Received Via Email --

Dear current and past Time Travelers,

We’d like to let you know our upcoming guest schedule this week on Midnight in the Desert.

Monday, Dec 5th - Garth Haslam - Spontaneous Human Combustion

Garth Haslam has always been a little too interested in things that shouldn't happen. In fact, he established his website, Anomalies – the Strange & Unexplained, in 1996 because he was a little too interested; he wanted to know where paranormal and strange stories come from, which ones might be real, and why people talk about these odd events, real or not.

Garth earned a degree in Anthropology – the study of human cultures -- at San Francisco State University, with a focus on folklore and religious studies, and has over thirty years of experience in the field of researching anomalies, mysteries, curiosities, and legends because, when you talk about the paranormal, all of these apply!

Tuesday, Dec 6th - Judika Illes - Witchcraft

Judika Illes fell in love with the magical arts as a child and has been studying them ever since. An independent scholar, her interests include tarot and other forms of divination, astrology, spell-casting, witchcraft, amulets, traditional healing and spirituality, mythology, and folklore.

She has worked as a professional card reader and spiritual counselor for over two decades.

He was part of the first Civilian Remote Viewing organizations after the government declassified the program. His organization was hired to investigate the unknown, including work with the FBI after 9/11 on counter terror issues, and with corporations on business issues.

Well that's a darn good question. When he handed it over to Heather almost a year ago, he more than hinted he'd be back for the random fill-in, which as it's turned out has only been a one night stand back in spring. Since then and even as much as these last some months here and there Heather's had to take time off for health and/or personal reasons, when she's not available listeners get repeats instead of Art.

Could be he's still shaken by the thought of the stalker, and/or still recovering from that summer pneumonia bout. Of course, whatever his reasons for not doing the show, he HAS had the time and energy to produce another Baby Bell!! -



Now, with all that as it is one might think he's not really set on coming back to the show... EXCEPT for the fact he's launched a defamation lawsuit against Michael Savage, which states "At present, Mr. BELL is strongly considering resumption of his radio broadcasting and journalism careers," and "[Savage's] Statement has harmed his professional reputation and is hindering his efforts to return to broadcasting and journalism." -

What does it all mean? Who knows? Nothing else, being pretty darn typical of what's come before to this point, It's almost as if Art's life simply can't NOT be one big ongoing instance of Deja Vu all over again! (Cue bumper music --)
