Summary

There are only a few ways of getting out of it alive. The one rule - no matter how good it feels - DO NOT let sleep whisk you away.  The only options are as follows: 1.

Take the frozen goods and stick them into your clothing. That is how you stay alive if you are trapped inside of a commercial walk in freezer. Or at least that’s what they say but the odds of survival do not look good. The police are concerned that, that is where 5 year old, Ashley, is going to be. Maybe she accidentally locked herself in the freezer with no way out? The officers look through the freezer bins, cardboard boxes filled with packaged meats, and grocery bags… She’s is not there. But that’s the thing about humans - we all have a blind spot. They looked left, right, under the tables of the restaurant… but have they looked up? Full show notes at rottenmangopodcast.com

0:26.7	not that many hiding spots, which leaves just that one door, the steel door. It's like the size of a
0:34.8	small closet. Sometimes the room is, it's like a small room.
0:38.4	And if you step inside and you close that door behind you,
0:41.0	you might as well have taken a portal to a different world.
0:43.8	Because once that door clicks shut, the gasping, the shivering, the numbness,
0:49.0	you can't feel your ears, you can't feel your fingers.
0:51.1	You're trying to bang on the door to be let out.
0:53.9	But you're more clumsy.
0:55.7	It's normal because this is exactly what happens when you are trapped inside of a giant freezer.
1:00.9	The idea of working with a freezer big enough for you to walk into and then being trapped inside of one

1:12.6	I have yet to step foot inside of a commercial walk-in freezer,
