How many of you listen to this late night talk show? I've been listening to it for years and find every show facinating.
If you have never listened to this show I highly recomend that you do. It talks about almost everything you can imagine. Everything from Ghosts, UFO's, terrorism, religion, secret societys and more are disscused on this program.
It will be on your local AM station and starts at 12 AM and goes until 4 AM.

I have listened to the show either while driving or working late.  It is always good for a laugh or two.  Since George Noory took over, there seems to be more guests that try to refute 'pop' theories, but that could just be my perception.

Some really dumb things I have heard on there over the years:

One dude claimed he had evidence that Earth's destruction is eminent since he had evidence of a very large asteroid coming STRAIGHT at us...it's position in the night sky did not change.  He concluded that since the stars move across the sky and this thing did not, it HAD to be moving toward the earth.  The problem with his theory was that the earch itself is moving, and in an orbital pattern.  Therefore, something  moving toward us would most definitely NOT appear stationary in the night sky.

I suspect he was seeing something like a street lamp outside his bedroom window.

Another one was the kid who got arrested breaking into a utility warehouse trying to steal transformers.  He said he needed it for his time machine that he built, and the little ones at Radio Shack were too small.  He was hilarious, confusing basic concepts of capacitance, resistance, voltage and current while trying to sound 'so smart.'

It is a fun show, and certainly not everyone on there is full of crap.

My favorite was Art's panic over Y2K, and his attempt to backpeddle after nothing happened.

It's kinda funny about Art Bell (and now maybe Noory, too).  He had such a reputation about being a nut on the UFO thing ... but you know, I looked at his web site once just to see what it was like.

I got the impression, and it spilled over to future times I listened to the show, that he was merely providing a forum for the theories and beliefs...that PERHAPS he was not fully on board with all of it.  I don't know, my opinion of him softened a little over time, since I started to hear (maybe wanted to hear??) at least some skepticism in his voice.

Although, I have heard him say that he firmly believes that aliens are living among us and this has been known for decades....

They don't air it around me, but the few times I've heard it on the net it's been entertaining.  The call screener, must love their job or hate it.  Something else worth checking out is a british mag called "fortean times" which is more or less the same thing.  it's pretty hard to find too,  I have to special order mine via the comic shop.

I used to listen to this show constantly when working from 5PM-5AM a few years ago.  Fantastic stuff.  

Listened to it recently and it's just not the same without Art Bell.

Where did he go anyway?

Art was having too many problems with his back, so finally retired for good.

I think he retired at least twice back when I used to listen.

That's the "official line."  But we all know the aliens sent Elvis to pressure him to retire, as he was getting to close to the truth.

The guest on two nights ago (a ghost expert or some such) emphasized that Elvis has, in fact, left the area.

I love this show.  My schedule doesn't allow me to hear it very often, but every chance I get ......I just indulge.

The website is kind of fun too.

If you go to my website/profile I list all the newer Art Bell type programs on the internet. I use to listen to all his shows. Now I listen to Jeff Rense, Mysteries of the Mind, and Alex Jones Prison Planet. Always intriguing.
