Coast-to-Coast AM Guide, Meaning , Facts, Information and Description
Coast to Coast AM is a late-night syndicated radio talk show dealing with current events particularly as they relate to paranormal issues.Coast to Coast was created by broadcaster Art Bell, who hosted the program from his residence in Nye County, Nevada. Bell has retired and returned several times, and the show is now carried by the Premiere Radio Network and is moderated by George Noory from Los Angeles. Bell hosts the program most Saturday and Sunday nights. The show is occasionally hosted by Barbara Simpson from San Francisco, California.
Coast to Coast mostly emphasizes very unusual stories and is full of personal stories. While program content varies, most nights are focused towards the paranormal, occult knowledge, ghosts, conspiracy theories, protoscience, UFOss, and pseudo-science. Guests are frequent, and individuals' stories and experiences are discussed in detail. After the interview, the host opens up public phone lines. Callers can ask the guest a specific question.
On Fridays, the guest does not stay on very long, and the host takes unrelated calls for the rest of the program. This is called "Open Lines".
The Halloween edition of Coast to Coast becomes "Ghost to Ghost" as callers call in with their ghost stories.
The New Year's Eve show usually entails listeners calling in with their predictions for the coming year and the host, almost always Art Bell, reading the predictions made the previous year and rating them with either a "ding" (for true) or a "bonk" (for not true).
Some recurring topics include government conspiracy, shadow people, remote viewing, predictions, and time travel. Other topics on Coast to Coast include UFOss and ghosts.
