Brian and Van recount their earliest encounters with Hidden Temple, while Spencer describes his experience as a newcomer adult. The guys try to figure out if Kirk Fogg actually cares about being the host of this television show, offer their opinions on Olmec’s voice, and appreciate the camaraderie of the kid contestants.
There’s even plenty of Medusa material in case you find yourself in the mood for mythology!
