George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

Possible wreckage debris found west of Australia in the Indian Ocean.

Let's see how Jorchie handles this breaking news.

It'll be more interesting to hear how Dames handles it.  "Oh, I had the map upside down!"

I just tuned in.  It sounds like another computer geek getting all orgasmic about technology replacing people -- McDonalds being self-serve, etc.  I love it when control freaks gush about how technology will replace people and then have nothing to say about what we're supposed to do to employ all of the people who are displaced.

Eugenics...illuminati...Weaving spiders come not here.

Some nitwit is calling -- Gayle? -- and she's one of those people who ends every sentence on an up-note, so a declaration sounds like a question.  EVERY SINGLE SENTENCE.  And she's got one of those flighty whispery voices on top of it.   UGH!  UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I just e'd Noory (cc: Lisa Lyon) asking that Robert Morningstar be encouraged to apologize for misleading the audience last time he was on:

I started bombing El Snoorio about 5 yrs. ago...Anybody can have an off-night, but this guy has off-months...I used to fastblast him about being so warm &fuzzy, then I moved on to chiding him about his  softball question interview style....then over time I noticed his countless malaprops. Oy... - Then there was the constant pitching of everything in a bottle...Where's that Sal Palmetto now? Where can I get my iodized silver?- The blue of my skin is wearing off...Triple strength fish oil...Testosterone pills...He's still going strong w/the Sleep-O-Matic airbeds (which are good) & carnivora-(who knows?)- It's just unbelievable. Anything for a buck...Have sent numerous polite critiques to Lisa, et.al, about getting him to wake up & stay on point...No progress there.
....Everytime he recounts his 9 yrs. in the reserves as a Lt. in Naval Intelligence makes me question the efficacy  of that organization...No doubt he was instrumental in keeping soviet submarines out of Lake Michigan...

...Regardless of my perception/opinion of his personal foibles, it all comes down to doing a good show,- & sorry Georgio , you're missing the mark.

....The fact that C2C management gassed JB Wells did not sit well w/me either...He was making their golden boy look bad w/out even trying, & they showed absolutely no class whatsoever in summarily dismissing him...

...The good news is, De Noorio will be hanging around like a wet pinata for a while longer...

...It's an audio trainwreck.

....That's my 17cents & thanks for listening.

fuck em.  they should all go get jobs, sir.

[Juan]

Of course, that's what will happen when the minimum wage rises to more than the cost of operating the machine.

[Dr. Sax]

I knew I had to join up when I heard the one Carolina 'Bigfoots' guy say they've had "a panoply of phenomena." Think Terry Southern. He'd love it. Of course, my sleep number is 90. It's firm but it's perfect.

Ha ha!

Par for the course now and it drives me insane. True enough, NPR is the worst for this.

I have been aware of this linguistic tic for a while... It is especially common on science-related stories on NPR.  I suspect it is employed as a transitional word to lead the often dim public along a train of thought that might challenge some listeners.  I daresay that scientists probably pretty quickly learn to dumb things down for their audience.  Still, it can be distracting!

[NORGEGORY]

Hey, anybody remember when Jorge crooned live on air?  The time he sang "Can't Help Falling In Love" during the show?  I thought I was being held hostage at a Lebanese wedding with Jorge storming the stage, stealing the singer's mic, and with wineglass in hand, proceeded to serenade the entire C2C audience, fancying himself to be Frank Sinatra or Dean Martin or something...it was horrible.  He backed up his effort that he's been asked to sing at weddings because he's such a talented singer and has such a melodious voice (malodorous, maybe?). 

That was it for me.  It was sort of like a surreal scene out of the Godfather.  Art knew his limitations and his strengths--this joker's all over the map, with an unrestrained ego to boost.  I don't even tune in anymore, not without checking the guest list first...have fun listening , y'all.  But you already knew that.

In a way, it's fitting--Jorge is the cheap. lounge act imitation of Art. 

[Dr. Sax]

"Language Virus" you say? Uh, I guess, at this point in time, having said that, basically, if you drill down, um, it's spot on! Conversate at the club. The DNA results are in. Tell them George sent you. You may be right. Supposably. Where's my snood.....

I remember economists predicting in the 60s that Americans would have so much leisure time in the 21st Century that stocks like AMF, Brunswick and Chris Craft went crazy. They failed to predict insatiable corporate greed.

George's narcissism and hubris makes me wonder if maybe he's become a closet Scientologist.  Its one "belief" topic he stays well away from.

Too true and sad.

Wednesday night is "Give Yourself a Break, Get OFF Coast to Coast" night. Jimmychurchradio.com, linked through artbell.com,  is having a show  MAR 19, 2014, Wed. 7-10pm PST  LIVE with RICHARD SAUDER, Ph.D UNDERGROUND BASES. And Jimmy plays White Snake music during his program, NOT old farts music. When I listen to this program Wed.-Fri.  I usually get my fix. Just in case you aren't familiar with it, Keith Rowland (Art Bell's former webmaster) runs artbell.com and books the programming. Jimmy Church announces on his show that he's sitting in for Art Bell till Art returns.

Jimmy's new in town. Jimmy... doesn't really know anyone.

[Bart Ell]

And Jimmy plays White Snake music during his program, NOT old farts music.

Is this White Snake fella you talk of a rapper of some sort who is currently all over that urban radio place?
You can't be referring to Whitesnake because, hate to break it to you, Whitesnake is old farts music.

Slide It In
Slow an' Easy
Spit It Out
Hungry for Love
Guilty of Love
Love Ain't No Stranger...

David Coverversion sure had a one track mind 30 years ago.

[Dr. Sax]

I hadda turn ol' Jimmy off pretty fast last night. His questions are more convoluted than JBW's and his underground-bases guest was the most defensive, crazy-as-a-bag-full-of-rats-in-a-burning-meth-lab guy I ever heard. Fuck all these quasi-hip a-holes who love the sound of their own voices. Wake me up when Art is back. Or when George's spot with Tanya Roberts comes back. She's so full of shit I love her.

Jimmy doesn't understand what you are trying to say. Jimmy is like a young, sexier Artamus Bell but Jimmy only plays cool new music like White Snake, WASP, Cinderella and EZO. Jimmy doesn't do radio, Jimmy does RADIO!

Last night's show was really hard to listen to -- I turned it off.  I am so desperate for something good to listen to. George Noory Sucks! which is why I found this forum and was hoping to find something that doesn't suck. I'll take suggestions for programs that don't suck.

[Bart Ell]

Now I am confused. It is like Jimmy is trying to throw everyone off the Jimmy scent after dedicating all of his posts to Jimmy before this. Jimmy's going into shock! Jimmy's gonna get you, Kramer! Jimmy holds grudges!

[zeebo]

...Everytime he recounts his 9 yrs. in the reserves as a Lt. in Naval Intelligence makes me question the efficacy  of that organization...No doubt he was instrumental in keeping soviet submarines out of Lake Michigan...

Haha, line of the day!  Welcome to the forum.

[zeebo]

....proceeded to serenade the entire C2C audience, fancying himself to be Frank Sinatra or Dean Martin or something...it was horrible. 

I'm not surprised as he's always oppressing us with those sentimental ballads from the olden times.  What a cheesball.

Haha - I woke up and this call was on the radio and I thought the same damn thing. Everything? A question? Stop it? Please?

[Dr. Sax]

How you doin', George? That's a great question, George. Only the president could get it. "Cause he was such a cool guy and all. Much to their chagrin. I'll take good care of the rabbit, George. It's the only one you've got.

PS  Thanks for your service, Jimmy.

Its Bob from the cartoon show Bobs Burgers and he is dressed up like Bobs Bigboy from the restaurant. Anyway, Bobs Burgers is a pretty good show.
