Art Bell dies at 72 Coast to Coast AM Founder will be missed by millions Longtime radio host Art Bell died Friday at his Pahrump home, the Nye County Sheriff’s Office announced. He was 72.
Bell’s paranormal-themed show, “Coast to Coast AM,” was syndicated on about 500 North American stations in the 1990s before he left the nightly show in 2002. He broadcast the show from Pahrump’s KNYE 95.1 FM, a station he founded.
Bell retired several times in his career, which included a short-lived show on SiriusXM satellite radio in 2013.
Returning to terrestrial radio afterward was not a difficult decision, he told the Pahrump Valley Times in August 2013.
“That’s easy, because I love it,” he said at the time. “It’s my life, and that’s all I have ever done. I went through a lot of family problems, so that interrupted things, and I was overseas for four years, and that certainly interrupted things. I went back into radio because I love it.”

Love hearing George Carlin taking about himself hoping for the end of the world as we know it. Too damn funny.

You will never be as happy as Art was in that photo.
Jacob Murphy
Coast to Coast pushed him out and now they will continue to push the narrative that they lost one of their own corporate shills to calm the crazies listening by peddling books written by con artists.
Adrian White
wow, for all those people that curse boomers listen to this interview and see how not far along we are now actually.
I only ever listened to coast to coast am in my suv, if I was camping or traveling, I was somewhat nomadic during that period in my life and it was awesome to be alive parked in the desert or along the coast thinking about the nonsense art bell talked about…. and the respect he always gave his callers and their strange ideas. I never once listened to it at home. Good times. great theme music
