Can Noory pronounce anything correctly?

No

George spends everyday kicking it with the kids so he can be hip to the latest groovy lingo.  Sometimes you just have to let your hair down and be a little racey if you want to stay relevant.
"Kicking the kids? What are you, a hater? I don't kick kids. I'm all about peace and love, man. It's groovy."


Morgus

This caller during open lines is accusing Noory of lying and disinformation at times.
Noory is mad and yelling, calling this caller a 'scammer' and just cut him off...

I turned it back on to hear some hysterical woman talking about her son dying.  It was pathetic to hear George trying to console her.  The man has no empathy.  He mentioned something along the lines of "getting in touch on Monday, when businesses open again" to figure out funeral arrangements or something.  It was terrible.  The whole thing was horrible.

You are really going to make me continue listening just for this little gem?  Hearing Jorche claim that people are whacked out, that something is happening with the planet and listening to the story of his police friend who claims to get more calls for crazies during full moons is getting old.  (Does George ever miss an opportunity to ask if the full moon has influence over people???)


I will suffer though more of his dumb questions that he has asked 100 times just to hear him get upset.  I wish that I had another throw away email account set up just to ask why he would be upset if it were not true that he is a liar...  Mexican abduction, a Noory charity, a Hawaiian studio anyone?

I love it! Jorchie said the Gaiam people are gonna have meetings whether to extend ByonBleef beyond a year. It all hinges on subscriber numbers, he's about 7,000 short and he thinks they're calculating them wrong. As Seinfeld would say, "That's a shame."  ;D

Ha ha, the show has basically turned into George telling people how bad medicine is, and then begging insane callers not to go off their meds call after call. What a fucking joke this show is now.


See you in three months when I stumble across this shit-show again.

Sounds like George is taking off early again tonight.

I think I heard this one before, and it wasn't that awesome the first time.

To be honest i dont think Noory was all that bad when he first started. I think it was when he moved the show to L.A. and started doing it out of premier studios, the show went and shit the bed.


This is true.

He was more on his game when he started, after all he was coming in behind a legend. Now... he phones it in.

When he first started doing shows, I was actually optimistic.

... about her son dying....terrible....horrible.

     That lady's call was heartbreaking.  And her refrigerator conked out too.  I'm sure George will help.  I wondered how long he was going to argue with "liar boy" (who just made caller of the week...month perhaps), long enough for George to say he can take criticism, I suppose.  He was a bit frazzled after that, returning to the subject of a "click" of guys who call into talk shows to talk about some movie.  I think he was referring to the herion addict/truman show thing.  George really never explained it, even though he said "I should explain it."   Later, after Tom chimed in with a lame "text" question, they discussed ways to keep these malcontents off the air.  Everybody is whacked out.  And zombies too. Gwilda Wiyaka on shamans.  Does the moon affect people?  Yeah.  Turns us into friggin' werewolves.  And keeps us from getting slammed with asteroids every five minutes.  Otherwise, no.  Leave early.  You've sucked enough.

Tonight Noory is making his frequent claim that he thinks people are 'wacked out'
where did he learn that expression, when he was a little kid?

George loves to talk about "disinformation."  In his mind, this disinformation is coming from the U.S. government, NASA, "mainstream"  (i.e. real) science"  and the mainstream media.  The fact is, Coast to Coast AM is the nation's largest wholesale distributor of disinformation:  vaccines are bad for you, NASA lies, the government is plotting to imprison and kill us, no one was killed at Sandy Hook, ancient aliens built the pyramids.

Michael Shermer, writing in the July issue of Scientific American, took a jab at One of George's favorite shows, Ancient Aliens.

"Ancient Aliens theory is grounded in a logical fallacy called argumentum ad ignorantiam, or argument from ignorance.  The illogical reasoning goes like this: if there is no satisfactory terrestrial explanation for, say, the Nazca lines of Peru, the Easter Island statues or the Egyptian pyramids, then the theory that they were built by aliens from outer space must be true.

"Wheras the talking heads of Ancient Aliens conjecture that ETs used 'acoustic stone levitation' to build the pyramids, for example, archaeologists have discovered images demonstrating how tens of thousands of Egyptian workers employed wood sleds to move the stones along roads from the quarry to the site and then hauled them up gently sloping dirt ramps of an ever growing pyramid. Copper drills, chisels, saws and awls have been found in the rubble around the Great Pyramid of Giza, and the quarries are filled with half-finished blocks and broken tools that show how the Egyptians worked the stone."

Real science and cold, hard facts have no place in the warped, paranoid, delusional universe that is Coast to Coast AM.  Argumentum ad ignorantiam is the order of the day.  And George Noory is the ringmaster.  He must be very proud.

... Hm, maybe I should get one of those Tommy's to do this research, like Jorchie has. But oh, the grocery bills!


;D  Tommy must have quite the "overhead."  PremRat must have a major contract with Sams or someone similar to keep Tommy fueled-up on Cheetos, Little Debbies, canned chili mac, and other such "delicacies."  It's probably a small price, though, for having to put up with Jorch.

I've come to the conclusion that these New Age women who go on about "frequency" really have no idea what frequency actually is. They seem to think it's some semi-magic property of living things, instead of a measurable property of a waveform or physical vibration.

I almost sat up and screamed at the radio "ASK HER HOW SHE MEASURED THE FREQUENCY THEN, GEORGE" but I knew it would do no good. Noory can't even think of the most obvious questions.

On the up side (as I've mentioned before) lots of the New Age ladies are HOT. On the down side, Gwilda Wiyaka ins't. She's a bore.

You would understand if your energies were more evolved. Obviously you're a dim soul vibrating on a very dark level.

When I learned that the network had hired a 2nd rate career media hack to replace Bell; the dullest of all his stand-ins; I knew Bell's vision of C2C was doomed.  PRN did too.  Noory's tenure has been like watching Alheimers' progress in a favorite relative. The only upside was that I began to get full nights' sleep again when Noory took over.

Fair enough.  But can't the same be said of most of Art's shows, too?

That's a good point. I've never been a huge fan of the "argument from ignorance" put down. My objection is to it is that it's used to shut down simple human curiosity. Of course,  "if there is no evidence of how the Nazca Lines were created, then the aliens must have done it" is ridiculous. No one rational and fair-minded says otherwise. But when we're trying to get our heads around mysteries and conundrums which had stymied humanity through our existence, it seems perfectly alright to play dress-up with all kinds of theories, even some that are looney. So let's not shut down human striving to explain. Just as let's not dispense with logic and reason when it's time to put our theories to testing that's a little more rigorous.

And it is fun. That is the formula Art used. Nobody likes talking about ghosts more than I do, I get goose bumps and the hair stands on the back of my neck and I get the giggles.



I tend to draw the line when so-called experts run over science to pull cash out of some unsuspecting target.

When Noory started, he still had the same basic problems he does now.  He either didn't understand or didn't pay attention to what callers and guests were talking about, and he wasn't willing to admit he didn't understand.

There was also a call from a guy who sounded in a pretty dreadful state, off-meds or too much on them, or drunk or all of the above. He talked about the terrible times he's had and the catalogue of drugs ('psychotic' drugs: c and TM, G Noory) he's been on and the terrible things they do to you. Very distressing to hear. How did that apology for a human being respond? Gave him Peter Breggin's name, spelt it out for him, told him to Google him, find his website and contact him, and told him not to come off these drugs too quickly. 'You have to wean yourself off them.' In the meantime, he'd hung up on him and just moved on to the next call.
OK, the guy was barely coherent, but anyone with any shred of humanity about them would have attempted to connect, to hear the story, offer some hope and consolation, wouldn't they? Even if you have no expertise in the particular matter raised, how hard is it to offer a little human contact and warmth in the dark hours of the night?
Emotion and distress - unless it involves mangled babies, when he can't get enough of it - seems to basically offend him in some way. I know it's fun to ridicule his incompetence, but these moments take it far beyond that. George Noory, you are a bastard. A hideous, hideous little man.

It always saddens me.  Science was developed back in the 17th century or so (sorry, that's a pretty general statement but too lazy to research it atm) specifically because the subjective thinking of the day was unreliable and there was no good way to separate truth from conjecture.  The scientific method proposed a rigourous, objective method or experiment and observation precisely so we could identify truth.  It was made available to everyone willing to practice it.  Since then we have all been saved having to live lives of hard labour on the farm, wearing our bodies away, just to squeak out a living and then dying in our 40's. 

Coast to Coast saddens me because it trains its audience, through example, to revert back to medieval methods -and- long discredited medieval belief systems (or at least early Renaissance) in evaluating the surrounding world.  This is stuff we should have moved beyond hundreds of years ago.  When I listen to Coast I often think how advanced and knowledgeable the human race has become, and what a small percentage of people actually carry that knowledge.  If there were a mass cataclysm and we were just left with the devotees of Coast to Coast am -- where would the human race be?

There's no question about it in my mind.  'Frequency', 'energy', and 'quantum mechanics' are all badly misused terms in the new age community.  They sound scientific so they take a little piece of information from science and apply it in ways it was never meant to be applied. 

One caller phoned in to ask if Wiyaka knew who created the basic equations for the electromagnetism she was talking so much about.  He was presumably looking for Maxwell's equations, but all she could come up with was Tesla, though she pronounced it something like Teklasa and George had to correct her.  He then cut off the caller possibly so he wouldn't come back and insult the guest.  Noory seemed to be on his game last night.

We would be fine as long as we still had the recipe for Carnivora... (That's C-A-R-N-I-V-O-R-A) and we'd have all those silver polar bear coins to use for money from Lear Capital... and we'd know who was part of our distant family tree for re-population purposes because of our free trial at Tryancestry.com...

besides wouldn't the aliens in the moon bases on the dark side save us so they can use our souls to power their machines? if we all died at once that would flood the market and the evil alien shadow govt. on the moon would loose control on the soul based energy market causing rioting in the streets in an alien-arab-spring type event... so i'm sure we'll be just fine...  :P

Does anyone remember how after 9/11 happened, Art Bell banned callers and guests who claimed it was an inside job? It's funny how Noory has gotten so close with Alex Jones when you consider that.

Most definitely.  Art had more than his share of hacks, quacks and hucksters over the years. But the show has morphed into something far more sinister. In addition to the quacks and hucksters,  listeners are now told C2C is where they get THE TRUTH.  The government is lying to them, "mainstream" media is lying to them, "mainstream" science is lying to them. And George is an enabler and promoter of Alex Jones.  The kind of poison that sack of human filth spews is beyond shameful.  I cannot believe anyone with even a shred of conscience would associate with that cretin much less give him time on a nationwide radio show.  A little skepticism of the government is natural and healthy.  But to go on national radio and tell the audience that the Bush administration was behind 9-11 or that the Obama administration planned the Sandy Hook massacre as an excuse to take people's guns is beyond irresponsible and contemptible.   

I'm going to stop now simply because the English language doesn't have words sufficient to describe what this radio show has turned into.

i agree with you (and playing devils advocate here)... but where do we draw the line? obviously c2c is on the wrong side of the line now days... is it simply the host allowing the lies and fear-mongering to go on, unchecked and un-cross-examined? Or should certain topics be totally untouchable baring some level of concrete tangible proof? Are there things about some of the terror events that don't make a lot of sense/I find fishy/ would like further explanations? sure... would i say on a national radio show that they were inside jobs? no... there is a large mountain of proof needed before that claim can even be entertained... I'll be honest... I have an issue with someone who peddles doom and gloom and impending collapse... and then also wants to sell you the survival gear you'll need in the post apocalyptic wasteland they have described (Wells, and Clyde Lewis come to mind). I don't mind listening to bride of the aliens (Strieber) because he's not selling me ray guns and alien anal rape testing kits...

IF i was going to hop on a conspiracy theory bandwagon... it would be that these nationally syndicated talk radio shows have a corporate agenda to dis-inform, divide, and rile up the population... to what end i'll let alex jones speculate... but you can't argue with the pattern that emerges... and then throw in some bigfoot DNA or UFO's once in a while for appearances sake...

ok i'll stop ranting haha... i just have such a weird relationship with some of these topics... loving them and hating them at the same time
