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.

SURPRISE, you're doing a real escape room, a full length one, that is real. Or was real. Once. In my mind. In your mind. Well, in my mind first, then in your mind. Minds are great aren't they. Aren't they? Do you care? Do you mind? I don't mind. Don't mind me. Mind out there, I'm doing my mindfulness.Deep breath now. Mind the gap. I may have gotten carried away with today's sponsor.
