George Knapp

[Nucky Nolan]

George Knapp is coast to coast right now as far as I'm concerned.  If there was any justice in the world he'd be the full time host.

Just think if he became the main host of Coast and followed "Dark Matter" each night. That would almost be like gilding the lily.

[HorrorReporter]

Boy wouldn't that be something if Knapp announced tonight that its his last show.. Wouldn't that be something..?

[Eddie Coyle]

Boy wouldn't that be something if Knapp announced tonight that its his last show.. Wouldn't that be something..?

      Same wavelength. I'm listening with the hope he does abandon ship. Then I can finally be free of any urge to listen to C2C.

[SaucyRossy]

George's intro is great.

[Ravenna]

Anyone else going to listen to the Knappster tonight?  2nd half sounds good.  (Not the first half, to me:  I am so sick about hearing about the NSA and how they're going to violate our privacy, frankly).

Tonight's show:

Tech & NSA/ Cryptozoological Mysteries
Sun 09-15
First Half: Specialist in cyber warfare and technology, Charles R. Smith, joins George Knapp to talk about how NSA revelations have affected the entire tech industry.

2nd Half: Zoologist, media consultant, and science writer, Dr Karl Shuker, discusses bizarre, anomalous creatures of every conceivable (and inconceivable!) kind-- a veritable menagerie of cryptozoological mysteries to dazzle and delight, tantalize and terrify.

With all the excitement about Art's return, I almost forgot about Knapp.  You're right, Ravenna, the 2nd half sounds interesting, forget the first.  I sure wish Knapp would escape the grasp of PremRat and join in with Art. 

[malfion]

I agree. I'm just going to watch stuff on youtube or listen to music until the second half. It's annoying having to hear about the NSA and stuff you'd hear on a Wells show on Sunday when you'd expect some good old Knapp action with a fresh topic.

[Scully]

Boy, am I on the same page with the rest of you guys.  I was looking forward to Knapp's show tonight, because until the last minute the cryptozoology topic was all that was listed.

I wonder what influence made the Knapster throw in the NSA regurgitation at the last minute.  That, he can keep.   

[Nucky Nolan]

Tonight, Knapp shows that he can balance current events and cryptozoology. He handles both subjects very well. That's the mark of a competent, versatile journalist. All of his shows are trips to What Might Have Been.

[FightTheFuture]

I find Charles Smith far more interesting than the typical Wells' guest on the same subject. Wells likes a show thickly laden with conspiratorial theory, regardless of how implausible. Knapp prefers a  ''meat-and-potatoe, just-the-facts-ma'am format

[UFQuack]

Oh yeah God forbid anyone find out about our eroding and dwindling rights, gotta turn a blind eye to those "fear tactics".

[malfion]

Oh yeah God forbid anyone find out about out eroding and dwindling rights, gotta turn a blind eye to those "fear tactics".

That was posted before the guest started speaking and he ended up being good enough to listen to.

[Ravenna]

The 2nd half guest who will discuss cryptozoology is up next!  I hope I can stay awake for this, ... I'm pretty tired.

[zeebo]

mmm ... blobster

[FightTheFuture]

Another interesting show by GK tonight.

I only wish we could have heard more bigfoot calls. I always enjoy those.

[Scully]

Oh yeah God forbid anyone find out about our eroding and dwindling rights, gotta turn a blind eye to those "fear tactics".

As Noory once said to me in one of his infamous emails, "You just don't get it."

I hope I never do.

Yes agreed, was a pleasure to listen to his show last night.  He's articulate, thoughtful, and well-prepared - qualities in short supply on other nights.

Also, his comical reference to Sharknado made me a fan for life.

[Sardondi]

AS far as I am aware George has kept his head down about the imminent appearance of "Dark Matters" tonight. Any official word form George on whether his professional life holds any changes in the offing?

[SaucyRossy]

Btw everyone, George Knapp is doing an AmA over at above top secret.

Some one should ask if he will be on with Art.

[Morgus]

I see on this Sunday night's c2c with George Knapp he has as his guest Bill Birnes, UFO Hunter.
Good for him, since Noory and Bill apparently had a fight and so he probably won't go on with Noory anymore...

[qaddisin]

Didn't Bill help Noory write his soon to be released cookbook?

I could not agree with you more on the NSA shows...It's enough already! I am certainly going to listen to the second half though since I love Knapp and cryptozoology is in my top 3 favorite topics. Now, did I miss something? Is Knapp supposed to be making some sort of announcement tonight?

2nd Half: Zoologist, media consultant, and science writer, Dr Karl Shuker, discusses bizarre, anomalous creatures of every conceivable (and inconceivable!) kind-- a veritable menagerie of cryptozoological mysteries to dazzle and delight, tantalize and terrify.

Shamans & Voodoo/ UFOs
Sun 09-22

Joining George Knapp in the first half, Dr. John Alexander, will discuss his recent trip to Mongolia where he was in search of the truth about shamans and voodoo. Then, author Bill Birnes will talk about his role as a 'UFO Hunter' and what it's like to investigate the compelling-- and sometimes chilling evidence of UFO phenomena.

Tonight show with George Knapp. I really hope he moves over to Dark Matter soon. He could be the weekend host and or the guest host when Art takes a vacation for example.

[SR-71]

I hope George Knapp joins Team Art Bell and USS Dark Matter. George Knapp will be a good first officer for Capt Art Bell.

[basswood]

Hey, that's Wells talk!

I'd like that too but it seems unlikely. Knapp has already mentioned some guests he is having on c2C at the end of next month so he's not going anywhere for now

[SR-71]

Hey, that's Wells talk!

Im so sorry.

[Morgus]

Good to see Bill Birnes (UFO Hunters) back tonight as a guest with George Knapp.
I heard Bill had a falling out with Noory, so he hasn't been on c2c for quite sometime.

[Nebraska888]

LOVE KNAPP ON SUNDAYS!  HE IS JUST GREAT!!!!   Can't wait!

Yes, I heard that Bill B. and Noory had a "falling out".  It seems obvious since Bill is NEVER invited as a guest.

[Morgus]

Interestingly, Bill Birnes appears frequently as a UFO expert on the syndicated TV show "Unsealed Alien Files" that just started its second season this weekend.
Coincidentally host John B. Wells is the voice announcer/narrator on that TV show and he plugged it last night on c2cam.
