The Dark and True Origins of SpongeBob’s SquarePants

SpongeBob SquarePants is based on actual place called Bikini Atoll in the Marshall Islands. It not so subtly references the 67 nuclear bombs detonated underwater as testing that went on over there during the Cold War.

This is part of my Office Hours series, stuff they don’t teach you in school! Make sure you’re subscribed to our YT channel, so you don’t miss the DINOSAUR of a video we’re dropping at the end of the month!
