Show Notes

Happy Valentine’s Day! If you’re feeling a little tingle running through your skin, it could be love. Or it could be ants. This week we are happy to welcome Joshua’s wife, Adrienne English Scrimshaw, as our special guest. She’s brought us an episode of Escape entitled “Leiningen Versus the Ants,” based on the short story by Carl Stephenson. Can the power of William Conrad’s voice withstand an unstoppable army of ants? Can the women and oxen contain their excitement? Would this be better if it were a comic book featuring a character named Von Mohl?
