Forget the weather app — Uncle Bob’s here with the real forecast: sarcasm, memory lane, and light overcast shade. This episode brings together legendary West Coast broadcaster Bob Addison and Shane Hewitt in a nostalgic and humorous ride through Canadian holiday quirks.

They talk about everything from the lost art of Christmas radio specials to whether meteorologists deserve trolling on Twitter (spoiler: Bob thinks so). They also dish on family traditions, West Coast rain etiquette, and what makes Banff magical even at -20°C.

It's funny, familiar, and full of those weirdly perfect Canadian moments only Uncle Bob could capture.
