Give it up for Louis Cato and the band, everybody.

I'm lucky enough to work with my writers, the finest writers on television.

Sam Rockwell is going to be out here in just a few moments.

And perhaps my favorite short story writer living alive today.

I don't have to tell you this country is in winter's icy grip.

173 million Americans are under extreme cold warnings.

Now, extreme cold warnings are like regular cold warnings, except they come in Baja blasts.

Temperatures have been so frigid in Georgia that trees are exploding.

You can read all about it in the children's book The Giving Tree 2.

This time it explodes, But I'd like to address these trees directly.

Maybe you wouldn't explode if you just let out your feelings every so often.

Like the weeping willows, they cry and express themselves.

They don't explode at Thanksgiving dinner 15 years from now when someone just casually mentions the mashed potatoes were a little gummy.

This historic cold means there's never been a more crucial time to hear from America's foremost meteorologist, Punxsutony Phil.

Check your calendars to see when that is in your area.

He forecasts the next six weeks of weather for the entire world.

America's magical weather predicting rodent is now under threat because PETA wants to replace Punxsutony Phil with a hologram.

For 139 years, Americans have relied on a weather prediction system where townspeople get tanked at local bars, then gather in large numbers to harass a specially selected ground vermin and based on the direction it runs in terror, decide whether we're getting six more weeks of trees blowing up.

Also, this event is the only thing propping up our national top hat industry.

If Punxsutawney Phil goes, all we've got left is Punxsutawney Slash.

PETA sent a letter requesting that Phil be replaced with what they call a dazzling 3D projection so that Phil and his family can retire to a reputable sanctuary.

Any chance that reputable sanctuary is a farm upstate.

Of course, replacing meteorologists with optical illusions is nothing new.

We all remember the success the Today show found when they replaced Al Roker with a magic eye poster.

Let's take a look at these two AI generated Phils.

One for six more weeks of winter that looks like Phil is haunting us from his reputable sanctuary.

And another for early spring that looks like he moved from Gobbler's Knob to Gobbler's Coachella.

And there's another winter holiday on the horizon for all y'.

For many Asian cultures, lunar new year is this February 17th.

In Chinese astrology, this year is the year of the horse.

According to the Chinese calendar, 2026 is the year of the fire horse.

Pretty sure that's not Chinese, but I gotta say, that is metal as hell.

Almost as metal as 1990, which was the year of the metal horse.

This lunar New Year in China is a new stuffed animal.

They're calling it the Accidental Crying Horse toy.

That little guy right there is the perfect symbol for how it feels in 2026.

We're sad and we're soft, but we're still hoping we can sleep with you.

Apparently, the horse wasn't supposed to be frowning.

A shop worker accidentally sewed the horse's smile.

The sad horse went viral on social media, and

the shop decided to produce more of the defective toy.

Or as they say in Chinese, emotionally troubled horse.
