| - Coast to Coast used to emphasizes very unusual topics, and is full of personal stories related by callers. While program content varies, most nights are focused toward the muldane, and subjects such as the occult, remote viewing, hauntings, shadow people, psychic predictions, card reading, magic numbers, rock bands, cryptozoology and science fiction literature, among other paranormal topics. and counter-terrorism After the theme song is played (Giorgio Moroder's The Chase from Midnight Express), the broadcast is typically kicked off with a reading of current events or news stories by the host, with callers weighing in if time permits. This is usually followed by a lengthy interview with the evening's guest, or hours of open phone lines. Occasionally, roundtable discussions are held on one of the show's common topics. Since Art Bell has resumed weekend hosting from the Philippines, he has focused on scientific topics. Seems, since Coast has lost their long-time announcer to the Red Eye Radio people, the show is going dowing hill rapidly and has mad a vast departure from the initial Art Ball programming. Seems they are unwilling to tackle the tough subjects. During hours of "open phone lines", calls are taken and put on air without any screening, at least according to original host Art Bell. More recently, under George Noory, open lines have added topics for callers to share their experiences or stories about a particular issue or situation. The show has multiple call-in numbers, of which there are always at least five (as of 2005): for "east of the Rockies", "west of the Rockies", first-time callers, "international callers" and finally a "wild card" line. They are all announced at the beginning of each broadcast by Ross Mitchell. The shows opening, which is now famous, had been spoofed on the now defunct nationally-syndicated Phil Hendrie Show, with Hendrie imitating Mitchell's trademark deep voice and repeating his one phone number for all four lines. On special occasions, Coast to Coast AM rolls out more numbers, including lines that are reserved for special "themed" callers, for example those who claim to be from other dimensions, time periods, and those possessed by spirits. The Halloween edition of Coast to Coast becomes for the coming year, and the host (commonly Art Bell) rating the predictions made a year earlier.
