2021 TIER Holiday Special, EP2

It's July and the TIER gang are going on holibobs! But don't fear, we shan't leave you high and dry - you're going to get a four part mini-series!
This week, bask briefly in the sun before learning how our four presenters get locked into a beach hut. Jon leads the puzzling by putting us in a potentially explosive predicament.
 
Which one of us will wield the power of attraction?
Who can see the bigger picture?
Are any of us left flagging...?
 
Answers and yet more questions lie in this weeks episode of TIER!

It's been suggested by some that my episodes are unecessarily bleak. To remedy this, I give you Escape The Car Crash, featuring Michael Buble.
 
Will Mike recover from being a Cyclist?
Will Jamie make a good Poultergeist?
Will Aled ever forgive me?
 
Tune in and find out.

Unusually starting this episode with a PSA. The subject matter of this room hinges on a suicide attempt which some listeners might, understandably, not want to make light of in any way. While I hope we handle it sensitively, it may not be for everyone.
Hopefully helpfully, if this troubles you in a serious way, you may want to talk to someone about it.
The Samaritans offer a listening service that can be reached on the following numbers:
UK: 116 123
U.S: (877) 870-4673 (HOPE)

This week the team find themselves locked in a self-driving Van with everything they posess and the ominous number 5.
Will Ben be able to pronounce his own name?
Will Anna murder another slug?
Will Jamie make it to his second Jab?
Would Dom make a good Poultergeist?
And finally, when Jon meets St Peter at the Pearly Gates, will he ever be forgiven for this...
 

Ah, the great outdoors; beautiful flowers, captivating foliage, the wreckage of a sports car in a fountain. Bliss. This week join Jamie, Laura and Mike as they wrestle with Jon's topical Garden puzzle. Why is it topical?....we'll get to that.
 
Will Jamie nail a Deep South accent?
Will Q's identity finally be revealed?
Will Laura finally call time on her first marriage?
 
Tune in, find out!

IT'S THE FOURTH AND FINAL PAAAART!
You know the score - if you haven't listened to the other episodes then whiz back and give them a schwiz. It will all make much more sense. Here's:
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Join our merry band as they conclude their fangrobulous premier adventure:
Jamie - Our noble GM and high quality prop photoshopper
Tony - Dwarf Rogue Caskell Marwen, the aunty in sensible shoes
(Emma) Bailey - Half Ork Barbarian Bailinator Jones, so full of rage she might need a little sleep
Ben - Forquare Quendian, the Halfling Wizard, tiny psycopath and concealer of cages
Mike - Human Bard Clam Strumlington, master of genital insults
Will they find Pilchard Pete? Who's doing that horrid chanting? Aren't tombs supposed to have dead bodies in them someplace? If you're any way intrigued by those questions then give this sweet mess a listen. Also if you want to play along with the puzzle, you'll find the following visual aids tres useful:

We hope you enjoyed this brief departure from our normal format. Normal service will be resumed next week...until our Christmas specials :D
And yeah, hit us up on the Twitters or the Facebook. Or if you're mega cool and want to help us out with our hosting and software, head along to Patreon.
(By the way - we recorded this miniseries in two monster recording sessions. We've broken them in to smaller chunks to keep it all sensible and listenable. This is first part of the second recording, which clocked in at just shy of three and a half hours 0_0.)

PART 3 BABY OOH YEAH
If you haven't listened to Parts 1&2 then slow down cowboy! Give them a listen first and this whole crazy kahoot will make sense.
Last time we found ourselves murdering the local wildlife in search of Pilchard Pete, with a tame goblin in tow. Rejoin us as we stand at the entrance to some sort of deliniated tomb, with:
Jamie - Our noble GM and goblin impersonator
Tony - Dwarf Rogue Caskell Marwen, cockney flower
(Emma) Bailey - Half Ork Barbarian Bailinator Jones, the boss of cross
Ben - Forquare Quendian, the Halfling Wizard, and vermin conjourer
Mike - Human Bard Clam Strumlington, the chocolate teapot of the party.
Why not cast your eyes over this mysterious puzzle component as well...
If you like the episode, and want us to do more weird and wonderful stuff like this, then why not let us know via the Twitters or the Facebook? Alternatively you might be too busy being the coolest person alive, in which case you should probably head straight across to our Patreon.

Iiiit's Part 2 of our Dungeons and Dragons Special!
If you haven't listened to Part 1 then hold your horses! Everything will make a whole lot more sense if you give it a listen first :)
Last time we found ourselves dropped in to a fantasy world, slapped with new identities:
Jamie - Our noble GM and owner of a seductive barmaid impersonation
Tony - Dwarf Rogue Caskell Marwen, and stealthy watcher of old men
(Emma) Bailey - Half Ork Barbarian Bailinator Jones, and the bane of slow table service
Ben - Forquare Quendian, the Halfling Wizard, and seducer of grunting hand models
Mike - Human Bard Clam Strumlington, wants a shag or a sandwich and isn't fussy which.
...join us in part 2 as we escape the tavern, and throw our puzzle solving skills to the wind as we start putting the hurt on the local wildlife. Meat's back on the menu boys!

(By the way - we recorded this miniseries in two monster recording sessions. We're going to break them in to smaller chunks for the episodes themselves to keep it all sensible and listenable. This is part 2 of the first recording. Due to the length of the recordings, we've not been able to give these quite as much attention to detail as we'd normally try to, so do please forgive us if you hear any unedited farts.)

Iiiit's Part 1 of our Dungeons and Dragons Special!
We've been making escape rooms for over two years now, so we jumped at the opportunity when the lovely Jamie Gibbs from the Armchair Escapist offered to give us a fortnight off to play a short escaperoom adjacent D&D campaign, with puzzles, goblin abductions, and nice bread.
So join...
Jamie - Our noble GM and master of a thousand rustic voices
Tony - Experienced D&D player, consumer of birthday beer, and the Masonry obsessed Dwarf Rogue Caskell Marwen
(Emma) Bailey - D&D newbie, baker of banana bread, and the faces to the wall half ork Barbarian Bailinator Jones
Ben - D&D newbie, awful punsmith, and Forquare Quendian, the Halfling Wizard
Mike - D&D agnostic, hungover, and the dinner and dicking focused Bard, Clam Strumlington
...as we find ourselves trapped in this new world, slammed in to new personalities, and attempting to escape the crazy fantasy world. Oh yeah and don't worry - there's still a good old escape room puzzle in there you lucky folk.
Here's the resource you'll need by the way for the puzzle...
