George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

[valdez]

     A mildly funny April fools opening where George states that the powers that be have decided to change the format to a cooking show (toast to toast) starting next week.  It went on a little too long.
     I seem to recall the web bot boys (George Ure & Clif High) pissing me off the last time they were on with their defense of the current Iranian regime (re: post #446), but this time around they put a lid on the rhetoric and stayed on their message of the doom that will begin sometime in late July, and by Christmas we will all be eating each other.

[Marc.Knight]

     Memo to George:
     Art does not fill in for you.  You fill in, albeit poorly, for Art.

Well said.  Interestingly, perhaps George feels this is the case, therefore he can never rise to the occasion and perhaps reach a level of personal excellence.  What am I saying... this is impossible.

[Marc.Knight]

George is from an era of radio when bored, lazy Top 40 jocks used to prepare for a shift by hyperventilating.  Got worse as time went by and, like George, they realized their peppy voice was empty white noise.  Some jocks became so addicted to hyperventilating that they were doing it between records.  Turned them into zombies before the shift was half over.  Sound familiar?  Of course one can only imagine what George inhales during normal breathing -- Brylcreem in his mustache, salves for ingrown ear hair and Lysol to mask the smell of BS.  He's also been messing around with largely untested folk cures for various conditions.  Some of this stuff he's been hawking has questionable medicinal value and is liable to kill or cripple a fellow if used long term.  But ol' Flat Earth George will drive himself over a cliff because science says gravity will kill him.         

bwahahahah.

GEORGE KNAPP IS THE BEST REPLACEMENT.....HIS GUESTS ARE UNCONVENTIONAL..... DEALING WITH THE PARANORMAL, THE MYSTERIOUS, THE UNKNOWN, THE STRANGE.

Ian is good, but his topics can be boring and/or more mainstream.....I can listen to that on regular TV or radio.  I've emailed him three times about this. Uhhmmmm, no response.

GN, too, gives too much air time to economic issues.
If I want to listen to our failing economy, I turn to CNN, FOX, AND MSNBC.....I am sick of GN hosting these type of programs.  I want to "get away from daily problems"...not listen to them in the middle of the night!

I think Tom (a previous poster) said it.....Knapp already has his regular "gig".....who knows if he wants to host C2C full time.  I SURE WISH HE WOULD CONSIDER IT!

[valdez]

     I was under the impression that Art was hosting the show tonight and was quite disappointed and pissed to hear George's stupid intro followed by his usual news review that included RCH promising UFO disclosure by Obama himself, the numbers lady yapping about the number seven, some ten year old child actor from the "V" show who couldn't put two coherent thoughts together, a medium psychic broad named Jodi livon, who sounded hot, and that's usually all it takes to get my attention, but I was expecting Art, so screw her, and then, during stupid open lines, George suggest we make Mexico the 51st state as a solution to the border problem.  Yeah.  That's a &@# great idea.
     Aghh!

[Marc.Knight]

Is absolutely CLASSIC George and says a lot about the way he does (or does not) think. 

"um - wait - I haven't noticed a chance to beat one of my favorite dead or dying horses - so give me one! - I don't work for a living you know."

George's skill as a radio talk show host equals that of a one-legged man in an ass kicking contest.

     "Welcome to this wonderful program", was how George opened the show tonight.  Gerald Celente mentioned that on 9/11 he wanted to take all his cash and go to Canada.  Way to go Gerald.  The door is still open.  I thought you were cool.  Later some guy named Xenethon ( Yeah.  I don't know either )  said that humans are done evolving physically, so those of you who were hoping to grow a second nose can forget about it.  He also said something about the earth getting sucked into a black hole.  Great.  More crap to deal with.

X is pronounced as Z (i.e.  Xenethon is a guest on the moronethon show).  No biggy, just thought you'd like to know.

     With the continuing attacks on capitalism that we're getting from DC these days, I've found myself doubling up on my support for corporations and their right to do whatever the heck they want, and while I don't see a change in my stance happening anytime soon, tonight's guest, Dr. Nic Begich, said something concerning the recent Supreme Court ruling (giving corporations the right to spend tons of money on political campaigns) that's going to stick in my head for a while:  "Corporatons should not have the same rights as humans because, first of all, they live forever, and, second of all, they have no souls."

    Steve Quayle plows through four hours of God, Apocalypse, bank runs, chemtrails, secret government installations on Phobos, giants, God, Egyptian mysteries, giants, God, Soylent Green, God, and giants.
     A kid called in an told George that cadets at a U.S. military academy were being forced to salute the Chinese flag.  George was shocked and wondered why he had not heard of this before.
     Eh, because its not true.
     Gullible, ain't he?
     Oh yeah, an asteroid will pass by the earth today closer than the moon's orbit.  Thank you, NASA, for the advance warning.  I have almost enough time to kiss my ass goodbye.

I'm not being sarcastic.  snoory actually looks better as Gollum than he does as himself.

     Micheal Tellinger believes that humans were genetically engineered by aleins to dig for gold, and that nuclear weapons existed thousands of years ago, and of a conspiracy by archaeologist to hide the truth.
     More interesting is George's latest ad for that food stuff where he wants you order the food and some seeds so you can eat the food now until your garden is ready to eat.  No mention of a crisis, or emergency, or anything.  Just eat the stuff now.  Right now. 
     Is he nuts?

It's a conspiracy.

[A31Chris]

lol good thread. totally agree.

At least Noory doesnt censor people that I've noticed.

And 2012 is big business. They are probably pushing him to tie everything into Doomsday. Ratings go up.

[valdez]

     This is the second time George has done a segment on the Fair Tax.  I'll give him credit for that.  It may be an idea that could save the republic.

[sanddollar]

sounds like mainstream radio instead of c2c.  Then there was IP's show about the Catholic scandal a few nights ago.They just get so far away from C2C's supposed focus that if it's not George Knapp or Art Bell, I don't listen anymore.
I really wish they'd stay true to the Original AB Dreamland format, that's what made it so different from everything else on the radio.

[CoastToCoastWeekend]

Coast to Coast AM is gone.  Sure, we all type on this board and have a lot to say, but we are like a bunch of people at a funeral who talk about the dead as if they still live.  We are too afraid to admit what has happenned.  Coast to Coast AM with Art Bell is gone; its dead.  Noory is a complete fool, Punnett sure tries (yet, fails by such a small margin), and Knapp will never host full time.  After listening to Bell host the last few times, I was really excited (much the way we often laugh a lot at funerals), but after the thrill was gone, I realized that Art seems (to quote another poster) like the yacht owner putting in only enough time to pay the bills. 

I think we should move on.  Why are we here?  To lament about a show that has been dead for ten years?  Art is not coming back full time.  George is unlistenable.

I know some of you will say that we should be happy that Art hosts once and awhile.  I understand your point.  But how many more times can we listen to Art takes open lines where every caller essentially begs him to come back?  That has gotten really old.  Remember the old Open Lines?

I don't mean to be negative, but sometimes I wonder what we all are really looking for.  We will never find it.  Art isn't coming back.

Hard to argue with this.  George Noory is a dour monument to the success of incompetence in this country... the Emperor's New Clothes of radio broadcasting today.  Art is essentially gone.  All the more important to have 24 hour streaming of the old shows.  I, for one, hope that a new "Art" will rise from the fleeting shadows of the paranormal and entertain us again.

[Tom from Hong Kong]

I agree with the sentiment and think you are correct, absent Premiere suddenly and unexpectedly changing direction and giving Noory the boot.  It is unfortunate that a major radio network won't sponsor George Knapp to start a competing show (although he probably has non-competition clauses in his Premier contract). 

[valdez]

     Because sometimes, in spite of Noory, and with a little help from Art, Punnett, and yeah, even Knapp, we learn something, or see something from a different point of view, because for all the blowhards that pass through,  an occasional , real, intense guest gets booked that blows my mind.  Because I like Hoagland, and Howel, and who else is gonna let Peter Lance ramble on and on and on.  Because the truth is out there, we're just gonna have to wade through a whole bunch of crap to get to it.

[valdez]

     Shysters and snake oil salesmen Bradley Lockerman and John Seari hawking a "free energy" contraption.  Art would have nothing to do with these guys.  Ian would have raked them through the coals.  George was eating it up like slop in a pig pen.

[starrmtn001]

I'm still relatively new here but I've met some wonderful people already.  I'm not going to stop coming here and visiting with new friends just because snoory has trashed weekday c2c.

I still listen on weekends.  I do like George Knapp and Ian, and have the feeling we'll be hearing more of Art on C2C than we have in the past.  Asia will soon be old enough to start school.  What do you think Art will do with those few free hours?  I think (and dearly hope) he will come back, part time, to save HIS Coast To Coast show from it's fate worse than death.

Why are we here you ask?  Well, I'm here because I like the people on CoastGab.  Why are you here? 
Move on if you must, but I'm staying.

not shocking he'd do this.  it's the biggest hack bit in radio.  "oh nooo!!! the management is going to change the format!!!"  jocks everywhere do it every year. no surprise noory would go down this road.

<<<<<douche chills.

Sadly, it was probably an April Fools joke played on George by the producers, and he believed it.

A real gem on tonight's show:


"Your book is entitled 'The Intelligent Universe' which implies to me that its an intelligent universe.  What do you think?"

- George Noory

"Your book is entitled 'The Intelligent Universe' which implies to me that its an intelligent universe.  What do you think?"

- George Noory

It was a whole night of dumb, nowhere questions, one after another, designed to keep his quest from elaborating on any one idea, or thought.  Stephan martin, Duane Elgin, and James Gardner were laying out some heavy stuff, and George is wondering who starred in the movie, "What's it all about, Alfie?"
     The "intelligent universe" quote floored me, and later on in the show he asked, "is the universe still evolving and changing?"  How does a question like that come out of an adult's mouth?  Is this Sesame Street?  Is it possible he dumbs down the questions so that the audience won't get confused?  Isn't that contrary to his repeated claim that c2c listeners are the smartest there is?  The guy is a toad.

[MV/Liberace!]

Isn't that contrary to his repeated claim that c2c listeners are the smartest there is?

Most talk show hosts claim their listeners are among the smartest in the known universe.  That's another hack radio 101 go-to.  God, does George Noory suck chimp.

[MV/Liberace!]

And 2012 is big business.

boy, you've got that right.  and unlike the Y2K thing where everybody knew it was bullshit at the stroke of midnight, the 2012 thing will give every dvd hawking, survival-kit recommending jism satchel who appears on c2c a REEEEALLY wide berth in terms of how much time they'll have to ride this new gravy train they're trying to stir up for themselves.
