No it's just as bad, it's just that he's actually a relief compared to Heather. Who knew? The amateur Heatherisms plus voice affectations got much older much quicker.

I didn't listen live, but recorded it like with every MITD thus far, and I'm struggling to get through the severe vocal fry, upward inflection, and usually low energy that Heather has, coupled with the technical issues that continue. She's awkward on air, quite stilted, and the dull guest didn't help matters at all. Some of her comments suggest that she is grasping at anything to open the show, because she's unwilling to talk about herself, like the republican debate mention only to quickly admit that she doesn't follow politics (something we already knew after the test show when she was stumped by the Bush question) along with the San Francisco baseball bat story that should be left to the awful news segments. Her responses to Paxson are Noory-esque with the incessant huhs and wows, and ohs to keep the conversation going whenever there is a brief pause. There are enough mhms being thrown around while the guest is in the middle of answering a question to rival Richard C. Hoagland. I had to stop about ten minutes into the second hour, after the embarrassing John Lear reference that Paxson knew nothing about, and likely won't listen again until a booking is of interest. It frees up some time for another podcast, at least.

Thank you for some grounded observations, not emotionally driven blind defense of her.  You are absolutely right on all counts.  I don't get the excuse making and defiant ignoring of the obvious about her from people who are here in the first place from being so disgusted with the hopeless affectations and habitualness that Noory's 'mind' won't ever see and fix.

Even without prior on air experience, the annoying habits you listed are things anyone with real AWARENESS and talent gets on day one from having picked up on them and has the intelligence to catch themselves on the fly - it's not like all newbies arrive doing all these stupid things.  Therefore she's not going to 'quick' learn and erase these habits because it's the way her mind works, she still totally oblivious to a very long list of bad habits, and it's a very long process to self-analyze and reprogram deeply ingrained thinking/speaking habits.

The truth is also that there's a reason no mainstream successful talk show interviewer has ever had this much of an annoying backwoods drawl. 

It was a very, very bad mistake to put such a flawed amateur without even a mainstream potential/listenable radio voice in the still glaring spotlight of a star as the hope of saving network that so much work has gone into.  I don't get it.

To slightly change subject.... but was there an agenda all along?? I smelled a rat day one when Art thrust such an inept unknown into the spotlight out of the blue as his peer.  I'm not convinced there wasn't an unspoken agenda right off the bat that just got delayed because of the intense WTF backlash.

I think even the aliens couldn't take it anymore and killed the signal.

It is just very sad.  Something lost on the Internet generation is that just because you can talk and ask questions doesn't mean anyone wants to listen to you.  Gone are the days when the professionals sound professional.   This is like listening to a college radio program, and not a particularly good one.  I thought people were too hard on her the first time around, but she's had time to improve.  Or not.  I'm hoping Art will come back on -- and is reading these posts -- but suspect this will be the last time I tune in if this is the show.

You're right, I was a major market radio announcer when people were held to very high standards and plenty were waiting to take your place if you didn't keep it up.   Today having to endure the sudden flood of amateurs to hear interviews with interesting people is a big let down.  I'd bet Heather is a very nice person, but she's not even at college level and I don't think gets what the things to work on are.  And even if she did, you don't practice a couple months and reprogram all your mind's sentence construction habits and tone.

".....anuthrrrrr question..."   with singsongyness.  The guest could hardly understand a few questions.

Did she get this gig for bonking Art?

Agree.

And Amy Martin could be her sister for annoying vocal affectations.

Even if she's educated on alternative subject matter, Heather has zero radio prescence, zero interviewing technique and too much of a grating, backwoods warbly, amateur odd voice with too many wierdnesses for potential.

"Just rowwwwwlin on the ground..."

My 6 pennies about the best listener and intelligent questioner in talk show radio:

1.  I was both instantly worried and shocked Day One with something that seemed very auspicious.  Practically the first words I heard were "Alan Greenspan' as Art's first advertiser - implying being 'supported' by one of America's worst NWO crooks and morons who's extreme corruption and Federal Reserve manipulation for years did untold damage to everyone not rich in America - the least representative advertiser for a show supposedly dedicated to openmindedness and truth.

2.  Art's audience didn't stop listening to a vast array of cutting edge people the last 10 years and got a LOT more educated and sophisticated... and Art sounded like he picked up where he left off.  Maybe half his guests so far were intriguing and at or near the current cutting edge, and the other half were boring as hell and snoory caliber stupid ghost, esp, ufo or mainstream propagandist story purveyors. After lots of initial enthusiasm I stopped even remembering to see who was going to be on or that it was 9pm.  There are hordes of more interesting guests and intriguing topics, but at least Sean David Morten didn't come back and many other lowlifes.

3.  I think it was a big mistake to have such tightly locked doors out of the box and not make replays available for free for some amount of time until awareness/interest/momentum spread around the world thru youtube.

4.  I have nothing against good female announcers, but the extremely grating nail on chalkboard amateur female announcer voices over and over and over could not have helped night after night.  I found myself running to quick kill the sound when the news, commercial tags or full commercials with any of the them came on.  There's a huge difference between unusual radio voices chosen for memorable character... and drawl-y, torturous monotone that could make roaches commit suicide.

5.  Back to the NWO. Again picking up where he left off 10 years later....Art made various asides indicating that he still steadfastly bought the govt. 9-11 story, was still pretending to buy face value mainstream stories and/or just avoided guests who dealt with these current issues that contained so many of the 'alternative' tentacles of black ops now common to alternative radio.  Again, it's all stuff his audience is now much more educated about and it makes him look either like a player to be so intelligent and therefore pretending to be in denial or oddly suddenly stupid.

6.  All adding up to... I suspect the show/network was a lot of work, was losing money and the prospect of going to profitability too bleak looking.  I think he's concocted this threat and excuse for quitting to save face.  If so, too bad it's likely going to hurt him even more to have added unnecessary disgrace.   I agree with all the people here who have pointed out many other valid observations and ignored solutions if the 'threat' was really the issue that I think were well said.

Thank you in advance for the usual adolescent and/or intelligent Bellgab slamming of me to come but I respect and appreciate the true free speech here more.

Best to all of you on the precipice of what seems to be such a quickly changing new world and on finding other nice rides.

It's ALL a scripted story.  You can't KNOW what the facts are.

I'm just joining and haven't read what else has been said, but please tell me there are people here not falling for this new false flag.... AND get what a sell-out player Art is too.  He's not stupid, he's acting, saying all the right fear mongering, war starting, terrorist blaming memes. 

IS ANYONE AWAKE HERE??

Why aren't you supporting Art by being a Time Traveler yourself?

His refusal to acknowledge the serious 9-11 questions or have guests on who expose false flags.

I can't... somebody message Bell quick to tell him HU is from Eckankar... a ScIENTOLOGY OFFSHOOT.

Yes there is a BIG limit... and the related.... 9-11.

Who is this smug guy that keeps interrupting the main guest, doesn't say on Art's site. I wish he'd shut up.

Is there any way to set the category page to refresh itself when a new post comes in or is everybody constantly doing it themselves?
Thanks.

That would be hell of an interview about The Great Hackening....

LOL

To have this whole conversation like the US is the good guys with no mention whatsoever of the complicity of the criminal American Military Industrial Complex as the  creator of huge amounts of the world's problems, totally unethical war practices including biological warfare, the continuous stream of lies they spew to cover their ass thru the controlled media, the unbelievable amounts of war started and innocents murdered for corporate gain, the past and ongoing CIA drug running, the history of false flags, the funding of both sides of supposed conflicts for undisclosed agendas, the fact that the President is purely a figurehead and never really makes any decisions..... I could go on.   

This whole interview is pure BS/propaganda, this guy sounds purely like a robotic monotone player and it makes me remember Art's act of having blinders to this aspect of military/politics.  I don't like it, he's much too smart to be this blind.  Here we go again.

The old bellgabbere's wanteth no change. God forbiddeth for it were to be a woman. The arrogant ones of days of yore believeth a 70 year old broadcasting icon should rolleth over for them liketh a trained orangutang and do their bidding. They hateth George Noory, but want Art to run his show just like George Noory.

Nooooooo.... we want any change to be change for the BETTER not the worse, and 'redacted' adds absolutely nothing and is just another lame Robin Givens.  A total pointless lightweight in comparison to the host.  I totally disagree with any admiration of the 'sound' of her voice' - not that it should have any weight.  It's slaggy, cooing and clearly gives the message 'ooh ooh ooh... I love hearing myself on the radio'.

PLEASE NO LAME SIDEKICK.

Another lurker summoned by MVs email. It was only a matter of time. There's big money to be made here. I count 6 or 7 feeds most nights playing Art Bell re-runs. He's still very popular. The investors smell profit. He's coming back. 


Thanks for the update Michael.

Me too.  I wasn't even lurking.  There's only so many times you can complain about a talk show host whose only question to guests is asking what they think of angels. 

I will be eternally curious though if snoory is really as bland and empty headed as he comes off or was hired to play stupid to dumb down C2C.  Every once in a while something very uncharacteristically knowledgeable slips out he never expounds on that seems to indicate he's holding back bigtime... as well as being a total airhead.

Thanks for the notice.  GREAT NEWS.... but I hope formerly much too frequent guest and super-disinfo player Sean David Morton isn't going to be a repeat part of the package again. 

Let's also keep in mind that Art would NOT discuss 911, and any side comments were "...and when Bin Laden blah blah..." totally refusing to challenge the official story or have any guests who did.  The BIG question is WHY?  I don't think it was just advertiser alienation.

Re: Hoagland squawking about Nasa

The thing that really drops my trust in Hoagland is that he pretended for a whole show with great histrionics to be frustrated about Nasa's announcement to halt space station and moon visit plans.......... BUT totally ignored the facts he knows full well - that Nasa's space program is and will always be in full swing out of the public eye, that they're hiding long established bases on the Moon and Mars and maybe all the planets already and technology is mind-bogglingly way more advanced than they're showing.

THAT's the topic, not Nasa's diversionary announcement for whatever reason.
