Best of Escape Hatch: The Matrix (1999)

We know, we know…we said we’d be back in a week during the Mailbag ep, but I didn’t realize there was ANOTHER week before we got back. So Jason and I fired up the mics from vacation, and recorded a special new retrospective of the episode our listeners selected as the greatest Escape Hatch ever (it was actually Dune Pod at this point - but STILL), the first appearance of the actor from Warrior, Banshee, and See, Hoon Lee!

Waaay back in the simple days of April of 2023, right as a little new technology known as ChatGPT was suddenly bursting into the mainstream, we covered the biggest science fiction masterpiece since Blade Runner, the Wachowski’s The Matrix. Hear our finest hour, plus catch up with what Jason and I have been up to over the holidays!
