George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

I logged off. Clearly my 9 art bell related questions got scrapped and my IQ fell 9 points in the last 40 minutes. I need an aspirin

george noory: an alien is nothing more than us

what a nooron. I bet he thought he sounded brilliant when he said it. Too bad it makes no sense at all.

[PB the Deplorable]

Noory just doesn't want to pick up a tab

Just curious do all the hosts of the show talk off the air? Ever get everyone together for happy hour or dinner?

george noory: Not really very rarely we all seem to do our thing

I wonder what George's 'thing' is

[PB the Deplorable]

Huh? I've never once heard Noory sit there and shut the fuck up during one of his "interviews".

What I meant was George isn't listening, isn't interested - sure he will randomly interrupt when the guest is about to say something interesting, and will read another cue card when he senses a pause, but he isn't really engaged.  Unless it's some quack medical topic or he's talking about himself.

George,How is Dr. Leir doing?

george noory: Roger is holding on..he was very ill for a while but appears to be rebouding

I had not realized Dr. Leir was ill. Isn't he rather elderly? Seems I recall him saying something about his prior experiences (perhaps something about the Korean War) which made me think he was well into his 80's. I hope he is not very ill.

I enjoy Dr. Leir's spots, and am particularly impressed with his finding that most of the implants are in essence broadcasting. Even more weird is his discovery (if I understand him correctly) that some implants have a wavelength which means they are broadcasting to "deep space". I hope I have this right.

I know nothing technical about his claims, but it sounds to me that his discoveries are earth-shattering if true. I've never noticed that he has been debunked. Has there ever been an effective attack on his claims? If not, it would seem the implications of his research are just enormous.

Noory is on a mission (from god) to dumb down the world. At this task he's a real genius.

Sorry to disappoint, but I have done rather extensive research into Dr. Roger Leir, and though he seemed like a nice guy on video, he is 1) now certifiably mental similar to John Leir or (most likely) 2) found it much easier to make money as a new-age charlatan.

I have exposed and debunked this guy previously, though it may have been on another forum. My details are in another state on another computer, but I've accessed a few things just now to get one started.

This thread is probably not appropriate for a discussion of the snake-oil sold by Roger Leir, but I can fill in details in a Roger Leir specific thread.

Insofar as his age is concerned, he graduated from the CALIFORNIA SCHOOL OF PODIATRIC MEDICINE AT SAMUEL MERRITT COLLEGE in 1964. Assuming a "normal" age progression through college, he would have been ~26 years old upon graduation (1964) making him about 74 currently.

His "recent" medical condition (December 2011) was curiously related to an infection in his foot, which spread to his abdomen. Mr. Leir was notably a bit histrionic describing his condition; though I don't have his medical records (anyone?), my initial diagnosis would have been somewhat less dire than Leir let on.

I'll leave it at that for now, unless folks would like to know a little more about Roger.

All I hear about his book or "books" is they are a steaming pile of cow dung.

whose books??? George obviously can barely read much less even attempt at inscribing his name... god forbid there ever exist a "tome" penned by George...

Having been raised Catholic, most likely he'd have been familiar with the Catholic version of "Dick and Jane" which was "John and Jean."

Really no "dick" in catholic school??? Didn't you have to deal with priest's n stuff?? I guess it makes sense actually the kids had all the "dick" they could handle already...
RIMSHOT!!

Yes, no "dick" in catholic school.  But t'was a different story outside the school, beyond the eyes of priests 'n stuff.  How else can one end up a dickhead like Noory?

....(*Whereupon follows a pretty convincing bitch-slapping of Dr. Leir.*)....

*sigh* Are there no straightforward, honorable men left? Your info is just the kind of stuff I'd like to know. And although I'm disappointed to hear it, I can't say I'm surprised. But just because Leir is a podiatrist and not an M.D. (as I presume), that fact does not necessarily mean his claims about implants fail - although even were he an M.D as opposed to a Doctor of Podiatric Medicine (DPM) he would still appear to be no more qualified to comment on implant composition or any supposed radio-wave broadcasting characteristics than the average man on the street.

I would like to know why his claims are unfounded, but I agree this is not the thread for that. If I started a Leir thread (assuming the search I'm about to perform turns up no previous such thread) could you give me a rough this-is-why-Leir-is-a-buffoon there? It needn't be detailed, just something along the lines of "Leir's claims violate the laws of the universe and have been specifically and conclusively refuted at such-at-such".
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*edit* Ah, that was easy.....

...Just FYI: I have a particular interest in asswipes like Roger Leir and Steven Greer in that, we're all in the same general field, giving me a bit of an edge on confirming their collective asshatness.

oooooooo!  George sparkles!

[Morgus]

Former Gov Jesse Ventura was scheduled for two hours tonight.
He was supposed to be the guest for the first 2 hours, but got pushed back to the second half when they couldn't reach him by phone.
Noory later tonight claimed they still couldn't contact him, so he was cancelled and his frequent fill-in guest Joshua P. Warren took over at the last minute.
Maybe Ventura got wised up on Noory and just  refused to answer his phone tonight?

[testpattern]

Wow..almost forgot what I had been missing. Listened the last hour to the "Nooron" show... his producer used Bob Welch's/Fleetwood Mac original "Hypnotized" out of an early return, whereby anyone with a SENSE of timing/awareness would mention that Bob Welch just recently left this Earth. Not Noory, nope- just as unaware and stupid as always. He of course has some boring old fart on the air rambling endlessly about his UFO research site, and Nooron suggests that all the listeners donate $1 in order to help him keep up his pointless toiling. Nooron claims that "if everyone listening would donate $1, you'll have enough money to keep going for 25 years." Nooron likes to brag about how expansive his supposed audience really is. Too bad Nooron is so delusional. Personally, I think Grandpa ought to take up coin collecting or pigeon rearing and get out of the UFO business. Of course, that would mean giving up "show business".... and spending time with Georgie, the retarded son he never had.

A complete TURD of a show as always, with Nooron once again chiming in with his obligatory "there's definitely something going on" before the hour mercifully retires. It never ceases to amaze me how this fucktard REMAINS ON THE AIR. The only thing that I can figure is...he must be orally gifted, and the network executives appreciate it. And I'm certainly NOT referring to his speech.

Start a thread about this, we would be interested to hear what you came up with.

heh black people from mars!!! now there's a movie... P&T rock.  I could watch a whole show about that dude in the sock hat.  HAL if you can dig up all yer dirt on Leir I would definitely appreciate it.  Nothing like a good debunking!!

[Frys Girl]

Thanks for posting the Penn and Teller vid. Remember, George Noory is making a living off of these mentally ill people not by knocking sense into them, but by encouraging their nonsense. No shame.

I tuned in during the last hour and did I hear Noron tell a listener that he should
break into a drug store to get his son insulin and then if the police showed up he
should tell the officer that he couldn't afford it and the officer should help him?

[Frys Girl]

The other video led me to these idiots: Remember, George Noory is afraid of Ouija Boards. I'm afraid of these people!

Oh, man, I'm making one of those helmets. That will be great.

If I don't make it, I'll know that the space alien thought police telepathically made me too lazy to look for a leather aviator hat and velostat. In fact, I'm feeling kind of drowsy right now - and sNoory's not yet on the air.

[Sardondi]

Maybe Ventura got wised up on Noory and just  refused to answer his phone tonight?

Is it just me, or in the last year have there been significantly more last-minute or unannounced substitutions or cancellations on George's shows? As far as this particular show, it's hard to blame George and Tom and the other inmates because Jesse Ventura is an awful fragile vessel on which to rely (except that they did book him in the first place, which is just asking to be hit in the face with the figurative pie in my book) . For all of Jesse's tell-the-bastards-off brand of populism, he's flaky as hell and completely unreliable as far as following through on public appearance commitments and the like.

But as for all the other last-minute cancellations on the show, it seems like some have been made w/o any comment at all, either before or after the show. It's like the C2C staff are channeling Officer Barbrady, pretending everything is perfectly fine, giving it the old "Nothing to see here; move along, move along".

*edit*

I tuned in during the last hour and did I hear Noron tell a listener that he should
break into a drug store to get his son insulin and then if the police showed up he
should tell the officer that he couldn't afford it and the officer should help him?

Seriously? Did Noory actually suggest someone break into a drug store and talk his way out of arrest pleading poverty?! Did he really say this? I can hardly believe he said literally this. First, there is not a child in America that is going without a regularly-prescribed, widely-available, life-saving medicine because a custodial parent or legal guardian cannot afford the prescription. There are multiple government resources as well as programs run by every major drug company to help defray costs of vital drugs, and not just for children.

Second, surely not even George Noory is a big enough moron to go on national radio and urge someone to commit a felony. I thought George was supposed to be this savvy investor, financial wizard type, who knew how to protect his money. Doesn't sound like it here, because if it happened the way you describe, there were probably scores of very hungry plaintiff's lawyers listening to him, and they would have heard a personally well-to-do man expose himself as well as his major corporation employer to civil liability - not only from the idiots who might follow Noory's advice and go to jail; but also from the completely innocent victims of any burglaries, whether the businesses or people who suffered in some way from any burglary or robbery, including pharmacy employees, police or security guards injured or suffering heart attacks or claiming some emotional trauma...or even bystanders who were shot, run over, even claiming things like being terrified into impotency or nymphomania by witnessing it, etc.

Meh, I just dunno about this. It's always seemed to me that George is terrified of saying anything that could even be considered controversial, much less as recommending a criminal act. I just can't imagine he did it that way.

[Juan]

Just ran across a Time Magazine article from 1997 about Coast, Art and Heaven's Gate.  The article says Coast was listened to by 10-million folks on 330-some odd stations at that time.

Talkers Magazine now estimates the Coast audience to be 3.5-million listeners, and sNoory claims, what, 525 stations?

sNoory sucks.

P.S. - I've had to modify this post three times because the space aliens are keeping me from typing.  I need one of those helmets.
