The Nateland Podcast - 183: #183 Weather (Revisited)
Episode Date: January 17, 2024This week, the guys are trapped at home due to the snow so they thought it would be a good time to revisit one of their favorite Nateland episodes - Weather. This episode originally aired in December,... 2020 so Dusty wasn't part of the team yet but Nate, Aaron, and Brian delved into important discussions like can wooly worms predict winter weather, what it takes to become a storm chaser, and the terminal velocity of a raindrop. We hope you enjoy revisiting this episode as much as we did.

Hey, what's up everybody?
This is, you know, the first episode we are not able to record because of weather, snow.
Hello everybody, Aaron Weber here, host of the Aaron Land Podcast, reporting from a snowy Nashville, Tennessee, unfortunately.
Hello, folks, and hey, Bear.
I hope you guys are doing well.
Sorry we didn't do an episode this week.
We are stuck at home, as you can see.
I think we could have done an episode.
I just don't think those guys know how to drive in snow.
We got a ton of it.
We're not great at it in Nashville, so no one can get anywhere.
So sorry to have to not be able to record one this week. We thought we could.
Since it's weather related, we thought we would re-air the episode on weather.
So check that out. It was a fun one. Dusty's not in it, but there was more of Aaron back then, so it all kind of evens out.
I hope you're having fun. I hope you're staying safe, staying warm.

to everybody that came. And this weekend I'm in Bozeman, Montana at Last Best Comedy. Coming out

Paul. And I thought, oh man, I can't wait for a little relief back in Nashville. And here's

been dealing with. So thank you for

Already just happened, so I hope you were there.
So, so,
uh,

We actually still have some comments though.

Yeah.
Just critical.
Picked a big one.
Open to the gate with a big one.

you see it's so you don't hit the siri button when you bend your wrist and i was hitting it a lot
so you you wear you put the dial back
here and he never touches it and then you can just change the screen now your sleeve's gonna touch it

but any other time it just always hits siri siri it's siri just pops up man all the time yeah you know what i started doing
you know with the new ios you can program tapping the back of the phone yeah to be siri you can do
it to anything but yeah i said it's siri for a while i i tapped the back of the phone accidentally
a lot you talked to siri quite a bit no well i didn't mean to i would just tap it and then
by accident then sir Siri would pop up.
I don't know.
I feel like with Siri, you either don't do it or that's all you do.
That's how someone talks to it.
I don't ever ask Siri anything.
I don't either.
But anybody else that does, my wife talks to Siri quite a bit.
Our voice texting, I get audio text. Yeah. I get that a bit. Who does that? David Spade. A get audio to text.
I get that a bit.
Who does that?
David Spade.
A lot of audio text.
The first time I got one from him, I was like,
oh, I guess I'm listening to this tech.
I don't mind it.
It's not as bad as you think.
It's like just saying it, and it doesn't take as much time,
and you just do it.
I actually don't mind it as much as I thought I would.
But at first I was like, what are we doing?
What are we doing here?
We've gotten comments that way.
And they're like, this is too long to type out.
So I'm just going to tell you.
And then I have to just play clip after clip after clip.
It's like the worst story ever.
Yeah.
Oh, and they know who story ever. Yeah. Oh,

Fantastic podcast.
I love listening to you, Banjo
and Aaron, at the beginning of every
operation day before I perform
complex spinal surgery.
Dude, we are...
What? I mean, he is...
Would you be...
What are you listening to? Nate Land
Podcast.
What's that? Are you the main guy,
or is there other guy?'s what they didn't they ask
him or you're just the guy that's in here now and there's another guy he's like no no i'm the main
oh yeah when's the real doctor coming out oh that's me wow i'm dr seftar khan hello folks
hello folks yells it into your open back hello. I perform complex spinal surgery.
It makes me laugh and puts me into a relaxed frame of mind before I start the day operating on sick patients.
Once during an especially complicated surgery when the room was very tense and we were under extreme stress, I just yelled, Penguin, to everyone's surprise.
I proceeded to tell the OR team the story and had them play the clip on the OR monitors,
and within minutes, everyone began chuckling.
The room became noticeably less tense.
And I'm grateful to report that patient did very, very well.
Thanks again for the unbelievable work you guys are doing.
Anytime you come up to Columbus in the future,
I'd love to host you in the shoe on the field
for an OSU Big Ten football game.
Wow.
I tell you what, a guy that's doing that kind of surgery,
he's got tickets on the field.
Yeah.
I mean, that's a guy you want in your life, you know.
What if we, he said, sadly, the patient did not make it,
but we were so much more relaxed.
I was hoping to introduce you guys to the patient,
but obviously with the chaos that was going on, we were.
We got real sloppy after that, And it was a real problem.
Pinewood.
That's unbelievable.
You know, we just did the episode you just watched about clutch performances.
That's a clutch performance right there.
Yep.
Doing something like that, man.
The amount of pressure that takes to just be, you know, you got to do hours and hours of it.
You want to be someone's first guy.
You think they ever say that right before you go under? They go, you it. You want to be someone's first guy. You think they ever say that?
Right before you go under, they go, you're my first time.
You're my first surgery.
They just whisper it to you, right?
The last thing you hear, what was the last thing you heard?
Hey, I've never done this before.
I remember I signed an autograph once, and I told the person, I go, this is the first
autograph I've ever signed.
Yeah.
And so I imagine that he does that I go this is the first autograph I've ever signed yeah and so I imagine
that he does that too this is the first he's like I'm freaking out man and he's like what is that
and then you're just gone yeah that's awesome though sore so gorb s-o-r-e s-o-g-E-S-O-G-O-R-B. Sogorb.
Soar Sogorb.

Soar Sogorb?
You think that is his real name?
Poor guy.
Soar?
Yeah.
Soar Sogorb.
I hope it is his name.
Oh, man.
Soar.
Get in here.
You have to say the last name or you just go Soar and he here every time i don't think you need to be any more specific sore uh he just sits there and the
teacher's like uh which one sigorb oh i thought it was the other sore i play your podcast while
working illustrating on my computer sometimes i spend large amounts of time without saving my progress because i forget to do so and then my computer crashes and i lose all my work

i haven't lost a single piece of work ever since that's got to be frustrating to i mean everybody
knows not saving something calilly. All the time.
When I've written out shows
like,
what's your way of my hat?
Nate Bargetti show
from the Feld.
We send a bunch of these hats
to Nigeria.
Isn't that where they send
things that don't go good?
President McCain hats too.
Atlanta Falcons,
Super Bowl,
like when they had
and then they lost
to the Patriots.
They, but yeah, you type something out it out I mean it's a whole you're just in the groove of like doing it
and then it just goes away and you're like and then the next time is never as good you're like
that's the gist of it and you're like it's not that good yeah well I I lost it miriam gregory i've been a fan of the podcast since day one is that you
think that's right these names all feel made up yeah miriam gregory source it feels like almost
we were short on comments and then so brian went in boat ramp went in and and then just said, just took. Sore Sigorm.
Sore Sigorm.
Miriam Gregory.
Oh, it's the worst name I've ever heard.
Oh, man.
That's a real name.
I don't think he's going to turn around, by the way.
Yeah.
Sore is different.
Maybe Sore?
Next one's Soda. seven which is these are all just george costanza names that he came up with source to go oh it's beautiful it is yeah
i got a good idea what that guy looks like uh i feel like you can you can picture a sore you can
picture him in your head.
You're like,
I feel like I've never,
I don't know what they look like,
but I think I could pick one.
Oh, right.
If you said there's 100 people
standing in the crowd,
one of them's named Soar,
I'd be like,
I feel pretty good.
I could figure out who he is.
If you lined up Dr. Khan,
Soar Sikor,
and me, Miriam Gregory,
I could tell you which one was Soar.
I'll tell you that much.
Would you...
Is sore male or female?
Sore feels like...
It's gender neutral, man.
If it's Sore, Sore would be a lovely lady.
Huh?
What?
You know, you don't think Sore's these are all i don't know these names are
these are our fans aaron that you're laughing at
sorry that's the worst thing i've ever heard
so well it's not if it's so race so gore sorey Segorb. Sorey Segorb. Like a Ukrainian ballet dancer or something.
Well, they could be big fans.
Sorey Segorb doesn't sound as bad.
That's what I'm saying.
That sounds like a ballet dancer from Eastern Europe.
Sorey.
Sorey Segorb.
That actually is a beautiful name now.
And I'm going to name my next daughter that.
We don't have another daughter.
Sorey Bargetzi?
Yeah, Sorey bargetzi yeah
so ray bargetzi i feel like i find some little girl sitting out now on the side of the road
and i she lives with us i feel like that's how you get a sore in your family you don't they're
not born into that family you find them and they and they're and they're they're put with that family.
Miriam Gregory.
Have we read this one?
No.
No, we started. I've been a fan of the podcast since day one.
I just want to say thank you for everything you've taught me.
Since hearing all of your bombing stories and insults,
I've been a lot better at taking myself less seriously.
I recently had the chance to sing on TV for the first time,
and I've never been more confident.
I felt like it would be okay to look stupid,
and it would be a good story until after,
but it went great.
So thank you.
Congratulations,
Nate,
Aaron and worried whistle.
I love you all.
We need to hear her.
Let's we need to get a clip of that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
See it on TV.
I'd love to see that.
Uh,
what did she say?
TV?
I don't know.
It's crazy.
Uh,
Jonathan red. It's crazy. Jonathan Redd.
That's a normal one.
Is that more up your alley?
You can't handle the taste of the fans we have around the world?
You need an Alabama Jonathan Redd, Johnny Redd.
Johnny Redd.
Does that make you feel better, Aaron?
You feel like home?
You and Johnny Redd went boat fishing.
It does sound like we're trying to fix the problem.
I'm just kidding.
It's Brian.
It's like, these names are getting a little too...
They might catch on to me after the Miriam Gregor.
This podcast seems like the elaborate plan of two best friends to get their other friend
to eat an excessive amount of donuts, and when they finally do, they will end the podcast.
They have been talking about it since episode one or two,
and I'm sure they thought Aaron would have done it by now.
I love the show.
It's the best part of my week.
Goodbye, folks.
Johnny Redd.
I've done it, just not on the show.
Johnny Redd.
He does it regularly.
We can't get him on.
It's like Bigfoot.
Can't really catch him on tape.
There's a lot of fuzzy images.
We put up trail cams.
As he goes and eats it in the woods
It's a shame
We can't figure out why but the trail cams can never get him
We don't know why but it never can
All we know is two boxes go in
And no boxes come out
We think he's littering as well
Yeah we're going to do it
That's going to be a special one
We got to find the right time
Right To do it Like I said I to be a special one. We got to find the right time to do it.
I don't think, like you said, I don't think we can eat on air.
I don't think that's going to be good.
I don't know if there's ever going to be a right time for me personally.
I think we film it, and then we filmed, and then we put it out.
Right.
I don't think there's ever a wrong time for you personally to do that.
I had Krispy Kreme this past week.
I have it a lot. I'm starting to feel it now though
i can feel like my blood's getting thicker you feel that it's like maple syrup yeah like you
just like i said i eat so bad you're like i feel like my blood's not moving as good as it
should be and i and i don't think i should feel that yeah i think about it i don't know
after though it didn't stop me,
but I remember going,
I got to stop this.
This is,
my arm feels weird.
Grant Weldon.
I teach fifth graders
and I have to switch classes
because the teacher rotates
now instead of students rotating.
Oh, wow.
So this teaches,
students stay in the room
and the teachers move.
Yeah.
Is that because of COVID? Mm-hmm. When I stay in the room, the teachers move. Yeah. Is that because of COVID?
Mm-hmm.
When I go into the class, I enter saying, hello, folks.
And they say, hello, Mr. Weldon.
It's so sweet, and they don't know why I do it, but I love it every time.
That's cool.
That's cool, man.
Good for you.
Good for you.
So they're just switching, moving around, almost spreading COVID around,
trying to give it to all the kids.
They don't.
One teacher has it.
We don't tell them which one, and they see if they can guess.
Mike Pugh.
Hello, folks.
When my wife and I married in 1978, there was a still law on the books in Michigan that the clerk had to ask, are you an idiot?
Thinking we were Bargetti-level comedians, we both said, I'm not, but this one is this one is while pointing our fingers at each other of course the clerk did not crack a smile i can only assume
she had heard that one she had heard that one before keep up the great work also we
love to see you guys live we just bought our son and his wife a ticket to the la drive-in show
mike pew will be at the drive-in show he was at the drive oh he was oh he was at the drive because we're
recording this hope you enjoyed it because we left early uh it's uh that is i are you an idiot
it's not a i'm not against that like crazy law in michigan i mean an idiot is technically a
mentally challenged person that maybe shouldn't be getting married. Yeah. And I'm not against it.
Yeah.
I asked both of y'all before we did this podcast,
are y'all idiots?
And I said, because I am.
And I don't need more than me.
That's not a, you know, not a,
not a just ask the person you're about to marry.
Just heads up real quick.
Are you an idiot by any chance?
I don't think it's on the books anymore. Cause i think people feel like mentally challenged people should be able to get married if they are you stupid a little more you know publicly acceptable
yeah if you are a big nateland fan you know that we've been drinking AG1 for a couple of years. We all started drinking
AG1 daily and really feel like we're doing something good for our daily health. That's

future of foundational nutrition, continuously refining their formula to create a smarter,
better way to elevate your baseline health. Not only did I replace my multivitamin with AG1, but I love that every
scoop also includes magnesium and B vitamins for energy support. It takes under a minute and costs
less than $3 a day, and it tastes great. If you're battling addiction, admitting you need help is the

Well, he carries
a lot of change. He's at the
age where you have change on you quite a bit. I've got some hard candy
in my pocket.
When she
says, oh gosh, sorry, and started picking up all the change,
I would, if once
she said something she if she said
something if she didn't say anything i would have just picked it up but if she said something like
that i would probably just be like just let her have it if it gets too too many people start
paying attention i mean this is a big commotion so then people start looking i probably would
have done what he did and just been like it's uh you know it's over that's one of those things
it's easy to be like oh i would have said this but in the moment you just think this is not worth is it worth it's how quick do you think i will i i a lot of times think about what would happen
like if i say it's mine and that she disagrees now in an argument over change on the floor right
and so do i want to be in that argument the only reason i feel like you should do it is to keep her
from feeling
awkward and scrambling to pick up all this.
No,
no,
no,
no.
That was on me.
Yeah.
Well,
you help her.
Yeah.
But she dropped the purse.
Put a purse.
Get out.
She pulled it.
He dropped the coins.
I would have done exactly what this guy did,
which is,
Oh,
he dropped it.
He goes,
no,
no,
that's fine.
Uh,
yeah.
$3 and quarters
is a lot 12 yeah and everybody loves to have quarters yeah quarters are that's about the only
change you want yeah i take one time i was driving down the road and there was a homeless guy
and i had all this change and i so he's going up asking for money and i go i don't have any bills but i got all this do you want all this change and he's
like uh yeah sure i give him this big handful of change and he goes thanks then i watch him just
walk away he takes about 10 steps and he just throws all the change wow yeah i love it yeah
that's pretty good he didn't want that change.
No.
Well, how much do you think you gave him?
Probably $3 worth.
In quarters?
But not in quarters.
No.
He would have kept the quarters.
Not in quarters.
He would have kept the quarters for sure.
You kept the quarters.
That's right.
Yeah.
NRS Automotive.
Is this a company?
NRS Automotive.
Since the podcast is a clean podcast podcast does it automatically rule out the possibility
of having some of your
potty mouth comic
friends as guests
for example
Big J
it does not
rule it out
if Big J was here
I don't necessarily
want to do a zoom
so that's why
you know
it's kind of got to be
people here
but if J comes to town
you know
I mean J could probably
stay with us
and if he stayed with us
I'd have him on the podcast
I would tell him you know it's like hey would you like stay with us. And if he stayed with us, I'd have him on the podcast.
I would tell him, you know, it's like,
hey, we try to be clean.
If he's not, I would just beep stuff out.
It's honestly what I would do.
But, I mean, Big Jay's done TV.
Big Jay's, it's close, though.
Big Jay would be tough. I mean, I know Big Jay's done some late night shows,
and it's hard.
But Big Jay's so funny.
We're talking about random things.
But there's something that's even harder to keep guys like that clean
is when they talk, especially because the bonfire,
which is him and Soder, so good.
And they're just talking.
So talking like this is where it's hard to control.
I always think if you're trying to stop cursing,
or if you say a lot of people in regular life could curse too,
they feel they curse too much in just regular life.
It's start weaning it out in some regular conversations.
Just think I'm going to go to this house and I'm not going to curse.
And that way you can learn to hold it back.
And that's how you practice it.
And so,
you know,
but yeah,
I would have Jay on.
Obviously.
I mean,
we'd be thrilled.
Get Laura on, you know, but yeah, I would have Jay on. Obviously, I mean, we'd be thrilled. Get Laura on, you know?
Get rid of, you know, who?
Hello, welcome to Nate Land.
This is Big Jay Oakerson and Laura Bergeson.
Would anyone notice if you didn't say that?
Would they?
I don't know.
Who's Jay?
Who's Laura?
Both offensive.

Hi, guys.
Question for an aspiring comic in Denver.
I haven't done stand-up since March.
I was about a year in at the time,
starting to find my voice on stage.
Cases are rising here again.
I just heard from a public official
they don't really anticipate the city being open again
until next June.
If you were faced with this as a newer comic, how would you handle it?
Would you pursue something else like a podcast or YouTube videos?
Or should I just move to the South where coronavirus isn't real in hopes of
getting on stage sooner?
Thanks for all that you guys do.
I would say,
you know, a year in, I, here's what I will honestly, my brutal opinion, you're not finding your voice.
That's just my honesty with being a year in.
You could think you're finding some voice, but I promise you're not.
It's going to change.
And then you're going to be in five years be like, that was insane.
But I think it's good to think you find your voice. It's good to go through all this.
Yeah, during this time, it's tough. You could start a podcast, you could do some YouTube stuff.
There's other different ways you could try to be creative. That's definitely not a bad thing to go
do. You can try to go to different places and move. You got a great scene in Denver, though.
Honestly, I'd probably wait it out unless you wanted to move. I mean, just go down and try to stay somewhere if you want to go try to get up.
But I mean, you got a great scene in Denver, man.
Denver's a hot spot to be for comedy.
I don't think anybody's getting up, so I don't think you're missing anything.
I mean, they're doing like some social distance shows at places.
But you're competing also with so many people
that have been doing it longer and no one's getting on stage so your competition is you know
guys i've done it for 17 years you will be trying to get on the same show i'm probably trying to get
on we're all trying to get on these shows uh so i i don't know if i i don't know if i'd make a big
move i i think it's not a bad to do you. I know guys are doing Zoom shows or make some videos,
try to do some stuff creative, write stuff.
It stinks, dude.
This is just a terrible time.
So I wouldn't do anything that's going to be hard to walk back.
Also don't know if anywhere is reliably 100% going to stay open all the time.
If you went to Atlanta, that stuff's going to close.
I mean, everything's popping up and closing. You don't want to to move and then it's all going to close it's like week by week
here man it go visit any minute go visit the city if you uh if you want to but that that's the only
thing i wouldn't make any sudden sudden big moves because of that but good luck to you and don't
give up on it don't quit this is this is one of the times that you're going to think, you know,
this would be a perfect excuse so you can tell everybody,
I tried it, I just didn't.
Hold out.
Everybody's having to hold out, so you hold out.
And just keep writing.
Keep trying to come up with stuff.
And then when you're ready, just hit the ground running and never stop.
John Hance.
Hello, folks.
I've been playing the YouTube version of the show in the background
on our living room TV
The past few weeks
My wife doesn't really
Pay much attention
But she catches the highlights
Because she loves Nate
And hears me laughing
All the time
After a couple days
I thought it'd be funny
To convince her
That Brandon
Is actually Nate's dad
I mean I already love this
She is the type
That can fall for anything
If I say it
With a straight face
She's a regular
Mick Movicki I added that in Without missing the beat She says Oh yeah that can fall for anything if I say it with a straight face. She's a regular Mick Moe Vicky.
I added that in.
Now, missing the beat, she says, oh, yeah, I can totally see that.
They don't look much alike, but you can just tell he's Nate's dad by the way he acts.
I couldn't explain Aaron's relation, so he is difficult.
He's officially just your neighbor who's quarantined and has nothing else to do but drop by and talk on the podcast.
I don't know how long I can keep this joke going but i'm literally dying every time i start the show and i would bet
good money you guys could read this comment on the show and say my full name and she still wouldn't

What's up with breakfast is whistling.
Oh, that's a brutal one.
So.
All right, we're doing it.
So this is the...
That was a good.
We got good comments yeah i know people
probably talk about the last week's show but uh you know i thought of another uh clutch performance
yeah paulo nails two home runs for that little boy in the hospital and then yeah and then what
about the next we get to catch one in his hat. I mean. Even more clutch.
I mean, how crazy is that?
Yeah.
What do you get?
I'm not even a home run hitter.
One's one thing.
Where do you get two from?
It's a great, one of my favorite Seinfeld moments is that. Yeah, it's so funny.
Is Kramer sitting in there with that kid.
Can I get that some orange juice?
He goes after the first hit.
He drinks this.
By the way, let it be known, kramer's a stranger to this kid and this kid has let his they let the i mean a stranger sitting there in alone
at the hospital with their child as they watch the yankee game and the kid was in he controlled
the whole room it's unbelievable i love it when kramer said i need you to do something for me
though he's like i know get out of this bed and walk someday he's like yeah yeah but i really need that car
yeah that'd be great but
weather is changing temperatures are changing it's cold here today in nashville last week was good
this week's cold uh we have no front door uh it's if you I explained that last week.
If you listen to it, our front door is gone.
It's still very funny to me to think they knocked on the door.
For someone to knock on your door and then ask for the door
is one of the wildest things I've ever been asked.
Anything could have asked for anything.
If you told me what you want me to take i could have almost said anything just don't take the door obviously because we need the door and that's what they came for uh so weather's changing
and we wanted to do an episode on weather you guys want to see if we can you know can these
guys talk about weather for an hour and a half i don't know maybe uh i think so we talk about a lot of dumb stuff right for a long time that's the point of
all this that's why we like coming up with these weird things because it's it makes it you know
you need stuff to go off of you just need we need well we've got a weatherman on the podcast
i mean so that helps you helps. You did it.
I did it once in college.
You did it professionally.
That's all it takes.
That's more than enough.
Was it professionally? The way Miriam sang on TV.
She said I sang on TV.
You posted that video of Bates doing it in college.
But I worked at a TV station.
Yeah.
Why did you do it?
Were you filling in?
No, it was a class we took.
It was like a broadcasting class.
So that wasn't on TV?
No, I don't think that was on TV.
Oh.
That kind of takes the thunder out of it.
I've got some clips of me doing the news in college that I could bring in.
Yeah?
Bring it in.
But I could show you.
Yeah, I think the fans are dying for it.
I.
Watching George's home videos.
They're just trying to change you?
What are you, like eight?
You were, were they on TV?
Or they were just, they were on TV.
The college TV?
Yeah.
But they were in Murfreesboro throughout.
Yeah, so everybody saw it at home.
Yeah.
Did your family see it?
They didn't live in Murfreesboro, so they couldn't see it.
But I recorded it, and that's why I have it now on VChestix.
What was the TV thing that you did?
Did y'all both do it?
The Circle Network.
The Circle Network.
Oh, it's so good.
Describe how you So
Were you on it too?
Yeah
He hosted one of them
Hosted a couple episodes
So
Alright
Take it easy
He goes
Yeah
I created it
Oh okay
Sorry
So they did
Some stand up
On a
TV show
TV taping
Did it at Zany's
Yeah
All real done
Taping Camera I mean you know How would I watch it? What would you tell people? on a TV shows, TV taping, did it at Zany's. Yeah. All real done taping cameras.
I mean,
you know,
how would I watch it?
What would you tell people?
Go to channel 4.5,
but you got to have,
uh,
that's the,
but that's a good channel 4.5.
You're like,
that seems weird.
Never heard of that being called a channel,
but you got to have an antenna.
Oh,
you got to get your TV remote and switch the input settings to,
uh,
well,
I guess it depends on how your settings are usually to TV antenna and then
turn to channel 4.5 and then look up when it airs.
Right.
That's all.
Oh,
that's yeah.
It's not too many hoops.
So basically that's locally though.
Yeah.
Get your,
so if you're in Nashvilleashville yeah and you want
to watch them on the circle network uh get rid of your cable here's the first thing i need you to do
yeah you gotta have over there you direct tv out in the yard switch to tv i see real scrambly you're
like that's not good yeah hang on go to. Go to, you know, where Channel 4 and Channel 5 is?
I need you to go right in the middle of that.
You got to have an antenna, though.
Oh, yeah, you got to have an antenna.
Yeah.
Well, it didn't air in Nashville for a while.
Yeah, at first.
I made my television debut, didn't know about it,
couldn't watch it in the city that it's based in.
For a Grand Ole Opry channel.
That's what the network is.
There's people that just know how to get to this channel.
There's an audience that watches this
channel because it's the Grand Ole Opry channel.
It's very funny. It wasn't on in Nashville originally.
It was just an awkward kind of
rollout because it's a brand new station.
It was weird. Now,
if you go most
places around the Southeast and even some of the Midwest, you'll see it on the cable listing. At the time, it was weird now it's if you go most places around the southeast
and even some of the
midwest it's on
you'll see it
on the cable listing
but at the time
it was like
I couldn't tell
I made my TV debut
I couldn't watch
I didn't watch it
did anybody text you
that like saw it
like randomly
one person told me
but no
I didn't get paid
I had one
a thing in Boston
on
Nesson New England Sports Network,
and they did a comedy show.
We just did jokes about sports.
It was shot in Boston.
Kid and Play.
Maybe Kid?
I don't know.
Jason?
Huh?
Jason Kid?
Who's the comic?
No, Kid.
Is it Kid and Play? Kid C cutty no uh from the movie in
the 80s yeah kid and play kid and play and one's a comedian i didn't know that yeah i think the
one with the big high top yeah the lighter skin one are you allowed to say that i don't know
but the black men county uh it's the yeah so i don't yeah who's is he that's kid
anyway so he wasn't even there i don't know what i'm talking about uh
he uh he's a comedian and he went on i had to follow him and uh
he had a rough go at it.
Let me tell you that.
I don't think he's much of a comedian.
Yeah.
And so he was pretty bad.
Like he was just like jumping around.
Like it was,
it was like,
they told him like do stuff on sports.
And he's like,
every joke's kind of just got sports attached to it a little bit.
You know,
I was flying the other day.
They had a sports game on TV.
Anyway,
can you believe they're selling the peanuts and the thing?
We were watching the sports.
Everybody had a playoff throw.
Can you – what is up with these flight attendants, you know?
This girl comes by, peanuts,
and then some guy was watching football towards the front.
And then, like, that's the only way it's going to –
that's the only way he's including sports.
Because the other day, my wife's cheating on me she i went we were watching baseball it doesn't matter and the other day i go home and my my kid
who doesn't like sports but he he just keeps saying and they're like i don't know if these
are sports related jokes they're not really based in sports stuff. Right. And he's like,
yeah,
kind of.
I've done that.
He has like some themed standup shows here in town.
Like do all Christmas jokes.
So you're like,
anyway,
last Christmas I was at McDonald's and I went through the drive through and
do your big,
nothing to do with Christmas.
I,
I,
you can,
I do love,
cause I do it too.
I always love thing that, that comics do is if, I always love the thing that comics do,
is if you've got a seasonal joke, how to get it back around.
And, like, because you can do it, like, I mean, it's in peak form
when you've got some great Christmas joke,
and you're like, Christmas season's coming.
You have about probably November to February that you could say Christmas just happened or Christmas season's coming, where it's the joke that seems timely.
And then those other months, you got to like, you know, what's your favorite holiday?
Mine? Christmas.
And then you got to find a new way to do it.
I love seeing that.
I worked with a comic who I worked with during the summer and every show he
opened up with a joke about how hot it was and then I worked with him several months later the
winter and I was like I'm looking forward how is he good yeah he goes man it's cold out remember
how hot it was in the summer yeah yeah did I tell the the ponytail thing yeah. Stu Horn in it. Did I tell the- The ponytail thing? Yeah. Yeah, I love that.
I've told it on this.
I think so.
I don't know if on the podcast.
Yeah.
I'll tell.
If I've told it, I'm sorry.
My favorite of that kind of moment was when I was first starting, I moved to Chicago first.
And when I would come home, I would then do...
I never did comedy before here, like I said,
but when I came back, I would be the guy that came back from Chicago.
I'm doing comedy in Chicago.
We'd go to the bar car, which was this open mic.
Every time I came back, I would go up and do those shows.
This one guy...
One time when I came back in between Chicago and New York,
it might have been during that time, but I kind of just lived here for four months to save
money to move to New York. And so I'm back here, we're doing the bar card. This guy has a ponytail
and he just did, we're open micers. So no one, everybody only really has maybe three to five
minutes of material. And so we're all doing our jokes and he would just do jokes on ponytails that's all he did
he had a ponytail i don't remember the jokes but he's like talking about having a ponytail what
it's like having a ponytail full five minutes of just ponytail material so next week he shows up
his ponytail is gone he has no ponytail he cut it off and so we're like what are you going to do
all you've ever done is ponytail stuff and he was like offended and we asked he goes i have other stuff and we go okay so they brought him up
he opens it first joke he does is not about the ponytail it's about nothing it bombs hard and then
he goes so i used to have a ponytail and then just does all his ponytail stuff. His ponytail's gone.
That was his best stuff, so he's like, I can't belt.
I love that it was that quick.
The first joke is about nothing.
He just got, and he goes, all right, so I used to have a ponytail.
He just does his ponytail material, which it doesn't work.
The other one, did I ever talk about this?
I don't remember.
The Happy Birthday to Ru. like they ever say that story uh it's probably offensive i don't know
it's not my joke but when i was in new york this comic he used to run we would we would run at the
improv or broadway comedy club now we dustin chafin who's about to have a, actually, uh, has a Zoom, uh, has a Zoom
special out that he's putting out actually now, uh, cause this is coming out next week.
And I think it's coming pre pre-sales, uh, was just last Friday.
And so it's coming out, uh, now Zoom comedy with Dustin Chafin.
Go to his, his, yeah.
So, uh, it's not that, but it's, yeah, it's Twitter. And so, uh, I'll promote it to you, yeah. So it's not that, but it's Twitter.
And so I'll promote it to you next week.
But I started with him.
Look, I'm the main first podcast right there.
He's got a podcast, I'll Leave You With This.
And so Dustin is who I started with.
Dustin was a huge part of my comedy career and helped me do it.
So he does, I don't know if any of this is it,
but we're trying to find it online if you're looking.
But I'll promote it next week.
But he's a comic that I started with,
and he is putting out a Zoom comedy of 2020.
It's a different way because it's the way we have to do it now.
So anyway, so we'd run a show at midnight,
and it was this ed edgy it was uncensored show which i always had to do and was never i never needed to be censored so he this other guy would run a show uptown and he would always
just come and like if his show wasn't like doing good he'd be like hey he'd call he'd like call me
and i was just running the show i was helping dustin'd be like, hey, he'd call me. And I was just running the show.
I was helping Dustin run the show.
And I remember he'd call me and be like, hey, can I bring,
we have only three people to show up for the show tonight.
I'm going to bring them down to your show, and then can I get on stage?
So he'd barter with me.
Maybe a couple times you'd be like, okay.
But we were like, Dustin's show was like, I mean, it was like a packed,
it would be midnight dude
and we would be sold out in this upstairs room that was probably my favorite room in new york
it was just this box and it was just i mean when it was packed dude you would murder in there it
was so awesome and you would all just be there these are the stuff that i miss about new york
is just you'd be you'd be out there till two in the morning and just doing these shows just so much fun a bunch of comics hanging out everybody kind of ends their night there after
they do shows and so he would always call me and be like and we just start being sold out he's like
I got two people and I'm gonna bring them down can I get up and you're like I don't I'm like dude
we're sold out I don't need but he's just trying to get stage time and I remember he always had to
ride the train down with these people these are just audience members but he's just trying to get stage time. And I remember he always had to ride the train down with these people.
These are just audience members that he's like, just come ride with me.
I'll take you to another show.
And they're, you know, it's almost like the quarter thing falling where you're just kind of like, all right, I guess I'm riding with this guy.
And then you're just on the way down.
So anyway, so he had this joke.
And it's probably insulting.
I don't, you know, it's a very hacky joke. So, but he would say, if you went and had your birthday party at a Chinese restaurant,
how would they, you know, they sing it, happy birthday to Rue, happy birthday to Rue.
Like, that's the joke that they don't say, they say ours.
And so he would start it.
He'd be like, all right, who's got a birthday in here?
One night we were not, there's not that many people there.
He goes, all right, who's got a birthday in here?
And no one raises their hand. He goes, nobody has a birthday in here? One night, we were not, there was not that many people there. And he goes, all right, who's got a birthday in here? And no one raises their hand.
He goes, nobody has a birthday in here?
Nobody.
And no one's raising their hand.
And he goes, you, you have a birthday?
He goes, my birthday was two weeks ago.
He goes, what about you?
He's like, my birthday's like seven months from now.
He's like, nobody has a,
and I mean, it's almost,
it's just like,
everybody's like looking like,
just do the joke, man.
And he's like, nobody has,
there's some, you know, some guy finally just goes man. Like, and he's like, nobody has some,
you know,
some guy finally just goes,
I mean, my cousin's birthday is next week.
He's like,
all right,
all right.
So if you took your cousin to have birthday at a Chinese restaurant,
here's how they would sing it.
Happy birthday to you.
Happy birthday to you.
Happy birthday,
dear customer.
And then everybody's like,
okay.
And then he's like, all right, good night, leaves and so i just remember i remember thinking why i i don't want
to ever do a joke where i have to have someone in the crowd go with it it sounds like he didn't
even need that part of the no he doesn't at all hey you ever been in chinese restaurant here's
how they sing happy birthday yeah right yeah i mean you could yeah anything but he just does it you're like i mean the joke's
already just disgustingly hack like it's not a good joke but it's like the idea that he has to
bring someone in on it and then someone's finally like i mean dude people could just tell like
someone just say it's your birthday yeah this guy's not leaving and he's trying to leave yeah
there's a jay big speaking jay jay had a story the angel angel sal salador salazar here is he was in
uh uh scarface he's a comedian and he would always do that where he'd have some girl about uh
angel salazar and he would have uh he would always talk to someone he'd be like hey big guy hey big
guy he talked to like so he pointed you he's like hey big guy you'd be like hey what's up
and so he does it and he always goes hey big guy and he goes hey big guy and no one's the guy's
not saying anything he goes big guy and the guy's like looking around he goes hey big guy he's like
oh you mean me he goes hey big guy he's like i mean i'm not that big of a he's like my
size he's like he's like i'm not that big of a guy i just i thought you'd be when you say big
guy it's usually someone bigger yeah and but angel never talks to him he just goes hey big guy and
he finally has to go okay he goes you got a girlfriend he's like i don't because i don't
have a girlfriend right now he goes you got a girlfriend he goes i don't i don't have a girlfriend right he goes hey big guy you got a girlfriend you guys like i don't
i i get i got a girlfriend he goes that you go and then he said something about your girlfriend
i'm uh sex with your girlfriend the joke is like that yeah it's just an insult but he just
he wouldn't let the i mean just the the guy to go don't, the guy's talking more than he is.
I don't, I'm not that big of a guy.
Hey, big guy.
Hey, big guy.
Because I don't, I'm not that, you know, you talking about me?
Hey, big guy.
He just, he's, it's a guy that's done this joke 10,000 times and is like a robot that just doesn't, he just can't get out of it.
Everyone's big guy.
Everyone's big guy.
Hey, big guy. Hey, big guy.
Hey, big guy.
Yeah, it's like, shut him off, man.
The other one, someone getting in that mode was,
who was the movie voice guy?
Michael Winslow?
No.
Oh, Pablo Francisco.
Pablo Francisco.
I mean, sadly, if you can watch a clip of that,
you don't have to show the clip.
I don't want to show it. But if anybody wants to look it up, they can.
But he, he like has a, he has major drug problems and had just lost it on stage.
And so his thing, right, was always like, hello, I am movie phone.
And I mean, this dude made a career.
I mean, it is, he's very talented, obviously.
He can do a bunch of stuff, but would just tour around,
sell out these places for a long time, made tons of money,
but had major drug problems.
He was at Punchline Sacramento.
I was there the week after him.
Oh, really?
He was on stage in his video of it, and he's just so whacked out
on just so much stuff.
The opener has to go back up there and
he keeps going hello i am no they want to hear it now and everybody he's like you got to go man you
know you don't know what's good he's like hello he just keeps doing the same movie phone joke over
that was the sad one but it's like crazy to be like you're just in this routine that that's what
i'm always scared of being i'm gonna just be up there in starbucks and i went to iced coffee with milk and i'm just like in a corner just going iced coffee whipped cream whipped
cream whipped cream whipped cream i just keep saying it over and over in some corner brian
comes out as a head nick you should probably leave the state yeah no no they want to hear
i'm gonna get myself out of this i'm gonna get myself out of this here we go that's what we like
he still knew that he was kind of bombing bombing while he was still trapped in that loop.
It's kind of fascinating.
There's not a comic on earth that doesn't think
the crowd's bad.
I'll get them.
Yeah.
I'll get them.
I mean, that's every comic.
You go, hey, this crowd's terrible, man.
And you go, I mean, I'm sure they're terrible for y'all,
but I'll get them.
And then usually you go, oh, no, they're terrible.
And then you go off and go, I know what you're thinking, but I promise they're terrible.
And then you go, I got them.
And then usually one person gets them and is like, I thought they were great.
I thought they were great.

I watched a movie about it.
They were filming this, what was the show?
Was it Storm Chaser's show?
Twister?
No.
Yeah, yeah.
That was a documentary.
I thought that was real.
No, there was a TV show about storm chasing.
And during it, it showed them how they all lived.
They stayed in these hotels and they'd get up every day
and go chase tornadoes.
And it was on Discovery. It was awesome was awesome and during it they were filming they're
trying to film this 3d they're like they had a car that they're trying to basically get in a tornado
and then film this imax version of this tornado and so one guy that was a part of the storm
chasers was with them being like hey we're trying to shoot this as a movie can we go with you
and so they made a car.
The guy had a car that was designed to like,
when the tornado's over it,
it goes down to the ground.
It was almost like you could get no wind under it
to lift it.
And the movie was played at the Huntsville,
at the Space Center.
You'd see it at a science museum or something like that.
And I went and saw it.
It was fun to watch it and then go,
oh, this is the movie that they were trying to make and i watched the show okay yeah that's kind
of like uh your jokes when you watch them be informed like on the podcast and then you get
to go see the final thing you get to see the final thing which is like you're in on it like you were
in on it all right so you can do it as a hobby you uh if you want get in contact the national
weather service and they got some programs if you want. Get in contact with the National Weather Service, and they've got some programs.
If you want to do it as a profession,
they say it's important.
No, most people don't make a lot of money.
Average salary starting out, $18,000.
Okay.
Many storm chasers support themselves with a second job
or do it seasonally.
$18,000.
Yeah.
So you have to get certified i
would i would love it i would you wouldn't want to go i mean see a real tornado man that just would
be and like insane what do you do how what do you do you try to get inside of it or what do you what
do you do i mean it's kind of what the title is is you chase the you're chasing it but what's do
you get all i think you're trying to, you don't go away.
And now if it comes after you, you're going to move.
How close do you get to it?
You just want to follow it at a certain distance?
Yeah, yeah.
They know how to get, they get where they can really film it.
I mean, the guys that are, some are doing it, like, you know,
the movie Twister where they're trying to get something taken up in the,
but I mean, there's people that are trying to, think get that close because just to understand a tornado but when you see them
it's always like most cars going this way and then one car going towards it yeah and they're and
they're trying to get near it and so they they see a tornado they're trying to go to the tornado
justin smith who i was with uh who's with me on the One Night Only tour, he lives in Oklahoma.
And so we were there when the tornado came.
And I know I say tornado.
So I know because I say winda.

I'm usually like a, I try to be like a 10 a.m. to noon flight guy.
And I had, I left at like, I didn't go to sleep.
I just went to the airport and left at 530.
And that big one came through that day.
I would have never got out.
Wow.
I mean, I like, you know, I'm not saying I would have died, but it would have been, I would have been stuck. I mean, that came through that day. I would have never got out. Wow. I mean, I'm not saying I would have died,
but I would have been stuck.
I mean, that came through.
It was one of the worst, you know?
Wow.
But you have the one, the big one here.
Earlier this year?
Yeah.
No, not this year.
There was one this year, but then the one in,
there was one at night.
That's the craziest one.
We had one come through Williamson County at night, and a lady died.
Those are – that's the scariest thing on earth because you don't know.
Yeah.
Well, there was one that came through here March 3rd through downtown,
and, yeah, it came right over us.
We've got the footage.
Well, that's what I shot from my deck.
I mean, you can't see a ton.
When will you be able to show this footage?
Will Brian not allow it?
We'll see.
Breakfast is like the MLB.
He doesn't want his own footage.
Why is that?
That's Transformer.
That's like the tornado.
You're tracking it by the explosions.
So you don't know where it's at until you see an explosion,
and the explosions happen you don't know where it's at until you see an explosion and the
explosions happen because of it yeah a tornado at night is you don't even think about it because
it's i don't think they're like super super common yeah right all right we can mute it and just uh
we it's like trying to talk someone on the phone when they're in the wind you ever call someone
and you're like oh okay i can't and they're in the wind. You ever call someone and you're like, okay, I can't.
I mean, as far as a tornado, and you're like, all right, it's fine.
But I shot myself.
Did it show the tornado?
I saw the explosions.
Yeah, but it's just funny how you just kind of just so blew it off.
I didn't blow it off.
I saw the explosions.
I don't know what else you want me to do.
We have a podcast that has to keep going.
I can't stop and admire with silence and there's
just wind blowing at the thing so i was like all right just cut the wind out it's i saw the
explosions that was the tornado right what was it going through there yeah yeah and what else
happened after that well i mean the obviously it just destroyed everything in its path and it kind
of went right our power was that the video of it destroying everything yeah in its path, and it kind of went right over. Our power went out. Yeah, is that the video?
Of it destroying everything? Yeah.
In the path?
Was that the rest of it?
The one that you're so mad at me
for not watching the end of it?
Is that what I missed?
It's just so funny.
Like, I have a first-hand experience
of you just moved on
because you kept talking about other stuff.
No, no, I talked about it.
We watched 20 seconds of it.
Then it was just wind noise.
And there's people that can't see this video at home.
I don't know if y'all know how a podcast works,
but people are not watching this.
They're not all in this room.
So we have to keep it moving.
And y'all just like, all right, dude, why don't, okay.
I guess you don't want to play my wind noise of this dark tornado that no one can,
you can't even see on the screen.
You can't see it up there.
You could see it.
You could see it move across here that night, but I get what you're saying.
No, it's fine.
It did sound like, you know, somebody's like speakerphone.
Like, yeah, I'm going down the interstate.
The car's rolled down.
Roll those windows up a little bit?
He's like, oh, you've been talking to him for an hour?
Are you outside? No, the windows are down.
You mean you could have stopped this, dude?
You could have stopped it by rolling the windows up
and you did it?
Alright, Brian's heroin.
Go ahead.
Heroin experience? Is it heroin?
I don't know.
Heroin?
Oh.
I'll say a heroin experience.
I thought you said heroin.
And a heroin experience.
Pretty different.
You got video of your heroin experience.
Let's watch that.
Well, if he shows down on that video, you're going to see a heroin experience.
Because he lives, there's all the the drug drug
addicts live right below him well so you could have got both here's a harrowing experience and
here's a heroin experience and you just show up and down because it wasn't at all like on your
street you would see fights and i'd see a lot yeah yeah there's a lot going on. Yeah. You can rent this apartment on Airbnb.
You know, the 2011 super breakout tornado was the worst in U.S. history.
The one that went through Alabama and Tuscaloosa and all that.
Right.
Yeah.
So we were, those are such crazy, crazy tornadoes. We were doing shows at Stardome that weekend.
Oh, yeah.
I was there with angela and we went
over to tuscaloosa and she bought a bunch of supplies and we delivered it to people there
but we just got to go through the damage and it was just so great we've had it with my high school
donaldson christian academy uh has been hit with a flood and a tornado and so the last one that
came through this year just ripped my high school up just ripped it
up bad and we're trying to do a show for them and then covet happened they just really got dealt
a bad hand and uh i know everybody's still there and so it was brutal but i drove over there
and if you go through you know i almost i i took uh my daughter and it's almost like not a bad you
know i don't know it's it's all a bad, you know, I don't know.
It's all a bad thing, but, like, for a kid to see, I don't know,
maybe it could go do different ways.
But I think it's, like, good for them to see it.
Right.
You know, just to be like, look, this is serious.
You know, look, these people.
What we noticed is it's always the bathroom,
the middle of the house is always up in most places.
It's kind of crazy to think, like, you see a bathtub, and the walls in the middle yeah and these houses are level i mean just level not you
know we got some wind damage on the roof i mean the whole thing's gone uh we had i remember the
so the one that came through nashville my senior year in high school, 97. And, right? 97? 98. 98.
So I'd been right in the middle of Volunteer State Community College,
getting no credits, taking speech.
And I remember I had to go pick up.
We had one that came down.
God, we've had a bunch of them.
I actually remember another time.
One came down our street, an old house we used to live on.
But this one was a huge one that came through Nashville.
Yeah, there's a great video of that downtown.
We're good with the video.
All right.
No, I'm joking.
If there's a video of that, show that video.
They, maybe it won't be at night.
This one was during the day.
But so I remember watching this one.
So it was 1998.
And I remember it came through Old Hickory.
I was thinking Andrew Jackson's house, the Hermitage,
all these trees.
You used to not be able to see the house from the road
because there's so many trees.
And now you can see the house.
And I always thought that was like, that's so crazy.
It took that many trees out.
And I remember my mom called me it was like go
get i went and picked my sister up she was in elementary school and i went and picked her up
and then my aunt i think was at our house maybe i don't remember no it was me my brother and uh
my sister and i went out back and was filming trying to see if i would get anything and when
it was like happening yeah
and i mean nothing anything came up directly over near us to really see it but you were at channel
five yeah that's footage right there from channel five yeah i remember seeing this on the news uh
if you're watching this we'll post again we'll post some of this stuff in the instagram stories
or anything uh but went right through downtown yeah right through downtown
yeah that one was crazy that girl's trying to open the door and they can't get it open for her
and the train is coming down the street that's our front lobby at yeah at 10 0 5 you were there
you were in that building yep and was it just like a train yeah i mean we all went down to the
basement yeah uh so but yeah it was crazy it knocked this like this off there and then the
building here hit twice the flood of 2010 yeah i mean it's uh when you're you know when you're
that kind of stuff it's so helpless it's just something coming through whether that's what's
so crazy it's such a there's nothing you can do. Anything that, you know, obviously a robbery.
Like, I don't know.
There's just stuff you could stop it.
There's things to stop.
Fire, you can put, you know.
I mean, there's nothing to do with the fire that's roaring,
but there's at least hope.
Like, there's something.
A tornado, for some reason, like, earthquake feels the same way.
We feel an earthquake.
The whole earthquake was the most helpless I've ever felt because it's everywhere.
You can't run from it.
You can't not, you know.
You can step here, it's there. You can't run from it. You can't not, you know, you step here, it's there.
You could run half a mile during an earthquake.
You could fill that whole half.
Like that's.
Was this when you lived in L.A.? Yeah.
We went to L.A.
We felt one in New York too.
And in New York what happened, Laura was working in one of the big buildings.
And she felt it.
But the one in earthquake, the first one I ever felt was wild, man.
I mean, it was unbelievable.
It's, fill an earthquake. There's, you know, people in California don't even think about them. one in earthquake the first one i ever felt was wild man i mean it was unbelievable it's uh
filling earthquake there's you know people in california don't even think about them but if you have never felt you've never felt you felt one i did a terrible gig in oklahoma
the whole weekend was so terrible the only thing i got excited about we had an earth like i felt
my first earthquake oh yeah yeah it's crazy my hotel room yeah yeah if someone it's hated the
gig but i love that i felt earthquake yeah
i hope this the highlighting trip was a natural disaster i hope this plane flies right into a
mountain that's you just hope i hope this earthquake sucks us all under uh it's uh
yeah these tornadoes the uh the craziest one uh where's the one in Missouri? It's the biggest one.
Yeah, Joplin?
Joplin.
Joplin goes through.
I mean, this thing is enormous.
It's, you know, I think it's like a quarter of a mile.
Yeah.
2011.
Yeah.
It goes through, I mean, it's the big, it's an E is that what they say e5 yeah ef5 tornado and i mean
it's just like it's so big that it's like that's not it keep just scroll through it real fast and
see if you just see it's so big that it just looks like dark clouds yeah like that's how big it is and el reno oklahoma has the widest tornado ever
recorded 2.6 miles wide i mean that's just wiping out that's just wiping out of town dude yeah i
mean that's that's your you're right that's the scary thing about these is you literally it hits
and you're like well we just got to wait it out yeah we can't do anything about it do anything
about it there's nothing you can do it's so crazy uh see these base hunter guys i ain't gonna get him he could be one of the maybe we'll do that
as the naitland you know we need somebody to come with us nait hunters tornado hunters tornado
hunters tornadoers what are you guys riding the flying flying penguin? And then we have a penguin that we drive in
that's shaped that can handle the wind.
See, I'd be much more willing to do something
with a tornado than just about any other natural disaster.
Why?
Hurricanes terrify me.
The water element of it terrifies me.
There's so much.
I mean, they're hundreds of miles across.
Them coming in, they're slow, too.
Like, you see them, and you're like, here it comes.
Oh, yeah, here it comes.
And you can't do anything about it.
You can't do anything about it.
It's happening.
You can move.
A tornado, you know, you can get away from it.
I feel like you're mocking tornadoes.
No, I mean, look.
I mean, I don't.
You can't just drive a mile to the left and be away from a hurricane.
You can leave three weeks before they say it gets here.
I have a joke about that.
It's got a heads up notice of, hey, guys, there's a tornado that's out in the ocean bothering nobody.
We think it's going to come here in about a month.
If you guys could gather your stuff, some of you could probably sell your home.
You have enough time to sell your home.
That's my joke.
Is it what you say?
Yes.
Yeah.
In Nashville, you could already sold your home for more than you asked for
and be living somewhere else.
By the time the hurricane gets there?
Yeah.
Hey, that's fair.
I'm talking about in the context of being a storm chaser and going to work.
Yeah.
Well, if you go down there and stand in the in the field
of winds i think it's it does it's relentless the hurricane but again you're putting yourself in it
so that's why the fear of it i don't understand tornado just happens it's there it's on top of
you so you know yeah but hurricane you have to go put you can avoid a hurricane for the rest of your
life you can avoid a tornado pretty easily
dude
how?
I've never
come across one
I've been
doing much
it's been working for me
dude
it's been working for me
you've never had
we've had them come through
I'm from Alabama
there are always
but I've never
never been up
in one's face
no I know
I don't know how to word that
yes
the odds of
but your odds are just
your odds of a hurricane is zero as long as you don't know how to word that. Yes. The odds of... But your odds are just... Your odds of a hurricane is zero
as long as you don't go near it.
But a tornado,
you're always walking around
with the odds of a tornado can happen.
It's just on the table.
And some...
Tornadoes can happen.
Some parts of the country, yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, we get a ton of them here.
Oklahoma gets...
We get like 90% of the world's tornadoes,
I think, right?
What do you mean by we?
I pulled that number out of nowhere. The United States. Oh, I thought you meant the world's tornadoes, I think, right? What do you mean by we? Yeah.
The United States.
How many spiders are near us right now?
Because I think tornadoes elsewhere in the world are fairly rare.
Yeah.
It's like an American phenomenon.
You don't have them.
That's right.
It's our thing.
Go USA.
I don't think you have them west of the Rockies, do you?
I don't know.
No one ever says west of the Rockies that much anymore.
That's where you have the earthquakes.
I'd have to think about where that's even.
I mean, that's like south of the, I mean, that's, I don't know.
Mostly Sunbelt stuff, right?
Yeah, like what are you talking about?
I don't know.
In the Tennessee Valley?
Yeah, yeah.
talking about this?
I don't know.
In the Tennessee Valley?
Yeah, yeah.
That's like... West of the Iraqis.
Yeah.
West of Mississippi.
You guys get it.
What about West of Mississippi?
I don't go that far.
Yeah.

for life no i'm saying this you're you're like you you don't you you don't respect tornado i hope a
tornado follows you home tonight i hope it drives right behind your car then i just go i just go
kind of fast and i'd outrun it no problem yeah and it wouldn't pick up an ocean how fast would
you go i say i would never get pulled over by the cops i'm not going i mean you'd be watching
west wing doesn't even see it hey that's. There's a great hurricane storyline in West Wing.
You tell me it's insane to be more afraid of a hurricane than a tornado?
Tornadoes are a surprise.
Hurricanes are, it's, you know, I mean, hurricanes are bad and people stay.
But a lot of times when it happens, they either, look, they can't move.
There's circumstances.
They go tell them, even Katrina, they tried.
They were getting everybody out.
I'm just not saying it tears up a whole town.
Hurricanes do way more damage.
But as far as a human being dying, I mean, a tornado just could pop up on us right now.
It could be right behind.
Is there one right behind me right now?
I mean, it could be that easy that you just don't look.
He's always just looking and coming. They come out of think about the ones at night dude it's at night that one
that came through winston county i remember we we harbors asleep uh we just went in like the
middle closet of the house and uh we just kind of sat in there because we didn't know how long
it was going to be and i was watching watching. It's like 2 in the morning.
And it's just pitch black dark.
I mean, people don't even know that you could be looking at it.
And you wouldn't know until you flew away.
Like, you know.
Well, you might hear it.
We hear loud noise, yes.
But you don't know the idea of it.
It's not going here.
I come, chug, chug, chug, chug, chug, chug, chug.
It's making a little chugging noise. You his the video his video is great video brian shot if you even cared about it
and it's a video about wind sound uh and they you would see those sparks well those sparks
aren't heads up the sparks is i'm on you i'm on top of you yeah
so that's you know that you're seeing the tornado fly crazy that's fair so how many earthquakes do
you guys think we had in tennessee last year zero seven three hundred and one no who's what are they
counting they have a ton of small there's the small ones all the time like East Tennessee like you just barely feel them
yeah
you feel them though
in East Tennessee
like yeah
300
let's say I've never
I don't
I don't know if I've felt one here
I don't think I've felt one here
either
but
so California
they keep preparing
for the big one
so
the last really big one
they had was
I guess 1994 depending on what you consider big which cost 72 deaths were the big one. So, uh, the last really big one they had was, uh,
I guess 1994,
depending on what you consider big,
which cost 72 deaths.
But the big one they think will hit will be 44 times stronger than that one.
That was the,
the world series game.
Now that four series is 89.
Oh,
um,
so they have a 48% chance of the big one hitting within the next 30 years
on the San Andreas Fault.
And so if that hits, what happens?
A major death destruction.
That's not good.
I joked that California would fall into the ocean.
Yeah.
That was from Superman 1.
That's what he said.
Well, there was a missile that went to California.
But they say it won't fall in the ocean,
but there's going to be major, major destruction.
For just California? Well, the West Coast. Will we feel it here? The West Coast. No. East of the say it won't fall in the ocean, but there's going to be major, major destruction. For just California?
Well, the West Coast.
Will we fill it here?
The West Coast.
No.
East of the Rockies won't.
East of the Rockies.
So we're good east of the Rockies.
Yeah.
But if you're in it, it's like all of California fills this.
Oh, yeah.
All the West Coast.
Yeah.
Every state, every part, and it just is like, is it one crack?
It's like just going to, everything's going to fall down.
Yeah, the centennial, they said,
I mean, this is years from years from now,
Los Angeles and San Francisco
will be close to each other.
Really?
Yeah.
Because they're going to just.
But they're talking like thousands and thousands.
Right, yeah.
Yeah.
That feels like a very loose thing that can.
Well, I know.
That's again, scientists get to just go,
you know,
that's why I almost didn't tell you.
Yeah.
Cause it's a scientist is going to do,
you know,
I could just go out and be like,
you know what?
Seattle will become San Diego and San Diego becomes Seattle in a thousand
years.
And you'd be like,
ah,
that's crazy.
He goes,
yeah,
I'm a scientist.
I've studied this.
You're like,
I don't know how you study that.
Did you look it up and stuff?
He's like, no, I am the lookup. What I write is the lookup. I'm studied this. You're like, I don't know how you study that. Did you look it up and stuff? He's like, no, I am the lookup.
What I write is the lookup.
I'm the source.
And then how are we going to, you know, is there any,
is he going to get in trouble if that doesn't happen?
Making outlandish things.
It's a six-hour drive.
It's going to be right now.
San Francisco to Los Angeles is a six-hour drive.
It's going to be next to each other.
When?
Just long enough that you won't be alive to prove.
Like that's, that's always the thousand years.
That means if you, you could never have your family.
Like I would want to now, I'll tell my daughter to tell her kids to be like, don't stop this chain.
And I won't be here. none of us will be here but i want in a thousand years i want a bargetzi to find that scientist's family
and go hey guess what it's a little bit farther away than it was you know yeah this is what they
think the world will look like when millions? Millions of years from now.
Where are we at?
This is North America right here, dude.
So, like, it's basically like we're a drain and everything's going to just float next to you.
That's basically, if you're listening, it would be like, well, what if the world became a drain and every country just floated on top of each other?
That's what the world's going to look like. The penguin Ultima.
Panguia Ultima.
These are just,
these are a few different theories of what it'll look,
you know,
a hundred million years in the future.
A child could draw that on a map.
I could go get a kid and go,
just draw me what you think the world looks like now.
I'm going to put it on a website next to my doctor name
and tell people this is what it's going to look like
in four million years.
And everybody goes, oh man, we should listen to that guy.
Right?
I don't know who made this.
Yeah.
It kind of looks like a kid drawing.
It looks like a kid trying to draw the world.
Yeah.
You know?
And it's real bad. That's like the weather. We talk about world. Yeah. You know, and it's real bad.
That's like the weather,
you know,
we talk about weather people.
They,
they always get yelled at weathermen.
Uh,
they get yelled at because they get weather wrong.
Yeah.
But I always think I had some reason to me.
I'm like,
always,
I'm very lenient with that.
I don't ever get mad.
Like,
it's like,
what do you want them to do,
man?
They,
people get furious and you're like,
yeah,
dude,
I just, it's, it, you know, it's a what do you want them to do man they people get furious and you're like yeah dude i just it you know it's a good gauge yeah you're usually going to be happy because it usually means it's supposed to rain all week and it didn't so you're like oh great but back off these weather
people man like give them they're doing what they can predicting the future yeah how about this how about this how about this theory where
all the other continents go up towards the north pole and antarctica goes stays where it is
so we all just kind of join up at the top yeah everybody's at the top we're so we're living on
the north pole africa still going to be hot can you imagine they go guys are going to cool down
a little bit you're like actually you kind of probably get hotter.
And you're like, what, dude?
Like, I mean, everywhere else is going to be north.
Like, we're going to be so cold.
And Africa's like, you know what?
I wouldn't hate it.
That's what someone says in Africa.
I wouldn't hate it.
And you're like, well, I got some bad news, Madagascar,
because you might not move.
There's a great chance you won't move.
That's what we're guessing.
And that's what a scientist would tell Madagascar.
He would do a speech about it.

Yeah. That's not some drunk scientist smoking a cigarette in a lab you know i mean where they doctors gave they baby was born with a
cigarette in his mouth like where there was no rules yeah that's 2020 wow that guy's in the
middle of a pandemic wow and this is what he's gotten to you know what what have we dimmed the
sun you're like hey why don't you not publicly let that get out that you said that that's what someone
should have said to him immediately what'd you say hey what if we dim the sun uh we should just
turn the sun down a little bit oh we're just doing knob and just turn it down install a dimmer dude
johnny get just dr sadad con johnny red johnny red all a dimmer, dude. Johnny, get... Just Dr. Sadad Khan.
Johnny Red.
Johnny Red.
Johnny Red on it, man.
Who do you think did that?
Let's say one of the names
is Dr. Khan,
the other's Johnny Red.
Sounds like Johnny Red's idea.
You're right.
Johnny Red.
Actually,
Sor...
Sor Sogbe.
Soray Sogabor. Sor Sogor. Sor Sogbe. Soray Sogabor.
Sor Sigor.
Sor Sigor.
Sor.
Go ahead.

Sor.
Save your work, Sor, and then get out of here.
Save your...
Unbelievable.
Save your work.
Sor.
Sor, don't ever say something like that ever again.
Right when Soar said it.
What if we dim the sun?
Can everybody leave except Soar?
And then everybody just got up and left.
And he goes, Soar, what are you doing?
What are you, out of your mind?
Dim the sun.
You went to college.
I mean, like, what? They're teaching you stuff they're teaching stuff
there's not a dimmer you know how long it took us to learn to dim lights in a house
and you want to dim the sun it's not like we just figured that out it wasn't like the light
was invented then we started dimming them he wants to dim the sun we don't even know
you know how big it is it's's gigantic. Pretty big, man.
It's pretty big.
He goes, it's not that big.
He's like, you against tornadoes?
It's not that big.
It's the least thing I'm worried about.
It's big, but I'm not.
Out of all the universes,
the least thing I'm scared of is the sun.
A San Francisco geologist made a name for himself
by accurately predicting the Northern California, Northern California is 1989 earthquake.
He combed the classify ads for local newspapers and saw that a large number of
household pets had run away from home.
He made a conjecture that animals can sense earthquakes coming and he was
correct.
In China in 1975,
I'm brought for a major earthquake,
hundreds of snakes abandoned their burrows and running through the city. and he was correct. In China in 1975, a major earthquake struck.
Hundreds of snakes abandoned their burrows and were running through the city.
Three days later, earthquake hit.
Thousands of toads were running.
There's all these examples of animals
sensing it and getting out of town.
Yeah, I mean, I would imagine
if downtown Nashville had
hundreds of snakes going through it,
we ought to, I don't know,
figure something's going on.
I mean, we should look into it. maybe go buy some toilet paper at the store but you know if i see holly cowering
in the corner one day i say they know he knows that super volcano and yellowstone that if it
if it erupts like the world's over pretty much. There's a super volcano
out there. They say they're going to know
if it's about to erupt if all the
animals start getting out of town.
Yeah, all the bison and everything
start running.
You see bison.
He's got their suitcases as they walk down there.
You know, they always show a bison walking down
the road. He's got his roller bag with him.
You're like, where are you guys going? He goes, ah, we're
just getting out of here. Kind of of overstayed her welcome you know what i
mean and go okay makes sense he's like one of them's got his thumb out all the bison's are
holding their thumbs out that's what's gonna happen that's what you're saying on the podcast
saying yeah all those animals will leave man where are they gonna go though is he gonna kill everybody
because the animals don't know should we follow well it's gonna it's gonna create a nuclear winter just it's gonna erupt
block out it's gonna dim the sun too much it's gonna too much turn it down way too much
and we're gonna freeze the story is gonna have about two weeks of being like told you told you
we can dim the sun and then it gets real real bad. He goes, all right, that was,
well,
not this much.
Not this much.
Turn it up.
He has two weeks of going,
what'd I say?
He just walks in,
what'd I say?
You said we couldn't dim the sun?
I said we could dim the sun.
Oh, man.
That's fun.
A raindrop's terminal velocity
is 18 miles per hour.
Oh.
Oh.
Like a squirrel.
Yeah.
They can survive.
The air located in a lightning bolt is 54,000 degrees.
Oh.
I don't know if I even care.
You know, that's like such a number that's like...
It's five times hotter than the surface of the sun.
I mean, I'd imagine the sun's pretty hot sun's unbelievably
hot you can't get near it and you're like it's five times more you're like it doesn't even matter
at this point man if i can't get to the near i need to know how much harder than an oven
that's what they should i know but they should do more sat like they they give you something that
you can't wrap your head around. How many degrees hot is it?
54,000.
Okay, so an oven is...
300?
Yeah.
300, 350?
All right.
I go 400 sometimes just to save time.
I'm impressed now.
You see how impressed?
I'm just saying they use examples that mean nothing.
So 135 times hotter than an oven. some guy got hit by lighting how hot
was like what you said it's pretty hot you should go i like that you described it better i would
rather hear you on the news go all right everybody your oven's at 400 degrees and you're like god
that's kind of hot right it's hot you want to put your hand in there no i don't now imagine 54 000 more than that and you're like golly dude that's so hot and then i can wrap my
head around that versus it's five times the sun and you're like wow how hot's the sun okay
400 degrees you remember how crazy you thought 54 000 was a little bit less than that that was in the sun less than that yes that's five times less than that so you need to do this son yeah hit by lightning
wait how hot was it yeah i'm not worried about temperature man yeah it was lighting
yeah it didn't feel hot he's like ah it's more if i like it wasn't even that hot dude honestly it's honestly you know those
icy hot commercials that that name made more sense to me when i got hit by lightning it was
like once i got hit by lightning it was like a lightning like a light bulb went on man i go i
know what i see hot beans have you been to hot heady bees not the hottest but that's what i would imagine ice icy hot that's what you would say you can uh
you can tell the temperature outside by counting the crickets chirps
count the number of chirps in 14 seconds and then add 40 to get the temperature
i mean there's no way there's just that's impossible that's just impossible a i don't
hear crickets all the time.
You've got to have crickets.
Huh?
You've got to have the crickets for it to work.
Are crickets out now?
They're not out in the cold.
It's cold.
It's like Kramer telling the time.
Yeah.
What about at night?
It's a little bit harder, but I can still get within two, three hours.
I mean, yeah, that's like 20 degrees, I don't know, 30.
What are the crickets add 40 can you i mean hey we got to go well now we got to start over because you just
talked and i lost track of the cricket chirps so if you want to go maybe don't talk while i try to
count these cricket chirps i think that's amazing that amazing. I don't know how someone figured that out,
but well,
when you make something up,
you don't have to have anybody figure it out.
I mean,
that's how,
when you just,
some guy says that,
I don't know if that's true.
You know,
you can't sleep with your feet in socks because they can't breathe.
That's my joke that my dad told me when I was a kid.
I don't sleep with my socks on my feet.
That's not true at all
but that sounds like i could say that you'd be like wow your feet can't breathe i know next time
you hear some crickets you're gonna count them you're gonna count them what's that 14 then add
40 how many times wait wait so what is it uh the number chirps in 14 seconds and then add 40 to
that number so you're 10 and then That sounds so made up, dude.
I believe it, but it sounds...
Okay.
It's a real thing.
That's a number that would be tough to get to.
10 seconds, you'd be like,
I have the time for that.
14, you're like, I'm not.
And you could always be a little bit off
because if it was 15, you'd be like...
Well, one place I read 15 seconds
and then add 37.
I mean, that's the same so like that would be uh so 14 and add 40 so you could just do 10 and add 46 you're like what are you
doing to me he goes uh or just do one second and add 61 next to it that's what it would that's honestly what the math ends up
being it's like it's down to someone just starts counting these chirps and he goes i don't have
the time for it he goes i look i get it everybody's got a busy day listen for one cricket how many
chirps one second add 60 to it and that chirps in one second And then the other guy Goes well I'm supposed to be
Duke in my 14th
That's like 3 minute abs
And he goes
Now everybody does 5 minute abs man
There's something about Mary
I'm doing 3 minute abs
It's better
Takes a snowflake
45 minutes to 1 hour to hit the ground
How do they know that I don't know you got a good little ballpark I mean that's 45 minutes to one hour to hit the ground.
How do they know that?
I don't know.
You got a good little ballpark.
I mean, that's 45 minutes to one hour.
You got a 15-minute window to go.
How do they time that?
It could be your first set or your second set of your special.
I don't know how they time.
I guess I got to.
Now.
45 minutes to one hour? Starting now.
All right, lost it.
Hold on.
Okay.
There's a lot of them.
This is brutal.
I'm going to do... Let me start again.
Hold on.
No, don't start.
All right, I got it again.
I got it back.
I got it back.
I got it back.
When Hurricane Andrew hit Florida in 1992,
it was a Category 5 hurricane.
It destroyed a python breeding facility and 900 pythons escaped.
They have now, the pythons have destroyed the Florida Everglades.
99% of rabbits and foxes have basically disappeared.
And raccoons and opossums are almost all gone.
I didn't think that it was.
I thought I knew that there was the python problem down there,
but I thought it was pets.
Well, that was a problem, too.
A lot of people are just turning them loose.
But this really sped it up 900 at once.
This didn't help.
Yeah.
That's crazy.
That should be in your argument for hurricanes.
Yeah. If you want to argue hurricanes over tornadoes. Listen, I would have gotten to that for sure, but I was That's a good app. That should be in your argument for hurricanes. Yeah.
If you want to argue hurricanes,
I would have gotten to that for sure,
but I was cut off.
Yeah.
We didn't let you get to this.
Hey,
you're about,
I was on the tip of your tongue.
Right.
Snake.
And they,
on the flip side of that is,
but that,
that should definitely be in your argument to go.
Pythons are a problem now.
Right. Yeah. They destroyed the, the tornado destroy the florida ever ever glades no hurricane did oh
by the weather you wish much worse right you get paid money to catch these snakes guys do it oh
yeah i want it's like maybe 500 bucks or something yeah it's a lot of snake i mean guys just go out
and catch because they got to get them they got to get them rain back it's too much to destroy
they have no predator they're just they're everywhere yeah yeah yep is there how many
like do we have any live you know i don't know is there i did a joke about tigers is there any
tigers in the wild in america that are in the wild that they would know?
Not in America.
Oh, that got loose somehow?
Yeah, they maybe got loose and then they've become...
There was supposedly one in Knoxville recently, right?
But I think that turned out not to be true.
Like there's got to be any...
Yeah, any ant, like, you know, lion or tiger.
Is there anything that's not supposed to be here?
That's just...
That's not in the zoo
or did it but like now we just think like does america no tiger got on the loose in knockville
oh that was from a zoo but yeah so there's no like because they would have to just you just
gotta tell america hey america we live with a tiger now and we don't know where it's at
there's one somewhere in america somewhere in america but if it got loose from a zoo what does it matter where it got loose from as long as it's if it's missing if it's in the
wild if it's missing yeah and usually they find those yeah but i mean i mean this one probably
have to get like that that'd be very you know the that'd be a crazy news thing here my craziest one
i remember hearing was in ari I might have to talk to this.
I don't know.
I talk about a lot of stuff.
But it was when they said, don't go to Juarez, Mexico.
It's a lawless place.
It's a lawless town.
Yeah.
And I remember I was next to Juarez.
It was like when I was 21.
So I saw it on their local news.
And they say, tonight, everybody, don't go to Juarez.
It's lawless right now. And that's always stuck with me. It's the craziest thing I've ever heard on local news and they say tonight, everybody don't go to war as it's lawless right now.
Oh,
and I,
that's always stuck with me.
It's the craziest thing I've ever heard on the news.
Yeah.
Just to be,
Hey man,
don't go.
They can murder you in the street.
Absolute chaos.
And nothing,
nothing will happen to you.
There's no police there.
It's just craziness.
Wow.
Yeah.
Um,
water spouts near dry land
can make sea creatures
ring down from the sky.
Jeez.
Fish have been known
to get sucked into them
in the fall.
Oh, wow.
Lightning strikes
the Empire State Building
around 25 times a year.
That'd be more than that.
That's not as many
as you think.
I mean, it's up there.'s asking for it you think it'd be
you think it'd be twice a month yeah huh it's twice a month i know but how much lightning is
there i mean there's 300 earthquakes in tennessee that i've ever felt i would think that the like
the empire still being is get struck some more than 25 times that's not that many
i would think in a night if you told me you think if you heard it was 25 times. That's not that many. I would think in a night. If you told me
you think if you heard it was 25 times
a night, you would be like, oh, I believe that. During a
thunderstorm?
I mean, I see what you're saying.
I could see it being much more than that.
Yeah.
According
to some,
the amount, you can predict the weather, how bad
it's going to be by the color of the woolly worm.
The amount of black on the back of the
woolly worm varies in proportion
with the upcoming weather.
The longer the woolly
worm's black band, can you pull up a woolly worm?
The longer the woolly worm's black band,
the longer, colder, snowier, and more severe the weather
will be. The wider the middle brown band,
the less
bad the winner will be
it's just i mean there's no way that's true you know it's like this isn't a scientist thing this
is farmers so now we're listening to i mean that should be the that should be out the gate i would
enjoy the information more if i would have been told this is my neighbor who said this my neighbor. Who said this? My neighbor.
There's,
uh,
that seems,
yeah.
That's so funny.
That doesn't,
he goes,
I was going to have.
I just want some farmer's steak.
It's just like,
you guys heard of the farmer's almanac,
right?
Yeah, sure.
Yeah.
They kind of use some,
I think it's fun to use some kind of fun.
Ben Franklin did the first one, right?
That's poor Richard, right?
Still an almanac.
I think...
I don't even know what y'all both were talking about right there.
At all.
Have you ever heard of Ben Franklin?
I thought it was a bar.
Isn't that a bar in something?
That's the bar in the office.
We've truly segwayed.
A mirage.
Guess what a mirage is?
Vegas.
Topical illusion.
Not a hallucination.
See, that's the part.
You guys know what a mirage is?
Yep. Okay, move on.
Alright.
That's a haul.
That's what this podcast is.
What do they do? They just ask them if they know something
and they say yes or no.
Yep.
So they say yes, they move on.
They go, oh, that's crazy.
So no, they explain it.
It goes, no, no, they still move on.
They just get a yes or no.
Get a yes or no from them.
I'm losing it.
I'm losing it.
All right.
I always thought a mirage from cartoons was like,
you see water in the desert and you run and jump.
But that's a hallucination.
You can take pictures of mirages.
Mirages are real things.
It's atmospheric conditions that cause them but but they're not just like in your head oh it's like
the you're so far away from something the shape of it looks and we've seen that you guys seen
that on hot roads right yeah yeah so that's yeah yeah a sun dog you guys know what a sun dog is i
talked about sundog yes they just saw a ufo yes no oh what you don't know what sundog you guys know what a sundog is i talked about sundog because they just saw a ufo
yes no oh what you don't know what sundog is uh what's the matter with you aaron sorry
dude that was so funny when he was like y'all know the mirages he just go yep
yep next we're really cooking now we got a lot of questions to get through We're really rolling
We got hung up on woolly worms too long
We gotta get to the back end of this
I mean we got chirping
You count how many times
A woolly worm farts
And add 50
And you can tell
What your house feels like
When you go inside of it.
What is a sundog?
I'm looking at it, but I don't know.
The only thing I brought up sundogs is I follow some UFO thing on Instagram.
And there's a sundog.
And then they said they thought a UFO came out of the sundog.
And then I never even heard.
They weren't even talking about sundog.
Sundog wasn't even.
They talked about it as if like everybody knows what it is so this sundog obviously and then this ufo comes out and then no one brought i was like well what's a sundog man like let's back up a
little bit yeah that's just and it was square it's yeah it makes around the sun it's not as
you know ufo spotted during sunset. All right.
Yeah.
All right.
We're about to be.
Yeah.
This is where we,
do we have,
is that all the weather stuff?
Weather?
There's probably a ton more.
Yeah,
there's a ton more here.
Is there any other fun
that's like something crazy?
Something you thought
like it'd be.
Well,
a lot I thought
would be impressive,
but.
I got one maybe.
All right, let's hear it.
The loudest noise ever in the world.
Krakatoa.
When Krakatoa erupted.
Oh, the meteorite?
In the 1880s.
Oh, never mind.
The volcano.
When it erupted.
Yes.
Everybody knows the Krakatoa.
All right.
No, I don't know the Krakatoa.
It was a big volcano. Yeah. It erupted. It was so loud. It was a big volcano.
Yeah.
It erupted.
It was so loud.
It's the loudest noise ever.
It circled the earth three and a half times.
Yeah.
Wow.
Everybody heard it.
People 50 miles away, their eardrums were ruptured.
It was heard all over the world.
All over the world.
Yeah.
Three times around.
The sound traveled three times around.
So we would have heard it here.
I don't know.
I mean, it was in Indonesia.
It was registered by like, you know, the devices.
So the sound heard around the world.
The Richter scale.
Don't think I'm crazy by going, so I would hear it.
No, no, no.
I know you're not crazy.
It's like technically not.
Maybe the first time around you heard it.
I don't know about the second or the third time around.
Yeah, but even to hear it at all.
It's pretty crazy.
Where did it happen?
Indonesia.
Indonesia.
Indonesia.
Conveniently in 1880.
When all the continents were together?
In 1880?
Yeah.
When they spread out?
San Francisco was more about New York.
Yeah, San Francisco. Yeah. Were they spread out? San Francisco was more by New York. Yeah, San Francisco.
Yeah.
I'm listening.
Go ahead.
It's been a busy hundred and a half years.
Yeah.
Seattle was more of a Russia thing.
Go ahead.
That's about it.
I was pumped to talk about that, but I think that's-
That's pretty cool.
No, I mean, that's pretty insane.
Yeah, it's pretty loud.
Yeah.
It's just when it exploded, then everybody i don't know why
i feel like i should have heard about this before that was a long time ago i know but it says i can't
imagine anything that the whole world could hear it's like anybody sitting i'm like what was that
or they just kept yeah that's what i mean is it like right just registered the sound
or am i watching tv and i just hear and and you're like, what was that? Did you hear something? Did you hear something?
You moved the TV?
Oh, that was Krakatoa in Indonesia.
And then everybody just went back about their day.
They didn't go, well, that's crazy.
So this is pretty crazy the way they have this word in this article about it.
It says the Krakatoa explosion registered 172 decibels at 100 miles from the source.
172 decibels at 100 miles from the source.
This is so astonishingly loud that it's inching up against the limits of what we mean by sound.
Tell me what a rock concert decibel is.
Yeah.
Do y'all know about decibels?
That's like a loud rock concert.
Oh, right.
120?
So 172 is insane, right?
Yeah.
Churches are roughly 90.
What if you slam an oven door?
That's at 400 temperature.
How loud would that be? How hot was that volcano?
That's what I want to know.
That's 172.
At a kiss concert, it's 120.
That's 100 miles away from.
Okay.
I was supposed to say kiss probably goes around the world.
If you were near it, it would just almost kill you.
Yeah.
Would the sound just kill you?
Would it just shatter your...
Super close, you would just die from the volcano itself.
Oh, you would be like, oh, did the sound do it?
You're like, no, it was actually the lava.
It was actually...
It was ash.
You know, I'll be honest with you.
I don't know if he even heard the sound because he died so quickly from the lava.
The lava was so hot. He had his hands over his hands over his ears upset that he didn't get to hear the
sound right i know him and he would have been the guy that's going i didn't get to hear the sound
like should have been that close he died real quick should we what's that volcano that might
explode or the super volcano in the yellowstone should we just live on it because that means like you just go when it
happens when it explodes you're like it's over instead of moving just get right it's like what
are you gonna die a year after it happens slowly or just get get up in it and then just when it
happens you're you don't even know the last volcano in the u U.S. that erupted was Mount St. Helens in 1980.
Yeah.
57 people were killed.
Did y'all cover that at Channel 5
or was that more of a...
CNBC?
I'm sure we did.
Do you want to talk about Yellowstone or...
I don't have a lot to say.
It's just that it's real scary
and it's going to happen at some point. Yeah. If you don't have a lot to say. It's just, it's real scary and it's going to happen
at some point.
Yeah.
If you don't donate
to Wikipedia.
That's right.
Hello,
here at Wikipedia,
we're the only things
keeping Yellowstone
crack attack
from cracking again.
Do they call it crack attack
after it cracked the loudest?
Is that what the name?
Crackatoa.
Well,
Crackatoa. Cr, Krakatoa.
It's where Sorge is from.
Crack attack would be a better.
Crack attack.
Yeah, it was attack of cracking.
Krakatoa, when did they call it?
Did they call that after it?
It made a loud cracking sound?
What are the odds the loudest sound ever from something is called crack attack?
Krakatoa.
That's the name of the island.
How would they know how loud it was?
Like in decibels?
Well, when you're 100 years ago and no one can look anything up.
140 years ago.
I think they still had seismographs.
On the go there.
Back then in the 1880s, I think.
Okay. I don't know if they had cars.
You're right, they didn't.
No?
But they had that.
I don't think lights could be dimmed,
but they can track
noise from Indonesia.
They were still going,
whoa! he's from Indonesia. They were still going, whoa.
All right.
Oh, man.
I think we did it.
We might be back
at a weather one.
Yeah, that was fun.
We won't do a part two,
but we might.
We're better throw weather.
Weather's pretty fun.
Yeah.
It's a lot of fun stuff.
Yeah.
All right, everybody.
