YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWhy did Isambard Brunel name his ship after Great Britain? Because Kingdom was his middle name! I forgot to work that one into the script but couldn't let it go to waste. Beyond having a mouthful of a name, Isambard just seems to enhance everything his touches, somehow this guy never seemed to work on "just a bridge" or "just a ship", no, it has to be revolutionary. Betcha there are a lot of fresh engineering graduates wishing they could get hired for the X-est Y's in the world. Oh, and I got my own mic but recorded this before I got a pop filter, so pardon the plethora of problematic plosives, please.
