One more article about Kyle mentions that he's a game show veteran.

“Millionaire” was not his first game show. He was on "Jeopardy" 22 years ago.
“I didn’t do as well there,” Barrett recalled. “But my wife says I was less nervous this time (on Millionaire).”
This latest stint on “Millionaire” was DVR’d and will likely be burned to back-up discs and placed next to the old VHS tape from his "Jeopardy" appearance, he said.
Better back up that VHS to DVD, while you're at it, Kyle!
In the three months since he filmed the show, Barrett faithfully complied with the show’s secrecy clause, telling no one—not even his wife Meg, who works as a nurse at Newport Hospital, or teen sons Taylor or Drew, a graduate and current student of Middletown High School, respectively.
Being on “Millionaire” was fun, he said.
As for keeping such a secret that long?
“That was not so fun,” said Barrett, whose family spends quality time together frequently, as evidenced in part by the nearly 50 board games they play regularly at home and their decision to quietly watch and enjoy the episodes together over pizza—just the four of them.
This is something we commonly hear about. I wonder if this policy will remain in effect for those who aren't fortunate enough to participate in the Tyson promo gimmick they introduced on Friday's show?
