George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

[SciFiAuthor]

George is definitely more on his game with the bumper music. House of the Rising Sun sung by Eric Burdon and the Animals gives me chills. We have like 6 billion people on earth, and no vocalists like that now. What the holy Hoagland happened to music? It sucks sooooooo bad now.

Thanks for clarifying Roy. I tried to remember who said it when I posted. That was a funny comment by the way.
I might have to watch that movie again. Beats listening to C2C.

You got that right.  VERY long list of things more satisfying than lisssning to Dave Noorie.

I remember the first time I saw Burdon in a video - I was like wow, that voice is coming out of that little guy!

  It's all really completely hopeless with Dave.  Perhaps it's a good thing that he just can't, won't or is not capable of getting it.  I think he'd probably die of shock if he ever comprehended just how terrible he really is at hosting radio.  I know he'd be safe hosting children's shows.
No one would harm there.  I feel like i'm starting to beat the proverbial dead horse.  Good night

LOL - yeah, I was thinking about passing a kidney stone being preferable ... then naming it Dave.

Hosting EVIL childrens shows?

Evil and abused kids - great - this show is nirvana for Dave.

[shell88]

Ya that might be too scary for him. WTF  I see why he clings to where he is now. I guess he's got no where else to go.

If you guys keep pushing, you're going to turn poor George into another Orson Welles. Bitter and lashing out. I'll have no part in it!

More Drunk Orson Welles Outtakes

[GluttonForPunishment]

He's on auto-pilot -  generic responses that are clearly just something to say because he feels he has to respond for some reason.  In all these cases, he kinda muffles his replies like they're an after thought.  But what gets me really ticked, time after time, is how he talks over his guests when they are about to say something I really want to hear. He interrupts, then goes on to another usually stupid question but usually takes another caller...like that's far more important.   Does George do this deliberately???  I think it's that he doesn't listen and is already formulating his next question to the detriment of being a good interviewer.   It's a bad habit.

Dude, tip of the iceberg. He's a non sequitur automaton instead of a talk show host:

Good point!
Of course
That's huge!
You too
Split show
Classic
What drives you?

"It's a bad habit." 

It's not a habit.  That's Tommy with the teleprompter.

He's a bad habit that will continue for a long time because of his new contract.  Don't his superiors even listen to show???   They must be as lame-brain as Noory is.   His idiocy leaves the door open for another show to open up.   It's just a matter of time before more of us pull the plug on Coast2Coast.

[Roy Hinkley]

No Dave, the lady who "talked down" the school shooter was not a hero.  Dumbass.

[GluttonForPunishment]

Does George have some kind of weird compulsion to say "good point" at times when it makes no sense to do so? He says it whether or not it fits the situation. Is it like a nervous tic? He's done it for years.

It's to let us know that he's the authority on everything.  His one upmanship is part of his mental script roboton.

The difference between Art and George is that if you didn't listen to Art, you felt like you missed something. Which is how you feel if you listen to George.

Best quote in a long time on these boards.  Missed your posts.

This guest is really interesting, but George seems to just cut interesting conversation threads short with his cue cards.
Overall, still pretty good and reminds me of the adage "a broken clock is right twice per day." So maybe a Noory is right twice per month.

[Jambar]

He just said to the guest, "Tell me about the courageous leadership organization, called the Courageous Leadership . . . Organization."  Wow.

Hey Aldous,

You've probably been asked a million times, but what movie is your avatar from?

That's right
I think so too
There is no doubt about it
Uh-huh (Dave once explained that this is a little trick to let the guest know the line hasn't gone dead if they've been talking for a while. It says, according to Dave, 'I'm still here.'

Btw, over the weekend, we were talking to a well-known TV presenter who was recently interviewed by Dave, and enquired as to what the experience was like. 'Well,' came the answer 'he was a little odd. He had a lot of weird non sequiturs.'
No kidding!

Hey Aldous,

It's a selfie.

LOL - I'm completely confused (which ain't hard to do).  I never saw the movie (sorry), and I can't figure out who you are...

Wait, are you Kirk Lazarus?
