Coast to Coast AM. I still refer to this as the "Art Bell Show", even though it's mostly hosted now by George Noory and Ian Punnett. Back in the days of Art Bell, the show tended to focus on conspiracy theory and urban legends, which I love. Since Art left, the show is often more about metaphysical things (spirits, ghosts, etc.), which I don't much care for. Anyway, last night was AWESOME. Ian Punnet interviewed a guy named Al Dobbs, who spoke about the mysterious disappearance of a musician from the 1970s named Jim Sullivan. The story was cool and kept my attention. I will agree with one caller that felt the show was a bit of a promo to boost the sales of the recent re-release of the re-mastered album by Jim Sullivan. Oh well, gotta make money somehow. Then, Ian opened the lines up to callers for a few hours and almost every caller had a story about mysterious disappearances. This is exactly the kind of mystery and intrigue I used to love listening to "The Art Bell Show" for. Not a mention of angels, and only one of ghosts.

Phil Hendrie Show ... Gone from KFI AM 640 ... Back on KFI AM 640 ... AWESOME!!!
I really hope this isn't a one-time gig only to fill an empty night. I used to listen every night to the Phil Hendrie Show on radio station KFI AM 640. Then, as so often happens in radio, he moved on. Most likely due to contract and money reasons. Anyway, this Saturday night, after a few years away from KFI, Phil Hendrie is back to do a special show. If you don't know about The Phil Hendry show, you just have to listen (and maybe several times to really get it). Without giving away how the show works, I will at least say that it tends to satire current news events. With the release and quick re-imprisonment of child molester dirtbag Lawrence Joseph Brown this week, he classically satired that whole judicial and correctional system debacle.
I did read this on Phil Hendrie's Twitter feed: "Minutes away from hitting the air at KFI Am 640, Los Angeles our newest affiliate... Every Saturday night on KFI 7-10pm"
