George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

Started by MV/Liberace!, April 06, 2008, 01:23:02 AM

Can Noory pronounce anything correctly?

No
No

I LIKE IT!

I think Bill Cosby would approve of the sentiment - though perhaps not the bleeepable words.

Milton Torris said "I could almost crapped my pants" last night in his response to Snoory. LOL. 'Tis all.

Hmmm...in my mind's eye, I can hear George utter:

"You know, this reincarnation thing, according to many experts, it just keeps on happening to some people again and again. Unbelievable! It's like some kind of de sha voo all over again or something like that. It's like repeat episodes of The Twilight Zone, only our repeat lives are in colour, not black and white."

GOD, darlings....help us all. I need a stiff martini.

Don not know where you found it but that is sooooooo funny!

 First hour last night,  GN had Zecharia Sitchin on.  For one thing, I'm perpetually annoyed by Noory's pronunciation of his name,  saying  "Zacharia" -

And then all of the butt-licking going on was galling, but not as much as GN claiming to have read 7 of Sitchin's books.    ;:)   In the interview I did with Noory,  he claimed that he was a "speed reader"  and was able to "pick out the meat"  of any given book.

This from the man who said to Sitchin:  "You capsitalized it all into one book."

I still have a headache from my eyes rolling back into my head during the first hour last night.  I wanted to listen to the entire show,  because I knew it would yield some classic lines,  but in the end I opted for sleep.  Oh well.  Maybe next time.  ......or not.  ;D

I was highly disappointed with the interview, I mean, the great Sitchin and I did not think it went to any depth at all.  "Roll eyes, and Roll eyes"  I forgot, it was just another Noortelligent interview.  He must interview as he claims to read.

By speed reading, he must read the front cover, the back cover, acknowlegement, first page of chapter one, middle of the book, five pages each way, and the concluding two pages.  If it has a bibliography and end notes, that is not even disected.  Yeah, I could read seven books in a hour.  That would not be picking the meat of the book, but the thin shavings.

Does anyone know how we can get Snoory appointed to the House of Lords in the U.K.?That would keep him tied down for most of the week.Most of them are pretty boring IMO, so he would fit in quite well.

Seattle was the latest market to join the new PPM ratings system Arbitron has deployed and - with results for April released yesterday - it's been a complete bloodbath. Noory's local affiliate - KVI - which had been regularly in the top 10 sunk to #27 out of 30 stations (over all time slots, not just C2CAM) - #29 is a high school station and #26 is a mariachi station, BTW.

In LA, Noory's affiliate KFI has dropped from #2 with the old system to #15 with the new system.

A friend of mine who works in radio said with the old diary system people tended to fill out their favorite shows or stations, even if they didn't listen to them ... sports radio and NPR have also taken huge hits across the board. I could completely see that as being the case with C2CAM where people who have drifted away from Coast still dutifully enter them into their diaries because they support the concept of C2CAM even if they don't listen anymore.

It seems a lot of stations and networks are going to be making some major changes in the next few months now that the rules of the game have changed. Perhaps this could be Noory's death knell?

Nboy

Honestly, I think it may be the end of C2C as we know it. If not, I hope Noory gets his ass kicked out the door. Radio itself, as we know, is changing. I don't know how talk radio is fairing in your parts, but its pretty much being regulated to A.M. around here. Hell, even the majority of radio stations are becoming a thing of the past save a few dinosaurs that refuse to die. Every station I used to listen to has been taken off the air or completely reformatted to some godawful monstrosity of either hip hop, Spanish, country or religious in the last two or three years. There are no oldies stations, and only one classic rock which is slowly beginning to incorporate modern B.S. The only thing I still listen to at all is Car Talk and Wait Wait Don't Tell me, with the occasional N.P.R. news cycle. We have a decent local talk radio station, but half of the time they are doing a live broadcast from some terrible local business which results in 40 minutes of a 50 minute show talking about the product they are pushing.

I am considering forking out a couple hundred dollars on a shortwave to listen to some of the Euro channels. I have tried podcasts but it doesn't feel the same. Even if I couldn't pick up and intelligible channel at least I could entertain myself looking for numbers stations.

Who is the bigger fool?  The man who admits he doesn't know, or the man who can't admint he doesn't know?

George doesn't dissapoint. 
I believe it was the Thursday night show with that Irish Doom and Gloom fellow.  ( Don't get me started on how George is the absoulte KING of Doom and Gloom  --  He is just crest-fallen if some type of distruction doesn't take place. )

Anywy,  This Irish guy asks Gerorge if he knows what a "Optical Clensing Technition" is.   Well, George couldn't let a little thing like knowledge get the better of him and with just missing a little bit of a beat GN replies boldly, "YES! Of course I do."

Now, anyone on this planet that was listening would be able to tell that GN had no idea what an "Optical Clensing Technition" was, and for the life of me I cannot imagine why anyone would lie about something like that.

Worst, GN was stupid enough to think that there would be no follow up questions.  He got caught in his lie.

To me that is pretty much the litmus test.  There is no bigger fool, and really I mean fool, who cannot admit to even the most trivial lack of knowledge.

Its really quite pathetic.

You should give an Internet Radio a shot. I bought a Grace 1000 last Oct and LOVE it. This particular Radio requires a wireless access point/router. There are others that have a jack for Ethernet connections. I been in Electronics for 35 years and have had my fair share of shortwave radios. Internet Radio is far better and no fading. Do some research, you wont regret it. I also highly reccamend an Internet Radio that uses the Reciva portal. Just a thought!

Signed copies are only $25.00 - which is the price listed on the book jacket.

Shows you what a desirable tome it is and what a "hot" commodity"  Noory is.  (burp)

Anyone know where I might get some Noory autographed toilet paper?

I'm sure that would sell better than any book he could write, or read, and would actually be useful.

Dixie Butcher

Ages ago,  I'd given up on Noory/Danheiser ever attempting to correct any of their bad/annoying/stupid on-air habits. I figured that  after,  what?  7 years  SHUDDER  of them reading & hearing criticisms for the same.  damn. things.  all.  of.  the.  time. , there was no Hope for Change at all. 

But this last week I've noticed a couple changes.  Earlier tonight,  George took the last caller,  then immediately told her that he was putting her on hold because he,   "didn't want her to lose her place in line." 

One:  he's been greeting each caller by name, and no longer pretends the calls are unscreened, or that  he knows nothing of the content of their query or comments.

Two:  He's no longer pretending that he is technologically unable to hold a caller over during commercial/news breaks. 

I'd love to know why,  after all these years,  he and TD have finally decided to change their ways?  It can't be because of listener feedback - I can only surmise that somebody they really respect must have suggested it to them.   Somebody whose butt-pudding GN would eat buckets of in hopes of some 'greatness'  rubbing off on him.   

But who would have that much clout?   Can't be any network bigshots,  cuz they don't listen to the show close enough to notice such things.  Or so I'm told by people personally familiar with the inner workings of Clear Channel & Prem.  Radio...

I can see Ian or George maybe trying to politely & surreptitiously slide it into a conversation with him during a brief encounter at some meeting or convention they might both attend.  I kinda doubt either of them would do that, but maybe.  GK would be more liable to, too,  I'm guessing.   BUT!  Even if they did, I'm not so sure he'd do it on their prompting.

Heh heh.  Now, off all of the guests & guest hosts,  he spends the most face time with Linda MH.  The other night he accused her of "partying"  a lot.   I could see her saying something to her sober,  but I'd rather imagine her with a slight buzz and giving him a hard time about all sorts of things.  Not that he'd ever listen to a woman!!! :o, but I do like the thought of her bustin' his balls after she'd had a couple of beers.  (which I'm sure is GN's  idea of "partying".  Have ya heard him talk about drinking?  What a pussy.   The way he talks about drinking reminds me of Aunt Bea from the Andy Griffith Show. )

......anyways... two small steps forward.  But...

he still insists on naming segments of the show - like the always laughable  "Floating Format"  ;:) we're now enjoying.  But hey,  that he's capable of learning anything new at all ... well...  I didn't think it possible!   I got an especially big "roll eyes/ha ha"  the other night when Linda MH was subjected to that - going into the last hour of open lines,  he was compelled to inform us  that segment is called,  "Conversations With Linda". 

Oh yeah!  He just reminded me of another little 'thing' he does:   Whenever he talks about how the attitude of the public at large seems to have changed - whether it's  'uptight',  'agitated',  'fearful' - it doesn't fuckin'  matter, you know he's referring to the same damn thing!  whaddevah!  - have y'all noticed he always says, 
"Have ya noticed in the last,  ... oh...  6 months...  how it's changed?"

GAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!

For 7 fuckin' years the last 6 months

god-dammit!   I just missed  having a Sylvia Browne/Evelyn Paglini moment!  In other words, predicting something that is inevitable.

Actually,  Sylvia often predicts things after they happened,  so,  I guess I still win.  :D

I wanted to predict that George was gonna start requesting women to start singing  "Happy Birthday" to him - and, more specifically,  like "Marilyn Monroe".  But I was busy typing that last  post and that damn Sunny from Hawaii snuck in under my radar.

Bless her heart,  Man! was she hammered.  And I don't mean tipsy, either.  I heard it (the singing) coming,  too, cuz when he first said 'hello',  he slipped right into that voice he uses when he's sleazin' up the broads.  I'm sure Tommy left him a note on the screen saying she had a sexy voice  (not really, but it was kinda flat & breathy like Marilyn's was...) & she wanted to sing at him.

He prolly left out the part about her bein'  stinko.

After she sang, he thanked her and then asked,  "Did you used to sing that as a little girl?"

BBWWWAAAAAAAAAHHH!

George just said  "They lied!  They lied!"  and spouted a bit more vitriol...   

Y'all!  he was totally,  genuinely worked up!   ???  &  :D   Talkin'  about the company that bought out An. Busch, and how they'd promised not to change anything, but then they did - and MAN! WAS HE HOT!

It's about time he got mad because somebody else lied to him!

It was funny and also just plain weird.  For like,  10 seconds, he sounded just like a regular Joe down at the bar.

Weird as hell.

And funny  cuz he lies his ass off all the time.

God,  now bumblebutt is pretending like one of them Nigerian email spams he got is real and he's gonna do it & be rich.  Trying to bait his not so bright listeners  into thinking he's sincere and trying to string them along.
;:)  ;:)  ;:)

What a git.

Atchillee,  he just had a couple minutes left - no time to play with callers.  I guess he just did it to entertain himself.  It worked.

George is a fake piece of crap. His "anger" is scripted. All he cares about is living in LA, cashing paychecks, and pushing shitty products.

In anticipation of the free Streamlink thing with "Somewhere in Time" episodes coming up, I checked out the other features of this probably rip-off Streamlink and found these two major incentives:

http://www.coasttocoastam.com/pages/streamlink
Quote#  Live Chat: Twice a month, we present live chat sessions, featuring a one-hour dialogue with George Noory, and a Q & A with a favorite C2C guest. Plus you get access to transcripts of past chats.

# Member Private Email to George: Finally! Streamlink members have insider access to George Noory via a private email system. George often uses listener emails in presenting the show... use this new system to communicate your thoughts, ideas and opinions to George as he makes each night's broadcast.

Live chat with Snoory? Transcripts of other people chatting with Snoory??? Jesus, are there really people in this world who pay actual money for this? You'd be better off chatting with the wall for free...

Read this about George's "date":

Oh my god, he told the animal lover guest last night in the first hour, "Martine, you don't know this story, but once I was on one of my bachelor dates with a woman and you don't have to own a pet as far as I'm concerned, 'specially if you can't take care of it, but uhhh I do think you gotta love an animal and we were talking and I asked her about animals and she went 'OH I HATE ANIMALS! I HATE DOGS, I HATE CATS!' I paid the bill and I got up and left! Did I do the right thing?"

Can we say FISHING FOR COMPLIMENTS?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!!??!

So George Noory sucks, and he makes up stories? Who says this stuff? I think he is getting Alzheimer's.

Also with the animal lady- did you notice the caller that started out "Hi George, How're you doing?" to which he responds "Sure thing".  The caller then went on to ask a question regarding a Savannah.  Animal lady responds several times that this is a manufactured animal, a crossbreed between a domestic cat and a serval.  After the caller is gone, George, in his infinite wikiwisdom, informs us that a Savannah is a hybrid between a domestic cat and a serval.
George! Stop googling yourself and LISTEN!

I've seen that video before too and I think its hot. Think Airyn ever did anything like this for Art during their internet dating days?

Last night, there was a Canadian caller, whom I am CERTAIN George and Tommy planted. The guy started out saying "I used to hate your show, but now I love it. One of the things that has impressed me all along is the courtesy and the dignity with which your staff treats the callers. Your screeners (PLURAL) are very professional. I'm very impressed with that also. I've been wanting to get through and tell you everything."

George's pearls o wisdom:
"We have a simple rule here and that is to treat everyone the way we want to be treated (Golden Rule, eh?). No more. no less. And if you can do that and concentrate on doing that even in your own life, you'll find that it opens up incredible opportunities and people will begin to say, that's all you have to ask for. That's fair. You know what? That's all you have to ask for."

He's talking to you, creeps! You're obviously all losers who haven't obeyed the Golden Rule and haven't had opportunities open up because of your opinion of George.

EvB

QuoteAnd if you can do that and concentrate on doing that even in your own life,

And just who the fucks life WOULD you apply this rule to.  It's basic grammar George. [You should] do unto others . . . .
