Speaker	Time	Text
unidentified		From the High Desert and the Great American Southwest.
unidentified		How do you do?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Good evening, good morning, good afternoon, wherever you may be in the world's 25 zones covered like a nice warm blanket.
		And maybe in the desert, it's cold out there.
		This program, Midnight in the Desert, my name is Mark Bell, and I have breaking news coming up for you.
unidentified		First, the rules of the program.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's Friday night.
		It's open lines.
		So, no bad language.
		One call per show.
unidentified		Two drink minimum.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		As always, I want to thank my group.
		Telos, Joe Talbot, right here in Perump, Keith, my webmaster.
		Heather Wade, my producer.
		If you've got something you want produced, meaning a guest, send it to producer at artbell.com.
		That's producer at artbell.com.
		Then we have StreamGuys who distribute like crazy, although they haven't been arrested yet.
		LV.net, sales, Pete Eberhardt, tune-in radio, news with Amy Martin, of course, and my dear wife, Erin, and of course, Asia.
		All right.
		We do have breaking news.
		You know, I've been doing this show a long, long time.
		Decades, right?
		A show, I guess I ought to put it that way.
		And in my career, I really had always hoped for this kind of breaking news.
		This is just like the speech I gave for Tabby's Star, right?
		Which, by the way, is still every bit as much Tabby's Star as it was.
		NASA has a theory, as we mentioned a long time ago, about comets.
		But that's all it is, a theory.
		They still don't know any more than they knew before about whether they're megastructures or not.
		Something to keep in mind.
		New breaking news tonight.
		Did scientists just pick up the first intelligent radio waves from a distant alien planet?
		This comes from The Express.
		Listen very closely.
		The fast radio bursts included one double signal never heard before and have astronomers buzzing with excitement over the possibility of it being a message with alien origins.
		Only 11 of the unidentified transient radio pulses have ever been recorded before around the world.
		I've got it up on rbell.com now, and it is the curious new double blast, which was accompanied by four singles, which has baffled astronomers analyzing data now from the Parks Radio Telescope in New South Wales, Australia.
		Emily Petroff from Swissburn University in Melbourne, one of the team who discovered these signals, believes the origin could be more remarkable than anything recorded before.
		She tweeted, we have no idea what's going on, but we know it's definitely something cool.
		The Parks Observatory in Australia picked up the signals.
		The discovery is being compared in significance to the recording of the WOW signal.
		A strong narrowband radio wave found by Jerry Ellman in 1977.
		That radio burst picked up by the Big Ear Radio Telescope of Ohio State University in the U.S. bore all the expected hallmarks of a non-terrestrial origin, but has not been detected since.
		If you want to read more about this, and there's a lot more to read, you really are going to want to go to my website, arbell.com, and read this, Just Breaking.
		Again, did scientists just pick up the first intelligent radio waves from an alien planet?
		Or in ham speaks, Sirius DX, folks?
		The fast radio bursts included one double signal, never heard, of course.
		Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
		Let me see what is the news stuff here.
		Definitely something cool.
		The discovery is being compared, yes, again, to the wild signal.
		And they think that it could be extraterrestrial in origin.
		Could be a billion miles away.
		But it's a very, very strong signal, or group of signals, more accurately said.
		So once again, we have breaking news in the category that I had always hoped to be able to read to you.
		Now, that doesn't mean that this is it, but when they compare the signal at a major university, a major radio telescope in Australia to the WOW signal, only a lot bigger WOW, I would say that this qualifies as the second big story to break on my short watch here on Midnight in the Desert.
		I'm sure other radio telescopes are going to be quickly honing in and seeing what they hear.
unidentified		But this is a big one.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Scientists at major universities and major telescopes like Parks don't make these statements without cause, without thinking really, really hard about it before they say it.
		So if you want to read the story, it's just beginning, really.
		It's just breaking.
		You know, on the express right now, we'll see where the story goes, but it's a big story.
		I'm telling you.
		And we're breaking it here.
		Anyway, so there is that.
		Again, we're going to open lines.
		If you have a comment on that, If you have an early comment on it, you're certainly welcome to make it.
		There was an all-day-long, it seemed like, standoff with a gunman in Colorado Springs in a Planned Parenthood building shooting at people, hitting people.
		And so they got him.
		They got him alive this time.
		It could be a political statement.
		It could be just a crazy person.
		You never know.
		There's so much of this stuff going on now.
		You never know, right?
		The annual ritual of Black Friday, as we know it, is over now.
		The frenzied choppers are gone, but this year not as many of them went.
		How many of you put off Black Friday this year?
		Just didn't go.
		Decided, eh, I'll wait for Cyber Monday.
		That's what I think is going on.
		I really think that Cyber Monday is where most people are doing their biz now.
		And I wonder how it's going to change America, don't you?
		I mean, if you can sit at home on your computer and you can get a better deal than you get by going to a brick-and-mortar store and fighting with other people about grabbing whatever is grabbable, then that's probably what you're going to do.
		And that's what people are doing.
		And it's just going to change the landscape of America.
		I think what's going to happen to big shopping malls?
		You know what people are doing?
		I've heard, and I bet a lot of you do it too.
		You go to a shopping mall, you find what you like, because you can look at things and, you know, put hands-on, right?
		And then you go on the net and find a better price and order it there.
		Maybe with free shipping and no tax if you're lucky.
		And then there is this person on the wormhole tonight.
		Art.
		Make, who is this person?
		Adam, by the way.
		Art, make the change to Windows 10.
		Join us.
		I know you're afraid, but trust me, it's better.
		Once you've made the change, you will feel better too.
		We're waiting for you.
		We'll all be together.
unidentified		We'll all be happy.
unidentified		That's Adam.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Sounds like something out of the body snatchers to me.
		All right.
		Ladies and gentlemen, I hereby declare open lines, anything you want to talk about is fair game.
		Anything goes, literally.
		I have, earlier today, I made a suggestion on my Facebook site that people suggest what they would like to hear for open lines, special open lines.
		Just one line, right?
		And I have a lot of suggestions here.
		Actually, over 300 of them came in in a matter of hours.
		So I have picked four for our one special line.
		These four are the following.
		A weird addiction line.
		That's right.
		Lots of people have weird addictions.
		When I was in high school, I ate erasers.
		And I guess you could call that a weird addiction.
		I never had erasers on my pencil.
		Therefore, when I went to a race, I usually scratched the paper in school.
		Erasers.
		That taste, as an adult, has faded.
		So we've got the weird addiction line.
		Added to that, I have decided to take somebody's suggestion and open the I Hate Art Bell line.
		That's right.
		Somebody suggested an I hate art bell line, so fine.
		If you hate me, call the number I'm going to give out here shortly.
		Another is the soulless people line.
		If you are a person with no soul, no soul, when they were giving them out or whatever, they missed you.
		If you're one of those people, you're going to want to call the soulless line.
		And finally, and not to be ignored to be sure, the shapeshifters line.
		Now, this is only if you are a, dare I say, legitimate shapeshifter.
		That's hard to say.
		Shapeshifter, shapeshifter, shapeshifter.
		So, again, in addition to general craziness, we have the weird addiction line, the I Hate Art Bell line, the Soulless People line, and the Shapeshifters line.
		And the numbers for everything are as follows.
		I call this the talk.
		Sorry.
		Our national number is Area Code 952-225-5278.
		Easy, right?
		That's 952-CallART.
		Now, if you would like to come to us via the Cool Way and you've got a really good connection in Skype, then come on.
		It's easy.
		Put Skype on your phone, Android or Apple or whatever, actually.
		It's free to download and then, you know, add us as a contact.
		We are MITD51.
		That's in North America only, MITD51.
		Now, outside the country, outside North America, that is, it's MITD55.
		That's Midnight in the Desert, M-I-T-D.
		Case doesn't matter, 55.
		And wherever you are in the world, you can call us for free.
		Okay, let's see.
		We have a couple of more numbers to give out, and then we're underway.
		That is the first-time caller line, in case you have never called the show, never, never have called the show.
		That number is area code 775-285-5800.
		775-285-5800.
		I wonder if we're about to actually make contact.
		It sure does feel like it.
		The special line, the four special things you can do would be at AreaCode 575-208-7787.
		So, if you have a weird addiction, if you hate me, if you don't have a soul, or you're a shapeshifter, you can call AreaCode 575-208-7787.
		I think that about sums it up and sets up a pretty wild night.
		Actual radio contact out there, seriously.
		Somebody calling themselves Wildcardline is going to be on the air on Skype.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hello, Art.
unidentified		Thanks for taking my call.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you for making it, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What a night, huh?
unidentified		That is really fancy to hear about a signal being found.
unidentified		Exciting.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, Parts Telescope in Australia.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So, wow, indeed.
unidentified		The one thing that seems a little odd is they say it's several billion light years away and probably from another galaxy.
		So that has to be a pretty powerful signal.
		Very, very powerful.
		Well, I just was calling in to say that.
		It sounds like you have a lot of lines going tonight, so thanks for taking my call.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You sure you don't want to try to fit in under one of those categories?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're not a shapeshifter, are you?
unidentified		Well, my guess is you may have a few more people calling and claiming to be your mouse today, but I'm not going to make such a claim.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah, yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Any weird addictions, sir?
unidentified		No, no, not that I know of.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you hate me?
unidentified		Absolutely not.
		I've enjoyed listening to you.
		I've listened to you a little bit streaming on the internet from Los Angeles over the weekend.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, man.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Did you hear from L.A., huh?
unidentified		I live in Virginia, but I was just streaming it on the Internet.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Uh-huh, KBC.
unidentified		I did.
		It was good hearing you on a radio station.
		I usually use the Tune-In app.
		And it makes me glad to be a time traveler and not having to listen to ads most of the time.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		There you have it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Nevertheless, glad to have you along live, and thank you for the call.
unidentified		Thanks, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Right, take care.
		Sure.
		It is big news.
		I mean, think about it.
		In all the years that I did a show, wherever it was, we never once, not even once, got a signal that would qualify up in the WOW signal territory.
		And now in the span of what, a month, we have had two giant indications of alien life.
		No, possible alien life.
		Let me be clear.
		Possible alien life.
		This one from Parks Telescope is a biggie, just as Tabby Star is a biggie.
		So, you know, we're talking about serious stuff here.
		Maybe we are beginning to discover intelligent life out there.
		Let's go to my very, very special line and say, hello there.
		You're on the air.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
unidentified		My name is Joey from Daytona Beach.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Daytona Beach.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And which of my four categories would you like to address?
unidentified		I have a really weird addiction.
		Okay.
		In the past, I've had a problem with drugs and alcohol, but I gave all of that up.
		And it really kind of occurred to me that I have a very strange addiction to anything that has to do with post-apocalyptia.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, then you must be a movie fanatic because, man, they sure make a lot of movies about it, don't they?
unidentified		Yeah, they do.
		But to be honest, I'm not sure if I can give you a book that I've read.
		I've read it over 14 times.
		Have you ever heard of Piers Anthony?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
unidentified		The recognition?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, he is.
		Just picture yourself, sir.
		Where are you calling from?
unidentified		Daytona Beach, Florida.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Daytona Beach.
		Okay, so picture yourself somehow making it to a Miami that is now nothing but a nub of its former self.
		All the buildings trashed to about one quarter of their size.
		Nothing but tangled wreckage in the streets.
		A few people running around on motorcycles like Mad Max.
		Like that, huh?
unidentified		Uh-huh.
		That's post-apocalyptic, for sure.
		Yes, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So.
unidentified		I'm actually addicted to a video game right now.
		Oh.
		Radiation and mutants.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That says it all.
unidentified		Yes, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Says it all.
		So you spend a lot of time.
		Do you actually wish that the world was like that?
unidentified		Oh, yes, I do.
unidentified		Oh, God.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm going to have to take that out.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Mad Max-like stuff.
unidentified		How about that?
		Yes, sir.
		You actually want that?
		Yes, sir.
		I do.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You wouldn't miss the police in case you have an emergency or the fire department in case you have a fire?
unidentified		No, sir.
unidentified		Not at all.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So let me dig in a little further here.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I get the feeling that if the apocalypse came, that you would be one of the first out on the street causing mayhem.
unidentified		No, not causing mayhem.
unidentified		I would actually probably be a defender of people.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The center of people?
unidentified		The defender.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, the defender of people.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So you would be a defender of the apocalyptic Criminals.
unidentified		Not the criminals, but those being oppressed by the criminals.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Those being oppressed by.
		Well, okay, that's fair.
		Yeah, there wouldn't be any police, so you would essentially be a cop.
unidentified		I guess, yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So you would have to create that which you just saw destroyed to help people.
		That's pretty weird.
		Pretty weird, sir.
unidentified		Yes, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Thank you very, very much for the call, and it does indeed qualify as weird.
		He would like a post-apocalyptic world, one in which there'd be Mad Max stuff going on, right?
		And one in which he could participate by probably putting on a cloak of some sort, perhaps with a big A on the chest, and run around and save you all from what would be coming.
		First time caller line, you are on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hello.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Going once.
		Going twice.
		Washington.
		I know you're in Washington.
unidentified		Hello.
		Hello.
		How are you?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi, turn your device down and off, please.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		See, that's in the past.
unidentified		On the year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Sounds like about 30 seconds in the past.
unidentified		Can you get it turned off?
		Yeah, I can turn my phone off.
		Yeah.
		Who were you talking to a minute ago when I called you with my phone?
		Not me.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I don't know what you're talking about, but you've got your radio on or your device in the background, and that's interfering with things.
unidentified		That's you and somebody else who was talking to you.
unidentified		No, no.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		There's nobody on but you, sir.
unidentified		Turn my phone off.
		Yes.
		You're here.
		Oh.
		I'll do it with my bottom of my mouth.
		Oh, darn.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, darn.
unidentified		He figured it out.
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's still going.
unidentified		There you go.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, still going.
unidentified		How's that?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Way better.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It took the better part of a minute, though.
unidentified		Oh, yeah.
		I just got up and went and turned it off.
		Sorry, it's even, what should I talk about?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're asking me what you want to talk about?
unidentified		Well, yeah, because I was listening to someone else talking to you on the radio and on my phone.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Because there's a delay, which you ignored and drove me nuts.
unidentified		Oh, sorry.
unidentified		I didn't mean to drive you nuts.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, see, you were listening to like 30 seconds in the past.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So what you and I say right now will not appear in people's ears until perhaps as much as 30 seconds later kind of time travel.
unidentified		Isn't that awesome?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Fairly awesome.
		Anyway, you're here now.
		So surely you had something on your mind when you dialed.
unidentified		Yeah, actually, I did.
		You were talking about which different conspiracy theory, I guess, basically, if I remember correctly.
		And I was doing some postal exam work and stuff.
		So I'm new to the Shelton area.
		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you mean one of my special lines?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Is that what you mean?
unidentified		Yeah, I'm not either one of them.
		I'm just a human being, you know.
		United States citizen with a social security number.
		Prove it.
		Okay.
		How do I do it?
		Do I need to go show you my social security number?
		No, God, no, don't give it out.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		We've got four special lines.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You could comment on any of those things.
unidentified		Do you hate me?
		No, not at all.
		He seems like a really nice guy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Are you without a soul?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Are you a person without a soul?
unidentified		Oh, no, we got a soul.
		We got a soul.
		You got a soul.
		I got a soul.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, good.
		All right, good.
		Do you occasionally shape-shift into something else?
unidentified		You know, I thought about it, and then I just thought that's just insane.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Insane.
		Okay, so here's the one that's got to be for you.
		I mean, surely you are addicted to something.
unidentified		Ooh, that's scary.
		Yeah, you know what I'm addicted to?
		What?
		People.
		I enjoy being social.
		Really?
		Yeah, isn't that weird?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It is, because I consider myself basically antisocial.
unidentified		Really?
unidentified		I mean, especially with the job that you have, right?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Especially with the job that I have, actually, sir.
		Yes.
		I'm kind of antisocial.
unidentified		Oh, well, I mean, as in, like, getting out in the community, maybe, or what?
unidentified		Because, I mean, you're definitely verbalizing a lot out there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's true, and people don't understand it.
		You know, I do a radio program.
		I talk to potentially five people, right?
		And so people don't get it.
		You know, in real life, I'm pretty, I wouldn't say antisocial.
		Well, yeah, I am antisocial.
unidentified		kind of anti-social it's like What do they say?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		There's an expression, right?
		That visitors like fish after three days start to stink.
		Pretty antisocial, right?
unidentified		Are you?
unidentified		I don't know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I can't smell you over the phone without AT ⁇ T. AT ⁇ T will have smell-a-phones shortly, I'm sure.
unidentified		Are you sure?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I figured it would be actually, but now that they think about it, that would be horrible.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Or do you think Verizon will beat them to it?
unidentified		You know, due to the fact that AT ⁇ T basically owns everything that Verizon uses.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, yeah, they now own DirecTV, too.
unidentified		Oh, wow.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You didn't know that?
unidentified		TV?
		No, uh-uh.
		I didn't know that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		AT ⁇ T 8 gobbled up DirecTV.
unidentified		Oh, I bet.
		Well, think about it.
		They're the ones that put all the power lines in in order to even get it to where we're going, you know?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, they put the phone lines in.
		Power Company did the power.
		All right, sir.
		Thank you very much for the call, and great to hear from you.
		So, when we got to addiction, I heard him stumble severely.
		Now, he may not have laid it out all on us, but apparently there was something there.
		So, yes, we have four different lines: the Weird Addiction line, the I Hate R Bill line.
		Don't be afraid now.
		Make the call.
		The Soulless People line and the Shapeshifters line.
		And that number is area code 575-208-7787.
		That's 575-208-7787.
		Let's go to Sonny on Skype.
unidentified		Hello.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hello, Sonny.
		Sonny, Sonny, are you there?
		I hear you.
		Sonny apparently has left the room.
		Now, I'm trying to be patient tonight.
		I'm actually waiting for people, not giving them the usual going once, going twice, gone.
		All right.
		Up to the state of Washington we go, and you're on the air.
silverdale in washington ▲ ● ▼		Hello.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hello.
unidentified		Hello, Art.
unidentified		Hi.
silverdale in washington ▲ ● ▼		Hi.
		I was going to say last night they had a replay of your first show of Graham Hancock and Crystal Gale, and I so enjoyed it.
		It was wonderful.
		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're very welcome.
		We are glad to have put that on, and it was a good show.
		It was kind of nice to hear Crystal again, huh?
silverdale in washington ▲ ● ▼		Oh, wasn't it fun?
		That's the first time I heard it, because I didn't know you were back on the air for, oh, I guess I caught you maybe in October, early October, and I had no, or maybe September.
		I had no idea.
		I missed a couple months there.
		And this was just a delight.
		Thank you for doing that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're most welcome.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Now, would you like to comment on any of my weird lines?
unidentified		No, I can't fit into one of those tonight.
unidentified		Almost everybody has an addiction, though.
silverdale in washington ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I can't think of any of my addictions.
		I've had to give up alcohol.
		That was a good one.
		I had to give that up.
		And I don't smoke pot yet, although it's legal here now.
		So maybe that'll come into my life again.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hey, by the way, how is that working out up in Washington?
silverdale in washington ▲ ● ▼		You know, I think it's working out okay.
		I am just not, I haven't seen any situations of anybody abusing it.
		Only a couple of times I've seen people sort of fall asleep in the slow traffic, you know, at a stoplight or approaching a stoplight, and they fall asleep.
		And I don't, you know, you don't know nowadays whether to go up and sort of like, you don't want to beep at them because they get angry.
		And so you sit there and you're thinking, well, now, and they begin slowing down when they're traveling.
		And when they're doing that, I'll beep at them to get their attention.
		But I think they're probably on tottering.
unidentified		Yeah, yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Sheep a gun at them and these days they're loving to draw a gun on you.
silverdale in washington ▲ ● ▼		Well, you never know.
unidentified		So I just usually, if they're still moving, I'll go ahead and beep at them to help them wake up.
unidentified		But if they're sitting there, I generally beep at them.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, listen, I got a break.
		I've got a break.
		So thank you for the call, and I appreciate the fact that you like the show.
		In the nighttime, on yet another night with a contact story.
		This is Midnight in the Desert.
unidentified		Now I stand here helplessly Hoping you don't get into me I am so into you I can't think of nothing else I want to love
		you, feel you Wrap myself around you I want to please you, please you I just can't get enough And if you feel real slow I let it go I'm full of dirties Take a walk on the windowside.
		From the Kingdom of Knives.
		This is Midnight in the Desert with Art Bell.
		Please call the show at 1-952-225-5278.
		That's 1-952.
		Call Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Or North America.
		Gets us on Skype at MITD51.
		Internationally, MITD55.
		And we have, in addition to everything else, all the normal craziness.
		Serious breaking news tonight.
		A possible alien signal being received at the Parks Radio Telescope in Australia.
		Now, you're welcome to go read the story yourself at artbell.com.
		It doesn't say it is an alien signal.
		It says it could be.
		They actually use the word extraterrestrial.
		So we may be in a time, you know, when I'm telling you what I have been waiting for and waiting for and waiting for virtually all my life may be in the process of coming true.
		And then let us not forget, along with everything else, if you have a weird addiction you'd like to talk to, if you hate my guts, if you are a soulless person, be interested in talking to a person that doesn't think they have a soul, and or a shape-shifter, then you can call our special line designed for any of those weirdnesses.
		It is area code 575-208-7787.
		Now, I blew right through the break in the first half hour, so I'll take care of it this half hour.
		But boy, there is a lot of news cooking out there of just the kind that I love.
		I mean, I really, really love it.
		And I'm getting so many Skype calls that I cannot see who I'm about to be answering.
		They're actually covered up.
		I'm moving Skype calls as I speak.
		All right, Phantom, I believe it is.
		You're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hello, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How are you?
		I'm just fine.
		What an exciting time.
unidentified		It is.
unidentified		Hey, I'm hoping you had a good Thanksgiving with your family.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Everything's fine, fortunately.
		Thank you.
		We're safe.
unidentified		That's good to hear.
		Well, you've got the four lines that you're doing tonight, but my story kind of falls outside of that.
		I don't know if you'd be up for a call about possession.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, absolutely.
		Are you, oops, sir?
		Are you possessed?
unidentified		No, but in the past, I have a friend that truly believes that I was possessed.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, then maybe you were.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What did your friend, What did your I mean, why did your friend come to believe this?
unidentified		Well, her and I were hanging out at my house one day.
		We were, I think we were about 14.
		And I don't really remember what happened, but she says I started slamming into the walls at the house and saying weird things, sounded like gibberish, and just off the walls.
		Kept going up and down the stairs.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, you know, I know that when I was 14, I was a little possessed, no question about it.
		But I'm not sure it was a demon.
		In your case, it sounds like it could have been.
unidentified		Well, she you might not like this part, but she refers to the whatever possessed me as red because my eyes turned red.
wolfman in dm talkers ▲ ● ▼		You're right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I don't like that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		She really said your eyes turned red?
unidentified		She did.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know, okay, so if I was with a girl and her eyes turned red, I wouldn't be with her anymore.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Now, are you still with this young lady?
unidentified		Her and I are still friends.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Friends.
		Distant friends.
		Like a call every now and then, maybe a Christmas card.
unidentified		Yeah, exactly.
		And a few years later, we were doing something, and just randomly I had a little cut on my hand.
		We don't know where it came from.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
unidentified		And it just started bleeding, just a little hole in the back of my hand.
unidentified		It has since healed, but it left us a very slight scar.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And this just happened.
unidentified		It was about two years after this.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I'm saying spontaneously, a hole developed.
unidentified		And, you know, that's pretty weird.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Maybe you are possessed.
unidentified		No, I apologize for all the noise in the background.
unidentified		I have a 24-year-old cat that wants to get on your show.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Aww.
unidentified		He's been with me all my life.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I fully understand.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Take good care of him.
unidentified		Is it okay if I plug the community I'm listening with?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, it's fine.
unidentified		I am chatting with the people on Source Freenet IRC chat in the Art Bell channel.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Way to go, sir.
		I thank you for the plug.
		And yeah, all of you.
		If you want to plug the group, there are many groups out there that monitor, discuss, trash this show, whatever it is they do.
		You are more than welcome to plug them when you get on the air.
		But I'm expecting some serious weirdness tonight.
		So if you have a weird addiction, if you hate me, especially if you hate me, if you are a person without a soul, I know there's some of you out there, right?
		And or if you from time to time shape shift, then I want to hear from you.
		And we have a special number for that.
		That number is area code 575-208-7787.
		575-208-7787.
		And now I'm going to take the break that I did not take in the first half hour.
		I mean, when you have alien signals being received in Australia and so much more going on, you just don't have time for commercials on the high desert and the great American Southwest.
		Listening to Midnight in the Desert.
		On a Friday night, two drink max.
		I'm Art Bell.
unidentified		It's 2 a.m.
		It's us for a while.
		I'm Art Bell.
		Wanna take a ride exclusively on the Dark Matter Digital Network?
		This is Midnight in the Desert with your host, Art Bell.
		TukoArt.
		Please dial 1-952-225-5278.
		That's 1-952-CallArt.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I think Aaron has it right.
unidentified		He sends through the wormhole strange addiction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm addicted to searching for answers to paranormal questions.
		This is what brings me to your show night after night.
		And I believe it's your addiction as well.
		Yes, Aaron, it is.
		That is an absolute addiction of mine.
		I cop to it.
		And that's why I'm here.
		And boy, am I being fulfilled lately.
		First, we have Tabby's star, and now, from Australia, we've got the possibility of, not the possibility of, it is what they're calling a WOW signal or equivalent to the WOW signal from the Parks Radio Telescope in Australia.
		So if you're just catching up on things, you're going to want to definitely catch up on that.
		Let's go to Monroe, Louisiana, I believe.
		Hello on my strange line.
		Hello.
unidentified		You talking about Monroe, Georgia?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Georgia, yep.
unidentified		Yep, Georgia.
		Hey, Art.
		This is probably a little closer to your form of things, but I have a weird addiction that started about five years ago.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Did it start slowly or did it come on all at once?
unidentified		Slowly, because pretty much me and my wife split up, and instead of me going to some of my older addictions, I discovered ham radio.
		That's a good beginning.
		When I say addiction, I mean it does get in the way of my personal finances.
		I am now addicted to building 10-meter amplifiers.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		10, is that 10 or 11-meter?
unidentified		Let's just say 10.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, let's say it, but I think you mean 11.
unidentified		Well, you know, if it works for 10, it works for 11.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, there is that.
		I mean, generally.
		Not always.
		Some manufacturers put something in.
		By the way, I'm hearing myself in the background.
		Some manufacturers put in something special so that those 11-meter guys can't use 10-meter amps.
		You know that, right?
unidentified		Right, so it won't work on AM.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Can you say treetop tall?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I know you can.
unidentified		Well, you know, I can't help it.
		I mean, it's so bad that my own mother has seen me while I was asleep, literally building and soldering with my hands up in the air like I'm actually building an amplifier.
		The only reason I hadn't got into the ones with, you know, multiple output filtering, because I just hadn't got that good yet.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So tell me, sir, the world of CB these days, has it become more polite or has it descended into post-apocalyptic chaos?
unidentified		If you want to get to the polite, you go over to up above channel 40.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		You know, I can't honestly talk to you in all good faith.
		My brothers out there are listening.
unidentified		I know.
		But I have a love for both areas of the spectrum.
		We'll just put it that way.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Well, get a license.
		That's what I would say.
		Become a real ham.
		Join us.
		It'll be all right.
		Kind of like the guy told me about Windows 10.
		You will become happy.
		Let's go to Matt.
		Hello, Matt.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
		Hi.
		First things first.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
unidentified		I have weird headphones.
		My audio plays back.
		Can you hear me fine?
		Like, can you hear yourself through it?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I hear you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Just great.
unidentified		All right, awesome.
unidentified		I have a strange addiction I'd like to tell you about.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Fire away.
unidentified		I am addicted to something known as role-playing.
unidentified		Are you familiar with Dungeons and Dragons and that sort of thing?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Of course, yes, yes.
unidentified		Oh, absolutely.
		Let me tell you, this got started way back in high school.
		I work 9 to 5.
		I have all this normal life.
		But when I get home, I get on the forums.
		I type up all this crazy stuff.
		I go in the woods with PVC swords and my buddies.
		It's crazy.
		It feels like I'm 10, but it's amazing.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I get it.
		No, I do get it.
		It can really take over your life.
		You know that, of course, right?
unidentified		Oh, absolutely.
unidentified		I don't even want to get started.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, you've already started, but I mean, it really can take over your life to the point where every spare minute, and perhaps you're even trying to figure out a way to play at work.
unidentified		When I'm at work, I just think about getting home and playing my half-elf Ranger with a plus-one bow.
unidentified		It consumes my life.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You have a plus-one bow?
unidentified		I have a plus-one bow in Dungeon with the Dragons.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Very impressive.
unidentified		I know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And so you spend virtually every free minute down in the dungeon with the dragons.
unidentified		Absolutely.
		I don't think I'd change my life.
		It's fantastic.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you think you'll ever get married?
unidentified		That's a good question.
unidentified		I don't know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, it is.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I mean, you know, if it was like the wife or Dungeons and Dragons, then what?
unidentified		I think I'd have to, when the time comes, I'd choose the wife.
unidentified		But if she's not into the whole thing like I am, it's not going to work.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So maybe what you'll walk out and you'll meet this gorgeous gal online playing Dungeons and Dragons.
unidentified		Oh, man, that'd be amazing.
unidentified		But that sort of thing only happens in, you know, the games and the movies and that sort of thing.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Dungeons and Dragons dating site.
unidentified		That sounds almost as bad as an idea of a paranormal dating site, you know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You said it, I didn't.
		Thank you for the call, sir, and good luck with your I was going to say life, and wife is what almost came out.
		I would say stay single, and when the real time comes and the real gal comes, you'll know it.
		Okay, you're now on the air on Skype.
		Hello there.
unidentified		Hi there.
		Hi.
		So I have a strange addiction.
		Good.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What is your strange addiction?
unidentified		So I collect pictures of this Japanese idol girl.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I think I'm looking at her right now.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Is she the gal on your Skype?
unidentified		Yes.
unidentified		Uh-huh.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Very pretty.
unidentified		She is.
		I have over, like, two gigabytes of pictures of her on my hard drive.
		Really?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yep.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you have any plans to travel to Japan and try and see her in person?
unidentified		Yes, I do.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That is a little odd, sir.
		What do you expect your reception will be?
		Or no, wait.
		What do you hope for?
unidentified		I hope to meet her in person.
unidentified		At least see her.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you think she'll look one time into your eyes and say Ohio Gazaimos?
unidentified		It would be nice.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, she's a pretty girl anyway, so there you go.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That is kind of an it's a it's I don't want to say it's at the level of stalker, but I mean if the police came in your house, would her picture be like plastered everywhere?
unidentified		Not quite.
		I do have a little tiny framed picture of her.
		It's just on my desk.
		Uh-huh.
		It's very subtle, but you know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I bet a lot of girls have that, you know, I don't want to say problem, but maybe it's really a compliment.
		All right, sir.
		Well, listen, thank you very much, and she's gorgeous.
unidentified		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So good luck.
		Take care.
		I'm Art Bell.
unidentified		Nothing but a heart is everything.
		It's not a heart and it didn't stop all the way.
		It's not a beauty of a man's eye.
		But you're saying, yeah, please write me all right.
		When I get here.
		I can see for miles and miles.
		I can see for miles and miles.
		I can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles.
		Thank you.
		The night 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 Parks.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In every way you can imagine, this is a cool night.
		We've got breaking news.
		The Parks Telescope in Australia thinks they may have received a signal from an intelligent species.
		And I'll leave it at that.
		They do make that statement.
		Honestly, they do.
		If you want to read the story, go to artbell.com and read it.
		So this is the second gigantic story I've broken in, what, a month in this category.
		And I went for decades without breaking something like this on earlier programs.
		So I think it's exciting.
		I think it is very, very exciting, actually.
		Then we have general open lines.
		Anything goes to Drink Max open lines.
		We have one special line, which I invite you to call.
		The Weird Addiction line.
		There's been quite a bit of response to that one so far.
		The I Hate Art Bell line.
		What other talk show host opens a line for people who hate him?
		The Soulless People line.
		Of course, they would fit in with the I Hate Art Bell line, but nevertheless.
		And then, of course, the Shape Shifters line.
		All of those can be responded to by calling.
		Area code 575.
		This is in Roswell, New Mexico, you know.
		Area code 575-208-7787.
		So your call is being routed through Roswell.
		575-208-7787, Skype at MITD51 in the U.S. and Canada, MITD55 elsewhere.
		On my, well, my multiple line, you're on the air.
unidentified		Is this me?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It is you, yes.
unidentified		It is me.
		I hate Art Bell because he has a two-drink maximum.
		Did you catch yourself at the beginning of the show when you gave the rules, you said two-drink minimum?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, Yes, I know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		There are some people who depend on my mistake every week for that and prove it later in the show.
unidentified		And I am without a soul.
		You're without a soul.
		Every one of your listeners is without a soul.
		You do not have a soul.
		You are a soul.
		We don't do dot, dash, dot, or dot, dot, dot, dash, dot, dash, dot, dot, dot.
		Is that S-O-S?
		Dot, dot, dot, dot, dash, dash, dash, dash, dot, dot, dot.
		Yes.
		Right.
		Because we're saying save our spirituality, we're saying save our bodies.
		Save us.
		Well, no, no, they're saying save our souls.
		We are souls.
		Well, there were helpfulness.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Isn't this a difference?
		Wait a minute, wait a minute.
		Isn't this kind of like a difference without a distinction, sir?
		I mean, you're saying...
unidentified		And the reason that it's a matter of semantics is because it's an abused semantics.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Did I say this was a line for semantics?
unidentified		You said it's a line for somebody without a soul.
unidentified		That's a soul.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Fine, fine, fine.
		I appreciate your sneakiness.
		Do you fit any of the other categories?
		I mean, you must have some.
		I'm going to cut that out.
		That's just, you know, the visual for that one is just.
		You're not really serious.
unidentified		It's more healthy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're not serious.
unidentified		It's more healthy to squat.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You are serious.
unidentified		Speaking about buying.
		Yes.
		Yes.
		There's a device now for sale.
		You can get it on the internet.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The squatty potty.
unidentified		I can't remember the name.
unidentified		The squatty potty.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		We've actually advertised it on this program.
unidentified		Yes.
		Yes.
		And I will be ordering that.
		It'll make it a lot more convenient because from hemorrhoids, and I found out it's because of the toilet.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, well.
unidentified		And squatting was recommended to me.
unidentified		And you can call it a weird addiction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's not that weird.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I mean, you know, your alternative certainly is, but I had to bleep that out.
unidentified		Okay.
unidentified		No, I'm fine with that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, thanks.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I mean, you know, the visual is just too much.
unidentified		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you very much for the call.
		Somebody once said to me, gentlemen don't do that in the shower.
		And so that could give you some clue as to why I bleeped it.
		Hello there.
		Brandon, you're on the air.
unidentified		Wow.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I know.
		Wow, right?
		Yeah, you have no idea.
		Cool.
unidentified		Well, thanks for taking my call art.
		I'm actually an Ewer fan of you.
		I'm a time traveler as well.
		And yeah, I have a suggestion for a show first and something, like an experience to tell you about.
		First, my suggestion for a show, I think it'd be really cool if you did something on cults.
		They're really fascinating.
		I studied them a little bit in college.
		And, you know, just about how people can manipulate.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Now you're breaking up a little bit.
		Let me ask you a question.
		Have you ever thought of starting a cult?
unidentified		No.
		No.
		That would be inhumane.
		That's not right.
		That's not cool.
		But yeah, I actually heard you talk about Jim Jones the other day on the show.
		And personal belief is that Jim Jones and the whole Jonestown thing was a conspiracy.
		But I won't get into that.
		But just a suggestion for a show.
		There's lots of info about it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, wait, wait.
		Can't look at it like that.
		What kind of conspiracy?
unidentified		Well, don't you find it odd that a thousand people would just kill themselves?
unidentified		Like, that to start.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, if you study cults, you're going to find out why.
unidentified		Well, yeah, I mean, I don't know.
		I just think, okay, well, first off, the whole Jonestown experience was, so basically in Guatemala, a thousand people drank cyanide poison and killed themselves.
		And, you know, it just, I don't know, the experience, sorry, the whole situation just, it's very fishy.
		Like Senator Ryan, or there's a senator who went down to investigate a Congressman.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I think, yes.
unidentified		Yeah, yeah, Congressman.
		Yeah, he went down to investigate it, and then he ended up getting killed while he was down there because people were feeding him notes that they wanted to leave.
		That's right.
		Yeah, that's just one example of a cult.
		But they're really fascinating, you know, like just overall cults.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, okay.
		You know, I'll go along with you.
		It is fascinating that people will submit their will to somebody with a lot of charisma like that.
		It is odd.
		And it's kind of like people are giving up everything else in their life, their own essence, soul, and willpower and everything else, and giving it to the leader of the cult.
		It's true.
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's weird.
unidentified		It's crazy stuff.
		Anyways, that's not why I called.
		Oh, I did want to tell you as a suggestion for a show.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Sure.
unidentified		But yeah, no, you talk a lot about your experiences, and you talk a lot about life after death and consciousness.
		And definitely my favorite shows.
		You did a show a couple weeks ago with a gentleman about past life progression.
		And I honestly, I've listened to a lot of your shows.
		I listened to them all the time.
		And that, to me, was the most fascinating show.
		And it really opened my eyes a lot.
		But I had a strange experience with the whole out-of-body experience.
		I've listened to some of your shows where the people kind of explain how to do it.
		You get in that meditative state, and you kind of find yourself in a sort of trance where you feel this very, very strange vibration where your consciousness kind of leaves your body.
		And it really freaked me out.
		But when it happened to me, it clicked in.
		This is an experience I had when I was a very, very little boy.
		And I went and I talked to my wife about it, who's, you know, she's a little skeptical.
		I talk about your show all the time with her.
		And I'm trying to convert her, but it's work in progress.
		Anyways, I told her about this, and she clicked in, and she's like, I had that same experience when I was a kid, but I couldn't really describe it.
		Really?
		Very fascinating.
		So I'm like, I'm interested.
		Like, do other people have this experience?
		Like, it's a very strange feeling that you can't really explain where it's vibrational is really the best way to describe it, where your consciousness and your body are like separate.
		And it's really strange, but I think your viewers and your listeners, if they've had that experience when they were a kid, they know what I'm talking about.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I had Dr. Dr. Thank you.
		I had Dr. Kaku on the show the other night.
		And he admitted when I told him, I said, Dr. Scientists have just verified that lucid dreaming is real.
		And Dr. Kaku immediately, obviously up on latest in science, said, that's right, Art, they have.
		You know, and just a few years ago, the concept of lucid dreaming was something scientists laughed at, right?
		Oh, lucid dreaming.
		Controlling your own dreams.
		Show me proof.
unidentified		Well, now there's proof.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Lucid dreaming is real.
		Dr. Kaku said so, and I of course knew about it before the program.
		It's fairly recent science.
		But, you know, when it does finally become proven, then a good scientist is willing to admit, well, yes, it's true.
		Let's go outside the country and to Michelle.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hello, Art.
		Hi.
		Hopefully it's not too loud.
		I am sitting outside on the patio at McDonald's, getting a late lunch on my way to go take a Christmas present from my mom to the post office.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		McDonald's in Tokyo, right?
unidentified		Well, outside Tokyo, but yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Outside Tokyo.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you know that McDonald's in the Philippines delivers, when you order McDonald's?
unidentified		Do they really?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It goes in a keep-it-warm sack on the back of a motorcycle, and you got it in about 10 minutes.
unidentified		Yeah, a lot of places here do that, but not McDonald's.
		I mean, some of the local cafes and stuff do, and that kind of thing.
		You can get ramen.
		They've got a ramen truck that's got this special metal case that goes on the back, and they can stack it up on the back of a motorcycle.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		There you go.
unidentified		It's crazy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So how's everything in Japan today?
unidentified		It's going all right.
		I'm about to send my mom an iPad for Christmas.
		She's never had an iOS device before.
		She's not listening, so.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's going to be a welcome surprise.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I think she's probably going to love it.
unidentified		I hope so.
		She's always complaining about how she has to use her Mac to talk to me and all this kind of stuff.
		And I just thought, I'm going to make this easy for her.
		I'm sure she will say, but honey, there's so many buttons.
		What I have done is I have made a video showing her how to use it and put it on a DVD with the package.
		That's the way to do it.
		That was my thought.
		So I knew as soon as she opened it, she's like, I don't know how to use this.
		That's right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, the video is a very, very, very good idea.
unidentified		And, of course, I recorded it with my iPhone.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What a world.
unidentified		I know, right?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		Everything is.
		Are you addicted to something?
unidentified		Well, yeah, actually, I am.
		I've got two things I wanted to talk to you about.
		One of them is the addiction.
		I'm addicted to collecting video games, mostly video games from the 80s and 90s.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Good for you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I like those.
unidentified		I love them.
		And here in Japan, they've got tons of them, and they're real cheap because they don't really hold on to old stuff the way they do in America.
		In America, it kind of goes way up in value, and here it goes down in value.
		Really?
		Okay.
		Yeah, so I've got about 350 or so old video games in my living room in my apartment, neatly arranged on the shelves, not everywhere.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I would love to have copies of some of those.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		My goodness.
unidentified		Yeah, and I've been recently getting into some old computer systems here in Japan as well, which they're all in Japanese, but that's part of the fun.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're a hacker.
unidentified		Oh, no, no, no.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, so what do you mean by getting into?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I see.
unidentified		Getting into is in the, they're very old, like computers from the, you know, 1987.
		That's what I'm talking about, yes.
		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And you have another category, Michelle?
unidentified		Not another category.
		I actually wanted to mention to you about the sort of on the lines of the signal.
		I've been doing a research project with my English conversation class here in my school about students believe, whether students believe in UFOs or aliens.
		We did a sort of a survey on it, and the results were very, very surprising.
		And even more surprising were the number of people who said they'd seen one.
		And so we're putting that together.
		And maybe this is a question for Heather, but at some point, our class runs at the same time as your show.
		And we'd like to see about calling and just asking you a few questions.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I would have no problem with that at all.
unidentified		Okay.
		Well, like I said, our class is on Tuesdays.
		And it's on around the last hour of your show, I guess.
		Okay.
		And so we'll try and get that together.
		And right now I'm still getting permission on my side, but it looks like it's going to go through, no problem.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Tomorrow.
unidentified		Hey.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, anyway, I would look forward to that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Try and pick your best English students.
unidentified		That's what this class is.
		It's some of my best English students.
		This is a small, maybe six-student class of our third-year students who really enjoy English.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Would you say, Michelle, that English is harder to learn if you're Japanese or Japanese is harder to learn if you're an American?
unidentified		I would say they're both equal.
unidentified		And the reason is because they're both so backwards to each other in terms of grammar and the way they function.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		They are indeed.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You have to actually learn to think in a different way.
unidentified		People do.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		People don't read.
unidentified		They really do learn how to just think and talk in a completely different way.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The Japanese actually read from the rear of a magazine or a book to the front, right?
unidentified		Right.
		Unless, well, when it's printed, you know, old-fashioned vertically way.
		If it's printed in sort of the Western way, it won't be.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, you mean if it's in kanji?
unidentified		Well, sometimes they'll print books, like most books are printed, you know, vertically, from right to left.
		But if they print books horizontally, like if it's an instruction manual for something or something like that, then it'll be from left to right.
		So it makes it like doubly backwards because there's two different writing systems.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It does one.
		That's exactly right.
		All right, Michelle, thank you so much, and I'll look forward to hearing from one of your students, I guess, on Tuesday.
		That should be, actually, that's kind of interesting.
		That should be kind of fun.
		And it is such a very different culture, the Japanese culture, that, yes, as you begin to integrate with it, you have to actually begin to think of everything in a very sort of different reverse way.
		Even socially, it's kind of an opposite.
		And listen, I want to remind people, I've seen several on the international line, and for that matter, the national Skypeline.
		If I don't answer right away, just re-dial.
		Just continue to re-dial.
		If you begin to hear my audio, if you hear the show, that means, guess what?
		You got through.
		So hang in there, and I will get to you.
		It's a free call, so you can afford to wait a little bit.
unidentified		Let's go to Roswell.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Roswell, really?
		You're on the air.
		No, you're in Montana.
unidentified		Hello?
		Hello?
		Yes.
		Hello, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm going to quit trying to identify where people are because I only get part of it, and I keep guessing.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Where are you, actually?
unidentified		I am in Montana.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Montana.
unidentified		Okay, very good.
unidentified		KG7?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, don't give your old call.
		Don't do that.
		That identifies your address, so don't do that.
unidentified		Oh, copy that.
		Well, I called in to tell you about my addiction, and it's always been radio.
		Well, boy, I just want so totally.
		You know, it started out with transistor radios years ago, and late night, I'd always try to see how far I could receive something.
		And just recently, I got my ham radio license.
		And it's opened up a whole new thing to me.
		And yeah, I'm really excited about it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		A whole new addiction.
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Trust me, Lily.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Ham radio can turn into a serious addiction.
unidentified		I understand that.
		And when I look at these catalogs and I see the price of rigs and antennas and what my friends want to get me into that I've just started to get into, yeah, I'm kind of worried about it, but I'm very excited about it.
		And I, you know, I've listened to you for years and years, and I know you're an amateur ham radio operator, and I'm really excited about the whole thing.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, then I may catch you on the bands one of these days.
		I am indeed on the air.
		So there you go.
unidentified		Wonderful.
		Okay.
		It's a pleasure to talk to you.
		First time caller, and it's an honor to talk with you, my friend.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you so very much, and take care.
		Yes, ham radio is, even in this modern day and age, of iPhones.
		I've got one, wouldn't be without it, but it's not the same as ham radio.
		I mean, you can sit down after you get your license.
		Yes, you have to study a little bit, but you can sit down at a table with a radio and with an antenna outside, and you can talk to people all around the world who have an interest now similar to yours.
		It is a very, very exciting hobby.
		So I can't stress strongly enough, look into it, really, look into it.
		Let's go to our guest Virginia.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
		This is Blast Bond.
		I'd like to give a shout out to Debbie, the Weisel, and the rest of the gang at Midnight Fans group.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Way to go.
unidentified		And I'm listening on WTWW, shortwave, 50-85 kilohertz.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Nice segue.
unidentified		And, you know, I am really having to rethink how much this program, since it started on July 20th, has got me spatially challenged and trying to assess all the incoming communication.
		And I think the only way to do it now is to have a lucid dream and go into an out-of-interplanetary body experience and perfect that so that I have the vision coming from all directions 360 degrees spherical.
		So I can keep one eye on Tabby's star.
		Well, the one eye on all the stars, actually.
		I'm the one eye on the source coming from another galaxy that the Parks Observatory is picking up.
		And my home star, of course, in the Pleiades Star Cluster.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Can you put your home star in Pleiades, really?
unidentified		Right, I'm a Libertallian from the Pleiades Star Cluster.
unidentified		So the point I'm trying to make here is it is quite not just a coincidence, but an astonishing how much interstellar traffic we're getting these days.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, consider, sir.
		Consider, in the last month, we've had two really hot hits in this area that we haven't had in decades and decades.
		I mean, it is really exciting.
unidentified		It is.
		And if we're going to have any more of these, we're going to have to start assessing the way we deal with communication traffic among planets and stars.
		And don't forget, I'm still keeping a very close watch on this Martian crab thing, which has a bellows-like lung to compress the CO2 on Mars, which is only 1% of the pressure of Earth.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Have you by any chance, sir, seen the dome on Mars that we've got on our website?
unidentified		I haven't looked at that, but I shall now that you've mentioned it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Please, by all means, I mean, this thing has got to be artificial.
unidentified		It's got to be.
		I'm seeing so much, so many car parts and assemble objects that you just got to wonder, was there a civilization there before it was impacted, whatever, you know, tore up one half of Mars?
		Was there a whole civilization there?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Certainly possible.
unidentified		It seems that way.
		But the fact of the matter of looking at this Martian crab, this thing that's got a pelas for lungs and then injects the CO2 into an algae reactor where it then makes oxygen, and instead of breathing out the CO2 like we would do, it just puts it back and recycles it through the palace lung.
		This is something that really teaches us how to be a Martian.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, it doesn't sound like right now, anyway, life as a Martian, as it were, would be easy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It wouldn't be an easy life.
unidentified		It'd be dreadfully cold and, you know, very low pressure.
		If you ever lost pressure, it'd be just the same as being out of space.
		Your blood would just boil.
		It's only 1% pressure.
		But maybe terraforming over time is a possibility.
		We could certainly learn if there was a real, if that crab is a real creature and it's a living thing.
		Observing that could teach us a lot about Martian biology and how to maybe to adapt the human species.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, yes, what was lost, thank you, can be found again or created again.
		I do think that eventually a Martian atmosphere can be restored.
		I think it can be done.
		And I hope it becomes within our ability to do.
		I really do.
		Because we may need a place to go.
		The way we're treating Earth, we may need a place to go.
		Outside the country, you're on the air.
		Hello.
wolfman in dm talkers ▲ ● ▼		Hello, Ark.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, hello.
unidentified		Yeah, hi, it's Mark in Switzerland.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hey, Mark.
unidentified		I have an addiction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And that would be...
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It sounds like you're in a Swiss laboratory at the moment.
unidentified		Yeah, I'm in the basement, actually.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Are you?
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm sorry, I missed your addiction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What was it?
unidentified		Riding Swiss trains.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I totally get that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It must be awesome, especially up in the mountains, huh?
unidentified		Yeah, it's fantastic.
unidentified		And you can buy a yearly pass, and then you can ride indefinitely without limit.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That does sound like fun.
		One of the best things I did in my entire life, Mark, was to ride from Vancouver to Niagara Falls, almost.
		Well, you know, on the Canada side.
unidentified		Ah, cool.
unidentified		So the train actually moved?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, my goodness, yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It went right over the Canadian Rockies, and that really was an experience.
unidentified		That's fantastic.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But the Alps has got to be pretty hard.
unidentified		I have to talk about the signal.
unidentified		This is very exciting.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, please go ahead.
unidentified		I think this could be a very exciting day to prove to us that we're not alone.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It could.
		We've got two big hits in the last month, Mark.
		Tabby star that remains as much a mystery as the day they announced, and now possibly a signal that they describe as big as the WOW signal from Australia.
unidentified		And is there going to be some follow-up news on this?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Damn well better be.
unidentified		Good.
		And I hope to hear it.
		I expect to hear it on your show.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, okay.
		You can depend on hearing it here, Mark.
		No question about it.
		But, you know, it's the Parks Telescope in Australia.
		So this is more than, you know, some minor matter.
		It's not yet in the bigger media, but I'm thinking it will be.
unidentified		Cool.
unidentified		Well, stay tuned, Art, and I wish you a good weekend.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You have a great weekend, Mark, all the way from Switzerland.
		So if you're outside the country and you want to talk to us, no problem.
		Skype is free.
		Absolutely free.
		Just download Skype, put in M-I-T-D55, and no matter where you are in the world, one click, and here we are.
		It's that simple.
		Let's go.
		Let's go to our special line.
		Hello there.
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		Hello there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		Oh, wonderful.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're obviously calling for one of four reasons.
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		What are my reasons?
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		Well, I might have had an ulterior motive here.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		Yes, I did.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You mean like sneaking in on a line that you weren't supposed to call?
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		No, I couldn't remember what numbers I was supposed to call, so I pushed the redial from last night before last.
		It rang, so I said, hot diggity.
		I hope I got the right line.
unidentified		This is bad.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Because this is...
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You may qualify under one of these possibilities.
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, so we have the weird addiction line.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you have a weird addiction?
unidentified		Oh, yeah.
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I've got that for sure.
unidentified		And it's about you.
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		I'm addicted to your soothing voice every night and also hearing the temperature of the rest of the country out there as they call in to talk to you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hold tight.
		I'll come back to you because you sound like a good guy.
		I'm Art Bell.
unidentified		I'm Art Bell.
		The clock strikes 12, and Midnight in the Desert is pounding Packets Your Way on the Dark Matter Digital Network.
		To call the show, please direct your finger digits to dial 1-952-225-5278.
		That's 1-952-Call Parks.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Listen, for all of these things, I just read stories that I get.
		I have no way Of verifying that Parks has indeed received this.
		Now, could this be a false flag story?
		We've been waiting for the right time to use the phrase false flag.
		Yeah, could be, you know.
		We live in an information age, and a lot of it's really twisted.
		However, it does look like a valid story to me, so we'll see.
		Hi, on the phone, you're on the air.
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		Oh, good.
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		It's wonderful.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Back on the air, actually.
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		That's wonderful.
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		I wanted to take you back about four Lundstroms, back in the day where we did a lot of faxing back and forth to you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I remember that.
unidentified		Oh, Lord.
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		We had you bouncing around the radio shack one night, a handful of us out here in Radio Land.
		And it was when we were first talking about remote viewing and stuff like that.
		And you were adamant to the fact that you just were not too sure about it.
		It just, you know, and then one caller called in and said that he had remote viewed you there in your little radio.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I remember this, and I found something that I had lost.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And I'll be honest.
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		No, no.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that was one.
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		It may have been.
		But the one that I was involved with is I sent you a fax real quick because I could never get on on my telephone line.
		I could never call you.
		And so I sent a fax as, okay, you pick an object, set it on the desk or on the shelf in front of you, and let us fax in pictures.
		We'll draw them up by hand of what that is.
		And you looked around and then you found what was a picture of you inside a special, I forget the frilly type frame, like a metal frame that saw it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		You remember that one?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I do.
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		And so I drew it up real quick, and I sent it to you.
		And the only thing I messed up is I was sure Ramona was in front of you at a lower level.
		And I included her.
		And then four other people sent in the same thing.
unidentified		I said they did.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And I remember.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I remember.
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		You were bouncing all over the room.
		It was so good.
		I was just thrilled.
		The wife was just, she was bouncing in the bedroom with me.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And there was one just as big as that, sir.
		Somebody, I had lost something.
		I can't remember what it was, but it wasn't a tool, you know.
		And somebody said, open your closet, look in your toolbox, and I'll be damned if it wasn't there.
		I forget what the item was now, but it may have been my keys or something that I had lost, and it was there.
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		So putting it away.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That still doesn't mean that, you know, I'm gulping the Kool-Aid, but it does look like there's something to it.
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		Well, you know, I've done this since I was a kid.
		And one of my favorite things is you take a few bounces down the road, and all of a sudden you're elevated and you're flying.
		And that is just wonderful dreaming.
		Fly anywhere you want to go.
		And so when I started listening to you, I would just be so into listening to what's going on, I would find myself standing outside the window of that radio shack looking at your house.
		And then one time I got in over in the corner, I think you got a monitor mounted up there now or something looking down at you.
		And it was just so cool.
		And so one time I went over to a two-day thing in Las Vegas where Ed Dames was teaching this stuff.
		I thought, I'm going to get really good at this.
		I didn't like the way he taught it, so I left after the first day.
		But I thought, you know what?
		I'm going to take and come home because I live over by Sacramento.
		I'll come back through Death Valley and I'll detour through Perump and see if I can't drive straight to where you live.
		By golly, I did.
		And I got to see your big antennas and all that stuff.
		And oh, oh, oh, those antennas.
		You said you had about 440 or something like that volts on them?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Almost 400 volts, yes.
fax in radio land ▲ ● ▼		Is there any appreciable amperage there?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Not a lot, but there's enough.
		It could be, I've got to go, sir, regarding my antenna.
		It could be used.
		Let's put it that way.
		At the moment, I ground it, and I do that to protect my radios because that kind of voltage destroys radios.
		That's kind of how I found it.
		It destroyed a couple of my radios.
		So there is enough current that, you know, it could be used to charge things.
		It could conceivably be stored and used.
		It's something that should be looked into.
		And for years, I have invited people, somebody of substance science, to come and do some measurements on the voltage on this antenna.
		It is really substantial, and I want to know more about it, other than going out there and getting myself shocked all the time.
		So I would like to know more.
		I can tell you this, and this is intriguing for anybody who knows a little bit about electricity and electronics.
		I have a big sort of Frankenstein switch so that I can turn, you know, actually disconnect the antenna and put it on ground during any storms.
		And I can sit there going, click, click, click, click that fast, and I will get a giant blue spark every single time.
		So it's not like it has to build up.
		Whatever it is, is always there.
		There's no recharge time for it, or at least none that I can see.
		And look at this.
		This message says, the dudes at Belgab want to know how you like your coffee yard.
		What is it about Belgab?
		Those vaguely lovable people have a disturbing interest in what I eat and what I drink.
		Disturbing.
		They bugged me one day until I finally told them what I had for dinner.
		And it strangely, unnervingly seemed to satisfy them.
		My coffee black, always black.
		And why do you want to know these things?
		All right, to Skype we go.
unidentified		Hello.
unidentified		Hello?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hello.
unidentified		Can you hear me?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I hear you.
unidentified		Okay.
unidentified		But you got to promise you'll believe me when I tell you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I don't know if I can promise that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Now, you're calling on a laptop, right?
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Try and get closer to the little hole in the top of the laptop where the mic is.
unidentified		Can you hear me now better?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I hear you, yes.
unidentified		Okay.
		Because this isn't actually my computer, but I swear I'm a shapeshifter.
		Oh, good.
		Or something like that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		So no, let's take it one step at a time.
		This is radio.
		We've got a lot of time.
		You're able to shapeshift.
		What can you shapeshift into?
unidentified		I'm like a dog.
unidentified		Like a dog.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Are you a manly dog, like a German shepherd?
unidentified		I think so.
		I have like a long, like a snout.
		And yeah, I'd probably say either like a mutt.
		Sometimes I've been a German shepherd, but mainly like mutts.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, like a mutt.
		All right.
		Does it happen frequently?
		Does it happen at night, full moon?
		Or what brings it on?
unidentified		If I concentrate hard enough, because I was adopted by these real, real mean people.
		And I live on a farm.
		And if I try hard enough at night, I can turn into a person.
		So I'm mostly a dog.
		And I'm on their computer right now, and I'm trying to find answers.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're actually more dog than person.
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
unidentified		And I'm trying to find answers.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, well, one thing that everybody would want to know, we all wonder what a dog's life is like.
unidentified		Well, you kind of just sleep.
		You wag your tail.
		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Now, does tail wagging absolutely mean you're happy, or is it just sort of a reflexive action, you know, to any response?
unidentified		Both, I'd probably say.
		Okay.
		And how do you feel about cats?
		It's all cat.
		Sometimes I can feel some like some negative energy, and I usually stay away from them, but some of them are kind of nice.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
		Most dogs wouldn't say that about cats.
		Generally, I think their reaction is more negative than positive.
		Let's see, what else can I ask you about a dog's life?
		I mean, you know, tell me.
unidentified		Well, half the day I'm usually trying to hide from my owners because I told you they're mean.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Mean, yes.
unidentified		They're very mean.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, some people are really mean to dogs.
unidentified		Yeah, I just don't like them.
unidentified		I try to run away, but they got a shot caller.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I mean, what's that like getting brought up short with a collar?
		Oh, that must be awful.
		On a chain, probably.
unidentified		I've been trying to research how to take it off, but it doesn't work.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you ever feel like, well, biting your owners?
unidentified		I feel like they would put me down if I tried, so I haven't.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Put you down.
unidentified		That's the way to put it, I guess, yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, how about food?
unidentified		I mean, they sometimes leave out table scraps, but I usually have to eat the gross dog food, and I don't like it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So even as a dog, it's gross.
unidentified		It's gross.
unidentified		But you've got to eat or you'll die.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's true.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm trying to think of anything else I can ask you.
unidentified		I'm just trying to be quiet because I don't want them to wake up.
unidentified		And here are you admitting that you're their dog.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's very worrisome.
		All right.
		Well, listen, I wish I could on the spot think of more to ask you.
		But I can't.
unidentified		Oh, God.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What?
unidentified		They're coming upstairs.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're going to have to change.
unidentified		I got to go.
		I got to go.
		I'm sorry.
		I'm going.
		See you later.
		See you later.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
		Yes, indeed.
		Well, it's Friday night, and I asked for it, right?
		The one thing I haven't heard yet is I hate Art Bell.
		I've got the Weird Addiction line.
		This one line carries all these things.
		Weird Addiction Line, I Hate Art Bell, Soulless People, somebody snuck in under that one, and shape shifters.
		And we just had our first shape shifter.
		If you are any of those things or want to talk about them, it is area code 575-208-7787.
		575-208-7787.
		I was going to ask him about fire hydrants, but I thought, nah, that's rude.
		Right?
		First time caller line, you are on the air.
unidentified		Who?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You.
unidentified		Me?
		You.
		Goodness gracious.
		Well, I was looking at your listening to the thing about the, what is it, the things you're addicted to.
		Yes.
		Yeah, I'm afraid I'm, oh, since 1951, I got my amateur license.
		But before that, I was a kid bootlegging on the air.
		That wasn't very nice.
		But nevertheless, I'm addicted to radio.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, you know, I think, frankly, most people who begin in radio start bootlegging something or another.
		I've done it.
		I admit it.
		And I think most people in radio have done that.
unidentified		Well, you know what?
		I would probably have never gotten into it as deep as I am now.
		I used to work on avionics for quite a while.
		And most of the stuff is, I never went to radio school, it's all been self-taught.
		And I wound up eventually working on deep-sea ships mostly.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		Yeah, on all the telegraph gear and the radar and anything electronic on the ship on the bridge.
unidentified		And it wound up being breaking up on you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, now you're really breaking up on us.
unidentified		I'm breaking up on you.
		Oh, goodness.
		Goodness gracious.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		A good radio guy will get to the bottom that quick.
unidentified		I'm on some stupid little one of these UHF wireless phones right now.
		So that might be what it is.
		Is this any better?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, it's understandable now, yeah.
unidentified		Oh, okay.
		Because I was getting ready to say that I was away from the base unit.
		Nevertheless, I was in that for years, working for Mark Coney, then Mackie Radio, and going all over the blessed world.
		But I had a lot of fun, and I still have fun, and I've got too many radios now.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You think you've got a bunch?
		Take a look at my picture.
		Thank you very much for the call.
		It is, without question, very, very addictive.
		And I've got a lot of radios.
		I've got radios stacked in my wife hates it.
		She absolutely hates it.
		She will not, you know, she is a woman of order, right?
		Everything in its place and a place for everything.
		And she will not even look in my closet.
		Rarely do I look in my closet.
		On our special line, you're on here.
unidentified		Hello.
		Hello.
		Hi, can you hear me now?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I can hear you, yes.
unidentified		Yes, sir.
		I wanted to tell you that I hate Art, Bill, because there's never anybody on here who really explains the projection of the astral body correctly.
		And I'm here to help you with that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
unidentified		Go ahead.
		If I could leave you with anything, Art, in our brief conversation, is that the way to teach yourself to recognize your astral body is to auto-suggest to yourself that you are going to wake up in your sleep and you are actually going to look down and see yourself laying there.
		Now, when a person does this, you actually get very excited, and especially the first time that you do it, and maybe successive times that you do it, you will do a thing that is called repercussion, and it's when you just instantly go back to your body.
		As long as you're a physically alive person, you will always have this mechanism.
		It's a fail-safe mechanism built into the incidence when it happens and occurs that just takes you right back to your body.
		And it usually happens because the first time that you do it and look down and you're really conscious of what you're doing, you see your physical body and you get so excited that, like I said, you repercuss.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, you know, this is a little bit of a false flag call because you don't really hate me.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You just wanted to get in on this line to be able to say all that.
unidentified		Right.
		Because I've heard so long now, people, and if I may say so, there's a very famous book that was written almost 100 years ago called The Projection of the Astral Body that was written in 1921 that goes over all the terminology that they diagnose for the projection of the astral body.
		Also going into like where you could actually go into different times and all right, well, look, I will try what you have suggested.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you for the call, but really you were sort of just abusing that line, frankly.
		I'm sorry about that.
		Very quickly, let's go to Skype and say hello to Ryan.
unidentified		Hello, Ark.
unidentified		Up here, state of Washington.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, sir.
unidentified		And let me mute my audio.
		There we go.
		I wanted to veer off track here for just a little bit.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The whole show is off track.
unidentified		Don't worry.
unidentified		If there's anything I'm addicted to, it is trying to find out more about the gray aliens, the non-human EVEs.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, they're not necessarily the good ones.
unidentified		But I just wanted to mention to the audience that there are now credible slides, credible video, credible tutorial.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'll tell you what, I've got a break coming up.
		Gray aliens, I'll hold you over.
		How's that?
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, stay right there.
unidentified		All right, stay right there.
		Don't you hurt?
		She must have Midnight Matter can be explored on Midnight in the Desert with our bell.
		If using spec from your computer, please be sure to use a headset mic and call MITD51.
		That's MITD51.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It is.
		How you doing it?
		But the open lines anything you want to talk about goes, and we've got a kind of a quad-based line, special line tonight.
unidentified		Now, if you have a weird addiction, we want to hear from you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		If you hate me, I want to hear from you, but it better be real hate.
		Soulless people are welcome to call that line, as are shape-shifters.
		We had somebody barking at us there just a little while ago.
		The number to call is area code 575-208-77-87.
		575-208-7787.
		Let's go back to Ryan.
		You're back on the air, Ryan.
unidentified		Yeah, Art.
unidentified		I was wondering if there's anybody in the audience that would like to view credible, possible images, slides, video of actual gray alien non-humans.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Heck yeah.
unidentified		Okay.
unidentified		The good thing is that all you have to do is go to artbell.com and look up Roger Lear's show and look at the material that he presented on his show that day.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Dr. Lear.
unidentified		I happen to know quite a bit about this case.
		Just a little background.
		There was seven people that witnessed a dome-shaped silver metallic craft over the ocean near Turkey.
		Now, Roger Lear was there doing a conference, and he's photographed there.
		He was there.
		He saw it himself.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that's right.
		I know.
		It occurred during the conference.
		I know what you're talking about.
unidentified		Right, right, right.
unidentified		So I just wanted to put that out there because we talk about these subjects all the time.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm surprised that Turkey didn't warn it and try to shoot it down.
unidentified		Right.
		One thing that I found out about it is that it happened over a fault line, which I don't know if that has anything to do with it.
		But one of the more interesting things about this video is it was actually filmed on Mini DV Cassette, which is a physical film.
		And it's got digital.
		So it's very, very hard to hoax, to fake.
		You'd have to slice it up and cut it up.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I remember it occurred during a conference.
unidentified		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you very much for the reminder.
		And he is right.
		The late Dr. Lear did indeed see and film exactly that.
		So I want to look into it.
		All right.
		On our weird line with four possibilities, you're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hello.
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hello.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
		I just wanted to say that I hate you.
		You hate me?
		Yes, sir, I do.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Good.
unidentified		And the reason I hate you is because since the early 90s, I have been absolutely addicted to your show and lost sleep over it all the time.
		I stay up all night long and listen to your radio show.
		So I just wanted to say that.
		Well, you're the best radio host, and I love you.
		And it's awesome.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, thank you.
		Look, that is such a false flag four times now.
		If you're going to call the I Hate Art Bell line, for God's sakes, get up a little bit of real hate.
		Put some pizazz into it.
		Don't use it just as a reason to get through.
		Yeah, I know it's easier to get through.
		And by the way, we will do during the last 10 minutes of the show tonight.
		People are asking for it.
		I've been doing it.
		So tonight we will do Fast Blast during about the last 10 minutes.
		And that means everybody gets to call.
		You get about 10 seconds, if you're lucky, on the air.
		Maybe a sentence.
		I felt I should explain Fast Blast.
		Maybe a sentence.
		So if you have something you want to get across, and it's really important, form it into a single sentence and get ready to say it during Fast Blast.
unidentified		All right?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Let's go to Kennewick, I think, Washington.
unidentified		Hello.
unidentified		Teacher Chakra Nooki, Bulona Stefi Arkbelt.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That sounds like a Native American Santa.
unidentified		No, that was my job of the Hutt at First Nation.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, welcome to the show anyway.
unidentified		Hey, Arp.
		Well, I'd probably say I hate you for being on hold for two hours.
		Yeah.
		That's fine.
		I'm actually surprised that there hasn't been a lot of people talking about your top news stories about the first contact on the radio.
		That's right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, you know what, sir?
		I think, number one, it takes people time to absorb this, and they go read, and we've got to figure out if it's real.
		It certainly sounds real.
		I'm familiar with that telescope.
		It's one of the biggies that look for this kind of thing.
		So, yeah, it could be real.
		You know, it's just there's a lot of reactions to this sort of thing.
		One of them is negative.
		A lot of people either get scared or they don't know what to make of it.
		It's something you've got to process.
unidentified		You know, I think, you know, in our mythos of like, you know, what we try to determine what first contact would be like, it's always been like, say, a physical presence where like aliens just appear.
		And then we have to figure out if they're hostile or benevolent.
		Right.
		But I mean, here's like a kind of a third option where like maybe our first contact, if it is actually an alien civilization, will be long-range radio signals or some other form of communication.
		And then, you know, it's like when we, as humans, I think it's easy to process aliens, especially if they're not really physically here and they're just out there.
		But what I was just curious is like, if that was actually a radio signal where we actually intercepted some sort of communication and then began to actually have real communications in whatever form that could be, like, I wonder what who, would there be like a consensus of all the countries or would it be just Americans?
		And then, you know, once we get further, you know, invested communicating with these aliens, we further, you know, culture, I mean, right now, at least in America, there's so much like cultural upheaval.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, you know what?
		This is so much overused, sir, but I do think this, I think that if it was a verified alien signal, that it would bring the world together to some great degree.
		Yeah, I do.
		I really do.
unidentified		I don't know.
		I think we're still in this.
		I don't think we're paranoid against aliens.
		I think we're paranoid against other countries.
		Because any communication that we have with aliens, where it's radio, who's going to control that?
		And then you have, you know, all the, I mean, I know we have supposed and supposed allies around the world, but that's, you know, they're tentative at best if some deal can be struck with, you know, an outside force with technology that will that will give another country the edge.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, okay, think about this.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Think about how horrible it would be if we did get in communication with aliens and all they wanted to do was speak to Putin.
unidentified		I know, or some other country.
		I mean, I'm not American-centric that it should be us.
		I think there's a huge chance that aliens come here and they look at America with a military force that's the greatest size of all the first ten countries combined and be like, whoa.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I mean, they might want to just speak to the Swiss.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You could understand that.
unidentified		Or the Belgians or something.
		Right.
		Right.
		Yeah, I'm.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Still there?
unidentified		Oh, yeah.
		Yeah.
		I thought you were going to say something.
		But no, I would just think that what I'm really interested in is if we see a culture that maybe has superior technology, but we do not like their culture or the way they handle themselves on their own planet, I would be surprised if there wouldn't be some pressure to cease communication if we don't like the way in which their culture acts on their own planet.
		Maybe, like, there's, you know, two distinct gender groups, like male and female, and one is, like, you know, like a really, like...
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What if we got in touch with an alien race and it was nothing but males or nothing but females?
unidentified		Yeah, that's interesting.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		They didn't even understand the concept.
		I mean, there is such a thing as reproduction without members of the opposite sex being available or needed.
		All right, well, listen, thank you very much for the call.
		That's a good point, actually, isn't it?
		Imagine that.
		If we encountered a race of beings that was different enough that they didn't require or didn't have an opposite sex, so there'd be a lot of things they wouldn't understand.
		Well, and I might add a lot of things they wouldn't fight over.
		Cynthia, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hi, I have a couple of addictions I'd like to share.
		Certainly.
		My first is milk.
		And believe it or not, I spend more on milk than I do on tobacco every week.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, either you don't smoke a lot or you really drink lots and lots and lots of milk.
unidentified		Both.
		I drink about three gallons a week.
		And how much do you smoke?
		A six-ounce bag usually lasts me about three weeks.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Did you say a six-ounce bag?
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Of raw tobacco?
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		And it lasts me about three weeks.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So you roll your own?
unidentified		Well, actually, I smoke a pipe, but yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You smoke a pipe?
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		That's how I get away with smoking so little.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How do people react to that?
unidentified		I think it's kind of strange that a female smokes a pipe.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Exactly.
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Exactly.
unidentified		Oh, well.
unidentified		That's life.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's also a strange addiction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So you qualify.
unidentified		Okay.
		Another addiction I have is house plants.
		And my daughter tries to steer me away from any place that sells live plants.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I understand.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		They're all over the house.
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How many plants would you say you have?
unidentified		I don't have as much as I used to, but before I had kids, I had over 100 plants in my apartment.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		100.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In an apartment.
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That qualifies, totally.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Buried alive.
unidentified		And the other addiction is since I was introduced to your program a few minutes ago or a few months ago, I've been listening almost every night.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's an okay addiction.
unidentified		All right.
unidentified		Cynthia, thank you, and have a good night.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Keep on trucking and smoking, I guess.
		A pipe?
		That is pretty unusual.
		You don't see a lot of women smoking pipes, do you?
		Let's go to, well, back to our weird line.
		You're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
		Is it me?
		It is you.
spontane in unknown ▲ ● ▼		Obviously.
spontane in unknown ▲ ● ▼		Okay, this is Fontaine.
unidentified		Howdy.
spontane in unknown ▲ ● ▼		And my addiction is to genealogy and then meeting the people that I find in history in my bloodline and having interactions with them in the dream time.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, really?
		So in other words, you look people up, you find them.
		I find them, you trace your lineage, and then you have a dream and meet them.
spontane in unknown ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
spontane in unknown ▲ ● ▼		And sometimes we get along and sometimes we don't.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I guess that is part of lucid dreaming, huh?
spontane in unknown ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's part of dreaming.
spontane in unknown ▲ ● ▼		I don't know how I'd categorize it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, no, no, no, no.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Lucid dreaming means you can direct your own dreams.
spontane in unknown ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, technically, you're supposed to be able to do that before you go to sleep, and I don't do that.
		I just go, okay, I'm going to dream tonight, and what is Spirit going to bring me?
		And then if they bring me one of my dead ancestors, then we have an interaction.
unidentified		Okay.
spontane in unknown ▲ ● ▼		In other words, I'm not saying I want to meet my dead ancestor tonight.
spontane in unknown ▲ ● ▼		It's like I'd like to, but I never know what they're going to throw at me when I dream.
unidentified		So, you know?
spontane in unknown ▲ ● ▼		So when they send a dead ancestor, it's like really cool.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do they don't actually throw things at you?
spontane in unknown ▲ ● ▼		Well, no, they, well.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I mean, your family.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		They do throw things at you.
unidentified		We could stay on the phone for hours if I told you everything.
unidentified		So they do throw things at you?
spontane in unknown ▲ ● ▼		Sometimes, yeah.
unidentified		Like one of the shadow people.
spontane in unknown ▲ ● ▼		And I had a positive experience with a shadow person, and I'd love talking about that some other time when we're not off topic.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I can only imagine.
spontane in unknown ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, it's really fun.
		I have a big time in the dream time.
		But genealogy is fascinating.
		I decided for everyone.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
spontane in unknown ▲ ● ▼		And I can't stop.
		When I start doing it, I can't stop.
		I time warm when I'm doing it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Right.
spontane in unknown ▲ ● ▼		And I can't stop.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's an addiction.
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Well, thank you very much for the call.
		That's actually sort of interesting.
		She can research her family tree, come up with something she'd like to talk to.
unidentified		And there you go.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Strange.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Amanda, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
unidentified		How are you?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm very well.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
unidentified		Good.
		Three quick things.
		Yes.
		The first, I know the signals from space are very exciting, but there's another breaking story, and I thought you'd have more of a personal interest in it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And that would be?
unidentified		I think NASA found Abby Normal on Mars.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, I know.
		I've seen the photograph.
		It does look like a mouse.
		Absolutely.
unidentified		Does it look like Abby?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I don't know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		A mouse is a mouse is a mouse.
unidentified		I thought there was a personal connection.
		Okay.
		Second thing.
		Whose idea was it for the Do You Hate Me line?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I don't know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Somebody, I asked for ideas earlier on Facebook, and somebody suggested that one, and I thought, why not?
unidentified		Oh, I was wondering if maybe you thought your stalker was that stupid or maybe hated you that much that maybe it was a trap.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, it's not a trap.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I thought maybe, you know, maybe people hate me, would like to express it, so why not?
unidentified		Well, I think a lot of people hate your stalker.
unidentified		So, you know, if we can goad him into maybe revealing himself, we'll go get him.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And the third.
unidentified		The last thing is my strange addiction.
unidentified		And again, it started shortly after your return.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
unidentified		And it's to your wonderful fan group on Facebook, our Bellsman Night in the Desert.
		I'm addicted.
		I must be there every night.
		I get depressed if I fall asleep for one of your shows and miss it.
		They're wonderful, intelligent, insightful people.
		And back in the day, I know you don't like these stories, but back in the day when we were all younger, I used to listen to you.
		And people in my area just, you know, maybe they'd be asleep or not interested, but I knew there were people all around the world listening and thinking about the things you were saying and dreaming along with you and everything.
		But now that you're back with social media, it's so interactive and it's such a wonderful community.
		And thank you.
		And it's a wonderful addiction.
		I'm glad I'm hooked.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Well, thank you.
		And thank you for the plug.
		I'm more than happy to have everybody plug the social site that they're on.
		There are so many of them, quite a few of them, actually, that sort of chat along as we do the program.
		So if you have one and you want to plug it and you're part of it, do it when you're on the air and you will do nothing but grow your group.
unidentified		Right?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Why not?
		Hello there on our strange line.
		You're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
		Hello.
		How are you doing, Art?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm very well, thanks.
unidentified		Well, I don't, I don't know how to put this.
unidentified		I'm not a shapeshifter, but I have had an astral projecting person come in my home.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So you've had somebody astrally projecting show up at your home?
unidentified		Yes, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And could you visually see them?
		Did this occur during a dream?
		Were you awake?
unidentified		How did it manifest?
		I was wide awake and the electricity in the room became so powerful.
		I actually thought an angel was going to manifest.
		It's what I thought because it was so powerful.
		My cat completely freaked out.
		It certainly wasn't an imagination.
		Yep, cats know.
		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So what did this astrally projecting person do?
unidentified		They were probably here to curse me.
		They'll harm me.
		Well, that's not good.
		No, it really wasn't.
		I'm very protected.
		I have to tell you that I am an active intercessor, spiritual warrior.
		And so there are certain people that might try to.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, if you're a spiritual warrior, I'm sure you dispatch them quickly.
unidentified		Actually, I think it was the angel.
unidentified		I can't take any credit for it at all.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, an angel wouldn't be there to curse you unless we really, really misunderstand angels.
		But according to everything I've ever seen, they're supposed to be kind, soft, loving, what have you.
		First time caller line, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
		Hello, Art.
		Can you hear me?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I hear you.
unidentified		Hi, this is Sunny.
		I actually tried to call earlier on Skype and I had some technical difficulties.
		It happened.
		Yes.
		Well, you know the alien contacts that we may have possibly made?
		Yes.
		I think I might know who that is.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And that would be...
silverdale in washington ▲ ● ▼		It's the Sayrays.
unidentified		The Sayrays?
silverdale in washington ▲ ● ▼		They're applying.
unidentified		They're giving us a sign.
unidentified		Ah, the Sayrays, yes.
silverdale in washington ▲ ● ▼		That was a great show.
unidentified		Can I plug a group really quick?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You can.
silverdale in washington ▲ ● ▼		Sure, it's Art Bell Fans Undercover of the Night.
silverdale in washington ▲ ● ▼		Larkin Walken runs it.
unidentified		She's awesome.
silverdale in washington ▲ ● ▼		Everybody in there is pretty awesome.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The name of the group one more time, please?
unidentified		Sure.
		Art Bell Fans Undercover of the Night.
		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How many of you are there?
unidentified		Let me check really quickly.
silverdale in washington ▲ ● ▼		Oh, it's a handful.
unidentified		It's actually a pretty small group.
unidentified		but there are a few regulars, probably about 10 or 12 regulars.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, well, then you may grow the group.
unidentified		Yes, absolutely.
		And I've just recently started listening to your show, and it's fantastic.
		I'm absolutely hooked.
		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you so much.
unidentified		Thanks.
		Have a good night.
		You too.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, plug your groups.
		Some of them are really big with hundreds, if not thousands, of members.
		And some of them are small and just beginning.
		Little seeds that, you know, have a little water and a little sunshine.
unidentified		And they grow and they grow and they grow.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So happy to have you plug when you can get through.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Let's go to Bill on Skype.
unidentified		Hi.
		Hey, I didn't expect that.
		I got to get my pencil down right now.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Watch that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Run all that by me again.
unidentified		Let me see.
		Okay, we're good.
		Now, when you had that second, a guy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Bill, you're kind of breaking up on us here, buddy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Now, still breaking up a little, but try it.
unidentified		All that guy wanted was for people to say you.
		I hate the fact that people called up and disrespected him so much.
		We have all the proof that we're going to get.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, look, I don't think that asking for proof is disrespect.
unidentified		Well, we have all the proof we're going to get, is my opinion.
		I mean, we have video, but like you say, you know, we can take them too good.
		Nobody's going to believe them.
		We have documentation, but they've been redacted.
		Why would they redact?
		Why would people redact all that?
		Richard Dolan even, you know, let me know.
		Ms. W. Since you have said we have proof, what proof?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What proof has been redacted?
unidentified		How many documents from NASA has been redacted?
		A guy that NASA tried to pay to write a book proving they went to the moon actually gave the advance back because NASA wouldn't give him the evidence to prove that we went to the moon or what they showed us we went to the moon.
		Again.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Pardon?
		I think that's good proof.
		Something redacted is proof?
unidentified		Oh, am I still breaking up?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No.
unidentified		Oh, because I just explained that, I thought.
unidentified		No, all the, okay, the gentleman that was going to write the book to help NASA prove that what they showed us was live.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
unidentified		But all the documents that he kept getting to go in their favor were redacted documents, and he couldn't do anything with them.
		So he gave the advance back.
		Okay.
		To me, stuff like that, and I mean, we could talk for three days about stuff that's funny, all the way from, you know, Carter with his hands, you know, sobbing at his desk.
		I mean, I don't know what it is that's so bad, but I thought the gentleman the other night, I thought he really was on something and he wasn't asking anybody.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Maybe he was.
		Who knows?
		But, you know, it is within the right of callers on this show to say, hey, give me some proof.
		I'm sorry, I'm not buying it.
		This is an open show.
		You know, they can either buy it or not buy it.
		We just present.
		I can't guarantee what callers are going to say.
		Just like I can't guarantee what you're going to say.
unidentified		Yeah, I understand that.
		I don't know.
		Maybe I just felt a little like he was disrespected.
		But anyway, you wanted some true hate, and I couldn't get, I didn't know what the number was.
		I'm trying to pretend like I hate you.
		Oh, I'm giving you my best shot.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, thank you very much for the call.
unidentified		You're welcome.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And you have one as well.
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Look, this is a different kind of program.
		The calls we have, as you know, are not screened.
		I don't control, nor do I try to control, what the callers say.
		If their BS meter is going off the scale, they have a right to say so.
unidentified		And I'm not going to stop that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's all I can say.
		It's an open talk show.
		Hello there.
		You're on the air.
unidentified		Hey, Art.
unidentified		How's it going?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Things are going well.
unidentified		Thank you.
		Hey, I've been listening to you for a long time, and I've called in a few times.
		But something recently jogged my memory.
		I wanted to ask you about it, and I haven't really seen any updates on it online.
		I check in every so often, but it's the John Teeter occurrence.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, he is?
unidentified		I was wondering if there's anything new about him.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Absolutely not.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		John Teeter has not poked his head into 2015 yet that I'm aware of.
unidentified		Oh, yeah, yeah.
unidentified		That's kind of, I guess it wouldn't be an addiction, but it's kind of a little obsession with mine is that whole thing that happened with him back in, was it 2000 and 2001?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Right.
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And if you're asking if there's anything new, no, there's not.
unidentified		Yeah, it was a really interesting occurrence.
unidentified		It's something that keeps me coming back to that every so often.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, well, keep coming back.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		If I hear from him, you'll be the first to know.
unidentified		All right, thanks a lot.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		We'll get it on there, you bet.
		Outside the country, on Skype, you're on the air.
		Hello, Mike.
unidentified		Hello.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi, you are there.
unidentified		I am here.
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Good.
		Where are you, Mike?
		Where are you, Mike?
unidentified		I'm in Northampton in UK.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, very good.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What's up?
unidentified		Uh yeah, it's just this fast radio bastards.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm sorry.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What was that, Mike?
unidentified		Uh yeah.
		The news story you have, yes.
		About fast radio bastards.
		Um from Australia?
		Yes.
		Yeah.
		Um this has been uh debunked already.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Already.
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		Uh it was caused by a microwave oven.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No.
		No Mike.
		The old uh one of the old signals that was associated with that same sort of fast burst was in fact debunked uh as microwave ovens being opened prematurely.
		That's in the article.
		That's in the article.
		But not in this new one.
unidentified		Okay.
unidentified		Well, I'm I've been educated, but I apologize.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No problem.
		Thank you for the call.
		They mention it, as a matter of fact, in the article that one of the older signals that they thought they had that was really good was debunked.
		And it was, in fact, people opening microwave ovens too quickly that sent out a signal on, what, 2.4?
		Big signal on 2.4.
		That's where that radiation is.
		Okay, folks, coming up on a break.
		We'll be back in about 7.
unidentified		We will, we will rock you.
		We will, we will rock you.
		Oh, baby, I'll take you down.
		I'll take you down now.
		When no one's ever gone before.
		You want more.
		You want more.
		More.
		More.
		There's nothing.
		This is Midnight in the Desert.
		To call the show.
		If you're East of Midnight, call 1952.
		Call Art.
		If you're West of Midnight, call 1952-225-5278.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's the way it's done.
		Don't forget we're going to end up the show tonight with Bast Blast.
		And that means I'm going to open up all the numbers for anybody.
		You can call up and issue one fast sentence that gets your point across your emotion, your gut feeling, and do it really quickly.
		And we'll just run through a lot of calls.
		So that'll be all the lines involved.
		The national line, of course, 952-225-5278.
		First time caller line, area code 775-285-5800.
		Or the Weird Addiction line, I Hate RFL line, Soulless People line, and Shapeshifter line, all combined at 575, the area code 208-7787.
		That's 575-208-7787.
		But we're not into Past Blast yet.
		First time caller line, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hi.
		Hello, Art.
		Hi.
		Hi.
		Hey, I just wanted to let you know that I've been listening to you for about 20 years, and this is the first time I've called in because I thought it was something of paramount importance.
		Okay.
		All right.
		So I kind of wanted to call in on the soulless person line, but I thought that I do have my moments of soul.
		But for the most part, I live in total ambiguity.
		Well, you say you have moments of soul?
		Moments of soul.
		It all started about 18 months ago.
		I was just at work.
		I'm currently self-employed, but at one time I worked for somebody else.
		I came home and started to have a lot of different symptoms.
		Symptoms that were unexplainable.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Like what?
unidentified		Forgetfulness, tremors in my hands, a lack of the ability to sleep, restlessness, anxiety.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That doesn't sound like a soulless experience.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That sounds like a go-to-the-doctor experience.
unidentified		Well, at the end of the 18-month period of time, I was mindless.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Completely mindless?
unidentified		Mindless, like a block of clay in my head.
		Okay.
		Yes.
		The doctors looked at me.
		They couldn't come to a conclusion.
		I went to an ophthalmologist.
		My eyelids were all swollen and puffy at the eyelash line.
		And then I found out that someone had come in during the day and installed a smart meter on the other side of my headboard of my bedroom.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Smart meter?
		Why would that be inside?
		You mean it was outside?
unidentified		Yeah, the electric meter that registers the usage on the house.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So are you suggesting that the smart meter stole your soul?
unidentified		Yeah, it puts out borderline microwave frequencies that my head was 36 inches from.
unidentified		And now I can barely drive to Walmart now.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		God, that is a disability.
		Well, I don't know what to say.
		Have you called the electric company to complain?
unidentified		Yes, I have.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And what did they say?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I mean, I'm sure you said, look, your meter is just on the other side of my bed, and it's taken my soul, and I want it back.
unidentified		Well, the reason I say it made me soulless is because I have trouble putting thoughts together.
		And if I'm watching a movie that's really good and everybody in the room thinks it's really good, I just walk out.
		Yeah, just kind of in my own little dialect.
		But I wanted to let you know that they did say that there was an opt-out that was able, because there are so many complaints of people saying that they had different effects from the microwave pulses that go on continuously with these meters.
		And I didn't know anything about it.
		I thought a smart meter was just something that transmitted the usage over the hardwire lines.
		That is the idea, yes.
		Actually, it transmits through the air, I believe, right through my brain.
		Uh-huh.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I get it.
		All right.
		Well, I'm sorry to hear it.
		And I'm glad that you were able to opt out.
		Now, I don't know that that means you've got your soul back.
		Dr. Strange, hello.
unidentified		Hello.
wolfman in dm talkers ▲ ● ▼		How are you?
		Okay, sir.
		Remember when you asked for it to rain and you asked your fans to help?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		When what?
wolfman in dm talkers ▲ ● ▼		I'm sorry.
wolfman in dm talkers ▲ ● ▼		You asked your fans to make it rain in a certain area.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yes.
wolfman in dm talkers ▲ ● ▼		Yes, yes.

art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, huh?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No rain?
wolfman in dm talkers ▲ ● ▼		Anyways, my story, what I called about, is about Lake Erie monster.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
wolfman in dm talkers ▲ ● ▼		So when I was a child, I was fishing with my dad, and he was doing a project for Public Works Canada on Lake Erie.
wolfman in dm talkers ▲ ● ▼		is on the Canadian side, right?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, real quick, because we have to go to...
wolfman in dm talkers ▲ ● ▼		Like, I thought it was dolphins jumping, but I was 11 years old.
		The fisherman beside me looked at it and dropped his fishing pole into the water because he was so shocked.
		Like, this thing was out at the distance when it goes gray into the far distance, like when you see an oil tanker out there.
		But it was coiling, coiling around, and you could see the coils of this thing going through the water.
		So this is huge.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Sounds like that thing on the commercial that picks up the golfer.
wolfman in dm talkers ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I knew you were going to make a joke out of this.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm not a joke.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Andrew, I mean, that's kind of what you're describing.
wolfman in dm talkers ▲ ● ▼		Well, it was huge, though, Art, and it was a sighting that many people saw it, and it was very shocking to us.
		It was some kind of a serpent creature on the, way out there, and there's all kinds of Indian legends from the natives that say that it'll take the children in, and we have a lot of people missing.
		You've got to watch out for the undertow.
		They say it could be the undertow, but it could be the monster.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Could you have a monster as well?
		All right.
		Well, thank you very much.
		There is a commercial, I'm sure you've all seen it, where the golfer is grabbed.
		And anyway, here comes Fast Blast.
		Now, what I'm going to do is just keep taking calls as quick as I can.
