Topic: George Noory Sucks! - The Definitive Compendium

[Lovely Bones]

I would like to make one point here about "strange" things: Most people have had something like that happen to them i.e. Noory's green light story. That doesn't mean you have some kind of special ability or super power.

Of course most people have had something like that happen.  But Simple George's simple mantra "There Are No Coincidences" translates to "special." Too bad he doesn't examine the accuracy of his premise.   

[PortlandDangler]

 W...T...H? This is the inverse equivalent of going to a site called "George Noory Is Wonderful!" and publishing a screed on his gaffes, goofs and general incompetence. I mean, just...why?

It's the same guy who said he prefers Noory over Art, because Art would talk about himself to much mainly his cats??? What the FUCK? Noory never talks about himself at all?...ok and the sky isn't blue. I don't hate Noory as a person...He SUCKS @ being the full time host of C2C!!! He has not made any part of the show BETTER since Art handed it to him in 03'.

That doesn't mean you have some kind of special ability or super power. I guess he was also almost kidnapped or something in mexico??? Yeah I bet he fought off like 50 dudes with guns just using his mustache.

I'd like to turn this on it's head: I think everyone has that special ability or super power, it's just that it usually happens subconsciously, behind the scenes, much like radio waves or electricity or whatever.
 
Plus, noory was probably lieing. Market research suggested a story like that would play well with category x, so they had the interns pitch a few ideas in their coffee break.

I believe the word suck will be associated with the name George Noory for many years to come, and long after he retires from Coast to Coast.  Though many have contributed evidence to assure the world that George Noory does indeed suck, the singular contribution by the members of CoastGab and the progenitor, Georgenoorysucks.com, has secured the fact that the suckage legacy wreath will be placed solidly at George Noory's unwashed feet.

I posit that we have reached a POR (point of no return for you Noory fans) in the life cycle of C2C.  Art Bell knows it, and hard core Art Bell fans know it.  George has single-handedly converted the show into a meandering garbage scow, and it is too late to turn back.

All our rantings, ravings, and reminiscing fall upon dead ears of a faceless company that no longer endears to the spirit of Art Bell.  The show, to be The Show, needs to be broadcast from the High Desert, just an earshot from Dreamland.  We need to see grainy photos of Art Bell through his webcam as he lights one up during a break.  We need the anticipation intrinsic to Art answering an unscreened open lines call.

I submit that the continuum of Art Bell's influence over C2C was violently exterminated by the Nooron, and now by the support structure surrounding the incompetence itself. 

Indeed, Suckage has been redefined and institutionally entrenched by the Nooron, to the extent that Art Bell no longer recognizes what was once his creation.  We can only wait for Art to experience a renewed calling, an intellectual itch, an insatiable desire to return to the airwaves for one last time, providing us with a few more drops of water amidst the High Desert of the airwaves.

For everyone dissing George Noory all I have is two words for you:

Barbara Simpson

It's just proof that instead of Noory we could have a far, far worse host we could all really get behind in despising. In many ways, we're blessed to have George even when he makes some asinine comments or statements on the program (and God I hate when he makes some dumb-ass comment to a caller pouring out an emotional story with: "Oh, well I hope you're doing okay now!" or some such tripe).

Out of all the hosts, I personally prefer Ian. I like George though even if he irks me sometimes - I liked Art too, but I personally got a little tired of listening to some of Art's stories about life that went on for twenty minutes talking about Ramona (before her passing, R.I.P.) or his damned cats and how intelligent they were before realizing: "Oh, we have a great show tonight now that it's halfway over...". C2C with Art basically got to a point where it was an open forum for Art Bell to express his thoughts on life instead of actually discussing different things with callers and/or guests. And while Art had some interesting things to say, I don't think you should let all your personal stuff out all the time. So, I'm going to be a naysayer here and say I prefer George to Art in the last decade or so just so I can start off my stay here at Coastgab warmly by other members.

Anyway, it's my first post, I am glad I found this place as I'm a huge fan of C2CAM.

Brave words. I might have written this myself a couple of years ago, though I don't agree that Art talked about himself too much. I'll admit I used to think 'thuh haters' were being a little unfair, simply out of loyalty to Art. This is because I started listening to C2C in the noory era, so I have different preconceptions about what makes a decent talk radio show. However, the more I listened to old Art shows, the more I came to understand why people love him so much. Also once I got streamlink and started to listen to noory every night, the more I came to realise what a completely incompetent douchebag he is.
 
I'm not trying to argue with you, I started this post simply to say: don't be put off by accusations of noory cheerleading. It's normal. Post often, and we will all pray for you, you poor sinner, you.

[hosehead]

Honestly, I struggle to put the words together to describe how awful it is.

I tend to listen to KFI on a stream because I am a Tim Conway Jr. fan and he leads in.  How does KFI, a huge station, get away with 7 hours of Noory daily?  That's nearly a third of their schedule.  They repeat the first and last hours between 3 and 5am local time; I understand no one is listening during that time, but I am surprised they don't at least delay the 10pm to midnight slot, where you do have a chance at an audience.

I do indeed have super powers, but like Major Ed Dames, I can't talk about it. See my ridiculously overpriced, underproduced DVD series to find out more.
Also like the Major, I only use my powers for personal gain, no wait I meant fearmongering... actually, no I was right the first time.

1190 KEX here in portland replays 3 hours of the show until 5am.

It has been my experience that many a Scot has believed they have super powers.  Two of the most obvious super powers have been the Scottish innate sense that they can drink more beer than the normal human being, and secondly, the genetic disposition reserved for a Scot to be able to digest the local food.

Good post. I believe that he (noory) will suck in our hearts and minds forever. I think noory is hoping to ride out a few more years and then 95% or Art's fans will be gone and he can take full credit for the show with no one the wiser. My understanding is that he already takes credit in his own way. The explosion of "books" he has his name on??? Are you for real George? I don't blame him for trying to make money but this sir is too much. The price of the books online show that. But yet more books to come apparently. Yikes!

 After noory came on board full time back in 03' I can't really remember him saying much about Art except the p.c. crap about how he is/was the best yada..yada..yada. You were handed the keys to a sweet empire and you fucked it up IMO. He has listeners and sponsers otherwise he would NOT be on the air! Clear channel was sitting in the death star pale faced with a hood on, ringing thier hands together saying "goodddd...gooddddddd".

Solution: Need new blood and someone needs to start a rival show from a different network tailored to this/our demographic. Easier said than done but I doubt Art started out as the king of the latenight air waves. It can be done, and should be done.

Well, heh, since there are no sites called  "George Noory Is Wonderful!", maybe they just had to go somewhere and get it out...

His post read like some sort of radio version of the Stockholm Syndrome..

What, my post? I was going more for the 'preliminary stages of cult brainwashing' sort of feel, but I guess it's the same thing.
It's fair to say that I've been somewhat groomed by Coastgab... perhaps even radicalised.

[fysisist]

the only book i know of by noory is worker in the light, which from the reviews (and common sense) looks like a pile of shit.  noory is an expert on NOTHING and why someone would invest time in his written words is beyond me.

I have not read, and would not consider reading anything with Noory's name on it, but clearly any book he has supposedly authored is nothing more than an attempt to cash in on C2C name recognition.  Just like his appearances on Ancient Aliens, I'm sure his books say nothing and contain no coherent or rational thoughts.  There is no better known or bigger jackass on the earth.

 My question is; who on the history channel thinks that noory is a quality "EXPERT" commentator?

Noory only appears on Ancient Aliens because he allowed the show's creator to appear on c2c a few times...
Noory told of taping his segments for the whole season in one day, he probably just makes some random comments and they edit clips from that into different episodes. Thats why they often seem incoherent or generic.

    Does Noory know that Admiral Byrd was a person?

First, realize that Noory hears it as "bird" so he probably thinks it's a cartoon character, sort of like "Deputy Dawg" -- maybe something like Toucan Sam in a pirate-ish tricorn hat.

Have you heard that BYRD is the WORD?!

EVERYBODY knows that the Byrd is the word!!  BaBaBaBaBaBaBaBaBa.......

My question is; who on the history channel thinks that noory is a quality "EXPERT" commentator?

The three imbeciles who pose as the "expert investigators" on "Brad Meltzer's 'Decoded.'"

Like them or not, the other commentators seem to put some thought into their remarks and at least have something to add, they are familiar with the material.  George doesn't and isn't. 
 
But he's George Noory and is useful in promoting their show on his.  If he were to ever leave C2C, he would not be seen on TV ever again.

Money 'graph. And I also think the show is on its terminal glide path. In 5 years there will be a course taught at Harvard and Wharton Business School called "Destroying a Brand". And Premiere's current management team and George Noory will be the central characters.

 That's very true. alex jones got him self arrested on that show. DUMMIES!

[DangerousBlossom]

Um, good point.  When someone here said that Noory asked 'if the Dark Ages were a result of a meteor?'  I thought it was just a bit of Coast Gab wit and didn't really happen.  But nope, I was listening to an old show and heard him say this with my own ears.

I believe it! I still have a hard time with the youtube clip when ole' george busts out his sound effects on some poor lady telling a story about a ghost that could have been her dead mother. WHAT AN ASSHOLE!

This is part of how we know George is so dumb and why he needs cue cards to make it to the next commercil break.   Not knowing basic facts like why that period of time is called the Dark Ages is how we know George isn't very educated or much interested in he world around him.
 
To not know any of this stuff George has to have paid zero attention in school, done little if any reading, had either no friends to talk to or never listens when they talk.  I almost get the idea that if his mother didn't tell him something, he isn't aware of it. 
 
How did we ever get stuck with this nitwit? 
 
It must be exhausting for his staff to keep him upright and pointed in the right direction.

Look at the last minute main guest added for tonight's c2c, a wizard...
I remember this was one of Ian's past guests. 



Oberon Zell is a modern Renaissance man.
He is a transpersonal psychologist, metaphysician, naturalist, theologian, shaman, author, artist, sculptor, lecturer, teacher, and ordained Priest of the Earth-Mother, Gaia.

According to Noory's Book of Really Old Probably-True Stuff, the Dark Ages were caused by the loss of the ancient instructions for making electricity, which up until then lit a massive yellow round light bulb in the sky which a Nephilim carried as it circled the earth looking for shadow men. What happened was that a flock of admiral birds flew so close to the South Pole that they erased the sand script in which the instructions were written.
