Last minute reschedule of Chris Carter opens the lines for you tonight.

Chris was only going to be able to do one hour out of his busy schedule and something has taken him away from that commitment tonight.


Hype an announcement all show and then it doesn't even happen. The only thing that could even save face would be if Art is the one doing open lines.

That something is Art Bell not doing the interview and Carter not doing podcast interviews with amateurs.

there really is no elation in Carter cancelling..what there is is a lot of sarcasm...

last night after the huge build up about the special..announcement and we found who it was i thought it was either gonna be a short show or he would end up canceling for some reason..which didnt surprise me..again..i see no elation...most are probably like me..not surprised any more with what is going on with the show..it hasn't been horrible but it hasn't ben anything wow factor and hasn't been the shambled that OSOM has become

[bellNwhistle]

Keith just posted an update saying it is all fine and the show will continue for now and that Heather had a significant size audience. There is a dick joke there. Lol. I find his update timing fascinating. As in the size was significant. Never mind. Carry on.

That's kind of an odd update from Keith.

woosh

Give me something more intelligent than a "woosh" on this one.

I am not a troll.  I haven't said anything controversial since joining this place (which was awesome earlier this summer, and is why i am still here)

My original comments still stand, and had a few thoughtful replies until yours.

Duly noted - that sucks

Ha, what a passive aggressive dick Keith is.

Howard Hughes’ The Unexplained decided to go a “different route,” which I don’t know what that is, as his pre-recorded show was simply played here on Mondays, nothing was going to change that. He never was LIVE, so there was no problem with us continuing to carry his show. Howard had been approached months ago, to do a LIVE 5-day a week program to be aired right before Art. Unfortunately, Howard could not make the changes in his life or make adjustments to his broadcast location to make this happen. It was a risk Howard didn’t want to take. It’s too bad, because Howard would have been the one to sit in for Art, had he already been doing a LIVE show here on DMDN.

Maybe he was getting emails wondering if the show was shut canned.  Who knows.   It's the same for all those folks at Dark Matter...  They really need a media person or somebody in PR to help them get their fucking message straight  Lol.

[GravitySucks]

If I was Heather, I would have scheduled a replay and done open lines tomorrow.

I, for one, want to see her and the network succeed. This is still a better show than C2C with 20 minutes of commercials an hour and a couple shows per week of infomercials.

[Sandra Kristen]

Sorry guys and even Sandra

Apology accepted

[Oleus]

At what point do Vara's claims start to seem true

Jeeze

Maybe it really is some kind of indie radio mafia, they sure talk like it when they stab each other in the back

Airing their business shit for the world to see... There's a good glimpse of how things are run over at DMDN.  It's all professional!

Fuuuccckkk is this true? If you are Heather do you say fuck it all and leave. Wow that is cold. Apparently Hughes was smart enough not to get involved.

no worries my sarcasm radar wasn't on for this one and didn't know the full buildup/backstory.

[Oleus]

Yes.  If I was her I would leave 15 minutes ago.  No questions asked.  Read the f'ing tea leaves

Sorry guys and even Sandra

nothing to be sorry about ..just ..kinda meh..it's not even the host..Heather has been getting better just..there is so little that is new with most of the guests that its ..if ou have heard any paranormal show in the last decade..ya have heard it all by now..that and there just isn't enough...variety..UFO's Bigfoot...etc etc..to me at least..the better shows have been the more science based ones

[ponyboysunset]

I am available for PR. Aw hell, haven't they seen Fight Club? You do not talk about private business publicly.

[Sandra Kristen]

An hour interview can be recorded ANYTIME. Andy Weir, the writer of the Martian, gave Hoaxie an hour (and that interview was really good). If it was going to be a limited interview, of an hour, you could even record it earlier and have Art do it if that is an issue.

You don't hype it up for 3 hours the previous night and then cancel it a few hours before the program. The hype is what makes this so bad and I wonder how bad the reaction would've been if I hadn't spoiled the guest announcement.

[trostol]

she doesn't want to do the show from what i understand to begin with..she'd rather be in the background

[ponyboysunset]

Yes.  If I was her I would leave 15 minutes ago.  No questions asked.  Read the f'ing tea leaves

What a slap in the face. Wow.

[Oleus]

What a slap in the face. Wow.

She can slap them back in the face by becoming successful totally independent of this... which is highly likely

I was going to ask you to pass the glue.  It's come to that.

Hey sniff sniff pass! Don't mess up the glue rotation brah!!!

[DeltaBravo]

Indeed. The last thing MITD needs is someone who has a life beyond BG and DMDN.

If I were in her position and not privy to some other master plan - Keith's latest update would have me out the door.

Time for Another Update from Keith
Posted on January 7, 2016 in On The Air | 338 Views | Leave a response

I want to update you on what has been changing and staying the same here at Dark Matter.

In order to free up my time to concentrate on Midnight in the Desert (MITD) and Other Side of MIdnight (OSOM) production and membership site/website maintenance, I decided to stop producing the LIVE versions of the shows that ran before MITD. These shows have successfully been transitioned to a pre-recorded playback here on Dark Matter Digital Network (DMDN). So most of your favorite shows are still here just on a different day of the week.

DMDN will still broadcast programming 24/7, with an approximately 6-8 hour schedule of new shows everyday repeating over night and the next morning. MITD and OSOM will still be broadcast LIVE and for FREE on the Internet stream, but are not repeated since they are part of our membership subscription service, which frankly pays the costs for the entire DMDN operation, payroll, out-sourced services, bandwidth, satellite time, licenses, etc.

Midnight in the Desert with Heather Wade is playing to a significant sized audience and looks to be able to continue for some time into the future. Art is behind the scenes guiding the show, so his influence is certainly felt. No word on progress in the investigation of the threats on Art and his family, so we need to let some time pass.

Other Side of Midnight with Richard C Hoagland continues following MITD and with minor adjustments to things behind the scenes, will be producing a great variety of shows to come.

Please continue to support the efforts of Heather and Richard through your subscription memberships to the Time Travelers and Club 19.5.

Only a few shows have unfortunately decided to leave DMDN for various reasons:

Howard Hughes’ The Unexplained decided to go a “different route,” which I don’t know what that is, as his pre-recorded show was simply played here on Mondays, nothing was going to change that. He never was LIVE, so there was no problem with us continuing to carry his show. Howard had been approached months ago, to do a LIVE 5-day a week program to be aired right before Art. Unfortunately, Howard could not make the changes in his life or make adjustments to his broadcast location to make this happen. It was a risk Howard didn’t want to take. It’s too bad, because Howard would have been the one to sit in for Art, had he already been doing a LIVE show here on DMDN.

Michael Vara’s Late Night in Midlands’ exit was a surprising burning of the bridge. Michael was also approached a few months ago, to join us on DMDN LIVE each night. He was already doing a 5-day a week show, so it was easy for him. We shared some statistics (old by now), and he was very willing to instantly drop his show from his own LMN network and come here. He stated he wasn’t making any real money doing what he was doing. I offered him the time slot and we would set up a subscription service for his archived shows also. I only had one condition, that he not trash other DMDN hosts. It’s not very professional to do that as you can imagine. There was only one guest that Michael regularly had on his show that continued to disparage Richard Hoagland any time he could. While it’s OK to disagree on opinions and make those known, it is not appropriate to personally attack and berate another host at any opportunity. So Michael decided it was in his best interest to continue to allow this guest to attack RCH on his show instead of coming here. So we discontinued the discussions. I had no hard feelings, just sad that he couldn’t make one adjustment to his show. He kept supplying me with a best of show to play on Saturdays and it got good ratings here on DMDN.

Then one Saturday after Art had to step away, without warning, Michael supplied a show that appeared to be a normal interview show. Then in the last 10 minutes of the show, he had to “blow up” and rant about the past negotiations we had. He spewed disgust towards me, Art and RCH, making claims that were untrue, claiming that RCH ran the network, which is ignorant. He obviously was very offended that we had one simple condition to his adoption here, and wanted to expand on his reasons for turning us down. He had kept this all to himself for weeks and weeks, saying nothing to me and continuing to take advantage of us by providing a show to play here. Why he choose this time to rail on us when it would have been the perfect time to re-visit the viability of him coming to DMDN once again. I think it’s a matter of jealousy and ignorance on his part. It also seems he is continuing to publicly post hateful rants and expose confidential information passed to him. The information he is posting is seriously in error, so I would caution anyone to not believe a word he says. It just sounds like sour grapes now.

Again, I’m shocked as to why he would choose to go off the rails on us like that, when he was on the top of my list to discuss possible LIVE shows on DMDN once again. Literally the definition of burning a bridge.

Paranormal Central with Jeffrey Gonzales and Allen Thomas has decided to leave our network also. They pretty much did a video show and it was tricky to pull off a radio version of it. I’m sure we brought many new listeners to them and they became much more known to the genre because of being here. They were just really excited to be part of the Art Bell phenomenon, so I’m not surprised he decided to leave once Art did. I wish them good luck in their endeavors, I have no hard feelings, I really liked those guys.

Dr J has decided to continue his show on another network.

So that’s it, I have a few more shows to try out, and already have started the Military X-Files on Wednesdays and brought back Real Ghost Stories daily So you will hear some new ones, along with the usual great shows.

Keith needs to stop lying about OSOM producing great variety of shows

[K_Dubb]

she doesn't want to do the show from what i understand to begin with..she'd rather be in the background

Yeah it makes me believe she really stepped in to keep the show going because there was no-one else.
