Guest: Brad Panovich, WCNC CharlotteIf you've lived in North Carolina for any length of time, chances are you've turned to one familiar face when the weather turns serious. But being a trusted meteorologist today isn't just about what happens on TV—it's about showing up wherever your audience is, whether that's on-air, online, or in the middle of a rapidly evolving storm. Today on Weather Geeks, we're joined by Brad Panovich, Chief Meteorologist at WCNC Charlotte. For decades, Brad has helped guide North Carolinians through everything from day-to-day forecasts to high-impact events—including more recent storms like Hurricane Helene—building a level of trust that goes far beyond the forecast itself. We'll talk about how his approach to communication has evolved in the age of social media, what it takes to cut through misinformation, and how you balance urgency, clarity, and calm when people are depending on you the most.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Brad Panovich and His Journey02:55 The Evolution of Weather Communication05:54 The Importance of Credentialing in Meteorology08:56 The Role of Trust in Weather Forecasting12:05 Break 112:08 Navigating Social Media as a Meteorologist15:13 Handling Negativity and Criticism in the Digital Age20:13 Understanding Public Perception of Weather Forecasts23:40 Break 224:12 The Role of Social Media in Weather Communication26:28 The Impact of AI on Meteorology30:11 Personal Reflections on the Impact of Meteorology34:26 The Educator's Role in Meteorology ResourcesOhio State University Meteorology Program - https://meteo.osu.edu/UNC Charlotte Weather Communication Course - https://physics.charlotte.edu/ Guest linksBrad Panovich on Twitter - https://twitter.com/WXBradWebsite - https://www.wcnc.com/TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@wxbradSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

If they heed the warnings, people in Kansas City have taken shelter more than usual this season — the 1,438 severe weather warnings issued so far is the most on record. But staffing cuts to the National Weather Service have resulted in less warning time for some storm systems.

Tornadoes hit southern Illinois and Wisconsin, flooding threatened the South and East Coast, and Brian From uses the chaos to name something most of us don't admit: control is one of the great idols of our day, and weather has a way of stripping it bare. From there, a candid look at a Relevant Magazine piece showing the gap between Black and white American Christians isn't closing — it's widening, both politically and in church attendance patterns — and why Jesus's prayer for unity in John 17 makes this an issue the church cannot shrug off as just "politics." A new study on what married couples actually have in common reveals it's narrower than people think — mostly shared values and moral foundations, not personality — and why that's exactly what makes marriage both fun and hard. JD Vance gets pressed on The View about what Christians are willing to excuse in their politicians, and Brian argues the question deserves an honest answer regardless of which side it's aimed at. The Knicks' championship parade becomes a meditation on celebration as a core posture of the church. McDonald's brings back fried apple pie for America's 250th birthday. And a closing reflection on prayer — not just praying ourselves, but modeling and teaching others how to pray, because the prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Guest: Seth Borenstein, Associated PressEvery day, new scientific discoveries shape the way we understand our world — from extreme weather to the changing climate. But most of us don't read scientific journals. Instead, we rely on journalists to translate complex research into stories that inform the public and help us make sense of what it all means. Today we're joined by Seth Borenstein, a veteran science reporter with the Associated Press who has spent decades covering everything from hurricanes and heat waves to the latest breakthroughs in climate research. Over the years, his reporting has helped bring critical science stories to audiences around the world. In this episode, we'll talk about how science journalism has evolved, how the media approaches reporting on Climate Change, and what it takes to translate complex science into clear, trustworthy stories for the public.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Guest Credibility01:43 How Seth Became a Weather and Climate Geek04:02 The Evolution of Climate Science Narratives07:47 From Uncertainty to Scientific Certainty11:53 Finding and Vetting Credible Scientific Sources16:04 The Role of AP and Wire Services in Science Reporting17:48 Break 118:16 Challenges and Opportunities in Science Journalism21:52 How Seth Finds His Experts25:03 Impact of Social Media on Climate and Weather Reporting27:57 Dealing with Disinformation and Misinformation28:39 Break 229:46 Memorable Stories and Impactful Reporting32:20 Embedded Reporting with Storm Chasers34:15 The Human Side of Weather Disasters36:55 Advice for Future Climate and Science Journalists39:25 Where to Find Seth's WorkSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Guest: Adam Fouche, University of GeorgiaWhen you head to a big football game or an outdoor concert, you're probably thinking about the music, the crowd, and the excitement in the air. But behind the scenes, there's another team hard at work — one that's watching the skies. From lightning delays to fast-moving thunderstorms, weather can quickly turn a packed stadium or festival into a serious safety challenge. Protecting tens of thousands of people requires careful planning, constant monitoring, and sometimes very quick decisions. Today we're joined by Adam Fouche, Interim Associate Vice President for Environmental Safety, Risk, and Resiliency at the University of Georgia. His team works behind the scenes to help keep major events — from concerts to packed game days — safe when the weather takes a turn.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Guest Background00:53 Adam Fouche's Weather Geek Origin Story02:45 Adam's Role in Weather Safety at UGA04:09 Weather Safety in Large Campus Events07:09 Weather Risk Assessment for Events10:22 Lightning Protocols and the 8-Mile Rule12:57 Debate on Lightning Delay Rules13:44 Break 115:15 Weather Support Models at SEC Schools18:01 Collaboration with National Weather Service20:04 Communication Strategies for Weather Risks21:59 Psychology of Weather Risk Perception25:01 Venue Design and Weather Vulnerabilities26:07 Break 226:38 Understanding Severe vs. Non-Severe Weather30:09 Technology and Weather Monitoring Tools33:33 Public Safety Advice for Weather PreparednessSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Guest: Jordan HallStorm chasing has always lived right at the edge—part science, part instinct, and part, let's be honest… a little bit of chaos. But these days, it's not just about being in the right place at the right time—it's also about capturing it, sharing it, and bringing people along for the ride in real time. Today on Weather Geeks, we're talking with storm chaser Jordan Hall—someone who's spent countless hours on the road tracking down everything from classic supercells to high-risk, high-reward setups… all while navigating what it means to be a storm chaser in the age of social media. We'll get into some of his wildest chase stories, the decisions that matter most when things get intense, and how storm chasing is evolving in a world where your next viral video might be just one tornado away.Chapters00:00 The Thrill of Storm Chasing10:01 From Hobby to Career: The Journey of a Storm Chaser16:17 Break 120:10 Navigating the Challenges of Storm Chasing23:03 Break 229:22 Navigating Personal Safety29:59 The Role of Social Media in Storm Chasing30:35 Pressure and Competition in Storm Chasing32:06 Impact of Social Media on Storm Chasing34:42 International Storm Chasing Adventures36:55 Choosing Which Storms to Chase38:06 Awe-Inspiring Natural Phenomena39:39 Unique Chase Stories40:09 The Intersection of Storm Chasing and First Response44:32 Challenges of Chaser Convergence48:01 The Storm Chasing Community49:59 Advice for Aspiring Storm ChasersSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Guest: Dr. Michael Pritchard, Director of Climate Simulation ResearchWhen we think about climate models, we often picture supercomputers humming away in government labs or university basements. But increasingly, some of the most powerful tools shaping the future of climate science are coming from an unexpected place — Silicon Valley. Today, we're joined by Dr. Michael Pritchard, Director of Climate Simulation Research at NVIDIA. Yes, that NVIDIA — the company known for powering gaming, AI, and some of the world's fastest computing systems. But behind the scenes, NVIDIA is helping drive a revolution in climate and Earth system modeling, using advanced GPUs and machine learning to build faster, higher-resolution simulations of our planet. In this episode, we'll explore how artificial intelligence is reshaping climate science, what it takes to simulate Earth in unprecedented detail, and why the future of forecasting may depend as much on silicon as it does on physics.Chapters00:00 Introduction to AI in Weather and Climate Modeling03:21 Understanding NVIDIA's Role in Climate Simulation05:34 The Motivation Behind Earth Simulation07:40 AI vs Traditional Weather Modeling Techniques11:10 Addressing Concerns About AI in Weather Forecasting13:49 Break 114:19 The Earth 2 Project and Its Implications18:37 Open Source Weather Models and Their Importance23:33 Exploring GPUs and Their Role in AI24:51 Stormscope: A New Era in Nowcasting28:55 AI and Machine Learning in Mesoscale Forecasting31:48 Break 232:15 Ensuring Ethical AI in Weather Forecasting35:31 The Future of AI in Climate ModelingSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The small, slow-burning conflicts in your life are doing more damage than any single catastrophic event ever could. In this episode, I break down what I call "tiny tornadoes" — the internal storms created by misalignment, toxic situations, and the habit of chasing conflict — and why owning your role in them is the first step to clearing the skies. If you're honest with yourself, you'll realize you're not just caught in the storm, you're often the one chasing it. Key Takeaways Tiny tornadoes are caused by conflicting forces in your life — just like real tornadoes are caused by conflicting temperatures. Being out of alignment — wrong career, wrong relationships, wrong environment — is what creates most of your internal storms. Small, repeated damage compounds over time and hurts you far more than one big setback ever will. You are often a storm chaser in your own life, putting yourself in situations you don't have to be in. When you take ownership of your role in the chaos, you gain the power to remove yourself from it and get back to sunshine. Action Steps Identify the areas of your life where you consistently feel conflict or irritation, then ask yourself honestly what role you are playing in keeping that storm alive. Audit your current environment — your relationships, your career, your daily habits — and determine whether they are in alignment with where you are trying to go. Stop tolerating toxic situations as "not a big deal." Name the small recurring pain points in your life and make a plan to remove yourself from them before the damage compounds further. Notable Quote When you start being honest with yourself about your role in the tiny tornadoes of your life, you start to understand that a lot of times we're storm chasers.

GUEST: Allison BegalmanHollywood is known for big ideas, big creativity, and big storytelling — but in recent years, one of the biggest forces reshaping the industry isn't a genre or a trend… it's the climate crisis. And at the center of that movement is Allison Begalman. As the co-founder of the Hollywood Climate Summit, Allison has built a space where filmmakers, writers, activists, scientists, and executives come together to ask a simple but powerful question: What if the stories we tell could help shape a more sustainable future? Today, we're diving into how she's mobilizing the entertainment world to take climate action seriously — not just in documentaries or disaster films, but in the everyday narratives that reach millions.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Climate Crisis in Hollywood03:53 The Birth of the Hollywood Climate Summit10:29 Barriers to Climate Storytelling13:25 Break 114:23 Climate-Informed Storytelling vs. Climate-Themed Content19:57 Successful Examples of Climate Storytelling24:44 The Role of Social Media in Climate Advocacy24:52 Break 229:18 Measuring Impact in Climate Storytelling31:37 Future Vision for the Hollywood Climate SummitSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Guest co-host Mike Schulte joins Dave with 15 years of Pork Tornadoes social media wisdom, and the message is blunt: relentless consistency wins. You literally can’t post too much in 2026—nobody sees everything anymore, so repost that same flyer as a fresh post (not a share) and keep going. Give it 45 days before you judge results. Why invest? More fans mean more bodies at the gig, plus the social proof that signals to newcomers that other people already love you. And remember—you’re not competing with other bands, you’re competing with people’s couches. From there, Dave and Mike dig into the live-show craft. Build a sound check formula so it stops being a nightmare, then cook up a Suno-generated theme song to walk on to—Always Be Performing means the show starts before the first chord lands. Treat your setlist like art: the opener’s a throwaway, but song three is the most important slot of the night. Then think about your saturation—the Pork Tornadoes cap themselves at two ticketed gigs per year inside a 30-mile radius, and the minute they got scarce, their pay jumped tenfold.

Tornado warning sirens have been a frequent sound in the Kansas City area so far this year. This month is likely to be much of the same, according to Zachary Leasor, a state climatologist with the University of Missouri.

Mississippi was hit hard last night by supercell thunderstorms. Tornadoes destroyed homes. Please keep these areas and the state of Mississippi in your prayers. 

Guest: Max Van Wyk De Vries, Assistant Professor at the University of CambridgeFrom wildfires sparking power outages, to hurricanes triggering chemical spills, today's disasters rarely unfold in isolation. They cascade, compound, and collide — creating challenges far more complex than any single hazard on its own. At the University of Cambridge, the Complex and Multihazard Research Group is leading the charge to better understand these interconnected risks, and to help communities, governments, and industries prepare for a more uncertain world. In this episode, we sit down with the program head of the group Max Van Wyk De Vries to explore how their research is reshaping the way we think about hazards, resilience, and the future of global risk.Chapters00:00 Understanding Complex and Multi-Hazard Risks10:47 The Role of Human Activity in Natural Hazards14:04 Break 119:24 Techniques and Methodologies in Hazard Research23:41 Break 229:24 Future Challenges and Opportunities in Multi-Hazard Risk ManagementSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Look, we made it through the storms — but emotionally? Questionable.This episode of The Rizzuto Show kicks off with the aftermath of some serious Midwest weather chaos, where tornado warnings had everyone glued to their TVs… except the guys, who were outside “checking conditions” like it's a competitive sport. We break down the storm hype vs. reality, give some love to local weather legend Steve Templeton, and question why every dad in America thinks he's a certified meteorologist.From there, things spiral (shocking, we know). We get into a wild story involving a tourist, a snake show, and a decision that absolutely should not have been made. Let's just say… if someone offers to let a cobra crawl up your pants, the answer is ALWAYS no. Meanwhile, Riz brings in a mix of headlines that somehow include airport disasters, tick infestations, and a Disney hotel bedbug lawsuit that will have you rethinking every vacation you've ever taken.And then… Vegas enters the chat. The crew reacts to the “Love Cloud” experience — yes, that's exactly what it sounds like — where couples attempt to join the Mile High Club in a tiny plane with a curtain and a pilot who definitely hears everything. Is it romantic? Is it horrifying? Is it both? We'll let you decide.Also in this episode: AI-generated nonsense, questionable hotel habits, insect horror stories, and a breakup so intense it involved dynamite. Because nothing says “we're done” like explosives.If you're here for daily humor, ridiculous real-life stories, and a group of people who probably shouldn't be giving advice but do anyway — welcome home. This funny podcast delivers exactly what you didn't know you needed: chaos, sarcasm, and just enough reality to make you feel better about your own life choices.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
