What is your question?
I first noticed a new sound/noise from inside the passenger compartment this summer, not so much or often in the fall, but now hearing it again louder. I think it happens when the a/c or defroster is running. I've gotten out and opened the hood when I've heard the sound a couple times. It sure sounds like a bearing going bad, but I can't tell whether the sound is coming from the radiator fan or the a/c condenser fan.

That's the same fan. The question is - is it the fan motor making noise (not usually), or an accessory drive pulley making noise when load is increased, as with the AC compressor turned on (which happens both with AC and defrost operating...). I suspect a pulley - tensioner, idler, AC, water pump....making noise. If you take the belt off and spin the pulleys by hand, you may get some clues.
