Gather ye round, settle down, grab a beer and listen in as I chat with David Spira and Peih-Gee Law of Reality Escape Pod about last week's episode - The Wicker Plan.
We also touch on why David and PG enjoy leaving one another for dead, we chat about the difficulties of switching you brain between game mode and story mode in an escape room, and we get a little insight into how they make REPOD.

We're joined this week by David Spira and Peih-Gee Law of Reality Escape Pod, where they have to work their way out of a burning wicker man where everything is designed to kill them.
Fire in the feet

Pollen in the head
It's a nightmare.
Here's a handout if you want to play along:

This week, Dom crafts a delightful puzzle where Ben and Jamie have to escape from Nitflex - the streaming service with a delightful set of portals we can jump into.
Dom also did a fantastic job at hosting this one, too. Tell us if you think he should host more often :) His alliteration skills were also on point.

Whoo boy do we go on some tangents with this one. From Cockneys to Wombles to Batman and back. And for those of you not from the UK - this is the wombles.
Ben and Dom were stellar pub friends, keeping the banter flowing when my internet connection went down ... several times.
Make sure you comment or send us a message with your answer to our Cockney rhyming slang challenge!
