Thank you so much for this resource. Listening to old AB show with Thunderstrikes regarding shadowpeople. You have no idea the happiness you have just imparted on me.

regards,
Andy

Was that on the 24/7 stream?

Thanks, valdez. I didn't catch the "hang". But yeah, no one says that.

From tonight, on countries combatting government-controlled weather manipulation:

"We've got to do it together, or we'll do it separately, as they say...".

Hmm, that link is interesting - sounds like it's about the same lady and story - maybe she called Art and Snoory... I don't know the date, but the date on the file I made is 06/20/2009, which means maybe the day before? Don't really know - I keep a few moronic clips around then remix them for comedic purposes so the date when I make them and when they actually happen could be off by a while. As it turns out, 06/19/2009 was a Friday open lines night, so I wouldn't be surprised if that was the date.

Wow, then she's been calling for years with that same story. Doesn't excuse Noory's terrible segueing skills though!

Here, the One-Neuron Nooron listens to a caller recounting the death of her sister.  Snoory answers her with the worst segue in radio history. Priceless. Listen to this historic event in the attachment below.

My gift to you:

When is this from? This is the lady who has called a few times recounting the same story. I remember Renaldo referenced this in the Ghost to Ghost thread.

seems like 90% of the time, people describe "shadow people" as being dressed in the fashion you mention here.  i'd like to know wtf is up with that.

That's what I wanna know. I've read people who theorize shadow people are interdimensional beings think that the hat and trenchcoat or cape are supposed to be disguises. I would think being a pitch black figure with no discernable features would be disguise enough. They're just so effing weird and I want to know exactly what they are.

This isn't my experience, but my sister's. I only just recently found out she was into the paranormal when she told me a few weeks ago about some odd occurrences around her apartment. I asked her if she's ever seen a shadow person and she responded with this:

A month ago I saw two shadow men that always tried to talk to me and hide from me. Like it was a game. They would try to convince me that the other was the bad one. It was kinda funny.... One hid behind my curtains and moved them. It always happens when I wake up in the middle of the night. The night when one hid behind the curtain, when I woke up the curtain was pushed back like someone did it on purpose. They tried to be mysterious and secretive but they always communicated in actual voices I could hear. They wore cloaks and hats like detectives from back in the day. They always babble and tell me the other one is bad, that's the recurring theme. They would point at one another and be enthusiastic. I was never scared, just mesmerized. I was only terrified when the one hid in the curtain. I was paralyzed.

I asked if she ever attempted to cast them out and she said she read the Bible once aloud in an effort to do so, but that was too eerie so she stopped.

I've been following this off and on, and this is the first I've heard of a child's foot showing up now. Very disturbing if it is another victim.  The RCMP has a big denial issue with serial killers, and there seem to be at least 2 operating in the BC area, assuming their not related.  The first one is the foot thing, the other is someone going after young, physically fit males; usually they disappear when they're out for a bike ride or run.   

Do you have any links for stories about the young men disappearances? I haven't heard anything about that.

  TACOMA, Wash. (AP) -- Police in Tacoma, Wash., are trying to gather more information about a human foot that washed ashore in the city's Tideflats area.
Police spokesman Mark Fulghum said Tuesday that the right foot was still inside a boy's size 6 "OzArk Trail" hiking boot and likely belonged to a juvenile or small adult. He says the boots were sold in Walmart stores from 2004 to 2005.
The foot found recently is believed to have floated in from either the Puyallup River or Puget Sound.
In late August, a right foot washed up on a beach on Whidbey Island, about 70 miles north of Tacoma. Island County sheriff's officers said that foot likely belonged to a woman or a child.
Island County sheriff's Detective Ed Wallace said then that the Royal Canadian Mounted Police were sharing information about seven feet that have washed up in the past four years on British Columbia shores.
Fulghum says Tacoma police don't know yet whether there might be any connection to the other cases.

I didn't see any posts already created for this topic. Does anyone have any thoughts about where the feet washing ashore British Columbia Canada and Washington state are coming from? I've heard it could be refugee ships sinking and feet disarticulating from the bodies. It's been 4 years and authorities still have no clue.

Im tried of reading the nonsense on this website. It needs to stop.

Step it up. We're all watching you!

Yeah. I liked this past season but I wish they would've tied up the loose ends about the Fuentes brothers (what happened to the other one, and why were they killing people?) and more about Trinity. Because for all the police know, he is still out there. Maybe next season at least Deb will piece together Dexter being Kyle Butler. We shall see! It is one of the best shows I've ever seen, though.

Quote from: haloedorchid on December 14, 2010, 10:33:20 PMHe may not drink or smoke pot, but I'm sure he has used prescription painkillers recreationally once or twice.

I don't know about recreationally, but he did admit to pain meds when he had his hair transplant procedure.

But I will say, that while I believe Ian to be truthful almost all the time, I don't believe him for a second when he blames the attached mp3 rant on his mind being confused after "just waking up." I think he might have had a nip or two before the wife came home from a social function. Listen and I think you'll agree.

See attached mp3 I edited from my archives:

Yes, this is the one that made me think he was on prescription painkillers. This was definitely not just tiredness talking -- but who knows, maybe it was from alcohol.

This Saturday on Coast to Coast AM with Ian Punnett:

Quote
Jason is a human who believes he is really a horse who is living in a human body. Born in 1966, he was the youngest of six children. In 1976, he and his parents moved to the mountains of northern Georgia. After his father died in 1985, Jason and his mother moved to Miami. After she died in 1997, he moved to Alaska. Jason has worked with a local shamanic practitioner who has relayed messages from the spirits of his equine people to him. He has contacted them directly as well, but he found it very difficult. They also contacted Jason unexpectedly on one occasion--they literally "broke in" on his thoughts. 

Has this idiot ever been on before?

Yes, and it was the dumbest show ever. I was hoping he would never make an appearance on the show again.

Quote from: MV
her quivery throat cancer voice also makes me nuts.

Lol, best discription of her voice ever.

Quote from: ringthaneBut yeah, what you pointed out with her is the main problem with Coast -- GEORGE DOESN'T HOST. He sits there and lets the guest blab blab blab ad nauseum. Why is he even there?

He has stated that he feels his job as host is to sit back and let the guest tell their story. Unfortunately the guests are on a TALK show and not in a LECTURE hall and George doesn't seem to get the difference. Guests need to be guided through a conversation and have pieces expounded upon and teased out -- sometimes going in completely different directions than the guest and host had even planned on. It's the art of conversation. The guests and topics deserve better than the patented questions George asks every single guest every show, like the ones you mentioned above.

I wish a guest would call him out on it because clearly the callers who would have been screened out long before they'd ever reach George's ears.

Well, thank God - at least I can now tell my parents at Christmas I'm not gay.





I think.   

No, I am not lying in my profile. That's more of the Craigslist Adult Section speed. So watch your back if you're ever around those parts! Merry Christmas!

Then where will Dexter dump his bodies?

Unless, of course, you lied in your profile, which now makes me gay - how will my parents take it?

What was that about? That actually sounds interesting

   Hoagland claims to have won the "prestigious" Angstrom medal. It is not clear that the people who gave it to him had the right to do so, and even if they did, they have later said that doing so was a mistake.

What the heck even is the Prestigious Angstrom Medal?  When I google it, the first page is all about Hoagland! lol

The above-referenced website went into more detail about this Angstrom Medal:

Quote
The Angstrom Medal 
When Hoagland is introduced on "Coast to Coast AM", he is frequently said to have received the Angstrom Medal, referred to as a scientific medal. This is technically true, but the people who gave it to him, as it turns out, didn't have the authority to give it out. Also, they gave it to him for an idea of his which is easy to show to be meaningless.
Anders-Jonas Angstrom was an 18th century Swedish scientist who was one of the first to use spectroscopy in astronomy. He discovered the presence of hydrogen in the Sun, for example. He was so important to the field that his name is used by optical astronomers as a unit of length (1 Angstrom = 1 x 10-10 meters). Some years after his death, friends and family of Angstrom donated money to Uppsala University in Sweden to establish a prize in his honor (this is a fairly common practice in science). The prize, given to young physicists at Uppsala University, consists of a small amount of money and a medal that is provided with permission from the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. The award committee is composed of scientists at Uppsala University.   So far, so good. However, there is another organization, called The Angstrom Foundation Aktiebolag (AFAB). This is a privately-owned foundation dedicated to preserving Angstrom's property and to use it to hold conferences and the like. This is a separate entity from Uppsala University. Remember, the University is the only place officially allowed to award the Angstrom Prize. So guess who gave Hoagland the medal? Not Uppsala University, but the AFAB. According to amateur historian Alan Archer, who has done a bit of research on this issue, Hoagland's receipt of this medal was not official. In fact, the AFAB didn't even have permission from the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences to give it out! Archer spells it out quite clearly: "The Angstrom Foundation AB's use of the Angstrom memorial medal of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences as a component of the 1993 Angstrom Medal award to Richard C. Hoagland was an unauthorized use of the academy's medal."   Anders Marelius, head of the department of physics at Uppsala University, had this to say, as quoted by Peter Linde: "The Angstrom foundation is a private foundation without connections to Uppsala or any other university. The department of Physics in Uppsala, where two professors Angstrom have been active, has no links with the activities of Richard Hoagland. The department considers the Hoagland project as speculative and unscientific and rejects it entirely." So it would seem that Hoagland has stretched the truth once again.   To be fair, there is some confusion over this. According to a press kit released by Hoagland,

In other words, it's complete bullshit and an attempt of deception by using a valid award's name by proxy.

Quote from: C110 on December 14, 2010, 06:10:41 PMYour thoughts......and no iI am not retarded.  Just curious.  Thanks.

Your post prompted me to start a Wikipedia odyssey from mummies to bog bodies. Very interesting stuff.

I would definitely listen to an Otzi-themed show. Preferably with Ian or George Knapp at the helm.

Quote from: onan on December 14, 2010, 09:39:37 AMI do not remember Hoagland's credentials.

I decided to look this up, because I remember a couple years ago I looked into this myself and came up with virtually nothing. This website http://www.badastronomy.com/bad/misc/hoagland/credentials.html sums up his credentials with this:

   Hoagland claims he was the first to think of the idea that there might be an ocean under Europa's surface, and that life might exist in that ocean. This claim is demonstrably false.
Hoagland claims he came up with the idea of the Pioneer plaque, he presented it to Sagan (along with Eric Burgess), and that without him it would never have happened. These claims are hearsay, as he has no evidence of it, just his word. But there is the word of at least three other people (Sagan, Drake, and Burgess himself) who say Hoagland's input on this was minimal at best.
Hoagland claims to have won the "prestigious" Angstrom medal. It is not clear that the people who gave it to him had the right to do so, and even if they did, they have later said that doing so was a mistake.

He may not drink or smoke pot, but I'm sure he has used prescription painkillers recreationally once or twice.

I love how hyperdefensive Ian gets when he is slighted, even if it's just perceived. Yesterday a man called in saying how Ian has improved a lot this year and Ian launched into this tirade and said something like "oh did I SUCK before?!" and the man calmly explained that no, he was good before, it's just he has gotten even better.

His retorts to people who actually do criticize him are so much better than George "You, my friend, need to learn some manners" Noory.

That's simultaneously awesome and creepy.

I know! I want it to be true, but it seems like all of these alleged sightings of cryptids or paranormal things in general turn out to be hoaxes.

Has anyone heard of this thing? A man Louisiana supposedly snapped this picture whilst hunting for deer. People think it's a hoax (which it probaby is) but it still looks very freaky nonetheless!

Here's a link to the Daily Mail article about it:

Did anyone else catch that Art had the same caller with the same story on both the 10/29 GIS show and G2G on 10/31?  It was the lady who called in with the story about how she loaned her sister her car, she got killed in an accident, and then one day her sister's ghost told her to play the album on her record player and it turned out to be some Neil Young song about dead sisters from car accidents that make the other sister listen to records and call Art Bell twice*

Art didn't catch on the second time until it was too late then kind of gave her the bum's rush off the show.

*Okay, maybe just about a dead person somehow.

I heard the first time she called, but not the one on Halloween. That's kinda odd of her.

Lol. I remember listening to that one on a podcast a year or so ago. "You need to get yourself some manners, my friend." Nice retort!

Quote from: Stevenqbosell on December 07, 2010, 12:52:51 AM
That call sounds awesome! Do you happen to have a year for the broadcast, or rough estimate?

It had to have been either 2005 or 2006. And it may have been a Ghost to Ghost show. I am really interested in re-hearing this call again now, too. It's always stuck with me.

One of the best open line call I've heard was a from a few years back during a ghost-themed show. A woman called in and described a situation in which she and her daughter were vacationing somewhere along the Eastern seaboard and they decided to take a walk on the beach. They were walking in the water when they noticed something rolling in and out with the waves. She assumed it was a log or some other beach debris, but as they got closer she realized it was the dead body of a young man. She immediately called the police and took her daughter back to their rented beach house.

I don't remember all the details, but at some point she said she was on the porch of the beach house and the deceased man appeared to her. She said he was incredibly frightened and didn't know what to do. She said he was panicked, and mentioned a prank gone wrong with a friend, but he could not accept the fact that he was dead.

That show gave me chills, and I could not sleep with the radio on after that. Now I fall asleep listening to Coast to Coast.
