George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

[blackshap9]

So can't George Norron handle 1 full night of open callers anymore?

Does Snorery get a lot of callers these days. Seems like not that many people call anymore. Snorery probably put everyone to sleep by the fourth hour.

[blackshap9]

I would like to offer a sincere thanks to George for reminding me again tonight that there are no coincidences.  I had the radio on in the background and, while I would occasionally catch something he said and think that I should really take the time to wander over to the radio to hit the power button, I was just too lazy.  Suddenly I heard him once again putting forth his favourite theory that there are no coincidences and I thought to myself that George is right... this is the universes was of telling me to turn his show off; it just isnt worth listening to even as background noise.

Thanks George!

When did George start telling us that he wants 3500 new coast insiders each month?  I have a hard time believing that there are that many people out there who actually want to listen to him blather on about stuff.  Heck I turn him off most nights (and listening to him is free if you discount the damage done to my intellect.)  He honestly thinks that over 40 000 people a year will pay $.25 a day to hear him?  Unless my math is off, that would be 42000 new insiders next year at this time.  @$.25 per day it would be $10500 per day just from new insiders.  That would amount to $3.8 million of new revenue which would compound and repeat annually for doing nothing but maintaining a website.  No wonder premiere refuses to get rid of the incompetent fool if he can actually deliver revenue like that (in addition to the commercials and what the stations pay...)

Getting any ideas there MV?  I heard your interview with Rollye talking about income from radio...  Just get yourself a host who sucks and a gullible, stupid audience.  Stop doing any segments where people might have to think and just spoon feed them manure (and stop allowing people like me to tune in free.)

LMFA great post! I agree. In fact I say we all give MV 25 cents a day to do another podcast. 

[MV/Liberace!]

LMFA great post! I agree. In fact I say we all give MV 25 cents a day to do another podcast. 

26 cents, and you've got yourself a deal, sir.

[blackshap9]

26 cents, and you've got yourself a deal, sir.

Twenty six cents you say......I'm out.

[MV/Liberace!]

Twenty six cents you say......I'm out.

a then i bid you a good dayyyyy.

[PB the Deplorable]

Like many of you I've boarded  the life raft leaving the smoldering hulk of coast to coast. Tuned in occasionally for George Knapp and that's it. Found myself cursing at my radio too many times to listen when Noory is on. Maybe some yet to be created radio network will come along to tantalize us with a noory antidote.  Not counting on it. Pre-mirror radio has sucked the last particle of fun out of c to c.

And yet George claims that from decades of broadast experience he knows what what makes for good radio and what doesn't. 

He must be so stupid, have such a short attention span, and be so completely unable to focus and follow any conversation that he got nothing out of listening to Art Bell's shows and thinks he's putting out the same kind of show Art did, more or less.

[Sleepwalker]

George made some comment last night in support of his soul-mate Alex Jones.  "Alex doesn't make this stuff up."  Right.  Seriously, last night was the end for me.  No more Coast to Coast.  I've got better cures for insomnia - music.  Or audio books.  But for me, last night was most definitely the LAST Coast to Coast AM.  I can't take any more of Alex Jones warped conspiracy theories.

[blackshap9]

I can't take any more of Alex Jones warped conspiracy theories.

THAT'S A CONSPIRACY THEORY IN ITSELF!

[Frys Girl]

"Can't tolerate burned out light bulbs...."

Seems to give a whole new twisted meaning to "worker in the light"...

Debby I love your avatar!! What kinds of birds are those?

[Sleepwalker]

Speaking of 3500 new Coast insiders per month . . . I fell for that several years ago . . . maybe five or six  . . . and one of the "benefits" of membership at the time was access to their discussion forum called "Coast Riders."  I guess some of the "Coast riders" must have posted something that rubbed the corporate psyche the wrong way because the discussion forum disappeared one night with no warning, never to return.

Robin: Holy Conspiracy Theory, Batman! How honest is it to offer a package deal to people, take their money, and then take away one of the components of that deal without refunding their money?

Batman: Robin, old chum, I believe you are onto something.  The good citizens of Gotham City have indeed been duped.   Who is behind this dastardly deception?  To the Bat poles!

[Morgus]

So can't George Norron handle 1 full night of open callers anymore?

no, Noory hasn't been able to do a full show of open lines for many years now.
usually he only does two hours on Fridays nowadays... 

[Sleepwalker]

Commissioner:  Thank you for bringing this dastardly conspiracy to my attention, Caped Crusader and Boy Wonder!  Who do you think is behind this conspiracy to dupe the citizens of Gotham City?  The Riddler?

Batman: Possibly.  But I suspect he is not alone.  He is being funded by someone far more sinister than himself.

Robin: The Build a Burgers?

Batman:  No, Robin, someone far more sinister than Burger King or McDonalds.

Commissioner:  The Illuminati?

Batman: Manufacturers of light bulbs?  No, Commissioner, not even the manufacturers of compact fluorescents could be this sinister.

Commissioner: The Greys from Zeta Reticuli?

Batman:  No Commissioner, but you're getting close.

Commissioner:  The Browns from Cleveland?

Robin:  Holy football!  That's it!

Batman:  Right you are, old chum.  If you remember, the Browns were abducted from Cleveland in 1996 and reappeared in Baltimore months later.  A classic case of missing time.  To the Batmobile!

Commissioner:  There they go, Chief O'Hara.  The greatest crime fighters of all time!

Is it that he is not able or that he is not receiving a high volume of calls. If I remember correctly I recall Rollye James commenting about the low volume of calls.

Too funny 

[Sleepwalker]

A mother whose young son was missing once asked Sylvia where her kid was and if he was safe, and Sylvia said "Oh, I hate this; your son is dead," and the woman broke down in hysterics. She's as vile a person as there exists.

If I remember correctly, Sylvia Browne was finally banished from Coast to Coast.  Can you imagine how bad a person would have to be to be banished from a carnival freakshow like Coast to Coast AM?   And, if Sylvia is really a psychic, shouldn't she have known she was going to be banned from the show and, therefore, not appeared in the first place, thus saving herself  the humiliation of being banned?  Wait just a minute.  I smell a conspiracy.  Not long after being banned from Coast to Coast, Sylvia began regular appearances on Montel.  Now she is helping Montel sell blenders on his infomercials.  Hmmm.  Think about it.  Coast to Coast. Banishment.  Infomercials.  Blenders.  The pieces are all coming together and this is NOT a coincidence for, as well all know, there are no coincidences!  We're definitely talking conspiracy here.  What is the missing piece?  Time travel?  Missing time?  Cattle mutilation? Pink Slime?  I'll have to get back to you on this one.  I'm going to retreat to my missile silo, eat some of the dehydrated food I keep stockpiled, and ponder this mystery, the latest threat to our way of life.  A threat you won't read about in the mainstream media.  Wait . . . who's that breaking down my door?  Government agents?  The Illuminati? 

[WOTR]

True.  Except she did that to Shawn Hornbeck's parents, and Shawn was one of the rare kids who was being held captive (albeit not by a millionaire couple) and was still alive. 

The alive/dead thing isn't the only way these so-called psychics/remote viewers prey on families of the missing.  Even providing an alleged place where the bodies can be found is an emotional roller coaster.  And those that take money for information should be shot.

Once again we seem to be in agreement as to what should happen to these people who prey on the emotionally vulnerable. 

Well, I was wrong about the reason to say the kid is dead... according to statistics, only (I realize that is not a good word to use in this case...) around 115 kids are kidnapped, driven away and killed each year.  Of child victims of "stereotypical kidnappings, "40 percent are killed, 4 percent are never found.  The odds are against her being correct about the kid showing up dead.  I suppose that the alternative reason would be good television (or radio) when you have the family crying and showing a great burst of emotion.  What better way to get ratings than exploit the family of a missing child by showing how they might react in private to discovering their child is dead?  Nothing makes better television than human emotion...

[WOTR]

...Now she is helping Montel sell blenders on his infomercials.  Hmmm.  Think about it.  Coast to Coast. Banishment.  Infomercials.  Blenders.  The pieces are all coming together and this is NOT a coincidence for, as well all know, there are no coincidences!  We're definitely talking conspiracy here.  What is the missing piece?  Time travel?  Missing time?  Cattle mutilation? Pink Slime? 

Pink slime is the answer.  It would have to be an amazing blender to turn the scraps of carcass into pink slime.

[Sleepwalker]

Pink slime is the answer.  It would have to be an amazing blender to turn the scraps of carcass into pink slime.

I believe you are onto something.  An amazing blender indeed.  One with all the settings: stir, aerate, puree, chop, blend, liquify and smoothie.  Coast to Coast AM is a mind blender.  It liquifies the minds of the audience and turns them into pink slime.

This explains it all. Regular people turn on their radios and listen to what they perceive to be harmless radio entertainment.  Little do they know they are listening to a mind blender.  Before they know it, their minds have been pureed and liquified into pink slime.  They not only listen to Alex Jones, they believe what he says.  And they look forward to his next appearance.  They send in their money to become members of the Mind Blender Insider's Club.  They travel to far-away cities to attend conspiracy conferences so their favorite conspiracy theorists can attach the mind blenders directly to their skulls and further liquify their minds.

First it was soylent green.  And now, pink slime.  Oh, the humanity!

[PB the Deplorable]

... The odds are against her being correct...

Being accurate, or more to the point - being inaccurate, doesn't seem to slow any of these people down.  Not as long as there are people like George Noory that are so starved for content and ratings that they wouldn't even consider confronting these charlatans with their past predictions.  Make hundreds of predictions and if one turns out to be right, George Noory will have them on and coo over their 'ability'.

Sort of like modern art, whichever artist talks the best game gets the attention and praise.

[manfromplanedtx]

I agree with the posts that Sylvia Browne is one of the most
despicable human beings on the planet. She was convicted of
investment fraud and I always wonder why are seemingly
reputable guy like Montel would have her on his show.

[Oversoul]

Can't tolerate burned out light bulbs....
I guess you can't exactly expect him to notice the burned out one over his head, can you?

Gee, I thought Noory's head IS a burned-out light bulb.   

[DebbyS]

Debby I love your avatar!! What kinds of birds are those?

Those are Kingbirds.  They come to the Albuquerque area in the spring (they should start appearing any time now), eat tons of flying bugs (and play with their food, too, I've got pics), raise a family or two, talk about it very loudly, harrass crows, dare hawks to chase them, then in September, they head south again. They have yellow breasts (light on top, darker below), gray heads, brown wings, brown-black tail with white outer feather, and are about the size of a robin but slimmer due to acrobatic flying. The only braver bird is probably the hummingbird (who are also unafraid of hawks), but I have yet to see any hummers, either...

...and George Noory sucks... I get some revenge by downloading eps with the rare guest I want to hear (Howe, Hoagland, Coffey) via KSFO radio.

[punkinpie]

Have any of you listened to Friday's open lines?  During the first part of hour 3 George gets a call from someone who says he did time for kiddie porn.  George asked him lots of questions and was courteous to him.  Before the call was over he asked to put him on hold because he wanted to get his number for "a future show."  WHAT THUH FUUUUUCK??

Perhaps the law of attraction was at work between them.  Like attracts like?  Birds of the same feather...?

Sounds fun. Please post more pictures and/or videos if you have any. We have hummingbirds here, but they are not as "fun" as the hummingbirds out West.

Once again, this thread makes me think "it doesn't/can't get lower for Coast to Coast AM. What a joke. What a scam. What a hoax and a waste of time. How sad." Those kids who were victims directly or indirectly aren't going to get a say, but George is offering that jerk a say. Terrible way to approach the subject. Ew.

I am happy to say that I missed it.  Please tell me you are exaggerating things?  That useless waste of space is fawning over, and asking a fucking pedophile for contact information?  If he were an actual journalist or had a shred of decency I would expect that the upcoming show he wants to do would cast kiddie porn guy in a bad light.  Instead, being as he does not want coast to be confrontational I expect him to give the guy an hour to explain the advantages of preferring relationships with kids over adults.  Perhaps he is hoping to swap pictures and stories with they guy?

Have I mentioned I hate George  (and he sucks.)

Wow. Sick in a wanna kick you out of my car as I'm driving 90 miles per hour sort of way.

Can someone please post this on youtube or somewhere else where I can hear it.

If this is true you really have to wonder what in the world he was thinking. I mean we all know he sucks as a host but this is kind of disturbing.

If you want to explore the subject then get a psychologist to speak about it but how can he even fathom giving these subhumans a platform to express their putrid idea of sexuality. 

George, you have sunk to a new low. The scum on the bottom of a fisherman's boot low.

[PB the Deplorable]

This has caused me to cross over and actually hate George Noory.  This would certainly explain why George displays rare enthusiasm when reporting some horrific way a child has died during the 'news' segment.  And the zeal with which he persues questions about children when a guest brings up some gruesome topic.  Like I've said before, can someone over at PremRat please check this guy's computer.  And if he's been issued for home use, have him bring that one in for a checkup as well.  Next time he starts in on 'thuh haters', perhaps he could mention his role in why they are out there. 

Given the history of the show, if this topic and George's insensitivy don't get AB riled up, nothing will.

Sadly, Sir, I am not exaggerating things.  My thought was that this guy should be stoned to death outside the courthouse.  He's a sicko.  I felt dirty typing this.  Ugh!

I can't post it to You Tube, but here is the transcript.....



Call starts around 13:51.  Jay in Hamden?, CT



Jay it's your turn on Coast to Coast, Hi Jay

Hey George it's a pleasure to speak with you. I'm a former inmate in CT prison and that's where I learned about your show and I have to say on behalf of all CT inmates listening to C2C has helped us get through many long nights in prison, so thank you very much for that.

You're welcome.  We get lots of letters, I - I get personal letters from inmates who are in prisons all around this country and I hope all of you the best and that you're able, when you get out, if you get out that you can rehabilitate yourself and go on and have a great life

Yeah, and that's exactly what I've been trying to do and I guess one thing that's encouraging me to call you tonight is George you are a very open minded person and that's something that you should be commended for.  I guess I've heard you talk about prisoners before and correct me if I'm wrong but overall you believe that most prisoners can be rehabilitated

YES

But you don't believe that internet pedophiles can be rehabilitated.  Is that correct?

Uh, well, I didn't get into the specifics of internet - I just said pedophiles.

Just pedophiles, ok.  

Yeah, I have a very difficult time thinking they can be rehabilitated. 

Well that's what I wanted to talk to you about today because George, unfortunately, I do fall into that category. 

HE SHOULD HAVE DUMPED THE CALL AT THIS POINT!

What did you do?  Can I ask you?

Yeah, I had some illegal images on my computer - child pornography - and I've had some other issues too, but I'm not going to go into that, detail about them.  I have not molested anybody but nonetheless I am in the child predator category.  

Do you think, Jay, that you were capable of molesting someone?  A child?

You know, I'm definitely, I'll always, be capable of that and that's part of the treatment process.

Sure.  When you were growing up, as a kid, as a young man, as a boy, did you get molested?

I was not molested, no.

You were not.  What was the trigger that got you into this area?  Something had to have happened.

What happened was, well there are different triggers to my offense nature, however, I can tell you that I dealt with deviant thoughts and fantasies since my early teen years and unfortunately I chose to make bad decisions and not manage those in proper ways.  Which unfortunately led me to chose to break the law. 

Would you say that you had a pretty good upbringing as a kid or a bad one?

I had a very good upbringing. My parents are the most loving wonderful people on the face of this earth.  They believe in unconditional love and that is something that I believe in as well.  I guess what the biggest point that I want to say too is that first of all this does not justify my behavior or anybody else's behavior but with that being said there are two sides to every story.  As far as the type of things that I've had to go through in my life and the difficulties - and the bad decisions that I've made because of these difficulties in my own life.

Well, there's no question about that, Jay and I hope that one day you prove me wrong in terms of my thoughts about that, uh, because I really want prisoners, you know I'm not talking about people who go out and murder people and stuff like that obviously, but I really people that when they finally get out of prison to get their lives together -  to get rehabilitated.  I've got a friend of mine.  He's a security guy in St. Louis - great guy - he would watch over people at clubs and stuff, make sure everybody was ok but he had some priors when he was a young person growing up in the inner city.  You know, nobody dealt him a great hand and so he had priors and apparently he had a gun - he wasn't supposed to.  He had it in his house and apparently somebody called the police on him when they saw him breaking into his car HIS CAR.  He was trying to get into it, I guess, and the police came and said what are you doing and they arrested him.  He said this is my car.  Well, they somehow went to his house and found the gun, realized that he was not supposed to be carrying one and the poor guy gets seven years in a federal institution for this.

Oh, the amount of time that's given for all kinds of crimes, and let me tell you when I was in prison, I've heard so many stories like that and it does, it blows my mind and finally we have a governor here in CT who is trying to avoid that because not only are people going to jail for situations like that but there's also people who are getting their probation violated for all kinds of things where they should not be violated - they should be reprimanded and given another chance and because of the budget issues that we're having in CT which I think is true of every state in the union, you know, they have to cut it down because it costs a fortune to take care of us whether we're in for life or whether we're in for a couple of years. 

In your particular case, do you think you can win - that you can defeat this, these demons within yourself?

The way I look at it is I try to compare myself to someone who battles alcoholism.  There's no magic pill that can stop alcoholism although there are medicines that can suppress the urges and in my situation it's very similar.  There's no magic cure and I'm aware of that but I'm also aware that my activities are against the law for a good reason - because I've hurt people, not just the victims that I've created but also my family, my friends, everybody has been hurt by my situation.

Were people shocked when this happened to you, when you got arrested?

Oh they were shocked, and actually, I'm glad you brought that up because I have had a lot of friends that are still supporting now that they know about my situation.  However, they are supportive, but one of the things they said was we didn't think you were like that.  That's kind of my whole point because George, let me tell you there are a lot of people like me.  I have a college degree but unfortunately for one reason or another I have these temptations and these urges. 

All right Jay, I want you to hold on because I want to get your number, if it's ok with you - I may want to do a much more in-depth program with you and some other people about this, but prove me wrong, friend, prove me wrong on this...I hope you do.
