The War Tehran Believes Is Coming Iran believes the U.S. and Israel may strike before the midterms. Top security official Gen. Mohsen Rezaei tells Drop Site Iran has new targets in its sights.
I have a 50k watt station here in Cleveland so the signal is not an issue.
I often listen to it on the net via iheartradio.com usually either my home station of WTAM or KFI out of LA cause the only AM radio is in the bedroom. KFI out of LA is better for me back east here because they rebroadcast the last 3 hours which is 5 to 8 eastern, so if I fall asleep and the topic is good, I can wake up at say 6 and catch the rest of the meaningful stuff. The last hour is usually caller oriented, so not so much is missed.
Again, a guest can be on for 4 full hours. It requires dedication to listen to someone or something that long, but in the context of a real indepth interview, many pearls of wisdom can be gleaned. The show does not have a bias that is forced on you. It requires open mindedness and critical listening and thinking. Its up to the listener to conclude who is crazy and who is not. Every guest is given all the rope they can use in the allotted hours to make their cases, some succeeding and some hanging themselves. But ultimately, everyone is treated with respect and mocking never happens nor is allowed. Its all at face value of the guest. How rare and refreshing. But iffen you have a regular job that starts early in the morning, it tends to get in the way of that.
There are many guests and subjects that I know to avoid from the many years. Noory who is of Lebanese descent (father born in Egypt by the way) sometimes expresses his encounters with the TSA at airports because of his decidedly Arabic appearance. Noory served 9 years in the US Navy reserve as an officer. FWIW from the wiki article on George Noory (who is related to Michael Noori, the actor, cousins)
On-air style
In an article about Noory published in the respected news magazine The Atlantic, Timothy Lavin wrote that "Noory can be an uneven broadcaster, sometimes seems to not pay full attention to his guests, offers strangely obvious commentary, and often lets clearly delusional or pseudoscientific assertions slide by without challenge." According to Media Life Magazine, "Noory says it doesn’t matter whether he believes what his callers and guests say. Ultimately, it's about entertainment, creating a show that people will be drawn to." Author and frequent Coast to Coast AM guest Whitley Strieber has commented on Noory's style, asserting "It's not that he's credulous or easily led. He's willing to take these intellectual journeys. He'll have guests on that you think are completely off the wall — nothing they're saying is real — but by the end of the program you will have made a discovery that there is a kernel of a question worth exploring."<6>
Yeah, that's just not my style. If someone tells me 20 lies and one truth, I'm not going to bother sussing around trying to find some nugget in the 20 lies based on the odds that there just has to be a horse under all that manure.
I'll even give you that there are probably some interesting tidbits and possible true stuff that everyone else "just isn't telling us", but all the crap that goes with it makes it just too questionable. It kills any validity they might have had.
I catch it on a dial scan now and then. It's usually a few minutes of WTF? followed by a "oh, must be C2C", Then a few minutes of humor followed by a few minutes of bewilderment. I get back to WTF within 10 minutes and go on to something else. I'm sure there is some good stuff now and then, but the signal/noise ratio isn't high enough to try and sort it out.

If you haven't already you should listen to that show there are some fascinating guest and discussions regardless if some of them are crackpots. Even the crackpots are fascinating.

It's all the crap about UFOs and Ghosts that make it so hard to take any of the other content seriously. Suppose I told you the sky was yellow, that you could substitute sand for sugar, that walking on glass was fun, that Twinkies and diet Coke was a nutritious diet, that there are 4 quarters to a dollar, and that it's a good idea to drive on the left side of the road in Delaware because it was founded by the British. Would you go buy Twinkies and Coke for dinner just because you recognized the number of quarters per dollar?
