She recycles worse than Leo though, I am certain I heard the same story in the first and second news break last night.

Leo also wasn't too concerned with accuracy. There was something that happened near to where I am back in February involving a frozen lake that he reported on in August as happening "last week".

She probably just had the weekend to throw something together. I'll put up with Trevor Noah's new-guy jitters, I guess this is okay too for 5 minutes a night.

Yeah, it's not like it's going to kill the audience to listen for a few minutes.. And people do improve over time.

I can only really listen on Mon., Thurs., & Fri. and I've heard Leo recycle almost everything after the first six weeks (hence Aug. being last week). Don't know if it's because of a lack of weird news that one could put a light-hearted spin on or laziness.

How about just Hoagland do the news, let him ramble on about something, then just cut him off as the show resumes.

I read his book, Ghost in the Wires, about his pre-penitentiary adventures. A lot of it was fascinating, but he also punctuates recollections with "...and then I had intercourse with a female :smuggo:" type remarks. A lot of his high-school-need-shoved-into-lockers victim fantasies shine through.

the dude on whatever show is on right now is talking about how he knows people who have been to mars and i think he's saying michelle obama is actually a robot? i can't follow a word of this, it's purestrain fuckin crazy. i love it.

edit here's the description of his new book from amazon

quote:

A tour through the new science of the Omniverse, its spiritual and physical dimensions, and its incalculable intelligent civilizations

• Reveals the key travel and communication technologies of the Omniverse: time travel, teleportation, and telepathy

• Unveils newly disclosed state secrets about these technologies, about the findings of the NASA Mars rover missions, and about a secret colony and life on Mars

• Explains through science how souls are holographic fragments of God and how they help create planets, solar systems, galaxies, and universes in the multiverse

We are all citizens of the Omniverse, the overarching matrix of energy, spirit, and intelligence that encompasses all that exists: all universes within the multiverse as well as the spiritual dimensions centered on the divine Source that many call God.

In this scientific guide to the Omniverse, Alfred Lambremont Webre reveals startling replicable evidence about extraterrestrial and extra-universal life, the intelligent civilizations created by souls in the afterlife, top-secret alien technology, and the existence of a secret base as well as life on Mars. The author explains how our souls are holographic fragments of God/Source and how souls and Source are co-creating planets and galaxies as virtual realities for soul development. He addresses Grey alien control over soul reincarnation and also sheds light on the presence of invisible hyperdimensional controllers known as the Archons, who feed off negative energy.

Revealing the key technologies of the Omniverse, the author explains how hyperdimensional civilizations communicate telepathically, teleport interdimensionally, and travel through time. He unveils newly disclosed state secrets about government possession of these technologies, the findings of the NASA Mars rover missions, and the secret Mars colony whose permanent security personnel is age-reversed and shot back through time to their specific space-time origin points--with their memories blocked.

Integrating science and spirituality, this map of the dimensions of the Omniverse sounds the call for scientific inquiry into the holographic origins of the soul, the potential of time travel, and our role as divine co-creators with Source.

I'm actually not sure about the kind of guns Art has.

But yeah, Art said there were a bunch of shots fired near his house, and he stepped away from the show twice to check on things.

No home should be without one.
Update from Art on Facebook:

"Ok, the Police just left for the second time and the Girls are asleep so here is what I can tell you, about 10:33 PT I got a text from my close Neighbor saying he had heard 4 or five fast shots that seemed near my Studio, he thought they were from the street behind the house but did not see anything, then a moment later another Neighbor Lady texted me that she heard the shots and saw a car in the dead end lane in front of my Studio fire 4 or 5 rifle shots at or near the house and take off in a mid size car. We will check for bullet holes in the daylight. The girls turned off all lights and hugged the floor. We are all ok but a bit freaked out. We have video camera's but not recorded, that will change. Sorry for the scare but it was worse on this end.

I wouldn't worry, Art. It's clearly someone who is channeling their anger at anybody in their path.

Edit: oddly enough, this prompted me to look for some quality desktop speakers, given how Art is always on about quality audio.

I find the good audio quality jarring, so I listen on the tiny mono speaker on my smartphone.

That doesn't even go far enough for a co-worker, he downloads podcasts then runs them through a filter in Audition to make it sound like AM radio.

Art Bell is best experienced low-fi, it really adds something to the whole experience to have the show crackling though a crappy speaker.

If you want to listen to the creepiest sounding way possible, shortwave is the way to go.

If you don't have your own shortwave receiver, you can tune in via a web-controlled receiver here or here
You should be able to tune into the show at 5,085 khz, and depending on reception you can use the AM or AM-nrw band filter.

You'll get all of the weird fading in and out atmospheric interference and background noise you could ever want. Absolutely essential for the Halloween show.

It's also fun to just mess around with those radios and see what other weird stuff you can find.

I listened to him on shortwave a few weeks ago and it was great. And then I stayed up for another hour or two randomly tuning around and listening to crazy religious broadcasts from who knows where. Shortwave is awesome.
