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 fascinating glimpse back in time as we revisit a massive story from the 1990s that captivated the country: the O.J. Simpson trial. First, we showcase an episode from June 6, 1996, wherein Art spoke to law professor Gerald Uelmen, who served as a member of Simpson's 'Dream Team' of defense attorneys. He shared personal insights from being in the courtroom on a daily basis, opined about the televised nature of the trial, and explained why he believes the jury made the right decision in the end.
Next, we journey back to July 23, 1996, for an alternative take on the case as Art was joined by famed prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi, who put forward the argument that Simpson "got away with murder" as a result of issues with the jury and incompetence from the prosecutors. He detailed critical evidence that, for reasons unexplained, never wound up being used at trial and posited that the presentation of the then-emerging DNA science was bungled by the State of California.
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.
