Time	Text
	From the high desert in the great American Southwest, I bid you all good evening, good
	morning, good afternoon, wherever you may be in the world's prolific time zones, every
	single one of them covered by this program.
	Like a blanket.
	Midnight in the Desert with Art Bell.
	And I am Art Bell.
	Hi.
	Alright, let me begin with the rules of the show.
	They're simple.
	No bad language.
	And only one call per show.
	Drama, drama, drama.
	It looks like this will be the last show Tonight for Leo Ashgraff.
	Now, um, I wasn't going to talk about this tonight because, um, but I, but I have no choice because Leo is posting on Facebook and all over about it.
	I'm getting messages.
	Uh, let's see, what am I getting?
	Um, for example, and here's one email.
	Please save dark matter news.
	It's a great add on to your show.
	So thank you.
	Inpu?
	I guess it is.
	Anyway.
	Like that.
	Lots of messages like that.
	So, um, I have no choice but to do what I always do and come to all of you and talk about what's happened.
	Uh, so, um, here it is.
	Uh, last night, when I went on the air, some of you may have noticed that I was a little distracted.
	Well, I was.
	Leo and Keith were in this giant battle, hanging up on each other, that kind of deal, and I was in the middle of it, you know, trying to arbitrate.
	And this has been going on for a long time, and I've been in the middle trying to arbitrate.
	Well, trying to arbitrate just before the show is really a soul-sucking experience.
	And so if I sounded distracted, that's why.
	Today, it got worse.
	Today, I woke up with a call from Heather Wade, my producer.
	Boy, what a job she does.
	And she told me that Amy Martin, who is our news writer, that's right, she writes most of the news, actually, and may soon be doing it, had told her that Leo had received an offer from coast to coast.
	Oh, those people.
	A big money offer.
	And he was going to go.
	And he asked her to go with him.
	Wanted Amy to go with him.
	She says, oh no.
	No, no, no, no.
	I am loyal to Art, and that's not going to happen.
	So finally, late in the day, I sent Leo an email and said, hey.
	Man up and talk to me.
	Because I had left a message.
	Well, he wasn't there.
	So he said, OK, you can call me now.
	So I called him.
	And he confirmed to me that indeed he had, it was true, he had two offers from producers over at Coast.
	Hadn't accepted yet, but was quitting anyway because he was angry with Keith.
	He couldn't do it anymore, he said.
	Just, no matter what, couldn't get along with Keith.
	So, that's what he says the reason is.
	So, today has been, indeed, another day of drama.
	Basically, you know, he's putting posts up, Leo is now, on his Facebook, saying that it's either me or Keith.
	Me or Keith.
	Keith and I have been together now for decades.
	That's not going to change.
	So, whether it's Coast or somebody else, good luck in whatever endeavor comes next for you, Leo, but that's the story.
	Just, you know, in case people somehow get it wrong or don't know what's going on, they'll be able to refer back to this broadcast, the beginning of this broadcast anyway, and know what's been going on.
	And indeed, when you start arbitrating like that, between two people screaming at each other, Soul-sucking.
	That's what I call it.
	Soul-sucking.
	And it's not easy to have it happen just before you're going to go on the air.
	You know, it's one of those things.
	So, tonight will be his last broadcast.
	Alright, let's look briefly at the news.
	We're going to do open lines, by the way, tonight.
	Open lines.
	Guaranteed.
	Whatever you want to talk about is fair game.
	Anything paranormal would be good.
	Now, I... Oh, I am going to open up a special line.
	In fact, let me get that out now.
	In fact, let me mark it down in all of this drama.
	I didn't even do that.
	Let's see.
	Our special line is the Roswell line.
	That's what it is, by the way.
	Did you know that?
	Roswell, New Mexico.
	That's what you're calling when you call that special line.
	and it's 575, the area code, 208-7787.
	And our special line tonight is going to be dedicated to anybody out there who claims they are married to an alien.
	So it's, I'm married to an alien line.
	Area code 575-208-7787 if you're married to an alien.
	The way I figure it, with Dr. Jacobson, what he said, and then the follow-up to that, There should be a ton of you out there married to an alien.
	Right?
	Anyway, that's coming up in open lines tonight.
	Briefly looking at other news, the 26-year-old gunman who opened fire at a community college in an English class, killing nine, was an army boot camp dropout, we now find out, who studied mass shooters before deciding to become one himself.
	So this is now a study that people do, I guess.
	How do you become a mass shooter?
	You can probably Google it, I suppose.
	Good Lord.
	Millions of people along the East Coast are breathing a little easier after forecasters now are saying Hurricane Joaquin will probably veer out to sea and not harm them it's still it's still going to throw plenty of water in a place that has plenty too much water now I mean they are a mess this would add to it so God take it away from the East Coast could dump I don't know up to 15 inches of rain in places so horrible get this
	A sagging global economy has finally caught up with the U.S.
	Nervous employers, it seems, pulled back on hiring in both August and September as China's economy slowed.
	Global markets sank.
	The market tanked for a while.
	Things are not good.
	So they've caught up to us.
	From TheAnomalous.com, The Alien Hunter shares a bizarre case from India, a case in which a woman claims to have been visited by what she calls the Monkey People, who left mysterious marks on her body, and also what she says is an implant.
	Get that?
	Right under her skin on the shoulder.
	Some thinks it looks like a compacted hair follicle.
	However, Alien Hunter explains that it is in biologic casing of some sort and will be tested.
	It was removed surgically and they're going to figure out what it is.
	Isn't that weird?
	So, I'm anxious.
	I want that report.
	It's been an unusually busy week for UFO traffic in Texas, seems.
	For some reason, as bright, flickering UFO-type objects were first spotted back in March in Houston.
	Is that right, Houston?
	And then the same lights have reappeared in the same area almost every night.
	This, according to an eyewitness, who has gathered so much footage, he is now going to produce a documentary on the lights.
	We'll have to call them, The Houston Lights.
	So, okay.
	In a moment, when we come back, open lines.
	And as I mentioned, anything paranormal is fair game.
	Anything at all, really.
	Open lines means that.
	Open lines.
	So anything you want to talk about.
	And one special line for any of you who... And there must be many, many, many, many of you out there, according to Dr. Jacobs and according to others that have been on the show lately, it's been sort of a theme, right?
	We're being invaded.
	They are here, half-human.
	How many of you think you're married to a half-human?
	See, I'm married to an alien line, and one more time, it is area code 575-208-7787.
	We'll take a break.
	When we come back, I'll do my hated How You Call On Skype lecture, and we'll get underway with nothing but open lines all night long.
	I'm Art Bell and this is Midnight in the Desert.
	Raging in the nighttime.
	Take a walk on the wild side of midnight.
	From the Kingdom of Nigh, this is Midnight in the Desert with Art Bell.
	Please call the show at 1-952-225-5278.
	1-952-CALL-ART.
	Love, absolutely love Girl Harmony and I actually like this song better than the original.
	Uh, anyway.
	All right.
	So, uh, we're about to get underway with Open Lines, but first, my ever, uh, requested, I know, I know, I just can't do it enough, right?
	If you want to call the show, we have a national number, of course, right?
	One national number.
	Actually, more than that.
	But one main national number.
	How about that?
	Area code 952-225-5278.
	952-225-5278. Once again, 1-952-225-5278.
	225-533-0200.
	If you would like to call and sound like you're right here in the studio, we have Skype availability.
	Actually, two of them.
	One for North America, one for the rest of the world.
	If you're in North America, America or Canada, simply go and download Skype to your, I don't care, anything.
	I guess to your iPad or your iPhone or Your Android, whatever, download Skype.
	And once you've done it, oh, it's ever so easy.
	Become familiar a little bit with Skype.
	And then put in, if you're in North America, put in, well, you go to the little plus sign.
	You'll find it.
	It's not where you dial.
	It's a little plus sign.
	Add a contact.
	And add M-I-T-D 5-1.
	As in midnight in the desert, right?
	M-I-T-D 5-1.
	Then we'll be in your contacts.
	And when you want to call us, you just go to the contacts, go to MITD, and boom!
	Call us.
	And boy, does it sound good.
	Usually.
	I mean, you've got to be close to the mic or using an iPhone or an Android or something.
	And then if you're outside of North America, you can put in MITD55.
	Anywhere in the rest of the world, MITD55.
	After you hit that little plus sign.
	Alright, now that we've got all of that out of the way, let's rock, shall we?
	Uh, let's go to, uh, let's go to the phones first.
	And you're on, uh, Midnight, on the air.
	Hi.
	Hello?
	Hello?
	Going once, going twice, gone.
	Um, hi, you're on the air.
	Art?
	Yes.
	Art, I am right now, this is like a dream come true, I can't believe I'm actually talking to THE Art Bell.
	I can die a happy man, I don't want to die too soon, but I can die a happy man, holy moly.
	Hopefully there's more in your life to make you happy than a short conversation with me, my goodness.
	I am so flabbergasted right now, I've been listening to you since I was like 15, so this is actually like, you're like my Johnny Carson.
	And you're like 60 now, right?
	Oh, of course, of course.
	You know it, you know it.
	I've had two things that have been bothering me since you have left the place that will not be named.
	John Titor and Bob Lazar.
	Yes.
	Any updates on either John Titor or Bob Lazar?
	Well, one at a time.
	John Titor has not been heard from by anybody.
	Number two, it is a popular misconception that I spoke with John.
	I did not.
	I think that was on the other show.
	And if he would like to talk to me, he's more than welcome to.
	In the meantime, we are pursuing other time travelers, and we've got some pretty good ones on the hook, so hang in there.
	It'll be coming up.
	Now, it was John Titor and what else?
	Bob Lazar.
	Bob Lazar.
	Bob is a good friend.
	Has been for a long time.
	I'm sure he would come on the air if I requested him to, but here's the thing about Bob.
	His story never changes.
	And that is to his credit.
	So if I were to have him back now, I mean, he came on and did a long show with me in which he went through every detail of what he did at Area 51, S4, and Um, that's it.
	I mean, yes, we could have him back, but it would be, you know, kind of a replay of what we've already done.
	So his story doesn't change.
	Hey, Mark, one last thing before I bounce from your lovely show.
	If one day your archives could be opened up, I know many millions of us would be absolutely dancing the streets for joy.
	Okay, well, we love you.
	Thank you very much.
	That's an impossibility.
	The archives are owned by what is now called iHeartRadio.
	And that's the old archives.
	Now, we have begun to build very substantial archives, I might add, on this program.
	So, if you are a time traveler, you've already got hours and hours and hours and hours of archives, and we continue to build new ones every night.
	Let's go to Skype, and Stephen, hello.
	Hello, Art.
	How are you doing tonight?
	I'm doing fine, actually.
	Excellent, and speaking of the archives, I wanted to do a quick plug for being a time traveler.
	It was about last week and the past two weeks I've been extremely busy, and I fell behind on some of the shows.
	I couldn't get the chance to listen, and so I went to the archives.
	I load them up on a multimedia, like a little MP3 player, and I played it in my car on a long trip, and let me tell you, it sounded Absolutely amazing and like the speaker system in my car and it sounded like the whole radio experience.
	I know.
	The audio that we're able to produce when everything is right is astronomically good and that translates of course to the archives.
	Hope you caught up on some good shows.
	What do you hear?
	I did.
	Oh, what was the one, the last, about the nuclear?
	I didn't get a chance to listen to the nuclear.
	Oh, well, that'll cheer you right up.
	That was a very interesting show, to say the least.
	And I actually had one quick question to you, because I know a lot of people want to talk to you, but I had an interesting question for you that I don't think I've ever heard you mention.
	And the question is, now that you're back on the air, and I kind of want to ask you, how does it make you feel, kind of talk about your legacy, like, how does it make you feel to know that so many people are impacted by your voice alone?
	And just, how does that feel?
	Like, what, have you ever described that before?
	No, I haven't, but I'll try, Stephen, thank you.
	Yeah, I guess I'm at the age where people begin talking about legacies, right?
	You're a legend, and all this stuff.
	I hate it.
	Actually, I hate that stuff.
	I really do.
	I am still creating, so... I guess that would be my answer.
	My legacy is not to be written yet because I am still creating, and I guess I'll be doing that all my life.
	So, I speak not of my legacy at this point, nor The legendary stuff.
	I appreciate it all, it's very nice, but I am still creating.
	Let's go back to the phones and say, hello there, you are on the air.
	Hi, Eric, this is Plasma on Polarica, I'm listening in a shortwave, WTWW, on 5085 kilohertz, signal comes most of the nights, but you know, it is nice to get on the computer a couple nights, and when I did that, the sound quality was audio, stereo, very nice, and I wish I could do it all the time, but I just don't have internet connection Or I spend a lot of my time on the Continental Divide doing astronomy, and because of the dark skies and the proximity to the VLA, we don't have very good internet connectivity there.
	But I have been exploring this Martian cliff-dwelling creature, which was photographed by one of the photographs.
	Oh!
	Yeah, that's a hell of a photograph.
	Hold on, sir.
	You know what?
	If that's a rock, Then I'll eat it.
	I don't believe in the rock at all.
	That's some kind of creature.
	I think, I knew you'd say that once you studied it.
	And what we have found, we've been doing bio, exo-bio analysis and, you know, back engineering.
	In other words, back engineering is analysis.
	So then we reverse that and say, okay, if we were building a Martian creature, how would we do it?
	And do forward engineering?
	And what has come from that exercise is we now know how to build a Martian spacesuit that can take in carbon dioxide, turn it into oxygen for breathing, and just use very simple inputs like water and sunlight.
	Well, that's lovely, but I'm not ready to book a ticket.
	No, but by looking at the physiology of how this Martian creature works... Oh, by the way, let me add one more thing.
	Build a Martian alien, or a Martian creature, I guess would be home world to the Martian, right?
	So, it seems to me from almost all the pictures I've looked at of Mars, and I've looked at thousands, the best way to build a Martian creature would be with rocks.
	Well, there's plenty of that available, but there's also carbon dioxide, and carbon dioxide can be turned into oxygen just the way it's been done on Earth, with diatoms.
	We've got, I think I sent you some links to pictures of diatoms on Mars, as well as of the Cretaceous belt.
	And the diatoms is what generated the oxygen on Earth.
	We used to have an atmosphere that was rich in carbon dioxide, just like Mars, and a lot of nitrogen and carbon dioxide, nothing to breathe.
	Listen to me, if you're really serious about this, in my opinion, sir, what you should do is immediately get a hold of NASA, because you'll make a lot of money.
	I don't know if NASA's figured it out, or if this is new technology.
	Sounds new.
	And so if you really can do that, then by all means, my goodness.
	Yes, yes, yes.
	Definitely.
	Let's go to Oklahoma City.
	Hello there.
	Hello.
	Yes, sir.
	Oh, hi.
	Yeah, this is Mike.
	We're just south Oklahoma City there.
	Yes, sir.
	Hey, enjoy your show, man.
	I'm sure glad you got back on, et cetera, et cetera.
	Get all that out of the way.
	I've had some very close encounters with UFO craft and beings.
	Okay, well, you know what, sir?
	You're on my I'm Married to an Alien line, is what you're on.
	Oh, I have this down as your Roswell line.
	You said 575-208-7787.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Isn't that your Roswell?
	Uh, it is, but that's my, I'm married to an alien line.
	Didn't you hear me at the beginning?
	Wouldn't even know it.
	So, uh, are you married to an alien?
	No, sir.
	All right.
	Well, I'm sorry.
	I've got to enforce the rules or it doesn't work.
	Thank you for the call.
	I apologize.
	Uh, but really the rules, the rules is the rules.
	Sorry about that.
	Let's go to, uh, Mike on Skype.
	Hello, Mike.
	Hey, how are you doing?
	I'm doing fine.
	I want to tell you about something that happened to me.
	I used to grow tobacco down near Port Burwell on the shore of Lake Erie, about a mile from Lake Erie.
	Yes, sir.
	And there's a small graveyard there.
	Yes.
	And everyone wonders where a lot about.
	And they see things.
	And the people that work at the nursery say they see Um, a hearse go down the road and then disappears in front of their eyes while they're driving down that road.
	So you mean like ghostly things?
	Yeah, and a horse drawn with horses.
	You know?
	Yeah.
	This is crazy.
	That's more like some kind of a time slip or something, huh?
	Yeah, well, yeah.
	And all over my farm, people are seeing shadow people and stuff from that time.
	When we were, uh, hoeing tobacco one time, We were hauling tobacco down the field and all of a sudden we see these people going into that graveyard and putting flowers on the grave.
	Is the graveyard on your farm?
	Yes.
	It's on our property.
	Well, see, there is your first problem.
	Probably it's not good to have a graveyard on your farm.
	Well, it's not our choice, Art.
	Well, I understand.
	I think it's called the Berean.
	Um, I could look it up for you.
	It's Wolfman here, so I can get back to you on that and give you the details.
	Okay.
	I'm just saying, I'm just saying, you know.
	Graveyard.
	Anyways, one time I was walking down that road at night, because it spooks everyone out, right?
	Yes.
	Wow.
	Okay, this is the thing that I want you to hear, Art.
	Okay, go.
	Okay.
	This is strange.
	I'm going to go right into it.
	Please.
	Fireflies follow me around.
	That's bad.
	No.
	Actually, they give me power.
	You've got to really hurry, sir.
	We've got news coming.
	Anyways, the fireflies were in the trees.
	They were following me.
	I went to the fireflies.
	All of a sudden, this thing comes out.
	I said, show yourself.
	I knew there was something there in this book.
	And a firefly comes out in front of my face and then blows up into a two-foot sphere of light.
	Holy mackerel.
	And I can't... I don't understand what that is.
	I'd like to... You can't... What did I say about bad language?
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	I'm sorry, Art.
	So, a firefly... Excuse the crap out of me.
	Okay, I'll let that go.
	So, a firefly...
	Blew up into something two feet wide, is that right?
	Yes, two feet wide in front of my face, and I could feel the sentience coming off of it.
	Yes.
	Well, next time you're going to want to swat it faster.
	Well, I had a staff with me that I carry because of wolves and creatures, because it's in the boonies, right?
	I bet you can't even fly with the staff.
	But the staff didn't make me feel comfortable.
	I ran as fast as I could.
	See, I would have done the same thing, sir.
	Okay, thank you very much for the call.
	We're up against the news here.
	It is open lines tonight.
	Anything, obviously, as you can tell already, anything you want to talk about is fair game.
	From the high deserts, this is midnight in the desert raging in the nighttime.
	The deserts are the most beautiful places in the world.
	Oh Midnight in the Desert doesn't screen calls.
	We trust you.
	But remember, the NSA... Well, you know.
	To call the show, please dial 1-952-225-5278.
	That's 1-952-CALL-ART.
	Alright, we're in open lines.
	Anything you want to talk about is absolutely fair game.
	However, we do have a special line.
	It's called the I'm Married to an Alien line.
	That's right.
	I'm married to an alien line, and I think it should be full.
	It is full.
	We'll go to one in a moment.
	And it is full because if Professor Jacobs and others are right, there's lots and lots of hybrids out there, you know, half us, half them.
	And there is nothing closer than a marriage.
	Husband and wife, they know every little mood of the other.
	So, if you have detected that your other, as it were, is no longer fully human, then I want to hear from you.
	And let us go there to Unmarried to an Alien Line, way back in the Midwest.
	Hi, you're on the air.
	Hello?
	Yes.
	Bart, it's an honor and a privilege.
	I've been listening to you for years, and just glad to hear you back.
	Well, thank you.
	Good to be back.
	And you are obviously, because of this line, you're married to an alien, right?
	Well, I questioned it for years, what was wrong with her, but after listening to Dr. Jacobs the other night, now I know.
	All right.
	What are the, I mean, you know, what are the signs?
	I mean, hopefully she's not there listening, right?
	No, no, she's not.
	Okay, good.
	I don't want to hear a sudden shot in the background or a scream and then know you're gone.
	So, you think she's an alien.
	Why?
	I mean, what are the signs that she displays?
	There's absolutely no... I've never met anyone like her that has no emotion, no compassion, no... I mean, it's just a stone-cold, constant You're as cold as ice!
	demeanor about her. Really that cold? Absolutely, absolutely. I mean she has tried to destroy
	me more than once. Oh my god, but I mean just stony cold, I can't believe it, that's horrible.
	Hold on a second, let me get in the mood for this.
	You're as cold as ice, you're willing to sacrifice our love.
	Does that about wrap it up?
	you That's the theme song right there.
	Yeah.
	Oh, that's horrible.
	I mean, she probably wasn't that way in the beginning or you wouldn't have married her, right?
	That's correct.
	That's correct.
	And as soon as, and I'm sure you've heard those stories before, as soon as you say, I do, then all of a sudden everything changes.
	And honestly, for years, I just, I couldn't believe anyone could be like this.
	I mean, she obviously has to respond when you speak, but it's kind of like a cold... I mean, how would you describe her voice when she talks to you?
	It's sort of a... No, it's monotone.
	It's, you know, the eyes... I mean, people that... I will do as you ask, honey.
	No, no, it wasn't that either.
	You will do as I ask, honey.
	Oh, you will do as I ask.
	And has it been ongoing that way for how long now?
	Oh, over 15 years.
	And if you disobey?
	Oh, there's been some... Awful things?
	Horrible, horrible things.
	We don't even want to talk about them here on the air, right?
	Exactly, because I will not fight back.
	So these are like scars that will be with you forever?
	Oh, I'm afraid so.
	So now, Dr. Jacobs says that these are not friendly aliens, and I guess you're ready to confirm that fact.
	Absolutely, I agree 100%.
	My mother thinks that she's a vampire, but I think, after listening to Dr. Jacobs, I think she's an alien.
	So, not only, not only your wife, Oh, God, this is unbelievable.
	All right, well, you know, I wish Leo luck earlier.
	I really wish you luck, sir.
	Well, I appreciate it, Art, because I'm trying to distance myself, but I hope I can do it, you know, until we get away 100%.
	Awful.
	All right, sir, thank you for the call, and good luck.
	Thank you, Eric.
	I appreciate talking to you so much.
	Take care.
	That's a sad story.
	That's a really sad story.
	I'm not sure I can go on picturing him night after night after night.
	Cody, hello there!
	You're on the air, on Skype.
	Oh, hi.
	Hi.
	I guess I could consider myself one of the younger viewers.
	of the show I've been listening to you only for like a couple of years
	I suppose you could stare at the computer you know as you as you listen
	so you're a listener actually yeah I mean I I just like actually the way I heard of you actually you
	had to go through like the old archives of like your old ghost of ghost shows and
	that's how I discovered you
	that's right and I just thought you were so much better than I guess the older show
	as you put it so I want to talk about my dad before you do would you like to express any
	I don't know Sympathy?
	Compassion for the last caller?
	I'm broken up about that.
	Not much.
	I really have no say in that kind of thing.
	But my story kind of revolves around my dad.
	He's an electrician.
	In the past, he's had his own little experiences with the paranormal and stuff like that, like Ouija boards.
	Just little small trinkets of events that he couldn't explain, and he's told me all about them.
	But the one that always sticks with me is when he went to go work at someone's house, because he's an electrician, as I said.
	The people at the house seemed to be normal people, but he kind of picked up on weird stuff.
	He saw a lot of books on Hitler in some of the rooms.
	A lot of weird bird masks and he had to get to this one room to work on their fuse box and they're like, uh, we have to clear a bit of stuff out.
	So can you come the next day?
	And you know, he's like, okay.
	Uh, so he comes the next day and then he opens the room and what do you know, on the ground is a giant pentagram.
	So.
	Yeah, so he's thinking, oh, I just better finish my job and get the heck out of here.
	I'm trying to sit here and imagine what was in the room that they cleared out.
	Good God.
	Yeah, and then, uh, he had, anyways, he had, uh, part of his job, he had to fish the wires through the attic.
	So he was going through the attic, and then as he was clearing the insulation, he found this little leather box, this little leather box, and it had this Red wax stamp right in the middle of this symbol.
	He couldn't, uh, he didn't know what it was.
	So he actually kind of just sat there for quite a bit of time, just staring at this box and he was like, should I open this or?
	Probably not.
	Yeah.
	He decided like, he was like, you know, knowing my luck, I'll probably release hell on the world.
	Yes.
	So he just kind of like put it back underneath, finished his job and got out.
	And, you know, a couple of months later passed and then, uh, Uh, my grandfather, uh, came, and he handed him the newspaper.
	It turned out that, uh, house got raided by the police.
	Oh?
	Yeah, and, well, no, that's about it.
	It's just, he didn't know what else happened.
	He kind of... He didn't know what they were raided for?
	Uh, I guess just, uh, satanic ritual activity.
	That's not illegal.
	Uh... Remember, we live in the home of the brave.
	Well, no, I'm in Canada, so... And the free.
	You're allowed to do that stuff, but where do you live?
	Canada.
	Where?
	Canada, Toronto.
	Canada.
	Oh, okay.
	Well, maybe in... Oh.
	So in Canada... I don't know if it's more of a legal activity or not, but... Wow.
	I guess.
	And he never really heard about anything else.
	He never heard about if that box was ever found.
	But I always kind of just wondered what was in that box.
	Scary stuff, eh?
	Yeah.
	And before I just hang up, because it is a pleasure to talk with you, I think I have a recommendation for a future guest.
	Okay.
	Because you're into the whole Ouija board stuff.
	No, I'm not.
	Yeah, I know.
	I know, uh, there's this guy on YouTube, uh, his, uh, page is called, uh, Live Sci-Fi, and all he does is just sit around playing with Ouija boards, and he records what- he also has a recording device, and he records what he hears, and he actually picks up some pretty scary stuff, so that's- Well, bully for him, but my estimation is one day they'll be picking him up, uh, in little pieces somewhere.
	Yeah, I just think that's the type of guy you should get in contact with for, like, a future show.
	Well, um, I'll think about it.
	Thank you.
	Alright, thanks.
	So the little box virtually said everything but Pandora on it.
	Don't forget, folks, if you think you're married to an alien, and here she is not within earshot, you've called at this time of night, I'm sure, call I'm Married to an Alien line at area code 575-208-7787.
	area code five seven five two zero eight seven seven eight seven the last story was
	gripping and uh... scary beyond all belief
	Remember, she told him, essentially, she is in charge.
	You will do as I say from this moment on.
	Right after the vows.
	Hello there.
	In Washington, I think you're on the air.
	Hello, Art.
	How are you doing?
	I'm doing fine.
	Where, in fact, are you actually?
	I'm in Washington, D.C.
	I have to tell you, I've been followed by the presence or the spirit of my grandfather for a long time.
	How do you know it's your grandfather?
	The things that I've talked to my mother and my aunt about, about their life, only he would know.
	And I know it's my grandfather because my grandfather used to build houses, and he built the church back home in North Carolina.
	And I'm building in my mother-in-law's house right now.
	Are you able to see him?
	I can feel his presence.
	And it's incredible because he tells me things to do.
	Like, I started my own publishing business with my fiancée.
	And can I mention the name of it, Art?
	No, I'd rather you don't.
	I know you want the plug, but I'm sorry, but really not.
	Don't need the plug, Art.
	We're pretty good as we are right now.
	Anyway, so you... Okay.
	And he told me things to do, and it's been...
	You know, working consecutively.
	I mean, from the business to working with my mom and aunt, I know it's my grandfather.
	I can feel his presence, and sometimes I can even smell his tobacco.
	Okay.
	Well, listen, what can I tell you, my friend?
	But hang in there, and hopefully your granddad's a good guy.
	It'll be good advice, and you'll rise to the top.
	Thank you, Art.
	Hey, Art, welcome back!
	Thank you.
	Very nice.
	Going to, I'm married to an alien line?
	I believe in New Orleans, Louisiana.
	Hello.
	Hello there.
	Yes.
	Oh, you are there.
	Okay, good.
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	I was talking to you for a second, but you must not have heard me.
	I was talking to myself over here.
	Yeah, sorry about that.
	You're in the New Orleans area, right?
	Yes.
	Married to an alien?
	For real?
	Yes.
	I actually am.
	Okay.
	All right.
	Let's go through this.
	I mean, when did you realize that your wife was, well, one of them?
	Okay.
	Well, you see, here's the thing.
	You don't really... Okay.
	It's not like I married a grey alien from the sky that she crash-landed in.
	Oh, I know, I know.
	Listen, according to Dr. Jacobs, they look absolutely normal.
	Well, here's the thing.
	This is more normal, not the whole marrying part.
	I mean, well, that's normal too, but there's a lot, most, I'd say about Three percent of the population, more or less, are, you know, tears or aliens, you know.
	It's been going on forever.
	And the fact of the matter is that I ended up marrying one, and I found out after the fact.
	After the fact?
	I mean... In other words, you think she was converted after you married her?
	Well, here's the thing.
	She's very... She's nice.
	I'm not going to say my wife's name, Cynthia.
	No, don't.
	Sorry.
	Well, you just said it.
	Gosh.
	Okay.
	Anyway.
	Do you want to, do you want to terminate this call before you get in trouble?
	No, no, no.
	All right.
	Then tell me about her.
	Okay.
	Here's the thing.
	She is a person.
	She acts like a person.
	She, you know, she's a hardworking woman.
	She has a great job.
	She is a person thing in a matter of fact that a matter is, is the type of alien she is.
	Um, Her species sends people, sends their kind, I'm trying to say the right nomenclature, down to earth and basically in human form.
	But spiritually, and it's not like appearance wise, but spiritually, the soul, the brain, the inner workings, the inner tubing, if you will, that's all alien.
	The inner tubing?
	That is what you said.
	You don't have to get any more graphic than that.
	I'm trying to speak radio lingo.
	I'm starting to get scared.
	Yikes.
	Don't give me any more on that.
	That's enough.
	They're not here to invade the planet.
	It was basically originally to save their species.
	You heard about the alien abductions where You know, people were abducted and guys, you know, their seed was taken from them and stuff like that.
	And it was to help save the species.
	Well, this was the same.
	This was another route to help save the species.
	The only difference is it started out as an experiment.
	And then of course, once you have people here, once you have the aliens here, they begin to breed, they begin to populate, the bloodline goes down.
	I mean, Art, you might have alien blood in your veins for all we know.
	I know my son does.
	And my son looks just like me and not like her.
	Well, I mean, you would have to say your son certainly has alien blood in his veins, right?
	She is half alien.
	Her mother is a human being.
	Her mother was actually born in Oahu, Hawaii.
	Sounds like a president story.
	Yeah.
	Her father is just like her.
	Yes.
	You know, alien on the inside, human on the outside, but her uncle and I believe her grandmother, who I haven't met, is actually from another dimension.
	I can't even pronounce her name.
	Okay, how does this, if you don't mind, how does this manifest in your wife?
	What is it you notice about your wife that makes you even believe this?
	She bleeds green.
	She does what?
	She bleeds green.
	She bleeds green?
	Yeah, oh yeah, yes.
	Like light green?
	Dark green?
	Shocking green?
	It's like the baby food green color, you know what I'm saying?
	Oh God, Gerber green.
	Yeah, yeah, you don't want to, so that's why I tell her not to pick roses with thorns and stuff, you don't want the green blood coming from the fingers and stuff.
	Oh.
	Yeah.
	I ask her and I joke around all the time, I ask her... Well, that's no joke.
	That's no joke.
	I joke around and ask her if she could take me back to her home planet.
	You know, it's no joke.
	It ends up in fights all the time.
	I'm sure it does.
	And I mean, I don't even know if she has a birth control.
	I mean, even by saying this right now... Maybe she doesn't even need it.
	Well, she does.
	I mean, you've got a son, right?
	It is by her.
	I know.
	I mean, if Trump becomes president here, if I'm actually married to an illegal alien from outer space, who knows what he's going to do, you know?
	Well, I'll tell you this.
	You'll have to fill out one hell of a lot of paperwork.
	Well, look, here's the thing.
	It's hard enough getting my bride here from the Philippines.
	You try it from another planet or galaxy.
	Any idea where she's from, by the way?
	It's way, at those star systems, way, way, way out.
	You know the, um... God, what's that one star called?
	The big red one?
	Mars.
	Canis Majoris?
	Oh, that's a star, I'm sorry.
	So even past Alpha Centauri, way out there.
	Yeah.
	Alright, so I've done a lead line, but... Bleak Green, my God.
	This is Midnight in the Desert, I'm Art Bell.
	Can you imagine that?
	Gerber Green.
	Now from the high desert it just keeps coming.
	Remember when calling midnight?
	Anything at all.
	But we do have a special line, and it's called, I'm married to an alien line.
	Call 1952, call Art, that's 1952-225-5278.
	Open lines, anything goes.
	Anything at all.
	But we do have a special line.
	And it's called, I'm married to an alien line.
	So if you're married to an alien, for real.
	The number is area code 575-208-7787.
	Only if you're married to an alien, okay?
	So if you look in your loved one's eyes and you see Gerber Green, or whatever... Oh, look at this.
	I'm sorry about that.
	When we go into open lines, we get so many calls that Skype throws up its hands and quits.
	You just did that.
	So, everybody, please be patient with Skype.
	I'll bring it back up.
	I can do that.
	It just quits.
	So, keep trying.
	As with the phones, you know, if Skype doesn't answer, try and try again.
	It will eventually, as I'm about to prove now, go outside the country to Mark.
	Hello, Mark.
	Yeah, hi, R. Good morning.
	Good morning.
	Or good evening to you.
	I have a true story.
	Now, I'm not claiming causality here, but this was very strange.
	Alright.
	In May of this year, May 2nd actually, I was on a flight from Frankfurt to Sevilla, Spain.
	Right.
	Lufthansa flight number 1140.
	Right.
	Sitting on the window near the wing.
	And I decided I was going to try and do an experiment.
	And I'm not claiming causality, but I looked out the window after about an hour into the flight, and I looked up and I concentrated, and I said, if there are aliens out there, please give me a sign.
	And you wanted the sign while you were in the middle of probably a 30,000 feet?
	Yes, and we were just about to go over the Pyrenees, and I concentrated for about 15 to 20 minutes, and I was sitting next to the left wing, And about 20 minutes after I was really seriously concentrating on this, the engines cut back substantially, almost to a glide, and the pilot came on the microphone, on the intercom system, and announced that there is a, in German he said, there's a kleine Risse, a small crack in the cockpit windshield.
	Whoa!
	This is crude.
	I'm not claiming causality, but this is very strange that this happened within 15 to 20 minutes of me really concentrating and looking out the window.
	And we made a pretty much wide emergency landing in Madrid.
	Oh my God.
	What a story.
	True story.
	Well, you know, you better time your wishes and your intent throwing better.
	Well, let me tell you, when we got off the plane, the cockpit door was open, and the pilot did a wonderful job, but he understated what really happened.
	The windshield did not blow out, but it was completely shattered.
	It was still in the window.
	It was still in the window frame, but it was completely shattered.
	It was not a small crack, as he had told us.
	Well, they always underplay that stuff, Mark, of course.
	So, I don't know if I should take responsibility for that, but that really happened.
	Well, it sounds like you are taking responsibility.
	See you later, Mark.
	Bye.
	I think he's in Germany.
	I hope I got that right.
	Anyway, can you imagine?
	You certainly would imagine that you did it.
	I am married to an alien... Oh, he gave up?
	Well, maybe not.
	Maybe I punched the wrong line.
	Hi there.
	I'm married to an alien, right?
	That's you.
	Well, I was about 13 years ago.
	Uh-huh.
	So... I came to my senses.
	Yes?
	And got the hell out of that deal.
	Did you, um, when you filed for divorce, I'm assuming you filed?
	No, no, she did.
	She couldn't stand me either.
	Oh.
	But here's the deal.
	They took us.
	To the home planet.
	What do you mean, they?
	The aliens.
	Her home planet.
	The alien masters took us to the home planet.
	Holy smokes!
	Well, what they were doing was doing research on the mating and reproductive habits of the human species.
	They wanted to observe you in marital bliss?
	But basically, procreation.
	That's horrible.
	Absolutely horrible.
	They gave a demonstration with two of their aliens, two of their creatures.
	They wrapped their tentacles... Don't tell me, sir.
	Alien porn, so to speak.
	Probably to get you in the mood.
	I'm sure it would ruin the whole experience.
	I mean, tentacles?
	It only lasted about eight seconds.
	They shuddered, they vibrated a little bit, and then the female alien's back opened up, and a baby popped out.
	A baby alien!
	That quick?
	Wait a minute, that fast?
	Yes!
	And they said, well, how do you mate on Earth?
	So we, you know, hesitantly did it, and they got I don't even know how to ask this, but I've got to ask.
	When requested to do such a thing, after being taken to another planet with a bunch of aliens standing around, probably rooting you on, or whatever the alien equivalent of a root is, how could you do that?
	Art, obviously, we did it for science.
	We did it... Oh, really?
	Yeah, but not our science.
	It's their science.
	Oh, yeah.
	But the thing is, they got a puzzled look on their little alien faces, and they said, well, where's the baby?
	And we explained to them that on Earth... Nine months.
	Nine months.
	Nine months.
	And so I'm curious here, nine months later, what happened?
	Well, we didn't stick around.
	They apparently weren't very impressed, and they kept wondering why I was kind of hurrying there toward the end.
	So, did you have a child with this alien?
	No.
	It turned out I was shooting intergalactic blanks.
	Intergalactic blanks.
	All right, sir.
	You could not have done a better job.
	Thank you for that call.
	Married to an alien.
	And I'm not going to repeat the rest of it.
	That was truly uber, wasn't it?
	Let's give Michael a try on Skype.
	Hello, Michael.
	Hello.
	How are you doing?
	Can you hear me all right?
	I hear you fine.
	Michael, do you have any comment on the concept of intergalactic blanks?
	Intergalactic?
	Never mind.
	It was just a joke.
	Well, I'm the guy who sent you the video on your dream.
	Oh, you're the one who put that together!
	That is so cool!
	It is so cool, Michael, and anybody who has not seen it, Keith, back up to the top of the site with it, please.
	Keith will know what I'm talking about.
	Put it back up to the top of the site.
	This is Michael, who put together the animation Of my dream of encountering an alien saucer while I was in a bus.
	It's the doggone thing you've ever seen.
	Michael, you're very talented.
	How do you do that?
	Well, I've been doing 3D animation.
	It's just a hobby for about 10 years.
	And I always listen to your programs.
	ten years and I always listen to your programs and I heard your story about the dream and
	I thought I'm going to make an animation about that and I sent it to Keith because I can't
	post it.
	I sent it to Keith and I said if you like it you can post it.
	Let me give you full credit, you want to give your last name on the air?
	Mike Gingrich.
	Michael Gingrich.
	Right.
	G-I-N-G-R-I-C-H.
	And you deserve the credit because, man, that thing is awesome.
	So now it's back up at the top of the page, Michael, and everybody can go over to Artbell.com right now and take a look.
	Well, you know, the thing I appreciated is that you liked it and that Keith liked it.
	And I really appreciate that.
	I didn't like it.
	I loved it.
	And so did Keith.
	Keith sent me a text saying, Oh God, Art, you've got to see this right now.
	And so I took a look and I just laughed and laughed and laughed.
	Great job, Michael.
	Thank you.
	Thank you.
	Take care, buddy.
	That's Michael Gingrich.
	Wow.
	The guy who did that animation.
	You've got to see that animation.
	Seriously.
	It's at artbell.com.
	Buy now.
	I would probably suspect Keith has it to the top of the page.
	But it was really cool.
	Really, really cool.
	Phoenix, Arizona.
	You're on the air on the phone.
	Hi.
	Hello, Art.
	Yes.
	Well, that was pretty quick.
	This is Ryan out in Sonoran Desert, Buckeye, Arizona again.
	It's great to hear your voice out here.
	If you're complaining, I can put you back on hold.
	Oh, no, no.
	When I called before, usually there's a wait, so I was just... Well, the phone lines are full.
	I just happened to pick that line, so lucky you.
	That's fine.
	How's Asia doing?
	Is she doing better?
	Yes.
	She went through a week of being at home, missing school.
	Must be heartbreaking.
	Missing school, and that's pretty serious stuff.
	You know, she had 103 and a half temperature, and that scared the you-know-what out of me.
	Yeah, I hope she's doing better, and I'm glad to hear that.
	I was just going to throw a couple things at you here.
	How about, have you thought about bringing back the honors to the final call, saying goodnight to the world and America?
	Have you thought about, remember you used to do that years ago, the voice box?
	When J.C.
	would call you, you would have that funny sound.
	Yes, I'm the one who put that voice box together and adopted it to broadcast.
	But J.C.
	is missing.
	J.C.
	may have passed into the next life.
	You know, you gotta wonder how he's doing, too.
	When he got to the gates, I wonder if they recognized him.
	Oh, you're our guy!
	You were the one calling Art Bell, right?
	Yeah, he used to call you the devil and all this, but he would listen and call you, so that was interesting.
	So he would call you all these names, but he would still listen, so... Oh, yes.
	And, uh, it was funny when one night he called you, this was back in 97, I don't know if you remember it, but he used to tell you that he used to shoot at cats with a pellet gun or something, and with the voice box, he would, he would say something about... I said something pretty old.
	Um, well, anybody who shoots pellets at cats, uh, ought to be horse whipped.
	And if you're still alive, JC, you can hear that.
	There you go.
	I'm a cat person.
	Sorry.
	All right.
	Well, listen.
	Can I, uh, ask you one more thing?
	Yes.
	Sure.
	Oh, great.
	This is about, uh, rest in peace to Colonel Philip J. Corse.
	So, uh, there's been a lot of people who have come out and disputed some of the things he said.
	I know.
	I understand some of it, okay?
	I read the Diector Roswell book, but I look at his record, how honorable he was, served the country during World War II, highly decorated, and that classic show on July 23rd, 1997 with Colonel Alexander and... Boy, you're a good record keeper.
	You know, here's what I would say.
	Here's what I would say.
	I would say that the way he laid it out seemed logical to me.
	In other words, if you were going to integrate alien technology from a crash, that's how you would do it.
	You would parcel it out slowly to industry and defense, and that's how you do it.
	So it made sense to me.
	And wash your hands from it and let the companies take credit for it.
	You got it.
	The thing that was about that show, which was crucial, Alexander backed up what he was saying is where he was at
	his record is that's right oh and in that very this is my point of all this the
	very end of the show I'm amazed that people haven't picked this up but at
	the end of the show you asked Colonel Corso why are you coming forward now
	Colonel And he told you something that was very telling to me, that stuck with me all these years.
	He said he's doing it, that he did it for the grandkids, for his boys, that he wanted to have a record for them.
	So I don't think somebody who is at the end of their life, because he died the following year, sadly, and he said that he wanted a record for his grandkids.
	I just can't see Someone like that disrespect his family, disrespect his, uh, dishonor his grandkids.
	And I just wanted to put that out there is to me that what's what really convinced me that he was telling the truth.
	Good for you.
	I thought he was telling the truth too, sir.
	Thank you for the call.
	I thought Colonel, Colonel Corso absolutely was telling the truth.
	And I, you know, when you spend hours Interviewing somebody like this, I'm not saying that you have an absolute truth detector, but my BS detector is pretty darn good.
	And Corso came across as absolutely the real thing to me.
	So, you know, I'm not sure what to say, except I think he was the real deal.
	And beyond my thinking he was the real deal, the way he laid it out, as I just mentioned, made sense to me.
	If you were going to release new technology that had come into your hands as a result of a crash at Roswell, that's exactly how you would do it without creating, you know, all kinds of very serious suspicion.
	Don't you think?
	I do.
	Let's go to Daniel on Skype.
	Daniel, hello.
	Hello, Art.
	Hi.
	Roswell's.
	Hey, I wanted to know if it was possible, I know you've been bringing a lot of the good things from the past shows back again, and I'd like to know if we could possibly do a mass concentration experiment for some positive results to happen.
	And also, I have another comment, I have a question about what happened between you and Jimmy Church.
	He's claiming now that your famous phone call was I have no idea.
	Jimmy Church is a guy who claimed that he had this deep association with me, sir, that I called him all the time, I listened to his show constantly, and he was filling in for me and all this kind of stuff, and it was all baloney.
	I had talked to him one time in my life and one time only on the phone in a group call.
	That was it.
	But the way he sounded and the postings he was making, it was like he was part of my genetic family or something.
	Yeah.
	So, you know, people do that.
	I guess they try and attach themselves to other people.
	He seems to have went the George way.
	Well, anyway, sir, have a good night.
	Thank you.
	You bet.
	That was a strange view, indeed.
	All right, to the phones and whoever this is in Florida.
	Hello.
	Hey, Art.
	How are you tonight, sir?
	Well, just fine, actually.
	Good.
	You know, more and more I'm starting to think that a lot of these mass shootings that have been occurring tragically, I'm starting to think that the government has a connection to it.
	When it comes to, you know, their experiments with mind control and things.
	I know that might sound a little strange, but I got this strange feeling.
	Sounds a little conspiratorial, to be honest, but you know what?
	You can't rule it out.
	It's so weird that you really can't, at this point, rule anything out.
	Well, why I'm saying that is because of, you know, them trying to get gun control and I really think they're trying to get rid of the Second Amendment.
	I got that strange feeling whenever... I know.
	Every single time, every single time, sir, it happens, we have the same arguments about gun control, right?
	Every time.
	It's happening more and more.
	Yeah.
	And when I watched Obama talking the other day about it, I just got the strange feeling.
	He was pushing it.
	Yeah, I know.
	I know.
	I know, and here's what I have to say about it, okay?
	And I think I said this on Facebook, we don't need gun control, we need mental health.
	What happened, Ronald Reagan was a president that I very much admired, but he did something during his tenure that I did not admire that much.
	He basically opened the doors of the mental asylums across America, and out they went Now, I think we have a mental health problem, not a gun problem.
	Guns are just things.
	People are the ones who decide to use them, and a decision to use one randomly, as in going into a school and shooting up a bunch of people so if that quote was accurate you can be in the news, that's crazy, isn't it?
	C-R-A-Z-Y, crazy.
	So that's just my opinion.
	I understand there are many.
	But that's mine.
	And we don't need gun control.
	We need control of people.
	Anyway, we have open lines tonight.
	Anything you want to talk about, I've got a special line.
	And if you think you're married to an alien, that's right, it's called I'm Married to an Alien line.
	If you're married to an alien, Call me at area code 575-208-7787.
	Let me give that one more time, because it's not a normal number we give out.
	Area code 575-208-7787.
	That said, let's, well now wait a minute, there we go, we've got one.
	Uh, are you married to an alien?
	Hello?
	Going once, going twice, he hung up.
	She was probably lurking in the background.
	Let's go to the state of Virginia.
	You're on the air.
	Hello.
	Hi, this is John in Danville, Virginia.
	Yes, John.
	Did you get the sheet music poster that I sent you for Somewhere in Time?
	I did not.
	Okay, be looking for a large brown vanilla envelope.
	My wife and I were out digging in an abandoned thrift store.
	It's about a three foot by two foot poster somewhere in time with sheet music on the back.
	Wow.
	I will look for it.
	Alright, one more quick point.
	I have a possibility to interview for a 9-1-1 dispatch position in a couple weeks.
	Any advice?
	Uh-huh.
	Um, sure.
	My advice is, before you do it, think very, very hard because it's a very, very hard job.
	I'm not saying don't do it.
	It's a great public service.
	Here's what I'm saying.
	I worked as a 9-1-1 dispatcher in Monterey County for a year.
	And for about half that time, you're in training.
	So they spend a very great deal of money training you.
	But it's a tough job.
	It's a really tough job.
	And it's such a hard job that you've got to decide what kind of person you are.
	Now, if you're the kind of person who can just, like, erase work when you're done and go home and live your life, then fine.
	The job is for you.
	If you cannot do that, then don't do it.
	Because you've got lives in your hand.
	every day people live and die by your decisions and even if you make the right decisions having people live and die while you know on your watch is going to get to you so think very hard before you begin training because it's a lot of training and a lot of work and you know it will It'll drain your soul if you're not careful.
	Let's go to Aaron on Skype.
	Hello, Aaron.
	Hi, Art.
	Hi.
	I want to talk about Mel's hole.
	I was wondering if you've had any contact with him after the 2002... No.
	No.
	The last word I had that was at Mel was So, based on everything you know, I mean, you've had private conversations with him and stuff.
	Is there anything you have that you could pursue to advance the story?
	Well, there are some recent photographs of what is said to be Mel's hole.
	Now, I don't know if it's true up near Ellensburg.
	I don't know if it's true or not, but I do have somebody looking into Millsville.
	I don't want to go too far into it, but the answer to your question is, yes, I'm pursuing info.
	Actually, I sent you an email a couple months ago with a picture that I took from the street in Ellensburg.
	Yeah, you posted it on the website.
	It got like 6,000 views.
	Was that, in your opinion, Mel's hole?
	I don't know.
	It's really strange on Google Earth.
	It's like this area is like all like plowed in a circular pattern and there's like a hole like in the middle and measuring it on Google Earth it's about nine feet in diameter like Mel said.
	So you know I went out there and And just, uh, you know, took a picture from the road I didn't want to trespass on.
	All right, well, look, keep me informed, and if you do any investigation, uh, please contact me right away.
	That's all I can say.
	And, and I do know a little more, but I, I don't want to talk out of school here.
	Outside the country, uh, Jaffe, I believe it is.
	Hello.
	No, no, no, no, no!
	No?
	Ho, ho, ho!
	Are we live, Art?
	Well, yeah, sure.
	When I say you're on the air, when I say something like you're on the air, that has meaning.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	Hey, listen, I'm a newbie to Skype, and what I was kind of struggling with was getting to exchange, what is it, contact information.
	But you don't have to, see, you don't, okay, listen, you don't have to exchange contact information.
	All you've got to do is put in add, and then, by the way, where are you?
	I am in South Korea.
	South Korea, okay.
	So you just add MITD55 and voila, we appear in your contacts.
	Then after that when you hit it, here you are.
	You know what's really funny is I just I was just testing actually you know I was just testing to see what was wrong because I tried like three times this is the third time now I try to get you to exchange contact information yeah and it I just out of the blue I called and then I tried to disconnect this holy holy camoly you know yes we're you know I don't this is not good I want to get out of here so you got me now I'm all right where what part of South Korea Uh, it's a couple hours south of Seoul.
	I've been here since 2002.
	Alright.
	It's a fascinating experience, you know, that's for darn sure.
	Are you there in the military or as a civilian?
	I've been working here since 2002 as a professional elf.
	Seriously?
	Yeah.
	You know, I'm a big guy and everything, but I've managed to make a fair deal of money that way.
	Wow.
	Not even just Christmas either, but all times of the year.
	So you work in Korea as a professional elf?
	Yeah, absolutely.
	Hey, this is career night.
	I send some people back sometimes, but it kind of catches them off guard, but that's the deal.
	I think it's wonderful.
	How do the South Koreans like you?
	Uh, it's problematic.
	It's problematic.
	So, uh, it's a mixed bag, really.
	Me, personally, or just foreigners in general?
	Well, both.
	Well, I, you know, I'm married to a Korean lady, and, uh, it's been that way for a few years now, so... Koreans have some of the most beautiful women in the world.
	They do.
	There's no doubt about it.
	Yeah, yeah.
	You won't hear any argument from me, uh, as far as that goes.
	But let me tell you, I'll let you in on something here, Art, before you let me go.
	Professional Elf, English language facilitator.
	Trade market, baby.
	It's a joke.
	I got it.
	I got it.
	All right, thanks.
	I got to go.
	Take care.
	Professional Elf.
	Yes.
	He wouldn't argue with that, would he?

	I'm married to an alien line.
	You think you're married to an alien, and there must be many of you.
	And I understand your reluctance to talk about it.
	In fact, you better be sure that you're alone when you talk about it.
	And you better be sure that your alien mate is not listening.
	Because, well, you know why.
	So if you're married to an alien, area code 575-208-7787.

	on the air me you okay yeah we talked early You've got to be there when I say hello.
	Yes, yes.
	Her grandfather was a foundling, which, like I was telling you, I'm not necessarily sure what the parameters of an alien is.
	Well, look, you don't call up a radio program that's looking for people who are married to an alien if you're not sure you're married to an alien.
	I didn't say that out loud, did I?
	I don't even know where to begin.
	I would begin at the beginning, and as I mentioned before I picked up the line, I'd make doggone sure that she wasn't listening to you.
	I know.
	Yeah, I know.
	Yeah, she's in there watching Blue Bloods.
	She's watching Blue Bloods, huh?
	Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
	No, no, no.
	Everybody worships this person.
	By the way, have you, sir, have you seen her bleed?
	No, not necessarily, no.
	Okay.
	And her skin is smooth, like normal, none of that nonsense.
	So, what about her eyes?
	Dark.
	Dark, huh?
	For boating?
	Black.
	Almost like black.
	Black.
	Black eyes.
	Really?
	Doesn't this... I mean, don't you sometimes go to bed and look over and go... Yeah.
	Exactly.
	Exactly, huh?
	Yeah.
	When she's wiping me with a pillow or just herself or getting too hot.
	I've been touched by a hand that was about 200 degrees at night.
	Really?
	Yeah.
	At 200 degrees you would be scorched.
	Yeah, I might have exaggerated that one.
	Okay.
	So she's hot stuff.
	Yeah.
	All right, listen, I'm going to terminate this.
	Thank you.
	I've got one question for you before we go, if you don't mind.
	I'm sorry for wasting everybody's time, but what happened to Ted Rice?
	Who's Ted Rice?
	The Cosmic Connector.
	Who's he?
	Remember him?
	No.
	You don't remember?
	No.
	He was one of your...
	Sorry, I just don't remember him.
	Unless that was his pseudoname.
	at a television show about. Oh, I've never saw it. Years ago. You never met the man? No. That's crazy.
	Never even heard of him. But, but, uh, Billy Goodman, but other than that, thank you. You're
	very welcome. Sorry. I just don't remember him unless, uh, unless that was a pseudo name.
	Uh, I think I might've heard Billy Goodman at the end if I did. Uh, yes, indeed.
	Billy Goodman was a competitor of mine and a friend, too.
	Billy and I stayed in touch years and years and years later.
	I think I heard him say Billy Goodman at the end, that that was his radio name.
	If it was, yes, I knew Billy.
	I'm sorry, he's passed away now, but he did a show very much like this one in Las Vegas at the time I did it.
	I think he's still on the line.
	Is that who you're talking about?
	Yes.
	Yes.
	Oh, heck yeah, sure, of course.
	Glory, euphoria.
	Absolutely.
	Was a great guy.
	He and I had a lot of fun together.
	So, yeah.
	I'm sorry he passed away.
	Yeah, sorry he passed away and he's very much missed.
	But he picked up on the same kind of stuff that I was doing back then.
	And that's a lot of years ago in Las Vegas.
	That brings back memories indeed.
	Let's go to, I think it is Krista, is that correct, on Skype?
	We're through.
	Krista?
	Hi!
	Hello there.
	Hi, this is Stan and Krista from Esperance, Washington.
	Welcome to the program.
	Hi, thank you, Roswells, and this is Stan Jay on Bell Gap.
	My wife has a story about the ghost that she encountered that she's going to tell you about.
	All right.
	So you made the call, and then she gets to do the talking.
	I'm coaching her through it.
	I've been listening to you for years, and she's a newbie.
	I grew up listening to you, actually.
	Really?
	Yes, I grew up through my grandparents.
	My grandparents listened to you and I like... I so love hearing that stuff.
	I remember my nightmares.
	I would wake up and you were playing on the radio.
	They'd leave the radio on and you would come on and the kids would all hear the scary stories and stuff.
	Yes.
	Anyway, go ahead.
	Um, no, so, I, uh, when I was, uh, when I was in junior high, we went to, uh, we, we went to, um... Whisper it.
	Charleston?
	We went to, uh, we... You know what?
	You're really nervous, aren't you?
	I am.
	Alright, just relax.
	Take a nice, deep breath.
	Uh, when you were in junior high, you went to, it sounded like Charleston.
	Is that right?
	It was in the South.
	We'll, we'll just, we'll, we'll... Charleston is a beautiful city.
	All the old buildings.
	Well, yes.
	Gorgeous.
	So, we went, we went to Charleston.
	Okay.
	We, um... We, we went on this ghost tour, and it was my very first experience.
	With anything ghost related.
	And, um...
	Anyway, as she was walking along during the ghost tour, she felt something tap her on the back.
	Okay.
	And as she turned around, I'm trying to help her along.
	There was nothing there, but there was a candle that appeared to be lit that nobody else saw.
	Absolutely nobody else saw.
	Okay.
	So it was basically a ghost candle.
	And supposedly, in this specific house, that was what happened.
	People would see this specific candle being lit.
	Okay.
	You said you were on a tour, right?
	Yes.
	So there were others there?
	There were other people.
	It was a group of other middle school students and... Everybody with you did not see the candle that you saw, is that correct?
	There was one other person that I talked to after the fact that saw this candle being lit, but nobody else actually saw the candle lit.
	So she had somebody, a witness to this.
	It wasn't just her.
	I wonder why just two, when there's so many, why only two would see it, especially when it was, you know, like the legend of the place, right?
	Yeah.
	We were also, so the girl that actually experienced this, she actually also felt a tug.
	A tug?
	She was the only other person that I spoke to in my specific group that felt a tug on her shoulder.
	Were you guys in, like, the very back or something?
	We were.
	Yeah.
	Well, there you go.
	All right.
	Now, I've got a question for you, too, all right?
	Uh-huh.
	You're in the same room?
	Yes.
	So, as you look at each other, I mean really examine each other, is there anything somewhat
	alien about the other?
	I don't know.
	This is not a joke.
	I think my wife might have a more interesting answer to that question than I would.
	Alright.
	He definitely... No, spill it.
	Go ahead.
	Let it out.
	He definitely has a more, an open, he's definitely much more open to the prospect of aliens and ghosts.
	I tried mind control, Art, and it doesn't work.
	That's the only problem.
	I think I can debunk that.
	Well, when she tries it on you, does it work?
	Yes.
	Yes.
	See, there you have it.
	All right.
	Yet another happy couple, human and hybrid.
	You two have a wonderful night, and thank you for the call.
	You too, Art.
	Thank you.
	I love it.
	Um, let's go to the phones.
	You're on the air.
	Hello?
	Hello?
	Yes, hello.
	Hey, can you hear me?
	I hear you.
	Okay.
	Um, yes, I'm hoping that you'll have David Jacobs back on again.
	Depend on it.
	Yes.
	Actually, the truth is, I'll tell you what.
	It's going to be a while, but he's already scheduled.
	There's no way I could not bring Dr. Jacobs back.
	What he said was too mind-blowing, frankly, to not get a follow-up.
	Well, see, I wanted to say something about what he mentioned about people having telepathy.
	Sure.
	I had some UFO experiences, and I met this very strange man.
	After I had them, well not only could that person call me on the phone and tell me what I was thinking, I also watched them walk out of their own body into someone else's.
	And that, I wondered if he could tell us whether or not anyone else Well, it's something that you wouldn't keep quiet about, I would think.
	Somebody walking out of a body into another body.
	Yikes.
	So, yes, number one, he's scheduled.
	Number two, yes, you can ask him that.
	That show really was, for me, a mind blower in every way.
	In fact, if you are a time traveler, And you can go back and listen to the Dr. Jacobs Show.
	Do it.
	That's one show you don't want to miss.
	Trust me on this.
	If you're a time traveler, do it.
	Barbara, on Skype, you're on the air.
	Yeah, hi.
	Hi.
	Hey Art, I'm sorry you're having trouble there.
	Oh, that's all right.
	I hope things work out nicely.
	I do too.
	That's really my hope.
	But anyway, I wanted to tell you this story.
	It's kind of a strange one, and I know people may have trouble with it, but it is a true story.
	Okay.
	A few years ago, my sister passed away.
	She was very ill, and she was in the hospital.
	Right.
	And we were called in.
	She was in ICU.
	We called in by the nurse.
	Things did not, you know, were going badly.
	Right.
	My niece, her daughter, and I went in.
	My nephew, her son, was on his way.
	We all gathered around the bed.
	She was hooked up to a lot of tubes, her blood pressure, her heart monitor, and they had her bed cranked up in a sitting position because she had trouble breathing and she was on an oxygen mask, which she had been on for days.
	She could not breathe without the oxygen.
	Got it.
	At one point, I saw her blood pressure fall very, very low.
	She began to flatline and the nurse said to me, she's passing.
	I looked at my sister.
	My mother was, you know, very close to my sister and crying.
	I told my sister, I looked at her and she had been awake for all of this and was still there with us.
	I looked at her and I said, please don't leave us.
	Come back as a ghost.
	Now, I hope that doesn't sound like a terrible thing, but I didn't want to lose my sister.
	I understand.
	My sister actually was a little surprised and looked up at me.
	And she passed.
	Wow.
	My mom was crying terribly hard, and my niece was crying, and I was crying.
	Of course.
	And after a little while of us all just standing there crying, the nurse said, I have another room you can all gather in.
	You know, let's go to the other room.
	We all began to walk out slowly.
	I was the last.
	They were pulling the tubes.
	She had no blood pressure.
	She had a flat line.
	No heart rate.
	Was not breathing.
	They took the mask off my sister.
	She had not been off this mask in a week.
	She was totally gone.
	I turned and looked at her as we left the room, and I saw her speaking.
	I saw her mouth forming words.
	I just stood there.
	I told my mother.
	I said, do you see that?
	She's talking.
	My mother didn't seem to acknowledge it.
	She was just too upset.
	I couldn't hear her, but I could plainly see her mouth forming words, not slowly, fast.
	You are talking about the body Of your sister.
	The physical body of your sister.
	Not a ghostly figure, but... That's right.
	The physical body.
	You do understand that it is possible that muscles and nerves... Yes, but I saw words being formed.
	Wow.
	I saw her... She was not spasming.
	God.
	I do know about that.
	Okay.
	And I didn't know what to think.
	I still have never heard of a story like this.
	Nor have I.
	I am a nurse.
	Yeah, this is absolutely a new one on me.
	Yes, and that's why I wanted to tell you this, because I have never heard of this before.
	And you could not make out any of the words?
	I was very far across the room, and to this day I regret so much that I did not walk over, but I was just so stunned.
	I just looked at her, and nobody else saw this.
	Could see that her lips were actually, she was speaking, I could see her forming words with her lips.
	I could not understand, she was speaking very fast.
	That's what happened.
	Yeah, that's an amazing, amazing story and maybe you can be comforted in the fact that she tried.
	Well, that's the only thing I can think of, and I never... I will always regret that I did not understand what she was trying to say.
	Sure.
	Except that maybe she was trying to tell me, I'm not gone.
	And I wanted to tell the story because I know we are all wondering, you know, what's next?
	You bet.
	And I'm telling the truth, and believe me, I am as sane as, you know, can be.
	I believe you, and that's a heck of a story.
	It is nice to have you back.
	I've never gotten to tell you that.
	Thank you.
	It's wonderful.
	Thank you so much and thank you for that story.
	Here's what I would say.
	We explore all the time what might be coming next.
	It is possible that she did form words and that it was done essentially from the other side.
	You know, the physical manipulation.
	It's also possible that we don't understand all we think we do about the process of dying.
	And I know scientifically they say, look, flatlined, not breathing, no heartbeat, no mental activity, dead.
	Right?
	I don't think we understand it all, and I don't think it is nearly as instantaneous as we believe it to be.
	But these are, you know, all things we mortal humans can only wonder about, short of absolute science that tells us what death is conclusively.
	We don't know.

	Let's go to the phones and say, hey there in Florida, you're on the air.
	Yes, Mr. Bell?
	Hi.
	Hey, my name's Ryan.
	I'm calling from Pensacola.
	I just had a quick question for you.
	Sure.
	When you had your documentary show, you had some EVP, like a team who did EVPs on there.
	Yes.
	I was wondering if you plan on having them back on?
	Well, we've already had them back on.
	And they're going to be on again, I believe, toward Halloween.
	So if you're a, if you are a time traveler and you can listen to older shows, you want to go back and listen to the GIS show.
	We did that some time ago.
	Okay.
	And is that the name of the group?
	Yes, it is.
	The Ghost Investigators Society.
	Okay, great.
	Yeah, that was just a really spooky show, and I was a trucker when I was listening to it.
	It really helped me pass the miles.
	You know, I often wondered, sir, if you were out in the middle of essentially nowhere in a truck, and you were hearing these voices like that, how it would affect you?
	It must have been weird.
	Well, I'd probably pull over and get some sleep if I started hearing voices like that.
	All right, well listen, thank you.
	We're going to have him back around Halloween, we believe, so there you go.
	Okay, well thank you.
	All right, thank you very much on Skype.
	I think it's Misty.
	Hi, Art.
	More than Misty.
	Misty and her husband.
	No, just me.
	Just you.
	I could have sworn I heard a man's voice.
	Oh, well, no.
	I'm not married and live alone.
	Okay, in that case, I would look around very carefully right now and make sure that there's nobody there.
	Okay, you're scaring me now.
	Go right ahead.
	So, I wanted to tell someone, a lot of people I guess, that would believe a story.
	I've told this story before, but always to like family members that Okay.
	But when I was 13, I started having memories of an abduction experience that happened to me and my family when I was about four or five.
	The memories were traumatic and came back over about a two-week period of time.
	When I talked to my parents about the particular situation that I remembered, they validated that these folks were at our house that got abducted with us.
	And they validated some things, but they didn't remember the spaceship or any of that.
	Let me tell you this story really quick.
	I woke up to a bunch of commotion in the house.
	There was a younger couple that had been, my father was in the military, And this couple were in the military as well, and they'd been playing cards when I got sent to bed that night.
	And so I woke up to a bunch of commotion, my dad hollering, just yelling and screaming, coming out of the living room.
	And I come out of the hallway, and I look, and my dad looks at me directly in my face, and I could tell that he forgot about me, and the front door's open.
	Everybody's leaving and scrambling, and he's like yelling at me, Get out, get in the car.
	And we go out and my dad has a Malibu, which he confirmed that for me later because I didn't know that at the time, but we got in the car and he used to race stock cars.
	Uh, also, um, as a, as a side thing that we like to do.
	All right.
	So we all jumped in the car.
	The younger couple was in the back seat and I'm in the back seat with him.
	And my dad tries to start the car and it doesn't, it won't go anywhere.
	And they all know what's going on.
	And the only thing I really know at that time is, is that I needed to, I wanted to take something from my bedroom or from the house with me.
	Even though I didn't have it, I had wanted to, because I wanted to prove that this time That it really happened.
	So, I think that it happened before, but I don't remember a before.
	I just know at the time, I knew it had happened before.
	And the car wouldn't start, and the guy in the backseat says, let's get in my car, Ray.
	You drive.
	And so, my father and we all scramble, and they have a little Volkswagen, and we scramble in, and I'm in the backseat again, and I'm sitting in this younger couple's lap, pretty much, and Dad tries to start the car, and the car won't start.
	Right.
	And then everybody just, everybody but me, just all the yelling and everything just stops.
	Everybody just turns off.
	And my dad gets out of the car, and then my mother gets out of the car, and then the couple that I'm on their lap, they're just like leaving me and bouncing me off onto the seat as they get out of the car.
	And I see my mother walking around the car, and I just really wanted to go with her, so I get out of the car and I start to try to follow her, and she's not there.
	And I look and I see my father's feet lift up off the ground and he just starts floating into the air.
	And I look up and my mother is very close to this huge, huge spaceship that I can't see the sky.
	It's like above our house.
	So you're saying they were in the middle of being abducted?
	Yes, and I was still on the ground and I could see all of them going up into this ship.
	And I didn't know what it was.
	I didn't know it was a ship.
	I mean, I was just little, you know, I didn't understand.
	I wasn't afraid.
	I just I did want to go with my mother and I was having some anxiety about that.
	Of course.
	And then all of a sudden I felt these like long fingers go around my waist from behind and lift me up off the ground.
	And I turned to try to see what was behind me.
	And all I saw was like If you could imagine what an astronaut's helmet would look like, only it was like reflecting, that's all I saw was like that mask.
	Gotcha.
	And it was reflecting, I could see it reflecting.
	Alright, we don't have a lot of time, so what happened?
	It touched me with something cold on the back of my neck.
	And that was it.
	The next thing I remember, I woke up in my bed and I was Just beating the heck out of my neck, trying to wipe this cold thing off.
	And your parents were back?
	Everybody was there.
	Yeah, everybody was there, including the couple that were asleep in the living room on the couch, which was like, that would never have happened, but they were there.
	And my parents remembered that they were there the next morning as well.
	And nobody remembered any of this experience except you?
	They remembered that my dad had some car trouble, and that the couple that was there had car trouble, and they said that's why they spent the night.
	Wow.
	You know, if I were you, I would go and get myself hypnotized, I think, and try and find out if that's the truth.
	I mean, it's possible that as a youngster you formed some kind of memory that wasn't real.
	I'm not saying it's a false story, I'm saying that It may or may not be a real memory, but if it were me, and I had a memory like that, I'd sure as heck want to know if it was real.
	So there is that.
	You might think about it.
	Sharky, outside the country somewhere.
	Hello.
	Oh, hey, Art.
	Hey.
	Where are you?
	I'm actually in Canada.
	Ontario, to be specific.
	Aw, you're on the wrong line.
	Yeah, my bad.
	Okay, Sharky, I'm sorry.
	Try us on the North American line.
	That's for people outside of North America, which is MITD55.
	If you're outside of North America, MITD55, if you're married to an alien... We've got some pretty good ones tonight.
	If you're married to an alien, then you can call I'm Married to an Alien line, and that number is area code 575.

	I know I don't give that out enough.
	I'm sorry.
	When we have a special line, Area Code 575-208-7787.
	Hey, you know what?
	I also should open the first-time caller line.
	If you have never called the show, wherever you are, it's Area Code 775-285-5800.
	That's for first-time callers.
	775-285-5800.
	Okay, let's go to... how about... here.
	I think we're going to California somewhere.
	Hi.
	Hi.
	Yes, this is John, Apple Valley, California.
	Yo.
	Hey, so I wanted to share a... I guess you would say a time-traveling, out-of-body experience.
	Kind of going with your show the other night.
	Okay.
	All right.
	I was 18 at the time, living, probably 18 or 20, and living at home.
	Now, let me preface this by saying, out-of-body experiences aren't something that fits my religious beliefs.
	It's not something I would want.
	So, I went to sleep this particular night, and when I woke up, I realized that it was daylight, and my room, my bedroom, was reverting back to when I was a little boy.
	And I could feel myself reverting back to a child.
	Really?
	And before I knew it, I was nine again, sitting on the floor, playing with my toys, and I could hear my mother calling me.
	Wow.
	And I realized at this moment that I was out of my body, and it freaked me out.
	And you realized that you were back in time?
	That's what it felt.
	It felt as though I was back in time to when I was nine years old.
	Were you physically identical?
	I don't know.
	It felt as though I regressed into myself back then.
	Right, right.
	If that makes sense.
	It does, it does.
	And then, so I realized I was having this experience and it frightened me and I willed myself back into my body and it took a lot of effort and finally, like with a slam, boom, I was in my body and I Like I had been underwater for five minutes.
	I came up gasping for air and my heart was racing.
	Right.
	And so it took me a while to go back to sleep, as you can imagine.
	I can.
	And I had this exact same experience happen three times in a row that same night.
	Wow.
	And never since?
	No, never since.
	So that night I remembered the movie, the Christopher Reeve movie, Somewhere in Time.
	So I turned on the radio to tether myself to the here and now.
	And it worked.
	And I went to sleep and didn't have any other experiences.
	I thought you were going to say you got my show and totally lost it.
	No.
	All right.
	Well, that's an amazing story.
	And maybe, who knows, maybe three times in one night, maybe you were back.
	I think it happens.
	It sure felt real.
	Well, what do we know about time, right?
	We think it's linear and just progresses and you can never move within or beyond the present march of time, but maybe you can.
	Thank you very much for the call.
	Thank you.
	Good one.
	On our first time caller line, you are on the air.
	Hello.
	Hi.
	Good evening.
	Good morning.
	Yes, yes, whatever.
	Yes, thanks for taking my call.
	The reason I'm calling, I'm a longtime listener of you and I appreciate your radio shows.
	The reason I'm calling is because when I was a very little girl, into my teens and even as an adult, I've had night terrors.
	Night terrors that my siblings would just, I'd wake up and they were in my room, what are you doing?
	And they'd say, I'd be screaming.
	And throwing stuff, and I wouldn't remember anything.
	Oh, night terrors are terrible.
	They are.
	They're horrible.
	My husband sleeps with one eye open, believe me.
	He's still not used to them.
	Anyhow, one in particular, I hadn't been seven or eight years old, you know, second grade, and something was in my bed with me.
	The only way I can explain it is it was slimy and...
	Had a form.
	It was at the end of my bed where my feet would go.
	And every time my feet would touch it, I would start hollering.
	And finally my dad came and he took whatever was inside my bed and threw it away in my trash can.
	And to this day I have no idea what it was.
	So this was not part of a night terror.
	This was the real McCoy.
	Yes.
	Oh yeah.
	I remember everything.
	My dad said he, uh, he just kind of winked at me.
	He's like, oh, Sylvia, it was just a nightmare.
	I'm like, no, it really happened.
	You were there.
	He doesn't seem to remember it, but it was some sort of grayish, jelly-ish type matter.
	To this day, I have no idea what it was.
	Not something you want to feel with your feet, do you?
	No, that's, yeah, it was pretty disgusting.
	Well, listen, what took you so long to call?
	Uh, well, you know, I get scared calling radio shows.
	People, you know, really, I don't know.
	I don't know.
	Nah, we're easy.
	We're really easy.
	I'm a big fan of you.
	I really am.
	I'm a huge fan of you.
	Well, thank you.
	And thanks for the first time call.
	Really.
	Alright.
	Have a good evening.
	You take care.
	Going straight to the Alien on Married to an Alien line.
	You're on the air.
	Oh, hey Art.
	How you doing?
	I'm okay.
	This is Mark.
	Mark from Van Nuys and I'm really scared calling in because I just found this out.
	Recently, and I'm afraid to actually ask her about it, you know?
	Well, I understand the trepidation.
	Let's try this so we're sure.
	What has led you to believe that she, well, is one of them?
	Well, I would have a lot of dreams, you know, like UFO-related Dreams and whatnot, but I could never put my finger on it.
	Yeah, but that's you.
	That's you, not her.
	Well, I'll tell you what happened recently.
	Recently, I get up the night to use the bathroom and I look over and she's shape-shifting on me while she's in bed.
	Oh, that's a big tip right there.
	Yeah.
	And what was she shape-shifting into, if I can ask?
	Well, she'd be in a regular form, like a reptilian type skin.
	And it's happened like three times now.
	That's a real mood crusher.
	I mean, when you look over it, yeah.
	Have you had the guts yet to even talk to her about it?
	No, that's what I was just saying.
	I'm really afraid.
	I would be very careful about bringing this up.
	Well, honey, no, I'm just, I'm talking to Ron.
	Oh, God.
	you're that i take it well you know uh... i picture
	reptilian created pieces of whoever we were just talking to all over the room right now
	now.
	Mm-mm-mm.
	First time caller on the line, you're on the air, hello.
	Hi, this is Connor in Oklahoma.
	What do you think, I don't know, maybe you weren't listening, Connor, what do you think happened to that last caller?
	Oh, that's easy Artie.
	He was got.
	I mean, she got him.
	Gutted him.
	Oh yeah.
	Eviscerated him.
	Yeah, he's a goner, that's for sure.
	Alright, well I, you know, I want these people who are calling this line to be really, really careful because, well, because of what you just heard.
	Alright, anyway, what's up?
	Scary stuff.
	Um, well Martin, I was going to call about some stuff that happened to me.
	I believe as a small child I had a series of encounters with I guess what most people would consider a demon.
	Really?
	A demon?
	Yeah, I'd say so.
	This is the first time you've ever called this program.
	It is.
	It is.
	What kind of demon?
	Well, I guess I should have just kind of started.
	I mean, I must have been about, I have very distinct memories of being a young child, maybe four, and When my parents put me down to go to bed.
	Right.
	They would leave the room.
	Sure.
	And then after a couple minutes or so, I would hear a voice start talking to me.
	Usually from behind my bed or from another part of the room.
	And it's hard to remember distinct things that it would say, but it was very, uh, demented and kind of, I don't know, it liked making me upset.
	Probably not hard to do with a four-year-old.
	I'm sure you were totally freaking out.
	Oh yeah, totally.
	And so, you know, excuse me, I'm a little nervous.
	It's alright.
	Take a deep breath.
	Try to remember.
	So, yeah, I have these distinct memories though.
	They would put me to bed.
	I'd hear this voice.
	I'd cry.
	They'd go away.
	They'd come back in the room.
	They'd check things out.
	They'd leave.
	Because there wouldn't be anything there, and they wouldn't hear anything.
	And then, a couple minutes later, it started talking to me again.
	And the only thing that I remember, the only sentence I really distinctly remember is one time it asked me if I wanted to die.
	Oh, man.
	Yeah.
	And how does a four-year-old answer that question?
	Exactly.
	I think... I can't remember what I said to that.
	Well, if your parents had you trained as a polite youngster, you would have said, no thank you.
	Right.
	You know, I'm not sure.
	I would have been pretty freaked out.
	But no, otherwise, I did It's hard to tell if these were... I would hear it and I have waking memories of that that have never gone away from me.
	I just never forgot them.
	And you never will forget them.
	Thank you.
	That's horrible.
	Horrible, horrible, horrible.
	Alright, so all the lines are filling, filling, filling in full.
	Let me go to Skype and say hi, Tom.
	Hello Art.
	Hi.
	Roswell, long time listener.
	Thank you.
	Having a panic attack?
	Right now?
	Oh, you know, gee, the anxiety in the gut.
	Just getting on the air is just incredible.
	Well, you'll get over it.
	I'll take it.
	I'm trying to breathe deep.
	Yeah, deep breath.
	But you know those questions that you have, those ones that sort of burn into your soul?
	Yes.
	I've got a bunch of those too, just like yours.
	Sure.
	That after death stuff?
	What happens to people when they die?
	It's the biggest question for all of mankind.
	There's no question about it.
	And I try to do shows that attempt to answer that question.
	It's not answered yet for me.
	Not absolutely.
	You know, there are some people, I really envy them, who have faith.
	You know, they have such absolute faith.
	That there will be paradise or heaven or whatever waiting for them.
	And I envy that.
	I have had a number of experiences actually talking to the dead.
	They sort of show up in my imagination.
	Yeah, you know more than I do.
	If you talk to the dead, you're ahead of me.
	And you know, it's really pretty easy.
	I'm like 73, I'm about your age, and I have outlived just all but a very small handful of my friends.
	I'm 70, so you're three years older.
	Right, right.
	Yeah, let's not stretch it.
	I'll be there soon enough.
	Or not.
	So back in 99, I'm standing in front of the library, waiting for it to open, and my mother pops in.
	Sort of in your mind's eye, in your imagination, she starts talking to me.
	Well, I thought, you know, I'm just imagining this.
	And she's saying, you know, I just left the body and they won't let me pass over because I've got too many unresolved conflicts.
	Really?
	So she stayed with me like that for about six years.
	And I just kind of, you know, discomfited as imagination.
	But five days later, after I had the first vision, I get a postcard in the mail from my brother who has, you know, misplaced my phone number and couldn't call me when she died.
	So he sends me a postcard and telling me that he, you know, the time that she passed.
	And sure enough, it was exactly the time I was standing in front of the library.
	Wow.
	Um, and she was really good at conflict.
	Oh man, she was, you know, she was, had that destructive streak.
	She'd go after people that she thought were doing wrong things and she just created so much conflict for herself.
	So, you know, that was her, that was her sin.
	She was like begging forgiveness.
	I said, Ma, you know, don't beg forgiveness from me.
	I know you did all, you did the best you could.
	And I take it she, she finally did after six years pass on?
	Well, she, uh, Gradually faded away, and I don't see her anymore.
	That was back in 99, so you know, I don't see her anymore.
	Pretty amazing story anyway.
	I have had a number of people appear in my imagination just like that.
	I used to rent rooms, you know, being in here in Honolulu, you can hardly afford an apartment alone.
	So, you know, you rent out the bedrooms to whoever will rent them.
	In the early 80s, I was renting to college students, and this one lab stayed the usual year like they do.
	And, uh, I kept seeing him in my imagination, standing right there at the corner of the hallway, kind of on the other side of my computer desk, looking at me.
	You know, this occurred so many times.
	Finally, I just talked to him, and I said, I said, Johnny, are you, uh, are you out of the body?
	And he said, yeah.
	Yeah, I died of AIDS in 87.
	Oh my God.
	And I said to him, uh, well, what are you doing here looking at me?
	Didn't you, aren't you supposed to go somewhere?
	And he said, well, I don't know.
	I always thought about you because you're the only man that ever loved me.
	You washed my clothes for nothing.
	You cooked for me for nothing while I was going to school.
	You treated me better than anybody else I ever knew.
	You treated me better than my father.
	And that's kind of like I just feel like I'm attracted to you and when I'm with you, your heart energy seems to dispel the negative stuff that's on this side that's trying to get after me.
	Yeah, I think most of the negative stuff is on this side.
	Thank you very much for the call.
	At least I certainly hope it's that way, don't you?
	That the negative stuff is, uh, on this side?
	And it's not so negative over there?
	Not a lot of time.
	First time caller line.
	You are on the air.
	Hello?
	Hello, uh, Bell.
	Yes, sir.
	This is Steve from Syracuse.
	I love listening to You Know What I Thought.
	I haven't written it, but I was going to write.
	Art Bell, Mr. Freedom of Speech Incarnate.
	I hope so.
	You have no screeners, and I'm so happy to have you on the line.
	I got good news.
	Yes, sir.
	Okay, the good news is, I have a calling very much like St.
	Thomas Aquinas had, or like Jesus had, where you're trying to care about the whole world and make it better.
	I could go into detail.
	I was born... Hey, I was born on six days after D-Day.
	I'm another Gemini, but I'm a Gemini monkey.
	And you are living up to your, what I call, thirty-three birth paths, because you've got You care, you're the best listener in the world, except for the second opinion I have.
	But the good news is, oh, I love your sense of humor, and you care for people, and you're such... Okay, let me talk.
	I'm an autistic.
	I see, okay.
	I was born, I was a twin, born six days after D-Day.
	I think that's important.
	I think the whole world was playing like mad for that D-Day invasion.
	Yeah.
	What I wanted to be when I was about two and a half, three years old, my mother was reading the Pied Piper of Hammond.
	You know that story?
	I do.
	I do.
	Well, I identified with him.
	I was all excited, and then her response was, he's evil.
	Well, boy, did that pop my balloons.
	I was guilt-ridden and self-doubting.
	Uh-huh, you're not evil.
	And as for toast, twelve.
	Okay, well listen, you're not evil.
	I understand you are autistic, and you're definitely not evil, so... It's pathetic autistic savant!
	Pathetic autistic savant.
	Remember that.
	Well, savant means genius in one category... I know it!
	That's what I think about.
	I'm a genius about understanding the problems of the world to make it better.
	Okay, I hope you do, but I gotta go.
	Sorry, we've got a break, and I have to abide by these times.
	This is The Night in the Desert.

	Where are you?
	Um, I didn't know this was overseas.
	Oh, Ryan, you're on the wrong line.
	Thank you, and have a good night.
	Sorry, those are the rules.
	And actually, I passed up other overseas callers because I had Ryan holding.
	So to whoever was trying to get in, give it another try, those folks, and I'll get you on.
	You know, as we're making rules, Once again, in the Skype world, to get hold of this show, MITD 5.1 for North America, and MITD 5.5 for the rest of the world.
	Those rules are really important.
	Let us go to Jessie.
	Hi, Jessie.
	Hi.
	Oh my gosh.
	I've been listening to you for so long.
	Really?
	I'm calling in because I have a story about getting kicked out of the astral plane.
	Really?
	Were you out of body at the time?
	Yes, I was.
	When I was in high school, my last two years of high school, I really started getting into doing, like, astral projection.
	I mean, I can understand getting kicked out of high school.
	I can understand getting kicked out of a lot of things, but the astral plane, my goodness, what did you do?
	Well, I went to this place, and I always just called it the cathedral, because it was a cathedral.
	And, um, I went in and I found this office at one point, and there was a big, like, black window behind this desk.
	Yes.
	And if you sat in the chair and you turned around, you could, you could see stuff.
	Like what?
	Like stuff that you would have no idea, knowing.
	In other words, you were, you're saying like you were in a different place?
	I'm sorry?
	It's like you were in a different place?
	Um, it's like you were, it's almost like, it's almost like a, like a scrying.
	Okay.
	Kind of glass or something.
	Yes.
	Because you could ask to see something and you'd see it.
	Okay.
	Got it.
	And then you can verify it once you, you know, we're back in your body.
	All right.
	So pray tell, what did you do to get booted from the plane?
	I'm not really sure, but I went into that office at one point and there was, there was a man in like a charcoal gray suit with Just brilliant blue eyes and white hair and he turned around and said, you're not allowed to be here anymore.
	And he like snapped his fingers and I haven't been able to get back.
	Well, I guess that's kind of sad.
	I guess you feel like you did something wrong, but I'm sure you did not.
	Maybe you just met a real grouch.
	Surprising, I guess, because I'd been there so many times, and it was just, I don't know, it was unexpected.
	And so you've never been able to get back?
	Correct.
	Okay, well, listen, thank you very much for the story.
	I'm sorry to hear that.
	Can you imagine being able to get away to the astral plane, virtually at will, as she described, and then, I don't know, suddenly not being able to?
	Bummer.
	Outside the country somewhere.
	Peter.
	G'day, Art.
	Peter in Bendigo.
	Yes, sir.
	This is a story that I experienced I had about 17 years ago.
	I was at my ex's place.
	Yes.
	And I was trying to get to sleep.
	It was a very hot night.
	I had a fan at the end of the bed, and it was making this usual noise that they do.
	But I could hear a whispering noise also.
	And I was really annoyed because I was trying to sleep.
	I had to get to work earlier the next day.
	And I could hear this whispering noise, and I intently listened to it more and more, and
	then I could understand it was actually something speaking to me.
	And I heard something say, �Peter, get up� or �get out� or something like that.
	And I think it was �get up�.
	And so I went out to the hallway.
	I was really frightened at that point.
	I thought there was some sort of warning.
	And so I went out to the hallway to check on the kids.
	And I looked in one of the rooms and I saw that me stepdaughter seemed to be sleeping okay.
	So she was okay.
	So I went and checked on my son.
	He was fine, so then I checked the house and I checked the doors to make sure everything was closed.
	Sure.
	And I still felt a sense of danger, so I went back to my stepdaughter's room and I just checked on her a bit further to see if she really was okay.
	And I noticed that she wasn't actually sleeping on her back, her chest was slipping between the wall and the bed.
	She was slipping down between the wall and the bed.
	Oh God.
	And she was basically suffocating.
	Yeah, that's dangerous.
	Yeah, so I pulled her out and put her back on the bed and she sort of, she sat up in bed and she had one eye open and the other one was closed.
	And she sort of went into some sort of fit and breathed very rapidly.
	And I asked her if she was okay and she She nodded and said she was okay, and she seemed to roll over and go back to sleep.
	I pulled the bed out away from the wall so it couldn't happen again.
	All right.
	You saved your life.
	There's no question about it.
	And isn't it amazing, this sense of dread, this sense of danger that you felt that wouldn't go away until you got to it?
	Yeah.
	And it wouldn't let me sleep.
	I couldn't sleep before that.
	And when I went back to bed, I was able to sleep.
	But when I woke up the next day, I told my ex about it, and she said she just stared at the ceiling for hours after that and couldn't get back to sleep herself.
	Boy.
	Because it frightened her so much.
	That's a precognitive warning, and they're absolutely real.
	Thank you so much for that call.
	You saved a life.
	He saved a life.
	And I believe every single word of it.
	I've had precognitive experiences.
	One.
	And I know what it's like.
	It's not something you can ignore.
	It's like something that washes over you again and again and again and again, and it will nag at you and won't let you do anything else until you take care of it.
	It's amazing.
	Let's go to the first-time caller line.
	You're on the air.
	Hi.
	Hello.
	Hello.
	This is Eric from Ohio.
	Welcome.
	Welcome.
	Yes, and I am a first-time caller.
	All right.
	Listening to you for a long time.
	I'm a retired railroader and you used to be a companion in the middle of the night going to and from work.
	Really?
	Hey, the other night you had a gentleman on that was talking about MIBs or the Men in Black.
	That's correct, yes.
	And he made reference several times to John Keel writing about them.
	That's right.
	And I always loved his books.
	So, simple question, did you ever have the opportunity to interview John Keel?
	I did not.
	Okay.
	He seemed to have this thing with, well, he also talked about shadow people a lot, too, and tulpas and all that.
	I was going to call you in, try to call you then, but the fellow stole my thunder.
	He explained it all, so... Well, it was quite a show, and Shadow People is quite a topic, and I used to sort of... I'm going to be honest with you, I kind of blew it off in my mind when I began hearing from callers about Shadow People, and then suddenly it happened to me.
	And there's nothing like that to turn you around and make you realize, you know, Hey guy, this is real.
	Well, I'm a night owl, and I'll sit at my workbench, and sometimes I'll see stuff out of the corner of my eye, and I figure, well, 99% of them are just something that I can't explain, but who knows?
	Yeah, and then all of a sudden, when you least expect it, here comes that 1%.
	Yes.
	Well... Thank you.
	I'm going to have to go, because you've got your... Okay, thank you.
	Right, take care.
	He turned his radio off.
	I guess he thought I ended the call or something.
	But no, indeed.
	Let's go to Richard, somewhere outside the country.
	Hello.
	Hello, this is Richard from Northern Ireland.
	From where?
	Northern Ireland.
	Northern Ireland.
	Okay, yes, yes.
	Art, here's the thing.
	I'm already a female from Texas, and I think she might be an alien.
	You're what, talking to her on Skype?
	No, no, no, I'm married to her.
	You're married to her?
	And you think she's alien?
	Yeah, she's got her own language, Art.
	She has her own language, and she has... And not only that, Art, my stepkids and my grandchildren are infected as well.
	They say the same things.
	Are you sure it's not American English that you're objecting to?
	It's really a foreign language?
	Oh, I never thought about it.
	Richard, you're so out of here.
	See you later.
	Let's talk to Michelle, also out of the country.
	Hello.
	Hi, this is Michelle in Japan.
	Hi Michelle.
	I wanted to tell you, first of all, do you have any plans to do a Uh, Antichrist line again sometime soon?
	Cause I used to love when you would do those.
	You really liked the Antichrist lines?
	I loved those.
	They were just, they were always so ridiculous.
	And, and then you'd always scare the crap out of me every time you'd pull out that, uh, that, that Satan voice.
	Cause I would never be prepared for it.
	Um, okay, Michelle.
	Um, yes, I will do an Antichrist line again.
	Okay.
	Well, I have a quick story for you.
	I have no idea what this is, but I moved recently, and for the past three months or so, I've seen, maybe three times, I look out my window or out my balcony over at Mount Fuji, and I see what looks like a flare or a firework or something, but it's hovering over the base of Mount Fuji, not near the top.
	You know, Michelle, I've been hearing this about Fuji in Japan.
	I really have.
	I've heard other reports.
	Have you talked to others?
	No, I haven't.
	I can't figure out what in the world it is.
	It looks like, like I said, like a firework or something, but it'll hover for about a minute or so, and then it'll fade away, and then sometimes another one will kind of disappear.
	It'll come up slowly, and then it'll hover, and then after a minute or two, it's gone.
	Weird.
	It makes no sense.
	It doesn't move around like a UFO story.
	It doesn't disappear like a flare or a firework would.
	How about some pictures?
	You know, I tried that, but the problem is that Mount Fuji is just far enough away that you can't see him really hardly in the pictures.
	It just shows up as a little tiny dot.
	You can see it great with your eyes.
	Right.
	What you would need would be a camera with a really good zoom lens.
	Yeah, and unfortunately I have an iPhone and that's about it for camera for me.
	Gotcha.
	Well, iPhone doesn't do the trick.
	They're good cameras, but for anything at a distance, no way.
	But I am surprised you said you've heard this before.
	I have.
	I don't want to know more about that, because I've been wondering what the heck it could be, and I've not heard anything else.
	Let me see what I can find out, Michelle, but yes, there have been other sightings around Fuji.
	There's some stories on it, and I'll try and dig them out for you.
	Thanks, appreciate it.
	You're very welcome, and have a good night.
	Going to Skype over here, Brave Hooves, really?
	That's your name?
	Yeah, actually no, it's Alexander.
	I like Brave Hooves.
	Yeah, it's my, it's my YouTube name anyways.
	Okay.
	Um, I got a story for you.
	I live in Portland, Oregon.
	I'm not gonna say anything, but I'm the one who does your show at KXL.
	Oh, oh, okay.
	Excellent.
	Welcome.
	Yeah, and I was like, I need to call in.
	Anyways, um, I have the story.
	I went to this, um, with my dad.
	He does ghost hunting and stuff.
	Um, we went to go to this insane asylum.
	It's called Damish Insane Asylum.
	All right.
	There was this old church and we went inside of the, uh, The elevator.
	When we stepped in there, it was almost like there was something wrong with time.
	Like, we had this really dark feeling in our chest.
	The people that were with us were one of my really good friends, Shay, and his dad.
	Yes?
	We all stepped inside of this elevator, and the ten people that were around us, like the girls screaming, ah, ghosts, you know, they all vanished.
	Like, it's like somebody pulled a headphone jack right out of your ear.
	You're kidding.
	Yeah, and I said, where did they go?
	Yes.
	And I say, I need to get out of this elevator.
	We walk out of the elevator.
	I get a call from my phone, and the guy says, we've been gone for four hours, and the cops were over there waiting for us.
	Wow.
	So everybody had a little experience with time, and what a strange one too.
	Yeah, yeah, it was really interesting.
	I still can't explain it.
	Wow.
	Alright, well listen, thanks for taking care of us up there at KXL.
	Yeah, no problem.
	You have a good night.
	You too.
	Boy, that's strange.
	There's something about time.
	Every now and then, there's a slip.
	Every now and then, somebody, well, the kind of story you just heard, something like that happens.
	Or, like an earlier caller, Every now and then he slips into a state.
	He was much younger.
	And then back again.
	Three times in one night, right?
	Time slips.
	Burlington, something or another, on the first time caller line, you're on the air.
	Hi, Art.
	Hi.
	It's Sharon calling from Ontario.
	Welcome.
	And I have a story to tell you.
	Okay.
	Something that might Help you with your thoughts about the afterlife.
	Okay.
	When I was 12 years old, my father died, and I felt really, really sort of afraid to go and see him in his coffin.
	I wanted to remember him.
	I understand.
	And he was alive, right?
	Sure, sure.
	So my grandfather, we were at my grandparents' house, his father's house, and my grandfather asked me, When I was going to see him and I said, oh, I don't want to go and see him.
	And he said, why not?
	I said, well, I just rather remember him the way he was when he was alive.
	My grandfather assumed right away I was afraid.
	So he said, listen, the dead can't hurt you.
	When they die, they're like a dog.
	It's the end of them, and he was sort of an atheistic person.
	My grandmother was very religious Catholic, but he was atheist.
	Anyway, he was Russian as well.
	After that, I kept hearing my father's voice call me in my ear, in my left ear.
	You know when your parent calls you and you want their attention?
	Yes.
	There was a certain way they would call you.
	Yes, you would know.
	You better pay attention or else trouble comes.
	That's right.
	And my father was always very stickler about calling me in for supper and stuff.
	So it was like that call.
	And I would lay down and as I would be falling off to sleep, I would hear him call me in my left ear.
	And I was 12 at the time.
	And the following year, in September, I was going to high school.
	I'm sorry to do this to you, but the show is over.
	You can probably hear the music in the background.
	I have to go.
	I am so sorry.
	That's okay.
	I'll call you again, Art, and I'll tell you the rest of the story.
	Please do.
	You're hereby authorized to use the first time caller line again for that exact reason, because I had to cut you off.
	Well, listen, everybody.
	It has been a good one.
	I hope everybody lived through it.
	For now, I'm not going to say goodnight America, I'm going to say goodnight because obviously we have cultivated people around the world who listen to this program in droves.
	Goodnight from the high desert.
