In September 2025, no hurricanes made landfall in the United States — the first time that’s happened in a decade. What’s going on with this year’s hurricane season? We ask WeatherBELL Analytics’ Joe Bastardi, one of America’s best hurricane forecasters, to share his insights.

In Episode #177 of The Climate Realism Show, The Heartland Institute’s Anthony Watts, Sterling Burnett, Linnea Lueken, and Jim Lakely also tackle the Crazy Climate News of the Week, including a misleading Bloomberg chart that “climate denialists can’t ignore,” how arson, not “climate change,” caused the Pacific Palisades fire, why the predicted increase in EF5 tornadoes never materialized, and how inhalers are now being targeted by climate activists.

Tune in LIVE at 1 p.m. ET on YouTube, Rumble, and X, and join us in the live chat.
