My third time on the show, but this one was just a little update.

Mentioned your name a couple times, our DD project, and was able to mention, Klaus, Bill S., & Alex.
Talked about Electric Ant from Marvel.

Joe Q as a great EIC at Marvel & commented on his questions about Jim Lee & Geoff Johns at DC and why I think they are grand.

The host was nice enough to plug Kabuki and The Shy Creatures.

Was very cool.
I've listened to the show since 97 so It's always a buzz to be on the show live.
Next: Oprah
:)

Read the title and didn't realize you were addressing BENDIS!. I thought Brian Glass had done the interview. Didn't know enough to realize that would have been Bryan though. They should have him back some day.

What was the main reason you were on the show (and have been on before)? I've only ever occasionally listened to Coast to Coast, but I thought you had to get fondled by an alien or something before they'd see you.

But does he drink from double walled Bodum glasses? I don't think so.

Coast-to-Coast just isn't the same unless it's Art Bell!

He possessed just the right amount of curiosity balanced by cynicism.
Every other host in this particular radio genre, imo, faults too far in one direction or the other.
Art was the master!

I totally agree. The only C2C host I currently enjoy is Ian Punnett, and he's only on like 3 times a month. George Noory is god awful, I have no idea why he got the main hosting gig after Arts 83rd retirement...

The first time I was on, I discussed Kabuki & my children's book The Shy Creatures.
The second time was discussing adapting Philip K. Dick for Electric Ant.


I enjoy the occasional alien talk, but mostly it seems the guests are authors and discuss the subjects of their books. Michio Kaku is a frequent guest discussing physics. Often authors about books of some kind of History, or inventions, or social phenomenal, or science, etc.

Ian is great. He is the host who has interviewed me all 3 times. And he always does weekends. Every Saturday and Sunday with the occasional fill in during the week.

He hosts some really interesting show. One of my faves was the fellow who was sure he solved the mystery to D.B. Cooper.
And we'd e-mail back and forth during the commercial breaks about how far out and cool it was.

Totally agree. :thumb:

I'm a member of their Streamlink service purely to listen to the Art Bell archives and download when Art's guest-hosting. They add two Art Bell classic episodes every week, available for streaming. And anything Art hosted since early 2007 and is up and available for download.

Noory's okay, but he's like grandpa. Nice, polite, always accommodating, not the least bit confrontational, willing to give you a Werther's candy and lull you to sleep. Whereas Art Bell is the raspy-voiced loner, broadcasting from a bunker somewhere in the desert, smoking cigarettes and talking about aliens, Area 51, ghosts, EVP, Bigfoot, remote viewing, and astrophysics. Art Bell is my kind of people.

I agree, the DB Cooper segments have been outstanding over the last couple years
