Art Bell Vault: The Antichrist

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 showcase a pair of programs which explore the ominous figure known simply as the Antichrist. First, we journey back to 3/5/2001 for an episode in which Art spoke with author Kathleen Keating, who discussed biblical prophecy and recounted what she believed to be a personal encounter with the Antichrist. Although she claimed to know his or her identity, Art requested that she not reveal it to the world and so Keating spoke in coded language when referring to the person. Check out the episode and see if you can figure out who she is describing.

Next, we highlight a wild edition of the program from June 2nd, 1998 wherein Art debuted a special phone line for listeners who claim to be the Antichrist to call in. As one might imagine, an array of colorful characters proceeded to make their best case for why they are the infamous archfiend. The final hour of the program even featured several proverbial Princesses of Darkness as Art reserved that time for female callers who believed that they are the Antichrist.

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.
