This is WMEO 9 with Breaking News from the Nature Desk We Meow – You Listen
Banner: Good Morning friends. The bizarre just keeps getting worse and worse. Today we are following breaking news from Australia’s Antarctic research icebreaker, RSV Nuyina.
Balboa: Antarctica, that’s cold isn’t it?
Banner: Yes very cold but todays news shows that the Southern Ocean still has mysteries to share. RSV Nuyina reports that a sea monster surfaced right next to them.
Balboa: Good thing they got pictures. Without those, someone might say it was a myth. Doesn’t look like much of a monster to me. Around here, being photographed is apparently the only thing standing between “rare discovery” and “imaginary creature.”
Banner: Speaking of myths Pumpkin Spice is still in Scotland.
Balboa: Lets check in with him. Hey Pumpkin how goes it in the land of the kilts.Nessie
Meanwhile In Scotland, home of Bagpipes, Kilts and one Extremely Disgruntled Lake Monster
Pumpkin spice: Good morning Banner and Balboa. I’m still chatting with Nessie. She has a lot to say about her recent downgrade to Myth.
Banner: Just one day after scientists declared Nessie a myth, a mysterious creature has surfaced beside an Antarctic icebreaker.” Any comment on this development?
Nessie: See? SEE? What did I tell you?”
🎤 Pumpkin Spice: “Researchers describe the creature as a rare marine animal.”
🦕 Nessie: “That’s exactly what they said about me.”
🎤 Pumpkin Spice: “Nobody said that about you.”
🦕 Nessie: “Details.” I’m not saying it’s my cousin….
Pumpkin Spice: “But?”
🦕 Nessie: “I’m saying the family reunion is next month.”
🎤 Pumpkin Spice: “An intriguing development
Nessie: “One scientist declares me a myth and twenty-four hours later a sea monster appears next to a ship. Coincidence? I think not.”
🎤 Pumpkin Spice: “Scientists continue to believe it is a coincidence.”
Nessie: “Scientists have been very negative this week.”
Back to the News Desk
Banner: Thank you Pumpkin. As always, we appreciate your ongoing coverage from Scotland.
Balboa: So let me get this straight. Yesterday Nessie was declared a myth. Today a giant mystery creature pops up next to a ship in Antarctica.
Banner: That does appear to be the sequence of events.
Balboa: Sounds to me like the cryptids are staging a protest.
Banner: Scientists believe the sighting can be explained by known marine biology.
Balboa: Scientists said Nessie was imaginary too. Frankly, they’re having a rough week.
Banner: Fair point. Whatever the creature was, the encounter provided researchers with a remarkable close-up look at one of the Southern Ocean’s rare inhabitants.
Balboa: And if any other sea monsters would like equal time, our phone lines are open.
Banner: For WMEO News, I’m Banner.
Balboa: And I’m Balboa. Remember, just because something is rare doesn’t mean it’s mythical.
Banner: Unless you’re interviewing Nessie.
Balboa: In that case, we’re required to say the views expressed by sea monsters are their own.
Banner: We Meow, You Listen.
Both: Good day, everyone!
