George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

[TheMan WhoFell ToEarth]

I tuned in just for kicks and lasted less than one minute before I had to shut it off.  Our situation is like having a PHD (Art) discussing quantum physics teach your class for so long.  Then one day you come in to class and they have replaced him with a feeble version of Miss Nancy and Romper Room (Snoory).

That's C-A-R-N---

I looked it up and The Law of Attraction(maybe not under that name but the concept) dates to the U.S. and England in the early 20th century. It probably goes back even further--there's nothing new under the sun.

To me, one of the best discussions of it is in the book Bright-Sided by Barbara Ehrenreich. Her politics are abhorrent to me, but she made some good points in that book. Her discussion of "Who Moved My Cheese?"alone is worth the book. You will never look at "Who Moved My Cheese?" the same way again.

This thread is awesome, so awesome that I had to sign up and contribute just a little bit to the awesome here...

Probably has already been mentioned but it is sort of new to me.  If you go to google and type in 'George noory is' the auto complete is funny as hell...

I have to believe that the auto complete of 'George noory is awesome' is sarcasm...

Thanks for the laughs...

As I understand it, the Law of Attraction concept is pretty old, I think from the 1920s or something. Ronda Byrne resurrected it, added a few of her own twists, and published The Secret, a runaway bestseller with the help of Oprah. Other authors, like this one,have had their own versions. So the short answer is yes, it's the same thing, more or less.
You will notice that this happens with a lot of new agery--including their health and diet notions. Their cancer cures or whatever turn out to be only slightly updated versions old decades old ideas, some long debunked. But new generations of suckers, sorry, audiences come along who have not heard it.

No idea why it popped in my head, but I just remembered George's appearance on The View.  Holy shit that was awkward.

George Noory Sucks!

Before I tuned out of this dud I had to laugh when the guest asked George "Name something you'd really like to do" obviously cuing him up to say something reasonable like "make more money" or "lose weight" or "win a karaoke contest" ... but Noory being out-of-sync as usual totally misfires with "I'd like to ... go to the moon." 

Oh dear, she didn't expect that one, and you could almost hear her mind wondering how she could realistically use that as an example, that somehow she could help this oaf get to the moon.

Then he went on to compound the hosting error by going off-topic further, talking instead about how at least you can get back from the moon but those folks who want to take a one-way trip to Mars, I mean who'd want to do that?  Would you?  Sigh.

     Welcome pate, the awesome has been increased.  And as I was listening to Maureen St. Germain it occurred to me that I had no idea what she was talking about, and as I listened to Dianne Collins it occurred to me that I really really didn't know what she was talking about either, and I'm a quantum loving guy, ready for awesome quantum thoughts, but good lord some people make things so difficult.  George did good to keep his trap shut mostly.  Tammy Wynette is added to the bumper.   R. Gary Patterson discusses Justin Bieber's spiral.

While you clowns were listening to sNoory a couple of nights ago, I heard Lance Henricksen interviewed on Dark Matter Network, and he said that there is a movement to make a Millennium movie, and that Chris Carter and Frank Spotnitz are on board but did not mention this is a run-on sentence.

George Noory sucks for not having that interview.

[asyourattorney]

ok, sorry about this, but my streamsuck isn't over 'til march, so i get c2c on my ipod, (i sent a scathing email to snooron & premrat after a particularly infuriating show a month or so ago, telling them IT'S OVER! LOSE MY CREDIT CARD #, I'M DONE).
anyways, so i'm always days behind on the current shows.
yesterday i was listening to the "real detective" show, (fuck, nooron, are you a 5 yr old?!?), and the guest mentions that he met chapman the day he killed lennon and he has a theory, gonna write a book, etc.
was nooron's follow-up "tell me more"...NOOOO! skimmed right by it with some inane shit. shortly thereafter a caller aka hillbilly with a mother for a sister and a grandma murdering daddy, yada yada, and this hillbilly droned on forever!
i mean, WTF nooron?!?
you had a potentially riveting, conspiracy-type show right under your fat nose and you go on to pure mediocrity?
what is one of the biggest stories of our time? john lennons murder! chapman possibly mk ultra!
FUCK YOU, YOU FUCKING FUCK!
also, i usually delete the 1st hr so i don't have to listen to the village idiot's intro and "news". but i heard it yesterday, and what "near the pacific ocean", when did he change that? he sounds like he's doing a high school news show.
aww, the inhumanity of it all. if i ever see that asshole in person i'm gonna clean his clock for ruining my show. 

[expat]

That was a disaster.

To the Moon, Jorch!  To the Moon!



Yes, Jorch was all excited about little boy Bieber last night.  I expected Jorch to offer to pay for remedial driving lessons for Bieber cause Jorch is just "that kind of guy."  :

After all these years, somebody was able to penetrate Noory's thick skull and get across the point LA isn't "off the Pacific Ocean."  Now it's "near the Pacific Ocean."  Jorch just changed it recently.  Or does he say "next to the Pacific" now?  I'm waiting for "like kind of somewhere around the Pacific Ocean."    Too bad Jorch misses the really important point.  He sucks.

Hee hee!!!   

[georgesucks]

Hey George Noory, You still suck and thats all for now.

[NefariousBanana]

Looks like Jorch is coming to my city.

[TheMan WhoFell ToEarth]

Looks like Jorch is coming to my city.

My condolences.

Toronto thanks you, Boise.

It sounded to me like Noory and his guest in the first hour last night were calling him "The Beaver" 
They should have asked his older brother Wally to help him... 

[starrmtn001]

I haven't posted here in a while cause I don't listen to snoortard and have nothing new to add.  I tuned in to c2c last night so I might participate and add to the conversation with something worthwhile.

Worthwhile?  What was I thinking???  It's george noory for gawd's sake.  Worthwhile and george noory are as oxymoronic as one can get.

george noory SUCKS!!!

[zeebo]

After all these years, somebody was able to penetrate Noory's thick skull and get across the point LA isn't "off the Pacific Ocean."  ...

Maybe he shoulld say:  "LA, which is near the Pacific Ocean, which in turn, borders LA to the west (the west being the general vicinity of where the Pacific Ocean is in relation to LA, generally speaking)."  Has a nice Nooryesque ring to it.

C'mon, there's no freaking way that happens. I miss that show.

But you're spot on about Dave sucking for not having any such interesting interviews.

[MikeJ]

It's too bad we can't do an MST3000 version of Snoory's show.  That would be a blast-so much grist for the mill.

[eeieeyeoh]

Mammals are born sucking as an instinct.

Hypnotize me into liking this show again, Rick.

[FallenSeraph]

More importantly why does every other Noory show sound like a friggin new age vegan aromatherapy fair?

Also, funny when she used that lame taxi-cab analogy to get some metaphysical point across, that Noory is so dense he wants to talk about actual taxis like that was the topic.  Noory's actually somehow more of a dingbat than she is.

The last few pages of this thread have had me in tears. BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA â€" I love you guys. And I'm not even drinking.

Sounds like a suggestion orgy. I just wonder how it is going to aid digestion.

A glass of milk wouldn't hurt. Chipmunk, squirrel, mouse, or cow milk doesn't matter. Just don't drink fruit juice within an hour or so to avoid putrefaction causing winds.
