George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

[Siamesemama1]

Anyone truly know what is great about George Noory?

No, but George, aka "Snor-on" will be glad to tell you.....if you have a year or two or three......to listen to his reply

[imagine]

The continued growth and success of Coast to Coast AM is a testament to George's incredible talent and dedication," stated Julie Talbott, President of Content and Affiliate Services for National Media Groups, Clear Channel Media and Entertainment. "Each year, George takes Coast to Coast AM to new heights, and we couldn't be happier to extend our partnership with him for years to come.

So Talbott thinks a #2 radio talk show in the country with 15/20 million listeners that has fallen to a mere, quoting Noory here, 2/3 million is due to George taking "Coast to Coast AM to new heights?"  Talbott certainly has low expectations.

It seems the only likely excuse for such a nickel and dime radio host is that he may be the lowest paid talk show host in the country which I posted about some time ago.  I also doubt that he worked all holidays by choice as he loves to brag.  What else did he have to give up in order to sign on the dotted line?  Retirement?  Looks like it may be a possibility too.  And each contract renewal may mean less money depending on how low his numbers have fallen.  Those stale turkey sandwiches may be a way of saving money in order to fly back to St. Louis.  Whatever it is I would love to see his contract.

Art's cats could have been Art's replacement and had more success these past ten years.  Talbott should look into signing them when George finally keels over.

Have you ever noticed that George always mentions "fun" when talking about becoming a coast insider?  I just can't grasp how he equates downloading his shitty shows with fun.

My Dad always pronounced prostate as 'prostrate' which annoyed us all each time.  Noory does it too.  I remember having to get in the prostrate position in basic training (I think.. it was a long time ago) and it had nothing to do with my butt.

I was out driving downtown, and thought this one might be a little more relevant

Noory's Attorney: "This is the most public yet of my many humiliations."

Classic.

Of course, I was just following along from your original posts.

Georgie, the radio host who never learns from his past mistakes, asked the space guy, "What made the planets coagulate?"      The same thing that made them coalesce, Georgie, gravity.

This is an important rule in whatever language George speaks:  If two words start with the same few letters, they're synonyms.  Coalesce/coagulate/collate, astronomical/astrological, portal/porthole, prostrate/prostate, etc.

George was his usual excited self when commenting on 22-children in India who died from eating their school lunch.

Someone left his cake out in the rain.

He also said that his "George Time" scam will be "fun."  I can't remember ever having a "fun" phone call.  A while back he read an email that criticized him (very watered down), and his response was "this is supposed to be fun."  This, along with the addition of the word "club" to the insider thing ( heck, everybody wants to be a member of a "club") illustrates the level at which he has chosen to deal with the listeners.  Dr. Sherri Tenpenny (cool name) on vaccines, medicine, and the evils thereof.  A very easy going Jim bell on the wonders of space.  I didn't know there are other "dwarf " planets beyond Pluto.  Namely (I just looked it up), Eris, Ceres, Haumea, and Makemake(?).  While we obsesses over Twinkies and Travon, entire planets are being added to our solar system.  Vigilance.

makemake!

George Time had a trial run yesterday and here is how it went:
First Call:  His Producer Pranked Him.
Second Call:  His Mother:  "Oh, Georgie, Boy you made you Mother sooo proud.  This is Fun!!!!"
Third Call:  His Producer Pranked Him.
Fourth Call:  Telemarketer from Income at Home from a random-generated phone-number.
Fifth Call:  His Producer Pranked Him. 
Sixth Call:  From a Disavowed Poster:  "Noory, you suck."  Click.
Seventh Call: His Producer Pranked Him.
. . Only his producer pranked him over and over and over for the remainder of the hour.
At the end of the hour, Noory, "This is real fun, the most fun I've had in ten plus years."
Board Op: "Yeah, fun..  "
Phone Screener:  "Right, fun?"
!"

I don't think Sherri Tenpenny understands immunity. Not at all. Her statement last night that flu vaccines are unnecessary because a healthy person's immune system will "take care of it" betrays powerful and persistent ignorance.

It's not just me, either. A Scientopia blog written by an M.D. and titled "Damned lies and idiots" had this:

Tenpenny is a washed-up osteopath who has given up real practice to pursue the one vestige of quackery left in osteopathic education---manipulation.

No doubt George Noory and Lisa Lyon thought it would be great fun to hand their 5M+ audience over to a quack who would give out potentially lethal advice. I call it irresponsibility.

On the up side, Jim Bell was great. Another real scientist who can talk entertainingly and who would make a Great science advisor.

On the down side, sherri tenpenny is not even hot.

[ItsOver]

    ...This, along with the addition of the word "club" to the insider thing ( heck, everybody wants to be a member of a "club") .

And everybody wants to be an "insider."  Let's see, "insider"...."Jorch"....retch...noooo, I take that back.  Come to think of it, I wouldn't want to be the member of any Jorch club, unless it's "Thuh Haters Club."

Tenpenny along with others in the cult of vaccine deniers and those who promote them should be indicted for conspiracy to murder children. Despicable.

Noory apparently thinks of the coast insiders as his 'fan club' and giving them a chance to talk to their idol is his idea of having the chance to talk to one of his idols (like Pat Boone) on the phone...

Premiere has made it abundantly clear that they don't give a flying fuck about the quality of their programming.

http://www.premrad.com/pages/contact.html

They also don't give a crap and a half about their website:

"After retiring from regular appearances on Coast to Coast AM in July, 2007, Art Bell continues his association with the program he created and made famous. In addition to guest hosting for George Noory, Art will continue to do his famous Ghost to Ghost show on Halloween, the annual New Year’s Eve Prediction Show and 'Somewhere In Time'"

I'm glad someone knows their Seinfeld

I'm a big Seinfeld fan and I've just discovered Curb Your Enthusiasm (never had HBO before GoT!), which is the perfect compliment to the show.  Man, Larry is awesome.

My husband and I have a theory that we can immediately determine if we'll like someone based on whether they were a Friends or a Seinfeld fan.  Friends partisans get ditched immediately.

[coaster]

Seinfeld got good after season 4. Curb is brilliant.

[GeorgieForPresident2216]

And everybody wants to be an "insider."  Let's see, "insider"...."Jorch"....retch...noooo, I take that back.  Come to think of it, I wouldn't want to be the member of any Jorch club, unless it's "Thuh Haters Club." 

I predict the Coast Insiders will rebel and form the No Georges Insider Club.  George Knapp is allowed because 'Georges' is plural so one George is allowed.

[Morgus]

Noory will probably cut out early on the show tonight since according to the c2cam website he has an event appearance set for early tomorrow in the Ozarks:

Very wise.  Remember George Costanza's reaction to having to watch "Mad About You" with Susan?  That's me with "Friends."

[bateman]

Jorch in the Ozarks!  Ye ha!!!  Bring your best singing voice, Jorchie!

You mean "singin'"

Get ready for another "Jorch Gets Kidnapped in a Taxi" story on Monday.  Maybe it'll involve a Ford F-150 and some overalls this time.

He's probably used to being told to squeal like a piggy though. Tommy can be so aggressive.
