Anybody else sometimes physically ill from George Noory's voice?

[Gassy Man]

I'm actually not exaggerating or trying to be funny . . . sometimes George Noory sounds like a guy with emphysema who just woke up . . . his voice is all phlegmy and disgusting, and for some reason when he's like that, he has to say a lot of words with "p" sounds that make it even more noticeable . . . and/or he talks about "soup" and the combination of sound and image is almost unbearable.  When he says "Ugh," he does it with such slurry emphasis that one can hear the mucous welling up in his throat, and it actually makes me quesy.  I'm willing to accept I'm being too sensitive unless someone else has a similar gag-worthy experience . . .

[Seamus Capone]

He sometimes makes me feel nauseated too. It has more to do with his unctious delivery, though. His interviews and laughs sound so insincere and "infomercial-like". The repetition (tonight's show sounds like a rerun of a rerun of a rerun) is enough to make one sick too.

[Gassy Man]

That's the funny thing 'cause the delivery is what gets me most . . . though I will say his vapid approach and insincere showmanship are also problems that make it tough to listen to him.

[Morgus]

what makes me sick is hearing the noorites who call in to smother noory with praise and love poems or songs. yuck   

[Eddie Coyle]

    And you would continue to listen because?

    I know it's crazy and illogical of me to suggest this, but how about NOT listening to him. That's what I'm doing and will continue to do until he's gone. Weekends I give a shot, but Monday-Friday is dead to me.

[Gassy Man]

He is inconsistent in his voice crapitude . . . sometimes it's more palatable than others, and probably best when he doesn't talk at all.  There's no way of knowing unless one tunes in, kind of like picking fruit at the grocery store and not knowing how rotten it is inside until one takes a bite . . .

I haven't listened to c2c in years.  Who's g. snoory?    :

[SheilaVG]

Hmm. Isn't that what people say about the Maitraya?

It doesn't make me ill. I sometimes find myself clearing my throat though.

More than that, I just kind of feel sorry for the guy.  He is either in over his head or has some sort of problem, maybe oncoming Altzheimer's. Seriously. And he just is not very smart. There is a difference between being informed and having an opinion and being smart.

The other day I heard him start talking again about the wireless internet and did have to turn him off. 

Makes me really watch myself and make sure I'm not being to repetitive. I think we're all just tired of him.

Hadn't noticed the phlegmy part, Gassy Man, but I bet I will now!

Sorry about that, Scully . . .  perhaps it will help if you just try to imagine George wearing a breath-right strip.

If you must listen, just be happy you don't have to look at him. 

[JustOneFix]

I don't find Noron's voice that nauseating, it's Linda Moldy Bowel's voice that gets me nauseous. She'd be an excellent announcer for the PA system at your local shopping mall or airport.

Does Noory make me feel ill? Absofuckinglutely. But he makes me rather psychologically nauseated to be honest. It's difficult to concentrate while listening to his dumb ass, which led to me ultimately distancing myself from him. I also suspect he is gay. He is rather too flamboyant, but in a creepy, funeral parlor or trenchcoat flashing pervert, type of way.

What is up with him broadcast from 12 feet under the surface of the Earth anyways? He looks like someone that is afraid of the sun and shadows. It's been a topic of conversation that he uses a tanning bed. And it's known he sees shadow rats so he evidently has issues with light.

Next up...Noory identifies the Sand Man??

[DanDan]

Fuck yeah low quality speakers. Don't hear a single bead of snot trying to make its way up the 'ol noorsophagus.

Though if I did, I'd probably came.

Or junior high school.  The flat, bored, pre-recorded sound.  Will JustOneFix report to the principal's office?

   Well, I don't respond to defend GN, but I have listened to many, many radio hosts over the past 40+ years, and, believe me, they all have idiosyncrasies which can be maddening to the listener. GN is no exception. We all look back to Art Bell's days at C2C with fondness and some of us have become jaded in looking at his replacement. I liked Hilly Rose when he subbed, as Hilly had some fascinating Paranormal encounters himself; I refer to the classic "disappearing man" story which had a reiteration years later with Hilly's daughter. Lastly, in reference to George, don't forget the old saying of trading the devil you know for the one yet to be seen (!)

Ugh! You noticed it too! The way he says "program" particularly bothers me. I can almost picture this little slimy, phlegmy creature bursting up out of his throat a la "Alien."

... I also suspect he is gay. He is rather too flamboyant, but in a creepy, funeral parlor or trenchcoat flashing pervert, type of way...

Are we talking about George or Tommy or Ian here?

I'd say that describes all of them.  There is just something off-kilter about a closeted gay man...
