On the radio

Tonight I will be appearing on Coast to Coast with George Noory from midnight to 2 am (Pacific). The second hour should be dedicated to answering questions from listeners, so feel free to call in.

Genesis cover

On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.

 
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.


The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
 

"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

    Bob, always like to hear you on the radio. I assume midnight to 2 AM is PST? Second half of the show? I was wondering about your relationship with Coast as you have not been on with them in a while. I have sworn off Coast for several years now because of all the fear mongering they pushed about covid with that pseudo-scientist Howard Blum or Bloom or whoever he is. They let him, an ex music guy, speak with the authority of a doctor on their show about covid and I e-mailed George and told him how wrong that was and that I was not going to listen any more. I will make an exception tonight however.

  • t-dub: Yes, that’s Pacific time. I have added that detail to the post above.

  • t-dub: Since I suspect the bulk of Noory’s audience is on the west coast, I guess C2C decided it had to support the Wuhan panic to make its listeners happy.

    You may be right about that Bob, I don’t know. What I do know is that I miss Art Bell. He was the one that got me into talk radio in the first place back in 1988 when I was in college and couldn’t sleep. I remember scanning the AM dial looking for something, anything, to help me relax and finding him on KDWN was really cool.

    I liked Art better than George as well. I remember a flub about the pronounciation of carbonaceous chondrites once.

  • t-dub

    Love him or not, Art was a master at what he did, and he created and/or revolutionized, a form of radio. Open lines. Art used to do calls unscreened, off the cuff. No one does that. But unscreened, open lines, with Art was totally choice because of the way he could moderate the discussion in real time and engage with the caller in an interesting way.

    Good job! You sounded quite chipper tonight. That Jeff caller wasn’t me btw.

    I listen to C2C a lot….Still Miss Art Bell…
    But George was Against taking the Stab (and never did himself), and had many who were against the Wuhan Assault, by Red China and Progressives.
    But he did have persons on both Sides.. Howard was and is almost a joke ?, callers do not like his views on Many Points. Lol
