After 3 seasons filled with amazing conversations about all things weather and life, Gabe and Jeremy have decided to turn the page to a new chapter of creative endeavors outside the world of weather. This bittersweet final episode is a dedication to the podcast, the listeners, and what lies next for both Gabe and Jeremy. Thank you all so much for the love and support over the years. We love and appreciate all of you more than you know. Stay safe out there, love your neighbors well and remember to keep looking up!

Storm chaser Max Olson joins us on this episode of the StormReel podcast to talk about his harrowing experience chasing the monstrous and historic Hurricane Melissa, a Category 5 beast whose 185mph sustained winds devastated the island of Jamaica. As the eyewall moved in, Max and his chase partners found themselves in survival mode after barricading their door shut with furniture. Hunkered down in the bathroom, they could only listen as the world outside their shelter was ripped apart. Max also shares the story behind the most iconic and intense storm surge video ever captured after he placed a remote camera in the path of Hurricane Ian in 2022. Unbeknownst to Max at the time, his camera had filmed an epic story of survival as a couple and their dogs were swept away by storm surge while still inside their home. It's an episode you don't want to miss!

Storm chaser and content creator Edgar O'Neal joins Gabe and Jeremy on this episode of the StormReel podcast to share about the dramatic shift in his experiences with tornadoes. After moving to Oklahoma, he found himself desperately trying to escape the largest tornado on record—the 2013 El Reno tornado—with his wife and kids, having never experienced a tornado before. The traumatic incident drove him to learn more about the meteorological phenomenon that had threatened his family, and now Edgar pushes the boundaries of his tornado encounters as a professional storm chaser to bring viewers up close and personal to one of Mother Nature's rarest displays. Edgar also openly discusses the importance of maintaining a healthy relationship with a wild career and knowing when to step away to rest and heal.
