Hello, everyone, everyone, welcome back to the Fire Escape cast.

It is episode 73, I believe. I'm Mike. That's Dan. Hello. That's Mary.

Hello. You probably know us. It's January. I think it's still January. So presumptuous. What if they don't?

What if it's their first episode of Fire Escape cast? And they're just testing us out.

And this is their first episode ever.

Describe, Mary, describe Dan in one sentence for anybody who's new to the show.

Okay.

He is part gamer, part wrestling weirdo,

producer rapscallion, doesn't know how to cook,

or do many normal things, but is a very nice person.

But a heel and kind of a bastard too.

Okay, I was gonna say that was all most of that. That was way too civil up until you. I made a tahini dressing last week. Yeah, but it was the first time. I toasted chickpeas and breadcrumbs and made a salad. It was, I cut kale. Anyway. Yeah, people do that all the time. You didn't and like made sure the world knew about it so that you could bring it up now to defend the fact that you don't know how to cook. I was impressed with myself. I saw Brian Schape post an Instagram of a salad that looked good and thought, hey, I'll try that. And I texted them, like, where did you get the recipe? And he sent it to me and I tried it and it was very good.

How would you describe, Dan,

if you think mine is too nice?

Me?

Yes. You said I was too soft.

Go on, Mr. Hardman.

Mr.
