Outside of George Knapp. It's crazy to me that they can take topics which sound so promising and make them so interminably dull. I only listen for the callers. I want to do a short film which is all different types of people saying the verbatim Noory quotes I have collected over the years, like:<br /><br />"I’ve only ever seen in my life one set of shadow type things and they were shadow rodents. They look like little armadillos but they’re all shadowy."<br /><br />Of course the callers have great quotes too." My favorite so far: <br /><br />"You know we’ve heard stuff about the homeless being murdered? The crucial way they’re doing it is reducing their longevity with cheese."Cartoonbearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09116431311081998753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051630750074978974.post-84529731322155480402016-06-21T06:03:59.468-07:002016-06-21T06:03:59.468-07:00Very good, Claire.

Between his logorrhea ("holy of holies" "holy of holies" "HOLY OF HOLIES") and his thinly veiled racism (basically, the builders of all great things have been proven to be "Nordics) he manages to be both unlistenable and yet hypnotizing. Like many C2C guests, he just... goes... on... and on... in a tone of voice which becomes just background noise... til you're like "WAIT a minute, this guy is a complete idiot..."<br /><br />I couldn't derive much actual content from his segment, but here's what I did get (aside from the above):<br /><br />1) Royal cubic inches? Royal cubits? And he translated these into inches (which apparently the Egyptians and Americans both have a similar inch, both of which are probably the same size as whatever is in David Sereda's pants). So turns out these metric measurements of... whatever Egyptian important things?.. are all, like, MEANINGFUL numbers. Like 777.7! ""How could the Egyptians have known that their pyramid block segment would add up to 7.77 in Metric???!!" Sereda asks. "THEY COULD NOT KNOW." Therefore... God? I think? <br /><br />2) Apparently some Egyptian pharoah had a forearm measuring 21 inches long. (Which type of inches I'm not sure--the smaller type of inch Sereda uses to measure himself, to give himself more inches?) Sereda mentions as an *aside* (of course!) that he is an "average" height... 6 feet tall! He sounds tremendously manly, despite his bizarre face/head thing.<br /><br />3) Absolutely everything Sereda does, he does in that town in New Mexico with all the new agers. DAMN I gotta look up its name. SEDONA! OK, he lives in Sedona with all the other people who have multiple chemical sensitivity, are alien abductees, channel ancient Roman footsoldiers, heal using tones over the phone, cure cancer on the regular, and are white. He must be credible if the community of Sedona accepts him! Plus it makes all his activities "scared".<br /><br />4) He was once a "solid state physicist". When I was a kid we had this black and white TV (yes! we had TWO tvs! and one WAS color!) and it said ZENITH solid state on it. I puzzled about that for a long ass time. Finally I decided it meant it was not going anywhere or planning on changing in ANY way. That felt comforting. <br /><br />5) His wife is named Crystal but you know what, I bet she wasn't born with that name. And I bet she's one of the few people who have changed their name to be MORE rednecky and low-class! <br /><br />HARRUMPH ok I am done, sorry, but GRRRR Jimmy Church is such a lazy ass, just like George, he gets some maniac with a borderline personality disorder on and he just lets.. .them... go... the host barely speaking... until the listeners are baffled with a migraine and full of rage.
