Art Bell Remarries, Will Leave U.S.
Paranormal radio host Art Bell told listeners on Coast to Coast AM last night that he has remarried, given his pet cats away and will be leaving the country, according to the show's web site:
During the first hour, Art shared the story of how he met, fell in love with, and married a very special Filipino woman, Airyn Ruiz. Art also announced that he will be moving to the Philippines on April 29th to be with Airyn, but will continue doing weekend Coast programs from that location.
Art Bell's wife Ramona died in January at age 47 of circulatory failure resulting from an asthma attack.
Last night, Bell announced his new marriage on the air and shared photos of the wedding to Ruiz, 21, who met him over e-mail after Ramona's death.
Bell broadcasts his late-night talk show and an FM oldies station from his home in Pahrump, Nev., a desert town 50 miles from Las Vegas near Area 51. He left regular hosting duties behind on Coast to Coast in 2002 and now appears on weekends.
Some fans on an Art Bell online forum took the news personally:
What is even more shocking to me, is that he's leaving EVERYTHING behind ... the desert area, his home, his cats, the list is endless. ... I never would have thought a time would come when Art would go a day without his cats, no matter what. On his first show after Ramona died, he said that at one point, his cats were what kept him from suicide.
Update: I've posted the audio of Bell's announcement of the news on Coast to Coast.
Comments
Ramona looked like a sweetie in those early pictures.
Who was Art's wife before Ramona?
IMO if Art has a shred of decency in him, he will cancel Saturday's guest and have unscreened open lines for the entire show.
I did hear George comment once on the air, before Art made his wedding announcement. He said whatever is going on with Art's situation (may not be the exact words) we certainly do wish him well.
I thought that comment was rather strange at the moment but then when Art came on with his announcement it was quite clear. And at the time George did seem rather confuse as he made that statement.
Me Again
I just sent a message to Noory, and every email address on the C2C website expressing my disgust and demanding Art be removed.
My first response is:
Out of Office AutoReply: Art Bell's Behavior Has Disturbed a Lot of People

"Is it true that George Noory hasn't said anything about Art's marriage to his mail order bride? If he hasn't that says a whole helluva lot."
Absolutely true. He hasn't so much as said "Art got remarried" much less to congratulate him and welcome Airyn to the "family". Either he won't say it, or was told not to say it. Either way, it says enough that he remains silent.
And isn't it curious that this week, not a single caller has even mentioned Art's wedding/announcement? George says there are no coincidences. That, and a nice digital delay with silent "dump button" are what make "Open Lines" so real...
Send a multiple email to Noory, Ian, Lex, Lisa, and everybody else. Let those bastards know what you think.
Try an online anagram maker using the name Arthur Bell and you will see such things as, rather bull, art bull her, lethal burr, art rub hell, and for an idea of things to come... ball hurter. There are many more of course.

Prediction: Saturday is ART BELL's LAST SHOW.
Now even George sounds hollow. Poor guy, he inherited the aftermath of Art's mind blower revelations. Guests should call the show and b.s. Art like he did the audience and flip him in the trick bag. See how he likes it. That is if he doesn't retire again.
There is no way in this world that Art Bell is going to take the risk of not having a guest. Someone might hit a nerve. We should all call anyway and do whatever we have to do to bypass the screener.
This reminds me of the time I went to see David Lynch give a lecture. He sprung upon everyone that he was a follwer of Maharishi Yogi, and that he wanted 7 BILLION not MILLION dollars to 'create world peace.' I sat in the back laughing at him while he attempted to prove that 'meditation' would enhance your mind and intelligence with this kid hooked up to electrodes. It was like the scene in ghostbusters i kid you not. They couldn't get the damn thing to work on stage and he looked like a complete asshole. Meanwhile people who were his dedicated fans stood in awe. Needless to say I left early, convinced that David Lynch was out of his mind.
Art Bell is truly a pervert. I cannot believe he would not only marry, and we assume, have sex with a person YOUNGER THAN HIS OWN SON WHO WAS MOLESTED BY A 38 YEAR OLD MAN! This is f'd up man, real f'd up.
And leave George Noory out of it. He's not responsible for this mess. Art Bell needs to be confronted though. In his shallow way, he'll probably say that he doesn't need anyone's approval. Well, good thing he feels that way cuz he ain't gonna get it!
My suggestion would be to get him on the phone and realize that one sentence is likely all you'll get out - so choose your words carefully.
The FBI ought to investigate Bell this whole thing. Maybe an email to the FBI would be appropriate. This is definitely not a case of the media making Art Bell look like a child molestor to ruin his credibility, this is a case of Art Bell ruining his credibility through his own show.
Integrity of the Show: If Noory and the others can't see what's going on here, how do they expect us to listen to anything they say when they can't be reasoned with. Art Bell should be removed, and Noory should go on the air and say what needs to be said, its his show now, no matter if his "master" has become a perv or not, and he should have the sense to say someting decent about it, rather than act like George Bush's Press Seceratary.
One can only hope that this Saturday will be Art Bell's last show.
There is nothing he can say or do to redeem himself.
Hearing and reading about all this was bad enough but SEEING the pictures makes it so much worse.
What on Earth can a grizzly 60 year old white guy have in common with a 21 year old girl from the Philippines?
Money aside, what is SHE thinking and where is her family to tell her the colossal mistake she's making.

I agree with everyone abour George Noory it really bothered me that he has nothing to say about Art leaving the USA and getting married so soon.
I know George wants to be everyone's friend but it would be nice to here someone take a stand.
I am really troubled with Art dumping his cats.
He is definetely acting very impulsevily and thats not a good thing

I have no clear understanding of what happened. Can you please explain all this to me. I always listened to Art Bell when I would work nites in the ghetto but then I never get to hear it all between the shots being fired.
I never really thought Noory was as convincing as Bell as a UFO man. Theres just something about him trying to kiss everyones ass.
This is copy of email sent to Art Bell
Hello Art Bell,
I am sure that this email is just another of the hundreds you have been receiving. I am so offended by your lack of decency by announcing on the radio your marriage to your child bride. You have made your personal business the listeners business by telling us the details of your life so be aware of back lash you may receive.
I know that you suffered with the loss of Ramona, but you are not the only one in life that has suffered a loss of a loved one. I lost my husband 8 years ago in a plane crash and for months I went around in a daze. I can not even imagine dating someone weeks after my love passed much less getting married 3 months later. This is so unstable, as a nurse, I know that it takes time to grieve and doing what you did, you need to get some intensive counseling.
If you did this privately, that would be one matter. But to announce "your prize" to listeners is just disgusting and offensive. I will NEVER NEVER LISTEN TO YOU AGAIN. And I have been a long time listener, 15 years plus, and I do not want to hear your disgusting details of your child bride and how a 60 year old man is in love with his "soul mate" again. Your manhood is on display for all now. we know that you need a child to make you feel "whole".
SO OFFENSIVE,
FORMER LISTENER,
But what would Doctor Laura say?????

Art, we warned you to not say a word and to keep your mouth shut. Now look what you caused.
Lonely Jeff, I have a half-sister with bipolar disorder. They screw up their relationships, but they don't shut their emotions off like a lightswitch. My sister would ruin relationships and have to start her whole life over in dramatic fasion, but there is no antisocial aspect to her chaos. With Art Bell, it is always cold and final, just like a sociopath.
I am glad that George Noory has said nothing about Art Bell's "situation". Maybe saying nothing is really saying to us how he feels about this or he is just plain smart to keep his mouth shut on this!!!!!
I only have one thing to say and it is this: Forget the fact that his wife just died, forget the fact that he's 80 and she's 12, forget the fact that he's fleeing the country, forget the fact that he met her online, forget the fact that his son is older than his new wife, forget the fact that he's already retired like 6 times, forget the fact that he posts pictures of her on the internet wearing 'naughty and nice' slutware, and forget the fact that his bozo 900 pound couch potato Ham Radio buddy married her sister, and forget the fact that he's said in the past that Ramona is his soulmate, forget the fact that he shaved off his mustache, dyed his hair and changed his appearance, and forget the fact that he's bascially changing HIS WHOLE FREAKIN LIFE for this...how dare that bastard shoot his cats! My God Man! Comet! Yeti! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Art, I'm so upset by all this I plan to cancel my After Dark subscription. and tell my son to return the unsused portion of the prostate formula you sent him as a wedding gift. P.S. I hope this does not reflect my admiration of you, and my continual employment with Clearchannel Communications.
Your email is wonderful, LJP.

To the person with the reversals, they are very interesting. Back during the days before Bush disposed of DJO's, I wasn't sure what I thought about the reversal thing, so I bought one of the recorders to try for myself. I had recently married and gotten out of a very sick relationship with a narcissitic jerk who was cheating on me with just about everyone around me. After I married, he was suddenly completely interested in me and totally obsessed. He started calling me constantly, so I did reversals off his taped messages on my answering machine. He had this thing where he seeemed to know what every past girlfriend was still doing years later. I kept getting a very clear reversal. "Never Let them go". At the time, it creeped me out. Now 10 years later having had him stalk me for a decade, I am a complete believer in Reverse Speech. You couldn't have described what his M.O. was better the "never let them go". I also found out later, that he did the same thing to all the ex's that escaped a relationship with him and went on with their lives. He really didn't let any of us go. I'd like to hear more reversals on him. Keep taping the pervert.
"Ramona looked like a sweetie in those early pictures.
Who was Art's wife before Ramona?"
Sharon Tate
Poor Art. So misundertsood
Art, you make me sick. She's a poor young girl who is being used for some sadistic purposes. You and your fat ass ham radio friend are going to fry like a plucked chicken in a Kentucky hot oil bath, along with the blah blah blowhard Ed Dames, in the afterlife. Oh yeah, does Airyn have any younger sisters?
I knew it all along.
Ceez says this whole thing is a crock of shit and that's good enough for me.
It's kind of odd how some Art Bell fans on a certain message board are so happy for him. Happy that the man who lost his soul mate, several weeks later was able to find a new wife. 'The most beautiful woman I have ever seen', I believe is how he described her. These same people go on and on about George Noory taking Art's place. How he is no Art. How there can never be another Art. Well, correct me if I am wrong but number one, George came aboard when Art retired. Art made this choice. In business you replace people that leave, that is how it goes. But to lose your soul mate and then get married a couple of months later?? By the way, this girl was about 5 years old when Art and Ramona got married. Were they sponsering any children I wonder? Hmm
Hey Loney Jeff, your pathetic. Your trying to get sympathy for being a dumbshit and trying to blame that poor slant-eyed she-male for your own stupidity and insecurities. She probably noticed your balls and penis were smaller than hers and wanted to dump your pathetic ass like your first wife did. If it doesn't work out with Art and Airyn, you can put on a wig and become his "fourth". Now say 10 hail marys & try and get a backbone, and stop blaming others. Oh yeah, you should change your name from "lonely Jeff" to "Sadsack Jeff". Peace be with you dumbass!
Anybody with a personality like Ed Dames has got to be hiding something.
I think Yeti the cat or Dr. Evil is George Noory. He's working out his frustration and anger out on this board..heheheh.
Its pretty depressing hearing Art blow-off his wife after her death, and find a new "soul-mate" so soon. It also sucks having George Snoory be his apparent heir to the late-nite paranormal throne. Most(at least 90%) of the time Snoory George doesn't live up to helm. I just wish there was someone out there that has the "gift of gab" of Art(without the pervness)and the sincerity of Snoory George(without the dullness). Anyone have any recommendations?
Re: Me agains comment about George's cryptic remarks on-air:
[quote]I did hear George comment once on the air, before Art made his wedding announcement. He said whatever is going on with Art's situation (may not be the exact words) we certainly do wish him well. [/quote]
I have been reading the C2C forums since the marriage, and I need to point out something that George Noory posted on the fantastic forum msg board where he posts sometimes. I thought WTF when I read it. Does it strike anybody else as odd? Especially combined with the remarks above. Take in consideration, this was in the live discussion thread on George's first night back after Ramona's death:
"I care deeply for you FF members....but there is something far more serious here...please understand that what is going on is much deeper ...and that is now our concern."
See for yourself: www.fantasticforum.com
There are a lot of posters here and I hope EVERY ONE OF THEM HAS E-MAILED
COAST TO COAST and told them to get Art off the air!!!
Yes, I've sent mine in and you should too. But, I have a feeling Art would do the freakin show WITHOUT being paid, he's such an idiot. The producers of the show can't beat THAT price, so will probably continue to have him on. UGH!!
If we are so unfortunate, as to still have Art on the show, my suggestion is to not listen when he is on and continue to e-mail the producers of that fact and to demand he be kicked off. Radio, like TV, is ALL about the ratings.
I don't think the producers of the show really care WHY we are listening, so long as we listen and their sponsors get the ratings high. Remember this show is about advertising
and selling products. The right thing to do if we really want Art off the air, is to not listen, and not call in. It would also be helpful if we e-mailed the sponsors and told them we
won't buy any of their products until he is off the air.
I think Art SHOULD move to the Philippines because we sure don't need more of his kind here! I think he should set up a life for himself there, and NOT come back! Let the old
age homes there, take care of his ass. They are crowded enough here as it is.
Gee, most everyone I've heard about who live in trailers, do Ham radio and marry very young Asian women are called WHITE TRASH! I say, if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck,
and sounds like a duck......IT'S A FREAKIN DUCK! Art fits the bill and is therefore, WHITE TRASH!!!! He needs to get the WHITE TRASH AWARD!
Any takers on who's going to present it to him?????
Dear C2C fans. Sylvia Browne contacted me the other day and asked me console Art because all of the negativity he's been receiving. However, I'm still pissed at the last prediction she made with the coal mines and I refuse to ESP her. So I ESP'd John Edwards and asked him to tell Art to hang in there and that you can't make lumpia,filipino eggrolls, without skinning a few cats, sorry YETI THE CAT. What does that mean? Hick if I know. I'm just a 100year old delusional horny spirit who got to bang a big tittied former playboy hussy. YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
I'll go, Sickaya, and I'll nail it to his head.
George should have a radio program on human trafficing. He should wait a least a month and a half to air it though.
I love you people!
I hope some UFO's hatch opens and little green men drag Art Bell to their planet.
I wonder if John Titor has taken off in his time machine yet to return to the future. I would like to ask him how all this plays out.
I have no respect for this radio host anymore ,wish they wouldnt have him hosting the coast to coast show ,its like hes married his daugther are something ,and should a very short short time after death of his wife ,hes a bum ,he should be ashamed for ever what he as done ,he can go to hell where he most likely will go
Anyone out there have asthma? Don't you always know which meds to take to get you through an attack and when it's time to go to the hospital?
I'm beginning to think Art knew that She devil before Ramona passed away. That disgusts me.
From the Coast to Coast Archive
Predictions for 2006 - Part II
Art Bell continued with a second night of callers' predictions for 2006 during his annual New Year's Eve Prediction Show. The following is a small sampling of the forecasts Coast listeners made for the coming year:
Art and Ramona Bell will adopt a 14-year-old Native American boy.
Finally, a prediction that comes close to reality... except for the Native American boy part, and the part about dear Ramona... oh hell, it is still closer to the truth than 99% of Art's prognostications...
Perhaps Ramona was the *real* creator of Coast... she met Art at the Las Vegas radio station where they worked together, and shortly thereafter, Coast to Coast went from being a regular call-in news and discussion show to what we know today... was that Ramona's influence on Art? She ran the station in Pahrump... she was a radio professional herself...
They say behind every great man there is an even greater woman...
I've read most of the posts on this site. I sense that many people feel betrayed or used by Art in some way. They felt his loss while he was out cavorting. I sense that many people think he harmed Ramona at the end. I doubt that happened. Grief is a difficult comrade. It can lead one to do extreme things if it is not met head on. And that is what we see here: extremes. Everything in Art's life since Ramona's passing are on the fringe. His actions make no sense to us when we use reason. Reason wasn't the guide. More likely, the guide was loneliness, which has no direction. I think the strangest extreme is moving from a home with land in the desert to a high-rise tower in the midst of 20 million people. I don't think falling in love immediately after the death of a loved one is as strange as most think it is. I saw it happen up close about 35 years ago when one of my college roommates boyfriend died. His girlfriend and his brother got together at the funeral. I learned then that grief can be stranger than fiction. Most of us have come to care for Art over many years. I think he has to find his way. And if that takes walking the fringe, the steps must be his alone.
By the way, this girl was about 5 years old when Art and Ramona got married. Were they sponsering any children I wonder? Hmm
--
wow, interesting question. I sponsor kids and I know if you want to visit them you can. With his resources, he could have and he could have exanged addresses, his phone #, private email ect. I know the Philipines is sponsored by the group I sponsor with. That would really be sad. Taking advantage of a girl in poverty and tainting some organization that is trying to save children.
Dear Coast to Coast AM,
I have been a listener for many years. Through thick and thin. Yours and mine. I was hurt, I was sickened, I was horrified last Saturday by Art's bragging (and there is no way around it, it was bragging) about his new conquest ("I'm the luckiest man in the world"), while the listeners, completely unprepared for this, were still feeling Ramona's loss. As I have control over it, I plan to never hear the man's voice again.
Thank you for your time,

that is a really good question. That would be even more disgusting if he took advantage of a child in poverty and tainted an organization designed to save children. He had the resources to actually meet a child he sponsored, so he could have exhanged contact info at that point. I don't know how close the groups monitor visitations. That would be really sick
Rhonda, Don't tell me, you'd leave your kids for a sleepover with Michael Jackson?
By the looks of those pics you posted"yeti that cat", your going to have some company over here. Poor dumb animals. Look at them. The pooches look so depressed, they're about to cry. They're on farm deathrow, and they all know it. Oh well, I could use a couple of pet dogs, I'll make sure Colonal Sanders will find a good home for the poultry.

Dearest "RHONDA", I just read your post and I was really blown away by our similiar views on life. I think we should definitely get together some time. Unfortunately though, I'm a little preoccupied right now, but as soon as I'm free I'll look you up.Oh, and if you have another available girlfriend, my buddy named O.J. is on the rebound after he beat, um, I mean broke up with recently. Hope to hear from you soon.
Art must have showed Airyn how to use the quickening to put that wedding together in one week. I thought time was slower in the tropics.
Dear Rhonda,
Thank you for understanding. I lost my wife several years ago and continue to behave outrageously.
If you have 30 million dollars, I would love to meet you. Do you like Italian food and dark streets?

I would rather give people the benefit of the doubt than be so certain of accusing them, whom I do not know, of anything. It is disturbing to see the intensity of certainty in what can only be called suspicion in so many posts on this site.

No. We just have a life and a job and can't be here 24/7.

If I recall correctly, the Radio Ham sandwich friend of Art's is the one who recommended that Art and Ramona take the vacation which led to her death. If you CTC subscribers listen back to his return night describing Ramona's death you will hear it. That is what he claimed. Looking back, I feel even more disturbed about this whole thing. I have canceled my streamlink subscription to CTCAM the night Art bragged about his new love/wife.
Is it true that he is having his cats put down? Geesh. He's a phony and a pathetic man.
"Dear Rhonda,

hey, no murder perverts allowed in this thread!
OMG that Radio friend of Arts is HUGE!!! No wonder he had to leave the country to find a bride no female in the western hemisphere would get in the bed with his huge smelly ass..God he has NO CHIN!!!
Oh Art you ARE just the ladys man..I mean Little Girls man.....
Someone will eventually get on the air and say that they are really surprised by Art and that they hope he gets bird flu and dies...
I don't know shit but I know 5 things:
1) This thread is getting so long my desert dial-up connection won't load it anymore....soon
2) Art Bell is not my hero anymore
3) I'm incredible sad
4) The price of gas really reflects how much gas there really is.
5) That stripper was raped.

Incinerating I agree. I was going to post that last night...I also see chem-trails in the sky of some of those pictures. I think all these things make that ham guy eat. I think he needs some HGH..and everything will be okay.
I am afraid to ask, but what is HGH?
Art, if you want us to love you again...confess.
...or share her with us!
HGH = Human Growth Hormone
You all needs it...trust me
HGH is Human Growth Hormone, Holly.
For arts new brother in law It means...Ham Guzzling Homo
And I am sure Art or someone at the park had something called a cell phone. With one of those little contraptions, he could have had a freaking lifeflight helicopter out to rescue her, or an ambulance. I'm sure Art has heard of a cell phone before. I know he doesn't know much about electronics, but just a thought....

Robert Blake testified at his trial that he didn't use any of the three cell phones in the car in which he found his wife shot in the head, because he thinks "cell phones are rude".

A 60 year old widow just remarried to a 21 year old filipo girl 3 months after the death of his wife. I wonder how long it takes to put together a wedding in the Filipines. Seems like Art might have to fill out some paperwork. I'm sure he didn't find a place to live right off the bat. So basically as I see it, his period of mouring for his wife had to have been about 24 hrs or less, till he found the next love of his life a desperate, child-woman who will now have to prostitute herself to a stinky old geezer. Yes, Rhonda I think giving him the benefit of the doubt is a brilliant plan on your part. You don't happen to be married to a death row inmate are you?
Thank you, MacDonald's, Sierra, and UBL.
Rhonda, no disrespect intended, but how would you feel (god forbid} if you died and your husband or significant other got remarried after 3 months after your death, and then on national radio, telling everyone his young bride is a hot piece of ass & the most beautiful thing he has ever seen. Or what if your son, daughter, relative, or close friend went through the same thing, wouldn't you be pisst? Get real and step off that high horse of yours and admit it looks extremely trippy what Art has done. Also, if this was anybody else,you'd think the guy was slime.
Everytime I run into George, he has two beautiful women on his arms.
OMG I heard Phil say that on the show a week or so ago!!!
Scarlett, I believe they did do an autopsy and found it was circulatory failure during an asthma attack.
"And I am sure Art or someone at the park had something called a cell phone."
You people! PLEASE! GET A LIFE! You want me, a PHD, to believe that ART BELL, an electronic genius, a man with every electronic gadget known to man (and the money to pay for it) would own, much less know how to operate a device as complicated as a cell phone?
I'm sure there was a payphone in that town.
Yeah....Thats what we all tell our Doctors to get some pain meds....The "Oh my back hurts" line...Maybe the Pain meds are clouding his judgment.

Don't expect George to comment on Art's disgusting new marriage. George doesn't have the gonads to stand up to Art. George is a buttkisser to 99.9% of his guests and callers.
C2C surprise mystery guess:
Columbo
Rhonda, I think you and lonely-sadsack Jeff should get together. You can get him pregnant, and both of you can be a "topic" as Art broadcasts live from Manilla.By the way I can use your help with the D.A..He's still bugging me about turning over all the files.
opps I spelled myh name wrong..lol
Who is Ross Mitchel?
He twisted the dial and snorted a line and started listening to C2C.God george sounds star struck by some has been ZZTop guy..How sda..LMAO
ZZTOP: "How..how..how...how..how...ho
w"
...did Art kill her
Man, I'm a big zz top fan, but come on this is about paranormal as the positive thinking guy show!
Does anyone but George give a rats ass about what this dude has to say??
Art claims to be so honest. (I used to belive him, but not anymore.) Let's see if he mentions all the negative feedback he's getting for marrying his daughter. I mean, his child bride.
Is it just me, or is this the most boring C2C show I have ever heard?
Do you think Art told Airyn about his bad back? Maybe that's why she agreed to marry him.
Wow, this is cool old sixties stuff...we could talk about this crap all night! Too bad Airyn wasn't even born in the 60's or the 70's.
F*ck, I have boogers older than her.
I've turned on Nancy Grace, but this guy is better than the happy numbers lady. MOO
ZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Top. Sheesh. What's next? An interview with a mime?
Hey! This young whipper snapper from that hillbilly rock band ZZ TOP sounds more interesting than that kiss ass George. Darn, I wish I met with him first, I would have hired him just for that voice.
I wish Jimi Hendrix was Sylvia's guide, rather than Francine.
George is just using his Semi celebrity status to get an autograph from this old zztop dude!...This show is going down the tubes they must all be on drugs!!!
Somebody call and ask the ZZ Top guy if he thinks Art murdered Ramona.
LMAO!!!!!
Tomorrow's open lines. Do you think they will have a delay?
Man, george is really just preppig himself for an even bigger gig than C2C. He's looking to be the next star host for QVC network. But, he'll never get it because his eyes are always red like he took a bong rip.
They prob will Holly...Sponsor a child everyone Art has!!!Just look for the yellow flashing banner while billy is still in the studio
Hey guys don't you know that each call has 7 seconds delay before it hits the air?
I know how they got the name!
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz top
Les Pauls are fun to pound on
..so is Airyn
I sent Whitley Stribner an e-mail telling him of my disappointment with Art and how inappropriate it was for him to marry so soon after the death of Ramona. He wrote back that Art has been going through a very hard time after his wife's death and he and Ann
wished him the best and I shouldn't judge. He even give me chapter and verse from the Bible!!!! I wrote back that I had a right to judge since Art had put his whole life out to the public. And, that I didn't believe in his God OR the Bible.
I also wrote an e-mail to George Noory and he simply replied, "Thanks for your
comments". That was probably an automated response, and at least not one that pissed me off more.
Bottom line, everyone associated with Art is trying to save their asses. They know damned good and well that Art marrying the way he did, to whom he did and so soon after Ramona's death was wrong. But they are doing the sugar coated thing, and trying to
make it sound like Art was so hurt, he had to do something to ease his grief. That's just Bull Shit!
I think Art will be able to get away with this and still do the show as before, but I won't be listening. If I hear him mention how much in love he is, or how his new bride is the most
beautiful woman he has ever seen, one more time, I'll probably throw my radio through the window!!! Since it cost me so much, as it's a Sangean radio, I don't think I'll take the
chance of that happening.
The only thing we can do folks is not listen and swamp all of them with e-mails.
How many do you think you can send before Saturday's show? Hummmmmm???
Let's go get'm!!!!! Send a couple to everybody connected with the show, every day for a week!!!!
LOL Dr Evil
How pathetic. All the callers are "safe" friends of George or "Billy". Now you know there's a coverup going on.
This show is Gay.
There's just something not right about this. Art had to know that Ham Hocks was involved with a woman in the Philippines. How did HH meet his bride? Through the online ads? Was he paying a service? Why would HH have her sister email Art? It makes no sense. Art was in mourning.
I have sent email out earlier to over 10 people ..And I am going to do it tomorrow too.
You are prob right Holly I would almost bet HH was using a paid dating service..
Okay, I'm going to bed. This is BS. I think this is pre-taped. Soon they try to sell Art's Firebird during the break.
"Hi George, you lame second banana. Just wondering. Did your guest say "Eliminator" or "Eliminate Her"? Feeling a bit guilty and nervous tonight..."
I think George is avoiding the Art thing cuz he dont even want to get people started calling in about it ..then he would be forced to address the issue.

Great!!! I love it.
How about signing Jon's petition? I think it's a great idea too.
I signed it!
I signed it!
damn..i made it thru the 1st hour!
Dad! what the heck are you doing? your embarassing me.That guy from ZZTop is practically laughing at you and your drooling all over him!Next time put someone whose more in your league, like the numbers lady.
Payne, you have a good point. The nation is in frightful shape. To whom Art Bell is sticking it is small potatoes.
However, there remains a tremendous and complicated feeling of betrayal. We've been with Art through thick and thin, and we've certainly been asked to suspend our disbelief. But asking us to believe the latest turn of events is insulting. A forty-year age difference is capable of turning anyone's stomach. This goes way beyond trophy wife. If these exploits were of any other public figure, Art would probably be asking our opinion. What if in Art's grief, he instead joined a fundamentalist cult and started to brag about its benefits? I think there'd still be "crying and gnashing of teeth." As far as "insults and denigration," what exactly is Art doing to his audience if not insulting us?
For some inexplicable reason, we expect more from Art than a tired cliche. A cliche with a twist, no less. And the sad part is that Art didn't say, "Well, everyone, the truth is that I can't be a day without an adoring female, and I have an opportunity for that female to be a malleable college-aged girl from a disenfranchised country whom I can rob of precious youth. Even as ridiculous, misguided and smacking of ulterior motive as this opportunity might be, my ego, loneliness, libido and fear of abandonment need me to take it. Please understand." At least then there'd be a slim chance that Art's honesty might make it a tad less disgusting. After all, you can't blame a guy for trying.
Spite or jealousy? If it were only that simple. Our stomachs are turning too much already to stomach the idea of competing over anyone for Art Bell, much less a silly younger woman. I think many of the women in Art's audience (menopausal or otherwise) are collectively relieved that we most definitely do not have a chance with Art Bell. Remember, too, that generally speaking, women were much more forgiving then men of Clinton's Monica Moments, but I doubt they would have been if Bill had giddily recounted how much in love he was with Monica and the life he was planning with her. At least amongst the denials, Clinton had the decorum to admit it was purely physical. Bill isn't the only one who couldn't keep it in his pants at a most critical juncture.
I never doubted Art's love and utmost respect for Ramona. No, it's Art's reckless and greedy disregard of customary etiquette--or even of lip service--towards the memory of his very recently departed wife. It's Art promoting a yearning for, and taking advantage of, a post-pubescent after what happened to his own son. It's Art's arrogant expectation that we'll accept his foolishness by fooling ourselves right along with him ... simply because he's Art.
Art's mixture of giddiness, pining school boy, vulnerability, tenth-grade-locker-room boasting, self-delusion and defiance was in such poor and pathetic taste the other night, it left many of us unsettled. Not likely forgotten, either, unfortunately. Makes Brad and Angelina look downright classy.
Sally | 2006-04-19 11:59 PM | link
Art is innocent and Saddam had WMD and was behind 911!
damn i just took a big crap
Has anyone Fast-Blasted George about Art?
damn i just took a big crap
LMAO!!!!! Me too we must have a Soul..I mean Bowl connection...
I did I asked why he has not said anything about Arts news...
Great post, Sally.
There are also very interesting comments like the one above from Sally at the other recent Workbench page on Art Bell at
www.cadenhead.org
This story is one of those potboilers that if you saw in a movie or read in a book, you wouldn't believe.
URGENT!!!!!!!George I remote viewed the audience and 99.999% are asleep. The only ones that are listening are the ones you paid to call. I'll "flashblast" Art tell him its code red!
I agree, Sally's post is fantastic.
Man why am I stuck on george? He's such a pussy.
Thanks, Dale, I didn't even know that was there.
Good night, all.
Oops, the page didn't show up. Sorry. It's the page that describes Ramona's death with a photo of Art and Ramona. It's interesting because the messages start out as condolences and suddenly become angry.
It's
workbench/news/2842/art-bells-
wife-dies-unexpectedly
But I don't know how to get there from here.
Just Fast Blasted Coast to Coast about Art. Told George he would bring down the show mentioning Art.
Face it, he's not ever going to say anything negative about him because he's such a wimp. I'd rather he, nor anyone on the show, would ever speak of him!
I just want the nut case (Art) to go far, far away. Never to be heard of again.
Please help me. I'm remote viewing all of you at this minute, I'm trying to escape and tell everyone my true feelings about Arts child-bride wedding, and to come out of the closet.Concentrate all of you, help me to escape!
"But I don't know how to get there from here.
DALE B. | 2006-04-21 02:22 AM |"
Go to the top of this page and click on underlined "died in January" link in the third paragraph.
god he is trying to hock his book..PUKE Gag VOMIT!
Thank you, Seti. I'm new and when I found there were two different pages of similar comments, I wanted to show you an example of what's over there with that copy of Sally's message, but all messages are passionate and have good points. How can we bring the two pages together? Dale
George, you suck you will never be welcomed at my workplace. The holy water will probably burn your hand, like mine , for being a bigger wimp than lonely -sadsack Jeff and Rhonda,but Rhonda's a girl so I forgive her. George say ten hail marys and pray for some balls.
You welcome, Dale B.
But to bring the two pages together has to be done by the owner of this website.
very good comment longtime!
QUESTIONS:
I didn't hear that particular show when Art described Ramona dying or said he was suicidal. Did he really? Did he describe how Ramona was feeling that night? Were they in the RV or a hotel room? Was it only one show? Does anyone remember all that he said that night? THANK YOU.
Visitor @ 3:13 AM, I'm sorry for your loss. Sleep apnea is lethal and under-diagnosed.
Art's reaction (or non-reaction, more accurately) to soulmate no. 1's medical emergency and subsequent death would merit an investigation if it had involved anybody else.
Bell's quasi-celebrity status and financial resources no doubt gave him the means to escape any legal ramifications for conduct which even an impartial observer might describe as neglect AT BEST.
Of course I and many other people who are not necessarily deranged tinhat-wearers suspect it is rather more than neglect; the result is the same in any case. Soulmate no. 1 dies, Art receives narcissistic supply in the form of 20,000+ condoling emails from grieving fans; soulmate no. 2 appears virtually overnight, Art gets to show off his new barely legal piece of ass to a stunned and bewildered audience while inveterate creeps like Ed Dames phone in and congratulate Art on his new acquisition.
Art's ability to move on with such unseemly alacrity to a new relationship (which one suspects was arranged and waiting in the wings before his wife's tragic demise) indicates he's either the shallowest, most immature 60-year-old man ever or he suffers from a serious personality disorder. Period. How ANYbody could be so clueless and tasteless to congratulate this old sleazebag on his sordid nuptials is beyond my comprehension.
Art Bell's explanations/rationalizations to date for his reckless and altogether pathetic conduct ("That's just me, folks! I've always done this!") and blatant bragging ("Have you seen the pictures?" Uh, yeah, we have, and that chick looks like she's barely pubescent) nauseate me. If I'm going to continue listening to Coast to Coast I'll need a new Rx for an anti-emetic.
Airyn: Oh Art! I so tired and want sleep.
Art: Come oooon, baby. It will be hard soon.
Airyn: You say that many hour ago!
Art: Well, you enjoyed those hours, now didn't you?
Airyn: Maybe, but now I ery tired.
Art: Ok....take a nap and I'll wake you up with a nice surprise in about an hour.
Airyn: Oh goodie! You gona buy me that new red car!
Art: Maybe, after you exercise your jaws some more. I didn't pay your parents $25,000 dollars so you could sleep!
What a bunch of pathetic loosers.
Jealousy has gotten the best of people who are washed-up radio hosts, mediocre consultants, and drunks with a microphone...
Pathetic...
Too bad you aren't as satisfied with your life and income as Art is - see that big, happy, smile on his face? Yup - the old guy is gettin' some. You pathetic loosers, on the other hand, are pounding your meat with one hand and operating your PTT with the other. Heh... That's pretty funny (sad, true, but somehow funny!)
One day you should try going an entire 24-hour period without referring to Art. Clearly, you are incapable of doing so - you are obsessed with Art, and angry at his success and happiness.
Geat a freakin' life, loosers. Yeah, that includes you, Billy - and Steve, too.
Bob, Bob, Bob!!!! You are the loser because you are reading all these post!!!
If YOU were getting some, you'd not be on the computer, but in bed with your sweetie!
Maybe YOU should take your own advice, HUH?
Hey Bozo Bob,
Art's fans have never been jealous of his fame or fortune, not that he has that much of either. Ask anyone on the street who Art Bell is and 95% of them can't tell you. Some 45% may have heard of him vaguely, but that's all they know. A name without a face.
Now, Donald Trump is wealthy and worth being jealous over. His women are gorgeous and not cheap mail order brides. But you see, THEY are intelligent women and don't want to be treated like maids, so wouldn't look twice at Art Bell.
Oh yea baby! I really, really am jealous of someone who lives in the dessert on property that probably cost a couple thousand dollars, in a trailer that cost maybe $40,000 when he
bought it 15 years ago! Oh what wealth!!!!
If he really had any money or honor, he'd be having dinner with old Donald and old Donald would be introducing him to some nice looking women. Not the old Ham Radio Guy, telling him to get on the Internet and have cheap on line sex with a twenty something
Philippine prostitute, who looks so-so.
And excuse me? "At least he's getting some"? You think YOU can't get the same thing???? Anyone can get one of these mail order brides! That's what's so sick about it,dude!!!! What are you, 12 years old????
AIr Head..LOL and Sam You are correct!
Does anyone have a copy of that audio of the night Bell anounced Ramona's death? Would like to relisten to it for clues. I remember there were a lot of questionable things said. Could someone please upload it to a service like mytempdir.com and post the link please? It's a free service.
Ross Mitchell is the announcer that comes over the bumper music - they say Phil Hendrie spoofs him a lot. I would say something is fishy with Art Bell - but I wouldn't want to end up like David John Oates (reverse speech guy) and get sued for $60 million. You just don't challenge the big chip stack at the table, or maybe I'm just being like Noory...
Filipina Relationships and Marriages
A discussion forum and source of free advice for men in relationships or marriages to Filipinas.

Whitley Stribner, Stop trying to make excuses for Art by quoting scripture What do you think, we are all a bunch of senile sheeple? Where do you draw the line? Art had a national radio broadcast and we don't want to listen to or be informed by sefish decievers or we will all be crazy! Thank God there are still people left who will question character and decency. If you act that stupid, somebody is going to make fun of you and I don't blame them!
C'mon folks, give Art a break. What self-respecting American woman would give such a peculiar old coot the time of day? Art was lonely and realized that the only way to get a female would be to find one in a culture where girls are raised to revere and subjugate themselves to American men of means. What's sad is Art's lack of honesty with his audience and with himself. How refreshing it would have been if Art had just come out and said, "I got laid! And by a girl young enough to be my granddaughter!" His giddiness last night and his constant referrals to her photos (in her Naughty and Nice tee-shirt) were sickening and sad. Saying over and over again that this kid "is the most beautiful woman I've ever seen" when his wife has been gone three months? It's poontang, pure and simple. Beyond that, delusion. What's the difference, really, in Art going after a post-teen and what happened to Art's son years back? Men crave youth, but not all men are fool enough to go after youth.
If the "marriage" lasts, Art will be importing the girl in a year or so. I'm sure the only thing holding that back is INS quotas.
Once she gets here and gains citizenship, it'll be goodbye Art.
If it doesn't last, he'll be on site to find a comparable replacement in no time - In a city of 10 million, there must be ten thousand like her to choose from.
I will be listening to the first hour of Art on Saturday night on 4/23 for the final time. I am curious to see if he has any second thoughts about this hasty decision and the mostly bad reaction it has prompted from ssssssoo many listeners. Can we hope that he will retire AGAIN and this time mean it.
Obnoxious, unattractive men gravitate to desperate foreign women because American women won't have them. Small wonder.
Has anyone read or heard ONE WORD about Art Bell and his child bride in the mainstream media this week?
I guess Art Bell is not nearly as famous or important as he thinks he is.
Not a word, not even the tabloids who are fixated on aliens, conspiracy theories and celebs who do, well... anything really. What Art has done should have merited special editions! But thus far, nothing...

The official bb at the Coast to Coast site has had to delete threads.
Coast Riders,
I have been asked by Premiere Radio to delete comments/threads that overstep the boundaries of our Terms & Conditions-- in this case related to some people's reactions to Art Bell's marriage. Specifically, baseless comments accusing him of, or implying criminal activity on his part, as well as other extremely crude remarks.
I realize emotions are running high on this issue, but if you feel the need to make these kind of unwarranted speculations, the official Coast to Coast forum is not the place to do it.
Thanks for your understanding in this manner.
I'll give it to Lex. Sounds like he only did it because he had too.
I'll bet George announces at the beginning of tonight's show that he will not take any calls concerning Art's marriage.
"I'll bet George announces at the beginning of tonight's show that he will not take any calls concerning Art's marriage."
Folks, I know Art's announcement has many of you suprised, upset, worried about Art... let me tell you, Art is a grown man and his private life is really nobody's business but his. I'm sure I speak for everyone in the Coast family when I say we wish him well, in his new marriage, his move... he's the reason this program exists. Without him, I'd still be living under a bridge and working in the circus. So please, let's honor his privacy and not spend time dwelling on it tonight... for his sake, for the sake of my career, for my plant, Bertha (who's eight feet tall now and asking me to feed her) Now, onto Open Lines! First up, O.J. from L.A.!
I noticed that Art "I Like 'Em Young" Bell has guests both Saturday and Sunday.
In the main, the comments on this site impute such negative characterizations and motives to Art Bell. They get worse and build as you read on and on. In toto, people have been propelled in their suspicions and a kind of group think has evolved. If one differs from the group, one gets mocked. Herd mentality is the sense that comes to me. I guess it feels good if everyone thinks like you do. I don't. I won't. I am not a policeman, I don't do investigations, I am not a remote viewer, and I do not have inside information. What occurs to me is the rapidity at which people who once thought highly of Art turn on him, based on things they suspect but do not know and bolstered by others similarly minded. This tide gets stronger and stronger. What kind of friends would most people on this site really be to others is what is troubling to me.
Rhonda, I think you might be making more of this than what it is. We are fans of a radio show. This is not a personal relationship. We are reacting to the actions of a public figure. When a public figure does something stupid, people complain. Look at the response to Bill Clinton's blow job.
Rhonda, please look below the surface of this thread. The people posting here are really sufferring over this.
I agree with holly golightly. I think people feel a bit betrayed about his qiuck remarriage. I was actually worried about him after Ramona died. Yet two weeks after her death, he is in correspondence with Airyn, aided by a friend who was trying to set him up. (By the way, when someone suffers a tragedy, I am not attempting to set them up with a 20 year old. The ham guy sounds like a loon.)
I think he is rebounding. His "look at her picture" made me ill (particularly urging a blind guy to do it). There was very little in his comments about her other than that she is nice and young. It was all about, "Look who I have bagged."
Then he dedicates a song to Airyn that he dedicated a month or so ago to Ramona.
He slipped up in his broadcast about Ramona's death. He said something about what has happened, and quickly changed it to what could happen (someone else pointed this out).
I truly hope that this works out for him. I think Ramona is impossible to replace, and even though he says that Airyn is 65 years old in a 20 year old body, I doubt that she has the depth, experience and character that Ramona had. Like many people here, though, I don't think he has thought this through. Sheesh. After you get out of bed, you still have to talk to them. I fear he will be disappointed.
You raise a good point, Laurie. You know, Airyn has a right to her young adulthood. She shouldn't be expected to be 65 in a 20-something body. She has the right to experience all the silliness we all experience at her age. She has a right to make bad decisions, just like we all did. She has the right to find out who she chooses to be in this world without being derailed by some 60-year-old horndog with a few bucks in his wallet. I can see an age difference in relationships - say, ten years one way or the other - but this one is disgusting. It's just plain wrong.
What occurs to me is the rapidity at which people who once thought highly of Art turn on him, based on things they suspect but do not know....
Rhonda | 2006-04-21 11:11 AM | link
I believe that people are turning based on what they DO know, i.e. Art's inappropriate statement on the radio that this "twenty something" woman is "the most beautiful woman I have ever seen" (a direct slap in the face to his recently deceased wife) and choosing to post a photo of her in a t-shirt that says "naughty but nice". "I am so in love and so is she". The fact that listeners were still sending letters of condolence and praying for Art, while he was in the Philippines cavorting with Ham Hocks hasn't helped anyone's mood. IMO
I, frankly, don't believe Art's story of how/when he and Airyn met. I think the man is a con on all levels.
I PREDICT:
This bogus marriage will be history within 3 months.
The show will take a kill shot with this stupid move to the PI condo.
Art Bell is through in talk radio.
The integrity of his FRIENDS from Hoagland to Strieber is forever put in question.
At first his comment about Airyn being the most beautiful woman he has ever seen bothered me. But, let's for a moment assume this is all on the up and up and happened just like Art said. They met online, fell in love, whatever. Imagine being half a world away and hearing your new husband say "and she's the second most beautiful woman I have ever seen" It may go over better with his radio audience, but not so well with Airyn and family.
Lets start placing our bets on how long this love affair will last. There is a big run on vibrators now in Manilla.
While the rest of the crew in LA and the BAT cave are in place and are waiting for a time traveler to call, they heard from Charlie Onehunglow, but he had no up to date information. Sylvia and Sean and Dames and the rest of the futurist are buying wedding gifts fron the local vibrator hot shop.
