????️ Episode: ART BELL | THE TIME MACHINE SAGA: The Disappearance of Mad Man Marcum
(Merged Special: Originally Broadcast Apr 18, 1995 & Jul 30, 1996 - Coast to Coast AM)

It sounds like a science fiction movie, but it happened in real life. In 1995, a 21-year-old named Mike "Mad Man" Marcum called into Art Bell’s show with a bizarre and highly illegal confession: he had stolen six massive 300-pound transformers from a local power substation. His goal? To build a functioning time machine on his front porch.

In this incredible two-part saga, you will hear the complete timeline of Marcum's obsession. In Part 1 (1995), Marcum details the theft, the wild blueprints of his "Jacobs Ladder" vortex, and his determination to step through the portal.

Then, in Part 2 (1996), Marcum returns to the show one last time. He claims he successfully activated the machine, experiencing missing time, strange physical side effects, and glimpses into another dimension. Shortly after this final 1996 interview, Mike Marcum disappeared without a trace. He was never seen again. Did he succeed, or did his experiment destroy him?

Welcome back to the Kingdom of Nye. You are listening to a curated classic from Area 51 Signal, the ultimate archive dedicated to preserving the legendary broadcasts of Art Bell.
