For a penny. Cheap bastard.

A penny saved is a penny earned....

Art loved his Penny's.

I don’t see why they couldn’t make it happen. Huge PITA *maybe* in terms of marketing, etc.. I don’t really know. But Im starting to wonder what Dave thinks of all this? Would he perhaps welcome a bit of distance from Art?

Dave had (has?) his own show in Darkness Radio.  He was hired to do MITD.  What y'all are suggesting what with changing the name and everything else is basically that Dave go back to doing exactly what he was doing before except on Keith's network and after scooping up the MITD crowd.

I am by no means saying Dave shouldn't have the listeners and interest, he's good and warrants the attention in my opinion.

It seems comical though that if this thread is steering him back towards what he was already doing on his own three weeks ago.

Singer from lesser-known band joins established other band.  Fans like new singer, suggest he starts doing things more like his previous band.  Suggest a change in format of the music.  Suggest they change the name to that of the band singer left.  Established band is forgotten as lesser-known band rises up bolstered by disappearing established band's audience.

It's already gone a long way to being millennial-friendly. It has a comparatively very fast past.  The guests are rapid-fire.  It's three hours instead of Art's original five year format from C2C's heyday.  Two or three scratch-the-surface conversations before ejecting and moving on to the next.  It suits the micro attention spans of today.  They get a taste and if they are interested more in the guest or product they can do additional research immediately on line.  Nobody but truckers, lonely graveyard shift workers and me wants to hear slow-paced long form five hour interviews anymore.

With the short attention span though even if you get everything right to capture their interest it won't be for very long.  There's just too many options and endless new material thanks to the internet and the ease at which any person can create and publish content.  I think the days of shows like Art Bell's C2CAM with millions upon millions of live listeners are pretty much over.

Alas, you are correct in your observation. Today's world is focused on the "quickening" of everything and have no ability to focus on the substance of anything. :(

Well prying the title away from Ecker would be tough, but Dark Matter (singular) might fly if Sirius doesn't own it.

"Prying" away a title of another person's show that they thought of and created is a rotten thing to do.  It was a rotten thing for Art to have done and it would be rotten for anyone else to do.

a.) Yes.

Well the baggage from the MITD carousel is starting to burgeon no?

I think this is just one of Heather's cat lady followers tuning in and announcing that Heather wasn't on the air at that moment.

It was certainly newsworthy. LOL

Yes, possibly. A lot of people were confused. If the person is a Heather fan then you'd think they'd know she is back on the 28th.

Here's the thing - radio is already a dying medium ftmp, why let MITD trail off too?

http://thefuturebuzz.com/2013/07/16/am-fm-radio-is-already-over-and-no-one-will-miss-it/

So if digital "sounds" old, it gets the same cold shoulder Foolsbook is seeing from millennials now - a dating and sharing service for seniors.

Dave has already done a good job freshening the bumpers, he might take a listen to Mysterious Universe and their electronica theme, or he might use his own instincts.

The Crystal Gayle tune is a classic, but it's also a moldy old now that appeals primarily to aging boomers.

Uh, pardon me?
I like Dave. I like what he is doing.
What I take umbrage with is your self appointed conclusions that you pull out of your ass.
Allow me to elucidate:
STFU

If anyone from bellgab calls into the show, definitely refer to it as such on air.

Michelle booked the guests for Heather. Heather booked guests for Art until she took over the show.

I'm a cat lover. I hope that's okay? We are all pretty crazy, but I do still shower on a daily basis,  don't pee in jars to use later for some bizarre home remedies, or have a hoarding situation in full bloom.  Oh, I also don't wear a robe.. not unless I can't find a clean towel, and I'm desperate.  :-\


;D
I'm not ashamed.

This sounds like a great profile for Jorch's paranormaldate.com. ;)  There would be some disappointment that you don't pee in jars, though.

Was it the showering or the not storing urine?  ;)

Is your hair blue, pink, or purple?

I’m a brunette, usually. With reddish highlights. I took the blue out before I started working with hospice patients.  ;D
