George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

Started by MV/Liberace!, April 06, 2008, 01:23:02 AM

Can Noory pronounce anything correctly?

No
No

George Drooly

Good God, how can a national radio "personality" get away with such atrocious pronunciation and misassociations night after night?

Even commonly known names in current events challenge his grade-school mind: I swear he said "Janet Napoleontano" during the news segment the other day. If he ever interviews Sarah Palin, it would be a three-ring circus of incongruent conflations -- or, as he would likely term it: impotent conflagrations (they probably advertise a cure for that on C2CAM).

And why in the world can't he say "powerful" properly? There's only one "r" in that word, Nooron.

    Steven Quayle thinks that Armageddon may be a few weeks away.  Great.  There goes my vacation.  Brian Green spent three hours talking about one of my favorite coast topics:  that much-too-crazy-for-me wonderful world of quantum physics and multi-universes.  Eventually I'm gonna have to break down and learn the math on this because that seems to be the only way to "get it".  I would love to fill a blackboard with a whole bunch of mathematical stuff that somehow added up to...reality(?).  While I've grown accustomed to George's dumb questions ("what was there before the big bang?") there were a couple I'll make special note of:
     "If the big bang occurred 400 billion years ago, why is the earth only 4 billion years old?"  Are you kidding, George?  There is one of two things going on here.  Either George is really confused about this, or he believes some segment of his audience is confused about this and he is asking it on their behalf.  Either way, it's really really troubling.
    "Are you in awe of the universe?"   He asked this at the tail end of the show, after listening to someone go on an on about the wonders of space and science.  George knew the answer.  Why ask it?  Why?
     I'm beginning to think that the reason George has not received a reply to his mysterious email to Art is not because Art has chosen not to answer, but rather, possibly, that Art began composing his response immediately, and he has yet to finish his long, epic, perhaps multi-volumed, letter detailing how much George Noory sucks.

Cross post this to the "late to the party thread'' if there is one, but I just signed up and figured I'd pop my cherry on this thread.


Regarding the poll at the top of the page-

A few weeks back he was reading some news pertaining to "Hy-Undies" and "Uhhh-Cure-uh" Hyundai and Acura. After he said that I sat there at my desk for a minute and thought to myself "Did he really say that? You've got to be shitting me!" If he did that for a laugh I have to admit it worked!

This is a great board, I just stumbled upon it a few days ago.

Was anyone listening last week when Snoory had on some dude talking about enhancing the brain (proof positive that George doesn't follow his guests' suggestions), when bubblehead asked "What do they mean when they say someone has mush brain?"   
His guest replied: "Gee...I don't know George"....all the time he was probably thinkin' they were probably referring to you, you dolt!

Can someone please tell me how George manages to keep his job at coast ?
It is pretty clear to anyone who listens that George simply can't do the job that is trusted to him , so why does he still have the job ?

what would be epic is if the guest simply responded, "no."

Welcome and thanks for throwing that jewel in the bin-- I was listening while washing dishes and cried "NO!" to the heavens when he pronounced Napolitano "Napoleon-tano."  You can understand when people smash the names of cities in states where they've never lived, but with Nooron, you have to ask yourself if he's ever heard the proper names of prominent politicians pronounced.  Like, does he listen to the news?  Watch TV?  Live in a cave, maybe, with only internet and the mute button? 

Yeah, this board is a fun one--it's now my favorite of several I post on.

how many others do you post on?  you're already a rather consistent participant here, so you must spend a considerable amount of time on the message board front.  i have a hard time just keeping up with this one.

I heard a new one from George last night-

"I had a dream a lamp fell on me and when I woke up the lamp beside the bed was laying on me! I couldn't believe the lamp fell on me. It was 'bazaar'!"

I also post on Rfm (Recovery From Mormonism), elsewhere I only lurk.  And yeah, it's time consuming but I 'm mostly retired so I can do whatever the hell I want.  Whenever a delicious wave of retirement pleasure sweeps through my body, I think of Art and hope he's living the same.  By the way, I checked out overnightam.com, Lam Lamphere, and liked it.  There was a genuine conversation occurring, which spiked m remark on GN Definitive Compendium about feeling rev'd up but unsatisfied after listening to the Snoron.  Unfortunately, the hours are lame compared to what we're used to 8-10pm which repeats at 12.  Better than nothing, but not exactly pedal-to-the-metal, get you through the night format.

And regarding the hours on the laptop?  I tell people I meditate. LOL

Some jackoff called up last night in the final minutes rambling about how important the show is and equating George with Art and that the show should take over the world and what "WE" accomplished with the show. Must have been one of the producers calling in.

" Coast to Coast AM -- George Noory tries to screw with a caller, but she busts him! She promptly gets cut off.
George Noory, host of the radio talk show "Coast to Coast AM," takes open line phone calls on May 12, 2005. A caller from San Diego discusses her experiences with ESP. Mr. Noory then attempts to guess her career by "reading her mind." After correctly stating that she works with ATM machines, the caller says she already gave that information to the call screener before going on the air. "

George so badly wants us to all believe that he has some spacial power .

It's so sad to see this kind of behavior from a grown man .

He sure didn't waste any time getting her off the phone. "Ummm First time caller line" Appears he got shaken up a bit having his ass handed to him like that.

To me, all I gave up on Coast To Coast AM after what I heard George Norry state to a guest on air one night -- when it comes to any type of programming, talk-radio or otherwise:

"It's all about ratings."

There you have it. There's no gray area. Any program's integrity matters not. Any program's credibility matters not. All long as it draws high ratings for a network, it goes on. And he summed up what Coast To Coast AM is right now -- a program bent only on maintaining high ratings (i think it's called a market share), and one in which the validity of what it's doing doesn't matter. One bit.

At least, in admitting that, Norry illustrated the program can be what it wants, regardless of the nonsense it often dishes out posing as science and -- God forbid -- truth.

At least I have Fox-Sports Radio overnight. These days, it puts Coast To Coast AM to shame. And the latter cares not what it's made of, as long as there's money to be made by what it does.

^^^ Sports radio can be awfully dull sometimes. It's really obvious in some cases how the hosts are directed to talk a certain amount about topics, take a certain amount of calls, etc. One example of this is for a while on Fox Sports Radio they really try to drum up the interest in NASCAR, because Fox was the company which broadcast the races.

But sometimes it's interesting. I think there are some quality hosts on these shows. I would rather hear them talk about something else  a lot of the time, though.

I wish that politics and sports weren't the only topics open for discussion on the radio.

I prefer listening to local sports stations like WFAN in New York or the Sports Hub in Boston rather than a national one. National ones are ridiculous hodgepodges of stuff, but it almost always turns to college football and NASCAR, two sports I have little and no interest in. At least the local ones are colorful, but by the middle of the night they almost always switch to FOX or ESPN Radio.

Good point, Digitech. Why are there no good talk shows devoted to movies, TV, and music for example? I'd love to hear a show (and not a bullshit one with a lot gossip about the Kardassians or Lindsay Lohan) about those things. The only ones I've ever heard were one or two hour deals on the weekend.

Unreal. I had not seen that before. Wonder if he wears a pink bunny suit when he peeks in Linda Molting Howe's windows?
