It's our annual RPG Special! Mike, Tony, Jamie and Anna are GM'd by Dom - who's put together a lightweight RPG system to lead us on a madcap sleep agent adventure.
 
This is part 1, and it'll conclude next week with, you guessed it, part 2.
We had a lot of fun with this - everyone went to Mike's house for the day, sat around the dining table, had a lot of beer and all of his mead and whisky, giggled non stop and had a laugh.

This week, Jamie ,Mairi, Mike, Tony have a little chat about last week's episode - Stop The Presses! - where we briefly discuss why medieval popes were literally the worst, as well as exploring whether Jeff Bezos trapped in an Egyptian tomb is an immersion-breaking anachronism.

Enjoy!

After last week's disaster in the Desert, we descend on The Golden Draught - the only pub in the The Infinite Escape Room metaverse that's carbon neutral, and connects the privvies to the pumps.

Jon, Jamie, Anakos and Dom are stuck in Mike's horrid team building desert, and with a well researched and perfectly mimicked celebrity guest...

Join the team as they reflect on last weeks Creepy Mansion puzzle, a room that felt very nicely polished so long as you don't look at it too closely. The discussion then moves on to consider the English weaknessfor morally corrupt but charming upper class charlatans, chat about rifling and what it did for the musket and the bizarre impact that banning cycling helmets might have on the roads.
And all of without any of us bursting in to tears.

Another month, another cheery show by Jon. Themes for this week: Death, Murder, Eternal Rest in the Grave, Grammar Pedantry and disastrous International Relations.
Featuring, Dom, Aled, Annekoos and eventually an Estate Agent called Connor.

The conversation took a few turns, starting from a recommendation for French radio and taking SEVERAL left turns to end up with the line, "I bet Jeff Goldblum's got more cum in him."
 
In context, it makes perfect sense I swear.
