Bell abandoned conventional political talk in favor of topics such as gun control and conspiracy theories , leading to a significant bump in his overnight ratings . The show 's focus again shifted significantly after the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995 . Many in the media did not want to be blamed for inciting anti-government or militia actions like the bombing . Subsequently , Bell discussed off-beat topics like the paranormal , the occult , UFOs , protoscience and pseudoscience . During his tenure at KDWN Bell met and married his third wife , Ramona , who later handled production and management duties for the program
