Whitley on the Coast tribute show now reporting that he was at Art's funeral today and it was very small. He said Bob Crane was there. He said Airyn spoke.

It's like if I said I won't talk to a counselor unless they have followed the Grateful Dead tour, injected heroic doses of Ketamine, engaged in marathon hokey pokey tournaments, and can recite the Jabberwocky from memory. Which I won't.

Whitley says that Dannion spoke. He said the Pahrump flags were half-staff, he thinks for Art. I guess he didn't hear about Barbara Bush.

How dare you mention their names in that same sentence, sir. I expect you'll flog yourself now? >:(

She should contact a certain person in Woodland Hills, CA. She could get counseling, find out about her past lives, and get that cavity fixed up.

And he didn't mention Heather, was she not there?

She was there, but only she is permitted to announce it.

He didn't mention her one way or the other.

Heather won’t talk to a counselor yet she’ll keep interacting with strangers on social media?  I hope someone will show up on her doorstep, cut her internet connection, and have some real human interaction.  I am getting a bit uncomfortable watching this meltdown.  I feel like Hobbes in my avatar.

It's like mentioning people who were there were breathing air.  Insignificant.

The Borg would ignore her too, assimilation is futile.

I think I said it a few days ago.  She really needs to log off and pick up a phone.

Yes, she was loosing subscribers.  I love Art- but I don't think that he always would have given the best advice, and this may be her once chance to actually do something.

People who started with MITD did so because of Art.  Trying to be Art, trying to do an "Art" show, trying to copy a legend did not work.  Look for something new and make the show MITD with Heather... Or continue down this path.

I don't think that Art "teasing" he was going to host helped.  I don't think that her completely cutting ties with a site that could have been a source of support was smart.  Art understood (very well) the radio landscape of decades ago- not so much internet shows and podcasts of today.  She can look at what was likely a modest number of subscribers that a radio legend had after Bellgab (and others) provided two months of a blitz and hype.  I'm positive that it was not what you would expect a "radio legend" to have pulled in- but FAR more modest.  So you can't be shocked when as a new face you are struggling.

This crap about not visiting a councilor, not having a guest host, not making a change and "poor me... Art died" is already old.  Fuck... Time to reach out to Bateman, reach out to MV, hell- reach out to Jazmunda or Aldous, reach out to somebody else to help for awhile (even as a cohost in case you get "overly emotional") and get going again.

Even reaching out to Noory and providing an interview as one of the last people who was around Art and who can claim to know him.  MITD might not make a dime- but I'm sure that it would get people interested in her while she could relax from the hosting of a "tribute show."

Death hurts- but it also provides a new beginning.

This is what happens when you cling too hard to your dreams, and allow yourself to get carried away.

The rest of my post is redacted and withdrawn.  I'm just reading the "MITD with Heather" thread.  I think it's a little late to think that this could be contained or reigned in.  Wow.

I've come the conclusion that Art encouraged and recommended both Noory and Heathwr as replacements, simply because he had no idea why he was successful.

Before you assume I'm being critical about Art Bell, let me explain. Art was such a wild success because of how great he was at radio, what he created resonated with so many people. But I think it was almost accidental. He didn't fully recognize or understand his own magic.

His financial success was a byproduct of him making an incredible night time talk show. But it was just him "getting away with" having fun on air, and being paid to do it.

This is why Noory and Heather are so terrible, and why all of his advice to Heather never helped. Because Art didn't understand that you can't just walk into a room, switch on all your equipment and the entire world would listen and call you. It always worked for him. But no one else IS him.

Anyway, I want to be a rocket scientist. I've been practicing and I really think I'm getting better at it. Things only explode or catch on fire every few days now.

If I’m being honest, Im doing sorta the same.. only my dog died this morning, not Art Bell. And I’m  zoning out by inserting myself in others drama, instead of wallowing in my own.

We also learned that MV is bi-curious or did you already know that?
Well we did know that Onan and MV would rather be on the "receiving" end of the "Deliverance" rape scene than throw himself onto a cactus.  As evidenced on the February 3rd, 2014 edition of "The Gabcast".

MV makes some very interesting sounds in reaction to the "cactus incident".  Aldous, you were on the phone for this one.  "There's jumping on a cactus, then there's having a cactus jump into you."  You were asked by Onan if you were making a Peyote reference, to which you replied "No comment."

How did Heather even get on Art's radar to become his replacement host?

So that will be every show under the sun doing an Art tribute except the one that Art started.
