searching today and found nothing.

If so, does anyone have the show date so I can at least try to source it?

Thanks!

i dont think he ever had a dedicated show just on number stations

He's mentioned them a lot but never for an entire show.

Would be rough to stretch it out into an entire show.  Both Art & George have done segments on them. 

Here is an interesting BBC segment:

Yet.  When he comes back he might.

Interesting piece from Radio 4 indeed.

Being a Shortwave enthusiast while growing up, I would come upon these number stations.  Most would be spoken in Spanish.  However, one time I recorded what I thought was a Russian number station.  It turn out the language spoken was in Serbo/Croatian.

Definitely relics from the Cold War era.

All this spy nostalgia is making yearn to see "Bridge Of Spies".

Clyde Lewis did a great show on number stations about a year ago. Ground Zero radio

Clyde Lewis is a good host.

I never found one and assumed he must have, it was just one of the lost shows. I have always find it to be a fascinating and somewhat creepy subject. Amazing to think that with all his interest in radio, Art never did a show on it

There was a movie about number stations a few years back. If memory serves, it was pretty good. John Kusack(sp) starred. Ive heard number stations in English, (with and without accents) Spanish, Russian, and I believe Korean. Ive got a few recordings around somewhere.
