Why so many Yell Talkers

skatting44 — Wed, 10 Jul 2024 12:13:56 GMT

One hears people on various TV shows and people giving speeches who yell talk . It's not just on QVC.

You'd think that if one " speaks for a living " by being on TV or giving speeches that they would be coached by professional communicators to lower their voice tone but speak clearly and forcefully for their voice to carry through a microphone .

I've noticed this as well. I dislike it. I understand speaking loudly at first to get attention. To do it continually must hurt the throat.

When they start yelling I turn them off.if it's important I can get a two minute version of what you said later.

I can barely stand to watch my favorite local Pittsburgh news in the morning due to the one female anchor yelling. Maybe I wouldn't mind it as much later in the day but first thing in the morning forget it.

I turn to another channel immediately if a person is "yelling" telling me about buying a product or the news/weather.

It's an uneducated person if they're yelling.

It is happening everywhere, yelling and talking over each other, a real turn off!

If it's on TV, I turn on "Closed Captioning" and hit the "mute" button.

A local female news anchor in my area does this. Your term yell talker made me chuckle but it's the perfect descriptor.

The Kitchen on Saturday mornings on the Food Network is horrific with all the screaming. It's hard to watch even with it taped on the DVR and using the mute button on & off.

Sad because some of the recipes are fantastic.

It reminds me of The View which I haven't seen for many many years thankfully which I believe is one of the first screamer interrupter shows.

@rockygems123 I agree with you on the show The Kitchen, I use to enjoy that show but the Chef Sunny Anderson is so loud I have to mute her. The recipes are so good on that show and usually easy meal to prepare.

@happilyretiredgirl It's hard isn't it ? muting her as she pretty much is constantly talking.

Also can't watch when the show starts and they scream WELCOME TO THE KITCHEN haha. Too much.

Any particular chef / meals that you like? I have made several of Geoffrey Zakarians's recipes and as you say easy meals to prepare. Love that he (sometimes) uses very few ingredients with great flavors.

Sounds like a Seinfeld episode to me. Remember the "low talker"? 😂

@rockygems123 @happilyretiredgirl

Agree with you both. I hadn't watched in awahile but viewed it last Sat while visiting family who watch it . My Aunt does the closed captioning due to a hearing issue .

Sunny was the loudest .

You mean like Mally? Her screeching voice is horrendous. I wouldn't spend a minute on anything she's on.

I agree about the Kitchen, Sunny and Jeff Mauro try to out yell each other. Also, Katie Lee's constant moaning with each bite she takes. I call her Moana Lee.

DH watched Blue Bloods. Between Danny's yelling fits and the guy that always yells and works for Frank, Sam or Sid, yikes. Use your inside voice. If my brother, or anyone, came in my office and yelled at me like Danny does, well, he/they would only do it once. It would not end well for them.

@CrazyKittyLvr2 Have you ever noticed that Katie Lee on The Kitchen really hardly eat, she does that obnoxious moan almost before the little bite goes in her mouth, she afraid of gaining a pound. That's my observation of her.

@rockygems123 I have prepared some of the slow cooker pot roast, some of their pasta dishes. Sometimes they just give me some new ideas on meals I make with a added twist like the pot roast and BBQ and pasta dishes.
