207: Doomsday Bunkers, Oreo Vaults and a Third Strike

Batten down the hatches this week, everyone!

This podcast episode is going UNDERGROUND to discuss doomsday bunkers, Y2K, Albanian Bunker Fest and survival in a post-apocalyptic environment. Tune in for a lively game of “Which Bunker is Bogus?” as we highlight three bunkers — each more fanciful than the last — from the Svalbard Global Seed Vault (popularized by Cecilia Blomdahl), an Oreo Vault and an unbelievable story about a West Virginia man named Dale Trusdale.

After exploring life below the surface, we shift our sights up to the Greek Orthodox monastery of Mount Athos to introduce you to a monk named Michael Tolotos who, legend has it, died in 1938 without ever having seen a woman. Imagine his surprise to hear four women discussing that possibility on a podcast in 2023!

After we explore the underground realms and mountaintop Greek monasteries, we come back to the surface to take questions from listeners on the following: 

1. A two year relationship ends after a woman was caught aimlessly doodling her ex’s last name with her name. 
   
   
2. How many times is too many to get your teen out of trouble? Does a third strike change the approach? 
   
   
3. How would you handle a situation where you knew a co-worker and good friend fabricated data about you to earn a better bonus?
