Billy Berger on Naked and Afraid?
sleek:
I really hope the show doesnt morph into one of those fake drama game show types, like Survivor....
bowtarist:
Dang, I was a little bit embarrassed at all the belly aching goin on. I'm sure it's tuff out there, but dang, use some of your primitive skills. How about a grass shaw or maybe a grass skirt. :o Sorry, but stop whinnin and start winnin, that chick is hot and seems pretty tuff too. Maybe that's how the network wants us to see it though, I wasn't there. I'm gonna keep watching though. dp

Caught the episode when it first aired. Realize that they edit these shows to get ratings. I have been in those swamps, and even with the best of equipment, it is no picnic. Traveling through all that snake infested country can test even the most stout of hearts. Good on You Billy for even trying that..Enjoyed the Article in this months magazine on Your first buck with Primitive Gear

Not to cast asparagus on the whole shindig, but why naked? Not a prude, but humanity has always worn clothes. Not always out of modesty, but for protection against the elements. Stinging Nettle and Poison Oak are great plant teachers in that aspect. I think the show is driving for a wee bit of sensationalism and sex appeal in the naked shtick.
On the other hand, I evicted the TV a long time ago so have not seen the show. So I can't really make an in formed judgement on it. But I tend to think there would be more seriousness if the people were at least clothed in the traditional grab of some distant time period of the region they're in for the show. That would be more authentic.
bubbles:
Agreed, dharma. It also kind of eliminates any winter/northern area - you'd be hard pressed toake it 21 hours in northern Manitoba in winter if you got dropped off naked.
