Friends and enemies of The Infinite Escape Room,
Weβve made the difficult, but temporary, decision to take a hiatus from making episodes of The Infinite Escape Room podcast.
The reason is that all four of us are in different stages of life than when we started this podcast seven years ago.
[1/6]

Ha, thatβd be bloody marvellous. Though I think Iβve got my sights set on Nick Mohammed - manβs a Puzzle King π
What do the gang do as soon as the room starts?
They only go and bloody split up!
I ended up tracking their movements using Lego pieces on a battle map, D&D style.
It was a lot of fun to run this one

Watching ep. 1 of #celebritytraitors and seeing Jonathan Ross immediately start looking for clues and declaring βIβve done loads of escape roomsβ.
YES MAH BOI, REPRESENT!

Turns out Iβd duplicated a music clip and it had embedded itself into my VO track. No idea how it happened, but I suspect it was something to do with my editing past midnight π
"The most accurate depiction of an escape room in British media".

Publish podcast episode.
Go out for the day.
Realise there's 3 minutes of random music accidentally slotted into a conversation that dominates the audio.
It's gonna be that kind of Sunday .

Loved recording this episode. Always fun when we get chance to improv!
in a scorched wasteland beneath an orange sky, on a motorbike with a ramskull strapped to the handlebars, a road warrior sits, her head concealed by a spiked helmet and gas mask. over one shoulder she holds a large bazooka. she is twisted in the saddle to look behind her through a scope she holds in her other hand. she wears jeans and a cutoff t shirt with the phrase "BABIES ATE MY DINGO" on the front.
babies ate my dingo

In the thrilling conclusion to our Ice Cream Wars arc, the gang head to the Bournemouth Beachfront in search of a set of ice cream van keys. π
But things are a little more Pompeii than they'd bargained for... π₯

My favourite response to any Canon complaints:
I love these discussion episodes!
I highly recommend a hammock to complement the book
Why I Love Enamel Pins As Escape RoomΒ Swag
How to do escape room pins right.
As a puzzle designer, I 100% agree with this.
As a fairly lazy procrastinator with imposter syndrome, I 500% agree with this.
Happy 4th July to all our American friends!
