Quote from: Lamont Cranston on October 11, 2015, 11:45:18 AMGeorge Knapp ought to bolt from C2CAM and do a weekend show on the MITD network.

After 10 minutes of last night's (10/10/15) show with Richard Syrett....it was Change the Channel time.

Tonight's 1st segment is awful, but not Syrett's fault. There's only so much you can do w a guest who "goes into trance" & tells fortunes from there.

Date:    Sunday - October 18, 2015
Host:    George Knapp
Guests:    James Spione, John Kiriakou, Thomas Drake

Telling the truth becomes a dangerous act when federal whistleblowers reveal the darkest corners of America's war on terror. Joining George Knapp, Academy Award nominated director James Spione will discuss his film Silenced that deals with Washington's increasingly draconian response to whistleblowers, and the devastating personal toll on those who've questioned official national security policy. Two of the three whistleblowers highlighted in the film, John Kiriakou and Thomas Drake, will also join the program to share their experiences and how their lives have been affected.

Knapp does it again. I wasn't really into this topic, but after his great intro now my interest is piqued. So different than Noorie's lazy "Ok next up we have a writer who wrote a book on stuff."

Yeah big bad government stuff is usually a big yawn for me but I can just see Knapp phoning in his story from a foggy phone booth, possibly under surveillance.

Good show last night about a topic mostly ignored by the MSM...and the public. Took some gumption for GK to do it with the Fascist Lite C2C audience, as evidence by the livid retired military caller to whom violation of chain of command seemed a firing squad offense. He would have made a good Waffen SS man.

Another solid show by Knapp this weekend, really the most consistently quality show on C2C squad.

This is usually George Knapp's night to broadcast, and I see who the replacement is. I wonder why this has transpired? I know it will be a no Coaster for me in that case.

Also, it is very, very sad I used to listen to Coast on the weekends. I will not discuss the week in this post. However, since they have this stable of revolving hosts it has caused me more times than not to just not even tune-in. Bad programming choices are being made. I am a Dave Schrader fan and Richard Syrett is alright, but the others, not so much. In my casa it is dead air on the other nights as far as Coast is concerned.

Knapp-less on Sun. nite. Not cool, Universe. I got my jammies, I got my cuppa joe, I already brought the damn cat in. And you're givin' me that other guy?

Hope all is well Mr. Knapp and you return promptly to your reserved time slot.

JImmy Church hosting tonight? I took extra care to check into a hotel with WIFI near Lassen Volcano National Park just so I could hear Knapp. I turn it on and there is Jimmy fucking Church blathering away. What a letdown. Is Knapp ok?

And you're in prime Mt. Shasta weirdness region too! Let us know if you see any curious activity in your current environs. As for Knapp, I hope all is well.

Jimmy Church said he was filling in for George Knapp tonight.
Unfortunately Jimmy is pushing Noory's stupid paranormal date venture tonight which Knapp NEVER does!

Well, I drove by Mt. Shasta last night but couldn't stick around due to a malfunction of the passenger window. Somehow a bolt was lost but I jetted down to Redding today and had it fixed at a Toyota dealership. The only weird thing I saw was a bunch of New Age crystal shops in downtown Mt. Shasta City. I wanted to check out the backcountry on the slopes of the volcano but I had to get to Redding as the wind was blowing furiously and the temp was in the 40's. I couldn't take it with an open window. Today it was near 80 in Redding. I had my shorts on and drove up Lassen and it was 43 degrees near the summit as the sun was setting. With the wind gusting it was probably in the teens or twenties using wind chill. Froze my ass off.Going back tomorrow with more appropriate attire. I'm approximately 25 miles from the peak as I type.

Has anyone ever emailed Knapp to ask if he has refused to do the paranormal date spots, and if so, why?

Sure, those are possiblities but I also wonder if there is something in his contract(s) with C2C and/or the TV station about what spots he can do.
