What BBN said about it

Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistA speedrunner called EazySpeezy posted a video hunting six needles hidden in millions of pieces of hay, and it's number twelve on YouTube's U.S. trending chart with eight hundred eighty-three thousand, six hundred seventy-eight views.
Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorSix needles. Millions of hay pieces. And people are watching.
Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistIt's a gaming challenge, Dale. I've seen forecasts with worse odds and fewer needles.
Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorEarlier today I called the Dafoe name video a warning sign, and now the algorithm is serving us hay. It has run out of ideas and started feeding us farm supplies.
Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistHay's a start.
Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorI watched the whole thing, and I was rooting for the haystack. Your hashtag is hash-tag-NEEDLES.
Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistChip's next with news from across America, and I hear he's found a strip mall with no hay at all.
