It's the dog days of summer as Mary, Dan, and Mike get together to talk about charity stream marathons, lawn games, and their new Patreon. Also: Dan's interest in Banjo-Tooie is waning. Mary sells the guys on Skul: The Hero Slayer. Mike finally goes off about his love for (and frustrations with) Warframe.

It's another holiday weekend in the U.S. and the Fire Escapees are up to their usual shenanigans. Dan bought a pressure washer and things totally went as planned. Mary rode out the Pacific Northwest heat wave with a return to Sea of Thieves. Mike is pretty sure he's a Red Dead Online Guy (TM) now.
