George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

[Mels-hole1984]

Gerontologist - it takes literally 10-15 seconds of "prep" to look that up. An aging specialist btw.

Noory sucks!

Agreed...

I guess he can't get his lies straight, unless Tommy had some reason to lie about screening calls when he participated in a live chat a few years ago.

Some excerpts from the C2C website archives of 2006 posted at http://archive.coasttocoastam.com/shows/2006/03/02.html

Yes PWEB I can. We look for the best questions and opinions that will make the show fun, entertaining, thought provoking and great listening. You all are the smartest listening audience I have heard and really have great questions. Most everyone that calls gets on....with exceptions.

He lies as well as sNoory. They complete each other.

[Immy]

Idiot Jorch is rolling his R's as he says "Petrus Romanus". It isn't Italian you fool, it's Latin.  :

And speaking of Tim Conway Jr's pre-show chat, he's been using sounds bites of Jorch saying "classic" and "split show" in a way that sounds like he's goofing on him. The only thing worse than being a laughingstock at work is not knowing you're a laughingstock.

He calls him "Mini me".

On the studio in Hawaii and the broadcast from there. Sounds like Premiere did not want to pay for the Air ticket and the hotel. That is if there is a studio there. George wants a paid vacation and hotel and free food. But George you already are on a paid vacation. You sleepwalk through the show. And it sounds like it.

Sure sounds like they are mocking the idiot to me as well.
Have a listen

Good.  The "split show fer yoo" thing makes me want to puke.  Like it's a f'ing gift that you aren't capable of handling a guest for 3-4 hours.

[MTB]

I knew George was going to pull a split show as soon as the news about the pope came out this morning. I won't be surprised if an end times grifter gets booked for the "TBA" show on Thursday.

Ugh, it's Monday again; you know what that means:


Still jazzed about Ian or Knapp's Sunday show, you realize it's that paranormal time of night once more and your heart races at the thought of clicking on the radio and hearing that same voice. You're ready to listen in for the long haul - maybe you'll make a cup of tea before curling up on the couch in your favorite blanket. What will it be tonight? UFO's with Knapp? Conspiracies with Ian? You'd be happy to be surprised because those fellows can make a good show out of anything. Better set your alarm a little later as it's going to be a late one.


And then you remember: It's Monday. The weekend is over and once again the great bastard Snorge has come to crush your dreams. Don't bother adjusting your alarm, bedtime is early tonight.


Disappointment.

Really?...I feel like, George is always rude and cuts callers short...

Those are the ordinary callers.  The ones who indicate absolutely no threat to George - who show no indication of needing him to think or converse - get to keep going until the next break.  One time it was just a lady that had a dog barking in the background and George wanted to know if she could have the dog keep it up for awhile.  Riveting.

[somatichypermutation]

I barely listen, I am on the Fine Art stream.  That said, listen for the callers who are too in line with the next question, too prepared, who the guest can respond to without thinking.  That is most callers now, and those are the plants.

[zeebo]

The mind tends to block memories of traumatic events. 

I have a vague memory of an insufferable Noory 10th anniversary show ... I can't remember much ... Apparently in a desperate act of heroic self-preservation, my mind has blotted it out.

Sounds like the numbers lady. Lol...That seems to be the issue here...callers want to cowtow...and real opinions never seem too come through...

Yep. We all knew it he'd do it though, didn't we? He just loves to show how worldly and talented he is. Even if it makes no sense and he's terrible at it.

I listened to a little Hannity today (who I don't like all that much).  The callers just seemed like plants, all of them in that segment or two.  I wonder how prevelent this is.  Hell, why not - for a reason I never got, these shows seem to think they need lots of callers - if they are an inconvenience to the hosts, why not hire plants they can control. 

It seems like a lie if not a scandal.  There might be  a Pulitzer out there for someone investigating this.

[Sardondi]

It was during the excruciatingly awful numbers lady show, when Snoory made the claim. 
His exact words: 'We find out where you're calling from, but we don't screen you.'

Uh, I hate to break it to George, but does he truly think his audience is so stupid as to think a human being is needed to determine that? Not only that, doesn't he realize caller ID pops up as well?

I'd like to ask our radio experts out there whether it is as simple for a radio station calling board to "informally" defeat *67 function (caller ID function) as it is for law enforcement. I'm assuming *67 gives no anonymity to a caller to a radio station, so that, once again, no human interaction is needed to give George the name and address of every caller. Meaning, he's a damn liar.

[jinwicked]

Rest easy, guys. George Norry is monitoring the situation with the Pope for us. Who relies on C2CAM as a primary news source?

I am surprised he never managed to refer to the prophecy as Peter's Patronus . Heavenly father, makes you think?? Hmm...

[PB the Deplorable]

Idiot Jorch is rolling his R's as he says "Petrus Romanus". It isn't Italian you fool, it's Latin...

And we are speaking English and don't roll our R's regardless.

There is something wrong with George beyond just the dumb and lazy.

Funny you should mention that. After a caller laid down a thick layer of praise for Snorge and the show tonight, I decided to send a FastBlast once I stopped gagging. I asked how many planted callers C2C used each night, then inquired as to how I could apply and asked what the pay was.

Ugh, it's Monday again; you know what that means:...The weekend is over and once again The Great bastard Beast,  Snorge has come to crush your dreams....

That almost sounds sounds like prose haiku, familyghost!

Monday
Monday come again,
bitterness returns ever.
Despair. Noory sucks.

Hello how are you?
Could it have been an angel?
Well now that's true too

I stopped fast blasting once I realized I was talking to a wall...

Hello how are you?
Could it have been an angel?
Well now that's true too

Frog sits on lily
Watching sky turn to twilight
Croaks ‘hey George you suck’

 
Summer now arrives
On wing of fleet noble cranes
Crying ‘Tom sucks too’

[Morgus]

I stopped fast blasting once I realized I was talking to a wall...

i think the fastblast feature has been ignored for a couple years now, ever since Noory added the text message feature they use on Friday nights so Tommy has some dumb question to ask Noory to interrupt open lines...

[CrabbyOld Bat]

I stopped fast blasting once I realized I was talking to a wall...

When I've FastBlasted legit questions -- i.e., re contact info on a guest -- Snorge has actually replied on air a couple of times, so I know someone reads the blasts.  However, I never expect answers to blasts that are critical of Snorge or the show; I send those just to vent and/or have a chuckle.

[WickedGame]

This Chinese astrology bitch needs to gather up her pig, monkey, snakes, rabbit, horses, fucking turtles and hit the bullshit road. Noory acting so interested in what this annoying twit is saying is the icing on the charlatan cake.  Noory and his little stuffed tiger.  Is it me or does she sound real mentally ill?

Yeah, I'm behind.

Okay I think a new thread has been born: Noory Haiku. But I'm too sleepy. Someone else must carry on. *Cue Kansas and/or Crosby Stills Nash*.
