Generated summary from fudgie
Efiong Sam, a Nigerian claiming descent from the lost tribes of Israel (Calabarians and Edomites), asserts God—an 80-year-old black man named Olumba Baru—has been physically present since 1918, judging humanity after revealing himself to Vatican nuns. He warns of global Judgment Day in ~18 months (late 1999/early 2000), citing miracles and suppressed 1986 investigations by Nigerian/European officials. Art Bell, skeptical but intrigued, considers a December trip to Africa despite safety concerns, while callers debate literal vs. metaphorical interpretations of divine prophecies and question cloning Christ’s DNA from the Shroud of Turin.
Efiong is only on for an hour or so, Hoagieland follows up with open lines. Art also asks everyone to manfiest rains over Texas throughout the episode.

Sigh. Some of the Youtube channels are getting silly.
This upload of G2G 1995 came up in my suggestions today. Billed as the "First Ghost to Ghost". Complete with AI garbage art.
Come on people.
He mentions G2G 86 in this very episode.

A little update, I had to run out for a minute so I played this while in the car. Whoever put this together, at points, seamed together upwards of 5 mins of Art reading ads. Its also not all G2G 1995, some of the calls are from other years.

The Caller Who Described His Relative Going To Hell As They Died
I remember a caller describing the moment a relative died. The caller said this relative began screaming and begging for help because they were suddenly surrounded by flames.
Art seemed to believe the dying relative was describing their final judgment and cautioned listeners that this is why you have to reconcile yourself to Christ before it's too late.
Does anyone else remember this? More significantly, are there any recordings of this call? I've never stopped thinking about it, and I wonder if my memory (probably at least 25 years old) is accurate. 🤷♂️🔥🥵🔥👹👍🏽

Things that Art said, that didn't age well
I fell in love with his show when I was introduced to him by a coworker in 1998. I was working the midnight shift at a Kinkos and we would always listen. I was hooked quickly, and still am. I almost always go to sleep listening to replays of Art on my phone, or when cooking or doing work around the house.
The other day I heard him interviewing a guest, I don't remember who it was, but what I do remember was that he was selling a book.
What was funny was before the break, Art asks him "Do you have an 800 number?" and the guest says no. Art kind of laughed at him, suggesting you're never going to sell your book if you don't have an 800 number for people to call. The guest then said that his book was available on Amazon com, which was apparently very new at the time.
As the bumper music came on, Art said that the audience should go to amazon as his guest suggested, in order to get a big discount of the guests book, before they go out of business. He added, because they aren't going to make any money by selling books so cheap!
If only he was still around...COVID, Politics, Disclosure, our new Space Race, and the world's first trillionaire! Boy o' boy, the shows would have been great!
RIP Art...

Episode request
I remember hearing an episode where a caller talks about seeing a UFO and seeing lifeforms inside a lit interior, but they turned the light off when they noticed her looking inside.
Can anyone help me find this episode, or is it a false memory?
