PG's Playhouse #2: Y2K with Tommy Honton

Reality Escape Pod - Escape Rooms & Immersive Games

In between Reality Escape Pod Season 8 and 9 we are starting a brand new show. PG's Playhouse.

Remember Y2K? The end-of-the-world that came and went without a hitch? Guest Tommy Honton joins us again to explore what really went down in this episode of PG's Playhouse. Our game today is called New Beginnings, where we take the names of old fads and transform them into something new by changing the first letter. David then walks us through a short history of Y2K, the fear mongering about a global shutdown and how the prevention plans went off without a hitch (mostly). Tommy also brought a game testing our knowledge of Greek metric prefixes.
