Lunch & Learn with Lloyd Lindsay Young
Thursday, June 12, 2025
11:45AM - 1:30PM
Location: Buttercup Diner & Bar
A 2023 inductee in the Bay Area Radio Hall of Fame, weather reporter Lloyd gained notoriety for his over-the-top delivery and antics. Young grew up in Hollywood, attended Los Angeles City College and broke into broadcasting in 1962, when he started at Bakersfield’s KWAK AM. His trademark intro was ”Hellooooo (insert city)”, which he started doing in Idaho. Working at KNAK in Salt Lake City, his big break came when KGO’s news director heard him on the air while on a skiing vacation in Sun Valley in the 1970s.
Starting in 1996, Young was the weatherman on San Francisco’s KGO Radio, working the afternoon drive-time newscast. He added the morning drive-time slot in 2009.
Young crossed platforms performing “it’s a trip, it’s got a funky beat, and I can bug out to it” in the Beastie Boys song “B-Boy Bouillabaisse.” The group had commissioned Young to appear on their album when they became a fan of his work. Young also has cameo appearances in the films “Working Girl” and “Age Isn’t Everything.”
