Resonance FM broadcast two bunker-tastic Berlinshire Micro Clearspots on 17th/18th December 2007.
In May 2007, I visited the Story of Berlin, a museum located just off shoppers’ paradise Ku’damm, and the site of a large nuclear bunker. This converted car park and JG Ballard-esque spook chamber is still fully functional, and was one of 11 bunkers built in West Berlin to accommodate a paltry percentage of the population in the event of a nuclear war.
In part one, guide Maritta Horwarth talks to me about living conditions, air supplies, and chances of survival inside the Atombunker. And in the second part of our tour, we chat about plumbing, airlocks, and handy ways of protecting yourself from a nuclear blast.
