You don’t have to be in jail to stage a great escape. In this episode, August and Ryan share stories of their greatest escapes, from leaving home to start their own lives and struggling to acclimatize to new surroundings, to more worldly adventures and how to stay safe by being aware of your surroundings. Our esteemed guest is current police officer and former corrections officer Valentino Possi. He shares what it was like to finally escape his home of Sault Ste. Marie—ironically, by becoming a corrections officer, tasked with preventing a great escape. He also shares how he uses motorcycle road racing as a form of escape, despite the frequent injuries associated with the sport. This episode’s Word Cocktail looks at what it means to be “on the lam.” Fact or False challenges our guest’s deductive abilities with two epic escape stories. From starting a new life in a new city, to finding “the rhythm,” to esoteric knowledge about the mating patterns of grizzly bears (seriously), this episode of Cavalier Conversations is all about escaping to freedom.
