Re: Art Calls it Quits... Again
Probably just me, but Art's guests didn't seem up to "snuff". Had not really listened for awhile because of that.

Re: Art Calls it Quits... Again
Art also sounded a bit cranky at times, no patience with callers and venue they used for calling in.
The old saying "you can't go home again" alive and well I think.
Now new tease about how he might be popping in once in a while -I think the routine and committment was a drag.

So Art didn't use the "R"-word! Well, that's a relief isn't it? His original statement was received absolutely the wrong way. Strange how that happened -- I mean, it couldn't have been clearer he was only leaving the air!
That Phil Hendrie bit from 2000 I posted earlier, albeit a parody, ably picks up on Art's now-legendary penchant for making epically emphatic pronouncements - Insofar this one sticks, along with 1 semi-, we're up to retirement #7...

Looks like Ed Dames came back for "The Kill Shot"Cherry Kelly wrote:I am hoping that the police, the new cameras being set up will catch the perpetrator that is causing this situation. It is one thing when someone is shooting not just one time, but other times as well and shooting at Art's home. But it has continued to where the wife and daughter are afraid.
The question is why? The next question is who - is it just one or are there more?

Even Ed Lame could have seen this future.
Re: Art Calls it Quits... Again
Riddick,
Ridiculous isn't it. "Won't be on tonite or any other night, yes I am going to hang it up".
No wonder Art remarried so quickly. Ramona must have gone crazy trying to keep the lid on every and any impulse which came along from one day to the next.
I haven't cancelled my subscription, just yet.

Re: Art Calls it Quits... Again
I've not yet thrown in the towel mostly 'cause I don't wanna lose the locked-in 5 buck per month sub, just in case this stalker/shooter situation gets resolved in a satisfactory and timely manner. That may be asking for a lot, but then again, stranger things have happened, and probably will. After all, this IS Art Bell we're talkin' about KWIM??

A Simple Test
Hey now Dude, to prove it's all a hill of beans would you agree to a simple test: Art announces he'll be doing the show some night, but only if it can be arranged to have you escort him from his house to his studio and back?Dude111 wrote:Art is a loser..... CANT BE HONEST WITH ANYONE SO HE HAS TO PLAY THESE STUPID GAMES!!!!!!!!!!
NONE OF ITS REAL......... He is just trying to get out of this show INNOCENTLY because he is a 2yo child who cant just face the public and bow out the right way......
What's the worst that could happen? Yes, the next AM the two of you could be in adjoining drawers in the Nye County morgue... The GOOD news is you'd be spared from losing face for having been wrong! It's a no brainer.

Art Bell halts radio show after string of alleged events at residence
By Mick Akers
Pahrump Valley Times
Well-known and sometimes contentious radio host Art Bell abruptly announced he would no longer host his popular show last week after a series of alleged events occurring at his home have left him and his family fearing for their safety.
Pahrump resident Bell called the incidents, which apparently involved the use of a firearm, "never-ending terrorism" in a Facebook post shortly after the latest incident that took place last week. With all the alleged incidents, Bell has found it tough to sleep through the night, with the worry of additional occurrences taking place. So until someone is caught or something comes to light in the investigation, Bell is putting his radio show on hold.
"At least a hiatus until we can catch this guy or whatever," Bell said. "It's probably related to my radio show and I don't want my family in danger… I think it's related to my radio program, but I can't be sure of that."
According to a pair of release by the Nye county Sheriff's Office, they have been unable to verify any of these claims and currently consider the investigation closed.
According to Bell, it all started on Oct. 21 when a neighbor down the street from Bell's residence reported hearing several shots and a vehicle driving away, but did not see anything in the area. The reporting person said that when they went to the area they found a fresh beer, police said.
When sheriff's deputies responded to the area they were unable to locate anything regarding this event, according to their report. The next day on Oct. 22, Bell called the sheriff's office because he was on the air and a neighbor advised him about the shots being fired. Bell stated he did not see or hear anything and was simply advised by the neighbor.
"I was on the air at 10:30 at night on the 21st and somebody came by with a high-powered rifle and got in front of my studio and fired several shots," he said. "It was seen and recorded by a neighbor of mine. I was actually on air and had the headphones going full blast in my ear, so I didn't even hear it."
About a month later on Nov.19, Bell's producer called police to report that Art had received a call from a blocked number saying that if he went on the air that night he and his family would be dead, according to the sheriff's office. Deputies spoke with Bell and he said that he had received the threatening phone call and did not want to report it but he did want it documented.
A few days later on Nov. 24, Bell contacted the Nye County Sheriff's Office to request extra patrols during the nighttime hours after he reported that a male was on his property the night before and was kneeling down by his window. Sheriff's deputies have carried out extra patrols in the area of Bell's home and have not been able to locate anyone in the area.
"On 11/23 there was somebody outside of my studio that ran away as soon as I opened the back door," Bell said. "I've got a motion sensor light and it tripped while they were out there. I went to the back door, opened it and saw them taking off."
Bell explained that his property borders land owned by the Bureau of Land Management, so that creates problems as far as people having access to his land.
The latest incident occurred on Dec. 9 when dispatch received a 911 call from Bell's wife, stating that Bell was walking outside on his property when he had called her from his cell phone to tell her someone had shot at him and then he stopped responding.
Deputies responded and upon checking the area, Bell was found lying on the ground of his property with no injuries. He told responding deputies that he was not sure if the noise he heard was a firework or gunshot, according to the sheriff's report.
Deputies did an extensive check of the area and didn't locate anyone and also did not discover any evidence of gunshots.
"They didn't find any brass, but it was somebody out on BLM land, so I don't know how they would find it," Bell said. "I'm convinced it was a .22. I heard a pop sound and somebody yell, 'You were,' and I couldn't hear the rest because I hit the dirt and called my wife, who called the sheriff.
"I was in the dirt for 20 minutes in the dark. You know, if somebody is going to take a shot at you, you duck."
The sheriff's office maintained extra patrols in the area for the rest of the week and did not discover anything. At this point, the investigation is closed unless further information is discovered, according to the police report.
Although there are no suspects in the alleged incidents, Bell said he has an idea who it might be, but did not disclose the person. He did give an idea as to why someone might target him for such attacks.
"There are people who get annoyed because I do shows, for example I had the leader of the devil worshipers on, I have people talk about ghosts, I have people talk about all kinds of things," Bell said. "It's hard to know what offends someone, but when you talk to enough people, you're going to always offend somebody.
"Apparently this time I found a real crazy person."

Check It out! Now Playing at kabc.com! "Final Countdown"
On hiatus from his show after increasingly disturbing incidents, IS 30 days too much, or too little, too late? Will Art find a way to return to the mic in time, and in a form and fashion to keep the online subscriber and OTA affiliate base from imploding? And what ABOUT Naomi?
The clock is ticking and the world is watching as the final fate of not only Midnight In the Desert, but also the Dark Matter Digital Network hang in the balance.

Re: Art Calls it Quits... Again
Milwaukee MSM Mention: I heard at the top of his WISN late afternoon show today, radio talker Mark Belling calling Art a "lunatic" after briefly noting his retiring, before going "on to more serious topics". Dunno if he's aware of the details or just couldn't care less.
