RIP Art Bell

[OutHouse]

A legend in radio had passed. Coast 2 coast AM kept me awake on many road trips.

I used to listen to Coast to Coast Am all the time. The show had an uncanny ability to keep you up all night. The Halloween shows were the best. I actually found the show while trying to see if I could listen to my telephone through the telephone line one night in the backyard with a shortwave radio back in 2002. As I tuned the dial I came across a radio show talking about aliens and UFOs. I went into the house and listened. From then on I was hooked. Now I listen to Coast To Coast AM through my Echo Dot since I installed the iHeartRadio App. No more fuzzy and scratchy audio from my small portable AM/FM radio.

I read at the Coast to Coast AM website that Art holds a world record for being on the air the longest. Some 114 hours worth I believe. Pretty damn impressive.

May you now have all of the answers of the universe. Rest in peace.

The title and body of that thread has just as much vagueness as an Art Bell show.
