WEBVTT - Exploding Trees

0:00:00.000 --> 0:00:02.400
<v Speaker 1>All right, it is Mojoe in the morning. Somebody needs

0:00:02.400 --> 0:00:05.600
<v Speaker 1>to explain this one to me. The big story that

0:00:05.720 --> 0:00:09.080
<v Speaker 1>is going on right now is meteorologists are saying that

0:00:09.160 --> 0:00:12.360
<v Speaker 1>it is going to get so cold that we may

0:00:12.480 --> 0:00:17.880
<v Speaker 1>see exploding trees. Some like weather guys. I have to

0:00:17.880 --> 0:00:19.919
<v Speaker 1>see if I get see some audio from these weather

0:00:19.920 --> 0:00:22.320
<v Speaker 1>guys explaining this thing. But I think they said it

0:00:22.360 --> 0:00:27.120
<v Speaker 1>was maple trees, that the maple will expand so much.

0:00:29.240 --> 0:00:29.639
<v Speaker 2>There.

0:00:29.960 --> 0:00:31.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you're right.

0:00:31.480 --> 0:00:31.960
<v Speaker 4>I think it's.

0:00:33.360 --> 0:00:33.800
<v Speaker 3>Crazy.

0:00:33.880 --> 0:00:35.440
<v Speaker 4>I did not think this was a real story.

0:00:35.560 --> 0:00:38.560
<v Speaker 1>That's how you know it's too cold outside, that it's

0:00:38.600 --> 0:00:43.880
<v Speaker 1>so cold outside that the trees are exploding. Man oh man,

0:00:44.520 --> 0:00:46.040
<v Speaker 1>hold on a second. I want to see if I

0:00:46.040 --> 0:00:49.840
<v Speaker 1>can find this thing. Yeah, all right, here's the here's

0:00:49.880 --> 0:00:55.040
<v Speaker 1>the story right here. Uh a tremenderate they Oh my god,

0:00:55.120 --> 0:00:59.080
<v Speaker 1>this is actually how they started it. A tremendous freeze

0:00:59.600 --> 0:01:00.960
<v Speaker 1>and they held it with a tree.

0:01:01.320 --> 0:01:02.080
<v Speaker 3>Tree.

0:01:02.640 --> 0:01:06.640
<v Speaker 1>Forecasters are warning of an expectant sub zero temperatures causing

0:01:06.680 --> 0:01:09.759
<v Speaker 1>trees to explode from the brutal cold that is expected

0:01:09.800 --> 0:01:14.360
<v Speaker 1>to wallop the country wallop wallop. Trees may split and

0:01:14.520 --> 0:01:19.560
<v Speaker 1>burst in the Midwest and the northern plains. On Friday

0:01:19.560 --> 0:01:24.200
<v Speaker 1>and Saturday. Because of the Arctic blast, they're expecting temperatures

0:01:24.240 --> 0:01:28.560
<v Speaker 1>of roughly twenty degrees below zero. Exploding trees are possible

0:01:29.200 --> 0:01:33.480
<v Speaker 1>when the sap inside of the trees expands to a

0:01:33.520 --> 0:01:36.800
<v Speaker 1>point that it actually causes the bark to move on

0:01:36.880 --> 0:01:39.160
<v Speaker 1>the tree and the tree to open up.

0:01:39.480 --> 0:01:41.840
<v Speaker 4>Can I ask that dumb question? Because I feel like

0:01:42.720 --> 0:01:46.760
<v Speaker 4>I remember from science class that things shrink in the

0:01:46.840 --> 0:01:48.360
<v Speaker 4>cold and expand in the heat.

0:01:48.520 --> 0:01:50.920
<v Speaker 3>Something. I think I remember that in gym class.

0:01:53.160 --> 0:01:55.240
<v Speaker 4>No, but for real, I don't want to understand this.

0:01:56.280 --> 0:01:58.040
<v Speaker 4>It's like the opposite of what I learned.

0:01:58.320 --> 0:01:59.840
<v Speaker 3>I know it.

0:02:00.040 --> 0:02:02.400
<v Speaker 1>You would think, though, right that that that the cold

0:02:02.400 --> 0:02:04.320
<v Speaker 1>does that to you, But I think it's the the

0:02:04.600 --> 0:02:10.400
<v Speaker 1>sap on it gets hard, right, it freezes, so you

0:02:10.600 --> 0:02:18.160
<v Speaker 1>sap you freezing over there and getting hard. I I

0:02:18.200 --> 0:02:20.600
<v Speaker 1>want to know if when we had the last big

0:02:20.639 --> 0:02:24.239
<v Speaker 1>cold that we had. I want to know if anybody

0:02:24.280 --> 0:02:27.160
<v Speaker 1>has ever had that happened to them where they had

0:02:27.200 --> 0:02:32.639
<v Speaker 1>things that you know, like their pipes I know will burst.

0:02:32.880 --> 0:02:36.519
<v Speaker 5>Frozen soda can in our freezer here at the station

0:02:36.680 --> 0:02:37.799
<v Speaker 5>that bursts.

0:02:37.800 --> 0:02:39.600
<v Speaker 3>Wow, is that a science experiment or.

0:02:40.040 --> 0:02:41.400
<v Speaker 5>I don't know who put it in there, but it

0:02:41.400 --> 0:02:45.280
<v Speaker 5>messed up our whole freezer so got colder and expanded.

0:02:45.840 --> 0:02:50.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I have to tell you that I used to

0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:53.200
<v Speaker 1>like living in Arizona better than living here. And the

0:02:53.240 --> 0:02:55.680
<v Speaker 1>reason why I was we used to do on really

0:02:55.680 --> 0:02:59.080
<v Speaker 1>hot days the whole egg on the pavement thing work.

0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:00.440
<v Speaker 3>It did.

0:03:00.520 --> 0:03:02.440
<v Speaker 1>It actually would take a long period of time for

0:03:02.480 --> 0:03:04.760
<v Speaker 1>it to happen, and it would have to be exposed

0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:09.280
<v Speaker 1>all the way to the sun. But it was worth it.

0:03:09.280 --> 0:03:11.400
<v Speaker 1>It was worth trying it. Hi, Stacy, what's up?

0:03:12.680 --> 0:03:12.840
<v Speaker 5>Hi?

0:03:13.040 --> 0:03:15.640
<v Speaker 2>Well, I'm calling about the tree thing because I heard

0:03:15.639 --> 0:03:17.920
<v Speaker 2>that too and thought it was kind of interesting. But

0:03:18.080 --> 0:03:19.960
<v Speaker 2>when I googled it that all the other men were

0:03:20.000 --> 0:03:23.880
<v Speaker 2>saying that people just or they named it tree exploding

0:03:23.919 --> 0:03:28.760
<v Speaker 2>because that sounded really more like clickbait. But the trees

0:03:28.800 --> 0:03:30.800
<v Speaker 2>don't really explode, they just crack.

0:03:31.840 --> 0:03:34.639
<v Speaker 3>Oh, well, you.

0:03:34.639 --> 0:03:37.040
<v Speaker 2>Have another I did. I don't know what Lydia wanted

0:03:37.040 --> 0:03:38.920
<v Speaker 2>me to talk about, because I did text earlier.

0:03:39.320 --> 0:03:41.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't want Lydia, Lydia, I should not want you

0:03:41.200 --> 0:03:44.000
<v Speaker 1>to talk about anything. You just ruined our entire conversation

0:03:44.120 --> 0:03:45.160
<v Speaker 1>about Get the.

0:03:45.120 --> 0:03:45.600
<v Speaker 4>Hell out of you.

0:03:47.800 --> 0:03:50.880
<v Speaker 2>Like this one better. I was listening to the Joe

0:03:51.000 --> 0:03:53.320
<v Speaker 2>show because his War of the Roads is I can.

0:03:53.400 --> 0:03:53.760
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:03:53.800 --> 0:03:56.480
<v Speaker 2>You guys had a link or something, and Joe totally

0:03:56.480 --> 0:03:58.000
<v Speaker 2>does Mojo's.

0:03:59.440 --> 0:04:00.720
<v Speaker 3>No he does, that doesn't.

0:04:02.320 --> 0:04:05.320
<v Speaker 1>Do We have to worry about the exploding in the

0:04:05.320 --> 0:04:08.600
<v Speaker 1>northern areas if it gets colder than twenty degrees below zero?

0:04:08.880 --> 0:04:10.280
<v Speaker 3>Where do we stand with all of this?

0:04:10.400 --> 0:04:10.720
<v Speaker 6>Right now?

0:04:10.720 --> 0:04:12.720
<v Speaker 1>Adam, if you could kind of be a weather expert

0:04:12.720 --> 0:04:16.039
<v Speaker 1>for us as we watch ahead for a cold ass weekend.

0:04:16.200 --> 0:04:20.920
<v Speaker 3>This is Pat McAfee's show. Exploding trees are weird. It's

0:04:21.000 --> 0:04:23.599
<v Speaker 3>I haven't gotten to experience something. It's when you get

0:04:23.600 --> 0:04:26.720
<v Speaker 3>those huge temperature swings. It goes from warm and then

0:04:26.800 --> 0:04:28.040
<v Speaker 3>temperatures drop rapids.

0:04:28.120 --> 0:04:31.400
<v Speaker 1>Is a meteorologist speaking to.

0:04:30.600 --> 0:04:33.120
<v Speaker 3>Not be a complete nerd because no one wants that. No,

0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:33.520
<v Speaker 3>we do.

0:04:33.960 --> 0:04:36.520
<v Speaker 1>That's why we called you. Yeah, we just that's Pat,

0:04:36.920 --> 0:04:40.640
<v Speaker 1>all right? Get me a meteorologist time and I won't swear, Yes,

0:04:40.920 --> 0:04:43.800
<v Speaker 1>don't that. Why do we get so worried about the

0:04:43.880 --> 0:04:45.520
<v Speaker 1>swear words. I know that we can get in trouble.

0:04:45.640 --> 0:04:48.159
<v Speaker 1>I don't when we hear a swear word, we all.

0:04:48.040 --> 0:04:49.760
<v Speaker 4>Jump because I don't want to get fined and I

0:04:49.760 --> 0:04:50.599
<v Speaker 4>don't want to be in a meeting.

0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:54.680
<v Speaker 1>We all want to get written up radio. We all

0:04:54.800 --> 0:04:58.000
<v Speaker 1>jump like we saw a tree explode. What's up, Dwight?

0:04:58.040 --> 0:04:58.560
<v Speaker 1>How you doing?

0:05:01.240 --> 0:05:02.320
<v Speaker 3>Good morning warning star?

0:05:02.480 --> 0:05:03.080
<v Speaker 7>Are you doing?

0:05:04.680 --> 0:05:08.760
<v Speaker 1>You sound like a very intelligent guy explain to us

0:05:08.800 --> 0:05:09.880
<v Speaker 1>about trees exploding?

0:05:12.200 --> 0:05:19.000
<v Speaker 7>Well, uh like like and I brought up like I

0:05:19.080 --> 0:05:24.000
<v Speaker 7>can exploding in the in the freezer. Liquid actually is

0:05:24.040 --> 0:05:27.680
<v Speaker 7>the thing that expands when it's cold, so like, it's

0:05:27.720 --> 0:05:29.719
<v Speaker 7>why roads get cracked.

0:05:30.839 --> 0:05:34.279
<v Speaker 3>The I'm not following this.

0:05:36.480 --> 0:05:41.480
<v Speaker 7>So like so yeah, so liquid liquid under well kind

0:05:41.480 --> 0:05:42.120
<v Speaker 7>of under pressure.

0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:44.599
<v Speaker 3>It spans. What do you do for a living? I

0:05:44.640 --> 0:05:45.920
<v Speaker 3>never have asked you this question.

0:05:47.360 --> 0:05:48.240
<v Speaker 5>He's a scientist.

0:05:49.080 --> 0:05:50.839
<v Speaker 7>I am not a scientist at all.

0:05:51.520 --> 0:05:53.640
<v Speaker 3>I was a nerd in school.

0:05:55.960 --> 0:05:56.240
<v Speaker 5>What do you?

0:05:56.400 --> 0:05:56.880
<v Speaker 3>What do you do?

0:05:59.120 --> 0:05:59.480
<v Speaker 7>Company?

0:06:00.120 --> 0:06:01.600
<v Speaker 3>So you sel vending machines?

0:06:02.760 --> 0:06:06.880
<v Speaker 7>I don't sell them. I got ron in a good

0:06:06.960 --> 0:06:08.560
<v Speaker 7>chuck and go to different companies.

0:06:08.560 --> 0:06:13.160
<v Speaker 1>And will you be off on uh tomorrow and Saturday,

0:06:13.200 --> 0:06:15.320
<v Speaker 1>so you don't have to like, will people's vending machines

0:06:15.360 --> 0:06:17.080
<v Speaker 1>wait until it warms up a little bit.

0:06:18.000 --> 0:06:19.480
<v Speaker 7>I'm only off as they are.

0:06:20.320 --> 0:06:22.679
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you want to hope that everybody's closed.

0:06:25.320 --> 0:06:27.400
<v Speaker 1>I think that. I think it's one of those things.

0:06:27.440 --> 0:06:29.760
<v Speaker 1>I can't imagine that businesses are going to be open

0:06:29.800 --> 0:06:32.920
<v Speaker 1>on Saturday. It's to me it makes no sense either.

0:06:33.040 --> 0:06:34.880
<v Speaker 1>Very should be home. What's going on, Amanda?

0:06:36.320 --> 0:06:36.480
<v Speaker 7>Hi?

0:06:36.880 --> 0:06:39.440
<v Speaker 6>So, like fifteen years ago, I was in a wedding

0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:44.000
<v Speaker 6>and about six months before the groom did his family

0:06:44.040 --> 0:06:46.880
<v Speaker 6>where they were farmers and loggers and it was in

0:06:46.920 --> 0:06:50.200
<v Speaker 6>the wintertime and they were logging and a tree exploded

0:06:50.240 --> 0:06:55.560
<v Speaker 6>in his face and he had to have facial reconstruction surgery.

0:06:55.640 --> 0:06:59.039
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god, that's more than a crack y'all. Yeah,

0:06:59.160 --> 0:07:01.280
<v Speaker 3>see that lady, That.

0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:02.560
<v Speaker 4>Is so scary for real.

0:07:03.240 --> 0:07:04.440
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, and she has.

0:07:04.320 --> 0:07:07.320
<v Speaker 6>Something to do with like cutting it and the pressure

0:07:07.360 --> 0:07:11.160
<v Speaker 6>and all of that. But like it crushed the top

0:07:11.160 --> 0:07:14.000
<v Speaker 6>of his mouth, like his everything. Oh my god, he's

0:07:14.080 --> 0:07:18.080
<v Speaker 6>fine now, you know, but yeah, six months before his wedding.

0:07:18.440 --> 0:07:21.280
<v Speaker 3>Wow, that is insane. Wow, thank you for the call.

0:07:21.400 --> 0:07:28.760
<v Speaker 3>See that. What's up, Stephan? What's going on? Steph? Chelsea?

0:07:28.840 --> 0:07:29.320
<v Speaker 6>Everybody?

0:07:30.000 --> 0:07:30.240
<v Speaker 7>Time?

0:07:30.280 --> 0:07:37.760
<v Speaker 6>Long time? All that? What's going on?

0:07:37.800 --> 0:07:38.040
<v Speaker 7>Okay?

0:07:38.080 --> 0:07:40.440
<v Speaker 3>So look I heard someone say like in grade school,

0:07:40.440 --> 0:07:43.120
<v Speaker 3>maybe that liquid contracts like in the heat.

0:07:43.160 --> 0:07:46.720
<v Speaker 7>It's actually the opposite, So liquid will expand in the cold.

0:07:46.720 --> 0:07:48.320
<v Speaker 3>Is wide water bottle when you put it in your

0:07:48.320 --> 0:07:54.440
<v Speaker 3>freeze or a glass liquid and make sure the gases.

0:07:53.880 --> 0:07:59.040
<v Speaker 4>Gases, that's right, like balloons. Yes, okay, I do, thank you,

0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:02.200
<v Speaker 4>so Steph.

0:08:02.280 --> 0:08:04.160
<v Speaker 3>Are we hoping that the trees explode?

0:08:04.200 --> 0:08:04.280
<v Speaker 6>Like?

0:08:04.320 --> 0:08:06.080
<v Speaker 3>Do we want that to happen just so we can

0:08:06.080 --> 0:08:08.520
<v Speaker 3>say we live to see that? Yeah? I would love

0:08:08.560 --> 0:08:10.560
<v Speaker 3>to see that. I set up like a crime left

0:08:10.600 --> 0:08:11.040
<v Speaker 3>in front of.

0:08:10.960 --> 0:08:13.880
<v Speaker 7>My maple tree outside my house, and hopefully will.

0:08:13.760 --> 0:08:16.520
<v Speaker 1>You do it with a webcam so that I can

0:08:16.560 --> 0:08:17.600
<v Speaker 1>watch it like I would.

0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:22.640
<v Speaker 3>I would watch that stream. I would love that boring stream.

0:08:22.680 --> 0:08:25.480
<v Speaker 1>Ever, can I be honest, I've watched worse than that.

0:08:25.600 --> 0:08:29.000
<v Speaker 1>I've watched, seriously, the birth, the birth of pretty much

0:08:29.000 --> 0:08:30.560
<v Speaker 1>every animal on live streams.

0:08:30.600 --> 0:08:33.760
<v Speaker 4>You know what, my ring cam, the maple tree in

0:08:33.800 --> 0:08:37.600
<v Speaker 4>my yard is right in front of my ring camp.

0:08:38.120 --> 0:08:40.880
<v Speaker 3>Motion detective off to the left. I would have to

0:08:40.880 --> 0:08:42.839
<v Speaker 3>think that if it exploded, my ring cam would catch

0:08:42.880 --> 0:08:43.640
<v Speaker 3>the movement on camera.

0:08:43.720 --> 0:08:47.040
<v Speaker 1>Let's look on DraftKings and see if they'll post what

0:08:47.280 --> 0:08:52.600
<v Speaker 1>time and date and everything that Shannon's maple tree will explode. Yeah,
