| 0:00.0 | Happy Friday besties. |
| 0:07.8 | Yeah. |
| 0:09.0 | Ooh, that's that scary 80s. |
| 0:23.0 | Yeah. |
| 0:24.4 | Jump scare. |
| 0:27.8 | I thought the 90s were like the peak Halloween time. |
| 0:31.8 | Like I remember watching the Roseanne Halloween special every year and like all that. |
| 0:33.4 | You walk down the street. |
| 0:55.0 | Like, and you're like, oh my God, the blowups, the inflatels. I don't know what company buys those, but I wish I could back to the future and buy some stock in blow up shit for front yards because it has gotten, I mean, I love it, but it's gotten crazy. I know. We've got shit all over. Oh, man. I love a spooky season, though. Oh, me too. Don't y'all? Can you believe it? November 1st? |
| 0:55.8 | What the fuck? |
| 1:09.5 | I know. We're two more months. I swear, I can't. I can't. I can't. First of the month. Oh, yeah. Rabbit, rabbit. And then, like, you know you're getting old when you just keep talking about time, you know, and the calendar and the weather. |
| 1:13.4 | Like every conversation I'm having now here in my 40s says, |
| 1:12.1 | oh my God, it's so humid today. And can you believe it's November 1st? |
| 1:18.3 | I mean, oh, it's supposed to rain. 25% chance, but I can feel it in my bones. I can smell it. |
| 1:24.3 | That's why I said that the other day. I can smell it's going to rain. What the fuck? But I could. But we have, for those listening in Atlanta or those that have been through Atlanta, we have a news channel called 11 alive. I think it's an NBC affiliate. It was like 11. You remember on the old cable or non-cable, basic cable would be like channel 11 on the old TV? No, it's like it's like the NBC affiliate. it. But anyway, so they're 11 alive. And so there's this guy, Chesley McNeil. I think it's my favorite. I'd probably say my favorite weather person in Atlanta. And we've talked about, again, of course, we've talked about weather people and what a meaningful character they are in our lives. But so Chesley does this thing called the Whizometer. And he does what the weather is from a zero to 11. And I swear, when it hits 11, I mean, he is like, boom, it is like, it's a big day. And so I'll say I bring it up to people regularly, as you can imagine. And I'll be like, what do you think today is on the on the Whizometer? So wait, is 11 a good day? Yes, 11 is yes. 11 is like, it's like a 10th, better, one better. Okay, okay, okay. I took it the other way. Okay, got it. No, it's like a good, no, I guess you could see that when you turn it on. I mean, if, if it's a one, it's like an all points bulletin. But when it's an 11, big old smile on on Chesley's face. I love it. You know who I love is that Jim Cantorri? Yes. You know the hurricane guy. Oh my God. And there's all the memes and the jokes. Like, he come into your town. You better freaking evacuate. Like, you better get the hell out of there, you know. Yeah, you need to have like, find my friends on like your immediate family members, |
| 2:53.9 | the people you care about. And Jim freaking evacuate. Like, you better get the hell out of there, you know? Yeah, you need to have, |
| 2:55.0 | like, find my friends on like your immediate family members, the people you care about in Jim Cantori because you need to know if he's coming within your radius. You are fucked. |
| 2:59.3 | With the capital F. God, he's been doing weather like 30 years, right? Holy shit. I mean, he has, |
| 3:04.6 | how many lives does he have? Oh my God, he is a cat. |
| 3:08.0 | Yeah, kitty cat, cantori. |
| 3:11.4 | Good is somebody for this episode to him. Yeah. Kitty cat can'tory. |
| 3:17.5 | Oh my God. That's kind of cute. Right? I wonder what he dressed. Does he, well, I'll have to see if he dressed up for Halloween. You know, I always like to see people in like, you know, like, you know, like you well, I've always loved the Today Show, you know, when they do their reveal. It's so funny. Yes. Yeah. That's cute.
