The Wicker Plan (with David Spira & Peih-Gee Law)
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
Bees in the arms
Pollen in the head
It's a nightmare.
Here's a handout if you want to play along:
Wicker man schematic
Check out Reality Escape Pod and say hi to David at @roomscapeartist and Peih-Gee at @peihgee.
And remember - don't snort bees, kids. It'll mess you up.
Your solvers this week were David Spira and Peih-Gee Law.

A Pretentious Pint At The Garrick Club.
Join Annekoos, Bailey, Mike and Aled as they sip their overpriced tipples in The Garrick Club, Jon's natural home. We kick off by discussing the great injustices of Jon's previous room (chief among them that he inadvertently told them not to bother taking notes). Topics of digression then include Overengineered Light Switches, Corporate Flunkies, The Rise of Clickbait Journalism, The Capabilities of The Scorpion and The Death Of Self. Standard night at the pub, then.

The Highrarchy.
Mike's back! And what an absolute hellscape he's returned to! He joins Annekoos, Aled, and Bailey as they wrangle another Jon shaped disaster of misdirection. Tune in and listen to them slowly go mad as they try to figure out who's on top, and what top is, exactly.

A little dribble at The Golden Streak
Join us at The Golden Streak where Dom, Ben and I chat about last week's episode, try to name a Jason Statham film Ben's actually seen, and chat about the current trend for bullshit documentaries.
This week's recommendations (gods help me)

Stainless steel (you heard that right)
The act of swimming (yup, it's one of those episodes) -
Are you still watching?
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.
Visuals for your delight

A Night Cap at The Counting House
After a marathon full length escape room Annekoos and Aled join Jon in the vaults of The Counting House. We pick over the bones of The Heist, delve into the affect that the medium of delivery has on the difficulty of different puzzles, reflect on the inherently self defeating nature of late stage capitalism and then talk about Anne of Green Gables.
Standard night out in your thirties, basically.
