TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE MIDNIGHT (An abridged version)

*WITH EDITS FROM THE FINE FOLKS AT BELLGAB

TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE MIDNIGHT
And all through the ‘Coast,’
U7 was busy
Playing all past Ghost to Ghosts

Bell fans were nestled all snug with earbuds
While tales of Mel’s hole replaced Noory’s old sludge
And Hoagland with glass Moons and Area 51,
Nostalgia was strong, Bell was missed a ton.

When out from my radio there arose such a clatter
I sprung from my smartphone to see what was the matter
Away to the shortwave I flew like a flash
And heard and old friend’s voice as the thunder .wav clashed.

The Chase was the sound under the midnight moon’s glare
Crystal Gayle’s song set the moon with care
when what to my schtrange eyes should appear
But a Premiere Executive And George’s famed snear

With Tommy so sluggish, not lively or quick
Tried to best to stay with Art’s schtick
More rapid their heartbeats as July 20th came
The product they feature is often quite lame

“Now Tommy! Now Lisa!
Now cue cards and Guests hosts
Like Garr and Willis
Advertise dating!
You’re not alone
But Art’s back
Coast is for Drones

And then in a twinkling I heard on the roof
Julie Talbott figure out that they’ve given us goofs
As I turned off the old show my head was turning around
I saw Noory’s stache falling with a frown

The Kingdom of Nye was steamrolling back
Art Bell’s old bumpers were found on the stack
The Desert is alive with the noise of the night
Shadow people and aliens, Time Travel and Flight.

Midnight has come, and it’s been so long
Sirius was ok, but Chunga was wrong.
No matter all that, the Desert’s Alive
Dick Hoagland’s prepped to take us till 5

Art Bell is back, with a thunderous roar
The Night is Alive.
Goodbye to the bores.

A tale of two Clydes.

Don’t get me wrong, I love Clyde Lewis. And Art Bell. But it sure is interesting to see how Clyde Lewis has changed his viewpoint about the Art Bell return to radio.. a few days ago a listener asked Lewis if he would interview Bell. You can see from his response that the answer was defiantly NO.

A few days later, Lewis’ flagship station KXL in Portland picked up MIDNIGHT IN THE DESERT. And last night, as seen here, Bell and Lewis had a phone call like old times.

Competition one day, a team the next. Radio is a funny biz..

THE MIDNIGHT HOUR (AND AFTERSHOW) COMETH

As Art Bell winds down his last week off before starting MIDNIGHT IN THE DESERT on July 20, big news is breaking involving his return: Home of Ground Zero with Clyde Lewis is adding Bell’s program to the lineup. KXL in Portland Oregon, a massive station with wide coverage over the Northwest, will air 10pm to 1am immediately after Lewis’ program.

MORE..

In the press release from Alpha Media, Scott Mahalick, executive VP of programming, said, “We’re thrilled to be amping up our paranormal broadcast activity with the addition of Art Bell following Clyde Lewis’ Ground Zero. It’s a home run for Alpha Media to have the two biggest talents anchored on FM NEWS 101 KXL.”

Recent days has seen other Bell related tidbits popping up around the internet.Steve Warner recently interviewed famed Coast guest Richard C. Hoagland about the ‘soap opera’ that has become Coast to Coast. Hoagland won an old bet to host one night of Coast, and he asked George Noory to allow him to broadcast today during the amazing NASA Pluto flyby. Though Noory originally agreed, the planned suddenly changed with Coast producers telling Hoagland he can have a night on July 20–the same night that Bell begins his show. Instead, the tables were turned with the OTHER SIDE OF MIDNIGHT being announced and Hoagland getting the chance to do his own program after MIDNIGHT. Coast effectively banned him from future appearances on that show.

As Bell gets prepped for his radio gig to restart, he is also did a REDDIT AMA at 630 July 14.

The countdown clock gets closer to midnight..
And the big stations are now lining up.

The science world rocked.. The space world changed.. and a view we had of Pluto has been thrown out the window by the reality of what the New Horizons has found.

This is amazing..
Exciting.
New mountains of youth.. formations of a planet (or drawf planet) still ongoing..

Pluto and the moon Charon have virtually no craters.
It has 11,000 foot mountains of water ice.
The moon Charon ‘blew the socks off’ of scientists …
Pluto’s heart shaped area had then sentimental.

And all the while I keep pondering whether Richard Hoagland is right about an ancient civilization inhabiting all of the planets of our solar system.. No word on whether the big old library was found on Pluto, but it sure seems historic things where..

There is a good article from BLOOMBERG here summarizing this.. Some more links:
