Friday Night Rock Block 11/28/08 – Save Harmack
If you missed the special edition of the Friday Night Rock Block this past friday – you missed an explosive show. What started with a on air debate with The Extreme Show quickly turned into an all out campaign to Save Harmack from his terminal illness. You see Harmack has been away for a while. His Block Party Show has been delayed the past two weeks, he canceled The OC this past Sunday, completely missed The ESCape Episode 47 last Wednesday, and took off early during The Friday Night Rock Block. While talking during commercial break, Al, Mike, Zedd, Mhykol, and Unknown Gamer plot a way to help Save Harmack and find a cure for his male breast cancer. Click below to download the highlights of the campaign!

No commentsHappy Thanksgiving To All of Our Fans!
On behalf of all of us here at The ESCape, we’d like to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. As mentioned in the podcast (Episode 47), Jak will be in studio playing music all day on GPN Radio, so if you wanna hear some great tunes while stuffing your faces, keep it tuned into GPN Radio all day.

Episode 47 – Fan Appreciation Night
We are one day away from Thanksgiving 2008 and here’s what to expect on our “Thanksgiving Show”:
- Its Fan Appreciation Night! Tonight we pay tribute to all of our dedicated and loyal fans, with some special surprises. We also let our fans in the chat room choose our Retro Review.
- Tas and Unknown Gamer join us on our ESCape Review Panel, as this week we take a look at Fallout 3. Plus, we catch up with Tas since the last interview, and get his input on some discovered Australian phrases.
- After The Extreme Show no-showed our invitation to come on our show via phone last week, Unknown Gamer called in their “Extreme Voicemail” to schedule himself an appearance for this past Friday. Was the Extreme Show “extreme” enough for UG?
- Kanye West is Our AOTW. Why? You’ll have to download and find out.
- Plus Jak interrupts the show with his 2 Cents Segment, which never actually aired live. It’s only exclusive to our podcasters, and another way of us thanking our loyal listeners.

No commentsEpisode 46 – Put Up, Or Shut Up
The ESCape returns after a 2 week hiatus due to a family emergency. If you recall earlier last week, we threw out an “Extreme Invitation” for anyone from the Extreme Show (the show who rips off countless bits from our show) to come on for their forever-long-ago challenged “debate”. It’s put up or shut up time. Did the Extreme Show accept the invitation? Also the Battle of the WOW Nerd Allstars Losers Bracket is up this week, and its Wae VS Mike (substituting for Steve). Who will win the free ticket to get back into the competition for Round 2? The guys also review Fable 2, 3 ESCape Podlists this week, and Crystalis in our Retro Review. We’ve also got a double AOTW, so download the show now!
