George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

[ziznak]

Is that Jambi Wells in there? Because it looks like Muammar Gaddafi.

yup... tommie JB GN and the one and only AB... I see the Gaddafi thing but... yeah it's JB... tuned in live to the show and checked the site... looks like a sleeper... im not sleepy... back to ufoship.com

[eddie dean]

WHERE THE FUCK HAVE YOU BEEN EDDIE DEAN.... word of the day damnit... bring it back!!!

I went all noorie in the head man.
editing hours upon hours of audio suckage from dave, really fucked me up. I had to walk away.
but the new "dave" moniker, and in tribute to a certain member posting called Gnoory, I will put together a dave noory mashup or new word of the day.

[Morgus]

Yeah, and since the show has changed so much under Dave, why don't they just admit it and change the name to "Late Night with Dave Noorie" or something.  Don't even pretend it's C2C anymore.  If he is so popular and the ratings are so good, the show will survive a name change.  Just repackage it and re-name it to fit what Dave has done to the show, and what he likes - aging rock stars and actors, new age crap, and alternative medicine.  Oh, and that emerging artist crap since he wants to be Simon freaking Cowell too.

yes - Noory after 10 years should be his own man and break from Art Bell completely.
different show name, no more Art Bell bumper music, format, etc

Premrat wouldn't dare re-brand C2C. They are not stupid, a lot of the lissners would want to know what happened to C2C, and demand to know who the hell this Jorge Noorie guy was in place of C2C.
Much like the radio program directors reply about that Dave Noorie guy.

Brand means a lot when selling product.
Take Apple for example they sell you 2-3 year old hardware at next years prices.
They have people lining up by the tens of thousands to pay the Apple tax on a new phone or tablet, because theres is 6 months old. 

Apple helped pioneer the "lifestyle product". You are paying for the cool factor not the worth of the hardware, and in turn it becomes much like a fashion accessory which like clothing styles needs to be replaced often, to stay trendy.
That was Steve Job's most brilliant "innovation", IMHO.

[Paranormal whore]

Where in the hell is that George?  Never around when you need him.

[Mind Flayer Monk]

yeah it's JB...

Welcome back Ziz.

After following things for the last few days since His Norrie-ness descended from on high to mingle with the riff-raff, and after posting some of my own constructive criticism in a good faith effort to help improve the show ... I have come to the conclusion that it's kind of a waste of time, since to George, success basically equals ratings.

Complaining to him is like complaining to Microsoft to improve Windows, or Taco Bell to make decent food, or your bank to have better customer service, etc.  As long as their enterprises are profitable, that's all that really matters to them.  There is no higher purpose or drive to create something special that actually enriches lives. 

I think if George could make the same income selling electric food dehydrators on late-nite infomercials he would do it with the same amount of enthusiasm.  In other words I don't think he really cares that deeply about the topics on C2C (as evidenced by his remarks to the effect that "it's all just entertainment"), instead he just wants enough of an audience to keep the gig going.  In fact he apparently only came here for some suggestions of possible "tweaks" he could do, rather than real structural reforms that we all know are needed.  Well sorry but that's like attempting to tweak a pizza roll into a fine pasta dinner - can't be done.

So for me it's back to making fun of the show as my ongoing form of peaceful protest against suckitude and waiting patiently until the Master returneth in Sept.

I do wonder how 10 million listeners down to 3 to 3.5 million listeners is successful.

It must be the new math

I think dave should record this entire thread as an audio book. Hey it's entertainment, right?

Is this thread broken? Can't seem to click on any older pages (want to go back to about 1033) without all but the most recent simply... disappearing? What gives? traffic?

[GeorgieForPresident2216]

You all wondered what George meant when he said he found what he had been missing?  You all asked what he had lost?  You really don't know?  It's simple, really.



George found his Mojo, baby.  Yeah!

Maybe MV, or the MudKing will be kind enough to send you an app they have in development.

It's called FireFlub.

About George's tongue - at times we've heard that it has 'pockets', other times we've heard that it's 'forked'.  Whatever it was, is it correct to assume it's been surgically repaired?

Just stumbled on this...

There are surgeries performed on tongues. I think they are mostly for removal of types of tumors. There are some surgeries done to reduce the size of the tongue. I don't see why a surgery couldn't also correct some structural problems. But 50 years ago might be a different story.

It's acting the same way here also, using FireFox 23.0, and Opera 12.16 .
Can start at page 1 and skip forward, but cant go back from page 1049.

Forget questions about angels, now George wants to know, "How do we know they weren't robots?"-4/9/08 show in response to a guest describing an abduction and saying there was something strange about the greys who examined him.

If any of you know/remember, from the Bay Area, Bob Wilkins' "Creature Features", Bob once introduced "Target Earth", with his classic Midwest deadpan delivery:

"Our feature tonight is Target Earth. It's a story about an army of robots from Venus. Of course, Switzerland, known for their watches, and Venus has always been known for its robots".

I have the page problem on some pages, but not on others.  Using Firefox.

BTW, I heard a caller I haven't heard in a long time last night - Dean from Tampa.  He used to be from Dallas.  He called Barbara Simpson every weekend.

yes Noory tonight on the air with Peter Davenport mentioned he has been in the 'lion's den' at an internet forum the past couple days. didn't mentioned coastgab by name, but this proves he was really here afterall..

Sorry, Morgus my love, but to me it just means that's what Dave wants us to believe.

P.S. That said, I think it's probably him -- at least some of the times, but I'm still waiting for that studio in Hawaii he wanted us to believe in.

Lion's den, wtf!!!... dum dum dum... Can he overcome the fear? Can he escape? Will he ever be the same?

Wow, that noory is a really brave guy. I mean typing to and at people that ask questions that can't be answered with patter.

[PB the Deplorable]

The show is NOT as much about entertainment as when Art did it, but thats because this planet changed after 9/11.
We still do the vast paranormal and supernatural shows. But we also do conspiracies, alternative health and so much more
. I do about 10 speaking engagements a year around the country to anyways from 500-1500 people per event and they ALL want variety.
Our numbers dont lie, ratings are at an all time high. I see them every month. We had to keep pace with the changing world.
So to answer your question, it's part entertainment and a lot of truth seeking, and sometimes they cross over.

I'd say in the post 9/11 world, with the economy the way it is, all the nonsense going on in the rest of the world, our 'leaders' DC refusing to do a thing to make any of it better, the best thing an interview show on late at night can do is ignore all that and get back to the more entertaining topics.  The topics that take people away from all the other junk for a few hours.  We've heard that other crap all day long already.  We know where to find more if we want it.

You don't see the NFL, MLB, NBA, etc saying, well, it's the post 9/11 world so we are going to talk about all these other things now instead of playing the games.  Do you.



If George didn't already understand this, he wouldn't be worried about Art's new show.  It comes down to George wanting to do Alex Jones style politics, not because 'thuh world changed'.

     Ryan Mauro  says theres more to the situation in Egypt than the main stream media is telling us.  Michael Horn  returns to regail us of the many prophesies fulfilled by garbage can lid enthusiast, Billy Meier.  Aussie broadcaster, Barry Eaton, on the afterlife and reincarnation.  In a prior life he had died on a battle field in WWI.  I wanted to know more about that; I wanted to know everything about that, but George plowed through the same old questions.  "When somebody dies and comes back, do they suddenly have extra powers that they didn't have before?"  "Is there a devil?"  "I happen to think we reincarnate until we reach perfection, how about you?"  "Why are people afraid of death?"  And towards the end of the show George said theres "nothing like having a broadcaster who also understands the afterlife."    Huh?  What does that mean?  To the lions den with you.

[coop]

I listened to an hour of the Barry Eaton interview, and I thought George was less prickish than usual.  When a woman named Jackie called in recounting her hardships and struggles in life, George let her tell her story.  Barry was supportive.  George asked why some people have hard times in their lives. However, after reading Valdez's summation, it's same old, same old. Same old stupid questions, comments and recycled bumper music that's over 40 years old and played into the ground.  This guy will have fat Tommy listen to Art's show and try to steal everything.  I forsee the coming disaster.......for Jorge!
