00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.520
I think you're gonna like this. It is on one

00:00:03.520 --> 00:00:06.480
of your themes. I'm telling you, I really came

00:00:06.480 --> 00:00:09.179
prepared for these minis. This one is from the

00:00:09.179 --> 00:00:13.900
bbc .com. Three days ago. Can you believe how

00:00:13.900 --> 00:00:16.920
up -to -date my news articles are? Wow. I'm just

00:00:16.920 --> 00:00:19.039
blowing it out of the article. Don't you mean

00:00:19.039 --> 00:00:24.199
four years and three days ago? I do. Three days,

00:00:24.239 --> 00:00:26.420
I better give you a date. What was three days

00:00:26.420 --> 00:00:30.800
ago? February 19th, 2026. And this is from Paul

00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:34.320
Murphy, brace yourself. Collapsed nuclear bunker

00:00:34.320 --> 00:00:37.890
to be left on beach. A former Cold War bunker

00:00:37.890 --> 00:00:41.130
that fell into the sea in East Yorkshire last

00:00:41.130 --> 00:00:43.929
month is to be left on the beach to disintegrate.

00:00:44.109 --> 00:00:46.630
The brick structure on the eroding coastline

00:00:46.630 --> 00:00:49.850
at Toonstall was originally designed as a lookout

00:00:49.850 --> 00:00:52.850
post to detect nuclear explosions. The Crown

00:00:52.850 --> 00:00:55.649
Estate, which owns the beach below, said it was

00:00:55.649 --> 00:00:58.049
safer to leave the remains of the building in

00:00:58.049 --> 00:01:01.250
place. I'm actually surprised that's not where

00:01:01.250 --> 00:01:04.769
British Andy got placed in that last house he

00:01:04.769 --> 00:01:09.109
had to live at. Ha ha ha I love that. It's true.

00:01:09.310 --> 00:01:11.469
It seems fitting, doesn't it? Quote, following

00:01:11.469 --> 00:01:14.269
a risk assessment, we have decided to leave the

00:01:14.269 --> 00:01:16.670
monitoring post in place on the beach, end quote,

00:01:16.769 --> 00:01:19.170
said the independent business which belongs to

00:01:19.170 --> 00:01:22.109
the monarch. The bunker succumbed to the mercy

00:01:22.109 --> 00:01:24.769
of the sea last month and is believed to have

00:01:24.769 --> 00:01:27.829
fallen at some point overnight on the 22nd or

00:01:27.829 --> 00:01:30.629
23rd of January. The brick building is believed

00:01:30.629 --> 00:01:33.489
to be almost 70 years old and was designed as

00:01:33.489 --> 00:01:36.129
a monitoring post in the event of a nuclear war.

00:01:36.209 --> 00:01:38.709
It was one of a number of nuclear monitoring

00:01:38.709 --> 00:01:41.489
posts around the UK according to the historical

00:01:41.489 --> 00:01:44.689
research group Subterranea Britannica. Known

00:01:44.689 --> 00:01:48.969
as the Tunestall ROC, Royal Observer Corpse Post,

00:01:49.269 --> 00:01:51.969
it is believed to have been built in 1959 and

00:01:51.969 --> 00:01:54.989
decommissioned in the early 1990s. Nobody knows

00:01:54.989 --> 00:01:57.650
a whole lot about this bunker or even when it

00:01:57.650 --> 00:02:00.750
fell onto the beach. it seems to be a rather

00:02:00.750 --> 00:02:03.829
big mystery yeah it can't be a thing that people

00:02:03.829 --> 00:02:07.390
came across too often no but its biggest threat

00:02:07.390 --> 00:02:10.069
has been coastal erosion and the crown estate

00:02:10.069 --> 00:02:12.810
said the cost of removing it outweighs the risk

00:02:12.810 --> 00:02:15.129
of leaving it there the structure which weighs

00:02:15.129 --> 00:02:18.750
30 tons presented no active risk the estate said

00:02:18.750 --> 00:02:21.569
and it was not possible to enter it the curious

00:02:21.569 --> 00:02:24.610
feature in its crumbling landscape will be inspected

00:02:24.610 --> 00:02:27.770
annually to ensure public safety the area has

00:02:27.770 --> 00:02:30.270
some of the fast a road and coastline in the

00:02:30.270 --> 00:02:34.069
UK according to the Environment Agency. But nothing

00:02:34.069 --> 00:02:36.370
will be done about it because there's no rich

00:02:36.370 --> 00:02:39.610
people on it. Exactly. So I thought that was

00:02:39.610 --> 00:02:43.710
kind of a nice little adjacent to the rich people

00:02:43.710 --> 00:02:47.289
and their emotions and climate change. It's quite

00:02:47.289 --> 00:02:49.530
nice there, it's just nobody gives a shit about

00:02:49.530 --> 00:02:52.889
it because no rich people are currently residing

00:02:52.889 --> 00:02:56.389
there. British Andy was jailed before he could

00:02:56.389 --> 00:02:59.949
be moved to it. Exactly, and you never know.

00:03:00.210 --> 00:03:02.990
The king could be listening to this and we could

00:03:02.990 --> 00:03:05.949
spark an idea there. You just never know where

00:03:05.949 --> 00:03:09.069
the opportunities are gonna come, and if it does,

00:03:09.129 --> 00:03:11.430
you're welcome. You say that, but I think we

00:03:11.430 --> 00:03:13.629
used too many colorful words that would taint

00:03:13.629 --> 00:03:17.770
the royal ears, and we are forbidden for the

00:03:17.770 --> 00:03:22.409
finer folk to listen to. We have to be. We're

00:03:22.409 --> 00:03:25.849
the real English. We're Canadian. The pure English.

00:03:27.439 --> 00:03:29.819
See Billy Meyer said English is not pure, but

00:03:29.819 --> 00:03:33.060
he did not know Canadians I assume despite the

00:03:33.060 --> 00:03:35.819
fact that he has a Canadian franchise or whatever

00:03:35.819 --> 00:03:39.620
He does anyhow. That's the mini for today that

00:03:39.620 --> 00:03:42.639
I was prepared. Okay, very prepared for don't

00:03:42.639 --> 00:03:44.919
let it make you feel uncomfortable I am a little

00:03:44.919 --> 00:03:46.639
too uncomfortable because we're sitting at four

00:03:46.639 --> 00:03:49.199
and a half minutes. I'm just like yeah, we were

00:03:49.199 --> 00:03:52.699
too prepared. Yeah But that just gives you guys

00:03:52.699 --> 00:03:56.840
what 48 hours and an extra like Seven minutes

00:03:56.840 --> 00:03:59.719
four minutes somewhere in that range to get prepared

00:03:59.719 --> 00:04:02.539
for the episode on Friday. So yeah, you do it

00:04:02.539 --> 00:04:04.159
I'm not gonna waste some more time. Bye. Yeah,

00:04:04.219 --> 00:04:04.319
bye
