Weathermen & Handguns

In this episode of The Intellectuals, we’re joined by legendary Montreal meteorologist Frank Cavallaro! We dive into a wild story about finding a 3D-printed handgun while magnet fishing near Bordeaux prison and the police investigation that followed. Frank shares his perspective on the decline of local television news, the "government-sponsored" state of the CBC, and his time working with Mitsumi Takahashi. We also tackle the nightmare that is Montreal traffic, the "bike lane" obsession destroying city flow, and why Florida’s restaurant scene is lightyears ahead of Quebec’s. From the legacy of the 90s to the bizarre world of "boner honey," this episode covers it all. We asked for the greatest minds of our time to start a podcast. They refused. So we settled for the complete opposite. ..
