From the Southeast Asian capital city of the Philippines, Manila, I bid you good morning, good afternoon, good evening, whatever it may be, wherever you are around the world.
I'm Art Bell for George Norrie, and it's the end of the year, so it means a lot of things.
We're going to do a couple of days of prediction shows, and I'm going to sort of do a preamble to that.
But first, I want to note something very worrisome.
Rush Limbaugh, Rush, who is my co-worker, was in Hawaii on vacation.
And according to a Honolulu television station, paramedics apparently have Rush to the hospital in Hawaii, near the resort where he was staying.
I guess he had chest pains.
This is according to KITV, and we're waiting for any further details, of course.
The station, citing unnamed sources, so always be careful about a story like this, said 58-year-old Limbaugh was taken to Queen's Medical Center in, I'm quoting here, serious condition.
So, Rush, what can I say, buddy?
God, 58, pretty young for that.
Of course, as you know, he had a lot of extra weight and trimmed a lot of that away and sort of changed his lifestyle.
Unlike me for the most part, changed his lifestyle, and you just wouldn't expect this at 58.
Very vibrant, but a very hard worker, too.
So take care of Rush.
And if there are any additional details, I'm going to watch the news, but I'd appreciate any updates by Fast Blast, which I will then check out before airing.
All right.
Very somber note to begin this kind of a program with.
Very somber note.
As you know, Rush and I work for the same company and have for years and years and years and years.
Take care, buddy.
I hope you're okay.
Now, every year, at the very end of the year and just before the new year begins, we do something called predictions from all of you.
Predictions of what will occur in the year 2010.
2010.
You know, I never thought I'd get to see the year 2010.
I never thought I'd get to see you the year 20.
2000, really.
By the way, all the ABs are very well indeed.
And we've got a Christmas picture of Miss Asia on the website.
If you click on it and follow along, click on the second one, it gets bigger.
So you can see a pretty good picture of Asia.
She's turning into quite the young lady, I'll tell you.
And the last piece of personal news is my antenna project is still passing through the bureaucratic nightmare that we have here, but it's going to get done.
I have some confidence, some confidence anyway.
All right.
Here's how it works.
This last year was really something, wasn't it?
Oh, by the way, volcano update.
We have a volcano here at the Mayan Volcano.
And it has sort of started to get a little quieter.
Not as many earthquakes, not as much lava, but that worries them because it means, according to the scientists, that the lava is now building up in Mayan and as opposed to being ejected through the most perfect volcano hole in the world.
That's what it's famous for, by the way.
Very perfect cone.
And they're afraid it's getting plugged up now, and that's what, of course, causes an explosion.
You know, it's like, I don't know what it's like.
It's like shaking up a Coke bottle or something.
Anyway, so we're all watching the Mayan Volcano very carefully.
No worries here.
We're in Manila, about 300 miles.
The volcano is about 300 miles south of us.
All right, so predictions.
Let me give you the rules.
There are some simple rules, but they are very, very important.
You must follow them, or you will become ejected.
Now, I'm going to do open lines.
That means no screeners.
And no screeners, unless I run up against real serious trouble, and then I'll bring in a screener.
But I'm not going to do it.
We're going to have open lines.
And what that means is you dial the numbers that will appear on your radio shortly and just let it ring and let it ring and let it ring and let it ring.
That way you are not charged for being on hold and waiting if you're calling one of the pay lines.
That's first important to understand.
But here come the rules.
Most importantly, most importantly, these are psychic predictions.
Not, by the way, professional psychics, although they're not barred from calling.
I will not have a professional psychic guest.
But if they want to call and declare themselves a professional psychic, I'll put a little P by their prediction.
And then we'll see if they do any better than any of the rest of you.
Because I think everybody's kind of psychic, frankly.
And so this is your opportunity to dig deep into your psychic center.
Really try and envision what's going to happen in 2010.
Now, listen to me very carefully.
I don't want any predictions based on your political hopes, hates, wishes, desires, whatever.
None of that.
And if I detect it, I will eliminate the prediction and go on to the next person.
Only one prediction Per caller.
Only one caller per two shows tonight and tomorrow.
These are all very important rules.
Not many of them, but very important.
Again, the most important, I think, is that it really be from your psychic center.
I mean, take a minute.
We've got some commercials to do and all the rest of it.
And think really hard about what you think might happen in 2010.
unidentified
All right?
art bell
And then we'll have a better year.
You know, I'll read some of last, in fact, I'll do that in a minute.
Read some of last year's predictions and we'll rate them as we go.
If I get it wrong, let me know.
You can fast blast me, but I'm not taking any predictions by fast blast.
I'm not taking any predictions by email, only the ones that you hear on the air.
unidentified
So if you get it right, you really get it right.
art bell
Everybody knows.
And during the year, there's people who keep these lists, including me.
They are stored in the Bell Family Vault during the year.
And then we look at them, you know, next year, same time, and rate them, which we'll be doing during the course of this program.
No predictions of political assassination.
Now, I shouldn't have to tell you that, but I will tell you, as I do every year, that if somebody makes, some little old lady in Missouri makes a political assassination prediction, that without any doubt and absolutely for sure, the Secret Service will come and knock on my door.
And I'll tell you, it's happened so many years in the past that, you know, here I am in the Philippines, in Manila.
They would come to the Philippines and they would knock on my door, and they would be pretty upset having to come all the way to the other side of the world to knock on my door.
So I will, you know, I have a seven-second save your butt button here, and I press it so it'll never get on the air.
But don't even try it.
And then I'm going to number.
As you give me a prediction, I will assign it a number so that we can remember it and remember you.
Okay?
No email predictions, no fast blast, only here, only during open lines.
And I'll repeat these rules every now and then, but that's sort of the basic idea.
In a moment, we'll review some predictions made last year for this year.
I don't know what kind of year it's going to be.
It's probably not very good because we were in the middle of such a deep financial crisis last year when we did this that I think it affected people's predictive ability.
They were very worried about it.
We'll take a break and be right back.
Again, my best wishes and hopes for healing for Rush Limbaugh in the hospital in Hawaii.
There is, you know, the recent news, of course, I get to come to you sort of after a lot of news has happened, volcanoes here and, I don't know, people trying to blow up airplanes.
Oh, yeah.
We had the guy with the shoe, right?
Trying to blow up the airplane.
Now the guy, they ought to call him the fancy pants bomber.
The fancy pants bomber.
Now there's been an attack in Yemen, by the way.
The Yemenis are trying to clear out al-Qaeda.
Good luck.
All right, looking at some of the predictions you made last year for this year, let's see how you did.
Number one was aliens land in Memphis.
I didn't notice that occurred.
Did any of you?
So we're going to call that bonk.
See, that's the kind of thing that, I mean, fine.
If you really, really, really think aliens are going to land in Memphis, Tennessee, then fine.
But, you know, if you make that kind of prediction, you know, it's probably going to be a bonk.
Number two, nuclear device detonates in the U.S. We've had that prediction every year.
That's a big bonk.
Three, new monarch on the English throne.
No, bonk.
Number four, let's see.
Something about a representative from Congress would be hypnotized and report a UFO sighting.
And I think that's a bonk, but if that happens, somebody let me know.
Remember, you can go to the website and fast blast me.
Number five, a major earthquake in a West Coast city.
Now, you would think that that would have been a ding because there almost always is some kind of major earthquake, but I'm bonking it because there really wasn't.
Number six, U.S. and Canada become more socialist.
Yeah, I'll give that a ding.
That was the first ding.
Number six, U.S. and Canada become more socialist.
And I'll do that without comment.
Economy, number seven, economy flounders slash depression.
Well, yeah, I guess I would have to ding that.
It certainly floundered.
I don't know about a depression, although it was close.
Number eight, if you're unemployed, certainly it was a pretty depressive.
Number eight, harsh winter, food shortages?
Well, that's a tentative bonk, I think.
The winter was about average, I guess, and I don't think there were any food shortages that I'm major ones that I'm aware of.
Number nine, nuclear device goes off in the Saudi oil fields.
That would have been a big one, and that's thankfully a bonk.
That's number nine.
Number ten, Obama honeymoon over by October.
Okay, I'm going to give that a ding because the approval numbers for Obama certainly by October were plunging.
So I think that's a tentative ding.
Number 11, proof that Bigfoot exists.
Bonk.
Bonkity bonk.
Number 12, Coast Listeners form Insomniacs Club.
Well, Coast Listeners are an Insomniacs Club, but that's a bonk because I know of no club formation.
Number 13, the year of the homicide.
I actually took the time to check on this, and that's a big bonk because homicides actually went down in the United States.
In fact, I should tell you a little story.
I'll hold it.
No, I won't.
I'll tell it now.
Let's see.
We were watching a movie last night here about some pedophile.
You know, it was a typical story, like so many movies about a pedophile in some part of the U.S., a little girl, and it was a very sad story.
And we started talking about that kind of crime, and then crime in general here, where I am, for example, in the Philippines, versus the United States.
And so I went to Google, and I started looking, trying anyway, to look this stuff up.
First, pedophilia, because it doesn't really go on here.
I'm not saying there isn't any, but it doesn't really, as a general rule, go on here.
There has been a lot of human trafficking and that kind of thing.
But in terms of, can I call it personal pedophilia or that sort of thing, it really doesn't go on here.
And then I started looking at general crime statistics.
And I think there's a very, you know, there's a big impression out there that the Philippines is crime-riddled.
Well, it's not.
It's really not.
The crime stats here are extremely low.
Now, there are other areas where I don't know that you'd want to say this country excels, but graft and bribery and that kind of thing, there's a ton of it here.
But in terms of crimes, crimes against property, crimes against people, crimes, murder, robbery, those sorts of crimes, very, I mean, just very, very, very much lower than the United States.
Not as low, for example, as Japan, but not far away.
You can look it up on the web.
And I was pretty shocked.
I, too, thought there was, now, of course, there are terrorists here.
And if you go down to the southern part of the Philippines, you could lose your head or something.
Down to Mindanao, there's been quite a bit of trouble.
We had the Apatuan slaughter down in Mindanao, that kind of thing.
But as a general rule, crime, crime, you know, breaking into homes, stealing cars, that sort of thing.
Very much lower here for some reason, whatever reason.
I guess it's I don't know what it is, frankly.
It's worth pondering.
All right, we're going to start taking predictions.
That's what I got down to number 13.
Number 14, commercial real estate folds.
That's kind of a ding.
It didn't die as badly as some people thought.
Number 15, 15% inflation by the third to fourth quarter, bonk.
No way.
Not even close.
All right.
Once again, it's going to be open lines.
You know the numbers.
If you don't, you should.
Well, let me give them to you.
We haven't given them out yet.
West of the Rockies, 1-800-618-8255.
East of the Rockies, 1-800-825-5033.
First time caller line, we've got a bunch of those.
One of those, rather, 1-818-501-4721.
Wildcard lines.
We do have a bunch of those.
Area code 818-501-4109.
The international line from anywhere in the world.
Contact the AT ⁇ T operator and tell her you want to call 800-893-0903.
And again, I will assign a number to each prediction.
So who will get the honor of making prediction number one for the year 2010?
Somebody on the wildcard line.
Hello there.
You're on the air.
unidentified
Hi.
It's good to talk to you, Mr. Bell.
I'm calling from Salem, Oregon.
art bell
Sam, my name's Tom.
unidentified
Yep.
art bell
Tom.
Tom, you're going to get the honor of making the first prediction for the next year.
unidentified
Thank you.
Here's my prediction.
Israel will attack Iraq's nuclear weapons facilities in a nighttime blitzkrieg in the month of December.
This will cause a worldwide panic in the financial markets, thus moving gold to over $2,000 an ounce.
art bell
Really?
You don't sell gold, do you?
unidentified
Nope.
I don't have anything to do with it.
I wish I had some money to put it in, but I don't, Art.
art bell
All right.
Israel attacks Iraq.
Now, let me ask you a question.
From where did you get this prediction?
unidentified
I just had just a thought or a dream about it.
And I saw planes hitting something in Iraq.
And I just assumed it was Israel and that they got set up with those facilities being completed and threatened by that country.
art bell
Do you think that Israel will ask the United States permission to attack?
In other words, notify us first or at least ask something?
unidentified
No, this will be completely something they're not going to talk to anyone about.
It's going to be silent.
art bell
Do you think that would lead to a wider war?
unidentified
I don't think it will lead to a wider war.
I don't see that happening.
It being a wider war in the world, wider war, wider war in the world.
But I do see it affecting, like I said in the last bar, that's the financial markets in an adverse way.
It'll be like a sting type effect.
It'll be just for a little while.
The financial markets are going to go crazy, and then it will settle back down again.
That's my sense.
art bell
And how do you think Iran would respond to such an attack?
unidentified
Iran will do a bunch of faber rattling and saying a bunch of threatening stuff.
You know, their normal thing.
They already do that, I think, and the world and the world knows that.
And that will continue.
But they won't go any further with that.
But they're sure going to make it sound like they're going to do this and that and other thing.
But they're going to be quieter because of pressure, actually, I think, From Russia on that deal.
And through, I guess I'll put this word, through the back door of Russia.
Right.
art bell
And there's also sort of a general knowledge about how many nuclear devices Israel has buried in the desert.
unidentified
Right.
But I think that on that, answer that question about them saber-rattling and why they're not going to do anything too major is that Russia is going to talk to them quietly behind closed doors and say, you're not going to do this.
I think that's where that will end up with them, and they'll back off.
art bell
Well, I would hope so.
I think you could easily be right.
I know certainly they're on the verge of it.
All right, Tom, you made prediction number one, buddy.
Thank you very, very much.
And we will accelerate with the prediction taking and reading as the program continues.
Again, I want these to be from your psychic center, so dig deep, everybody, from Manila in the Philippines.
I'm Mark Bill.
Here I am.
We're doing predictions for 2010.
This is the annual prediction show, one of two, actually.
And for those who tuned in late, very quickly, I'm going to go through this very quickly.
The rules are, and this is the most important, that it come from your psychic center, that it not be a political hope, hate, wish, whatever.
An honest psychic prediction.
That way we have the best opportunity to have a good year, right?
Only one prediction per caller, only one caller for the two days of this show.
No predictions of political assassination.
Not only will I zap it out, but, you know, I'll zap you out too.
Predictions only taken on the air.
No predictions on Test Blast, no predictions on email, only ones taken here on the air and numbered, and it'll be done in an open line fashion.
In other words, no screener.
So be nice.
Predictions continue in a moment.
All right.
Just a very quick update.
Rush apparently is resting comfortably now.
That's good news.
And appreciates your prayers and good wishes.
Rush was admitted to a hospital in Hawaii where he was on vacation with chest pains.
But apparently he's resting comfortably.
So that is potentially good news.
All right.
Let's get this thing really underway.
We've got the first prediction.
Let's do the next one.
On the first time caller line, you're on the air.
unidentified
Cheerio.
Where are you from?
art bell
Hi there.
Where are you calling from?
unidentified
I'm calling from the Motor City.
art bell
Detroit.
unidentified
Yes.
And oh, my God, for the last six years, I've been trying to get through.
And tonight is my night.
I'm celebrating.
I admire you and love you as a host.
art bell
Thank you.
unidentified
Definitely.
But I have a very shaky prediction to make for this year.
I am a prophetess, and I do receive messages from the Lord.
Sometimes it's basic instinct.
Sometimes it's of spiritual nature.
In the city of New York, there will be a terrorist move on the subway unit.
art bell
Let's see.
Subway.
unidentified
Yes, the subways of New York need to be heavily guarded.
A terrorist incident is going to occur.
I see the month of March as being a strong possibility with the Easter holiday coming in.
This is going to happen.
art bell
I think there's no doubt terrorism is going to be on the rise, and it's going to probably, you know, if I were to make a prediction, I'm not going to, but I think it's going to sort of escalate, but then de-escalate from the big 911 kind of attack down to smaller, kind of thing you're talking about, subway attacks, maybe individual aircraft, that kind of thing.
unidentified
That's right.
Remember in Japan in the early 90s when this terrorist man, I cannot remember his name, made a move on the Tokyo subway.
It's going to be a typical to the same thing.
And I would urge the United States and Homeland Security to tighten up those forces because it's going to be planned.
If it's not protected and guarded heavily, it's going to take a strong toll of human casualties.
art bell
All right.
Well, I really appreciate the prediction, and it is number two.
Thank you.
unidentified
Thank you.
Bye-bye.
art bell
Take care.
All right.
Well, there you have it.
Attack on the subway in New York City.
Yeah, it'll probably move in that direction, I think.
And we're going to have to continue this war on terror, and we're going to have to stop.
And probably what should have been done a long time ago.
I've always wondered why we went after Iraq when Afghanistan was hiding most of the really bad guys.
And it looks like other countries now as well.
So the delay in really going after them, I think, allowed them to sort of re gather.
Even though they're weakened by a lot of what we did, they're regathering and spreading out to other countries.
And if we don't stop it, they will eventually stop us.
Wildcard line, you're on the air.
Good morning.
unidentified
Hello.
art bell
Hello there.
unidentified
All right, how are you?
Happy New Year.
art bell
Very same to you, sir.
Where are you?
unidentified
I'm in Los Gatos, California.
My name's Brian.
art bell
Okay, Brian, you have the honor of prediction number three.
unidentified
Terrific.
Well, listen, I'm not prone to vision.
You know, I'm not a psychic or anything.
But about five years ago, I had a vision where I actually was awake and my eyes were closed, and I saw a city.
I was flying in this vision.
I saw like a flicker of light in my eyes, and then I looked at the light, and I saw like a city underneath.
And it was like shaped, all the streets were shaped like bicycle, like a bicycle wheel.
And I looked up and there were seven to ten skyscrapers up the front, and I saw like a square-shaped building, looked like a picture frame, and then I saw a bomb go up, like a hydrogen bomb.
And I've been following it on the internet.
I've been using Google Earth for like the last five years, and I've watched the skyline in Paris form this exact picture.
And this year, I looked at it earlier this year, a couple months ago, and I saw that the skyscrapers that I saw in this vision are there now.
And there was an atomic bomb went off in Paris.
And I not only thought, I saw it three times.
I had the same vision three times, but from different perspectives.
art bell
Well, let me just point out to you: did you then see your own death?
unidentified
No, I just was like, I was like watching.
art bell
Because if you were close enough in an airplane to see a hydrogen bomb go off in Paris, your plane would be disintegrated.
unidentified
Yeah, I was actually flying in the vision.
art bell
I understand.
unidentified
Yeah.
art bell
At least until the shockwave.
unidentified
Yeah, you know, I was like not flying in an airplane.
I was like flying over the ground.
art bell
You were flying sort of out of body.
unidentified
Yeah, it was like an out-of-body experience.
art bell
Okay, well, you might survive then.
Who knows?
All right.
It's prediction number three, a nuclear attack on Paris.
And I'm not wild about the French either, but I certainly never wish that on them.
Okay, let's go to West of the Rockies.
You are on the air.
Good morning.
Hello.
unidentified
Yes, Mr. Bell.
art bell
That would be me.
unidentified
This is Gareth Brown from Alexo Viajo in California.
My prediction is that the United States is going to have a different form of currency than barter systems.
They will still use the people who are in the upper esquelon.
But I believe that there will be more of a barter system for the people in the lower echelon.
art bell
So that's sort of economic doomsday.
unidentified
I believe it's not a doomsday.
art bell
That's pretty close.
I mean, look, if it descends all the way to the barter system, and I'm not saying that couldn't happen, but that would be pretty near economic doomsday.
unidentified
It would be equality for the people who can't have cash.
art bell
Okay, all right, all right.
I've got it.
Prediction number four.
And I maintain what I just said.
If it descended to the barter system, that would be virtually economic doomsday.
I suppose there's a lot to worry about with the dollar.
There are countries now that are considering the possibility of no longer using the dollar as the main sort of world currency.
And, of course, we've got so many dollars printed up that one has to worry about inflation somewhere down the line.
They've somehow kept a cap on it thus far.
And to me, that's absolutely amazing.
Okay, let's go.
And I believe this would be East of the Rockies.
You are on the air.
Good morning.
unidentified
Yeah, I was just doing the prediction thing.
art bell
You bet.
Number five is what it'll be.
unidentified
Okay.
art bell
Where are you?
I need to ask for that.
unidentified
North Carolina.
Okay.
art bell
Oh, North Carolina.
Okay.
unidentified
My bursty.
I was thinking NSPD will be initiated.
NSPD 51?
art bell
I have no idea what that is.
unidentified
National Security Presidential Directive 51.
art bell
Would you turn your radio off, please?
Everybody do that as soon as you connect.
I mean, it's like the first thing you have to do is turn your radio off, right?
So if NSPD 51 was initiated, what would happen?
unidentified
I think it's just nicknamed Dictator Directives.
And it's a kind of a Bush got it put through in 2007.
And it's in case of an emergency, natural or man-made, president can take over without going through Congress and initiate whatever martial law, whatever executive orders.
art bell
Yeah, that sounds a little like sort of a political.
unidentified
Yeah, that's true.
We can't get political.
That's right.
No, I didn't say you couldn't get political, but it sounds like I'm against it or for it.
I'm just putting it out there.
But I understand that.
art bell
This came to you as a psychic prediction as opposed to something.
unidentified
No, it didn't.
I'm not a psychic.
art bell
I'm erasing it.
unidentified
Okay.
That's a political.
If I can think of something else, I'll call back and I'll let you know.
art bell
Oh, no, you've already blown your call.
I mean, that's it.
So have a good year, sir, and take care.
That would have been number five, but I'm Xing it out because that's sort of a political commentary more than it is a psychic prediction.
So there you go, see?
That's how you can lose.
That's how you can lose.
I'm not allowing that kind of prediction.
Let's go to a wildcard line and say, top of the morning, you're on the air.
unidentified
Hi, Art.
Yes.
art bell
Where are you calling from?
unidentified
I'm calling from Wisconsin.
art bell
And your first name?
unidentified
My name's George.
art bell
Okay.
And your prediction will be number six?
unidentified
My prediction is that one of the top stories of 2010 will be a black American male is going to receive a double hand transplant, and the donor is going to be a white male.
Hmm.
art bell
And how did this prediction come to you?
unidentified
I just, it just came in my head when I was thinking about the future.
What's going to happen next year and what's going to be the big stories?
art bell
Hand transplant.
Double hand transplant.
unidentified
And he's going to become sort of like a celebrity, I guess?
Because of that.
art bell
Yeah, I guess there would be some celebrity attached to that.
All right, thank you very much.
A weird one.
unidentified
Double hand transplant.
art bell
Interracial at that.
Strange.
Okay, first time caller line, you're on the air.
Hello.
unidentified
Hello?
art bell
Yes, hello.
unidentified
Yes, I'm calling about prediction.
art bell
Yes, well, that's what we're here for.
So your prediction, if you make it, will be number six.
unidentified
I drew a card and I think that the autistic people will something will happen where they'll be able to wake up or interact more with us.
art bell
That would be wonderful.
unidentified
Yeah.
art bell
That's a very interesting prediction.
A very interesting prediction.
So in other words, they discover some kind of cause, perhaps, and then cure for autism, huh?
unidentified
Yeah, I'm not sure if it's the energy.
I'm feeling like energy, like they'll just, there's something that will happen where the stress is.
Yeah, I've got it.
art bell
I've got it.
All right.
Thank you very much.
That's number six.
And that would be wonderful.
As you know, there is a virtual epidemic of autism, and nobody really knows what it is.
There are a lot of people who think it's immunizations.
Of course, doctors say that's nonsense.
But, you know, it was interesting as Asia began to get her immunizations, just to play it safe, instead of letting them, you know, load her up as they tend to do with two or three at a time, I said, you know, what's the harm in spreading it out?
So that's, as a parent, we discussed it, I discussed it with a doctor, and we sort of spread them out a little bit more, and she's through just about all of her immunizations now.
She's now at 2.5 years old.
And by the way, once again, there is a picture taken at Christmas of Asia on the website, and you can click on it and then click again, and it gets bigger.
So take a look.
That's now Asia at 2.5 years of age.
If there would be help for autism, that would indeed be a wonderful thing.
I believe this would be the international line.
You're on the air.
unidentified
Hey, Art.
How are you doing?
art bell
I'm fine.
Where are you?
unidentified
I'm in Regina, Saskatchewan.
art bell
Ookie-dookie?
unidentified
You've never heard of it?
art bell
Oh, of course I have.
Sure.
unidentified
Oh, great, great.
It's up in Canada.
Anyways, my prediction for this year is we're going to have one of the coldest winters on record.
art bell
Really?
unidentified
Yeah, I believe so.
art bell
How's it doing so far?
unidentified
Oh, it's been cold up here.
art bell
How cold?
unidentified
Oh, in the Celsius range, it's been about minus 30, minus 40, quite a bit.
art bell
Good.
unidentified
Yeah, it's been cold.
art bell
Well, outside right now, it's about 79, 80 degrees here.
unidentified
Oh, wow.
I wish.
art bell
Just thought I'd rub it in a little bit.
Yeah.
Your prediction is number seven, one of the coldest winters on record.
That certainly would dim the view of the global warming folks, eh?
unidentified
It sure would.
You know, they say El Nino this year.
I don't know if I believe them.
art bell
Well, we sure had the year of the typhoon over here where I am.
unidentified
Yeah, it's been a scary year for you guys.
art bell
Yeah, it has been.
It's been a very strange year over here.
Okay, thank you very much.
By the way, we went through martial law.
I don't know if you followed it in the news or not, but we had martial law imposed not here in Manila, but down on Mindanao during the Apatuan massacre, the alleged killing of a lot of people.
It was 57 they finally settled on.
It was kind of a it wasn't an al-Qaeda deal at all.
It was a political family feud, a political family feud.
And so the president here imposed martial law down there for it only went on for, what was it, two or three weeks, something like that.
But it was weird.
I mean, you know, I was here in the Philippines last time there was martial law.
I was here when Marcos was here a very long time ago.
And so this would be the second time I was in country during martial law.
And you didn't notice any change here in Manila, of course, but down there it was pretty rough.
First time caller line, you are on the air.
Hi.
unidentified
Hello.
art bell
Hello.
unidentified
Yeah, Art?
art bell
Yes.
unidentified
Yeah, last spring I had a vision, and I've never had anything like this happen to me before.
This is Andy from Alcard, Illinois.
Yes, Andy.
Anyway, I went to lay down and take a nap, and all of a sudden it was like a video turned on.
And I just pictured this my son-in-law running into the bedroom saying, Dad, Dad, get up, get up.
Do you need to see this?
And I walk out, you know, go running to the front door.
And the ground is just opening up and geysers of dirt and debris shooting out of the ground.
And the sky is just bright orange.
And clouds are just flying by.
And it was, I thought maybe it was that spring, but because my grandson looked to be about the age he is now.
And I believe it was this spring.
Just massive earthquakes and just the sky was bright orange.
And it was just something massive going on.
And then about three nights later, my wife and I both had the identical dream that we were in town and a particular hospital that we both used to work at was collapsing.
And I think they're tied together.
But, you know, we both had the identical same dream.
art bell
That's weird.
unidentified
All right.
art bell
Well, listen, I've got it down.
It's prediction number eight: massive earthquakes.
I've kind of always had that fear myself.
I don't know.
Anybody else sort of down with that?
I mean, the ground opening up.
I've always had a fear of like a giant crack in the ground opening up and then just falling down.
I don't know.
I don't like that one.
That's been one of my basic fears.
Everybody has a few basic fears, and that's one of mine.
The ground sort of cracking open and then me falling into a big hole.
All right, predictions for the year 2010.
That's what we're up to from the other side of the world.
From the majority of you, Manila and the Philippines.
unidentified
I am Mark Bell.
art bell
Indeed, here I am.
Okay.
We're doing predictions, the annual prediction show for the year 2010 just ahead of us.
And I know this is repetitive and sickening to hear again and again, but I'll do it very quickly.
Most important, these predictions should come from your psychic center, not political hopes, hates, wishes, that sort of thing.
One prediction per caller, only one caller for the two days.
No predictions of political assassination.
Predictions only on the air.
Only the ones taken here on the air and assigned a number.
So everything's straight up, right?
No email predictions, no fast blast predictions, and all done on open lines, no call screener.
So that's the deal.
And we're reviewing.
Let me review a few more predictions from last year.
Number 16, Obama will nationalize the electric companies.
Well, he didn't do that.
Bonk.
Number 17, September 15th, there'll be a nationwide pandemic, the world, in fact.
You know, I'm going to give that a ding because that was H1N1, so certainly we've got a worldwide pandemic.
That's fair to say.
unidentified
18, flooding for the South.
art bell
You know, I think that's a ding.
There was a lot of flooding in the South, right?
So tentative ding for that.
Number 19, SETI signal detected.
Bonk.
No SETI signal that I'm aware of.
I'd be all over that.
Number 20, government takes gold back.
Bonk.
They didn't do it, did they?
So remember, with these predictions, be careful.
Now, again, I think last year a lot of it was, you know, colored by the financial disaster.
Number 21, the moon will get brighter.
I wonder how that would happen.
It's bonk.
As far as I know, it hasn't.
Number 22, new moon 09.
Oh, it'll be the rapture and the first contact.
Well, no rapture.
No first contact.
That's definitely a bonk.
Number 23, Chrysler and GM merge by October.
Well, that didn't happen.
That's a bonk.
Lots of trouble there, but it didn't happen.
Let's see.
Number 24 is Cocker Spaniel in the White House as first dog.
I don't think that happened.
So that's a bonk.
I'm not sure what the first dog is.
I haven't paid attention to that.
So if I'm wrong about that, let me know.
Number 25, Pacific Northwest Forests Die.
That also would be a bonk.
So again, if I'm wrong on any of these, you know, I could have missed any of these.
So just let me know by Fast Blast.
But I think generally I'm correct.
All right.
In a moment, we will continue with your psychic predictions for the year 2010.
And back to the predictions we go.
We're predicting for 2010.
Please make it from your psychic center, not your political center, if possible.
Wildcard line, you're on the air.
Top of the morning.
unidentified
Hi, Art Bill.
art bell
Hi, turn your radio off, please.
unidentified
Yes, sir.
art bell
Or whoever's in the background there.
Okay, what is your first name and where are you?
unidentified
Stanley, I'm in North Carolina.
art bell
Okay, North Carolina.
You'll be prediction maker number nine.
unidentified
I think Israel is going to attack Iran and strike those nuclear bases, and Russia will be declared the new superpower.
art bell
Okay, on Israel attacking Iran.
That seems logical.
Hold on a second.
Hold on, hold on.
How does Russia, with its financial disaster, become a superpower just out of curiosity?
unidentified
Well, I guess they will deploy their militaristic abilities to protect Iran.
art bell
Oh.
Well, that would bring on the possibility of a war, maybe even a world war.
unidentified
and America would not react.
art bell
That's an interesting question.
That's an interesting possibility.
unidentified
All right.
art bell
Thank you very much.
That's prediction number nine.
And America would not intervene.
Certainly, one could see Israel attacking Iran's nuclear capability.
You would think after a while they'd get tired of building this stuff and then having to rebuild it again.
But you can certainly see Israel doing that.
I can't see Russia getting in the middle of it.
But you never know.
You never know.
Just, you know, the way the world works, I mean, you think that the Cold War is over.
You think the danger of a world nuclear holocaust is ended.
And then all of a sudden something like that could happen, and you never know.
unidentified
So, yeah, maybe.
art bell
Maybe.
Let's go to the first time caller line.
You're on the air.
Good morning.
unidentified
Morning, Art.
art bell
Hi.
First name, and where are you?
unidentified
Duke, I'm in Ohio.
art bell
All right, Duke.
It's going to be number 10 when you make it.
unidentified
Okay.
My prediction is that after a particularly deadly attack on a freighter off the coast of Somalia, an international force of international Military Force will launch massive strikes into Somalia and take out the bases of the Somali pirates.
Okay.
Attack Somalia.
art bell
Yeah, it's getting a little old, isn't it, these attacks by the pirates?
unidentified
Yeah, and I have a feeling that all it's going to take is one particularly deadly attack, or even worse, an RPG taking out a super freighter and creating an environmental disaster.
And I think that will turn the tide, and there will be a massive airstrike and so forth.
art bell
I read this sort of joke thing about Somalia not very long ago.
I don't know if you heard it, where there was a cruise company that would guarantee, what they'd do is they'd cruise by Somalia fully armed, and you could get a gun, machine gun, or any kind of gun you wanted, and they would guarantee to cruise by the coast of Somalia as many times as it took to get some pirates to attack, and then you could shoot at them.
unidentified
Yeah, I heard that, too.
I didn't realize it was a joke.
I thought it was one of those Oh, seriously.
I remember hearing that, too, and I remember thinking it was one of these extreme tourist things.
art bell
It was funny.
All right.
So International Force ends up attacking Somalia.
That would be prediction number 10, and I thank you for making it.
unidentified
Good night.
art bell
All right.
Good night.
Yeah, it was funny.
It was like you could rent a gun and as much ammo as you wanted.
And, you know, if the pirates didn't attack, then they would turn up some music as loud as they could as they passed the coast of Somalia.
And, you know, they guaranteed an attacker.
You get your money back.
It was kind of funny.
First time caller.
No, not first time.
Wildcard line, you're on the air.
unidentified
Hello.
Yes.
Hello.
art bell
Hi.
unidentified
Heart Bill.
How are you?
art bell
I'm very well.
And, you know, it sounds like you're using a regular corded phone.
unidentified
No, I'm using a cordless phone, actually.
art bell
Yeah, I know, but you're on a regular telephone line, right?
unidentified
Yes.
art bell
Bless you.
unidentified
First of all, Happy New Year to you.
art bell
And to you.
unidentified
One day early.
My prediction is that we will have the biggest one-year drop in the financial markets that will be caused by a default of one or more states going bankrupt, basically.
And I don't know.
That's just what I think.
art bell
California.
unidentified
I think California is the big one, yeah.
So I have a feeling it's going to be caused by an upcoming catastrophe in the state that will be the final straw to break the campbell's back, per se.
But that's what I think.
art bell
It's certainly within the realm of possibility, isn't it?
unidentified
Yeah.
art bell
Is California still issuing little pieces of paper to pay their state employees, or is that finished?
unidentified
No, they're past that, but they're still doing work furlough.
I think they're up to three days a month and promising more to come for state workers.
art bell
Yeah, it's pretty serious.
No doubt about that.
All right.
I've got it, and it is duly recorded as number 11.
unidentified
Okay.
You have a good one.
art bell
Take care.
The whole financial thing is really, really scary.
Now, I think a lot of people have the impression that the financial recession slash depression, whatever it is, is worldwide.
It's not here.
It's not here in the Philippines.
Now, I'm sure there's been some effect, but the banks here are as solid as a rock.
Real estate prices continue to rise here and that sort of thing.
So it's not worldwide.
It depends on the country and the region.
But here in the Philippines, it's relatively stable financially.
In fact, there's GNP growth in the positive direction, not a lot of it, but a little bit in the positive direction as opposed to negative.
So Americans sort of get the impression, I think, that this is worldwide.
And it is affecting a lot of the world, certainly America, North America, Europe, to some degree, South America.
But Asia has not escaped.
Certainly, Japan has its problems.
China is booming.
And a number of other areas in Southeast Asia are doing rather well.
So it's not the entire world.
And sometimes when you're in the U.S., you don't sort of get news from the rest of the world.
Wildcard line, you're on the air.
Good morning.
unidentified
Hello.
Hi.
art bell
Hi.
Where from where dost thou call?
unidentified
We're on the road home to Oklahoma.
Fortville.
art bell
Okay.
And your first name?
unidentified
Is Josie?
art bell
Josie has a prediction for us.
unidentified
My prediction is basically a mass awakening.
Like, or, you know, so everyone's just kind of more accepting of the paranormal and the extraterrestrial and things like that.
art bell
Mass awakening.
Yeah.
But there would have to be an event that would precede that.
Some sort of event that would occur, I think, that would cause people to sort of awaken.
unidentified
Well, I mean, I feel like since we're kind of approaching the Ion Belt, we're slowly becoming more psychically aware of things.
I mean, like, you look at TV shows, like, there's more ghost shows on, conspiracy shows, you know, like Just Event Tour and stuff.
And so I think people are becoming more and more accepting of it.
And they're less like, oh, that's not, that's just BS.
art bell
Okay.
Well, I guess that could do it.
All right.
Thank you very much for the call.
That's prediction number 12, a mass awakening.
And I think that could happen, but I think that it would take more than just more TV shows about this.
I think it would take some really, truly major event.
And I would love to see it myself.
And you never know.
Maybe.
Maybe.
Let's go to the international line, I think.
You're on the air.
Good morning.
Where are you calling from and first name, please?
unidentified
Cornell, B.C. Okay.
My name is Lori.
art bell
Hey, Lori.
unidentified
Hi.
Hi.
My prediction, one of your past guests, just like a few moments ago.
art bell
You mean callers?
unidentified
Yes, yeah.
He was talking about like a few states going down, like major bankruptcy because of a natural discussion.
art bell
At least one state.
unidentified
Right.
I saw the disaster.
Oh.
art bell
Okay, Laurie, what was it?
unidentified
I saw, I dreamt it, a huge tidal wave, like a tsunami.
art bell
Right?
unidentified
Coming over the entire West Coast.
Wow.
art bell
Okay.
The entire West Coast, huh?
unidentified
Yes, from California up to Vancouver.
And I think it's because we are living on the Ring of Fire.
art bell
Yes, you certainly are, as I am here.
unidentified
Yeah.
art bell
I'm on a particularly hot part of the Ring of Fire.
unidentified
You are, so.
Definitely.
art bell
All right.
Well, that's a pretty doomsday-ish kind of prediction.
Where do you think the earthquake would be?
Any idea?
unidentified
Well, it's going to be off the coast.
I think it's going to be off the coast of Lake Oregon.
art bell
Off the coast of Oregon.
That's entirely possible.
All right, Laurie.
That's now recorded as prediction number 13.
A tsunami hits virtually the entire West Coast.
Wow.
All right.
Now we will go to the first time caller line and say, yo, you're on the air.
unidentified
Hello?
art bell
Hello, you're on the air.
First name, please, and where are you?
unidentified
My name is Miguel Carno, and I'm in Salinas, California.
art bell
Salinas, okay.
unidentified
Yeah, my prediction is I actually had a dream that President Obama went on NBC live TV announcing that aliens do exist.
And then they had a feed with an alien and he started talking to the whole world.
art bell
So Obama goes on TV and announces that aliens do exist.
Wow.
That would be quite a story, wouldn't it?
And then to sort of bolster the whole thing, he would have an alien there to, I don't know, yeah, and an alien actually talks to everybody on camera.
unidentified
I actually have that dream.
It was pretty scary.
Was it a scary-looking alien or was it, you know, no, he was kind of scary, green, like a green, normal green alien, but it seemed kind of scary.
And he said that it was going to change the world.
That they were going to change the world.
So, yeah.
art bell
Did the aliens speak English or was there a translator?
unidentified
It was English, but like, no, it was like a weird dialect, but it was translated, actually.
I assume it was translated to every nation, but I was on my living room watching it with my family on NBC.
Like the national.
art bell
Sound like, you know, Schwarzenegger?
unidentified
No, no, no, no, no.
It's more like those real aliens that our people get the fightings, I guess.
Okay.
All right.
Got it.
art bell
That's an interesting one.
unidentified
Okay.
art bell
So the president goes on TV and says aliens really exist.
And then actually produces an alien who's then interviewed.
West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
Good morning.
unidentified
Well, good morning, Art.
What a privilege to be talking with you.
art bell
And to have you on the air.
Your first name and where are you?
unidentified
My name is Marsha, and I'm in California.
art bell
Okay, Marcia.
unidentified
You know, I just believe this really great thing is going to happen in 2010, and we're going to discover a new species.
art bell
Really?
unidentified
Yeah.
art bell
Can you give me some idea of what it would do?
I mean, they discover new species all the time.
unidentified
Yeah, well, this is going to be just one of these things where they're just going to go, oh, my goodness, you know, this is just like too unreal.
This is just like it would be like between, you know, the times that the dinosaurs went down and the man came up.
You know, it's just going to be one of those things, and it's going to be alive.
art bell
Well, it should be alive, to be clear.
unidentified
Yeah, it's not just a fossil.
art bell
Yeah, but I mean, is it going to be an intelligent species?
unidentified
It's going to be something more than just like a one-celled animal.
It's going to be something that they just think to themselves, how did we, you know, how, you know, they're going to say, why didn't we find this before?
You know, it's not going to be on Galopolis.
I mean, it's not going to be on the island where it's all isolated.
It's just going to be something that comes along and it's going to be a positive, wonderful thing for 2010.
Okay.
art bell
That's very interesting.
A dream?
unidentified
I had this last year and I couldn't get in.
Yes.
It just, to me, it was just one of these things where I just, I do a lot of out-of-body work.
But this was one where I was just sitting there and the movies are going on and then I'm thinking to myself, oh my gosh, you know, something is going to happen really Big, and then I thought that.
I didn't see a vision, but I just, it was in one of my times when I was meditating and I was feeling very serene.
art bell
All right, all right, got it.
That's number 15.
A new species will arrive.
Better than one-celled, but apparently not fully intelligent, not threatening to us.
She says it'll be a wonderful event.
Predictions for the year 2010.
That's what we're up to from Manila in Southeast Asia and the Philippines.
I'm Art Bell.
We own the night.
Hi, everybody.
I'm Art Bell.
For George Nori, who is taking the week off, I guess.
I've heard he's taking a week off, and that's nice.
You certainly need it when you do the show every night of the week.
We're doing predictions for 2010.
2010.
Can you believe it already?
2010.
Sarah in Fairbanks, Alaska.
Hey, Sarah, says, hey, Art, I'm going to suggest to the TSA, Transportation Agency, right, that they incorporate medical testing into their full-body scans.
It'd be great to get a mammogram on the way to Mexico.
Of course, you'd probably want to get the results on the return flight.
National security slash Obamacare.
Not bad, Sarah.
All right, reviewing a few more of 2009 predictions.
Number 26, the end of March, unions fall.
Bonk.
Well, they didn't, really, did they?
And again, you can correct me on Fast Blast if I get these wrong.
27, major sports collapse in 2009.
unidentified
Hmm.
art bell
Now there's a Tiger Woods thing, but that's not a major, I mean, it's a major personality in sports collapsing, sort of.
Number 28, Russia flexes military might.
unidentified
Well, not really.
art bell
Not bonk.
Number 29, intention experiments return.
Well, I'm going to tentatively bonk that.
Certainly I haven't done them.
I'm not sure how many George has or hasn't done, nor am I aware of any done worldwide.
30, number 30, high-profile person entire accident.
I'm not sure about that.
Tentative bonk.
There could have been a high-profile person.
It was an entire accident.
It wouldn't be unreasonable, so correct me if I'm wrong.
I'm bonking until I hear otherwise.
31, California shakes in 09.
Eh, kind of a bonk, really.
Nothing major.
Number 32, the year of full disclosure on UFOs.
We get that every year.
Never happens.
Bonk.
Number 33, bloodbath on the Mexican border by April.
Well, there's been a hell of a lot of trouble on the Mexican border, no doubt about that, but not bloodbath type, really.
So kind of a bonk.
34, event disrupts transportation.
Some kind of food trouble.
Okay, well, that's a tentative bonk.
Again, I could be wrong about some of these.
35, earth movement southwest coast of Australia.
I think not.
That's a bonk.
Okay.
And number 36, global leaders want global wage currency.
Oh, my.
No, that's a bonk.
That certainly has not occurred.
Okay.
So we're up to number 36, and so far it's been abysmal with only a couple of dings, really.
So you see, maybe, let's see, how many dings?
One, two, three, three dings out of 36 so far.
Pretty abysmal.
Hopefully we're going to do better this year.
In a moment, the predictive ability of all of you continues.
Once again, back to predictions for 2010.
Please make them from your psychic center, if possible.
Don't just call to get on the air because we're going to be reviewing these next year, so you've got a numbered prediction.
I mean, you really want to make this count if you can, so don't do it lightly.
Let's go to the international line and say, yo, you're on the air.
unidentified
Hello.
art bell
Go ahead.
unidentified
Yes, hello.
Yeah, this is Bob.
art bell
Yes, Bob.
unidentified
Yeah, I'm calling from London, Ontario.
My God, I never thought I'd get through to you.
I don't know how to do it.
I'm a senior handicapped citizen.
I'm sorry for talking so fast, but I'm scared.
art bell
Well, you did it.
So, Bob, this is your chance.
You can make prediction number 66.
unidentified
Oh, my God.
I can't believe it.
You know, I can't believe it.
My dream came true.
I prayed and prayed forever to get through to you, and I didn't know what number to call, so I had to press my cell phone on recorder to get your phone number because I can't remember because I got to say it.
art bell
Okay, Bob, it worked.
It worked.
You're on the air, so go ahead and make your prediction.
unidentified
Well, you're right.
art bell
Let me check.
unidentified
I'm just mixed up.
art bell
Okay, Bob, I need a prediction from you.
unidentified
Okay.
No, I just started going to church, okay?
And I do predict, and I know for a fact in 2010 that a lot of people that are handicapped like me are going to get out of these wheelchairs and walk.
For some reason, I don't know why.
I really don't know why.
art bell
Well, that would be amazing.
unidentified
The pastor put his hand on my forehead and I fell to my knees.
And the Holy Ghost entered my body.
I really believe that my back is going to be healed.
And all the people that are in wheelchairs, if they truly believe they're going to be able to beat Bob.
art bell
A question for you, Bob.
When he put his hand on you and did the healing, did you get up and walk?
unidentified
Yes, I did.
You did?
Yes, I did.
art bell
Well, you certainly can't beat that.
unidentified
I believe this is 2010 millennium.
It's going to happen.
I know it.
art bell
Okay, well, that would bring a lot of people back to religion.
There's no question about it.
I mean, people getting up out of wheelchairs and suddenly walking, it would be a miracle that I think a lot of people worldwide could look at and suddenly begin to believe.
You know, you've got to sometimes wonder in modern times why we don't have a miracle like that, a worldwide miracle.
Wouldn't it have been amazing to be alive?
I guess my greatest wish for time travel, for something that I could do that would be in the paranormal realm, would be to return to the time of Christ, to be able to see some of this for myself, and to see some of the miracles that are documented in the Bible.
And that would make believing so easy.
I'm kind of on the side of science.
I'm not a disbeliever, but I am kind of a scientist.
And for somebody deeply embedded in science, it makes belief, it makes faith a difficult thing.
So to be able to actually go back and see it would be amazing.
Or, barring that, to have a modern worldwide miracle that could suddenly restore faith for so many people would be just absolutely incredible.
All right.
To the first time caller line, you are on the air.
Hello.
unidentified
Hello, Mr. Bill.
art bell
Yes, sir.
Name and place of calling.
unidentified
This is Bill from Apton, New York, upstate New York.
art bell
Okay, Bill.
Prediction number 17 awaits you.
unidentified
Okay, it's a pleasure to talk to you.
My prediction is that sometime in the springtime, which would be between March 21st and June 21st, a tornado outbreak will happen in the United States that will surpass the super outbreak of 1974 of 148 tornadoes in two days.
art bell
You know, it's entirely possible.
It really is.
With global warming and the collision of hot and cold air that we always get in the Midwest in the springtime, starting in the south and then moving up toward the Midwest part of the country.
Yeah, it's entirely possible.
unidentified
They say that an event like that could, it's possible that it could happen every 100 years or so, a 100-year storm, but you never know.
art bell
Well, I sure hope not, but it's entirely possible.
Okay, bud, thanks for the call.
And the prediction, it is recorded as number 17.
That would be actually, I guess, the most modern recording of big tornadoes in history.
So hope not.
But that one really is in the realm of possibility.
All right, let's go to a wildcard line.
Say hi.
You're on the air.
unidentified
Hi, Aaron.
How are you?
art bell
I'm just fine.
Your first name and place?
unidentified
My name is Joe.
I'm calling from Pittsburgh.
Okay.
All right.
I have a prediction for 2010.
art bell
Of course.
unidentified
I always have crazy dreams.
I'm not no expert at dreams.
I've always been a prolific dreamer.
And anytime I go to bed at night with a question, I always get answered.
I was just listening as past coast to coast.
I can't remember who the ghost was, but they were talking about a ghost and how a lot of times ghosts don't realize it when they're dead.
And I went to bed that night wondering, how can you not realize you're dead?
And I got my answer.
I ain't going to get into the details of how that dream happened, but I just know now.
But last night when I went to bed, I said, I want a prediction for 2010.
And I got my dream, and it scared me, and I hope I get a boss on this next year.
art bell
What should I write down?
unidentified
What's that?
art bell
What should I write down?
unidentified
Well, I hate to sound cliche, but I dreamt of a terrorist attack.
But this ain't going to be like with planes or transportation or anything like that.
This is going to be something where, in my dream, I just dreamt quite a large number of terrorists somehow getting into the country.
I don't know how.
And they just go to some populated area, some large crown, and they just start shooting everywhere with automatic guns.
I don't know.
That's what I dreamt last night.
As I said, I hope I get a block on there.
art bell
Well, I hope you do, too.
It's number 18.
I think it's entirely possible.
As I said, I kind of think that what is going to happen is that there are going to be fewer of the very large 9-11 kind of attacks and that we're going to get more of the smaller, you know, mall kind of attacks where you have people with automatic weapons, that sort of thing.
And a lot of people wonder why that actually has not yet occurred.
Well, anyway, that's prediction number 18.
Okay, to our, well, let's make it east of the Rockies.
You're on the air.
Hello.
Turn your radio off, please.
unidentified
Oh, yes.
Turn the radio down.
Yes, I'm calling from Charlottesville, Virginia.
This is Scott, listening to you on WCHV.
Yes, sir.
And I'm prediction number.
art bell
Radio off.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Radio off.
unidentified
Is that better?
art bell
Yeah, just turn it off.
That's better when it's off.
Yes, go ahead.
unidentified
Yes, I have a prediction for you, Art.
And it is that this coming year, a specific reason why the bees are dying off will be disclosed.
And that disclosure will impact certain world markets.
art bell
Do you have any idea why the bees are dying off?
unidentified
I wish I did, but I don't.
I think it's sad.
But I don't have any idea.
art bell
In fact, you know, it's been one of those stories where I haven't heard a whole lot about it lately, have you?
unidentified
Well, no, I haven't heard anything about it at all for the past couple of months.
art bell
I mean, we don't even really know how many bees at this point, percentage-wise, have died.
unidentified
I know that it's impacted a lot of beekeepers in the United States and worldwide.
art bell
No doubt.
Okay, well, that would be fascinating.
Number 19, the reason for the bee die-off is suddenly found.
And I wonder what it is.
I mean, they've looked at this every way but Sunday and haven't really found the reason yet.
So, sure, that would be a very interesting prediction.
So, we are getting some interesting predictions this year.
And every year I do it, I say, please make it from your psychic center.
Not something you want, not some political something or another, but something you really think is going to happen in 2010.
It gives us a better chance of having a good year.
Wildcard line, you're on the air.
Good morning.
unidentified
Hi, Art Bell.
art bell
Hi.
unidentified
Hi.
My name is Archimedeus.
Really?
Yeah, and I believe that there'll be new volcanoes erupting in the United States and around the world.
art bell
Really?
unidentified
Yeah.
art bell
So in the U.S. and world.
unidentified
Huh.
art bell
So the ring of fire gets bigger.
unidentified
Yeah, definitely.
art bell
We've got a pretty good volcano underway here in the Philippines right now.
unidentified
Yeah, there's one going off in San Francisco, too.
art bell
A volcano in San Francisco?
unidentified
San Francisco Bay.
art bell
Oh.
They also found one out in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, actually underwater.
I'm sure you saw some of the pictures of it.
It was amazing.
Just absolutely amazing.
unidentified
And that's just a hint of the sign was to come.
I believe in 2010, we're going to have serious earthquakes due to volcanoes erupting.
art bell
All right.
unidentified
Got it.
art bell
Thank you very much.
Prediction number 20 is what it is.
And that really is entirely possible because the Ring of Fire has become very active.
No question.
Ring of Fire, very, very active.
I've been so tempted to drive down to the thing is about 10 hours of driving to get down to the Mayan volcano.
And I know there are already people going down there, and I don't want to be adding to the congestion and trouble down there, but I'd love to see it.
I've got a high-definition camera, and it's so tempting.
But, you know, I know there's plenty of people sitting down there with high-def cameras waiting for something to happen to capture it.
So I've been tempted.
We almost packed up the car and several times headed toward the Mayan volcano.
First, no, this would be, let's see, what would this be?
This would be West of the Rockies you're on there.
unidentified
Hi.
Hello?
art bell
Yes.
unidentified
Yeah, hi.
Art?
art bell
Yes, sir.
unidentified
Yeah, I don't have these.
Oh, Steve from Albuquerque.
art bell
Yes, Steve.
unidentified
I don't have these very often, but once in a while I do.
I had a dream that one of the Hall of Records that was spoken by Edgar Casey would be found in the Grand Canyon.
art bell
Really?
unidentified
Yes.
It really freaked me out because I do a lot of studying for the Native American tribes.
And one of my theories is the Mayans, the Lakota Sioux, is one of the descendants of some of the Mayan civilizations.
Right.
art bell
So a Hall of Records found in the Grand Canyon.
unidentified
Yeah, and I keep visualizing it's hard to explain because it's not like a video.
You know, you see things.
It just, I just can't explain it.
I just, it's either in a cave or I think they're doing some repair further up the Grand Canyon, you know, up the northern part.
art bell
No, you're doing very well.
It's an extremely interesting prediction.
So thank you very much.
And it would be recorded, is recorded as number 21.
unidentified
Wow.
art bell
Hall of records.
We are getting some rather different sort of predictions this year.
And I'm very much enjoying that.
So thank you.
Let's go to, let's see, where are we going?
Let's go to the wildcard line again.
We have a bunch of those.
So you're on here.
unidentified
I'm on here now.
art bell
You are indeed.
unidentified
Hey, how are you, Art?
art bell
I'm quite well, Sarah.
And yourself?
unidentified
Very good.
I have a prediction for you.
art bell
Good.
unidentified
And I do not want this to be like you think I'm stealing from you, like plagiarism or anything, but I think there's going to be a superstorm, but nothing like your book.
I think it's going to be like a hurricane or a typhoon that doesn't quit.
It's going to just keep going.
art bell
That's an interesting prediction, isn't it?
unidentified
Yeah, I think what's going to happen is it's going to break all the laws of climatology.
Might go over land, regather, continue, cross the equator, something along those lines.
art bell
Well, that would actually break some of the laws of physics.
If, for example, a typhoon or a hurricane hit land, substantial land, and were to keep growing, it would break the laws of physics because a typhoon or a hurricane needs the moisture to continue.
So how would that happen?
unidentified
Well, you've had James McKinney on before in the past, Professor James McKinney.
art bell
Yes.
unidentified
And I kind of believe what he says that it's really not generated by heat over the ocean.
I think it's more to do with energy patterns, you know, from the sun or something like that.
So I got a feeling that there's going to be a monster typhoon, possibly a hurricane.
It's going to weaken a little bit over land, but not stop.
And maybe it'll get stalled in some area and keep going.
art bell
Sure.
Okay, that's another fascinating prediction.
We're having a really good bunch of predictions.
unidentified
All right.
art bell
Thank you very much.
That's number 22.
So a storm misbehaves in some way.
In other words, it just keeps growing, even though it hits land.
That's a fascinating.
These really are pretty good predictions.
Congratulations, particularly on the first hour.
It's gone very well indeed.
We are predicting for the year 2010 immediately ahead from Manila in the Philippines.
I'm Art Bell.
Here I am.
Good day, everybody.
How you doing?
Or good night or afternoon, whatever it is, wherever you are.
I am following the instructions of many fast blasters who want me to correct prediction number 33, a bloodbath on the Mexican border by April.
I'll give that a ding instead of a bonk because I know there was a lot of trouble on the Mexican border.
It continues, in fact.
And enough of you felt that there was enough of it to justify a ding, and therefore number 33 is a ding, improving the average at least a little tiny bit.
Not a very good year last year for this year.
Number 37, stock market under 7,000 and car companies crash.
I'm going to give that a ding.
I don't know that it specifically got below 7,000.
I can't remember what the low was, but what I do recall is that the car companies crashed.
That's fair to say.
Number 38, July 24th will bring world peace.
Sorry, that's a bonk.
Number 39, North America Union declared this year.
Bonk.
No, didn't happen.
Number 40, hotel fire, a high rise with a high loss of life.
That also, thankfully, is a bonk.
And number 41, a blimp will crash.
And as far as I know, that's a bonk.
And again, if I get these wrong, I'll look at number 42.
That's such an easy bonk.
U.S. government overthrown.
That's definitely a bonk.
All right, well, I'll stop there.
In a moment, we will continue with predictions for the year 2010.
And listen to me now.
These need to come from your psychic center, not political hopes, hates, wishes, whatever, but real predictions for the year 2010.
Only one prediction per caller, only one caller for the two days.
No predictions of political assassination, please.
Predictions only on air, and they're numbered.
No email, no fast blast predictions, and it's all done with open lines.
In other words, just call and let it ring.
I will answer, and that way you're not charged for trying, as you would be if you're put on hold.
So that's the deal.
Predictions for 2010.
We continue in a moment.
As I do every year, I would like to register a complaint about cell phones.
Now, while I personally own a cell phone and actually like them, I really want to complain.
And here is my complaint.
They sound like crap.
You know, most cell phones really sound crappy.
And it need not be away.
Here's what I would like to request of the cell phone industry.
As a talk show host and one who takes calls on the air and has to put up with these cell phones, and I understand that the world is converting to cell phone use, I would like to request that the cell phone companies try to lobby the government for more spectrum availability.
Now, let me explain what this means.
Right now, they have so little spectrum available that they make the signal very narrow.
Let's see if I can get you to understand this.
The signal is very narrow.
It's digital, of course, but very narrow.
And it would be possible for cell phone companies with more bandwidth to make the cell phones actually sound good.
Just about as good as a real connected line type telephone.
So since the world truly is converting to cell phone use, let's make more spectrum available and let's have the companies not be so stingy with the amount of bandwidth that they assign to a cell phone call.
Now, if you would do that, they would suddenly sound good.
And I'll just bet you, instead of being able to hear a pin drop, sort of with a fuzzy little, you'd actually hear a pin drop.
So that's my hope and my wish that cell phone companies would get more bandwidth and would use it so that the calls actually sound good.
That would take cooperation of the cell phone companies and the various governments.
And it could be, cell phones could sound good.
So there you have it.
First time caller line, you are on the air.
Hello.
unidentified
Hello.
art bell
First name, if you would, and where you are.
unidentified
Janessa in Modesto.
art bell
In Modesto.
Janessa in Modesto.
Okay, your prediction will be number 23.
unidentified
Terrific.
Do you want to hear it?
art bell
I do.
unidentified
Okay.
I predict the river Ganges is going to slow to almost a trickle, and there'll be vast areas of India where people will be reporting sterility.
art bell
Sterility?
unidentified
Yes.
Unexplained.
Trickle.
Okay.
art bell
By the way, you're a perfect example of a cell phone call in your little anyway.
I do appreciate your call and your prediction, and it is duly recorded as number 23.
Thank you very much.
Let's move to a wildcard line.
You're on the air.
Hi.
unidentified
Hey, how's it going?
How you doing?
art bell
Just fine.
unidentified
I'm using a, well, I'll keep it anonymous.
What kind of phone I'm using?
Okay.
art bell
It is a good phone.
It's not a cell phone, right?
unidentified
It is a cell phone.
I am so surprised you said that.
art bell
Is it really?
unidentified
Yes, it is, sir.
And it's one of the cheapest kind you can buy.
Oh, it is.
It's one of the cheapest kind you can buy.
art bell
It gets five stars, whatever it is.
unidentified
Right on, yeah.
I appreciate that, Art.
All right, thanks for taking my call.
Are you doing?
We're still doing the predictions, right?
art bell
Oh, absolutely, just getting underway, really.
unidentified
All right, I have a prediction that the, I guess I'm not sure if he's a producer, but the show UFO Hunters with Bill Burns will develop a, I guess, a sister show or maybe an additional live segment.
I'm not sure which it is.
And what it'll do is people will call in live like they are doing on your show, Coast to Coast, with their direct UFO stories.
And they will, you know, take them as they hear them and investigate them whether or not they think they should be or not.
But it'll add a new flavor to the show.
And I absolutely love that show.
I do believe they're stepping on toes because they're playing the show differently, not as continuous as they used to.
So I do suspect that they're getting bullied.
But as a result, I think they will get extra funding.
And for 2010, they will have a new segment, a live segment, or possibly just a sister show.
art bell
Okay.
unidentified
All right.
All right.
art bell
Very good prediction.
Number 24.
Well, I don't know if it's very good, but it's interesting.
Develops a new segment, UFO honors.
Well, that was a fairly decent cell phone.
Most of them are not.
I guess some are a little bit better than others, but as a general rule, as I said, they're allocated very little bandwidth, and they're digital and squeezed.
And that's what makes them sound that way.
If they give them more bandwidth, then the competition could begin.
And, you know, the companies could start to say ours sound better.
Not that they, you know, can you hear me now?
Can you hear me now?
Well, yeah, I hear you, but you sound like you're underwater or something.
I guess I'm better not saying anymore.
I've got a grudge against the whole industry.
Hello there.
Wildcard line, you're on the air.
unidentified
Hello, Art.
Happy New Year's.
art bell
Thank you.
unidentified
I have a quick prediction for you.
Okay.
I have a feeling that coming this summer, we're going to have a major earthquake in California.
I believe it will be a 7.3 at least.
And it will create a tsunami that an earlier caller was referring to all the way up the west coast.
Okay.
art bell
And Barbie in California.
unidentified
Yes, sir, I do.
And I'm Miss Cynthia from Winnipeg, Canada.
Very cold.
And I would like to just say happy birthday, Sir Russell.
I love you.
I have listened to you for 15 years, and I can't tell you what a pleasure it is to hear your voice in person.
art bell
Thank you so very much, and it's a pleasure to hear you as well.
That's prediction number 25.
Major earthquake, actually named as a 7.3 in California, certainly possible.
Okay, first time caller line, you're on air.
Hello.
unidentified
I believe it will be a sign.
Hello.
art bell
Extinguish thy radio, please.
unidentified
I'm going to do that right for you.
I know.
Okay.
art bell
And your first name and location.
unidentified
I am in Perump, Nevada.
art bell
Are you right, really?
unidentified
Yes, I am.
I live right down the street from you where we used to live.
But I have a prediction that, well, it's kind of interesting.
It's going to be the rediscovery of the Hollow Earth North Polar Entrance by September of next year.
Okay, and rediscovery of Hollow Earth entrance.
Wow.
North Polar Ocean.
The one that Admiral Byrd flew into in 1947.
art bell
Do you think, you really think the world is hollow?
unidentified
Yes, it is.
Can I tell you why?
art bell
Well, yeah, sure.
I'm curious why.
unidentified
Well, I was stationed at Area 51 when I was in the Air Force for 11 and a half years.
And I read Admiral Byrd's diary, his one supposedly that was missing.
But this one here was the original.
And I read it, and I read the message that was given to him by the Arianians of the hollow earth, of the city of Eden.
And also, when I was back when I was in the Air Force, just before I got out, I was up in the Arctic doing on my last mission flying between 25 and 30,000 feet above the Arctic Circle.
art bell
What was that?
unidentified
And well, it was a prop aircraft.
It was like a 119.
And so we were flying, and we noticed that our instruments started spinning.
And my other airman on this aircraft, they said, come look out this window.
Look at this.
I looked out the port side window and I look down and I see an opening in the Arctic Ocean.
And we see what looks like, and I hesitate in saying it, but we look like two flying lizards, quite large.
art bell
Excuse me, flying lizards?
unidentified
Or reptiles of some sort.
Maybe pterodactyls or whatever.
There was two of them.
And then we saw, something else caught our vision, and we looked and we saw a formation of six glowing disc-shaped craft going in and out of this opening.
So, yeah, we believe we know it's there.
We just have to prove it and rediscover it.
And I know it's going to happen by September of next year.
art bell
Well, I mean, surely the entire Earth is not hollow because, I mean, you know, we've drilled down pretty far.
I mean, not really.
unidentified
Well, yeah, well, the point being is the center of gravity is located 400 miles into the Earth's crust.
Once you get past that point, then the temperature starts dropping as you get toward the center of the inner surface of the Earth.
art bell
That's a fascinating concept.
All right.
It is prediction number 26, rediscovery of the hollow Earth Entrance.
Wouldn't that be something?
That's been another, as you know, I've always been fascinated with holes and the possibility of something that would go into the Earth.
Not that I would do it, mind you, but it is fascinating.
All right.
Onward to, let's make it west of the Rockies, I guess.
Good morning.
You're on the air.
unidentified
Hello, Ark.
Very good to talk to you again.
art bell
And to you as well, sir.
Your first name and where beeth you?
unidentified
Ah, wow.
My name is Brian, and I'm calling from Las Vegas, Nevada.
art bell
Las Vegas.
Very close to Prump, which is a place I maintain my homes there as well.
unidentified
We sure miss having you close by.
art bell
Well, thank you.
unidentified
My prediction is more of a spiritual nature.
We've heard a lot of doom and gloom predictions.
art bell
That's true.
unidentified
But I believe strongly in the year 2010, my prediction is that a lot of people are going to look within to find their spiritual awakening.
And they're not going to be so stressed out about, you know, end of the world.
And they're going to start to see a turnaround of world events because, you know, the last few years people are panicking.
And that's causing a lot of world crises, you know, countries not trusting each other.
But it's going to take...
art bell
It seems to me to have this kind of spiritual awakening, there would have to be some truly incredible event that would cause people to begin to wake up.
Or do you think it just would happen naturally?
unidentified
Well, I'm a strong believer in that our angels, our personal, individual guiding angels, are able to break barriers to reach us.
And usually in times of great distress, we reach more to spiritual things like God, religion, prayer.
And that's when we can hear our angels and they'll be able to communicate much more efficiently with us.
art bell
All right.
Prediction number 27.
Again, a spiritual awakening.
And that is a good prediction.
You know, everybody can hope such a thing would happen.
Let's see.
Let's go, what would this be?
I see them ringing, but I don't have them labeled, so I have to kind of take a shot.
We'll go west of the Rockies and say, top of the morning, you're on the air.
unidentified
Hi, Art.
My God, what a thrill to be able to get through to you.
I just got my radio turned down and I'm ready to go.
art bell
Okay, your name and where are you?
unidentified
I'm Richard, and I'm in Santa Barbara, California.
art bell
Excellent.
I await your prediction.
unidentified
You're going to like this one.
It's basically going to be a real interesting effect on the political system.
There's going to be a group of people that are going to come out of nowhere, and they're basically going to volunteer to take a lie detector test on a regular basis in order to give us peace of mind.
And these people are going to go zooming right into office.
We're going to have basically a whole new government full of honest people by 2012.
And it starts in 2010 with the elections coming up because there's going to be a lot of honest people that are going to give us peace of mind by saying, you know what?
I'll take a lie detector test.
I know they're not 100% reliable, but neither are congressmen and senators.
If 2% to 10% of the population can fool a lie detector, all that means would be that 2% to 10% of the population, I mean, the Congress and the Senate would be able to put one over on us.
I mean, the oath of office, and I got this dream.
Oh, God, it's pretty cool, really.
Pardon?
art bell
I said it's pretty cool, really.
In other words, a group of people come forward, as would-be politicians, and I guess we call them the lie detector party or something, right?
unidentified
The honesty party or something like that.
What they're doing is they're willing to go ahead and demonstrate to us that they're going to be honest, and that will give us peace of mind.
And they'll just walk over the other guys because what are the other guys going to say?
What reason we don't need to take a lie detector test?
Those things are very accurate.
I wish you would do a show about those things.
art bell
What percentage of current politicians, sir, do you think would submit to a lie detector test now?
unidentified
Well, probably maybe like 10.
But the thing is, look at the questions we come out.
art bell
We're at a break point.
I got to go, but I love your idea.
I love your idea.
It's prediction number 28.
Let it come.
The lie detector party.
Oh, hey, I might join that one.
unidentified
Good morning.
art bell
I'm Art Bell.
Here I am.
The Lie Detector Party.
I love it.
That's prediction number 28.
It's been a good bunch of predictions.
I don't think it'll happen, but it's a hell of an idea when you think about the Lie Detector Party.
Ah, that's really good.
All right, we're doing predictions for 2010.
And again, I want these from your psychic center.
All right?
Not political loves, hopes, hates, whatever.
Just something that you psychically really think will happen so that we have a good chance for a good year.
Only one prediction per caller per show, or the two shows involved in doing the predictions for next year.
No predictions of political assassination.
Thank you very much.
Predictions only on the air.
Meaning, no fast blast predictions.
Now, you're welcome to fast blast me.
Go to coast2coastam.com.
You can send a fast blast, but not a prediction.
Only numbered predictions actually taken on the air.
That way, there's no hanky-panky, and it's all open lines, no call screener.
So that's the way we're doing it.
And do it again.
We will in a moment.
All right, back to the prediction business.
Let's see.
First-time caller line, you're on the air.
unidentified
Yes, sir.
One of the military.
art bell
You truly are a first-time caller, right?
You never called before.
unidentified
No.
One of our military personnel in Afghanistan is going to steal a body of one of the terrorists there after a terrorist attack and bury the body in a pigskin.
It's going to become well known, and terrorism is going to drop off.
And another soldier is going to do the same thing.
And it's just going to stop the terrorists dead in their tracks because they won't get their 77 virgins.
And they're going to get the idea because at the turn of the century, the American folks...
Yeah, well, they did the same thing in the Philippines back at the turn of the last century.
And it's going to happen.
And it's going to happen before next summer.
art bell
All right.
Duly recorded is prediction number 29.
unidentified
All right.
art bell
Thank you.
It was 72, right?
72 mergants.
Wildcard line, you're on the air.
unidentified
Good morning.
Yes.
This is Tommy.
art bell
Hi, Tommy.
unidentified
Good morning.
art bell
Okay.
unidentified
Am I on there?
art bell
Oh, you're on the air, Tommy.
There's no screen.
You're on the air.
unidentified
Okay.
All right.
Oh, it's good.
By the way, it's good hearing you again.
I really love to listen to you.
But what I wanted to predict was in 2010, whatever is supposed to happen by that Mayan calendar in 2012 will happen in 2010 because I truly believe that our calendar runs two years behind the Mayan calendar.
Let me see.
And in essence, next year is actually 2012 by the Mayan calendar.
You understand what I'm saying?
art bell
Yeah, sure.
What do you think, just a matter of curiosity, will actually happen as a result of the Mayan calendar date coming up?
unidentified
Well, I'm not exactly sure, but I've heard so many different stories, but the one that really stuck to me, I heard a lady speaking on you guys' show, and she said it was going to be a dimensional shift.
In other words, when the Earth supposedly have a polar shift, it was actually going to be a dimensional shift.
And the people, all of the, per se, good people were going to, you know, that were pure in heart and everything, they're going to transfer over to the new earth.
And the people that's evil and bad and warmongers and stuff like that, they were going to remain here and suffer the wrath of God.
art bell
Let me ask you a quick question, just requiring a guess from you.
It sounds an awful lot like a rapture, sort of a dimensional rapture.
So what percent of the people do you think would remain here in the war-ravaged world?
unidentified
Probably about, I would say about 85%.
art bell
85%.
So only 15% going to the new dimension.
All right, I've got it.
Prediction number 30, a rapture-like prediction.
2012 actually occurs in 2010, and all the good people, at least 15%, go on to the new dimensional setup on Earth.
International Line, you're on here.
Hello.
unidentified
Hello, Art.
How you doing?
art bell
I'm fine, sir.
unidentified
I have a prediction.
I'm from Costa Mesa.
My name is Vernon.
Okay.
And I have a prediction for volcanoes in the Mojave Desert.
It's going to erupt between September, October, and November of 2010.
art bell
Any idea where in the Mojave Desert?
unidentified
I think it's going to be that one that's off the Interstate 40.
And boy.
art bell
Boy.
That would surprise a lot of people.
unidentified
I've been noticing a lot of earthquakes in that area on my Seismo watch on the computer.
And I just have a feeling that it's a waking up.
art bell
Boy, that would be something.
All right.
Prediction number 31, volcano in the Mojave Desert would surprise an awful lot of people, but you never know.
I've got to say, and I will say again, we're getting a lot of very, very interesting predictions for the year 2010.
Really is kind of unusual this year.
A little bit different than it's been.
So you guys are being good.
Wildcart line, you're on the air.
unidentified
Hello?
Hi.
art bell
Hi.
Extinguish your radio.
Give us your first name and tell us where you're calling from.
unidentified
My name is Leonard Osborne or my name is Leonard.
art bell
Leonard?
Where are you, Leonard?
unidentified
I am in Eugene, Oregon.
art bell
Okie-dokie.
And you have a prediction, no doubt, for the coming year?
unidentified
A prediction?
Yeah, I hope so.
I don't, yeah.
art bell
You don't, you know?
unidentified
No, I don't.
I thought this was the wildcard line.
art bell
It is, yes.
unidentified
Yeah, so I was under the assumption, not assumption, but I was under the information that this, the impression that this was just a wildcard line I could call in.
I really just have a question.
You sound like Ardel.
art bell
Oh, well, really?
unidentified
You do?
art bell
Yeah, well, there's a reason for that.
And anyway, you have a question only.
unidentified
I do.
Yeah.
art bell
I do.
unidentified
What's your question?
I'm 26 years old right now.
art bell
That's a statement.
unidentified
I do.
Okay.
I'm 26 years old right now.
I had an experience when I was seven years old while my sister had a paper out, okay?
Yeah.
And I never questioned it until last year.
I'm not lying.
I've heard a lot of stuff on this show.
art bell
I don't think anyone.
unidentified
Okay.
Well, if I heard this before this year.
art bell
Wait a minute.
See, this is a prediction show.
unidentified
I know.
I've sent you an email just trying to get help before, and I never got a response.
And I just contacted a counselor of mine that I used to have when I was really young, and I haven't heard back from him since.
art bell
Did you insult him or something?
unidentified
What's that?
No, absolutely not.
I'm not that type of individual.
And if I did, I would apologize for it.
art bell
I see.
Well, listen, I appreciate your call, but you're calling during a prediction show, and we're not taking...
So we'll just move on.
First time caller line, you are on the air.
Good morning.
unidentified
Oh, wow.
I'm on already?
art bell
You're on the air, yes.
unidentified
Wow, this is amazing.
I can't believe I'm talking to you.
Okay, let me turn to my radio.
Okay, my prediction is that I think within a few weeks of the new year that there's going to be chaos in the United States.
I think there's going to be, I'm predicting a major either terrorist or war is going to unfold, and oil is going to go up, and it's going to totally shut down our economy, and it's going to happen really quickly within the next month.
art bell
Wow.
That's pretty severe.
So terrorist action or possibly war.
Who would you imagine we would have the war with?
unidentified
Well, you know, that one caller you had that said a bunch of terrorist activities within the United States, like shooting, I believe that is a possibility.
I think it's going to happen when we attack Iran or when Israel hits Iran.
This is when it's all going to start unraveling.
art bell
Certainly is possible.
All right, all right.
Chaos in the U.S. and this in the first weeks of the new year and possibly some sort of war, albeit the ongoing terrorist war.
You know, I do a lot of flying, and I've been to Guam, you know, a couple times the last few months, that kind of thing.
And now that we've had Fancy Pants Bomber, it's just, it's getting so miserable to fly.
It's hard to imagine what they can do next.
I guess the full body scan is going to be what's next.
But I don't know.
Any more of this, and there's going to be a full cavity search or something before you can fly in a plane.
Anybody remember the old days?
It was so cool.
Yeah, you went through one metal detector, you know, and that maybe was it.
And flying was fun.
Now, that's what the terrorists have done.
They've absolutely ruined.
They've ruined flying.
They've just ruined it.
It's not fun anymore.
And what's the new regulation that you can't get out of your seats last hour of the flight or something?
And they're going to have the full body scans.
And it's hard to imagine what else they can do.
unidentified
Stupid terrorists.
art bell
Well, Carline, you're on the air.
unidentified
Hi.
Hi, this is O'Rion from Indiana.
Yes.
My prediction is that Planet X will become completely visible for all to see, and that will maybe be the thing that brings the enlightenment to everybody.
art bell
People have been predicting Planet X for so long now.
unidentified
But I think it might coordinate with the Hopie Elders coming out and explaining some of it.
art bell
Well, that might.
You never know.
So Planet X becomes visible, and that sort of wakes everybody up.
unidentified
Yep.
art bell
Okay, well, we'll certainly do that.
Imagine looking up, and instead of seeing the sun or the moon, depending on the time of day, you see this giant looming planet.
I guess by the time you saw it, it would be so affecting the orbit and so much more of the Earth that it would be pretty much end times anyway.
Okay, let's go east of the Rockies and say you're on the air.
unidentified
Hey, Art.
art bell
Hey.
unidentified
You're not going to like this one.
art bell
Well, there's a lot of them I don't like, but, you know, I live with it.
unidentified
I'm going to have to predict that in the year 2010, we're going to find out that the terrorists and the CIA, well, all the government officials, we're going to all be working together for the New World Order.
art bell
The terrorists and CIA work together.
unidentified
Working together.
art bell
That would be a backbreaker for the government now, wouldn't it?
unidentified
Well, I don't know so much about that because the government is all into this.
That's going to give them the reason for the martial law.
That's the only reason we're having the terrorist attacks that we have now.
art bell
Is that martial law with the suspension of habeas corpus and all the rest of it?
unidentified
Right.
art bell
All right.
Pretty awful prediction.
Number 34, Terrorists and the CIA are seen working together, and we have that new world order.
Prediction number 34.
Okay, let's see.
That was East.
Let's go west of the Rockies.
You're on the air.
Good morning.
unidentified
Hi.
My name is Melanie.
I'm from Las Vegas, and I have a prediction.
Hey, so you know how there's more gay people right now, homosexual people right now, than are admitting it?
Yeah.
art bell
Yeah, I'm sure.
unidentified
Okay, well, I think that within the next couple months, like March or April, there's going to be a lot more people coming out, right?
Like, and it's huge about, like, well, this is what I think, like, like two-thirds of the population, at least in America.
And because of it.
art bell
Wait a minute.
Two-thirds of the population?
unidentified
I think, I don't know if that's what I'm getting.
I don't think it's going to be that much, but that's what I'm getting.
art bell
That would be incredible.
I mean, even the biggest estimates think only about 15%, I believe, right?
unidentified
Yeah, that's what I thought.
I don't know.
But I don't know how viable that is, but what I do think is that however many people start coming out, it'll be a big deal.
And because of this, there's going to be a lot, like a huge resurgence in violence towards homosexuals, not just in the South, but yeah.
Like, I think, like, it's going to be like a ton of people getting hurt.
I am.
But I'm bisexual, but yeah.
art bell
Okay.
You know what shocked me, and it really does shock me, that they now are allowing same-sex marriages in Mexico City, and that's just amazing.
I mean, that's a predominantly Catholic country, and for them to have done that just blew me away.
unidentified
Yeah, and like, that's why, like, I wouldn't think that this would happen because it seems like everything's becoming so much more accepting, but I think that it won't be the government necessarily that'll be anti-gay or whatever.
It's going to be, like, like the population, the masses.
You know?
art bell
Yeah, all right.
Very interesting prediction.
We'll see if it comes true.
unidentified
Thank you.
art bell
Right, number 35.
I'll tell you, here in the Philippines, which I believe is 87% Catholic, it's a very, very Catholic country, the number of gay people here seems to be astronomical.
There are so many gays here in the Philippines.
And what is amazing, and I'm scratching my head over it, is that they are accepted without the blink of an eye.
Now, how does that happen in such a Catholic country?
I just, I don't get it.
This is a young country that I'm in.
The average age here, I think, is about 22 years old.
That's a nationwide average.
So it's a very young country.
And there are, or there seem to be, an astronomical number of gay people here, which is...
Nobody blinks an eye here.
You don't hear of violence against gays here.
You don't hear of any problem whatsoever.
It's a head scratcher.
Okay, to the wild Carteline, you're on the air.
Good morning.
unidentified
Cart, this is Simon.
Happy New Year to you.
art bell
Hey, Simon.
unidentified
And bless your Asia, and I bet not to make a prediction, but I think Asia is going to be a swimmer, and God bless your kitties.
art bell
Oh, well, we've got a big Olympic-sized swimming pool here and a children's pool, and she's down in it just about every day.
unidentified
She's such a good one.
She'll be doing twisters.
She'll be doing twisters.
art bell
Let me tell you, before she left today, she came in here and gave me a kiss and said, good luck, Daddy.
unidentified
All right.
Here's my prediction, and I'm going to ask you to have it as a rolling because it might not be this year, but it's going to happen.
Boston is going to get hit with the big one, the big hurricane.
And what will have to happen, it's got to be the Yankees, the Patriots, and the Red Sox will all be in Boston when this hits.
This could be worse than Katrina, but I dreamt, and I don't think the loss of life will be too bad, go figure, but it will happen.
art bell
Boston hit by a big hurricane.
unidentified
What's that?
art bell
Boston hit by a big hurricane.
unidentified
Boston gets the big hurricane, probably with a girl's name.
And if you can have it as a roly, I hope it's bonk, bonk, bonk each year, but it's going to come, and it'll have to be the perfect storm with the Yankees, the Red Sox, and the Patriots in Boston.
art bell
Got it.
All right.
Prediction number 36.
Auto baseball going on, and Boston gets hit by a big hurricane.
Interesting.
unidentified
Wow.
art bell
Wildcard, another wildcard line.
You're on the air.
Good morning.
unidentified
Hi, this is Ian calling from One Saws New York.
Okay.
I called a couple years ago, and you really got me.
I asked you if you smoked on there, and you were like, what's your social security number and stuff?
But my prediction is that Obama is going to look to use hemp as an industry and be more lenient on that to create jobs in the United States.
art bell
All right.
So the president moves toward the legalization nationwide, I guess, of marijuana, an industry that would bring half a trillion dollars to the economy.
I'm Art Bell.
That's where I am, all right.
Manila, Philippines, other side of the world.
From most of you, it is and continues to be an absolutely amazing feat that Premier Radio is able to accomplish to bring, to allow me to sit here on the other side of the world and do a long-form talk show.
It's just, it's astounding.
Really, truly astounding.
All right, let's look at a few more of the predictions made last year for this year.
Number 43, George Norrie marries this year.
And that's a bonk.
That's a bonk, Although the year's not quite done yet.
You never know.
Number 44: In Phoenix, a rain gauge measures 8 tenths of an inch or more five times during that year.
You know, I have no way of knowing whether that's true or not.
I'm going to just put a question mark by that.
Maybe somebody in Phoenix can tell me.
Number 45, artificial manipulation of oil prices.
Well, you know, I'm going to give that a ding.
I think that that would be a whole nother show, but I'm going to give it a ding.
Number 46, auto production cuts by one half.
Auto production cuts by one half.
I'm going to ding that.
In the U.S., I believe that might be true.
Certainly might be true.
Number 47, NAFTA and GATT changes by Obama.
I don't think that there have been any major changes yet by the Obama administration in that area, so we'll give that a bonk.
Number 48, Obama brings peace to the Middle East.
That's an easy bonk.
Nobody does that.
Number 49, America turns its back on Israel.
Hmm.
No, I'm going to give that a bonk as well.
Number 50, all currency loses value.
That's going to be a bonk as well.
That certainly has not happened.
And I guess one more, I'll take one more.
Terrorism in Northern Europe within one month.
That means within a month of the new year.
And I think that might be a ding, tentative ding.
Now, if I'm wrong on these, I'm just trying my best to recall.
But I think that's a tentative ding.
All right.
In a moment, we'll return to predictions for the year 2010, reminding you, folks, that you only get one prediction for both shows, so place it very, very carefully.
No predictions of political assassination predictions only on the air.
Numbered predictions that we will review next year.
Only ones that are done right here on the air during our open line, no screener type show.
Coming right up.
Once again, predictions for the year 2010, directly now ahead.
On the international line, you're on the air.
Good morning.
unidentified
Hello, right on.
I'm glad I actually got through.
I'm calling from the Yukon.
art bell
From the Yukon territory.
No problem.
Yeah, I always.
unidentified
I'm not going to be able to do with any of the other numbers.
art bell
Yeah, I've been there.
It's beautiful.
It's a gorgeous place.
unidentified
Yes.
I was calling for your prophecy section.
art bell
Yes.
Yes.
Prophecy, prediction.
unidentified
Yes.
Yes.
Are we on the air?
art bell
I hope so.
unidentified
Oh, wonderful.
art bell
Everywhere, I guess.
Your KFI in Los Angeles is doing maintenance, so you're not on the air there, but everywhere else.
unidentified
Okay, well, okay, somebody called in earlier about the Israel thing.
Yes.
I had a dream about that just before December.
And I had a dream about it that Israel was going to bomb Iran.
This isn't my prediction, but I was polluting what that lady said.
art bell
I see.
Okay, that's not your prediction, though.
unidentified
No, it's not my prediction, but I had a dream exactly that, and it was going to happen before the winter games.
art bell
Okay, well, that's kind of a way of squeezing in two predictions, not fair.
unidentified
No, it's so creepy.
No, my prediction is about Yellowstone.
art bell
Oh, okay.
unidentified
Yeah, okay.
You know the sea lions down in San Francisco, how they all just disappeared after Thanksgiving?
Yeah.
That's a prelude to Yellowstone.
art bell
Yellowstone explodes?
unidentified
I don't know how bad it's going to be, but I had a dream about it before.
art bell
It would be very bad.
unidentified
Yes, it would be very bad.
And in my dream, hundreds of thousands had died and hundreds of thousands were fleeing.
art bell
That's bad.
unidentified
It was bad.
And Sumatra was a prelude to that as well because the more major earthquakes happening in Sumatra.
art bell
Well, you know, it's certainly fair to say that the Ring of Fire is extremely active right now.
unidentified
And I'm awfully worried about you there, Art.
Why?
art bell
Because of the.
I'm not anywhere near Yellowstone.
unidentified
No, I know, but because of the stuff that's happening in Indonesia.
art bell
Well, you know, the earthquakes that occur in Indonesia, we never feel them here.
unidentified
Yeah, I know, but the possible tsunamis and stuff, I was more worried about.
art bell
You know, everywhere is dangerous, huh?
unidentified
Yes, it's true.
art bell
It really is.
All right, Yellowstone.
unidentified
Yeah, it will be prelated by an earthquake in Mexico, and it will go up the Cascade Mountain Range, and that's how it's going to hit Yellowstone.
art bell
That's a pretty dismal prediction.
unidentified
Yeah.
art bell
But, okay, it's recorded.
unidentified
Okay.
art bell
All right.
Thank you very much for the call, and take care.
Yukon Territory.
Gorgeous, gorgeous country in the summer.
First time caller line, you're on the air.
Hello.
unidentified
Hello, Art Bill.
Happy New Year.
art bell
And to you as well, Sarah.
Where are you, and what's your first name?
unidentified
This is Jay, and I'm calling from Honolulu.
art bell
Ah, okay.
unidentified
Halfway to where you are.
art bell
Well, not quite half.
I don't think it's halfway, but it's halfway from somewhere.
unidentified
Art, I have a prediction for 2010, which relates to a business that I'm starting here in Honolulu.
art bell
This cannot turn into a plug, sir.
unidentified
No, no, no, no, it won't be a plug.
It's about a new industry.
Yes?
We're doing pest control with all natural solutions.
No non-toxic chemicals.
art bell
And so what's your prediction?
unidentified
So the prediction is that 35% of pest control operators in the United States will use non-toxic pest control solutions in their businesses by the end of 2010.
Pest control businesses use non-toxic.
Okay.
art bell
All right.
Well, I guess you could use natural predators.
I don't know if people go for that, though.
unidentified
Well, that's not too far from what we're doing.
art bell
Okay, thank you very much.
Yeah, bugs to eat bugs.
Something like that.
unidentified
I don't know how people would take to that, though.
art bell
Here, let me release all these things.
They'll take care of those things.
And then we'll have to come back and put some of these things in there and take care of those things once they're fatter.
What a world.
Wildcard line, you're on the air.
Good morning.
unidentified
Good morning.
How are you?
art bell
I'm just spiffy, sir.
Where are you calling from, and what's your first name?
unidentified
Steve in Lexton, Kentucky.
art bell
Okay, Steve, you have a prediction for the coming year.
unidentified
I do.
I've got more of a kind of a positive prediction.
I'm predicting.
Oh, no.
art bell
A positive prediction.
I don't know if we can handle it.
All right, let's hear it.
unidentified
Well, I'm going to predict that there'll be an announcement of some sort of nanotechnology that is improving the lives of paralysis victims.
art bell
Okay, a nanotech discovery.
unidentified
Yes.
art bell
Any idea what area?
unidentified
Gosh, I'm not sure, but just I think it's going to be in the realm of affecting people that have some sort of paralysis.
And maybe I don't know if it's going to be able to re-stimulate the nervous system or help nervous system regrow, but something that's going to be able to help paralysis people get movement back.
art bell
Well, the nanotech world certainly does offer that in the future someday.
That's number 40, sir.
Thank you very much for the call.
Nanotechnology could certainly do that, I suppose.
It could be, once it matures, it could heal a spine.
It could do all kinds of things.
It's a lot of promise, but it's, I think, more in the future than 2010 offers.
We'll see.
First time caller line, you're on the air.
Good morning.
unidentified
Hi, is this Art?
It is.
Great.
Well, my prediction is I think we are going to go to another financial currency like the American that a lot of them have been talking about.
art bell
Another currency.
What do you think will happen to the dollar?
unidentified
I think it's going to crash.
I think they're printing too much of it.
And I think there's only one thing that can happen, and that's it's going to lose the value.
But I don't think that they're going to let the whole thing crash.
I think they're going to devise another method, which I think has to be another currency.
art bell
Well, I share your concern for the Dollar.
You know, they've printed so much money that nothing good can come of it that I can see.
But, you know, if I had been in their place, I don't know what else they could have done.
I think if they hadn't done it, if they hadn't gone ahead and printed all this currency and done all this bailing, or at least a lot of the bailing, that we would have had a severe depression.
unidentified
Yeah, I agree.
art bell
I think that's so I kind of think all they did was buy time, though, so I'm on the same page with you.
Thank you very much for the call.
Number 41.
That is what I think, that the powers that be really had no choice.
They had to do these bailouts, obnoxious as it was, and they had to do – but all they did was buy time.
They bought time, and that will make some of you nervous, and you should be.
I think that there is another financial problem coming as a result of what's been printed.
I don't know how deep and how big it will be.
be, whether it'll be as she imagines in prediction number 41, but I do think there are big problems ahead in that area.
West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
Good morning.
unidentified
Art, how you doing?
art bell
I'm doing okay, sir.
Where are you, and what is your first name?
unidentified
My name is Phil, and I'm from San Diego, California, listening to you on COGO 600.
art bell
Yes, sir.
unidentified
Art, I've got a prediction for you.
I know it's probably been predicted maybe a year ago, a couple of years ago.
I just have this feeling this time.
It came to me, and everything seems to be falling into place.
The San Diego Chargers will go all the way this year, and they will win the Super Bowl.
art bell
All right.
unidentified
I know you're a Chargers fan because you've always kept track of them, and they've always, every last few years, they always just get so far, and they just don't do it.
And if you've been watching Phillip Rivers, Phillip Rivers has just been fantastic this year.
art bell
All right.
San Diego Chargers go all the way.
Prediction number 42.
May it be so.
Thank you for the call, sir.
unidentified
Happy New Year, sir.
art bell
All right, very happy New Year to you as well.
This is, you know, it's 31st here, evening of the 31st.
It's, what is it, about 22 minutes past 5 o'clock in the afternoon.
We're going to have fireworks at midnight tonight.
That's how it's done here.
Everything is done at midnight.
So the new year is just hours away here.
Okay, let's see.
Let's go to our East of the Rockies.
East line or on here.
unidentified
Hello.
Hi, hello.
art bell
Hi.
It is indeed.
unidentified
Oh, you're amazing.
I'm a huge fan.
I'm Heather from St. Paul, Minnesota.
Say, I was, it's funny.
I was listening to the show earlier and I kind of randomly thought if I had a prediction, what would it be?
And it popped into my head, San Francisco earthquake, Northern California.
And then you had a caller that was talking about a tsunami that would wipe out the West Coast.
art bell
That's right.
unidentified
Yeah, and I've been trying to get a hold of you for a while now, but it's great to talk to you.
You're awesome.
I'm a huge fan.
art bell
Oh, thank you.
unidentified
And the Obamas got a Portuguese water dog.
art bell
A Portuguese water dog?
unidentified
Yeah, it's kind of an obscure breed, but one of the Obama daughters is allergic to dogs.
And it's a breed like a poodle.
They don't shed a lot, so people with allergies tend to be able to tolerate them a little bit better.
art bell
Well, I guess if you're in the White House, you have to have a first dog.
unidentified
Definitely.
Definitely.
We're a Scotty family.
My family is.
So it's kind of cool.
We kind of followed the Bush Scotty or Scotties.
So, yeah, we're kind of a dog family, so we're always following that.
All right.
art bell
All right.
Well, we're a cat family.
Why not a first cat someday?
A first cat.
We have three cats presently that have traveled the world, I think, twice fully around.
Yeti, Abby, and Dolly.
Yeti and Abby.
Yeti is getting to be an old fellow now, but still spry as can be.
Abby is doing very, very well.
And Dolly, who is our little Filipina cat, is, despite the fact that she's been around the world twice, boy is she active.
She's really something.
unidentified
So we keep our three kitties here.
art bell
First time, not first time.
Wildcard line, you're on the air.
Hello.
unidentified
Hi, Art.
Thanks for joining my call and Happy New Year.
art bell
Very same to you.
unidentified
I have a prediction for you.
I've been, I know you often ask where they come from.
I dream very vividly, and I've been seeing a major blackout in a city that feels like Las Vegas to me.
Like there's a major power blackout like there was in New York a couple of years ago that covered a stretch of the country.
So I'm going to say my prediction is for a power blackout, a major power blackout like that in the southwest part of the U.S. But I think what I've noticed is it's entirely possible.
art bell
I mean, Las Vegas is, you know, if you watch catastrophe movies and stuff like that, war movies, Las Vegas is always the target.
Have you ever noticed that?
unidentified
It is.
It is.
Well, it's pretty and shiny and nice to film, isn't it?
art bell
I guess, yeah.
unidentified
Yeah.
Well, I don't know.
So I saw that, but I figured I thought it was a mixed bag because I think it's going to be like a long power blackout that might last like days and cause a lot of problems and chaos.
But I think from that, we're going to realize that we need to pay more attention to what's going on with our electric grid.
art bell
Well, we do.
A lot of the electric infrastructure in the United States now is very, very old.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah.
So that's what I saw, and I thought I'd call it in, and Happy New Year.
And again, thanks for taking my call.
art bell
Take care, sir.
Very interesting prediction.
A major blackout hits Las Vegas.
Well, I'll tell you what would happen.
A lot of the casinos, of course, have generators, and they'd fire them up, and a lot of the people sitting playing would barely even notice what's going on.
On the international line, you are on air.
Hello.
unidentified
Oh, hi, Art.
You might remember for the years I claimed a big streak, 10-0, 11-0, 12-0, to name me a few.
I said an actress murdered, a wrestling tragedy, Chris Benoit, race riots, and I said it'll be a year for school shootings.
This year, my streak ended, I believe, but I wanted to kind of plead my case.
It was number 13.
art bell
Year of the murders or whatever?
unidentified
Yes.
art bell
You know, you can plead all you want, but homicides in the U.S. went down.
unidentified
Okay, because I was just figuring, like, you know, this.
art bell
Change your case, but, you know.
unidentified
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
I was just figuring with the 500 in Chicago, you know, like 500 students?
And I'm thinking, how could it go down?
And seven police officers shot within a month in Seattle?
art bell
It went down, sir.
unidentified
Yeah.
Okay.
My prediction, oh, by the way, this is Keith in Hamilton, Ontario.
Yes.
My prediction, a major athlete, like current athlete right now, is going to pass away of very unseen circumstances.
An athlete right now playing.
Okay.
art bell
All right.
Got it.
Let's see how your streak, well, of course, your streak is over, but perhaps you can reestablish it.
It's prediction time for the year 2010.
And these have been some very, very intriguing predictions thus far.
If you've not managed to get yours in, hang in there because we're doing another show tomorrow night, so there'll be another opportunity from Manila in the Philippines, Southeast Asia.
I'm Art Bell.
We'll be right back.
We're doing the annual prediction show tonight and tomorrow night.
So if you have a prediction for the year 2010, a well-thought-out psychic prediction, we want to hear from you.
And by the way, I've got email.
If you'd like to email me, I do my best to answer emails, but getting to them all is very, very difficult.
I've really been putting some effort into it.
But if you want to email me, I'm Art Bell, A-R-T-B-E-L-L at mindspring.com.
That's A-R-T-B-E-L-L at MindSpring, M-I-N-D-S-P-R-I-N-G.com.
More predictions for the year just ahead in a moment.
I guess there's a group of people calling themselves the goons listening who want to shout out.
I'm sorry, we can't do that kind of thing because then everybody would want it.
It's just the way it is.
We're doing predictions for the year 2010, and this is your opportunity, but not your last opportunity, because we'll be back tomorrow night to finish it up.
And then, of course, it becomes sealed again in the Dole Family Vault.
Wildcard line, you're on the air.
Good morning.
unidentified
Hey, good morning, Art.
art bell
Howdy.
unidentified
This is Mitch from beautiful Windsor, California.
art bell
Yes, sir.
unidentified
One, Quebec.
We've been with you on the air.
You've been teasing us with that antenna.
When are you going to get your antenna up there, Art?
art bell
Well, it's a long story, but they wanted all kinds of things done here.
You know, I live in a really good, pretty high-class condominium thing here in Manila, and they really wanted a lot done.
So I hired a professional engineer, and long story short, it'll be done pretty soon.
unidentified
Wow.
I'll tell you, the 3830 old crew would love to hear you back here on the West Coast.
art bell
We're listening.
Okay.
All right.
Do you have a prediction?
unidentified
I absolutely do.
I actually have two.
I know you only have time for one.
It'll go less depressing.
Let's go with my prediction within, and unfortunately, this could be within the next two months.
A 5.0 earthquake or better in the San Francisco Bay Area.
art bell
That's not too bad.
A 5 earthquake is something, you know, you feel it and you go, wow, an earthquake, but it's not going to knock everything down.
unidentified
Well, that's true.
But the thing is, well, I guess the biggest thing is that anything above a 3.5 around here, I would say anything above 4.0, we're going to feel.
Anything below that, we don't really feel.
We really don't.
It's by the popular belief that it takes a pretty good rumble here to alert it.
We have hundreds of them a day.
But anyway, yeah, that's pretty much it, Art.
art bell
Okay, all right.
Well, it's recorded, and I think the odds, you know, of a 5.0 or better are really good in the San Francisco area.
We have very few earthquakes here.
I suppose a big one is certainly possible.
But in all the time I've been here, I can only say that I've felt two, I think, and they were very minor.
It's sort of one of those things where you say, hey, didn't I get enough sleep or something like that?
And, you know, you're swaying a little bit, but that's about it.
You would think we'd have many more here, being as close as we are to the center of so many earthquakes, but no.
Wildcard line, you're on the air.
unidentified
Hello.
Hi, Art.
art bell
Yes, hi.
unidentified
How are you doing?
art bell
Very well.
Your first name, and you, and where are you?
unidentified
My name is Pete, and I'm from Denver, North Carolina.
art bell
Okay, Pete, what do you think is going to happen in 2010?
unidentified
Well, my prediction in 2010 will be a great year, and the stock market will get to a new tenure high of $14.50.
art bell
Wow.
$14,500?
unidentified
$1,000?
Yeah, $14,500, correct.
art bell
Wow.
What's going to take it so high?
unidentified
It's just everything's going to fall into place.
It's just the way it is.
The reason I know is because I know the secret.
If you know what the secret is, you'll know what I mean.
art bell
No, what's the secret?
unidentified
Did you ever read the book, The Secret?
art bell
No.
unidentified
Oh.
You'll have to read the book, The Secret, and then you will know.
art bell
$14,500.
Oh, my God.
unidentified
Correct.
art bell
With current financial conditions, that's hard to imagine.
So that's a pretty wild prediction, okay?
unidentified
Well, not really.
I've been unemployed for seven and a half years, and the stock market has kept me going.
I never had to file for unemployment.
I couldn't because I make too much money.
art bell
The secret.
Okay, well, I'll look for that book.
Number 47, the market goes to 14.5.
First time caller line, you're on the air.
Hello.
unidentified
Good morning.
art bell
Good morning.
unidentified
My name is Baker, B-A-K-K-E-R, and I'm calling from Toronto, Canada.
art bell
Okay.
unidentified
And my prediction for 2010 is that in the wake of the recent terror attacks, it will force the government to tip its hands and reveal what has up until now been a top-secret form of transportation.
I'm not sure if it'll be teleportation or just a smaller form of really fast transportation that will basically eliminate the need for commercial airline passengers.
art bell
Wow.
That would be so cool.
unidentified
I think it would be too.
And I really do.
art bell
Kind of like Jumper, right?
unidentified
Exactly.
art bell
Yeah, that'd be great.
unidentified
Okay.
art bell
Okay, I got it.
And I really hope you're right.
I kind of have doubts, but I hope you're right.
unidentified
Hope so, too.
Thank you very much.
And the best of the new year to you.
art bell
And to you, sir.
Take care.
Oh, well, that would be so cool.
I watched Jumper, and I loved it.
Actually, you know, I read the book first, and I really enjoyed that.
And then the movie, wouldn't that be neat?
I mean, just like that, and you're wherever you want to be, or if you've got a picture of it or whatever, you can remember, and then you're there, top of the Edifle Tower.
Man.
First time caller line, you're on the air.
Good morning.
unidentified
Hi, is this Art Bell?
art bell
It is, yes.
unidentified
I am Ian from Gainesville, Gainesville, Florida.
Okay.
I heard you're doing the prediction show tonight.
art bell
Absolutely true, yes.
unidentified
Okay, well, my prediction for 2010 is that as the geovibrational vibrations of our planet, the electromagnetic vibrations that everything that has matter in it puts out, as it increases, the harmonic vibrations of people themselves are going to increase along with it because we're all part of that field.
We live within it.
We are an integral part.
We all flow together.
And as that increases, the latent abilities that people have are going to start coming out, such as psychic abilities.
People are going to start being more open to the influences around them and things going on.
And I'm not quite saying that it's going to come out in the open.
Not everybody's going to be comfortable with what they're going through.
There's going to be people whose inner vibrations aren't quite up to the correct level.
But as most of us start getting up there, we're going to start seeing us as a species start to come around that corner.
art bell
So good vibes for 2010.
unidentified
That's what I'm saying.
art bell
Okay.
All right.
Well, I've got it down.
It's kind of like the awakening thing.
And every year we get that prediction in various forms, and it is yet to come true.
Wildcard line, you're on the air.
Good morning.
unidentified
Good morning.
It's Bob from North Hollywood, California.
art bell
Hello, Bob.
unidentified
Also known as Robert at times.
art bell
You know, I'm curious.
I think KFI is like off the air right now.
unidentified
KFI is dead.
art bell
Well, it's not.
unidentified
I'm listening to you on 600 and 770.
Luckily, my car stereo, my radio picks up fairly decently.
art bell
Oh, okay.
All right.
No, they're just off the air for maintenance.
unidentified
They'll be back.
I thought it was some conspiracy.
I was thinking, God, the greatest part of the year, Coast to Coast, and they shut it off.
Well, everybody waits for prediction night.
I mean, everybody loves this.
You probably have thousands of people trying to get in.
art bell
Well, yeah, we do.
Okay, well, it'll be a prediction number rounded off at 50 for you.
What do you think is going to happen?
unidentified
50.
The front page of all newspapers will read, at least in the United States, Obama gets Osama.
Huh.
You know, it very well could be true.
Yeah.
But right now, what's happening, it's horrible.
Obama said the worst thing.
He wants to shut down the war.
And you remember the military complex, industrial complex, they're more powerful than the president.
So he's up against a big team right now.
They're probably going to really try to force him out of the White House if he really tries to shut down this war because there's trillions of dollars at stake.
And he's just the president.
art bell
Well, yeah, but he's got us going in Afghanistan.
So that should be some satisfaction for the military-industrial complex.
unidentified
But what he's doing, he's building up the forces so he closed in on Osama bin Laden, shut down their network, decapitate the snake, so to speak, and then get the hell out of there.
That's what he's doing.
He wants to rush in there, take care of that, and get out of there.
art bell
Yeah, but that makes sense to me.
unidentified
Yeah, but the military-industrial complex knows what it's doing.
They're going, oh, my God, this is going to be the end of our cash cow.
art bell
There's always a war.
If you need a war, there's always a war.
unidentified
All right.
art bell
Thank you very much.
It's peace enough.
Obama gets Osama.
Yeah, you know, that is a very likely outcome in 2010, and certainly he's going after him and them in Afghanistan.
And we should have done that a long time ago.
We instead, of course, went to Iraq, and I won't really comment on that, but I mean, going to Afghanistan and neighbors, because you know we're doing that.
When they run away to adjacent countries, we always go after them.
We may not publicize that, but it occurs that's the right thing to do.
Why didn't we do it before?
As far as I'm concerned, it's the right thing to do.
Go get them, for God's sakes.
It's been too long.
You shouldn't be taking any additional breaths.
Wildcard line, you're on here.
unidentified
Hello.
Hi.
Aloha from Hawaii.
art bell
Hawaii again, eh?
unidentified
Yes.
And I've got a prediction for you.
I don't know if this would fall under the good prediction or bad prediction, but my prediction is that George Norrie will be replaced as the host of Coast to Coast AM this year.
Coming here.
art bell
George Norrie, huh?
Okay.
George Nori is replaced.
Okay.
Well, I used to get those all the time.
People telling me that I'd get replaced or something or another would happen.
Well, I'll put it down.
It's number 51.
unidentified
I'll answer that.
art bell
All right.
Thank you very much for the call.
George Nori is replaced.
Number 51.
These are predictions for the coming year.
Whatever those predictions may be, we'll take them as long as they're legitimately made.
First time caller line, you're on the air.
unidentified
Hi, my name is Mike in Bend, Oregon.
art bell
Yes, Mike.
unidentified
How you doing, man?
God bless you.
art bell
Thank you.
unidentified
Happy year to everybody.
My prediction is that a man will discover that God is actually a being of light and he's moving back towards us at the speed of light.
And my second prediction is he will discover.
art bell
One prediction only.
unidentified
Okay.
Well, it's sort of like a two-part, but I understand.
So the result is he'll send a laser signal back in the direction and tell God what a bad job everybody's doing.
art bell
Well, God is a being of light.
And he will come at us at the speed of a laser, which, of course, is the speed of light.
I don't know.
I don't think of God that way.
I think of God.
Well, it doesn't matter how I think of God.
Let's go to the international line, I think.
Is it the international line?
No, it's not.
Wildcard line, you're on the air.
unidentified
Yes, Art.
This is Rob in Rockwood, Tennessee.
art bell
Hi, Rob.
unidentified
I want to say congratulations on your career.
I've been listening to you 14, 15 years.
And got a quick question for you.
You still marketing that pizza sauce you had?
art bell
You know, it's really a shame.
Pizza Punch was so incredibly popular.
And no, it's not presently being marketed.
And we've got about a million people screaming about that, wanting to reorder Pizza Punch, and it can't be done right now.
So it's in limbo is the answer.
unidentified
Okay, well, anyway, I was asked about it more than some of it.
And my prediction for 2010, there's going to be a massive increase in robbery, stealing, that type of thing in the United States.
art bell
Well, that's in crime.
unidentified
Yes, sir.
And the law enforcement is going to be trying to Washington to give them grants and more money so they can hire more officers and everything to take care of it.
art bell
All right.
Well, that's certainly, you know, thank you.
53 is your prediction number.
It's a possibility because when the economy gets really bad, obviously more people get desperate and turn to crime.
So a massive increase in crime in 2010.
Hope it does not come true, but it certainly is possible.
First time caller line, you're on here.
unidentified
Hello.
Yeah, I have a prediction.
art bell
You also have a bad connection.
unidentified
I do.
art bell
Yeah, you do.
Let me hear your prediction.
Let me hear your prediction, and we'll see if I can make it out.
unidentified
I believe there's going to be a virus in the cognitive neuropony.
art bell
You're calling on some kind of internet phone, right?
unidentified
Yeah.
art bell
Yeah.
Something about a virus.
Say it again.
What kind of virus?
unidentified
A cognitive virus that affects the transmitted brain causes processing failures where people can't think straight anymore.
art bell
So a virus that affects the brain, right?
unidentified
Yeah.
art bell
Okay, got it.
And you might want to look into your connection.
unidentified
A virus that affects the brain.
art bell
Okay, that's number 54.
Trying to sort of close quickly here.
Wildcard line, you're on the air.
Hello.
unidentified
You're calling.
Hi, this is the tree planter in Eugene, Oregon.
art bell
Tree planter.
unidentified
Yes.
My prediction is in a relates to a question that you had to pretend.
Remember the callers that called in about this spiritual awakening?
art bell
Oh, yes, several of them.
unidentified
And the question you asked is an event that would precede it.
This is the event, the revival of the ghost dance, which was a messianic spiritual movement in the late 1800s.
But there will be a revival of it this year, and it's going to be among young white people.
art bell
A revival of the ghost dance.
unidentified
Yes.
Wavaka was the prophet of the ghost dance.
He was a Paiute medicine man, prophet.
And just in the last couple years, there was an attempt to revive it up on the Lakota Nation.
And there were some very sad things that they felt was a consequence of it.
But it's going to come off reservation.
It's going to be among young white people, teenagers, 20-somethings.
And this is part of a bigger prophecy of Indigenous people in North America of the return of the ghost children.
The buffalo have already been returned.
There is a designated white buffalo woman that has appeared to the Lakotas, and she has come with the buffalo, and she has carried the sacred pipe during the sun dance in the previous summer.
art bell
All right.
Well, I've got, you know, if there's big news about the ghost dance, we'll give that a ding.
Okay, we are running rapidly out of time, as Canadians would say.
West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
Turn your radio off, please.
Give us your first name and tell us where you're calling from.
unidentified
John, Anchorage, Alaska.
art bell
Hey, John.
unidentified
I have a vision of a high-profile court case in New York City that will make the Rodney King riot look like a children's carnival.
art bell
Have anything to do with terrorism, does it?
unidentified
I believe it might just be art.
I really have been losing sleep over what I believe that the people do not want to see and which our president is too blind to see.
Okay.
art bell
Well, I mean, we all know that big trial's coming up in New York.
So you really think it'll cause riots and things like that?
unidentified
I think that he's not getting the picture, and this is going to be an opportunity.
They've already tried to show him in Washington by having their gatherings, and his stupidity, if you will, of not seeing what people want is scary.
art bell
You know, all right.
You're almost going to cause me to.
You know what?
I'm not writing that down.
unidentified
That's made that too political.
art bell
Political heat.
I'm not taking those.
So number 56 is still open, and we'll fill it tomorrow.
We're out of time.
That's it for tonight.
Predictions for 2010 continued tomorrow night from Manila in the Philippines.
I'm Art Bell.
Thanks for staying with me.
