Art Bell Quits Dark Matter

[HumanBeing]

Paul,

wanna call MV on shoutcast right now? It's airing as we type: 573-837-4948 People would probably love to hear from you

Holy shit dude.. really?  :

[Producer-Paul]

Is a web stream going to happen Paul? Can it?

I'm not aware of any plans at this time but anything is possible.
(I'm wishing I had factual answers for you folks.  But I don't at the moment.)

[BillW50]

So he moves closer to fukishima?

well thought out Art

Have you thought Art thought anything out well? I'm thinking he is now at the age when everything is down hill. Well it has been that way for over 10 years now for Art, hasn't it?

I'm impulsive so I can sympathize with the myriad goose chases and split decisions it can fill your life with. But I don't know. I'm laughing out loud considering that here's this famous radio guy in Nevada doing a paranormal/conspiracy show and he decides to quit the show and flee the states because his guests convince him America is doomed to be a radio-active, bankrupt police state in a matter of months. That's funny. And he flees to Manila with his wife to live out the rest of his days being fed grapes, drinking coconut wine and hunting the occasional panda bear with a bamboo blow gun while we all sit to rot in penury, tyranny and unfortunate mutations.

HAH. I got a good laugh out of this. It may not be anything to do with the coming happening, but the haste at which it was ended made me think he was in fear of something. Either that or because an internet commenter said the show sucked. One or the other.

Holy shit dude.. really?  :

What? What do you want from me, Human? Paul's here all alone...well, he's got you for company...so, point made.

[Falkie2013]

Dude Paul, the lack of communication is just mind blowing. Can't you just call art or go and see him and find out what his mindset is?

Here we see Bellgab listeners plotting their next move after the devastating news.

Thanks, Wrath!

[BillW50]

Art's doing this reminds me of ...

OMG! How many times has Art done this again? When it hit like 12 I lost count.

[McPhallus]

Now THERE is a "TRUE fan."

Holy shit dude.. really?  :

[Falkie2013]

Maybe Sirius would agree to one night a week of free streaming, or at least the open-lines nights.

But Not all shows are truly caller-driven. If open lines were all we cared about, we'd be satisfied with C2C.

I know Art set high standards for himself, but IMHO he played it too safe, going with Kaku and Hoagland. He needed to come out guns blazing, don't look back, move forward, throw it deep on first down and not run it up the middle.

We want our minds blown. New listeners want their minds blown, that's how we all got hooked.

No offense, but it didn't feel like to me that much effort was put into the search for guests. I know this is probably not true, but that's what it feels like.

I honestly don't know why and how that Indian financial guy was even allowed on the air. That was God-awful.

I was waiting for the on the edge programs he used to do when people got cut off the air, guys flew over Area 51 in planes and called up saying they were in danger of imminent death.
It never happened and never was gonna happen.
I have a gut feeling that Art was warned at one time to knock off going over the edge on radio by someone and that's why this time he played it safe.
A lot of the guests and the calls just didn't cut it and while there were moments, it wasn't enough to keep me rivited like in the days of old.

" You're loved by everyone which means you'll be gone in 3 months ! "

ROFL !!! ROFL !!! ROFL !!!

What's the phone number again ? He said it too fast for me to catch it all.

This.

[Dude111]

People, Art is now trapped in a non-compete clause again. There won't be anything else.

The only thing he can do is go back to XM if this clause is still valid right??

Thanks wrath. Worked for me

He can change oil at jiffy lube

[Producer-Paul]

Hi Producer Paul,

Sorry your gig was so short lived, loved the show.  Sorry you've been saddled with having to spin all the nonsense excuses into some coherent narrative about SiriusXM not being a good fit for Art, lol.

I hope you appreciate the anger of fans, could you speak to it?

Also, what do you make of Art's pathological exit strategies?  Clearly, they're not entirely profit driven.  So what then?

Thanks for the sympathy but I'll survive.
It is what it is. And I'm not dead so it's all good.

As for being saddled with having to sit here and chat on this board,
no one asked me to do this.  I had hoped that I had something to add.
Maybe I don't really as I don't seem to have any real solid answers for you guys and gals.

I guess I'll close for the night
To a better day tomorrow.

Good night everybody.

-Paul

Thank you very much Paul. Much appreciated.

Hehe. Oh, Scully! Come back! Do another show!

Paul, thank you for posting here. No one has more skin in the game on this than you, and you didn't have to come here at all. Like many people here, I am extremely frustrated and upset with Art, but definitely not with you. Good luck in whatever you end up doing in the future.

Art's behaviour seems impetuous Paul. I imagine your thinking wtf too. Crazy.

[gbneely]

So when someone buys SiriusXM streaming, are they told it's broken or working poorly most the time?
I'd love to see a class action lawsuit here. A lot of folks, not just Art fans are being misled and ripped off.

I never experienced any issue with the streaming.

Hey, you know, a man's got to do what a man got's to do when Spooky Matter doesn't cut the mustard.

Thanks for the honesty and showing up on this site.  Sounds like you're as much a victim in all of this as the rest of us.

[whiptrackercracker]

Yeah.....this will be interesting...

[Indigo Yeti]

Wow. I still do not like Noory as a broadcaster, but I have to say I respect him for this.
