January 18, 2002: Bizarre Open Lines


Listen Later

Art Bell hosts a Friday night open lines session with an eclectic slate of topics for callers: interdimensional beings, vanishing stories, talking pets, levitation claims, and the question of what single miracle each listener would perform. He opens with news about Rush Limbaugh's seemingly miraculous recovery of 80 percent of his hearing just weeks after cochlear implant surgery, a result Art notes should be medically impossible so soon after the procedure.

The calls range widely. A state trooper from the 1960s recounts watching a stranded motorist walk toward a gas station during a blizzard and never arrive, his car abandoned and unclaimed to this day. A woman in Las Cruces describes seeing a cat walk along a steel I-beam, step off into midair, and simply vanish. Listeners attempt to coax their dogs into saying words on air with mixed results. Others propose miracles including healing the deaf, granting universal clarity, and lifting the oceans to reveal what lies beneath.

Art also reports on a BBC story about 9,500-year-old man-made structures found off the coast of India, a double-peaked solar cycle confirmed by NASA, and the discovery of flesh-eating pet lizards found feeding on their deceased owner in Delaware. He announces that Monday's replay will feature the complete saga of Mel Waters and his bottomless hole.
