Was I Hallucinating Last Night?

I would swear I heard Ian say something about Art being on vacation. I thought he retired for good. Tell me it's true. Please, please.

I didn't hear the whole show, why would he say Art is on vacation, Art is not exactly gone for good, he will be doing 15 shows a year, Art is never gone for good.

I believe Art is going on a vacation???
An Alaskan cruise he said. There has been no change in his retirement plan beyond the limited shows he has already mentioned.

One can be retired and go on vacation.

I just listened to the show. I think he was joking with the listener who was asking about the status of "Coast to Coast Live" and awaiting Ian's return to that show. It might have been a veiled reference to Art's previous retirements.
