George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

[Who]

After a long day at the taxidermy shop, Ed and Walt enjoy hearing "the truth" on Coast to Coast AM.  They intend to use their Christmas bonus to become Coast Insiders.

[laserjock]

Are those George's illegitimate sons?

[Who]

Sir Julian Dullard is preparing for his 4-hour guest appearance on Coast to Coast AM. Sir Julian will join host George Noory to discuss the coming economic collapse, the imminent eruption of the Yellowstone Super Volcano that will extinguish all life on earth as well as his new book, "What NASA, the Government, Pat Sajak and Your Doctor Don't Want You to Know."

[yumyumtree]

Dave Schrader. He has his own show in Minnesota called "Darkness on the Edge of Town" (shortened usually to "Darkness Radio") which can be pretty good though he often has "true crime" nights which I don't like so much. But, on whole, he is pretty good at hosting C2C. Tends to allow callers a little too-much leeway sometimes (reading diatribes or scriptures) but better than you-know-who.

I thought it was Schraeder, but then I looked at the Schraeder thread on bellgab and didn't see any fresh posts, and that didn't seem right.

Very nice rendition ^^^


I'm listening to Art Bell Somewhere in Time, a 1997 interview with Father Malachy(sp?). It is pure radio perfection- filled with thoughtful questions, intelligent answers, and callers adding to the conversation. At the same time it is very depressing, realizing that shitfuck mushmouth Noory is all that's left of C2C. Fuck you George Noory. You suck shit.

I listened as well.......it was excellent.  I miss those nights......

[ItsOver]

Yes, SIT last night was a true classic.  Radio at it's finest.  If Art had only done this one show, he should still consider himself The Master of The Night.

Fortunately, Knapp is on tonight and with guests from The Vatican Observatory.  I hope it proves interesting.

[Who]

Roland, a long-time member of the Coast Insiders Club, was giddy with anticipation when he found out George Noory would be appearing at a meet and greet in his city.  He raced to the auditorium so he would be able to secure a front-row seat.

Martin's stuff was always classic. Interestingly he got on with Art at the relative end of his career but, I think, he probably is still well known because of those shows. I don't know where I stand on him. I REALLY, REALLY love his shows and interviews. His books were actually pretty interesting ("Windswept House" esp) but I also always had a feeling like a tick on me listening to him. Just something a little "off". I don't know. I'm not a Catholic but know enough of them and it is was interesting Martin's "status" and history. I still think there was more to him than Art was able to mine. I really would like to know more about those "murders" in Illinois (I think, with the Priest and nun I think?)  and that other Priest exorcist that was killed and when he started, but stopped sorta and vague, going into to the satan cult stuff here and in the Vatican itself. He never flushed it out enough in my opinion. But claimed police have files etc but, "good" they don't release them. BTW It has been a decade, or more, did he ever ACTUALLY say what the FATIMA secret was??

[norrykilledc2c]

Peggy Ann is looking forward to open lines this week. Her clairvoyant orange tabby Mr. Piddlesworth is ready to make his predictions for 2015.

[Who]

Walt and Ed always look forward to the annual Coast to Coast AM predictions show.  They consider it to be THE big event of the year and they wanted to be ready.  They went to Walmart and searched for hours until they found the perfect snacks to enjoy during the show.

Heard part of this, too, and share your ambivalence. I probably reject everything Martin was saying, but it was riveting to listen to him and Art.


I also want to lend support to LMH. A consummate professional, she knows how to conduct, structure and present an interview with intelligence, clarity, an understanding of the subject and respect for her interviewees. Unlike someone else I could mention.
Yes, she could add to her Beauty Queen crown as Miss Gullibility and, yes, cow mutilations are funny but it's what I go to C2C for: the strange, the weird, the improbable. And she does do 'real science', too, with properly qualified experts in the field and is equally on top of her brief there. Unlike someone else I could mention.
Case in point was her first hour on Thursday, talking about the history of the earth's magnetic fields and the possibility that another one is imminent.


And from Thursday night, I offer, from the mouth of LMH, words you will never, ever hear from GRN: 'Hearing that made me go and re-read Plato[size=78%].'[/size]

I agree 100%

[NoMoreNoory]

Meanwhile, as a week of Festive Frolics with Uncle Joorch awaits us, I wonder: has Joorch taken to writing the copy on the C2C website himself? This from the 'Christmas Day Night' (in the maestro's own words) show when he will, once again, be there for us on the holiday discussing 'Science Revelations' with Alex Tsakiris:


"He'll discuss what the best research is saying about ‘big picture’ science questions and how science-as-we-know-it is an emperor-with-no-clothes-on proposition."


Apart from the dizzying plethora of grammatically stupid and pointless quotation marks and hyphens, what the hell is an 'emperor-with-no-clothes-on proposition'? It wouldn't have anything to do with The Emperor's New Clothes, would it?


GN & C2C Suck

[PB the Deplorable]

One of my all time favorite Nooryisms was from the time I was innocently watching an Ancient Alien episode, they were talking about ancient Egypt and the various deities add characters - the body of a man and the head of a dog, etc, and whether they were real.  I think they may have been also talking about Medusa, Minotaurs, etc too.

Up pops the Snorge for his expert commentary. 

(This was mentioned on this site at the time, but it's been awhile)

George says something along the lies of 'what probably happened was ''these things were coming down to Earth and saying 'Hey, let's have some fun and made these hybrids", it probably happened just like that'.

"Let's have some fun"

[GeorgieForPresident2216]

George reminds me quite a lot of the gullible, attention-deficit, and attention seeking friend I had in elementary school who was also the kind of kid who would like to pretend he was a radio announcer and act like George on a fake microphone.  Fortunately for that kid, he matured into a capable adult who now is in a position of quite a lot of responsibility and authority.  I wish George had grown up.

"I also want to lend support to LMH. A consummate professional . . . "



A "consummate professional" what?  You didn't finish your thought there.  Maybe I can help.

A "consummate professional laughing-stock?"

A "consummate professional distorter of the truth, particularly concerning anything that involves crops and cattle?"

A "consummate professional at not consummating the sex act with George Noory because sex with profound no-wits is only mildly pleasurable while stranded on deserted islands or before you have to eat them in crashed airplanes atop the Andes?"  I think I found the one you wanted.



"Yes, she could add to her Beauty Queen crown as Miss Gullibility and, yes, cow mutilations are funny . . . "



"Funny?"  Good god, man.  Why on earth-files would you backpedal your rickety unicycle like that on her behalf?  Did she recently visit a weird symbol in your backyard that turned out to be the stoned handiwork of a neighborhood kid with his lawn mower?  Think about what you're saying here.

Her cattle mutilation obsession isn't just "funny. " It makes me laugh so hard it almost loosens my teeth. 

Merely "funny?"  Don't you mean:  "The belly laughs from it mutilated my own appendix?"   Don't you mean:  "It's so upendingly hilarious that my bowlful of jelly broke its bowl?"  Merry Christmas, everyone.

Even the cows are laughing at her -- deep mooing fits of unpasteurized laughter out there in the pasture -- and they're the ones being disemboweled and later fidddled with by Linda Moulton Cow-Howe. 

That's what they call her.  Not me.  I call her "The Cattle Dancing Queen, Sorry, ABBA." 

I also call bullshit on defending her.

The deranged folk who hawk these hoaxes -- and furthermore line their pockets with the filthy-assed proceeds from this hucksterism -- need to be held seriously accountable for their kookery.  Otherwise we're all doomed as a species.

It's one thing to enjoy reading or writing science fiction.  It's intellectually criminal to distort the truth the way this woman gets paid handsomely to do in her monotone cluck on the radio.  I don't mean to say she's handsome.  That would sound misogynist or something. 



"[It's what I go to C2C for: the strange, the weird, the improbable. And she does do 'real science', too, with properly qualified experts in the field and is equally on top of her brief there."



If we've reached an age where science needs the word "real" next to it and then quotation marks to wrap it all up so that the rubes won't be offended, then what does that say about our future? 

It says, "Go ahead and let the religious nuts from east and west launch the nukes, because everybodys wants their own childlike Wizard of Oz-level heaven right now, and it sure isn't the heavens we were exploring.  It's really going to be hell."

Finally, I'm not on here because I love Art Bell.  I'm on here to make fun of George Noory in my spare time.

I once got an email from Art Bell back when he was the host of "Coast-to-Coast AM."

I had written him:

"Don't you think it's wonderfully perverse that you get to use some of mankind's highest forms of technology like radio waves and the internet to peddle essentially Middle Ages-level stuff like witches, goblins, fairies, elves and strange monsters?   I mean, ET's are only recycled elves from the Dark Ages, and Bigfoot is just a recycled dragon, isn't he?  For your purposes, could we live in a better country?"

And he wrote me back a two-letter response:

"FU."

Thanks, Jorch.   Come on, aliens.  Let's have some "real fun."  A creature with a hamster's body and Jorch's head comes to mind.  A HamJorch.

Was that part of a longer conversation?
If not - crossed wires? Somebody else got a response who actually deserved an "FU"?

Alex Tsakiris/Skeptiko Thursday. Very cool. Can't wait to see what mumbles does with that. 

Connie Willis Friday. Are they trying to phase sNoory out? 
Robert "Chip" Coffee?! Oh, goody! This is the interview you were born for, Connie.

Glenda and Eric closed out their Christmas Club account so they could become members of the Coast to Coast Insiders Club.  The thought of participating in an online chat with George Noory made them giddy with anticipation.

FU

[Major Ed Damien]

Was that part of a longer conversation?
If not - crossed wires? Somebody else got a response who actually deserved an "FU"?

"Was that part of a longer conversation?"

Nope.  That WAS the conversation.  You are now in possession of its sum total.




"If not - crossed wires? Somebody else got a response who actually deserved an 'FU'?

Gee, I wonder who. 

Look, I've been needling people for entertainment my whole life.  As a kid, I was mostly known for how I got my chipped teeth and broken nose.  You can kind of get a feel for where the nerve needs to be struck in these kinds of situations.  Then it's "POW!"  They come right back at you.

Now I'm not saying you couldn't be correct -- that it was all a big mistake.  I've never sent an "FU" to anybody -- let alone the wrong person, so I will leave it up to your expertise on these matters.  It seems like an impulse response, though, and most impulse punchers can see their target as the fist travels.

Also, the man IS rather prickly on occasion.  And anybody who'd wear a "South Park" t-shirt in a press photo is certainly capable of such a response. 

I liked leaving the dialogue in its most simple form because it made my teenaged kids laugh.

[Major Ed Damien]

FU

LOL


Dang.  And I wished you a "Merry Christmas!"

Oh, well.  Steal from the witty and give to the dull -- like Robin Hood always said to do.

[WildCard]

I will leave it up to your expertise on these matters.

Keep it up. I'll unleash the smiley faces. I'm not responsible.

You know as much as I do. It just doesn't sound like something anyone would do without cause.

Heh. You'll get no argument from me. But I like FU. It's primitive and minimalist and stuff.

Yeah, it was kinda primitive.  It went along with his whole Middle Ages motif.

He was in a hurry, though, and couldn't really debate the issue. 

I was happy enough that he cared.

Hey, maybe "FU" stands for "Follow Up" in the extra-critically thinking world of talk radio.

Coast to Coast Insiders Myron and Wilma Bumbledorf will be George Noory's in-studio guests this week on Beyond Belief.  Myron and Wilma's names were selected in a random drawing to win an all-expenses paid trip to the George Noory Theater in Denver.  In addition to George Noory, they will have a chance to meet Alex Jones, Richard C. Hoagland and the late Evelyn Paglini.
