Art Bell Vault: Slipping Into Other Dimensions / Weird 911 Calls

Just for Coast Insiders, the Art Bell Vault offers a curated collection, currently containing more than 500 programs, with two vintage shows added to the mix each Wednesday. This week's offerings are a pair of classic programs, beginning with an enlightening episode from 8/26/06 in which Art briefly spoke to psychiatrist Dr. Rick Strassman about the powerful psychedelic drug DMT and chemically induced mystical experiences. The remainder of the program featured Open Lines and included tales of time slips and the CIA's Operation Acoustic Kitty.

Next, we journey back nearly 25 years to March 29th, 2001, for a memorable edition of the program in which Art was joined by author and former Saturday Night Live writer Leland Gregory, who talked about hilarious and bizarre 911 calls. He detailed how he became friends with many emergency operators while writing a book on the subject, and they, in turn, shared their recordings of these wild moments. During his appearance, Gregory shared several clips from such calls to Art and the listeners' astonishment and amusement.

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 offering to you at no additional charge to your subscription!
