So walking out of that conversation with Heidi, it felt like she had mapped out this like crazy wall of suspects connected to the palace by like red string. And all that was left for us to do was like trace that red string until we found a suspect who would talk and like flip somebody. Are they convicted of a crime?

They're convicted of having seen the swimming pool of Buckingham Palace and not telling us about it yet. In the world of podcasting, holding on to narratively interesting information is a crime. It is a crime and they're found guilty.

So the first person that I reached out to was the tabloid guy that Heidi told us about, like the Mirror reporter who had snuck into the palace and snapped a photo of the queen's cornflakes or whatever. But it turned out that the tabloid had dealt with some legal action after this piece came out.

And so they had actually agreed not to publish any more information from their reporting, which meant that the tabloid guy was out. But the next step that I took was just to start reaching out to the people on LinkedIn. And as reporter Heidi Blake mentioned, there's basically three people who had mentioned the swimming pool on their profile. There's a 20-something project manager.

There's a retired electrician. And there is a maintenance officer turned aromatherapist, all of whom were one-time employees of Buckingham Palace but are no longer.

That's not a chapter you expect to find in a book about Buckingham Palace, but it's one that I was pretty charmed to find.

So, yeah, the first guy I decided to reach out to is the 20-something project manager. He worked at the palace just a few years ago, and the clue on his profile that he might have the goods that we're looking for is that he was involved with realizing, quote, substantial carbon-saving opportunities for the on-site swimming pool plant operation. Okay, that feels like... It feels promising.

It feels like this guy would have seen the pool, right? A neon sign. So... I like sleuthed this guy out on the internet.
