I don't get the BlackU Weather Report by Ollie Williams.
Like what is the purpose? I know that he talk really fast, but my friend claims this is racist? Am I being insensitive?!

Oh, please... it's supposed to be a running gag.
Tell your friend to "lighten" up, and don't sweat the small stuff.

It's a spoof of Al Roker.
Anyhow, your friend seems kind of dumb, no offense, because Ollie is not used for the racial humor. You're not being insensitive, I mean you're questioning your friend's stupid theory.

I'm black and i find it to be hilarious. It's supposed to be a sterotype that black men are kinda stupid and speak in simple sentences.
Yes it's kinda racist but so is a lot of stuff on that show.
