Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie just got married. Facebook is the largest social media platform. Celebrities everywhere are doing the Ice Bucket Challenge, and somewhere in New York City, Lisa and David Spira have just written their first review about a new activity called escape rooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1017\" height=\"570\" data-attachment-id=\"151174\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/hero-repod-s8e6-rea-10-yr-anniversary-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Hero-REPOD-S8E6-REA-10-YR-anniversary-2.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1017,570\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Hero REPOD S8E6 REA 10 YR anniversary 2\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Hero-REPOD-S8E6-REA-10-YR-anniversary-2.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Hero-REPOD-S8E6-REA-10-YR-anniversary-2.jpg\" alt=\"hero image for repod season 8, episode 6. title reads &quot;lisa spira, room escape artist&quot;. man with short brown hair and goatee, wearing glasses, looking off to the side. center is a woman with blonde curly hair and glasses, smiling. she is wearing a necklace with a pendant shaped like a key. to the right is an asian woman, smiling, in a safari outfit, holding a machete over her shoulder.\" class=\"wp-image-151174\" srcset=\"https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Hero-REPOD-S8E6-REA-10-YR-anniversary-2.jpg 1017w, https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Hero-REPOD-S8E6-REA-10-YR-anniversary-2-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Hero-REPOD-S8E6-REA-10-YR-anniversary-2-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Hero-REPOD-S8E6-REA-10-YR-anniversary-2-768x430.jpg 768w, https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Hero-REPOD-S8E6-REA-10-YR-anniversary-2-600x336.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1017px) 100vw, 1017px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s hard to believe that it\u2019s already been ten years since Room Escape Artist started covering escape rooms. A decade is a long time to be doing anything, especially when it comes to writing about something many considered a fad. In this episode, I sit down with David and Lisa Spira, who are partners in both life and business, to take a look back over ten years of Room Escape Artist and talk about how it has grown up alongside the escape room industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-jetpack-image-compare\"><div class=\"juxtapose\" data-mode=\"horizontal\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"151112\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/roomescapeartist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/lisa-david-recon-la-close-up.jpg?ssl=1\" alt=\"woman with blonde curly hair and glasses, smiling, in a cream color coat. next to her is a man with short brown hair and goatee, wearing glasses, smiling.

Lisa talks about the sobering realization that people were making business decisions based on their reviews. This was one of the first turning points where they realized that they needed to take this fun blog of escape room reviews a whole lot more seriously.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-attachment-id=\"148294\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/david-lisa-recon-la-stage\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/David-Lisa-RECON-LA-Stage.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1200,900\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"David-Lisa-RECON-LA-Stage\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/David-Lisa-RECON-LA-Stage-1024x768.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/David-Lisa-RECON-LA-Stage-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"David and Lisa on-stage at RECON taking a selfie of a very full audience.\" class=\"wp-image-148294\" srcset=\"https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/David-Lisa-RECON-LA-Stage-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/David-Lisa-RECON-LA-Stage-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/David-Lisa-RECON-LA-Stage-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/David-Lisa-RECON-LA-Stage-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/David-Lisa-RECON-LA-Stage.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Lisa and David Spira on stage during RECON Los Angeles 24<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For me personally, one of the greatest things to arise is the wonderful community that sprung up around Room Escape Artist and all their productions. From the lovely people who participate in the <a href=\"https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/tour\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Escape Room Tours<\/a>, the interesting discussions in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/roomescapeartist\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Patreon<\/a> Discord, and the joyous learning opportunities of <a href=\"https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/recon-reality-escape-convention\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RECON<\/a>, David and Lisa have brought together a community of like-minded people who all love the same thing. There is magic here for everyone involved, and I\u2019m really looking forward to seeing ten more years of Room Escape Artist.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"thank-you-to-our-sponsors\">Thank You to Our Sponsors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We are immensely grateful to our sponsors this season: Morty App, Buzzshot, and COGS.

We strive to grow the community of amazing people who love solving the puzzles together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To that end, REA produces the leading industry event&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.realityescapecon.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RECON<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/tour\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Escape Immerse Explore Tours<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>David conceived of Room Escape Artist because he saw the potential of this new entertainment medium back in 2014. From the start, he applied his professional skills as a digital experience designer to the burgeoning industry of escape rooms. David is full of ideas: from in-depth research pieces to new content types\u2026 like&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/category\/culture\/animals-solving-puzzles\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cute animals solving puzzles<\/a>. He is always pushing REA to try new things, take risks, and be something more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether she is editing REA\u2019s content, leading the Hivemind, or wrangling the logistics for RECON or the Escape, Immerse, Explore Tours, Lisa is the reason that everything runs like clockwork. As a linguist and data expert, Lisa also leads our&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/roomescapeartist.com\/category\/business\/industry-report\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Industry Data<\/a>&nbsp;efforts and is responsible for our annual Industry Reports. Lisa is the heart of REA and also bakes all of our escakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"support-repod\">Support REPOD<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a
