George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

[Lovely Bones]

And this is why I love this forum. Its less about ego and more about community.

Oh God, yes.  Would that other communities where I post (and I use the term loosely) were less invested in ego and more in community.

Great people seem to flock here.  All intelligent, funny, and a bit anti-social.*  My favorite kind of people. 

*Not to be interpreted as negative in any respect, I use this term in a positive way.

Let's hope the adult diapers manifest for George and not for me!  LOL!

Remember, Noory takes his Master Prostrate formula every day to avoid needing diapers.

To Anagrammy:  To answer your question, Noory indicated that he never got as far as dental school.  He was in Pre-dental for the first two years of college, but then switched to broadcasting, i.e. a much easier major.  Pre-dental, like pre-med, involves courses in chemistry, biology, and math, much more difficult than broadcasting where you can B.S. your way through.  Noory doesn't have the guts to tell the truth.  I bet he just didn't have the brains to get into dental school.  As a host, Noory has demonstrated that he has difficulty with scientific concepts.  Can you imagine Noory as a dentist and have him coming at you with a dental drill?  Heaven help me.

We should all call the show like the stern people would call other shows and say "BABABOOEY BABABOOEY"

instead of bababooey we'd yell "GEORGE COINCIDENCES HAPPEN ALL THE FUCKING TIME"

[PB the Deplorable]

Speaking of coincidences, it seems like a week never passed without George Noory telling everyone he was seeing 11:11 all the time, sometimes (heh) twice a day.

I don't listen to the show anymore, but before I finally gave up he had gone months without saying a thing about it.  Seems to me someone going from seeing 11:11 'all thuh time, it's all over thuh place' to not ever seeing it anywhere ever, that itself would be amazing and discussion worthy.

Unless it was always a bunch of crap, the 'I see 11.11' cue card was lost, and the whole thing was forgotten about...

[rangers1919]

Is it just me, or has Noory stopped directly asking whether Angels were the cause of something? Now he asks whether it could have been "intervention", which of course means Angels, but isn't as overt.

[Hugo Fitch]

George about to tell the story of stopping at a green light, only to have a driver run a red, which would have killed him. Intuition! At least that's MY intuition...

[Treading Water]

and now I'm wondering if George really did go to dental school.... and why isn't he a dentist?

Anagrammy

I don't think I'd let him stick his hands in my mouth...Ick.

     Nice of George to sneak in a show between "income-at-home whatever" and "prostrate-mongrel-stud-monkey" commercials.  Mitch Battros on how everything is getting so weird.  Not prone to adding to the fear mongering, George asked him, "is the world dying?"  Skeptic of things paranormal, Richard Wiseman, held firm against George's mind numbing "it's possible, isn't it?" line of so-called reasoning.  Memo to George: "who knows?"  is not a belief system.

BATTROS (making a point about how global warming activists hijacked "regular" environmentalists, discusses "the old days"): And George, people your age, my age, remember going to school without air-conditioning, and we all just got used to--

NOORY (interrupting): I remember when my parents got their first window unit air-conditioner and put it in the living room window in their little house in Detroit, and--

BATTROS (mercifully interrupting): But the point is, George, we all became acclimated to having no air-conditioning because we didn't know any different.

NOORY: But Mitch, old people are dying in this heat and and it seems to me it's tied into End Times and there's just a lot of strange stuff happening.  We'll talk about that when we get back from this break. 

Classic Noory.  And I don't mean "Classic Coast to Coast."

george noory is such a weak fucking suck.  if you performed a surgical procedure on him that prevented him from jumping to conclusions he'd have to get a job pumping gas.  because that's all he ever does during his interviews.  and they're always the same god damn conclusions.  what a human turd that man is

[texaskdog]

I heard he's been known to take bathroom breaks, and his producers just play random comments at random times during the interviews.

And of course the Linda Moldy Howe shows are a 4-hour long bathroom break

If the world is dying, the most visible gangrenous member is Coast-to-Coast. It is a shriveled vestige of its former self and stinks up the airwaves.

I remember when George kept saying, "Something's going to happen, can you feel it?  I can feel it, the listeners can feel it.....my friends can feel it, our guests all say something's going to happen....." ad nauseum.  The only thing good about 9/11 in my mind was that George would finally shut the fuck up because something finally happened.

But noooooo.  Not a month later he was back at it.

I agree with most of your talking points here but I have to defend Noory a little bit. There is the occasional show where he pulls off something that even Art Bell couldn't do. First hour of July 8 was one of those emotional shows when he interviewed the father of a boy who died at age 9. Noory does the interview with no showmanship (Art Bell), Noory just goes along with the story. January 14, Callers regrets was another one of those compassionate shows. I think they're great.

[texaskdog]

I don't think he's that bad, and I'm not a huge Bell fan (sorry).   Bell loves Obama and believes in Global Warming i.e. every time a Bell show comes on I find a disagree with his views.

[b_dubb]

you find a reason to disagree with Art but not with NOory?  oooohhhh boy!?

the interview where he cuts the guest off and goes to open lines while the guest is going on about his son's death?  yeah that was very considerate and heartfelt and ... who the fuck are you kidding

that last bit was rhetorical

[texaskdog]

I disagree with Art.  Noory doesn't have an opinion on anything, therefore I cannot disagree with him.  Actually he does have opinion but if someone has a differing opinion he just nods his head, whereas Ian will at least challenge the guest.

[onan]

Noory doesn't have an opinion on anything,

Noory has lots of opinions. All of them wrong. But he has lots of opinions: Abiotic oil, supplemental "boosting of the immune system is better than vaccinations, no coincidences and more.

To suggest that somehow makes him a more likable host, well maybe to you... I mean my opinion is no more valid than yours. But Bell made late night radio easy to listen to. The best you can say about noory is he is similar to vaseline.

Are you looking for something other than a radio talk show host?
I disagree with Art's views all the time. That doesn't detract from his quality as a radio talk personality. That of which, he is one of the best 

[onan]

That's not cynicism, that is deductive reasoning.

And yeah, General JJ it's a scary position to filter all your info through a personal opinion filter. I think that is kinda the foothold of the dark ages.

Right on the money, General JJ.

[texaskdog]

To be fair my exposure to Art has been every now and then.  I guess I just like to agree with my host's viewpoints.  Of course I do listen to a lot of Alex Jones.

[Morgus]

Tonight on the air when Noory was introducing his main guest, he said "here back again is our guest tonight, first time on coast to coast"
Did that make any sense?

Always look forward to Valdez' Cliff Notes on the show, but this one hits it out of the park for me. I can't read it without multiple chuckles.     

[valdez]

Always look forward to Valdez' Cliff Notes...

     Thanks, Scully.

     So during the news segment George announces that gold has gone "through the roof",  closing yesterday at....eh, wait, George didn't bother to tell us what price it went to.  Ok.  Then he has on physicist, James Mccanney, to talk about that freaky comet Elenin, which George says may be a "sign of end times", and Mccanney goes on a rant about how people are making a big deal out of nothing with this comet.  The irony is lost on George, who invites him back again soon.  Conspiracy theorist, and Italian guy, Massimo Mazzucco said there was no way 19 Arab guys, who didn't know how to fly planes, hijacked the airplanes and flew them (with the exception of United 93) into buildings.  The problem here, as I see it, is that 19 Arab guys, some of whom took flying lessons, hijacked airplanes, and flew them into buildings.  George, again not being one to fear monger, went to the break at the bottom of the last hour with "when we come back I want to talk about the push to exterminate people on this planet." On a lighter note, someone called in and said George Noory was "the most important person" in the world.  There's "crazy", and then there's "bat shit crazy".
