George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

[thefamilyghost]

As soon as GN mentioned that Sean Carroll would be the guest in the second hour last night, I had to turn it off...it's sad that I would rather NOT hear a guest whose work I am truly interested in, than hear him or her interviewed by the great jackass Noory 

[thefamilyghost]

Noory should be restricted to only interviewing guests who are full of shit, like the Numbers Lazy and Hoaxland. It is just embarrassing to hear him try to talk to real people.

The secret to a perfectly warmed and crisped bread slice is Satan.

my beloved grandmother always told me that.

Yeah? Too bad your beloved grandmother didn't spring for braces on your chompers and contact lenses, kiddo. My condolences.

[Nucky Nolan]

Besides, anyone who goes to C2C for political/cultural analysis and perspective gets what they deserve, although I sense that is where the show is moving. Nothing but facile, millimeter-deep "discussions" hosted by a true ignoramus. I wonder who had the job of telling him it was "secede"/"secession", and not "succeed"/"succession"?

In all fairness, that also could describe the Noory-hosted shows about the paranormal. I would add "dated" and "repetitive" to your list.

(Not) Noory: "It's a Classic Coast tonight. We'll be talking about Betty and Barney Hill, so get ready for that."

her priorities left something to be desired.

Noory last night said, during his chat, that he "won't touch" the Petraeus scandal. But his first hour last night was secession. To be honest, with the intrigue, spying games, sex, and other weird instances like Broadwell's license being found in the same park that Chandra Levy and Vince Foster were found in, it's right up coast to coast's alley if you ask me..

Let's hope that he doesn't touch it with a ten foot pole. Knapp could do a great show on the subject. He's a real investigator and a true journalist. Noory is the host of "Romper Room" for shut-ins.

The Petraeus case probably is an embryo at this point. I shudder to think what the baby will look like. The onion stinks more with each peeled layer, and people don't just cry over the odor. I share your feelings about the mysterious and puzzling appearance of Broadwell's driver's license, which brings a few other events to mind. Two of them took place around 9/11.

[Nucky Nolan]

This is right up George's as...alley. Demonic toasters. Throw in a little Steve Quayle, and ya got the makings of yet another classic C2C broadcast.

FYI: I like MY Satan well done.


HAUNTED TOASTER

Harried Woman: "It's been fine since our priest blessed it. I saw an image of the Blessed Virgin Mary on my Pop Tart."

[Nucky Nolan]

What was the 70's movie where Satanists (damn, they were everywhere) were chasing two couples in an RV across the desert?

You'll have to narrow it down a bit (nah, Jasmine covered it). It's just that so many movies and TV shows share the same template. It's hard to keep track of them. A group of "ordinary" Americans travel to some small town. The local people seem like nice folks, but they exchange strange glances when our protagonists mention certain subjects. One of our heroes stumbles upon a strange ceremony performed by robed figures in an isolated place at night. They know that he/she knows, and the fun begins. This template is not to be confused with the one that covers stories about spawn of Satan.

Shelly Winters comes to mind. That's more demonic flick trivia for our satanic film buffs.

Hey,  Nuck Nolan, I just uploaded some cool 70's made-for-TV movies over on your ME Decade: Movies, TV thread. Enjoy em'.

As for Shelley and Satan, she starred in The Initiation of Sarah - made-for-TV flick in 1978. Shelley starred with Kay Lenz. Satanic goin's on at a girls' college fraternity. It was a good one, and Shelley, as usual, chewed the scenery as an evil sorceress.

Shelley Winters: "I'm the only one here TRAINED to swim underwater!"

Who would have played george noory in the 70's made-for-tv movie of his life, if there was one?

I'm thinking Ernest Borgnine for tommy.

That is an insult to the memory of Borgnine.  Remember that he was in Airwolf.

Chris Farley as Tommy, and Peter Sellers as George.

We definitely appreciate your contributions of "culture" and kitsch.

Shelly Winters also appeared in "The Devil's Daughter" (1973). She was in a satanic cult that glorified yet another spawn of you know who, and Abe Vigoda (LOL) was one of the devil-worshippers. "This is *not* happening to me! (said when the lead discovers who she is)."

Hey, Bubba, I'm a real cultural dame...klassy as all get out. And it's "Shelley" Winters, and Jesus Christ, Just how many 70's satanic themed TV and theatrical films WERE there? I thought I'd seen most of them. Just thought of another one, The Devil's Rain, with Ernest Borgnine and the Virginia ham of all hams, William Shatner.

Noory's interview last night with theoretical physicist Sean Carroll was mostly frustrating.  There was many buffoon statements by George but the one that stands out in my mind is when Carroll was explaining the cern particle accelerator or maybe it was higgs boson he was detailing. George stated "must be some intelligent design behind all that" or something blurted out to that effect.  Of course George meant something along his elementry god belief but it was answered by Sean Carroll explaining all the complicated calculations and engineering by physicists from all over the world working together to build the Large Hadron Collider. Another could have been fascinating interview botched!

and one of the callers last night, sounded like an elderly woman, even told Noory that he should win a Nobel prize.
for what? worst ever radio host?

...christ...  Dr Carroll's agent should have known better than to book this shitshow, i am glad i didn't tune in.

And THAT is what the current C2C with Noory at the helm is for me...the audio version of The Weekly World News. Him, the format, and the vast majority of the guests seem to be lifted straight from its wackazoid, so-bad-its-hilarious pages. That is how I see the show. It was a sad day when that publication folded.

No doubt a classic in annals of ragmagdom. Remember columnist Ed Anger, a guy so jingoistic and rightwing he made Rush look like Nancy Pelosi. His columns were hilarious un-PC rants. Wonder who penned them. I only wish it was still around so we could see priceless headlines like "Hungry Elephant Kills Clown Dressed As Giant Peanut" and "Fat Swimmer is Harpooned By Whalers". C'mon Snoory, live up to those standards!

[Nucky Nolan]

He's back to his dead baby stories, evidently. I made the mistake of turning on the show. He really could dispense with the news segment. It's comprised of dated stories from Drudge and the Dead Baby Times.

[Immy]

And keeping with his habit of flubs in the show's first 5 mins...we have "proximiny."

What a moron.

How "the Coop's" Dead Babies hasn't replaced Giorgio Moroder as C2C's opening theme yet...

Also "lar-nyx."

sNoory said the Hopi had time to study the sky because they didn't have much else to do.
The guest quickly pointed out that the Hopi had to raise squash, corn and beans without irrigation. 
sNoory said, in an excited voice, that THEY HAD TO SURVIVE.

Idiot.  sNoory sucks.

[b_dubb]

jorch seems to really struggle with pronouncing the letter 's'.  also ... chewing gum seems to perplex this amorphous blob of goop and moustache.

noory sucks

[ItsOver]

sNoory said the Hopi had time to study the sky because they didn't have much else to do........

  Classic Nitwit Noory.  Going where even idiots fear to tread.

Mr. David was a SUPER guest.......too bad Noory kept interrupting and pushing the poor man as to not allow him to finish his thoughts on individual topics.  Why was Noory in such a hurry?  Just when we were ready to listen to more about, for example, the mysterious cave found in the Grand Canyon that contained artifacts that were Egyptian and even a Budda, Noory dismisses it and rushes into some TOTALLY UNRELATED OTHER TOPIC!!!!!


Listeners could actually "feel" Mr. David's subtle impatience as Noory would say, "Well, now, what about the ....blah, blah, blah,"  without even REACTING OR RESPONDING TO SOME AMAZING FINDINGS AND STATEMENTS MADE BY HIS GUEST!!!!   Mr. David would respond politely with, Sure.....and then move on without bringing his current revelation to full closure because Noory was obviously not going to engage in meaningful questions or reactions to what was being presented.  His only response (which he uses constantly) is:  What happened to all of these civilizations;  they just disappear!!!  Well, shut your big mouth and let the guest hypothesize or conjecture for a period of time as he was explaining the findings in around the Grand Canyon.


GEEZ.........the interviewing skills of a two year old.

Let us know if you get any response.  Doubt it, but I'm curious as to how they might attempt to defend Simple George.

That interview was rather painful to listen to, not to mention anger-inducing.  Kudos for sending that email, albeit don't expect a response. I feel your pain.
