  • Used to be okay, now not.

    At first, the pod used to be okay, but not now. The guy talks over his guests constantly and due to recent information, puts out mis-information.

Q: What did the gear look like on that trip?

As soon as I hear that bold bugle, I usually try to get at least three really good responses out of him before I go because I'm really trying to pinpoint right where he is.

Upgrade binoculars first, as they are more frequently used and will provide better overall utility.
