Joseph, hailing from Delaware, is praised for his exceptional skills.
Art then shifts to discuss a recent guest, Joseph Hermit, and the media’s reaction to his beliefs about UFOs and technology derived from aliens. He expresses his own frustrations with media inaccuracies and encourages open and uncensored storytelling in broadcast media. Art also mentions two incredible photographs on his website: one capturing a Phantom jet breaking the sound barrier at an airshow, and another purportedly showing an Air Force tunneling machine, which he invites viewers to examine and interpret.
The segment concludes with Art touching on current news, notably the impending retirement of NBA star Michael Jordan, which surprisingly leads the news over the impeachment trial of the President. He speculates about the trial’s broadcast and its potential ratings, and briefly mentions NASA’s confirmation of the previous year being the hottest on record. The segment ends with a mention of a mysterious flash and boom in Alaska, speculated to be a meteor, which had caught the attention of many.
In this segment Art Bell delves into various intriguing and mysterious topics. He begins by discussing a recent event in Alaska where a bright flash and loud boom were reported. Initially speculated to be a meteor, the phenomenon caused a 2.2 magnitude earthquake-like effect. Art questions the quick assumption that it was a meteor, pondering the energy required for such an explosion.
Art then shifts to environmental changes in the Bering Sea, highlighting unusual occurrences like extreme die-offs of seabirds, rare algae blooms, warm water temperatures, and low salmon numbers. He emphasizes the significance of these changes, considering the Bering Sea’s vital role in the US fish supply and its billion-dollar commercial value.
The conversation takes a turn to a mysterious illness affecting greyhounds in Florida, causing deaths and critical illnesses among the dogs. The cause remains unknown, labeled as a “coughing sickness.” Art also touches on a controversial government project involving the development of a killer fungus aimed at eradicating marijuana plants. He expresses concern over the potential environmental impact of such a bioengineered fungus.

He highlights the extensive content available to subscribers, including over a thousand shows and special live sessions.
The segment concludes with a caller’s intriguing story about repeatedly encountering a mysterious woman over the years, who appears not to age and has a distinctive appearance.
Art starts with a caller’s personal story about a mysterious woman who appeared unchanged over several years, linking it to his brother’s unexpected death. This leads Art to reflect on the nature of life and death, proposing a unique perspective on the life cycle. He suggests that life should start with death and proceed in reverse, ending with a return to the womb and concluding as an orgasm. This unconventional view of life’s progression is presented as an “interesting concept” that Art finds more logical.
The discussion then shifts to a caller from Omaha, Nebraska, who resonates with Art’s thoughts on life’s progression and wonders if this could explain the phenomenon of déjà vu. The caller also delves into numerology, specifically the number 666, and its association with the word “fox.” Art, however, finds this connection a bit too far-fetched.
Art then touches on a contemporary social trend where childless couples place advertisements in Ivy League university newspapers, seeking egg donors to conceive highly intelligent babies. He reads out some of these ads, highlighting the specific and demanding criteria set by these couples. This segment reflects the evolving attitudes towards conception and the desire for ‘super babies’ with specific genetic traits.
The discussion begins with a caller’s theory about the existence of two types of governments: a provisional government and a permanent government. This theory suggests that while presidents and political figures come and go, there is a consistent, underlying force that remains constant and influential.
Art then announces the night’s secret numbers as “six, four, and two,” but advises listeners not to delve too deeply into deciphering their meaning. Following this, a caller from Kansas shares his views on the government’s efforts to eradicate marijuana plants. He expresses concern that such actions could inadvertently affect other plants and disrupt the natural order. Art agrees, emphasizing the importance of respecting nature and the potential consequences of interfering with it.

Next, a caller inquires about Dr. Nick Begich, known for his interest in the HAARP project in Alaska. Art confirms interviewing Dr. Begich multiple times, mainly regarding HAARP, and mentions that Begich might be entering politics. Another caller from Denver describes witnessing an unusual, large, peach-colored light in the sky that appeared and disappeared quickly. Art suggests that this could be related to the theory of beings or crafts from other dimensions that momentarily appear in our reality.
The discussion then shifts to a caller from Columbus, Georgia, who brings up the topic of the Masonic Lodge and the book “The Cosmic Conspiracy” by Stan Deyo. The caller expresses admiration for Deyo’s work and hints at having interesting news to share in the future. The conversation about the Masons continues with a discussion about the knowledge supposedly possessed by 33rd-degree Masons, compared to 32nd-degree Masons.
A caller named Fritz discusses a TV show that aimed to demonstrate how gullible people can be, especially regarding alien-related hoaxes. Fritz expresses concern that Art might be targeted by such hoaxes, but Art reassures him that his show is an open forum and he presents information for his audience to decide its validity.
Art then receives a call from Tim in Portland, who provides a geological update about Mount Hood experiencing 25 earthquakes, with the largest being 3.2 on the Richter scale. Tim suggests that the deep earthquakes could indicate magma movement. Art humorously discusses the potential consequences if Mount Hood were to erupt, including the impact on communications.
The conversation shifts to Art promoting the “Coast Insider” audio subscription service, which offers podcasting, live and on-demand programs, and a vast library of shows. He also mentions the “After Dark” magazine, a monthly publication with editorials, interviews, and articles not found on the internet or covered by mainstream news.
The segment concludes with Art teasing an upcoming interview with Joseph Yellowlees, described as one of the nation’s greatest psychics.
Art introduces Joseph DeLouise, a renowned psychic and parapsychologist, who was named one of the country’s top ten psychics by American Woman magazine in September 1997. DeLouise is celebrated for his astonishingly accurate predictions, which include major disasters, political events, and stock market fluctuations. Some of his notable predictions include the Ohio River bridge collapse, the Chicago Sea Train crash, the Kennedy-Mary Jo Kopechne tragedy, the Sharon Tate murder, the assassination of Anwar Sadat, the Black Monday stock market crash of 1987, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the 1998 stock market surge.
DeLouise has been recognized in “Who’s Who in America” and has appeared on numerous radio and TV shows, including those hosted by Johnny Carson, David Susskind, and Merv Griffin. He is also a registered financial advisor and the author of the book “Psychic Vision,” based on his life and accomplishments.
During the interview, DeLouise discusses his belief that anyone can develop psychic abilities by turning inward and projecting their mind into the future. However, he notes that most people are too caught up in daily life to pursue such abilities. He also shares his personal shift towards religious work and his desire to give back, expressing a reluctance to make more predictions because he already knows what will happen and some of the future events are disconcerting.
DeLouise discusses his work as a financial advisor, where he combines his psychic abilities with financial guidance. He mentions that he prefers to give advice rather than manage people’s money directly. DeLouise predicts that the stock market will continue to rise in 1999, despite potential dips, as there is a lot of money waiting on the sidelines.
DeLouise then shares his views on taxes, expressing that despite their burden, they are necessary for maintaining the quality of life in a country. He compares the tax situation in the United States with that in England, noting the higher taxes and stricter immigration policies there.
The conversation shifts to environmental concerns, where DeLouise feels optimistic. He believes that the same people who polluted the planet will be the ones to clean it up, indicating a future of environmental restoration work. He also touches on the U.S. government’s plan to develop a fungal agent to eradicate marijuana, expressing skepticism about such an approach. DeLouise argues that every plant, including marijuana, has a purpose and should not be eradicated.
The segment takes a lighter turn when DeLouise mentions his black cat sitting on his notes, leading to a brief discussion about cats and their behavior.
Art and Joseph DeLouise delve into the topic of belief and its power, particularly in relation to witchcraft, magic, and voodoo. DeLouise emphasizes that the effectiveness of these practices hinges on the belief of the individual. He asserts that he would have been harmed long ago if such things worked without belief, as many would have wished him ill.
The conversation then turns to DeLouise’s experiences with competition in his field. Despite being 72 years old, he has outlived many of his competitors. He reflects on his journey since 1965, when he became involved with various spiritual organizations and churches, exploring and developing his abilities.
A significant part of the discussion focuses on the dangers of Ouija boards. DeLouise warns that if a Ouija board works, it can be destructive, leading to a life spinning out of control. He shares anecdotes of people he knew who were negatively affected by using Ouija boards. Art Bell relates his own unsettling experience with an ancient Ouija board left anonymously for him, which he refuses to discuss in detail due to the fear it instilled in him.
DeLouise recounts a surprising story about a couple of nuns who used a Ouija board and received messages, even involving a priest in the process. He teases a story about the nuns taking the board to a bishop, which he promises to continue after the break.
The segment concludes with Art Bell promoting the “After Dark” magazine and the “Coast Insider” audio subscription service, emphasizing the range of content available to subscribers.

DeLouise emphasizes the dangers of Ouija boards, agreeing with Art that they can lead to obsession and possession. He mentions that despite being sold as toys, Ouija boards can be harmful if they start to work.
The conversation then shifts to the topic of preparedness, particularly in relation to the Y2K concerns prevalent at the time. DeLouise advises people to be prepared by storing food and water, but personally, he does not believe in the severity of the Y2K issue, attributing his feelings to his psychic intuition. He recalls the 1950s when people were building bomb shelters during the Cold War, drawing a parallel to the current situation.
Art and DeLouise also discuss recent natural disasters and power outages, highlighting the importance of being prepared for any situation. DeLouise then shares his insights on the stock market, predicting a downturn but also noting that there is a lot of money waiting to re-enter the market. He suggests that the real challenge will arise when competing against European investments, advising people to consider investing in European stocks and the Euro.
DeLouise shares his experience as a hairdresser, where he began giving readings to clients. His accurate predictions led to appearances on a radio show, where he was asked to make broader predictions.
DeLouise recalls a specific incident where, while staring into his crystal ball, he predicted a bridge disaster. Initially hesitant to share this prediction due to its grim nature, he eventually did so on a radio show, foreseeing the collapse of a bridge in Ohio and the death of 57 people. This prediction came true three weeks later, leading to widespread recognition and appearances on shows like Johnny Carson’s and David Susskind’s.
Art asks DeLouise about the potential impact of his predictions, wondering if he might be seeing the future or inadvertently creating it. DeLouise reflects on this possibility, acknowledging the power of suggestion but dismissing the idea that he could cause events like bridge disasters or plane crashes.

This prediction later materialized, attracting media attention and questions about his psychic process.
DeLouise then discusses his involvement in the Sharon Tate murder case and the Chappaquiddick incident involving Ted Kennedy. He was flown to Chappaquiddick by private jet due to his prediction about a drowning-related tragedy around Ted Kennedy, which had appeared in the National Enquirer. DeLouise mentions that being near the event’s location was important for his meditation and insights.
Regarding the Sharon Tate case, DeLouise was asked to meditate on the incident, leading him to mention the names “Tex” and “Linda,” which later were connected to Tex Watson and Linda Kasabian, key figures in the case. His predictions and involvement in the case led to increased media attention and even surveillance, with his phone being tapped and receiving calls from individuals connected to Charles Manson.
Art then shares a story about his own crystal ball, which was acquired for him by Bob Crane during a trip to Taiwan. He describes how Bob Crane acquired a pure crystal ball for him from a remote village in Taiwan. The villagers celebrated the purchase with a party, mistaking Crane for someone of high importance due to the amount he paid for the crystal ball. Art then shares a photograph of himself taken through the crystal ball, which he posted on his website.
Joseph DeLouise continues the conversation about crystals, emphasizing their unique properties and the belief that they can store energy. He shares a personal story about a client who gave him a crystal, in which he saw an image of a witchdoctor behind bars. This experience led DeLouise to believe in the power of crystals for healing and other purposes. He also mentions a past life regression where the client was revealed to be a sailor in Marco Polo’s navy.
Art and DeLouise discuss the potential uses of crystals in technology and healing. Art explains the scientific basis of crystals in electronics, where they resonate at specific frequencies when voltage and current are applied. DeLouise predicts that crystals will be used in the military and for healing purposes in the future.
DeLouise advises wrapping the crystal in black velvet and occasionally looking into it for relaxation and insight. He believes that the crystal can take on a charge from the person using it, similar to a form of self-hypnosis.
Art then shifts the conversation to the topic of fame. DeLouise reflects on his own fame, stating that he never actively sought it and views it as a byproduct of his psychic work. He recounts how his fame grew after making accurate predictions on radio shows, leading to appearances on major programs like Johnny Carson’s.
DeLouise also discusses the commercialization of psychic abilities, particularly through 900 numbers offering psychic readings. He is skeptical of these services, noting that they often exploit people’s vulnerabilities for profit.
The segment concludes with DeLouise making two predictions. First, he foresees a volcano eruption, although he is unsure of the location. Second, he predicts an incident involving a ground-to-ground missile near the White House, assembled in a truck and fired from about 40 miles away. He clarifies that he does not believe the missile will hit the White House directly but will be close enough to create a significant event.
Joseph DeLouise discusses his process of making predictions and the limitations of timing in his visions. He mentions a recent earthquake around Mount Hood and recalls a prediction he made on the Merv Griffin show in 1973 about a plane hitting a mountain on the West Coast, which later came true.
DeLouise also talks about the challenges of predicting specific timelines for events. For example, he describes a vision of a large truck carrying a bomb aimed at the White House. He sees the missile being fired but does not believe it will hit the White House directly. He also mentions Saddam Hussein’s extensive military preparations, including deep tunnels and bunkers.
Art Bell interjects with a news update about Saddam Hussein’s recent draft message regarding Kuwait and its right to exist, highlighting the ongoing tensions in the region.

DeLouise advises those interested in developing psychic abilities to explore their minds and seek answers from spiritual guides or guardians.
DeLouise also addresses the question of whether future events can be changed. He believes that if events could be altered, his predictions would not materialize. He explains that while intuition can help avoid certain situations, major events he predicts are typically unchangeable.
The conversation then turns to the topic of fame and the commercialization of psychic abilities, particularly through 900 numbers. DeLouise criticizes those who use their psychic abilities for personal gain rather than helping others. He also shares his views on poverty, homelessness, and addiction, suggesting that these conditions are often self-imposed.
DeLouise discusses his experiences in casinos, describing how he uses psychic kinesis to influence dice rolls during specific times. He mentions the “amazing Randi’s” challenge and the difficulty of performing under test conditions.
The segment concludes with DeLouise stating that he has not been blacklisted from casinos because he gambles only for fun and knows when to quit. He emphasizes the importance of gambling responsibly and for entertainment rather than profit.
Joseph DeLouise talks about his informal education and how he became a hypnotherapist, using hypnosis to enter altered states of consciousness. DeLouise encourages people to learn more about their minds, meditate, and seek answers from spiritual guides.

Art Bell shares a story from John Lear about near-death experiences, suggesting that going towards the light might be a trick and that the darkness could be the correct path. DeLouise responds by emphasizing the importance of one’s own reality and beliefs.
DeLouise suggests that experiences like seeing flying saucers or having out-of-body experiences could be the result of unique brain wiring. He also speculates that the sensation of seeing ‘the light’ during near-death experiences might be a chemical reaction in the brain.
DeLouise shares his belief that dogs can sense their owners’ approach due to the unique frequency emitted by car generators. This theory is supported by a TV show experiment where dogs anticipated their owners’ unexpected return. He also discusses the ability of whales to communicate over long distances and compares it to the transmission of signals through the air, similar to radio waves.
Art Bell then opens the phone lines for listeners to ask general questions to DeLouise, emphasizing that they will not be doing individual readings. The conversation continues to explore the psychic world, with DeLouise sharing insights from his lifelong experience in the field.
The segment concludes with a promotion of the “Coast Insider” audio subscription service, which offers a range of features including podcasting, live and on-demand programs, and a comprehensive library of past shows.
In this final segment the conversation appears to circle back to a story shared earlier in the show.
