CodeBar Live Show 14 - Polybius the Man, the Cipher, the Urban Legend.
Welcome everyone to the second season of ‘Live from the CodeBar’ recorded from the code themed bar of Fenwood Manor. I am your guide on this adventure, Rob. For this Second Season the CodeBar is pleased to announce a new partnership with the website Area’s Grey. Areas Grey is a travel blog for treasure hunters that features tips and reviews, treasure posts, a forum, dedicated research and hosted treasure hunts!
After a few months off to reset and refresh, I am pleased to announce that this season is going to be bigger and better than season one with more interviews with treasure hunt creators, more shows on codes and ciphers as well as a lot more amazing stories and shows.
This show is all about Polybius, the Man, the Cipher and the Urban Legend. From the earliest days of man codes and ciphers have been used to communicate important information over long distances safely. The Polybius Checkerboard/cipher/square is one of the earliest ciphers used to make sure information is only read by the person it was intended for. But who was Polybius the man and what was the Urban legend that was spawned in the Pacific Northwest in the 90’s that used his name! Listen in and I will give you a taste, and perhaps, make you think of Polybius in a different way.
