According to the show's Facebook page, two other announcers — Charles Tomas and Dick Ervasti — were hired as replacements and announced that day. This ended up being just a change in location, not absence, however, as Mitchell was immediately hired by Cumulus Media Networks' Red Eye Radio as that show’s voiceover announcer. On September 16, 2013, Mitchell reunited with Coast to Coast founder and original host Art Bell as announcer for Bell's new Sirius XM Radio show, Art Bell's Dark Matter. Bell died in 2018. Phil Hendrie has parodied Art Bell for many years on his own radio talk show. These segments included Hendrie's parody of Mitchell's deep voice, and featured comedic variations on the call-in phone numbers and catchphrases Mitchell used for Bell's program.
