Art Bell Vault: State Sovereignty / Immortal & International Open Lines

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 4/8/1994 in which Art spoke to Colorado State Representative Charles Duke about state sovereignty. He argued that the federal government had become too involved on the local level and that it was time for states to reclaim their right to self governance.

Next, we travel back to January 19th, 1996 for a classic edition of Open Lines where, in addition to discussing the issues of the day, Art put out a call for two very specific types of listeners: international listeners and audience members who claimed to be immortals or aliens. Among the former group were a Canadian living near the Arctic Circle and frequent C2C guest Stan Deyo, who phoned into the show from Australia. Meanwhile, those in the latter pool of callers included a woman who asserted that she cannot die and a man who suspected that he had married an immortal being.

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.
