Community Announcement Long time resident, and radio show host, Art Bell died today at 72 years old in his home in Pahrump Nevada, the Sheriffs Department has announced on Facebook.

I think my favorite of Arts guests was the Native-American naked Black Elk (IIRC). He talked about skin-walkers. Creepy. Especially on long drives in the desert. After midnight. When youre low on gas...
My goodness! Thats...incredible!!!
Art had learned that there was an alien base in Damascus and was going to announce it today, but the U.S. bombed it and killed him to cover it up.
And Mel’s hole.
Agreed. Youtube has all of those interviews.
I don't think Noory has ever disagreed with a guest, or ever expressed the tiniest bit of skepticism.
Just overheard two guys on HAM radio the other day talking about Art. One of them lives in north Nevada and the other guy asked if he knew Art. Bell, of course, was a long time amateur radio enthusiast.
73 Art. RIP.
PING
.
Of all of Arts replacements, I thought Whitney Strieber had the personae and voice for the job. Ive grown to like George Noory for his familiarity.alone but hes waaay too gee whiz. I liked Striebes sange froid.
Art continually warned Noory about Ouija boards being very harmful. Noory still coos about them which makes me scream at radio.
George Noory had too many outright fake interviews. What I absolutely didn’t like about him is that he kept inviting that fraud Nancy Lieder on his show even after he said he would never have her on his show again. It shows no real integrity.
He did have a great voice that didn’t fit his very ordinary looks. Perfect for radio! Remember the recording from hell? Also Mel’s Hole. Very sorry to hear he didn’t live longer.
I wish the doubled overnight show was about normal subjects. I dont mind conspiracy theories or some scary ghost stuff at Halloween, but I hated hearing the anal probing ET landings and whatnot. Radio is great at night, knocks me to sleep, but Im not into occult stuff and most of it is just ridiculous.
Yes, he was. When Noory took over from Art, I quickly lost interest in the show. He just never could fill Art's shoes.
Heavy smoker Art Bell was way past his expiration date living on borrowed time. RIP.
Lord bless Art Bell for his gift of entertainment to others.
Thanks Revel.
I hope he went out smiling. :^)
He was, lest we forget, another global warming / AGW nitwit.

RIP. His entertaining shows made many a late-night hour seem to fly by.
Sorry to read. The original Art Bell on late night radio was a blast. Never was the same after the troubles with his son.
