George Tsoukalos in the house.

I've seen that guy about a thousand times on TV and hear him another thousand times on the radio.

As for the ancient aliens theory, I don't necessarily buy into it, I wouldn't be shocked if there wasn't at least SOME truth to it.

[MMA_scientist]

Radio? Is he on George Noory or something? I know he was on Rogan's podcast, but I would rather shoot myself in the face than listen to that.

[SPX]

Yeah, he's on with George Noory on the regular. In fact, I think he's been on just within the past month to talk about Season 3 of Ancient Aliens.

I used to listen to Coast to Coast all the time when I was younger, back when I stayed up late. I remember when it was still Art Bell. Nothing better than delivering 1am pizzas and listening to Art Bell talk supernatural stuff. I remember once this guy called in and said he was an actual alien lifeform (or it may have been a demon, can't remember), and he was possessing this guy's body and called the show. Art took him at his word and treated it deadly serious... so good. That is the skill of these guys. This is all before this whole internet fad really took off, so it was even more awesome.

Weird that you mention that. It was actually while driving for Dominos that discovered Coast to Coast. I was like, What the fuck is this? and quickly grew to love it.

I'm actually a "Coast Insider" member now so I can download the shows from the past 90 days, so I rarely actually listen to it on the radio anymore, but I do still listen to it fairly regularly.

^^ Coast insider, that's serious business. Is that free? I am sitting at my desk all day 4 days a week. I listen to music, sometimes watch movies in the background, and jump on and off of IWS all day. I need something else to listen to.

LOL at www.papayatea.org (OP signature). Classic.

$6.99 a month. If you use it, it's worth it.

If you want to check out a similar-but-free show that has years worth of archives available, then check out The Paracast (www.theparacast.com).

EDIT: The Paracast is almost all UFOs by the way, so Coast is better for its variety.

I just love the whole vibe of coast to coast. When I first discovered it, i was probably 20... and it was on a fuzzy AM station. It seemed like it was some lunatic broadcasting from his garage unveiling the gov't secrets. I haven't listened to it in several years though. I will check that paracast thing out. In truth, I don't have an endless appetite for this stuff, I mostly just get amused by the crazies. So I can't justify paying for it, because I will grow tired of it in probably 2 or 3 weeks.

I have been meaning to ask you, did you ever go back to work? Or are you still living on the edge?

The Paracast is a different type of show, mostly in that the hosts are more willing to call their guests on their bullshit and they are of a bit more scientific bent. Also, there are no callers. It's two hosts and a guest.

As for Coast, I could probably send you some shit.

I have been meaning to ask you, did you ever go back to work? Or are you still living on the edge?

Never went back to work. Still writing for UMMA and the occasional other publication, and like I told you the other day I have my own JA account now. So that's what's getting me by. I'd like to have 4 sources of income, all operating at the same time, that each bring in $1000 a month or so.

I also wouldn't mind having a little part-time, 10-hour-per-week kind of job just cuz though . . . like something at the mall that's no stress, a little extra cash, and the opportunity to socialize just a bit (I do very little of that right now).

[MMA_scientist]

The callers are my favorite part of Coast to Coast. I can probably find some stuff online... it has been so long since I listened to it, it is all new shows to me. Speaking of new shows, I started watching "Weeds" last night. That show is pretty good, though I have only seen the first few episodes.

I have been taking time off from JA, I need to find someone to do the work for me.

Good for you, sticking it to the man. I was just curious, because you hadn't said anything and it has been a while now.

You see, that's like my LEAST favorite part and also the part that I usually skip.

In fact, I have started avoiding downloading the shows that deal with obvious woo-woo shit in favor of the shows where I feel like the guests are going to be credible and offer me some real information to consider.

I am aware that a lot of people like Weeds but I tried to watch it and just couldn't get into it. I did hear that Mark-Paul Gossalar made an appearance on an episode, though.





Zak Morris in the house.

Before I had my own account I wasn't overly concerned about putting 100% into it because I knew the shit wasn't mine and could disappear at any minute. Now I'm more motivated to really build it into something.

It's definitely been a life-saver, though. Without it I wouldn't have made it on my own because I don't make enough from writing to survive on.

It hasn't been easy, but I've been making it. I really need to go from surviving to thriving, though.

BOL!

Yes, he is to do it!

It is pure entertainment for me, I don't actually think there is any real information there to be considered. I like it for the lulz and it is fun to think about some of the stuff, but as far as actually considering it... I don't do that.

I am aware that a lot of people like Weeds but I tried to watch it and just couldn't get into it. I did hear that Mark-Paul Gossalar made an appearance on an episode, though.

Well, I just started it. It may be slightly more interesting to me because I actually live in the suburbs. BUt I am going to wait until the season is over to give an official recommendation.

Before I had my own account I wasn't overly concerned about putting 100% into it because I knew the shit wasn't mine and could disappear at any minute. Now I'm more motivated to really build it into something.

That is why I DON't spend more time on it... the account or site itself could disappear at any time. It is just straight time for money, there is no building it into anything. You answer, you get paid. That's it.

It's definitely been a life-saver, though. Without it I wouldn't have made it on my own because I don't make enough from writing to survive on.

That's true. I keep it around because I might need it someday. Even if I lost all income, lost my practice, and couldn't find a job, I could surivive pretty well just on JA. There is definitely some peace of mind there.

It hasn't been easy, but I've been making it. I really need to go from surviving to thriving, though.

Have you considered selling papaya tea?

I actually took a big hit myself trying to take over the world. I spent a bunch of money and I am now at the mercy of another attorney. Basically, with great reward comes great risk. I will get em next time.
