Starting point is 00:00:00 Welcome to Guys, a podcast about guys. I am Brian, Canadian celebrity meteorologist um what yeah i'm i'm a meteorologist from canada and i'm kind of a celebrity people know me um and with me is my co-host chris chris thunder james what's up chris hey how's it going wow very excited to be the uh the co-host now it was i guess causing some big waves uh when i announced a little while ago online and people very excited about it long overdue a lot of comments long overdue i hope you got a steep increase in pay and obviously we'll be discussing that behind the scenes with some of the brass but i'm excited to be here chris i explained that now he does this on the free show so that it looks like i never explained my thing so i just have to say we have lubchansky here too hi hey that'd be uh that your canadian
Starting point is 00:01:19 explains your very canadian hat that i was very confused about oh don't see it's it's old did i do something wrong here no you didn't do anything wrong i promise you it's brian who's done something wrong is that he is stealing canadian valor he wears that hat and he pretends to be canadian but he's not canadian he went there one single time and i am actually canadian i live here and was born here so times than one i would say more times than one. How many times have you been in Canada, Brian? More times than one. Two. The answer is two.
Starting point is 00:01:50 I've been to the fair city of Toronto, I think about five times. Okay, so you're more Canadian. Have you ever been to Vancouver? That's where I live. I've been there as well. Once. Okay, so it's safe to say that Matty, you are more Canadian than Brian.
Starting point is 00:02:07 Yeah, I've also been to Montreal, which I'm pronouncing correctly. Yeah, no, this is incredible. And it is cool to speak to someone who genuinely has been to these places and knows about Canadian culture. Bonjour, hello to all the Canadians out there. Oh, that's nice to do it because that's nice to use both of the languages. Yeah. I also know a lot about Canada. I have proved it every
Starting point is 00:02:31 time you've asked me to prove something. For people listening to Guys Plus, they'll know that I know some tragically hip songs or a tragically hip song. Poutine. And of course, as I've said on every episode for months
Starting point is 00:02:48 Grey Cup yeah can you name every kid in the hall because I can oh wow I can but we're going to get on to the next subject now this week on guys we are talking about weather guys which is
Starting point is 00:03:03 a real type of guy you know like uh uh chris would you consider do you like i care about the weather well i think i think you're kind of wild if you don't care about the weather at all like you have to care about it on some level it affects your life you know like whether or not what you're gonna to wear or whatever. But having said that, this is the first guy where I was kind of like, are you sure there's those kind of guys, Brian? Do you know, like every time I've had full trust in you, but when you showed me the list and you said weather guys, I was like, are we talking storm chasers?
Starting point is 00:03:39 Yes. Okay. So if those are included, then we're cooking here. But, you know, I wouldn't consider myself a weather guy other than, you know, Okay, so if those are included, then we're cooking here. But, you know, I wouldn't consider myself a weather guy other than, you know, hey, is it going to be sunny today? I need to know what I'm going to wear or whatever. So what do you – would you consider yourself into – like all I know is feels like – I care about feels like.
Starting point is 00:04:04 That's the metric that i can feel tm yes i'm a real feel guy yeah so you know what we all we know that this guy's a big time real feel guy but uh it's weather related so i don't know like yeah like whether or not it's going to be two or three partners today um but anyways the sorry I don't want to bring it up again, but Brian's a sex guy. Matty, would you consider yourself a weather person? Do you care about the weather? You know, in as much as, yeah, like if I'm going outside, I got to know what it's going to be like. You got to know what the weather is.
Starting point is 00:04:41 I gotta know what it's going to be like before I leave the house but I'm not like I definitely you know know people who are like let me pull up dark skies and look at the radar it's coming through and I just can't I can't get in on that level you know sometimes right now it is beach season
Starting point is 00:04:58 and I'm very concerned about whether or not it's going to be a good beach day if I'm going to the beach which is like a hassle for me to get to because I don't have a good beach day if i'm going to the beach which is like a hassle for me to get to because i don't have a car um but how often are you going to the beach just out of curiosity you're you're a fan of the beach or oh so i used to not be very beachy but then i had a life-changing moment about a year and a half ago where i got a pop-up cabana that i can carry on the subway with me okay well no no i'm a dumb i'm a dumb guy as people listeners know this i don't know i don't know thing one about anything what is what do you
Starting point is 00:05:31 what do you mean by that what is that it is it is uh it is a product from a thing called cool cabanas.com which i'm very evangelical about which i'm at i'm here advertising that's kind of that kind of reminds me and i don't want a big cool cabana kind of reminds me a cult cabana wrestler and brian did you have any interest in maybe talking a bit of wrestling yeah nope no we're not going to talk about wrestling so moving on so so it is it's like it's like it's a big square umbrella with sandbags at the edges so you can make like a a fucking fortress with your. I'm looking at these. I'm like, I don't go to the beach or live by a beach. I was going to say Brian is the kind of guy
Starting point is 00:06:10 that would buy this shit even though he's like will never be at the beach in his entire life, not one single time. Well, Brian, I have great news is that there is a conversion kit for grass. Okay. There's like spikes that go where the sandbags are which I have and have brought to the park the sandbags are uh which i have and
Starting point is 00:06:25 brought to the park and it's very nice i have actually shade now in my backyard i didn't have it before it was like the sun just beating down on my backyard but now there's trees and stuff outside so i think i'm good yeah um let's take a look real quick at uh quora the website where people ask questions and get answers and this question that was asked is what is the appeal of storm chasing which to me seems obvious it seems obvious to me it's people thrill seeking you know you're getting close to a dangerous situation it's also looks very cool it's like you know it's impressive from uh so i yeah it doesn't seem like a uh any sort of a mystery my only reference for this is the film twister which i believe helen hunt is storm chasing to find the tornado that killed her
Starting point is 00:07:19 dad i believe is the part of that film i think sounds right. Yeah. I saw it a long time ago. Is it Philip Seymour Hoffman? Is he in it? Yeah. He plays the tornado. I believe. Actually, I did go to wxforum.net yesterday before we get to the storm chasing thing.
Starting point is 00:07:37 I guess we'll just do this right now. Variety did an article in 2020 about maybe a reboot of twister and uh yeah reboots are quite popular you know if if some people in hollywood sink their teeth in and say hey we could make a profit off this they will make it it's a reboot and also an adaptation of the board game at the same time it's both at the same time it could actually work it could work someone's trying to do it in a twister yeah so much money um so chief david i think he's joking he's the first one he's joking he brings it up is nothing sacred anymore has hollywood officially run out of ideas this is blasphemy time to boycott protest and cancel and uh hashtag don't reboot twister so i think he's having a little
Starting point is 00:08:25 fun he might be uh playing up the whole thing well ocala replies with i wouldn't mind looking at helen hunt for two hours again okay well you could still do that yeah my phone my frame photo of helen it's just off screen you just can't see it but i do have my frame photo yeah and if you don't just pull it up on your phone if you don't got that bad boy three four hours a day most days sorry guys i'm just i just gotta look real down okay oh wow big smile big smile on maddie's face there she is okay but what but that was 24 years ago, and we did lose Bill Paxton three years ago. I'm always up for a good weather movie, so yes, I say. Okay, so it wouldn't be the same without Paxton. But they always have that thing.
Starting point is 00:09:13 He gets mixed up with someone all the time, right, Paxton? Pullman. Pullman. So is Pullman still alive? Yeah. They look nothing alike, and their careers are nothing alike. But they're both named Bill, I suppose. You just throw Pullman in there and nobody will even notice.
Starting point is 00:09:30 Well, Miraculon. Okay, here we go. If they could redo the digital stuff but leave the rest intact, it wouldn't be all bad. Although they were cutting edge in 1996, the CGI is a little, quote, crude compared to what they have now are you talking about a twister special edition yeah this is an incredible idea this is i don't think what's being discussed i don't think this person's misunderstanding what's being discussed they
Starting point is 00:09:57 they want to just re do certain parts of the movie but they want to keep like the dialogue and all of that stuff in there like the psycho that they want to keep like the dialogue and all of that stuff in there like the psycho that they made years ago remember the uh shot for sand and spawn yeah yeah there's like a shot for shot remake of psycho oh oh see i'm not even i'm not an ann hayes but i'm not imagining it that way i'm imagining it is actually the same movie with those same scenes in it and the same act like it is that that video but then the cgi parts are just updated and and made better you know so they're taking the same cut of the film and just updating it like star wars yeah special edition and then you're gonna get the real true Twister fans putting out like the despecialized edition that is still THX remastered.
Starting point is 00:10:47 Like when they locally took the guns out of E.T. and replaced them with walkie talkies and it set the world on fire. I mean, that is weird. I'm not like it. Yes, people know me. You know, I'm not a big you know, I don't really care about any of that stuff but that is weird i don't really know why why you would do that uh but he's gone woke here's the problem didn't they re-render the parts of star wars and jurassic park but if it's a total remake most of them don't turn out so well i still prefer the original andromeda strain over whatever they did with that remake yuck um so then chief david is like total remake reboot the 1996 tornado cgi was pretty good
Starting point is 00:11:35 for the time some of the sound was jurassic park dinosaurs and cougars slowed down imdb has a great page on it um so now we get to the thing where they're like okay uh it's perfectly reasonable to express concern about how far known violations of natures and physics can be stretched i enjoy some movies and have a willful suspension of disbelief but at a time when something is absolutely wrong and done only because it is easier for the lazy screenwriter or some additional things that may seem cool to some but ruins the possible buy-in by a reasonably educated or skeptical person um so i hate this i hate if you're fucking smart like this just like go fucking read some shit don't fucking watch movies
Starting point is 00:12:25 it's not for you you know i hate when i see these kind of reviews of movies dale reed also had to say this was a cow nato and a tractor nato film no sharks allowed they have their own niche films so that's kind of funny that's kind of funny making reference to the famous film shark nato with um steve sanders from 90210 i believe is in that yeah and he goes actually while that was bad enough the equivalent of anthropomorphism for weather events with the growling storm and the ominous shifts in wind and other predatory characteristics was a bit too much especially when i live in tornado country and we have older people absolutely terrifies as it's the seat as it is with the season having local tv stations do the beep beep beep and the text crawls along the uh
Starting point is 00:13:12 bottom of the screen to think there is something sinister about a storm beyond what it already is is wrong i was hoping to have the growling storm be my ringtone but my wife told me to stuff it so i can't even tell if he likes it or not it sounds like he loved it and then his wife told him to not have the ringtone and now he's fully like they need to put a trigger warning on the film twister a lot of the people that i read about twister and the day after tomorrow they're and i couldn't find any good day after tomorrow post but they're very mad at those movies because that's not what weather is is fake weather it's a bad representation of weather you're saying what's that guy's name
Starting point is 00:13:54 roland emmerich is that that's the guy who made day after tomorrow right yeah i mean he's i think he's not necessarily going for like realism 100 i think you might just be going for like action excitement and that type of stuff wait till they hear about how movies aren't even technically they're just pictures strung together they're not even it's not even really happening it's not even technically really a like it's not a video it's just you're looking at a lot of photos and your brain is hard to watch them once you realize that to to be honest. His line is, look at the photo of Meg Ryan on my phone most days. Yeah. Poon Young, former civil servant.
Starting point is 00:14:30 Wait, wait, wait. You also have a photo of Meg Ryan? Sorry, I meant Ellen. Wait, no, no, no. Don't. You also, you're being outed here. You also have a photo of Meg Ryan on your phone, clearly. What celebrities?
Starting point is 00:14:42 I mean, I have a lot of wrestlers with huge hogs on my phone i do have some celebrities on my phone like photos of them only because for my channel i make like weird face you know uh swaps and stuff like that so i'll like put my face onto celebrities faces so i have the original photos sometimes and he beats off to him so here's the answer for uh what is the appeal of storm chasing storms and many severe weather phenomena are unusual spectacular interesting and thrilling events for many people as they are not commonly seen or not known many people are just too ignorant and curious about such beautiful and powerful natural weather phenomenon that in no time, a dedicated group of eager weather enthusiasts develop as storm chasers for thrill, enjoyment, adventure, achievement, adrenaline. This is cool.
Starting point is 00:15:39 This is a cool amount of words, a different sort of... This is a big-time thesaurus post. This feels like you have an essay that has to be a certain length. Yeah. It's thrilling and exciting. And, like, actually using the thesaurus and going through, like, alphabetically, like, actually just putting the words alphabetically. Well, the last thing in that list is he says, and obviously, financial gains.
Starting point is 00:16:06 Where is the money in Chasing Storm? I mean, Twister is one of the biggest films of 1996. But, yeah, no, I don't know where you make your money off it. Is there, like, something where you, I guess, other than having a channel, other than being, like, a content creator, I can't really i but i don't know the world well maybe every so often one of the tornadoes has like a treasure chest and floating in the center of it oh yes and then somebody's dollars are flushed just yeah it's like those booths that used to put people in it like... Yeah. Pulled out dollars in the middle of a tornado.
Starting point is 00:16:49 Yeah. Is it safe in the middle of a tornado? Right in the middle is totally safe. It's actually the safest place in the world. Yeah, you try to shoot somebody in there, the bullets go way off course. No, Chad. It's a force field. These storm chasers are usually equipped
Starting point is 00:17:06 with a fast vehicle online graphic displays of the tropical storm tornado thunderstorm water spout etc powerful cameras video recorders and other sensors which i think a camera is a video recorder i'm not not 100% sure. To pursue the severe weather event with utmost speed and urgency. Yeah, speed's important, I would imagine, because you need to be able to get to it and also away from it. So you've got to have that fast car. Which is hopefully to record the most spectacular and dicey images of the event for transmission to radio and tv stations news
Starting point is 00:17:46 news agencies dicey that's brendan shopp the most erotic footage of this tornado wait did they say spicy or dicey dicey yeah dicey dicey yeah that's brendan chobb's um catchphrase stand-up comedian former ufc fighter brendan chobb he loves to say dicey dicey i don't really know why he says it well you guys i i'm sure that people out there are wondering is it fun to be a storm chaser well philip karimski said uh who has been storm chasing since 1998 answers it can be once you know what you're doing. Before then, it can be extremely frustrating while you figure out how to set a target area
Starting point is 00:18:31 and what storm to chase. Storm chasing is more fun if you're a storm chaser instead of a tornado chaser. Two different kinds. Oh, so there is. Tornado chasers and storm chasers are not the same. Yeah, I guess a tornado is not technically a storm. It's just a tornado, right?
Starting point is 00:18:50 But are there that many tornadoes, though? So I would just, like, in my mind, it's like you'd be a storm chaser, and you're, like, chasing storms, and then boom, you got a tornado. This is a big one, and you go check that out. It seems like the big dogs are the storm chasers. But the tornado, because you're right it's like you're you're getting less tornadoes which means you'll probably miss a lot of tornadoes you know because you can't just drive i don't know how they're doing it i tried to i looked into how storm chasers uh get to where the storm is and they're just like well we look at uh we look to
Starting point is 00:19:27 see if there's any uh rotation and then we drive there and it's like but hundreds of miles like it's not like you could like i know they're in texas arkansas and oklahoma where in kansas where it's going to happen but still like i don't know how they find them and then yeah driving that gas prices and stuff like there's gonna be costs there's gonna be costs involved that's i'm wondering are they doing it for their job or most of these people doing it in their on weekends or whatever well i'll tell you it seems like to me after reading the subreddit and stuff like that, that a lot of these guys will take a two, three week,
Starting point is 00:20:10 they will use all of their vacation time in the summer. So they'll have like three weeks off. And that's like, there are three weeks of storm chasing that they're going to do. That's like their vacation, which seems not fun. That's because to you, it doesn't because it's not something that you're excited about if you're a storm chaser it's fucking it's thrilling and
Starting point is 00:20:31 it's all you're looking forward to probably you know the whole time you're doing whatever you're doing well and philip says the former which is a torn uh storm chaser is happy when they see a nice structure or a supercell the latter will consider each chase a bus that doesn't end in seeing a tornado it's also much more enjoyable if you do it for fun instead of trying to make money at it or to compete against other people so so there is competition that's twister twister zero colon origins the the new film that's coming out is going to be the small time tornado chasers versus the hurricane uh chasers right the big dogs they're all matching tracksuits
Starting point is 00:21:11 i i feel like i feel like um it makes sense that storm chasers but because like more more things could be considered a storm so you show up there and you're like oh it's not the best thing in the world but it's like hey we saw something where this is a it's a tornado or it's not a tornado you know so we saw one or we didn't it's a bust if we didn't i'm going to teach you guys i'm going to teach you to do something that may be a new vocabulary word that you could maybe use okay okay i'm ready to learn from ghost gamer perona is the name and uh the the thing is thoughts on weather weenies so what's a weather weenie that's the word that's the phrase that is the we're gonna learn what a weather we got i gotta know i know as soon as i saw weather weenie i was searching weather weenie on every website weather weenie on every website.
Starting point is 00:22:10 Weather weenies is a term used by some television weather forecasters to describe people online who oftentimes make the dumbest weather predictions that can lead to scaring people. So. Oh, so there is some danger in this. You could scare people with your weather predictions. Oh, no, it's going to rain so much. I know. I mean, that's not the reality is you probably could if you had people who believed what you're saying and you made them
Starting point is 00:22:29 believe there was going to be serious severe weather it could actually get people to like evacuate and stuff right i think the weather weenies time of year would be winter because a lot of times anybody who lives at a place where it snows during the winter, they'll be like, there's going to be 14 inches of snow tomorrow. And you get up and there's no snow. And I think that's what a weather weenie does. Gets us all out buying bread and milk and salt. Because it's going to be a huge snowstorm.
Starting point is 00:23:02 That's not a great name for that. No. I feel like they got to take that one backstorm. That's not a great name for that. No. I feel like they got to take that one back to the writer's room for a little bit because weenie implies to me that they themselves are scared. Right? Yeah. So, like, if you're like a weather, you're the weenie factory. You're making the weenies.
Starting point is 00:23:18 You're making people afraid. Right? Yeah. It's a bad name. It's just a bad name, too. It just doesn't sound good it sounds silly and childish you know weather weenies like you guys can comment let us know what you think do you think if you maybe have a better suggestion for a better name for these people who are
Starting point is 00:23:40 just giving bad weather stuff online and making people scared well it says they'll act like top tier hot shots and try to predict something crazy like apple-sized hail that's crazy i mean that is like honestly if someone's predicting that and you're you that's on you for believing it because i don't know that doesn't seem possible people would be dying everyone would be dying everyone would get their skulls caved in yeah come on and that's i mean that's what weather weenies are trying to prevent i think uh despite that they still have people going to them for information on social media so that seems kind of maybe this seems like very specific as well you know like this is just something in this person's
Starting point is 00:24:25 life like there's this one other weather person that they hate and maybe that person's name is even like winnie or something like that might even just be a play on that it is actually not because weather matt replied to this okay so we have corroboration he goes i disagree to me weather weenie is a compliment and i have a degree in meteorology oh shit sounds like somebody's got a pretty good lie to make their point seem better sure i was once introduced to a national weather service uh guy as a weather weenie by one of my favorite professors grown adults who say stupid stuff about the weather i call quote idiots oh okay so he's got his own very clever name for it that's very cool weather idiot quote okay so anyone who was already drafting up their email
Starting point is 00:25:34 gonna suggest idiots that one's already been taken unfortunately hey reply to us if you're a weather weenie or an idiot. I mean, that's the one that needs workshopped, if you ask me. Yeah. Kids who don't intentionally mean no harm when trying to talk slash learn about weather, I call, quote, passionate. Okay, so you're saying, hey, listen, these people who are giving terrible advice these amateur meteorologists i actually i like that passion i like that you know it takes passion to be wrong if i go outside and that 11 year old is like you're gonna get your head stoved in by a piece of ice falling from the sky i say i love your passion, would you like my card? Yeah, you're not an idiot, in quotes.
Starting point is 00:26:27 I do that at the kid. Well, this part's going to blow you away here from Ghost Gamer Perona. What is it, some sort of strong winds? Yes. It's a tornadic reply to the weather weenie. Weather weenie is something that someone like pete delkus a so he's a big guy and oh delkus fucking that that's something delkus would say that's so that is delkinian
Starting point is 00:26:55 and delkus is a tv texas uh weather fore, would use negatively as he commonly dunks on people online who try to disagree with him or correct him. I can sense a lot of TV weather forecasters become irritated when they constantly have to contend with people who try to preach a message about Sunday's weather when it's Monday or Tuesday. I mean, everybody deals with this you know you got your amateurs or whatever and it's frustrating you're you're a professional you went to school for it and there's these people trying to do your job without any of the work that you put into it right monday morning cora weathermanning yeah exactly yeah well weather matt did reply to this the proud weather wing did reply to this person and said uh i would be horrified if a tv meteorologist did this to any viewers a tv meteorologist this is so weird a tv meteorologist is basically a public liaison regarding the weather so it makes it sound like the weather hired him he's like the lorax
Starting point is 00:28:05 yeah yeah the weather has hired this guy and not taking it very seriously uh some people would say there's a difference between not knowing and being a moron however in no way shape or form should someone alienate or attack their viewers their viewers literally give broadcasters their jobs. We fucking pay your fucking salary, buddy. Well, here's a problem Storm Vibes has found on the subreddit. I and many others are tired of this dude and his fear-mongering. There can't be severe weather over the clearly shown warm ridge there's a petition made by someone who we can boot this clown and his fellow weenies off youtube and this
Starting point is 00:28:52 guy is direct weather um direct weather direct weather they're calling out and saying listen there's a fucking clearly a fucking hot clear clean ridge and you're saying there's going to be severe extreme weather there's no fucking chance in hell of this let's get this guy a petition to get him booted yeah you uh you hate to see this kind of like intra-community fighting done out in the open you know you should really keep this stuff in like real life spaces where like the non the non-weathers can't see it because we're seeing it and you know getting a bad opinion about the community absolutely keep these to the dms because we want you know at least outwardly you want people to think hey this is a welcoming happy community of weather lovers that's right but now
Starting point is 00:29:37 i'm afraid of liking yeah i'm afraid of them i'm afraid of them i'll never i'll never actually i'm actually not gonna even look at the weather anymore at all well the guys direct weather did his thumbnails uh are of the united states and on the on the west coast it says bomb cyclone and it covers the whole west coast the whole western part of the united states and then up through the middle it says tons of snow so uh this the countries i the country if you live in the united states you're either getting tons of snow a bomb cyclone or severe weather so he feels like weather this guy's a fear monger they're right because there's no way that that's the case
Starting point is 00:30:25 there's no way that's the case right extreme weather across the united states never all at once that's great yeah it's never happened never will happen seems unbelievable to me but i mean what and so they want him booted because he makes the makes the community look bad as well giving them a bad name kind of yeah and in his thumbnails all like all the thumbnails for his site look like i'll show you real quick because all the thumbnails for his site look like the world's falling apart i love when brian shows his screen because you can see all of his like what he what his suggested videos are and they're just the dumbest shit oh come on no because of the channel not because of the videos you look up for this really hurt my feeling here no come on glenn danzig cat litter photos man cow monday night
Starting point is 00:31:21 live it's too expensive to be in the lifestyle of tom and bunny people are gonna love this see that's what i'm talking about yeah all right live in 2022 seems right to me live at the ocean was on there as well by the way oh opie yeah so very funny thumbnails monster storm.

Starting point is 00:33:52 would have rejected this dude's application they want intelligent and overactive jim cantor meteorologist not idiotic and fear-mongering alex jones weather conspiracy oh shit okay raining gay frogs yeah i see yeah that's very so that's what this guy is basically seen as kind of a conspiracy weather guy and i guess those exist definitely because there's a lot of yeah there's a lot of like the weather is involved in conspiracies i can imagine that this just also like it's the natural endpoint of all like social media and youtube stuff right where you just to get more and more extreme to make yourself known in the community so like this guy we're talking about him yeah yeah well i mean that's not we we do talk about some people who have who are really not doing well that's true but but yeah some people
Starting point is 00:34:43 are the other people on the forum are talking about this person too yeah it's big in the community storm underscore vibes says a rant incoming uh-oh might have seen me on here a few months back blasting these quote meteorologists on youtube sadly nothing has changed that's why real qualified meteorologists tell YouTube. Sadly, nothing has changed. That's why real qualified meteorologists tell you to know your source. Ignore that Facebook, Twitter, YouTube garbage. Meteorologists don't get hyped up by extreme weather
Starting point is 00:35:14 nor does anyone here. Them over on YouTube are basically trying to make themselves royalty with a fake cardboard crown. That's pretty sassy. Wow. This is like so who who is that the guy who's posting that where does he see him that person is just a weather fan they don't that person doesn't post themselves and try to be an expert because like i just like weather they just
Starting point is 00:35:41 like looking at the weather yeah yeah so they're like listen i respect the weather the fucking meteorologists the real deal fucking educated legit people yes that is exactly it i mean it is funny that like when you think about it when you're looking at it now it's like so the enemy of the real weather guy is the facebook the social media weather guy that's that's because of the algorithm and it means you do kind of have to be a weather weenie this is why criticism is so important you know separate the good stuff from the bad stuff for the general or an educated person like storm underscore whatever the file yeah yeah storm vibes they also say even more of it this man needs to be stopped many weather twitter user users and redditors have called him out for it to no avail youtube and the government needs to get involved
Starting point is 00:36:36 as the government youtube and the government the government needs to get involved immediately on this youtube channel they need to drop a moab on this guy's house yeah honestly i don't i'm not an extreme guy but they gotta kill his whole family i don't like to overreact but this is getting out of hand this is i mean this this this guy this person whoever this is is kind of awesome to me now because i i don't i wonder how much harm they're really doing i i don't know maybe they are maybe they are doing some harm their videos don't seem to have that many views they don't seem to spread that wide but they seem to have really angered this weather community and they seem to be like a talking point
Starting point is 00:37:22 this channel you know it is it is their worst enemy youtube and the government needs to get involved as this is technically misinformation and counterfeit weather forecasts um yeah they they counterfeiting people should get involved like secret services yeah look into they gotta run this up they're gonna do the thing that they do to the hackers and hackers where like their windows just get broken by SWAT guys like helicopters black bag yeah for counterfeiting the weather's you know it's a whole new um initiative by the biden administration to crack down on this stuff there's 8 000 people that thinks there's 8,000 people that thinks there's going to be a bomb storm or whatever. We can't have that happen.
Starting point is 00:38:07 Uh, AKA wishcasting. This man quote forecast what he wants to see and doesn't even know what he's talking about half the time. So the next post on this is from storm vibes. And, uh, they say in addition, folks are still recovering from the tornado outbreaks,
Starting point is 00:38:26 and this piece of shig, S-H-I-G, I don't know if that's a misspelling or they don't want to curse. It's right there. It's right next to T. I'm looking at my keyboard right now. Puts more pressure on them with this bomb cyclone mega historic storm and crap. clone mega historic storm and crap i checked the 18 z 1800 gfs and found nothing concerning through the entire run other than some clippers for the north and some small rain rain disturbances for the south if i was in control of youtube i would boot this money hungry dude and the rest of his weenies uh i'm not a meteorologist but this crap makes no sense his forecast for spring didn't even happen
Starting point is 00:39:05 and his forecasts are so exaggerated to the point it ain't funny anymore i for a while i was laughing i'll be honest but it ain't even fun it's getting actually serious now they are so pissed at this per this is so awesome to me like it sort of reminds me i guess of those like um the people odds makers and stuff you know like they do their predictions or whatever and it's just like how are we still trusting this guy you know like he said fucking full hail and it was fucking tiny raindrops you know like we're still giving this guy the time of day you know like i like the wish casting as a as a buzzword it's good thank you it's funny too it's what it's but like oh what so now dreaming is illegal yeah having hopes dreams wishing that's that's illegal now in joe biden's
Starting point is 00:39:59 america okay people actually watch this fool hoping and preparing for weather that never strikes, but he makes money making fake forecasts. I'm sorry, but I'm at my wits end with this man. The next post is from storm vibes in the thing. In addition, after reading the SPC report for today, they are not concerned much due to it being far out and model uncertainty, inconsistency, and big changes in intensity. Weather Twitter, along with his Facebook and YouTube community of weather weenies, needs to shut the fuck up, stick to the NWS for reliable weather info, and as everyone says, it's December, not flippin' May. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:47 Oh, my goodness hey if i was on this forum i would fucking i would torch the people so hard with this one line you guys want to hear my line that i would torch people with please man this guy's this guy's forecasts are so weak i call them three casts okay okay all right i like it it torched torched torched and then if and then on the other side wow man this guy's uh forecasts are so strong i call him five casts natural extension and then and then you could also go with you know like hey this guy's forecasts are just pretty normal i call them forecasts well the next post in this thread is from storm vibes storm vibes is posting a lot this douchebag mass produces these terrible videos uploading this horseshit nearly daily too lazy to make a different thumbnail he reuses the same thumbnail with everyone
Starting point is 00:41:40 he just makes slight changes to it by changing the text a bit this man needs to go i've got a theory i think storm vibes is in cahoots with weather direct to gin up controversy to drive traffic to the channel i mean i i mean i was just gonna say i mean it could be this one in the same same guy person storm vibes could be that but like this person is like you got to see what they're doing here like because yeah they are sort of posting that thing like these you see the thumbnails i mean the only way to do that is to go over and check the damn page out but i mean you got to see these things you know well and it's funny to me that like uh uh if they decided to remake twister i think it should be about weather direct and storm vibes
Starting point is 00:42:26 like that would be fucking i would love a showdown a lot of these movies have like an alex jones-esque kind of figure in them you know stirring up controversy and uh conspiracy i what how like how do you picture this weather direct person? Do you think like a younger person or an older person? I don't know. Do we have on the videos? Is there any voice or anything like that? There is voice. Yeah, you can.
Starting point is 00:42:56 Oh, there is voice. Okay, let's hear voice. Into a huge heat wave. Probably the biggest of the summer would be my prediction, actually, just because of how pretty young, right? Okay, so i would this i mean he sounds just like a absolute regular white guy like he just sounds like a 30 year old white dude you know i was gonna say this is a 30 year old in polo shirt yeah he works at a car dealership maybe yeah yeah mini mall job maybe yeah definitely storm fives did come up with
Starting point is 00:43:28 something here that maybe that the rest of the people hadn't thought of uh they go i considered starting a petition of my own but with far more than 200 signatures so somebody started a petition and it got 200 signatures and storm funds was like i'm thinking i'm gonna start one with more than 200 signatures but more like 5 000 or perhaps 10 000 our voices hey yeah why not do one with a fucking billion you're just making numbers up oh you have no fucking reference point or basis for these numbers you're making up so just say really really high ones i'm thinking about getting three to four billion of my friends to sign a petition about this guy yeah to be honest i'm thinking about changing this whole
Starting point is 00:44:17 thing i'm thinking about just getting everyone in the world to sign this thing and then we kill them and and they said at the end plus and the rest of y'all meteorological fear mongers out there count your days so that's storm vibes this guy's this guy's like assembling a fucking crew yeah this really does feel like there's a huge rivalry between what storm vibes and direct weather like either they are one in the same and they're drumming up or they there's a real hatred from i think it's one-sided i don't think you know direct weather is like fucking don draper in the elevator you know like i don't know you at all yeah i think maybe maybe they were you know like the bat like batman and the joker in the
Starting point is 00:45:06 same accident that created both of them you know like uh two sides of the same coin night and day light maybe yeah they once knew each other and were even aligned in some way perhaps yeah um so i found another big time controversy in the world of weather guys. Okay. And it's something that the weather channel has started doing. And it is number one, not showing enough weather. That's one of the big things. That's fucked up.
Starting point is 00:45:35 They did this with MTV when I was a kid. Yeah, they fucked up MTV. It's a bunch of like reality shows about, you know, the life of a meteorologist behind the scenes and stuff like that well uh here's a problem i think it's dumb that the weather folk decided to name winter storms that make their way across the u.s does it not seem for a lack of a better word childish or just dumb that they're doing this this This is kind of a non-issue really, but I find myself having to say something out loud when I see Winter Storm Tiffany or some other name pop up elsewhere. 2008CRVguy says, understand this is weather channel garbage.
Starting point is 00:46:18 The National Weather Service does not name winter storms. NoBasket 9151 says it's all about media trying to control people through fear. It's completely stupid. Agreed. I'm just going to say really quick, you know, what's the name? The guy chose Tiffany. I think he just hates women. Maybe, maybe, maybe. I think it's in it.
Starting point is 00:46:41 A strong, powerful woman who's snowing on you. Yeah. I think it's in it. A strong, powerful woman who's snowing on you. Yeah. The next one, the next in the same thing is from Squabster Mobster. And he says, whose bright idea was it to name a winter storm? Gail, of all names, they name it very closely to a strong wind event. Yeah. Hang on a second, though.
Starting point is 00:47:03 That is this person has a point. Weatherheads know. Weatherheads know. This is if you're going to use a name, don't This person has a point. Weatherheads know. Weatherheads know. If you're going to use a name, don't use Gale. It's Wins. It's Gale Wins. We all know that. It is also my mother's name.
Starting point is 00:47:16 Yeah. And I think they should leave her out of this. Yeah, that was like from Veep. That's like a thing from Veep where there's a storm and it's her name and then they're working really hard to get it changed because it's like bad optics for her or whatever. For me, mom. Yeah, it's bad optics
Starting point is 00:47:33 for your mom. I think that they have to name it something. I mean, I guess they don't have to, but you do, but you do. You know what I mean? You have to have a way to reference it when you are talking about it to the public so the public understands a little bit and you can report on it say winter storm chris in the area i guess you could just call it there and and refer to where it was like which area it's in you're right i guess there is no real need for it is there
Starting point is 00:47:59 well there is i can give you an exclamation explanation from 2008 CRV guy. Okay. The marketing monkeys at the Weather Channel, completely pointless, like naming a star, just all marketing bullshit. Okay. So it is marketing bullshit. I mean, it makes sense. Like, when did they start doing it? Do we know that? Do we have that information?
Starting point is 00:48:20 Because it would make sense if it started during that like 24 hour news you know when that started where it's like hey we're reporting on stuff all the time now it's fairly recently in my understanding yeah yeah maybe like the winter storms yeah yeah it's it's relatively recently but we also found from a storm of swines ask the question the weather channel what is it good for oh outlived its usefulness so i mean the question uh you know the institutions that we all grew up with in every in every facet of our lives this person's right though the weather channel doesn't have the same as like telling people the weather on the radio or whatever because we have it on our fingertips now you could just look it up at any time on your phone so what does the
Starting point is 00:49:10 weather channel do exactly well called out swine says i've had youtube tv for a while and recently realized it has the weather channel i know it's muchigned, but is there anything good about it these days? Do they do any live coverage of significant events? I've watched a bit of the morning show this morning, and it seemed pretty good. A lot of weather talk and different kinds of analysis, despite the normal morning show banter. Anything else worth watching? Excoriator from Southeast Ohio said, I prefer Weather Channel that only tells me the weather during prime time the weather channel might give you five minutes of weather and every hour so what's it doing for the rest of it so i think they are mad because they show reality tv shows so they actually do and so i i was kind of joking about that they were that's really what's happened to it
Starting point is 00:50:06 they've yeah yeah yeah they they have like a full they show movies i saw one of these things uh anyone else oh that's anyone yeah they they showed a horror movie on there recently and these guys lost their fucking minds that's a crossover that's a guy's crossover i was gonna say this is like some stick to sports stuff we've done horror guys on here before so that's a bit of a yeah new tanker said uh if there's a major weather event tornadoes lots of severe thunderstorm warnings winter storms they will continue live coverage over pre-taped programming typically they do live weather from 6 a.m to to 8 p.m. with pattern thrown in in the noon hour. On weekdays, and I want to say 6 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday with actual reality shows that tell stories in the other hours that somehow tie weather into things.
Starting point is 00:50:58 What I don't like about the Weather Channel, as it appears on YouTube TV, is that the forecast ticker on the bottom is national and not local. One would think maybe based on where you're at, you'll get a local feed like you would with cable. Same for their local on the eights. Oh, and naming winter storms? That's for another discussion. That's, yeah, I don't have enough time today to even talk about that.
Starting point is 00:51:22 But they are right about that. What the hell good does it do for you unless it's local weather if you're a weather guy i would think you would want to watch tvs about what tv shows yeah okay so this is for people who are interested in the weather in a different like we've discussed these are weather guys who are like interested in other people because yeah for a normal person the weather is only you're only interested in the weather the places you're going to be yes yeah yeah absolutely i mean i don't want to be surveilled by the weather channel i don't want them to know where i am no no no and that's a huge thing too yeah you can't be watching too much yeah they're gonna they're gonna get a fix on me yeah i mean that's not Yeah. That's how I make all. Yeah. A lot of my choices are based on that.
Starting point is 00:52:07 Mr. Z's on says in the beginning, it was great. Had nice background music, relaxed and casual atmosphere. And who could ever forget Sharon result in her sexy animal print clothing after it got sold to network TV. It lost all that. So the sexy lady's not there um which is bad you know uh tiger cat 2244 says when i was growing up i could turn on channels and the content was on the channel i'm not no no no he's right he's right. He's right. He's right. The Weather Channel was one of those pioneers. I turned it on and didn't cut it off for hours, sometimes days.
Starting point is 00:52:50 Just the current weather on the planet. That's all it was. And it was calming and nice and interesting. Just weather. You guys remember channels. It was just the current weather on the planet. I was watching all the time. I'm not sure why they wanted me to quit watching, but I haven't watched in 10 years.
Starting point is 00:53:09 I got frustrated when I had an emergency weather situation, and the source I turned to in those situations was no longer there. At 3 a.m., I had the Weather Channel to save me. I don't have that now. I have to get the information from the internet without expertise or interpretation yes the weather channel truckers driving and ice that's what i need to see at 3 a.m when the weather's getting stirred up so okay wait a second though you i mean you can find the information online you don't have to be that you can find the expertise like you're not you
Starting point is 00:53:43 know what i mean you can find the experts saying the stuff online as well no you shouldn't have to find it online in my opinion i didn't believe the weather channel the weather channel left me yeah yeah totally it's a sad day when the weather channel stopped doing weather all the time you got to imagine like because i found a weather channel forum where they pass the music around and they make like uh they they they like make programs that you can turn on so that it looks like the weather channel from like the 90s and 2000s like they they are constantly like making models and stuff like that uh i'm sure this person doesn't know but uh the next person anger personified absolutely nothing but seriously commercials overhyping, sensationalist weather coverage, and, in my opinion, the worst thing, naming winter storms.
Starting point is 00:54:48 Yeah, that is honestly... I mean, listen, the more I hear about it, the more fucking pissed off I get. It's a fucking marketing bullshit. It's the marketing monkeys. It's the marketing monkeys it's the monkeys over in my marketing monkeys over at the store they're fucking fucking us around again and that fucking pisses me off how cool would it be to go to like a weather guy convention and start bringing up that you are in favor of naming winter storm i i set up a booth that just says I am the guy who
Starting point is 00:55:25 names the winter storms wearing one of the stab proof vests that the British police get I'll just be watching a TV show or whatever and I'll see like one of the characters and I'll just be like yeah maybe maybe barley for this one
Starting point is 00:55:44 someone just punches me in the face and I'll just be like, yeah, maybe maybe barley for this one. Someone just punches me in the face. You get beat up for being the guy that names the winter storm. Yeah. I really detest that and it's becoming more and more a thing nowadays. Me Plondy also replied to What Is It Good
Starting point is 00:56:02 For and said, after they began naming winter storms i was done with them that was it that was the final nail in the top i can't i know that guys part of being a guy is that you do get mad at things that nobody from the outside would ever understand or get mad at. Yeah, because I've never thought of that. Like, I always, like, I mean, I stupidly, I was like, oh, no, there's a reason for them. And then I sort of realized, oh, there is no reason for them, and it is a marketing thing.
Starting point is 00:56:37 But, yeah, it's never, it would never make me mad. I would never care about that. I don't think that it affects me in any way. For sure. I don't know why it would. I just, I can't imagine. It's like, it's like the Reptile Guys episode where they were super mad because you're not allowed to own like Komodo dragon. because you're not allowed to own like komodo dragon and it's it's like that doesn't seem like something that anybody would want to do but in the end there are reptile guys and they want to
Starting point is 00:57:14 fucking own komodo dragon yeah like if those guys want to get torn limb from limb in their own house let them you know yeah i think an issue though is sometimes these komodo dragons or whatever the people they'll get out yeah no you shouldn't own a komodo dragon go eat a small child yeah i mean that's fundamentally is that you can't you can't own a komodo dragon is the thing because it'll kill you and get out like regardless of where it is you can't own one you can only trap it for a time there was also the lady that was like asking advice on that i'm having a kid what should should would it be okay if i kept my 40 uh venomous snakes hots they're called yeah hot if i kept 40 venomous snakes in the house and it's like no no that's like not okay you shouldn't do that you shouldn't what if
Starting point is 00:58:05 you only kept the kid up very high yeah with your with your wife 180 uh early 2000s weather channel was simply amazing no programming relatively little advertising we would get these massive snow storms in norcal and they would use the arrows to point at tahoe with the label heavy snow good old days that person might be goofing no yeah that seems a little like that seems a little bit like sort of you know reminiscing in a in a joking way well the next person says oh god the commercials and then uh gets a reply those damn shack commercials do my head in and then the guy goes i saw one for a product named new gen x yesterday lmao so uh so mad that the television has commercials yes that the weather channel has commercials which sort of by the way uh you know uh they've always had i remember reading an
Starting point is 00:59:08 article way way back in the day uh where they were talking about the channels that show the most commercials and i remember getting really like it's mtv it has to be mtv because like that's all i watched and there were a ton of commercials on it and then they said no it's the weather channel i'm like well that fucking makes sense. Uh, like there's no reason not to have mostly commercials on that channel unless, you know, unless you're a weather head that would make you mad. Um, here's a question that I think you all would, you, you wouldn't ever think to ask only a weather weather guy would think to ask this i need some insight into how people's mind work on deciding that sunny is the fun weather
Starting point is 00:59:51 i don't understand people who say it's sunny it's a great day to be outside for a walk etc which is almost everyone i've ever met but it's a small crowd so i wonder if i am just at the wrong part of the world or something because I'm like it's freaking sunny sweaty and hot I don't want to go outside I wonder why people aren't wishing for a cloudy day so they can go out because I certainly do wish for that some people do I think this person is right that there maybe just don't have don't know enough people um but yeah I mean sunny I guess is just sort of you don't have to wear as many clothes you know you can the sunshine kind of feels nice on you if it's not too hot um you
Starting point is 01:00:36 know if i don't know but yeah when if it gets too hot and you get too sweaty and stuff definitely i mean there's like heat wave going on here has It has been in Vancouver and it just, sometimes it gets uncomfortable. And I think, man, I wish it were cloudy and I'm like excited for the cloudy weather. So yeah, this guy should get invested in a cool cabanas.com cabana. That would be good. Yeah. We got to get you a sponsorship. I, I, I've convinced no less than four of my friends to buy one.
Starting point is 01:01:03 How much do they cost? Like 120120. $180. You get them on sale for like $120. Okay. My wife would probably actually be excited. Brian, you have no need for it. I'm telling you this is a waste of your money.
Starting point is 01:01:20 Don't horn in on my fucking sale here. This is like when you wanted to subscribe to the chive okay i'm not gonna let you i'm not letting you do it it's a lifetime it's so stupid not to you get you get a lifetime chive membership for 299 dollars that's like your whole fucking life and do you get a coin with it yeah you get a coin for the coin and as they said if you go to austin you can go to the chive headquarters and get one free shot of whistle pig which very cool if i go to austin though i'll tell you what i'm only going one place and that's the comedy mothership with joe rogan baby i'll be there each and every night
Starting point is 01:02:05 brian will be chiving on he'll be keeping calm you're stressed out you're not chiving at all yeah uh baron von kaiser said this ain't no shit first day i was in kuwait it was 141 degrees i also live in oklahoma for a few years and last year I was there, it hit 100 on June 1st. The daytime high didn't get below triple digits until the end of September. From July 5th or so until the tail end of August, it didn't get below 115. I was absolutely miserable. And Seymour Zamboni replies, the highest temperature ever recorded on Earth is 134 degrees. So it wasn't 141 in kuwait
Starting point is 01:02:46 i'm sure it was extremely hot just not 141 yikes called out now yeah when you're saying how odd something is you're gonna want to check the hottest temperature of all time before you say it just to make sure you know more zamboni is a weather guy that is that is because because you know he saw this guy said 141 and he's like i can't i can't i can't let he's got that knowledge in his head uh baron von kaiser says that's what the pilot told me and announced it was when i got off the plane could have meant that it felt like maybe talking real feel he's a real feel guy yeah i'm somebody else says a few years ago we had our annual fourth of july cookout an all-day affair with about 200
Starting point is 01:03:30 people it was sunny in the upper 90s in the midwest with close to 100 humidity i was wearing a tank top and thin store shorts and just guzzling water for over 12 hours i had to carry a towel around with me because i was sweating so profusely it was absolutely miserable seymour zamboni replies uh quote it was sunny in the upper 90s in the midwest with close to 100 humidity no it wasn't oh you got what's this guy's name seymour zamboni you got zambonied oh you got zambon you got you got resurfaced by the zamboni you got zambonied baby seymour zamboni does not fuck around no it wasn't i'm sure it was extremely hot and miserably humid
Starting point is 01:04:19 but no place in the usa has ever been that hot with relative humidity of 100 at the same time the library is open yeah it's done a relative humidity of 100 means the dew point equals the air temperature during the most extreme bouts of heat and humidity in the usa the dew points may reach sometimes into the low 80s but that that isn't common. More typically, the highest dew points during a heat wave will be upper 70s. So this goes on for a very long time in the end for him to go. But even if the dew point was 90, again, basically never happens. And the temp is 98. The relative humidity is still only 76%.
Starting point is 01:04:59 Yikes. So it's not even close to what you're saying. This person might be a meteorologist. Z-More Zamboni? I think he just Googles stuff and he cannot. Like, he's a guy that can't stand to see somebody being wrong. You know? And then we got Autumn Kitty Cat says, I don't like the sun either.
Starting point is 01:05:22 I don't like any weather at all. But I follow this channel. LOL. Wait a second. It's exposure therapy. You don't like any weather at all? None. I mean, that's kind of where I'm at, too, though.
Starting point is 01:05:36 The sucking vacuum of space is what you're interested in? Yeah. Where do you like to be? I don't like weather. You don't like any weather. But you're walking around all the time. You're outside constantly. And that might be why I hate weather.
Starting point is 01:05:51 You know what I mean? So you don't like just sort of a soft breeze, like a sunny kind of day. It's maybe 75, 80 degrees. I don't know your degrees. 72 is room temperature. Okay. I'm just going to say it in my degrees, okay?
