Alex Jones sells alarmism; it’s his shtick. At least Art Bell was entertaining, and everyone knew he was just putting on a show for that purpose. But, this Alex Jones guy is way out there.
We used to listen to Joe Pyne on the radio in LA (1950s and 1960s). Controversial and abrasive as hell; but that was his shtick. But he was not into fabulism and the wildest of conspiracy theories like Alex Jones spouts about.
I used to have a good friend from LA who would stop in Del Mar to pick me up when he was in town, who was frequently on the Art Bell Show.
Art was wonderful i still think he kilt his wife tho
