Escape Will Make Me Pod

Show Notes

Is the C.A.R.R.I. Event good? Is Marathon a Battle Royale now? Who is the big mid season patch for? ARE WE FINALLY GETTING A NEW CHEMISTRY SEGMENT? It's (probably) the last busy week of the season, and the boys have a lot to talk about in this two hour show between the new patch, experimental queues, and the first in-game event. The gang also talks about Ryan's increasing disappointment with Cryo Archive and some experimental ideas that would really shake up the game. Skarrow talks about science, or something, I'm not totally sure. Watch the video version of the show on YouTube via @Skarrow9 and @JakeTheAlright. Art by Michael Veselovsky
