Art Bell opens Friday night with the latest news on the San Bernardino shooting, now confirmed as ISIS-inspired after the FBI reveals that Tashfeen Malik pledged allegiance to the Islamic State on Facebook moments before the attack. He also notes that Germany has voted to join the bombing campaign in Syria and that Britain has begun airstrikes.
The open lines bring a wide range of calls. On a special Inhuman Encounter line, a caller from Kansas describes a red-eyed humanoid that leaped between treetops and dive-bombed his car on a muddy road near an old burial ground. A woman from Michigan recalls six siblings witnessing a horned, red-faced figure clawing at their second-story farmhouse window. Other callers report orange eyes in a ceiling vortex, violent banging from an empty locked bathroom, and a glowing sphere that emerged from a firefly.
Between encounter stories, Art fields calls about gun rights, the Attorney General's remarks on anti-Muslim rhetoric, the prospect of one-world government, and the possibility of secret human cloning at an Idaho university. He also pranks his audience by pretending to eat a light bulb live on the air, inspired by guest Todd Robbins from earlier in the week.
