US Naval Observatory Master Speaking Clock

Here is a brief excerpt of the US Naval Observatory Master Speaking Clock from Washington, DC and Colorado Springs, CO.

I'm strung out on this thing. It's got the soothing, Cold War voice, like he's the same guy who narrated any filmstrip from back in the day.
I like it because it soothes me, but also terrifies all the movements from my bowels.
Universal time: Nap. Love me some Naval Observers.

I love it when universal time is announced, especially when everything has 3 syllables. 17 hours, 42 minutes, 35 seconds, for example.

[@Supuhstar]

Worth a remix tbh

[@JennyBenFoldsFan421]

This is oddly soothing

Imagine a teacher using this for detention... I'd probably fall asleep.

[@tombothewhiteazn]

Unless the kid is autistic. In that case, it could be a dream come true. 😃

[@rusty9287]

There's a phone number that if you call this, it plays the speaking clock on repeat.

[@mariostar13]

Eastern Time: [phone] and [phone]
Mountain Time: [phone]

@@mariostar13 SWEET! I've tried to find a number, the others I found didn't work! Many many many thanks!

[@fatboydashredder9877]

It's a pretty cool sounding audio clip, when me and my friends used to be OBSESSED with Naval Warfare.

[@michaelbauers8800]

I live in Springs, but don't think there's a way to visit the clock.

[@lroussarie]

Nice.

[@cherrysdiy5005]

I only discovered this existed when KSTX Texas Public Radio started playing this instead of the _BBC World Service_ by mistake for a minute or two.

You need to fix this problem because the Americas should be in the Far East not in West End.

[@englandbengal]

What kind of nonsense are you talking about?

[@solymanalybiek3239]

take it or leave it.

[@englandbengal]

@@solymanalybiek3239 seriously your comment makes no sense. What do you mean? Are you making a comment on politics or geography? Very unclear what you want.

[@solymanalybiek3239]

@@englandbengal Both.

[@englandbengal]

@@solymanalybiek3239 so are you wanting all the regions to change? Like the Middle East will now be the Middle West? Japan will be a western nation? Asia will be in the west? America I’m the East? Is this what you’re trying to say? Really at a loss for what you’re trying to espouse.
