    I just began listening to this episode and stopped at your words re “stop drop and roll.” I know this has nothing to do with the actual content of the podcast but it is important in terms of safety.

    “Stop, Drop, and Roll” IS still the right thing to do if your clothes catch fire. That has NOT changed. “High tailing it” when your clothes are on fire is the worst thing to do.

    The only reference I could find to it NOT being taught is this link:
    https://www.wowt.com/content/misc/Why-fire-safety-no-longer-teaches-stop-drop-and-roll-491116921.html

    It isn’t saying that it is no longer recommended, but that teaching it to *young children* is not recommended because they over generalize it to mean that’s what they should do in case of ANY fire rather than just when your CLOTHES are on fire.

    I know this is a tangent, but since safety is concerned I thought I should speak up!

      Oh this is funny. Yes if your clothes are on fire, don’t start running. Good point.
