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, we highlight of pair of programs covering the infamous Alien Autopsy film, which was revealed to the world in a nationally televised network special 25 years ago this coming Friday. First, we journey back to 7/17/1995 for an episode in which Art was joined by Ray Santilli, the man who kicked off the incredible story when he claimed to have come into possession of footage from a secret government medical examination of a dead extraterrestrial recovered from the Roswell crash. He details how he acquired the material, what can be seen in the video, and previews the forthcoming FOX TV special which would air a few weeks later.
Next, we skip ahead to September 4th, 1995, which was just days after Alien Autopsy: Fact or Fiction had aired on FOX and subsequently set off a massive media firestorm. In this episode, Art spoke to photographic analyst Bob Shell, who provided his take on the footage that had captured the imagination of not only the world of UFO research, but the public at large. Although the alleged autopsy movie has since been shown to be a hoax, serious consideration was given at the time to the possibility that it was real and Shell detailed several aspects of the film which suggested that may be the case as well as other parts of the material which seemed to indicate that it was not on the level.
These vintage programs have commercials and breaks removed and are presented in multiple-platforms-- available on-demand for Mac, Windows, IOS, and Android. 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.
