Shane Gillis goes head to head with Danny McBride in an absurdly funny new ad for prediction market platform Kalshi.

McBride wrote the four-minute commercial, which stars Gillis as a weatherman who can’t seem to get the forecast right. McBride isa meteorologist at a competing network who is somehow always spot on.

Fed up with his lousy predictions, Gillis puts on a pantyhose mask and goes to McBride’s home, where he finds his rival offering meatloaf and rosemary potatoes to a mysterious oracle played by Deep Roy, who played the lead Oompa Loompa in Johnny Depp’s “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” and who had a guest role on McBride’s “Eastbound & Down.”
