The Shed&Shield. Sounds like a nice place to get a few pints.

Glad to see the cat section is still there.  :D

Dear lord...that has to be the worst branding ever..."pirate"...admitting you stole or illegally copied something...a brand that would only appeal to past listeners, with nothing to appeal to a new audience (as they would not be able to make the connection with the MITD fiasco)...it's a cliched image/brand, used for liquor, tattoos, maritime activities, etc...but a late night paranormal talk show? Zero connection

Once again HW...

Indeed she did. Yet it’s making for great entertainment.

I wonder if Heather lives by the philosophy that any attention is better than no attention?

I looked online to see how the "pirate" thing has anything to do with the word Nye or the place itself. Isn't the desert landlocked? Is it just "we're swashbucklers!"?? They just swashbuckled, didn't they?

Heather's obsession with this whole concept of legacy and clinging to anything Art as a co-branding exercise is so odd.  She's a footnote in Art's legacy.  Every paranormal broadcaster since the 90's is Art's legacy.  Even the great Art Bell was a continuing legacy of precursors like In Search Of.

So, was that threat reported to Facebook???  By multiple people?

I checked, in order to report these threats to FB, you have to log in from an andriod or ios FB app, go to your home page, click on your profile picture (right click?) , and choose "inside" profile, and put in your password. Then you log out and re-log in to your FB page and a "send feedback on this post" option appears on the 3-dot menu on the right of posts. Since for many reasons I don't and won't log in to FB on any device other than the one place I am logged in, that eliminates that possibility for me.

I am concerned, though, that since last night they are openly sayiing how to find Keith's address on the internet, saying to mail him horse shit, saying to go and topple his palm trees, etc. in addition to other inciting and harrassing exhortations. I think if he wanted to, he could copy and document all of this from FB and go after all of them for harrassment and threats, intimidation, etc. especially as he has initiated legal action against HW/MITD2.

I am doing an online conference and am way behind in pages, so I don't know if anyone has commented on this already, but tonight HW said it's time for wicked, and intimated she'd get the Satanist/black magic guy on the show and/or to help her. Her cult followers are suggesting she use black magic against Keith, again not a wise move on an open forum (not to mention karmically really bad news).

More later if I have time to come back here tonight.

This Satanist goof.  I think Art had him on or something, or maybe she did when she first took over.



Ooooh, scary!!!

With the big watermark across the front, I'm sure it is copyright... But that is what makes it so appropriate.  8)

I prefer the term hornswaggler to swashbucklers.  I think Heater has more in common with hornswagglers than swashbucklers, if you catch my drift.

It's all yours.

El Chorro

She's completely "pirating" the brand of Karen's station...the K in KNYE is even designated as the first letter of "Kingdom" in her branding (see bottom of screenshot):



Isn't her relationship with Karen already kind of iffy?

I suppose you think you have a point about it being landlocked... I believe that all that is necessary is a river or stream.  (If you like "east coast" music, this may be up your alley.)  And if your from the Canadian prairies... Well, I assume you have already heard it.  ;)

I would think the desert equivalent of a pirate would be a stagecoach bandit, or maybe a cattle rustler.

When Art was reading his book, I think he said he had a pirate radio station at a military base in Amarillo, Texas.

If she no longer believes in magic how is this Satanist supposed to help her? Remit some funds for her cat or lawyer?

Call her up and arrange a come-to-Beelzebub meeting?
