Dear Campers,
It’s official! My new survival show will be launched very soon, so here are some details. My first appearance on TV teaching survival skills was in 1996. I know the production process well and have watched its steady decline from once factual programming to now farcical, dangerous nonsense, all controlled by network $hareholder$ at the viewers expense.
The profession of the survival instructor - at its core - is keeping people alive. While the content is serious, teaching in a “serious” manner can bore students, and bored students don’t learn and retain vital skills.
To my knowledge, you will soon be watching the only survival show on Earth that remains unmolested by corporate television executives, and therefore remains in a pure state of competence. It was created, produced, directed, and hosted by me. I have personally vetted my co-hosts, each of them bringing their own unique style of teaching to the show.
If you love the show, blame me. If you hate the show, blame me. Regardless, it offers you a solid alternative to the network nonsense by teaching real people real skills!
Ded Fred has agreed to announce details for how to watch the show in the next post.
With that, I leave you with the five tenets of the show: to educate and inspire people to become more self-reliant and confident in their lives, to mitigate peoples’ fear, real or imagined, to debunk dangerous, phony TV survival shows, to save peoples’ lives, and to make people laugh!
Stay tuned and stay safe! Cody
