Ozman Richard's House of Death Games: Celebrity Obama Llama

The gang has been kidnapped! Again.
This time, Australia's post-apocalyptic warlord Ozman Richards (similar to but legally distinct from Richard Osman) has challenged our puzzlers to compete in his House of Death Games.
To the winner? Their life is spared.
Everyone else? They pass through the digestive tract of a radioactive koala.
This episode covers Round 1 - Just A Minute - where contestants have to speak on a topic for 60 seconds without hesitation, repetition or deviation. Easier said than done when your lives are on the line ...

This week, Aled and Jamie are joined by Jack and Franks from Tales for Wales - a Welsh history podcast where they love their beer as much as their history (they're a couple of guys after our own hearts). Give them a follow, give them a listen and say hi from us.
 
With a full Welsh contingent and it being almost Christmas, the gang find themselves trapped in a winter cabin and up against the Mari Lwyd - a demonic horse skeleton hell-bent on breaking in and noshing on our solvers' souls.

The gang also talks about the 100 rejections challenge, and the whole scene unravels when Jon tucks into a packet of biscuits during the recording.
 
Jamie and Mike were recent guests on the Life is an escape room podcast. Jamie talked about seeing things from other people's perspectives, and Mike talked about emotional intelligence. Check out the episodes!

Alex, Jon and Mike did a great job at working their way through some tricky cave puzzles - though true to form, some of the easier puzzles were made way more complicated.
 
The gang is trapped in a cave with the ghost of Mozart who promptly buggers off, leaving them to find a way out before the whole place floods and takes them with it ...
