I have been following JOHN B WELLS for some time .. For those who don’t know who he is, he was once the weekend host of Coast to Coast AM. He left the program to do his own show, the CARAVAN TO MIDNIGHT–or he was forced out by George Noory and company at Coast–and now he has a pay-per-listen business and broadcasts daily. Ironically, his ‘Midnight’ show airs during the daytime hours. 

He also hosts conspiracy topics. Often I agree with him.  Often I don’t. But I have always been entertained by his style, his voice, and his knowledge and seemingly amazing memory of interesting tidbits of music, UFOlogy, and conspiracy theory.

In this video linked here, he unloads quite a bit on Alex Jones, George Noory, and Michael Savage.. It was quite extraordinary to hear some of the statements from Wells. He wants nothing to do with Alex Jones’ INFOWARS, and even alleges that the site simply regurgitates the stories of others and credits themselves with breaking news. He also goes in depth on his criticism of “Dr Savage” and Savages’ tendancy to brag about his wealth on his program.. He also gives Noory, the current COAST host, some zingers about the new ‘Paranormal Date website Noory has been promoting..

Wells was a divisive host to a degree when he was on Coast to Coast AM. However, his programs rated higher than the weekly shows hosted by Noory and often had more listeners. 
Perhaps that’s why it’s no surprise that Noory and Danheiser may have wanted Wells to be off the air..
Even Art Bell has commented on the Wells’ situation in the past.

But to hear Wells put into words some of the feelings he has evolved into having is fascinating.. Amazing.. Riveting. And regardless of what some may say about his over indulgence on Sandy Hook or other theories, he is interesting. And that is the very thing that Coast to Coast AM currently lack: Being interesting.

Just in case Jon Stewart forgot he was aging, a new YouTube video is showcasing it for posterity. From black hair to gray.. as Stewart leaves the DAILY SHOW, times have certainly changed. As has Jon Stewart’s appearance.

2 SECONDS OF HELL

Five Seconds of Summer member Michael Clifford’s hair caught on fire during a live event.. 

The guitarist was burnt and posted a photo of the aftermath..

There are times when the things that stars do are just not worth it.. I think pyrotechnics, though exciting, is one of the least desirable things to accompany an act, regardless of the trade or entertainment sport.. 

Michael Jackson was the cautionary fire tale in the 80s. The early 2000s saw clubs burned down and people killed.

This is the newest I hope more bands take notice: Stop using fire during music acts.

Possessed teenagers, doppelgänger schoolteachers, and demonic dolls all feature on our list of the paranormal … frightening paranormal thought provoking mysteries for a Saturday night.

Perhaps thinking of some of these will keep you awake tonight..

For wrestling fans, this may be a troubling video to see–or inspirational. The legendary Bobby the Brain Heenan showing it still has “it” even though his medical condition, clearly, has become worse as time ticks on..

There are lots of parodies of the Shia Lebeouf ‘do it’ inspirational scream.. but this one is my favorite so far.

There are some people in the coal region who have come to despise the sight of coal mines, coal hills, and coal breakers. For them, they are a sign of what the barons did to the area: Create a scorched earth while they got rich quick, leaving behind ‘company store’ towns to fend for themselves once they moved out, creating a generation of poverty, dilapidated housing, and old signs of a once booming infrastructure. The video in this post shows the St. Nicholas Coal Breaker in Mahanoy City, PA. It is there today but is going to be demolished very soon–the last of its kind in the area, where coal was once king and had the wealthy families to prove it.

There is initially some apprehension on my part about this.. demolishing something like this? Maybe this one last breaker should be preserved and restored. Maybe it should not. 
Varied opinions on the matter.
The decision has been made, though.
This sign of the past will soon be a memory. Just like lots of other structures, train stops, and memorials that are either smashed away by progress or overgrown in an area that often seems to be the place time forgot..
