• RIP Art Bell

    From Chicken Head to All on Friday, April 20, 2018 17:02:39
    Wow so quite an era has come to an end. The "X-Files" of AM radio has died.

    And not a peep here?

    I loved Art. He was so..analog. I miss the way he used to instruct people how to record his show using VHS tapes.

    I loved how he suspended disbelief and let people have their say.

    When my kids were born and I was getting up at all hours of the morning, I
    used one of those little Sony headphone radios and listened to Art while my kids fell asleep in the rocking chair. I used to be able to get KFI in LA,
    a station in Seattle, and a Portland affiliate from the San Francisco Bay
    area.



    ... What if I told you you can't hurt the newcomers?

    Wait, was that real? Is Art Bell dead? I listened to him every night of
    the late 90s.

    I listen to probably too much talk radio. I've listened to that idiot Alex Jones...I've heard Bill Cooper before his death/murder. I listen to Jeff Rense whenever I can.

    But Art really had the game down. I used to "tune" him in using Real Audio back in 1997. Art's show was like the audio version of the X-Files. He just let people present their stuff without bias.

    I can't stand his replacement, Noory. Even Noory's "eulogy" for Art Bell was phoney as a $3.00 bill.

    Nice.

    I'll have to look it up. Seems like there was no love lost there, which is a shame since Art gave Noory a serious break when he let him take over C2CAM.

    $3 bills aren't phoney, I have several of them. With Bill Clinton's
