About this episode

The episode explores significant events from the year 2000 through the perspectives of different individuals.

Brian has a new idea to do an episode about each year starting with the year 2000. So this week, we delve into a year that featured Y2K, a crazy Presidential election, and the release of Playstation 2 and learn how they guys experienced 2000 as a 3rd grader, a senior in high school, and an employee at a TV news station.
