  • Great Show But…

    It’s a great show when there is an actual episode,. To often they are “previews” that never see the light of day.

  • Where are the gatherers?

    Did is a well told telling of hunters history. The big absence is any attempt to explore the history of ‘gathering’. It makes the telling very imbalanced.
