Ep. 191: Weather Control

A topical storm washes over the podcast this week as we wade into the controversy and conspiracy around weather modification. As conversation online takes a turn for the unhinged in the wake of Hurricanes Helene and Milton, we take a quick look at the reality of changing the weather, Ain't It Scary style.

 Sean does his best with the science (and pseudoscience) as he takes us through attempts at weather control including Wilhelm Reich's orgone cannons and government cloud seeding programs like Skywater, Operation Popeye and Project Stormfury. It's...not as much of a Roland Emmerich movie as you might think.
