Bridge story error

Sept 13

Nickn@mele55

There was a millionaire who bought the “London bridge”. He had it dismantled in London, every piece numbered and reassembled in the USA. When it was finished he was disappointed because it was not the bridge he thought he had bought. He thought he had bought the iconically famous bridge that everyone tended to think of as the London Bridge but is actually named the Tower Bridge. The true London bridge, the one he had bought was a bridge that was kind of boring. Just like many people think the big clock in London is called Big Ben but Big Ben is not the clock. I believe the bridge is in the desert somewhere still. I remember there was a law suit regarding the Bridge that the millionaire lost. That was the story behind, “Can I sell you a Bridge”.

Like most iHeart shows it’s full of ads, makes it very difficult to listen to. I would recommend something else regardless of how good the non-ad content is.
Love it, love it
