Also, how did he get the furniture down there? Oh wait... he must have used a plunger.

Anyway, nice "digs".

Hooked a ground wire to the ant. terminal.
It must be true, because as a kid I read the Disney saga "Land Beneath the Ground", wherein the underground Earth dwellers known as Terries and Firmies explained how radio broadcasts go deep underground via the stations' ground wires, and can be heard via certain magnetic rocks. Here's a thumbnail of the story, though it doesn't mention the ground wire reference..

It works by receiving the ground wave signal.

Reception of the ground wave signal should have been very good.

And yes, the ground wave component of a broadcast signal is real.

And if Bugs Bunny is receiving the ground wave, what does he put in the other end of the antenna circuit?

Maybe he has to run a cable up to the surface, un-bury it and connect it to a metal plate just above the ground. That would be his (anti)ground connection.

Don´t mind me.

There's an Electric Plant growing in that flower pot, and that's what the radio is plugged into. It forms the antipode for the antenna.

....he probably has the Carrot Carrier Current Infotainment System, "C3I" installed so he can listen to his MP3s, Martian Transmissions (don't wanna miss Marvin's Radio Hour) and of course, his beloved Opera shows.

I'm gonna get one for my Y3K bunker someday...
