The Other Side of Midnight - Richard C. Hoagland - Live Chat Thread

[zeebo]

Was there ever any douubt?

There's some element of doubt but it's intentionally placed there as part of the "creeping disclosure" paradigm.

[AppealPlay]

I think Hoagie is afraid of taking calls...or maybe no one has called.  Either way it's unfortunate.

[Royal_Tenenbaum]

Do they not get that it is the foot print of a cosmonaut on all these pictures?

[K_Dubb]

Yay Keith scored a point!

On nights when I want him to take a call I usually start calling the phone in the last 20 minutes to remind him. I think he forgets what time it is frequently. We have to be his producer.

Yes but he's symbolically trampling his mission underfoot because of NASA's perfidy.  But no, I therapize...

[GeorgieForPresident2216]

Just confirmed, Alan Bean is telling us there's a sole catcher on the moon.

He's saying aboot alot too.  I didn't think we really said that.

He's a doddering old man.  He should keep a sheet of paper with break times and a reminder to take phone calls.

Lol. "Art" is the perfect thing for this show. They can always fall back on the "art is subjective" argument as a defense. This has been a fun show though.

You do but it's adorable when Canadians say things funny.  "What's dis all aboot, eh? Moose on the Moon? Oh, the Prime Minister is gonna hear of dis, eh!"

[Royal_Tenenbaum]

The hope is they are just gonna surprise us one night with a 3rd hour by not even addressing they are doing it. They will just keep on talking.

[Royal_Tenenbaum]

I have to get my looney fix with Michael Vara and Late Night in the Midlands tonight...sigh. BRAAPS all!

Oh he speaks perfect Queen's English.  The Canadian Queen that is.  It's still Queen Elizabeth II, but she speaks differently when she comes here.  Besides, he was just talking about footwear.

[ShayP]

braaps all!

I gotta say, this has been the most entertaining RCH show thus far.  I really enjoyed it tonight, guys.  Braaaps to you all!

I dunno, Astroguy's call the other night still is on the top of my list of awesome shows.

[K_Dubb]

First time I've made it to the end song.  Thanks, guys!

[zeebo]

That was some far out speculation.  Again I'm oddly impressed with Hoagie's ability to connect barely-there fuzzy dots into some kind of secret picture.  Braaps until next time all.

[Auslandia]

Holy fucking shit RCH's show on the "debate" was probably the best I've heard.  I'm pleasantly surprised.  Good work dude.  I didn't even sweat the phone ringing.  I'm just so baffled sometimes how he can talk about glass moon domes and U.S. Politics equally thoughtfully. 

[norland2424]

Damn it seems i missed a good show again

[maureen]

Playing the pareidolia game, has anyone noticed the lion that sits on the ridge above the crab? 

[bwillard01]

Probably later in the week.  We can't rush it. I need to coordinate this.  I'll send off an email this weekend.  We shall see.  Since you are local, maybe you can make sure there is a pizza joint that can deliver.  Hoagie may not want any part of it.

Count me as enthusiastically in on pizza and/or Miller High Life, fantastic idea!

[Soylentblue]

I think Hoagie is afraid of taking calls...or maybe no one has called.  Either way it's unfortunate.

I think that it is probably the latter.

I bet that if I spent an afternoon outdoors with Hoagland he no doubt would see signs of ancient civilizations in the clouds. He's like Whitley Streiber, you can only cry wolf so many times before people stop listening.

I don't think The Hoagland is in ABQ actually. He now lives in Deming, having recently undergone a move from Placitas which he said "did not go well." I could be wrong -- maybe he goes to a studio in ABQ to do the show.

This is how I imagine Hoagland's studio:

Wow! How does that hair survive the unceasing wind of Deming?

With a hat, tied neatly beneath the chin.

Is that where Richard got the idea?
