The Fire Escape

The lads are coming at you from across the globe to discuss space crime and irradiating a hurricane.

The lads discuss Birmingham, England, meth comas and how to live in a modern day community.

The lads chat about theories on Jeffrey Epstein and Chris Cuomo. The German language is discussed at length.

The lads get serious talking about just what the hell is going on in America right now.

We talk about new British PM Boris Johnson as well as the intersection between individual and group identities.

The Lads were graciously invited in to the home of previous guest, Hannah Elliott, and her main man, Magnus Walker (what a name that, eh? goes well with the beard).Magnus and Hannah are effortlessly cool in a way you can only be if you are as kind and generous as they are and we here at Fire Escape Industries hope that you are left feeling like you too sat out on the criss-cross ladders of the escape with all five of us.We talk about a four day race throughout the Italian countryside, as well as get into the finer details of our accents, or lack there of with regards to the PNW raised Elliott. There are laughs. There are stories. There are Hot Wheels.

The lads congratulate world's steepest road, Ffordd Pen Llech of Harlech Wales, and peek into the Alabama zeitgeist.

The Lads talk about VR, the Sony Walkmann (German?!) and America's "Protestant Work Ethic" (also, Germany?!).

The lads talk everything from the USWNT win over England (again) to the North Korean ruler's love of Basketball. We also canonically establish George Washington ads the patron saint of the U.S. Stay tuned until the end for a bonus clip from a certain holidayh themed movie.

Topics in this episode range from the absurdities of the banking system, what notes drug dealers are known for, artificial intelligence, 'phone horns', time travel and Mars exploration. We are woefully underqualified to talk about any of this, but that won't stop us! Also, Zimbabwe is selling some elephants if anyone wants a couple.
