G30 75: Anniversary Plus Escape Room Equals Awesome Geek:30 Happy Hour | Celebrating Geek Culture and Craft Beer

    • Technology

Where to start... Wow... No words...Thank you all so much for following us through 75 (+/-) wonderful episodes! As a treat, Emily from the 501st and winner of our Chewbacca impersonation contest came down from her garrsion in Maryland just to help us Beta Test a new Escape Room in Herdon that may or may not have ties to the 501st... But she was not alone! Brett from Not Another Podcast? and his adorable wife Kathy came in to make sure we were properly equipped to escape... 
Then, because he is awesome at Escape Rooms, Justin from two of our episodes joined in as well to round out the group of solid thinkers as well as solid wisecrackers! Seriously, if you have an opportunity, try your hand at an Escape Room. They are a ton of fun. 
Better yet, if you are located in or near the DC Metro/Northern Virginia area, you absolutely have to check out Escape Room Herndon! https://www.escaperoomherndon.com
We plunged in to the room, loved it, felt nostalgic, squeed at every turn, and ultimately managed to escape. As a result, we talk about the the room (ambiguously spoiler free) with Omer. The man is brillaint in both the concept and the execution. 
Then, because Star Wars, we talk about the departures of two directors in favor of one director in the new Han Solo movie:https://www.theverge.com/2017/6/22/15844022/ron-howard-han-solo-movie-director-star-wars-lucasfilm
We also enjoyed a beer as a recommendation from the latest episode of NAP?:Anderson Valley Summer Solstice https://avbc.com/our-beers/summer-solstice/
Finally, Episode 75's G30 Question of The Week:Which Star Wars Stand Alone Movie Would You Like To See Next? 
(If you hear hiss in the background, we shoved 9 geeks into a room full of amazing... but also stressful situations... We needed AC. Sorry, not sorry. :P)
-Cheers!
