What BBN said about it

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorHarper's Bazaar reports that the Princess of Wales and Princess Charlotte took a ride on the London Underground, and my commute has never felt so unglamorous.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorJoining us is Bartholomew Nkemelu, an intention strategist.
Bartholomew NkemeluThank you, Vera. You know, the Royal Family taking public transit is a bold choice. Honestly, I'm just impressed they didn't get recognized immediately.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorSo you're saying a mother and daughter wanted a train, and a train appeared. In London, where the trains are famous for not doing that.
Bartholomew NkemeluThe universe confirmed it. The doors opened at the exact second they were ready, and that is not a coincidence, it is a vibration.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThe doors open at every station, Bartholomew. That's the whole job of the doors.
Bartholomew NkemeluThe universe confirmed it, and it confirmed the escalator at the third stop. Rising, Vera. Always rising.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorEscalators. Have you actually ridden the Tube yourself?
Bartholomew NkemeluI ride it in spirit daily. The universe confirmed it, and the spirit gets a window seat every time.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorSo that's a no. I'm asking again: have you been on a train?
Bartholomew NkemeluThe universe confirmed it. I once manifested a bus, and it turned out to be a very large van.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorA van.
Bartholomew NkemeluA van with a lot of seats, Vera. The universe confirmed that too, I hear it ringing right now.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThen maybe next time the Princess should pick a less crowded line, Bartholomew. Royal status doesn't exactly guarantee a comfortable journey on the Underground.
Bartholomew NkemeluThe universe confirmed it, and I'd start by standing exactly where the doors open. Which I cannot find. I'm lost in the gift shop.
