Not that they ever did, no: seaborne pirate radio broadcasting was genuine risk-your-life stuff.  Very unlike today's podcasting.

(Sorry Amy.)

I'll have to have a poke round and see what I can find.  I half-expect the online Caroline of 2018 to be hiding behind the proverbial 7 proxies, but I'm sure after all the notoriety they earned long ago, they ended up attracting enough attention so that money is no longer a (big) problem.
Well if you have the time and know where to look I think, and it may be each state is different. But I think all wills especially contested or not have to be filed at the county or state probare court. These docs could be public record. Maybe she isn't worth $0, maybe Art left her some change to support herself and either continue the show or ride off into the sunset to just chill out? Can someone find that info? It would answer a lot of questions.

For clarification, I asked what that meant, Keith respectfully responded this way........

Dave

I don't know why Schrader would comment on this drama. Just do the show and try to increase subscribers and possibly pick up some affiliates.  Getting bogged down on nonsense doesn't help the show at all.

there will likely be about 4,000 listening to Heather tonight.

Can the LNM servers even handle that much traffic ...

Right. For as much as her supporters would like to argue that everyone loved her and that Art chose her, etc.. they were not privy to all of the information. Not just even the decrease in terms of listeners and subscribers, but also with regard to affiliates. Many (if not all) were there because of Art. They knew his name meant something. Over time, without Art at the helm, I’d imagine running an ad on MTID probably wasn’t worth the money.
You would think this would put an end to all of this but it won't. I suspect Heather will do her show with the same name and Keith will sue her as was just mentioned. But I could be wrong.
What Dave just posted for me confirms everything I saw and read myself.

One comforting thing about Dave working with Keith is that it seems like they already have a good rapport with each other. It gives the impression that even if a disagreement occurs, they're both willing to work it out in a professional way. I did not get that impression when Keith worked with Heather. (Or Art, really.)

A "tell all" Gabcast hosted by MV with Karen guesting would be even better.  ;)

I admit, I am wishing for that to happen.  :-[

I really enjoyed Karen’s stories about Art and her interview with Michael.

Since KYNE is the flagship station for the real MitD, it would be really interesting for the Good Dave to also interview Karen on his show to share some of her Art stories. Not the Heather drama stuff, but more as an hour long tribute as he did with his wrestler friend last week.

Actually that would be a great idea.

The real vultures reveal themselves. Leave Airyn out of this, Paulley.
Correct how the fuck do these two know how Airyn feels? Hopefully they aren't pestering her with their nutiness during this most difficult time for her and her very young children.

He rarely does, but now it’s his show and I think he’d like people to know whatever they “need” to know, and then move on. He came into drama, so you can’t really expect him not to comment. It sounds like he’ll keep it to a minimum. Frankly, Heather could take a lesson from Dave.

Let her go down her own path, and let Dave go down his own. Would be nice, Im sure, if he didn’t have this shit laying some of the foundation.

It is a pandora's box situation. Once you start commenting, the genie gets out of the bottle and it is hard to stop.

It's nothing to be ashamed about, Brig! Drama like this must be milked and nurtured in the Bellgab tradition.  :)

She might do better with a donate button and/or a patreon account. Although I don’t know what she could offer patreon supporters as bonus content.
G.S., really?   ;D

Agreed LadyFish, this was a really good interview. Well done and many thanks Michael :)

I second your suggestion for the Good Dave to do a segment with Karen.

Thank You for understanding

Dave has been extremely classy through this whole transition. I've gained quite a bit of respect for him throughout.

You are such a wet fucking blanket. Shows thrive on stuff like this, just look at Stern.

I am actually really interested if Dave and Keith will get someone like that dude they had in Alaska who quit when Heather took over the show because he didn't believe in her.

I think not having a experienced person who worked trying to get advertisers and marketing the show to affiliates really hurt the show.

Sharon looks like she needs a healthy food budget.
Where they're from, all you have to do is drive really fast at night and you'll have yourself a good ol' meal.  Likely in the "stew" family.

I think he did the right thing to make a professional "comment for the record".
I don't think Good Dave will take it any further than that.

I don't get the impression that "being professional" is hard for Good Dave, and I don't think he will get "swept away" with the need to comment on the drama.

I get that Bellgab users myself included enjoy the drama. But the casual listener will have no clue about most of this stuff. I'd assume Dave is trying to grow the show beyond the thousand or so people. Dave also has his own base who followed him over from Darkness radio. They don't want to hear about this drama.

I like Schrader, I have listened to him for years. I want him to do what is best for MITD and mucking it up with Heather drama, is a bad move. I am just saying that. I really want the show to get picked up by other affiliates, so we can have a decent call in show and great open lines. 

Dave can make that happen. I also think MITD can be real competition for some other show. That drama would be much more fun than some small podcaster drama.

I agree. He hasn't yet.

I guess you would have to follow Twitter, but then I don't think Dave has been posting about it on there. I'm pretty sure that vast majority of listeners are isolated from the drama. They just tune in to DMDN and now hear Dave...as Brig says, "I could be wrong.". Ha

And now Good Dave brings a band of loyal followers from his podcasts. He has 74k twitter followers. Heather had 4300.
You're on hot streak, everything I feel compelled to add on to is your stuff!

Watch it now, Heather will spend her hard begged money to buy Twitter followers now. Sheesh! Quit giving her ideas!

He posted on BG, he didn't spend ten minutes of his show talking about it to casual listeners, whoever they may be. This isn't 1950 and people expect to be kept informed about this stuff and not treated like idiots. DS is just treating us with respect and letting us know what's going on.

BTW I know you are super busy with a real life and the forum but I would love gabbing now's take on the current events. I always enjoyed your videos.

Yes, he seemed rational and professional.
