Lloyd Lindsay Young, known as "Double L" (born September 4, 1941)[1] is an American weather reporter who gained notoriety for his over-the-top delivery and antics.
He attended Los Angeles City College[2] and has been in the broadcasting business since 1962, when he started at Bakersfield, California radio station KWAK AM 970.
[4] He is also known for his outrageous weather pointers, including icicles, mannequin legs,[4] and a six-foot model of the Empire State Building with attached King Kong.
It is Young who says "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" (in the "Mike on the Mic" segment) from the 1989 album Paul's Boutique.
According to author Dan LeRoy in his book on Paul's Boutique, the group commissioned Young to appear on the album when they became a fan of his work on WWOR.
