Art just said on facebook that the problem is fixed and he's back in biz. Kinked cable in a box outside.

I've been under a manhole this whole time.

I bet you were.

According to the previously posted link to the news article, the fiber optic cable was apparently fixed around 9:30pm last night in that area of nevada that caused the area's internet outage?

The article linked above was from 2014. Talk about Time Traveling.

This seems to explain the problem with Art's internet going down tonight.

When someone suggested that perhaps a vermit gnawed the wires Art said the following:

awwwww, that spoils all the fun of a good, old-fashioned nefarious plot.

The plot thickens.

The fibre optics were physically cut between Art and the ISP... not much you can do about that.


(Ihate Radio has connections in the construction industry, maybe? 50 bucks under the table to a backhoe operator, perhaps? ...hmmmmmmm

I don't think it was anything as nefarious as that. Here is what Art said:

The first few shows did have some issues, if he had 100-150 shows in the can as backup it would be better..
Its a shame Art doesn't own his old shows, at least he has control over these.

Give it time. In a few months he will have the back catalogue. I'd give my right nut to access to the full C2CAM Art Bell archive.

Quote from: Barfly on September 24, 2015, 02:24:41 AM
I though he had all these backups, i guess that was put to the test..fail..OR he just called in sick

He has power backups but if the internet in and out of the studio goes down 20 minutes before the show then there is not much he can do in such a short time. Remember he is not in a studio with an engineering staff. I can't imagine he would want to go outside with a flashlight and troubleshoot minutes before airtime.

Quote from: Barfly on September 24, 2015, 02:22:50 AM
45 shows is a small catalog to rely on, lets be real, some shows sucked

I was referencing the fact that he has had 45 shows without a tech hiccup. One night of tech issues doesn't make his show a failure. If it was a regular occurrence then it is an issue.

Quote from: Sandra Kristen on September 24, 2015, 02:18:40 AM
Art doesn't have a wireless router? Doesn't C Crane make a good repeater or something?

I don't think you can rely on a wireless router. For a regular broadcast you'd want it hard wired. Having said that as a backup a wireless router would have probably worked tonight.

Quote from: Barfly on September 24, 2015, 02:16:55 AM
I think it was his internet, RCH is live.
With these issues i dont think the radio stations are going to like the issues Art is having, some may second think picking up the show, just a thought

The timing was not great considering the current push. It's only a problem if it's a regular issue. Art has not had a major issue since the Test Show. He now has 45 shows under his belt on MITD.

Quote from: RoseGirl on September 24, 2015, 02:14:50 AM
some sort of power failure for Art tonight, eh?

but RCH is live, right?

Art forgot to pay his internet bill. 

RCH is LIVE!!!!

On FB Art said that internet was coming into his house but not to his studio so the failure is in the cable into his guest house/studio.

Great minds, Jaz, great minds

Quote from: Barfly on September 24, 2015, 02:13:16 AM
I'm thinking if he ever did do it maybe he would become normal 

In that case we don't want him to take Ayahuasca. 

Dolphins!!! SciFi Author shout out!

Quote from: Barfly on September 24, 2015, 02:07:11 AM
I would pay good money to hear RCH do a live broadcast while doing Ayahuasca

You mean he hasn't been on it the entire run of the show? 

Who you calling Pale Face?

The video of RCH getting busted for using the accutron at Chitchen Itza is the best video on the internet.

Did the guest just call himself a See You Next Tuesday?

Quote from: Breezy on September 23, 2015, 10:30:28 PM
Why do callers greet Art with "Roswells to you"?

When Art returned with Dark Matter it was used as a way for callers to say "Great to have you back. We missed You" etc without wasting time on the air with such greetings. Apparently Rush Limbaugh used "Dittos" in a similar way.

Who cut the cheese?

Quote from: Sandra Kristen on September 24, 2015, 01:20:31 AM
Well maybe Art should pay his internet bill so he can have a show!

It would be hilarious if that was the reason he couldn't get on air.
