Again, shame on George Knapp. I usually listen to Coast with bemusement but some nights the fraud perpetrated by guests and host on a naive audience is too much and gets me worked up.

This doctor tonight, a Dr. Barry Tapp, is a total fraud and/or total loon. He wants to be taken as a serious scientist using science to investigate the paranormal. He talked at length about a long investigation of a home near the Manson Murders house on Ciello Drive in Los Angeles. Dr. Trapp claims that this home is so active with paranormal activity that 19 ..... NINE ... TEEN .... NINETEEN TIMES he personally has had to be taken to the ER at Cedars Sinai Hospital he became so sick. If I were the host my response to this would be 'Doctor, two things come to mind, you are either the world's biggest hypochondriac or you're a liar, which is it?' Knapp like Noory tacitly encourages these charlatans and loons to continue in their charade or mental illness. Tapp tries very hard to sound very reasonable and not at all a kook - the doctor doth protest too much. He explained that he doesn't think this particular home is haunted by evil spirits/ghosts, not sure why since he gave many case studies where poltergeists according to him were involved. According to the doctor the odd happenings in this house are caused by an unusually strong 'geo magnetic force',  why some people such as himself are more affected in a house like this is they possess 'bio optimal amplifiers', he doesn't explain where these are in the body or what they are. What he also doesn't explain is how or why the glass of water that was thrown directly at his face causing him to duck happened. There are many objects in a house, shelves and tables filled with objects, how does the strong 'geo magnetic force' zero in on a glass of water and propel it at a human target and why? 

He engages in what all Coast's pseudo-scientists do, he drops names of real scientists, vaguely refers to some past experience with important university or government laboratories, all to make himself look more legitimate. He also claims that he does 'hard medical science', he has invented and filed several patents for medical devices, one he described that can diagnose diseases within the body non-invasively just with some interaction with skin surface. For some reason he's having a hard time finding anybody to manufacture the device.  ;D

He also claimed that current research is finding that our memories are stored outside the brain, outside the body, they are stored in a 'remote zero point field'.

Obviously the man is a complete kook or fraud artist but not to Millennial Mike who has quickly turned into Thomas from La Jolla, he calls in to tell every guest that their work is fantastic and he's read their work, which I don't doubt.  Thomas and Mike are either morons or about as gullible as human beings can be. Absorbing and retaining information doesn't make one smart, critical thinking is the essential part of intelligence.

.... and his second guest is just as bad. A doctor who is an expert in ghosts and such. He just presented the case study of 'Linda'. Linda was in her living room and suddenly heard the loud banging of pots and pans emanating from her kitchen, she entered the kitchen to find a mysterious large letter 'M', he didn't describe if the 'M' was smoke/vapor floating in space or projected or painted on a wall. A real scientist, such a thorough investigation. Anyway, 6 months later, Linda is diagnosed with bone cancer - Multiple Myeloma ... *dun* dunnn* dunnnnnnnnnnnn* ...... M.

LOL now why couldn't this spirit who visited Linda just have picked up a pen and paper and written Linda a note that she should see a doctor immediately, if you can bang pots and pans and create the letter 'M' to appear out of nothing then surely you can write a simple note. So what can we conclude, when decent people die they turn into total assholes who enjoy scaring their families and in Linda's case keeping information from her that possibly could save her life.

#393
shame on George Knapp, he's got another dippy broad masquerading as a medium, right now she's taking calls and going through the standard medium/psychic chicanery ........ 'squeezing of the hand, i keep seeing this' - the caller had described her dying husband or father, of course when somebody is dying it is very common to hold their hand.  then to another caller 'dog and a shoe, does this mean anything to you?' the caller doesn't bite on this so she immediately switches streams and substitutes 'cat' for 'dog',  a very high percentage of people own a dog or cat, the caller affirmed she has a cat which of course gives the fraudster the opportunity to subtly claim her powers are at work 'yes, the cat, what I was hearing, good' . it's amazing how many people of normal intelligence fall for this bullshit.

Knapp is better than this. I got the feeling as the interview proceeded he was regretting the booking.

Ian Punnett has some scruples, he doesn't let these people just claim anything they wish to claim - the other night he quite brilliantly cross examined a caller who kept asserting he was a medium and in contact with spirits/demons, Punnett did it politely.

This isn't an original thought on my part but it's a question for all these self proclaimed spiritualists and paranormal researchers - why if these spirits exist and communicate with living persons regularly why is it always in such vague and barely intelligible cryptic ways? why wouldn't the spirit of a deceased human just speak in a clear voice to the living person he is communicating with 'Kathy? It's Bob, your dead husband here. I just wanted to let you know that there is an afterlife and I am doing well. Please share this information with our family and friends. People worry so much about death and dying, let them all know that there is nothing to fear. And for god sake, you fucked that asshole Frank less than 3 months after I passed, that hurt, I know you were lonely but still.'

as Ian correctly stated, all of it comes from popular media, movies/tv/books. and it's the same with the UFO crowd, authors and illustrators 100 years ago began describing and drawing saucer shaped spaceships and when the UFO craze began in the middle of the last century what do you know every description of a UFO sighting matched these conceptions of authors and illustrators.

The absolute greatest weaver and babbler of way out there conspiracy theories was a guy from Toronto called 'The Spaceman' whose show was called 'A View from Space', it aired on Saturday or Sunday nights. There's no way he could have written his show, it was 3 hours of just him alone doing free style conspiracy story telling. I was amazed how he could cobble together this shit week after week. I forgot about him, hadn't listened in a couple of years, went looking for him on the web, he died, pretty young too. Turned out he was just a weird off air radio station tech employee and people around the station noticed how weird he was and somebody suggested giving him a few hours a week on the air because it was so off the wall. He lost the show before he died, he got into the Jewish thing, and it sparked a big controversy.

He actually got me reading more history because he'd be talking about these conspiracies that date back centuries and millennia and I knew he was full of shit but I did want to know whether there was any truth at all to what he spewed.
#395

i got in late so missed Hoagie's show, tuned in to Coast, Lisa Garr ....... nope, she and the imbecilic sasquatch hunter are unlistenable.

so I put on Clyde Lewis lol  what a gasbag he is. I swear he uses a web generator tool to come up with topics -

Column 1 -  Current event in the news
Column 2 -  Shadowy elite organization
Column 3 -  A scientific law/theory
Column 4 -  Well known scifi movie or TV show
Column 5 -  Historical event
Column 6 -  Religious scripture
Column 7 -  Personal event in his life

Click 'Generate Tonight's Show Topic' button and voila

whatever comes up he spend 3 hours riffing on -  dude just babbles on and on building imaginary conspiracies, it takes some skill but you can tell he has no real idea what he's talking about unlike a Steven Quayle who is batshit nuts but he's put a lot of time and research into his 'craft'. Clyde just wings it.

The Coast guests are as hapless as the host and producer. One of the stations I listen to Coast on plays old Noory hosted Coast shows on the weekend leading into the live show. Last weekend I listened to part of a show that originally aired soon after the 2016 presidential election - the guest was one of these financial know-it-all types and he was adamant, more than adamant actually, he told the audience to sell all their stocks, a huge crash was coming and if you don't listen to him you'll be very sorry. 

of course he was completely wrong and had anybody taken his advice they'd have lost out huge. they're never right about anything -  politics, economy, technology and most of all about 'disclosure' -  going back to the 90's every UFO 'researcher' that's ever been on Coast has said disclosure is just around the corner, they have been preparing us and it will be any day now. Hoagland is kook science's 'Larry the Trombone Player' - anybody remember him from The Gong Show?
#397

haha a black gentleman named Roland called in to ask the fraud peddling guest a question, he began by recounting how he found Coast and how much he loved Art Bell, he said 'I wouldn't be calling in if not for Art Bell', Jorch chuckles and adds humbly 'I wouldn't be here if not for Art Bell'.  Roland has no sense of humor, he carries on 'I like the guests that Coast has'.  It was very conspicuous that he didn't say a word about George, he obviously thinks Jorch is a shoddy replacement for Art.

this guest is pathetic, he glommed on to some old man in Germany who is a modern Nostradamus according to him, has been in direct contact with extra-terrestrials since he was 5 years old and has thousands of photos he took himself of flying saucers. George who rarely questions a guest with any objectivity or skepticism did ask the guest about this German guy's ex-wife who claimed that he was a total fraud, he built elaborate models of UFO's which he then presented as real photographs of UFO's and a son who also says he's full of shit.  The guest's response was evasive and of course Jorch let it go.

#398

the commercials are as bad as the show.  Jorch read a commercial for the conservative TV channel Newsmax, the tag line read by Jorch lifelessly 'Newsmax .... It's great to watch'.  I wonder how long it took them to come up with that slogan. Maybe it's Jorch's creative genius and he added the slogan on his own.

then there's the snake oil Carnivora, a woman who sounds like every dingbat who calls in to Coast, retells us how she coughed 24 hours a day, for years, she went to THREE different pulmonologists and they all told her not to do anything. Of course they did, because there was nothing wrong with her other than being a nutbag who invented a cough for herself.  She turned to Carnivora and within a week her cough disappeared, placebo obviously.

I'd read this as a "yes."

"George closed the program with his rendition of Edgar Allan Poe's The Tell-Tale Heart."  From 2017.

https://www.coasttocoastam.com/show/2017/10/31

Of course, Jorch has others write "his" books.  Maybe he also has "ghost" speakers, and still claims it's his rendition. ;)

yeah i am pretty sure it is him, he put some effort in and then a sound guy worked some magic with some knobs and sliders.

he should retire from Coast and just read stories 'Scary Stories with George Noory','Bedtime Stories with George Noory' 'X-Rated Stories with George Noory' and put them on CD s- would love to hear George in his Telltale Heart voice acting out porn scenes.

That's George, reading the Telltale Heart?? Heavens, I always thought that was a professional job.

hmmm ... i wondered if it was him or not but decided even though the acting sounded very professional it was George in better days and some post-production work to make it sound better.

anybody know for sure if that's him reading Telltale Heart?
#401

lol that Tell Tale Heart reading is literally the only decent thing the man has done in his career.

not even Jesus Christ ever time traveled into the past to change things. 

his voice on that recording sounded much more professional and deeper, he literally is the real Ted Baxter, a total blithering idiot with a good voice for radio.
#402

hahaha I love when even his guests, who aren't the sharpest knives in any drawer, are stupefied by George's idiotic questions and comments.

Tonight's guest is an 'expert' on voodoo, several times she's been caught off guard by something Jorch has blurted out that makes no sense or is just flat out retarded. He asked her, like a 6 year old would ask 'Can you change the past with voodoo?' She couldn't process this stupidity, took a couple seconds and then asked 'What? Can voodoo change the past is the question? uh .... no.' hahaha I can't believe even he asked that - there are many many crazy religions in this world with crazy beliefs and I don't think any of them include time travel into the past to make changes. 

#403

I like that Richard Syrett plays songs from Canadian bands as bumpers. The Arkells sound good, i guess there are some < 40 people who still play real music.
#404

Davenport is a human time machine but you can only go back to 1950. I enjoy his vignettes.

'This is a very compelling one George. A young gal named Peggy from Centerville, Iowa that's about 200 miles due east of Milltown sent this one in. She and her beau had been visiting friends in Horners Corners and on their way home had stopped to do a little necking at a popular spot behind a ridge 3 miles north of Route 17. Peggy was enjoying what she called cunnilingus or something like that, I don't know the kids' lingo these days, but as she was involved in this cunnilingus she gasped when she saw a series of very bright orange lights in a diamond shape hovering above the ridge which would shift from left to right and this lasted for a good 3 or 4 minutes, and then they were gone. They then finished their cunnilingus and returned home. Quite strange George, a good report from Peggy there.'
#405

whenever I hear those 'A Place For Mom' commercials my answer to the problem is 'the attic'

Jojo do you live in something like this?

#406

He was never any good but he's definitely showing signs of deterioration on the air. Last night he really struggled reading a commercial and he has trouble finding words more these days. Of course some of this is also laziness, not being prepared or motivated to do a good job.

His first question to a guest is always so predictable and sets the tone for what will be a trademark blank Noory interview. 'When did you get interested in < fill in the blank >?' 

George: Tonight's guest is Gary Munjack, he's got ALS and is raising awareness about it and has a new book out about his experience with this devastating disease. 

George: Gary when did you get interested in having ALS?
#407

well the second guest is a male and babbling woo with the best of the ladies, definitely low T, Jorch is Robert Conrad tonight. They should bring back those battery commercials with radio tough guy George Noory in a guinea t-shirt daring you to knock the battery off his shoulder. That's what society is missing these days, real men, radio tough guys like George Noory.

A listener called in to gush about Tom from La Jolla. Jorch gasped 'He's a genius!' Ol' Thomas from La Jolla's life has to be complete now. His obituary will have that quote from nationally syndicated talk show host George Noory in it for sure. 

Personally I prefer Walter from Chicago, he tells it like it is 'Ya know all dat religious stuff is just fairy stories right, ancient people dint know much about science or history so dey made dem stories up. I got nuthin against it, some people need dat to get by but it ain't real.'
#408
oh how lucky we are tonight, it's Twofer Tuesday, we get 2 more ladies who have conferred upon themselves special extra sensory powers. They see colors instead of numbers! Jorch told the ladies that when he thinks of the number 8 he sees black. One of the ladies squealed 'You have it too George!' Yeah, it couldn't have anything to do with George associating 8 with the magic 8 billiard ball.

at least there was some respite from these inanities when Jorch took a call for the ladies, another lady who has it altogether told us that metals are sentient beings and come from another dimension. 

Jorch peppering the conversation robotically as always with lots of 'interesting' 's and 'good take' 's. Jorch only recently discovered the word 'take'. He's one hep cat.
#409

I'm not being sexist just objective. The male Coast guests are grandiose blowhards, the female guests are all crazy cat lady glass menagerie level fantasists, I find many of them sad.

I lasted 10 minutes tonight, the guest was another woman who professes to have some kind of magic talent, this one with past lives regression. like most Coast guests she tries very hard to sound scientific, she must have referred to 'case studies' 5 times in the short time I listened, any story a kook has to tell is a 'case study'.

Anyway she described a woman who came to her for help, the woman literally was a crazy cat lady, who had been evicted and charged criminally over her herd of cats. Our guest took the woman on a past life journey. Wow, much wow, it turns out this woman was a member of a cat cult in ancient Egypt! To get her over the obsession with cats our guest wackadoodle guided her client into a meeting with the High Priest of the ancient Egyptian cat cult.

And Noory sits there and encourages and validates these frauds night after night, year after year.

I love Hoagie's round tables, everybody enabling each other's delusions.

Radio and Podcasts / Re: Richard Syrett
February 09, 2020, 01:59:20 AM

lol what a terrible guest. another in a long line of libertarian kooks who thinks he can legally opt out of the Constitution and doesn't have to pay taxes.  Ask Wesley Snipes how that works out.



#412
Open phones, time for George to get up close and personal with his listeners. He's a man of the people.

An old gentleman named Ed called in, he's 86. Of course Jorch asked him his age.

then this

George: What did you do for a living?

Ed: I was an electrical systems engineer.

George: Did you have to go to school for that?

Jorch thinks everybody is like the crackpots and scam artists he features on his show, you don't need a degree from an accredited college, you just 'research' stuff on the Internet and read some books. 



#413

Mr. Lobo mentioned the death of Kirk Douglas this week at the age of 103 and named some of his big movies. Jorch added 'He was in the movie The Champion. I want to rent that one.'

George thinks it's 1985 and he's going to the video rental emporium.

George: Hello is this Blockbuster? I got your number from the phone book.

Blockbuster Guy: Yes it is. Blockbuster Cement Supply. What can I do for you?

George: I'd like to reserve the movie The Champion with Kirk Douglas for Friday night.

Blockbuster Guy: Sir we don't rent movies we're a cement company.

George: Oh, by any chance do you have the number of the movie rental Blockbuster store?

Blockbuster Guy: I think they went out of business 20 years ago.

George: Jeeze.

#414

I don't mind Mr. Lobo but you know Jorch does zero show prep so we're going to get the same interview he's done several times with the guest. It's 50/50 whether Rod Serling gets mentioned which of course always is followed up by Jorch tellling everyone he's a friend of Billy Mumy's.

Even by Coast's low standards I don't get the point of having Peter Davenport on, his UFO reports are plain stupid, nobody who reports an incident has a cell phone which is hard to believe in this day and age. Pete sounds more decrepit every week, tonight he described something 'it's like putting on a freshly starched shirt for a Friday night barn dance George' LOL i still think this entire thing may be an elaborate inside joke.
#415
The second guest, another bored hausfrau from the Midwest babbling woo nonsense - she is humble, she says she merely helps 'scientists' who study the afterlife, she is only a researcher and a medium. she and George discussed some man named Victor who according to both these nitwits is on the cutting edge of afterlife research. like George last night with his appeal to authority/expertise in Edgar Mitchell the astronaut this woman tells us this Victor character is legit because he is a lawyer. i always laugh at people who are impressed by lawyers, it's about the easiest professional school to get into, there are many law schools who will admit anybody with a pulse who can come up with the tuition fee.

#416
nah, the Democrats aren't that delusional, they impeached Trump as a political strategy, just to drag him and the country through the mud and they're so stupid they thought some of it would stick to Trump and  of course predictably the mud ended up all over them and Trump ends up with his highest approval rating since winning the election. they're done, independent voters won't support them after this dumb charade. Only a serious economic downturn could hurt Trump now, or some idiot move by him.  He needs to use some common sense.
#417
he begins his little newscast 'As I predicted President Donald Trump was acquitted on charges of impeachment'

now he's Nostradamus, or in his case Nostradumbass - like there was anybody on the planet who thought Trump was going to be found guilty by 2/3 of the Republican controlled Senate.

#418
LOL he's such a fucking clown, the same stories, the same bullshit over and over. He just told his guest about the mass consciousness intention experiments he conducts live on Coast when there are hurricanes or other natural disasters. Jorch lol taking credit for pushing hurricanes away from land and without any shame whatsoever proclaims 'we're successful 9 times out 10, it works'

could he be that simple that he truly believes he and his sad sack listeners are controlling the weather? I don't believe he does, I believe bullshit just pours out him without any thought about anything - he's basically a robot, a robot of very low intelligence.

#419
Love this guest the dude from SETI, Jorch is disseminating his usual idiocy and SETI guy is telling Jorch politely he's full of shit. Jorch claims that the old astronaut Edgar Mitchell heard from high ranking government people that ET's had visited Earth, Jorch tells the guest that's great evidence. SETI guy tells him it's terrible evidence, it's hearsay and  the guy being an astronaut isn't really important. Jorch counters this with 'why would somebody try to trick him by giving him false information?' Then Jorch says the best evidence for extra terrestrials is that we as a species, our greatest scientists, don't know how we got here. SETI guy laughs and tells Jorch there is a ton of evidence everywhere on the planet that records the evolution of life. True we don't know for certain how the the first building blocks of life started but the prevailing idea of life beginning in some warm pond teeming with chemicals is supported by scientists everywhere.

And a moron in a radio studio in Los Angeles believes life began by little green men who landed here billions of years ago and still visit every now and then.

#420

He's pushing his traveling paranormal gong show 9 months ahead of time. Him and Tommy are Barnum & Bailey. Same cities as always Asheville NC and Everett WA - must be something in the water in those two towns or maybe just a higher than average population of old gullible lonely people.

Tommy books a local jazz band for these stops, guarantee you they get paid ZERO - Tommy tells them how much the exposure is worth and they should be paying him and George but they're nice guys and that won't be necessary.
