Our newest feature for Coast Insiders, The Art Bell Vault, offers an expanding curated collection with two vintage shows added to the mix each Wednesday. This week's offerings are a pair of memorable programs, beginning with a fascinating episode from 12/12/1996 in which Art was joined by Joyce Riley for a conversation about her research into the mysterious Gulf War Syndrome which, twelve years after this interview, was officially recognized by the US Department of Veterans Affairs.
Next, we travel back to April 5, 1996 for a classic edition of Open Lines wherein Art and the callers discussed the arrest and crimes of the infamous Unabomber, who had finally been captured by the FBI two days prior to the program. Other topics explored during the show included remote viewing, possible pieces of a downed UFO, and the question of who represents the Earth should aliens arrive and say "take me to your leader." During the program, Art also recalls spending a year working as a 911 dispatcher and provides an update on his cat named Comet.
These vintage programs have commercials and breaks removed and are presented in multiple-platforms-- available on-demand for Mac, Windows, IOS, Android, and the Coast app. Many of them feature rare "5th" hours of content from back in the 90s when the show had a longer running time. We do include Art's beloved bumper music, which became such an indelible part of his program.
And for the true Art Bell fan, we offer different listening options to fine-tune your experience, such as guest only, and full show streams. Coast Insiders, we're very happy to bring this new offering to you at no additional charge to your subscription! We welcome your feedback.
