- January 15, 2013 - Today is Street Cleaning Day, and the street cleaners will soon be upon us. Remain calm, and run away screaming. Plus, new music trends from Dark Owl Records, the crackdown on wheat & wheat by-product speakeasies, and we take a look at clouds.

What if street cleaning day is just a regular cleaning day and the street cleaning people are just like, "WTF is wrong with this town????"
holy shit the world makes sense now wtf
I think that's the idea.
The citizens of Night Vale know what "street cleaning day" entails. I know what happens as well. Pray it never happens to you.
He knows to much!!
Everyone knows there is something up with street cleaning day
"OH GOD ITS STREET CLEANING DAY, RUN, LOCK YOUR DOORS, DIE!"
"John Peters, y'know, the farmer?"
Seamless emotional shifts like this are one of my many favourite things about this series
im convinced that his name is literally, John Peters Yaknowthefarmer
One day the weather section will be a real weather report and everyone will freak
these are words spoken by the oracle of the glow cloud.
all
hail
the mighty
glow cloud
It's like your listening to BBC news or some muggle news and when it says 'it's time for the weather' your just thinking "Hmm what kind of song will it be?" then suddenly it's about rain and snow and wind, muggle weather!
Knowledge of clouds is illegal in Night Vale. Therefore, only clear skies would allow that... and I'm not sure THEY're legal either.
Let me just check the traffic, okay?
the first 2 or 3 days had weather in the song, such as waiting for the bus in the RAIN.
I love how WTNV is sometimes intense and a bit scary, says things that cause you to have an existential crisis, says things that makes you think about life, and then *bird sounds*
Isn't that a mood.
b i r b
I think Cecil is the only person that can say “Stay calm” and actually get people even more worried.
You have never heard someone say “stay calm” before this comment, have you
He should have gone for "don't panic" written in big friendly letters on the cover?
Tbh, anytime anybody says "stay calm", I get concerned
_Legalise wheat!_
*419* toast it!
Is that really wheat's food id?
All wheat and wheat by products are forbidden in NightVale.
Or 420 toast it
I love bread
"The song 'La Bamba', only faster."
Goddammit the mood whiplash from that line almost broke my neck.
It’s the best part
I come from the future, fellow listener. I have decided to accept the challenge you have posed.
(Will come back with an update)
i am n o t okay, sir
can u actually hospital pls
I now pose you a challenge of my own.
Listen to 9:10 at full volume with earbuds in
The Bard *OK OK OK I WILL SHOP AT TARGET JUST PLEASE LET ME LIVE PLEASE*
It's too bad Night Vale didn't make the switch to imaginary corn and imaginary corn by-products.
I see what you did there xD
Lol
hahaha
wow, this episode hit me hard. "you have survived everything up to this point" yeah we have.
**waves** hi i'm from the future
it got a lot worse--
Hi! I'm from the future future and hoo boy it's gotten *so much worse*
Hi I’m from the future and you know what? No matter how much worse it is you’re still alive. You’ve still survived everything up to this point, and will most likely continue to do so.

For the first time... Night Vale seems less like a haphazard assemblage of damned souls, and more like a community. A family. It will not last, of course... but as they embrace in the aftermath of this annual culling, for a moment... yes. They are together.
:(((
The clouds are made of ___________________.
Cool, I love ____________________.
The whats?
___________________ and ______________
Sorry, what now? I don't know what you're talking about.
Are clouds in Night Vale not made of condensed water?
What are clouds? Can I eat it?
Did he actually say, "Post coital breath catching", or was I having an auditory hallucination?
You heard correctly

I wonder what Carlos did during all of this.
Probably hid in his lab trying to figure out what the hell was going on :/... Poor Carlos
Probably stood on a far hill studying this as the wind goes through his perfect hair.
yes...Carlos, wonderful Carlos, with his beautiful perfect hair... *sigh*
Probably not discussing his weekend plans.
Hid in a freezer...
The street cleaners are here.
I know i wont survive this.
They've entered my underground bunker.
They were attracted by the beautiful weather being played on my tiny battery powered radio i acquired from Target.
I'm hiding under the crawl space underneath the back-up blankets i keep in the bunker's closet as i'm writing this.
Tell my family i love them... if any of them survive.
dibs on his/her stuff!
I'm still waiting for a death metal weather
Carlos and the scientists hearing this shit and losing their minds because they're still not used to the insanity is my favorite headcanon about these early episodes.
The silence after sex. Ok Cecil what did you do with Carlos last night? -w-
I'm not sure if you want to know...
I was waiting for this comment
I froze when I heard that lol I was Cecillll
Phillip Whyte *whispering, "shop target. "
I went searching for this comment as soon as he brought up the target ad
or the silence when your car radio gets stolen...
agreed
I find it hard to hide, guys. How ever will I hide from the street cleaners?
with pride on your sleeve, screaming skin, who you killed inside your dream and the car that you hate driving, there's no hiding for you.
i guess you could pull the steering wheel
Sometimes...I too have these thoughts
So often I thought, that you oughta
To replace that slot
With what you once bought
Cause somebody stole
My car radio during lastyear's street cleaning day
That album title makes Fall Out Boy and Panic! At The Disco jealous.
+Alicia Christine Yes. Yes it does.
i was thinking the same thing
True
I found my people
i was cuddling my cat in my bed listening to this and those predatory bird noises made him freak out and i had to hold him close and calm him down until his pupils went back to normal size xD
My cat didn't really freak out. Instead she was all focused on trying to figure out where the hell those noises were coming from. The "shop at target" thing kinda made her jump though.
those predatory birds though
Will Egbert literally saw ur comment just as the predatory bird sounds began xD
xD
No one knows whose helicopters those are...
well the weather was nice today
*~badum tss~*
i agree. It felt like light blue and rushing water. Big festivals or small concerts. Pretty.
its by tom milsom
It was.
Guys, it's street cleaning day where I live. Please help me survive the madness
May there be mercy on your existence.
RUN. RUN. OR JUST BE DEAD ALREADY.
OMC...Your username, man...It's just...I'ts funny bc Adam will never get out again...Hopefully
Still In The Cage garbage day for me
"We would like to thank our Nightvale intern Adam Danells, who recently passed away in an unfortunate accident that we arranged for him"
..hold up
those sure were some interesting cloud facts
He must have been swearing a lot
Literal Wicker Chair noo stop right now, you are not supposed to know about the floating cotton candy *is not gonna say the c word in case city council is listening*
Interesting what?
interesting what now?
what clouds? we only know of the all mighty glow cloud
I always read the comments while the weather is in and I love it
me too
Same
same
And what magnificent Weather it was today. I enjoyed immensely.
Me too
The 19 dislikes are Desert Bluffs, Steve Carlsberg and possibly Telly the barber.
That awful, awful Telly, depriving us of Carlos's perfect hair
@@MinecraftLover58 curse Telly the barber
I wonder what drills are like at Night Vale's schools are like...
Alarm: Hard lock down!
Kids:-Load up rifles, ready grenades, and gets out any other weapons.-
I mean...The bad guys should be afraid of the Kids!
Love never came to me,
It moves unscientifically.
Cecilos anyone?
cecilos EVERYONE
It's always freaky when Cecil sounds genuinely alarmed, he's usually pretty calm.
Night Vale: where the weather is always perfect
the guy who did this one turned out to be a paedophile so... maybe not?
today's weather was beautiful, aside from the screams of terror echoing in the background
Legalize Wheat!
And wheat byproducts
And, its byproducts
Henaz Denarion 4ND TH3 B1-PR0DUCTS! >:]
And the subsequent venomous snakes and unholy spirits...
Cori Stockard lol exactly
I think it's nice that even though night vale is one huge deadly conspiracy theory they are still pro love and are totally fine with cecilos.
Cecil- "good night... good night....good night."
Me- *having an emotional moment* wow I-
woman WELCOME TO NIGHT VALE IS A PRODUCTION OF COMMON PLACE BOOKS
"Ladies, gentlemen, you..."
But I thought You were dead?
its always surreal to hear cecil talk about actual shops and/or companies in the sponsors sections but its great because it just adds to the weirdness of this show even more
For some reason I got really freaked out by the predatory birds, but not by anything else this episode; luckily it isn't street cleaning day where I am, as I have also gone on a completely pre-planned holiday with a definite end date.
Also, the weather made me think of Cecilos for some reason...
“If there’s a flag, put it in the bag. If there’s none.. RUN.”
Maybe Street Cleaning Day is the day that the street cleaners clean all the unmarked trash.
*recording day 1 **7:05** pm*
I've been in this hidden room for already 2 days. I have heard that Street Cleaning is over.. But I am not sure.
I hear them. I hear screams. I dont really know... I'm going mad and food is almost empty...
I hear something- Ill act dead. Ill act like I died. Was it days?... or Months?..
see you later. goodbye.
My dog woke up and was super excited about the predatory birds.
Even as satire, that was a glorious description of a community that's made it through a tragedy
*hides under desk* Im here just listening not moving... hoping to survive street cleaning day..
+Yato -God of Calamity- That profile pic matches the eyes of someone who has survived many street cleaning days.
*is panicking while in bed because of stREET CLEANERS*
Whenever I watch WtNV, I always have a tab open with pictures of puppies if I get too creeped out. Puppies cure everything
I’m one of those depraved addicts that can’t get enough of wheat or it’s by-products
So far Stacy has survived longer than any other intern so far, and I hope nothing happens to her
Really nice weather we're having today
i just cant stop thinking about how it looked like when the street cleaners where attacking the people with *that* weather
This is one of those things that, if I really pay attention to what's being said, it's really disturbing, but Cecil's voice saying all of these insane and terrifying things so monotone and announcer-y is so hilarious that i'm completely fine with it--
*Slowly realizes I ate toast today* Oh snap....
You're screwed
I fell asleep listening to Night Val, it's the best thing ever
NICE PROFILE PIC YO
NO! Don't fall asleep while listening to night vale! You'll be taken to and eternal hell where it is street cleaning day every day! Carlos ' hair is forever cut short!
Yeah the blood chilling shrieks of predatory birds is really soothing
+Azzi Shadow4817 Not his perfect hair!!
I do this too...and I often wake up with surreal yet entertaining dreams
There are many kinds of terror. But the terror that is upon you is arguably... the worst.
The end of this one made me sad. But sadness is not allowed. the secret police have told me so.
this legitimately made me upset bc i love everyone in night vale
Sticka Duck Even Steve Carlsburg?!
+Libby Broome Don't forget about Telly the barber!
@@sharkydoesstuffandthings5014 telly the barber doesnt count as a someone
Night Vale turned their streets into a Mario Kart track. That is awesome!
lovely weather today
much agreed
This weather reminds me of Dave Strider.
Sorry not sorry.
XD
Kaitlyn Guzman XD and nice icon
Kaitlyn Guzman i thought the exact same thing a8out the weather !!!!!!!!
Great...I just imagined a Homestuck and Nightvale crossover
Artifulimpersonator
4:45 every once in a while, cecil says smth like "2 weeks ago" or "2 months ago", when the episode in question was only 7 or 9 episodes ago, which reminds me that each episode does not take place one linear, consistent day (or other peridot of time) after the other.
I love how 1k people liked this and there's only 8 dislikes.
THOSE 8 DISLIKES ARE DESERT BLUFF!
and Steve Carlsburg!! darn that Steve Carlsburg..
And Telly the barber
I love the weather
it is pretty good
The video randomly paused at 8:04 (without me knowing) so, I ended up not listening to anything for like 5 mins. I really thought it was part of the video. It made me strangely appreciate silence a bit more. Still though, after I checked back on the video, I saw it paused and now I'm just genuinely confused how that worked perfectly 😂
Y'know, this episode makes a lot of sense if you pretend that Cecil is a dog
Omg im relistening nightvale and this episode will live with me forever. It's cause the first time I was listening to this episode with my pet bunny and when the random predator bird noises came on he went fuckin feral and I could barely calm him down. The day Cecil Gershwin Palmer gave a panic attack to my bunny will always live in my head rent free 😭😂😂
The weather:
Sunny with a chance of The Mighty Glow Cloud.
that moment when ur tryna live ur life and listening to nightvale and tom milsom starts playing and u feel siccckkkkk
The weather sounded pretty good today.
Nice weather.
its all anyone said in the comments. tom milsom is my fave musician
i am currently listening to it and constantly waiting for cecil to explain what he'd do if somebody he loves (Carlos) was in danger because of the street cleaners
Suddenly Mario kart
When you want to like the video, but the likes are already at 666....
*hides in my room* OH NUUUUUUU!!!! STREET CLEANING DAAYYY *covers my body in ice* o-o
It's okay. You will live again.
I have prepared for this. *hides in fridge altered to still work while no longer being airtight after locking and boarding all his doors and windows up at the fourth floor after taking a strong paralyzing agent*
The weathers nice for street cleaning today ☺️
That closing was beautiful. Made me thankful to be alive.
do you ever just learn about clouds to flex on the secret police?
What if street cleaning is how Night Vale keeps itself from overpopulating by literally cleaning the streets of people......
permanently
The predatory bird calls were actually pretty relaxing
the sounds of predatory birds is exactly why I listen to night vale
also
siren-ception
*dives into underground bomb shelter* *boards it up with metal beams* *lies barely moving in the corner* Street...Cleaning....Day.....I....Must......Survive....
Amber and Wilson and a relationship that comes out of nowhere? ...Did they watch House before writing?
Good thing me, old woman Josie, our angels, and a few other individuals are safe and sound, hiding during cleaning day.
I learned so much about clouds this episode! I'll never look at one again
coital breath catching?? CECIL?? WHAT DID YOU AND CARLOS DO LAST NIGHT??!!!
He will knock four times...
is....is this a doctor who reference?
I wanted to make it to the valentine episode tonight, because it's valentine's day... but I don't think I'm going to make it.
YOU CAN DO IT!!!
Nothing will save you from street cleaning day. Nothing.
This is a heavy episode! Street Cleaning Day is true apocalyptic terror and the variety of silence was beautifully and uncomfortably described
I love how they sneaked a Stephen King's Dark Tower reference in there, talking about the "door leading to other worlds than these".
Haven't seen a nicer weathe rsince Closer by The Tiny
This too Shall pass is AMAZING too, as well as Closer. Though, my no. 1 is The Bus Is Late.
Green Apple
Last Song. No other.
i wasn't the only one who thought he was going to say Carlos instead of angles, right
The weather today sure was nice.
This episode is such a classic. It’s the one that made me fall in love with WTNV.
The ending was utterly poetic
I am desperately begging the fandom to compile an ASMR collection of Cecil's fantastic voice. Please. Someone. Help.
19:30 Um... is this a House reference?
Yes.
Most definitely
I was holding a banana when this episode started, and I'm now worried that Cecil's gonna start talking about me specifically any minute now.
I loved the weather today! Probably my favorite so far.
Well, that's terrifying.
Just imagine the chaos and killing but the only sound is the weather song with occasional screams and a few sounds like chainsaws (because who knows what's going on?) and crashing cars really dull , like a music video
