... Also, we know from television that syndicated reruns that we stopped watching years ago appear over and over on our TV's because they are supported from international sales.  That Italian or Chinese audience can't get enough of Gilligan's Island or I Love Lucy.  They do not care about ratings in the US - the satellite just beams it down to "earth" and everybody gets what India likes. 

Given that's the situation with TV and the internet is merging the whole scene into one big broadcasting gray mush, that's what we'll have with radio.  The Chinese/Japanese/Indian/European audience will eat up George's soothings and won't catch any of the non sequiturs because they don't translate as such...

That's a scary thought.  There are future immigrants out there right now learning to speak English listening to George Noory and Ian Punnett

   Correct.

LOL...me too...

Just checking in to say HI! I so miss c2c and you guys :(  I have not listened in a long time. Is Noory gone yet?!

Hey there MV - George said he wasn't reading critical sites anymore, thought maybe he was getting bored.  I think he misses the parodies, the satire, the photoshopped images.  And especially the discussions analyzing the contributions of Tom Dumbheiser.

Still getting shoutouts from George though, he endearingly refers to us as 'haters'.

i'm sitting here in lots of pain, pumped full of narcotics and steroids... and laughing exacerbates the pain.  you, sir, owe me my next refill of percocet.


your posts exhibit a certain sensibility that just clicks in terms of how my mind operates.  i absolutely love reading your posts.  in the history of this forum, there have been several who took up the duty of posting C2C broadcast summaries.  you are the only one who stuck with it, and you've always kept it thorough, clever, and entertaining.  i hope you never stop.  you're great.

I second that -- Wouldn't you just love it if Valdez did a counter-summary in contrast to the chocolate-covered turd that Premiere puts out?  I would shell out $$ to get that tidbit in my email.  And remember, he is a SUPERB illustrator/photoshop expert.  Who can forget the time he put Noory words in Hitler's mouth...

   I only tune in on weeknights to hopefully hear somebody else hosting and I'm always disappointed to hear...HIM. The reign of error continues...

Longtime lurker, first-time poster. I was a nightly listener to Coast to Coast since '94.  Noory fucked it all to hell.  I occasionally force myself to listen these days just to see how far down the show has gone.

BTW, I'm a huge Anagrammy fan!

Anagrammy:  If you remember Perry Como (recall his sweaters?), you're like me, an early baby boomer. Unlike Como however, Noory is not just boring, he grates on my nerves.  I can never imagine why so many listeners apparently  believe that Noory "cares," that "we're family."  I wonder what convinced Noory and/or his producers to target the lonely and needy demographic?


Hey Tara.  I remember Perry Como.  Used to watch his show on TV with my mom.  Such a silky voice.
Your are spot on about snoory.  He certainly is a nerve grater.  I may be lonely, but definitely not needy or desperate enough to even be in range of, much less "targeted" by that sewer maggot and his producers!  Nuff said.

Misery loves company,,, :)

Browsing the entertaining posts here today made me want to try to listen tonight. Alas, I went to the c2c web-site to see what's coming up - UFOs & ET Contacts -  ...Potentially enjoyable.

But when I clicked on the name of the guest for the first-hour, instead of a bio, my browser goes to a pseudo-informative web-site for non-genetically modified food. The site boasts it's commercial backers, while also asking for donations. "How far down the show has gone." -Gina

...And yes, I'm aware many of the c2c guests and shows now are just peddling commercial products, services, books or whatever and Noory is happily complicit.  But the blatant disregard to not appear like an info-commercial is distasteful. Nuthin' against non-GM foods btw...

This is so funny and so spot on in capturing George and his show, it's going to be a struggle to add much going forward...

Thank P*Boy.  This plus your avatar says it all!  Fortunately, every night brings a new flavor of Noorey-esque to chortle over and we can't miss a single installment of Valdex.  BTW, I'm starting a Valdez Summary thread so we can keep them in one place for future CoastGabbers to get the real scoop on each show!

Noory sounds a lot like the horse Mr. Ed tonight, calling the guest "Wilbur" :D

Hugo Fitch

I have never heard a show as chock full of nutty goodness as tonight's, with regards to the callers. The Las Vegas UFO story guy was insanely funny. Every single caller tonight is irretrievably out of his or her mind.

I second that --

     I'm humbled, and thankful for the kind words, and for this place that Michael has created, at great cost to his sanity, with it's very special mix of  psychopaths and thinkers, rogues and scoundrels, drunks and artisans, drawn together by the same nagging thought, feeling, idea, like Devils Tower in Close Encounters, that George Noory sucks.

     Jeffery Smith on again attacking Monsantos, the company that makes Roundup.  One of the few things in my garage that actually works.  Then somebody named Wilbur Allen, who has a whole website filled with blurry pictures he calls aliens, and claims to have been abducted and implanted with a device that tells him when to take his camera outside to take more blurry pictures, and he can't have it removed because the doctors told him it would be fatal, and he thinks the aliens are living underground in some...whatever.  Sometimes you just know when you're being scammed.

Something I think we all share here: a love of words used well, as you so ably demonstrate in this passage, Valdez.

The existence of this place, and this group, makes suffering through Noory's utter insensitivity to language, to ideas, to critical thinking almost worth it.  I've been a terrible guest in my failure to thank Michael prior to this.  Thanks for the reminder that this haven is ultimately his creation.

Thanks, Gina - My view is that CoastGab is the new "wanna go for a ride" place.  Since becoming a member here, I have been lead to wonderful websites, great music, new radio programs, and have received absolute therapy for my grieving process over the loss of my personal representative in the paranormal world, Art Bell.   Strangely, and I didn't expect this, I can ask those unanswered questions HERE and we have people in this community with better expertise than the C2C guest!!! 

They used to say, "keep those cards and letters comin' in."  I guess the new information-age version would be, "Keep those posts and tweets comin' in!"  LOL

Noory is such a G-rated baby.
He used the term "hades" instead of hell tonight during open lines calls.
He must have been forced to use that word when he was a little kid.
Noory its a very late night show, so words like "hell" are OK to use.
Hell, even Capt Kirk used the word in a prime time TV show Star Trek episode aired originally in the 1960s, he said "Let's get the HELL out of here!"

He was actually able to pronounce hades?  Holy crap.

Yet he will joke around the office all day about the 'Shroud of Urine', to the point that when he comes on the air to read the story, that's what is imprinted on his diseased brain.

Phony phuck, at least he didn't say 'H-E-Double Hockey Sticks'

Somewhere in the two hours of open lines, I recall something to the affect of HELLO-O  (hello-o=hell)are you.....???????????

Been lurking here for a while now, and I've listened to Coast for years. But, I just had to join CoastGab because I wanted to share a Noory discrepancy I caught during last night's show.

About 6 minutes into Hour 4 last night (July 15), Snorge said...

"I remember seeing The Beatles on Ed Sullivan that Sunday night, and I was saying to myself, "Gosh, their hair is so long.""

Really???  Well, about 3 minutes into Hour 2 on December 8, 2009, Snorge said...

"I didn't quite under[stand]. I was kind of a nerdy kid. You know, I was the kid who loved science. I had a slide-rule in my pocket, I did all those things. And when I saw the same thing you did, the girls coming to school the next day [after first Ed Sullivan appearance], jumping up and down, talking about The Beatles this, The Beatles that, you know I thought they were talking about bugs for a moment. I just didn't know what was going on."

So, which is it, Snorgie Boy?

The man is a pathological liar.

Morgus

Noory is showing signs of early dimentia, so expect his memories to be hazy. :D

Eddie Coyle


    George was probably confusing the Beatles with Vanilla Fudge. And you know he was more likely on Sunday nights to watch Efrem Zimbalist on "The FBI" than Ed Sullivan.


Morgus

Remember, that one of Noory's favorite shows as a kid was on Sunday nights in the early 60s, My Favorite Martian.


Morgus

They often on C2C Friday nights play the theme song to another of Noory's favorite early 60's TV kid shows, Fireball XL-5.
