Are you thinking of the old adage about counting the seconds from the time you see the lightning to the time you hear the thunder?
Because this XKCD is having you measure the time between you see the lightning (visible photons) vs the time it takes the radio pulse (microwave or long wave photons) to reach your radio. Which is the joke
Yep, my mind filled in that, rather than what it it actually said.
