OMG, HR Mgr is here overnight, they're about to fire the boss.
Questioning each of us, taking notes, very unpleasant.
On the other hand, I loves me some RCH. Can't wait.

[PB the Deplorable]

...why is the post show being hosted by an insane egomanic self-promoter con-man who can't talk about anything but himself a good thing?...

Perhaps Art doesn't realize the contempt that a lot of people have for RCH. I know its all about entertainment, but jesus, this gives me real pause.

Why does Richard need guests? He is just going to talk over them. Do you think he has been such a lying, snake-oil salesman for so long, he believes his own bull shit?

All these guests are liars and frauds. Richard, Morton, even Victor/Whitley. What a crappy circle of humans to be around. I hope we get more interviews with people like Willy Nelson or Kaku. Art does great interviews with people like that.

I can't decide which of these is the best post

$5/month to listen to that ass?  Probably shouldn't burn your bridges with Dave, Rick

[SciFiAuthor]

C2C was all ready to let Hoagland host on the night of the Pluto probe's closest approach â€" July 13/14.  Then the plans changed, the pieces got shifted around (by Dave) specifically to step on Art's July 20 debut.  A chess move to â€" I guess unwittingly â€" pitch Art's appeal against Richard's.


Well, Art and Richard invented a third option and checkmated the living Christ out of Dave by making RCH â€" and his own show, "The Other Side of Midnight," a Dark Matter Digital Network exclusive.


Make sense?

Gotta be pretty close.

Was he/she a good boss?

[WOTR]

Heard a rumor in chat about Knapp possibly getting a weekend spot on Dark Matter. That sounds muy intriguing.

Hey Zenman, did you ever watch MASH...  Remember when "Marilyn" was coming to the 4077th?

Incompetent, with a big, inappropriate mouth, but he left me alone.

Hmmm.  Probably safe to post here as nobody really knows who I am***Edited*** I really hope this is a sign from above...

[Jocko Johnson]

Thank you all for the support and help, this really is quite a ride even before the ride has started! As far as Dave is concerned I hope you all have noticed I have not been posting anything negative about him or for that matter anything at all but this latest stunt was simply too much.

Art

dave's not done yet, not by a long shot! So my friend, keep your head down and your powder dry!!!

That sounds excruciatingly awkward.

So, no...but you could have lived with it...

All that I can say is that at least you have an HR manager not afraid to do her job and that people did not have to resort to other methods...

Not good when the HR Mgr is there overnight. Good luck. Maybe they'll surprise you and you'll be the new boss.

In my opinion it was a plan that goes back to Dave more or less telling Richard to shut up. Why would a Producer call Richard and tell him he could be on with Dave on the 13th but not talk about the news breaking while he was on the air but instead hold the big news for the 20th. That make no sense on so very many levels.

[ge30542]

It is, and extremely "unsettling". All this drama reminds me of childhood with the alcoholic father.

skunk ape nailed it! OMG...pee my pants funny!

Take that Eddie Murphy brother!

I think that it was confirmed in chat this evening after somebody let it slip...

That would be the final nail in the c2c coffin.

Yup, play it close to the vest Art, the Skunk (Dave) is bound to be in the hen house time after time.

[PrairieGhost]

I'm all caught up and boy am I ready! RCH will get my $5 also. 

[Art Bell]

There is another SHOCK ahead.

[Bounder]

Couldn't agree more.  July 20 can't arrive soon enough!

[Keyser Söze]

This is high comedy. Who will be Coast's science adviser now, the numbers lady?

I think the numbers lady needs to lay off the numbers and start counting the calories, she's getting a little chunky lately.

[jazmunda]

Art have you considered doing a subscription bundle for your show, RCH's show and weekend host's show? Alternatively you could perhaps do a subscription bundle for DMDN with the lot? Or is this too confusing?

[Jocko Johnson]

There is another SHOCK ahead.

Art

Speak oh master of radio...may as well have that blood vessel just pop in daves head while he is on the air tonite!!!

[Keyser Söze]

lol, Art you're such a tease ... all these shockers are making my heart flutter.

I still can't believe that Noory talked to him that way. It was really low. Even if someone doesn't like RCH, you have to agree that he has given coast listeners countless hours of entertainment, which in turn helped coast. To turn around and say that crap to Hoagland, live on the air, really shows Noory's character, or lack thereof. Noory truly is an ungrateful little twit.

Hey Zenman, did you ever watch MASH...  Remember when "Marilyn" was coming to the 4077th?

I do. Good episode. One of my favorites.  heh

sorry GE...not good

[Zenman]

Art

hmm..

hint?

Is it bigger than a weekend time slot?

[WOTR]

There is another SHOCK ahead.

Art

Will you confirm or deny that it is related to these Knapp rumours?

[Bounder]

Dare I say it: I think the present is better than the 90's "heyday."  This is just unreal.
