George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

[ringthane]

More stupidity -- the night before Alex Jones, George made just a blatantly dumb comment to the guest. They were discussing world regimes/leaders, and in reference to the rise of Hitler Noory said something to the effect of "you know, the biggest mistake after WWI was letting Germany rebuild." This kind of ties into last night's topic of currency and the fed.


I started screaming at the radio. Hitler/Third Reich was the offspring of precisely what George suggested we do. Germany was raped at Versailles and paved the way for the social fomentation that started to brew. Brutal reparations and isolation was not the way to deal with Weimar Germany.


Japan is a perfect example -- the US turned Japan into a parking lot, then we showed up with money, aid shipments and reconstruction teams. Then again, I'm a jingoistic bastard that thinks Truman did the right thing.

Wow... just wow... as a hardcore history buff, that is so mind blowing I want to go break all of my radios so this befuddling stupidity won't infect me.


By the way, Coast to Coast just lost their Seattle affilate... and no one in Seattle cares.

Like you, I'm a buff, a layman, someone that knows enough to be dangerous and wrong more often than not. The interwar period is interesting because I think there are a lot of current parallels -- the world powers were too passive (and weak) to put a stop to Italy's aggression in N Africa and Japan's move in Manchuria and basically blew Hitler off. Seeing brazil, russia, india and china on the rise, america on the decline and our lukewarm 'engagement' with iran, etc just makes me go 'hmmm...'


Seattle -- losing King County has gotta be a blow, at least to the ego... isn't Seattle like a top 30 or so media market?

I'm in Seattle and I care.  KVI will be missed.  Now it's an 'oldies' meat grinder. 
Much as I don't care for Noory, it was better than the same 12 songs from the 60's over and over and over and over.

As much as i feel your pain, General, I hope there are more Seattles and Premier wakes up and gives Noory the old heave-ho.

In case anyone missed it, a few examples of exactly how George sucked LAST night.

Guest John Petersen talked at length about a number of things relative to whole system change/2012, etc. drawing from a number of influences such as Spiral Dynamics, Ken Wilber, Barbara Marx Hubbard and a wide range of others. Turns out he has coauthored a book on Indigo Children and he talks about this too.  Two things he harped on were 1) that government is not able to effect shift - and 2) that DNA will alter in 'new humans' who are achieving this 'shift'. Whether one agrees or not is irrelevant other than to make the following point about exactly how George sucked last night. 

First, George asks John late in hour three (after much aforementioned harping) "Will government be prepared for this change?" to which Petersen screams "NO!!!" (clearly his 'you IDIOT' voice) and then in hour four, a caller asks whether DNA will be different in 'new human' children born around or after 2012. For some reason, George decides to step up, hearing something that he figures is in his area of expertise (wrong George), taking his big opportunity to insert foot in mouth and he doesn't miss! "No, there won't be any change in actual genetic makeup, will there John?" (puff-puff, expecting Petersen to agree). "No, DNA will be different, there is a whole generation of kids who are already different..." says Petersen (his 'you weren't listening' voice). Ultimately Petersen throws him a bone that he agrees with George's fluffy spirituality comment (yes, the one mentioned on this forum many times) in an attempt to assure his book plug and possibly secure a future guest spot.

Good news was that overall GN let the guy talk at length between his rote, preplanned, gee-mr-wizard questions. While there wasn't a whole lot new here, not a bad show for my taste.

Ran into a lot of static last night on all my preset stations.  Nice review.

I caught Noory's DNA comment as well, and it doesn't make sense if you believe the whole 2012 hysteria -- namely, we're in some sort of 11,000 year cycle, and one of the side effects is a lessening of earth's magnetic field, which protects us from solar radiation, ergo we will all be susceptible to micro-evolution and this great genetic/spiritual awakening. So Noory takes his whole tinfoil moonbat 2012 theory and tosses it out the window, steps up to the plate and preempts the guest by declaring there is no/will be no genetic changes.


Whatever, dude. Get your lunatron theories straight. I can suffer lunatrons if they're passionate and consistent, but George just vomits up mindless babble. Even stopped clocks are right every 12 hours.


Challenge -- we need to start intelligently pranking this guy, live. Call in, get on. Be informed. Be intelligent, subtle. Slip inconspicuous non sequiturs and inside jokes into the call and cap your question with the mystery that burns inside each of our hearts -- "could it be a portal?" Bonus points mentions of portals, angels, sand scripts, the word 'absolutely' and the phrase 'there are no coincidences.'


Someone step up to the plate. You will forever be immortalized here at Coastgab.

     Why was Whitley Strieber on to discuss the mysterious missle off the California coast?  I'm sure Richard C. has had enough time to conjure up some wacky theory that would sure beat the heck out of the explanation we're now getting, which is "eh..we have no &^% clue."

Perfectly said. When you think about it, his is a rare ability. Reminds me of those contestants on American Idol who sing so perfectly off-key. It's more difficult than it appears.

Challenge ON!!!
Once we've successfully branded ourselves on C2C, we can call other live talk shows with our 'signature' call - kind of like the old 'baba booey' from the Stern show. (e.g. "did you hear Rush get Snooried today? Limbaugh didn't have a fucking clue!")
In the infamous words of GN himself, "You never know..." 

have to figure out how you guys are referencing previous quotes in the posts, new to this as you can see

Calm down!  I have a theory on why Richard C. was not on last night.  The longer that he has to muddle over the situation and dream on it and check out his hyperdimensional physics calculations the more expliciably appealing his theory will be.  It has to gel.  That was just too soon. 

I think you can look for him to be on tonight if the mystery is not solved today.  Mike Bara is a guest and he and Hoagland were co-authors on Dark Mission.  That would be the ideal time for him to make an appearance.

George Noory just now: "I got my own little group of haters out there too.  That's just the way they are.  They need to move on."

HA!  Also, George just said Andrew D. Basiago will be on tomorrow!  I think he may be my favorite C2C guest of all time.  Three more hours (if Noory doesn't close up shop early again) of stories about the government sending little kids through time and space for no apparent reason.

Ooooohhhhhh yeah.. I thought he sounded familiar. The description of the machines and the kids they used as guinea pigs was killer stuff.


I can see the post-it note on Snoory's fridge this morning -- "ask Basiago if device opens a portal."

[valdez]

     A guy named Mike Bara was on.  He collaborated with Richard C. on Dark Mission.  Here are a few quotes I thought were cool:  "I can't believe I'm talking about this hippie stuff", "the idea of dark matter is stupid", "a lot of quantum physics is a bunch of crap", "Richard C. Hoagland is a genius", and "Shit, I'm out of beer, hold that thought, George, I'll be right back."

Dammit George, we're not haters, we're critics! But, since your brain stopped developing in high school, you don't understand the difference. Your 'little' brain filters everything through a narrow, self-absorbed and extremely limited set of beliefs. A wise person seeks to improve themselves based on input from 'the universe' of which we are most certainly a part. Seek opportunities for improvement George! Don't wait until you're unemployed, shaking your head, wondering "Maybe I should have listened to my well-intentioned friends on CoastGab!"

Wow, looks like a bigger dipshit than he sounded. And that's tough.

i see the word "haters" thrown about frequently these days.  i think use of the word is a deliberate attempt to dismiss a group of people as a rabid bunch of neanderthals who just don't "get" how awesome someone or something is.  he needs to examine WHY we say what we say about him rather than fixate on the whole "awww, they hate me" bit.  he has oversimplified the situation, and in doing so he's suggested we have nothing to critique.  we're simply mean people.

And the irony here is, since we are dismissed - we do get a little mean from time to time, though it's not the primary spirit here.  There are other places on the web though . . . that are another story.

Producer Tom surprises George by reading a letter of praise on the air!  Noory's being nominated for a PRESIDENTIAL MEDAL OF RADIO HONOR!  (Or something like that.)

     I found Thursday's guest, time traveler Andrew Basiago, fascinating, and the calm and confident delivery of his astounding story a sure sign that's he's nuts.  Richard C. was also on, but not to discuss the California missile (whats up with that? He's the obvious go to guy on this.  Streiber is good at mumbling and emoting) to talk about cracks in the space shuttle something or other.  Scrap the dang thing already and lets get started on a space vehicle worthy of the great American experience.  Cool looking, and fast, and able to blast off into space regardless of whether its raining, or cloudy, or birds flying around, or mosquitoes, or whatever.  Last night's guest, demonologist Keith Johnson, was cool. 

[Marc.Knight]

C2C fails to distinguish between guests who have successfully gone completely mad, and those who are only slightly crazy.  They leave that up to us.

[SnapT]

I loved Basiago too, though one thing that annoyed me is that George apparently had no memory of his appearance on the show a year ago, because they went over virtually identical ground as last time.  I don't think there was even one new bit of insane information revealed.  Except perhaps the fact that during his childhood trip back in time witness to the Gettysburg address (what an important mission), he was terrified to look at Abe Lincoln's face for some reason.  It's weird details like that that make this guy so compelling.

[SnapT]

Oh, and I loved the caller who pointed out that Basiago's stories were a combination of various sci-fi movies and TV shows, and Basiago replied that he rarely watched sci-fi as he found it boring.  But he seemed to reference a lot of sci-fi before that.  And his description of the way in which he was projected back to dinosaur times was virtually identical to the holodeck from STAR TREK: TNG.  Not only was he claiming that during the '60s the government was secretly sending hundreds of children through time and space, he also claimed in the 1960s that the government had a HOLODECK.

[MV/Liberace!]

if i had a holodeck, i would use it to create one of the holodecks on sttng.  that would be SWEEET.

[robey1129]

I caught the tail end of Basiago on C2C and thought he was full of shit. He had all kind of information about meeting future presidents until Snoory grew a pair and asked him who was gonna be president in 2012. As if the government would actually invent time travel and not use it for their own nefarious reasons. Did Snoory ask him all of the qualifying questions: (yea, like that is gonna happen): Where are all of the time travelers? What is preventing people from altering history and averting calamities?, etc. Did I hear dude say that time travel will be a common thing for everyday people in the future? I know if I could buy me a time machine, say like at Sears or Walmart or somethin', I'd go back and do everything I could to prevent Noory from getting into the radio business. I know...I could go back and marry Snoory's mother. Wait........

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

     Richard C. got an hour to speculate and theorize and belittle George.  Somebody has to do it.  In a complete call-screener security breach someone actually got through and reminded RCH that none of the things he said would happen actually happened.  Richard wiggled his way out of that like a snake in a grease pitt.  George's co-author on Journey to light, William J. Birnes, talked about ufo's and alien life.

i just CAN NOT stomach the idea of listening to george's show.  however, when i read your show summaries, it makes me feel like i've really missed something.
