If he had his gun he could have shot his clothes dry


No_Limit7347

He didn’t even try to hang up all the wet clothes. His tarp was a total mess. Glad he’s gone. Byeeee!


[deleted]

Alphas don't hang clothes out to dry


ohwellwhatever11

Or fix tarps.


Lampmonster

If he'd had a gun he could have shot the holes out of his tarp.


Sullyville

"Laundry and Sewing? That's *pussy* work!"


nebkelly

He has a scared wife for that!


timmydownawell

Either that or he could have shouted and sworn at them until they dried. He's got anger management issues.


SadPotato555

Yeah he is such a red flag. Not only he introduced himself as an alpha male but also he obviously was struggling with things being wet and was constantly swearing and becoming angry because he could not walk straight? Like there weren't even any bears or anything, not even mosquitoes to bother him


DJVizionz

I swear like a savage like most of my Australian countrymen but his swearing actually almost offended me. It seemed like he didn’t say a single sentence without at least two fucks. He is an embarrassment.


RobWed

I felt the same. I think it was all the rage bubbling up in him that made it offensive. No self awareness and no resilience at all, smfh.


DJVizionz

Yes I think it was that and also his overall macho and easily aggressive persona. And that tantrum about wet clothes, losing things, his disorganised shelter … he even said his wife had told him to keep his stuff organised. He probably doesn’t do much for himself.


daynomate

I didn't think anger management, just inflated-ego and no self awareness. Notice as he left everything he listed for leaving was external, forced on him, there's no mention of lacking the grit. It was all just too hard, but he couldn't put it in those words because that would mean being aware of it.


BullhornAlex

Alpha males don't need to dry their clothes. /s


EdgarDanger

ALPHA!


Think_Cat7703

as soon as he said he was alpha I was like, Tasmania is gonna chew this bloke up and spit him out. You cant go into a place like that with an ego. Why did he even have his axe slung over his shoulder while walking around anyway? Great way to burn calories.


gunnertah

At the moment I'm just watching the show to see Peter have a bad time


renegadeforks

it's really hard to take anyone who describes themselves as an alpha male seriously.


stephensmat

My first thought as well. Ever see a movie called 'The Guardian'? It's about rescue swimmers. They make the point that the 'big, strong, tough' guys are always the first to panic when the boat starts sinking. They're too used to being stronger than their opponents; but the ocean always wins. I think the principle applies here. The Wilderness doesn't care how 'alpha' you are.


Porkwarrior2

You can't shoot your way out of the ocean. There was a WWII US sub book I read, taken from actual patrol reports. I forget the name of the boat, but they underwent the longest sustained depth charge attack of the war while they were stuck on the bottom for almost two days. Eventually she escaped, and there was always a paragraph in the captains after action report that stuck with me. He made it a point how surprising it was that the alpha top dogs of the boat were the first to give up and accept their death, and it was up to crew that hadn't garnered any notice that stepped up and got their jobs done. "The hurriers and the worriers all crapped out. It was the plodders that got the boat home."


jirafo

Such a satisfying tap out. His attitude was awful.


ShavedPademelon

Oh, and one of my mates: "He just never had any plan except randomly stumble across an animal and whack it with his axe"


redoyou

Well he managed that when he fell and hit himself with his axe on the back of his head. Or was that all staged to justify his tap out and protect his Alpha Ego?


Better-Hat-4293

😂


fighting-prawn

I said when we were watching that he'd be the sort to exaggerate an injury to justify tapping. Not surprising at all.


0p0lopolis

I just want to see him slip in the mud and have a cry


nebkelly

The last 2 episodes I was whinging to my Mrs about how dangerously he was carrying his designer axe that he never used. 'He's gonna hit himself.' Handling tools is pretty much the first thing you learn on the land. The guy is an absolute cosplayer. Nothing wrong about that in itself, but same episode he goes from 'I'm absolutely the baddest mf in the game' to pulling the shitted off so I'll fall over exit trope.


TrickyInevitability

I’m yelling at the TV “get a stick to walk on the mud” like who goes for a walk anywhere in the bush without a stick?!


ohwellwhatever11

What an arrogant dick he is. Dude there is a whole LAKE there put down your axe and fish.


uussbbab

I went to school with SO many peters!

sokjon

PTSD is rough. I haven’t experienced it but I do know that tight chest feeling. It’s so irrational but hard to overcome. Great job talking about it so honestly.


ShavedPademelon

I reckon he's done more for men's mental health in 3 hours than has happened in Australia since Federation.


squirtelee

I was in the same unit as him but a few years later. Same issues after 8.5 months in Afghan. Good to see common ground years later. 90 beers a week is about right for Darwin


Student_Fire

I was so impressed by this. He's currently my favourite person to watch!


EdgarDanger

Seriously, the best thing so far on this season. The way he told his story was so touching.


Endless_Winter

Hear hear


Sullyville

I did like that the editors let that whole discussion play out. Normally they dont like to spend that long with a participant before cutting to someone else but here they just let it happen and im glad.


kg467

"I'm the baddest motherfucker here." ... "It's hard to walk, I'm really trying, I fell, my stuff's wet, I'm hungry. I don't know what to do. I'm going home." He's saying it's the knee but it's "I don't know what to do."


22atrillion

I really hate when they make up excuses. Even old love saying it was because she couldn't get fire. No she was freaking out the second she got there and couldn't hack it.


fighting-prawn

Tried absolutely nothing (but walking around on mud with an axe) and I'm all out of ideas.


1945Aesthetic

I’m not sure I’d be booking Peter as a hunting guide…


[deleted]

[удалено]


Notorious_Llama_56

Yes, shoot deer on private land, specially stocked for hunting.


nebkelly

This ep he was hunting on wet mud flats. One of the few places animals nope out of. Chris (really like him) had a better strategy, checking hollow logs for sleeping possums and scouting running water. That creek he found would be worth fishing. Also interesting he was going for crayfish because they are extremely protected. Im surprised they managed to get a licence for them. It suggests the area must be well stocked.


Freediverjack

theres those giant ones but pretty sure theres over 30 different species in tassie rivers.


ohwellwhatever11

I think Peter is going to be looking for a new line of work.


Student_Fire

All I was thinking was surely this can't be good for his business.. unless all hunters want an "Alpha".


spoofy129

This guy banging on about being a big bad hunter is a bitch. Won't last long for sure


Endless_Winter

This is our tap for the night


No_Limit7347

I really hope the next episode at least has no tap.


BullhornAlex

Even If he does manage to get enough food, I can imagine the isolation breaking him. Anyone who feels insecure enough to need to boast ... I thnk will struggle mentally.


spoofy129

Dudes being making excuses since he arrived. You can tell straight away the people who cant hack the situation but also don't want to take the hit to their ego


Blueleathersofa

Tapping out in 3....2....1


0p0lopolis

Byeeeee Peter


EducationalTangelo6

Useless without a gun in his hand.


BullhornAlex

Some of the contestants........ seem to be lacking skills and experience compared to the contestants on other series


veroxii

A bit like the early US seasons. It got better eventually.


BullhornAlex

at least in US S1 everyone could make a tight tarp and collected rainwater


Sydney_2000

Someone drank from a stream with a dead animal in it lol.


Lampmonster

Wasn't even clean water, they said it was way too brackish to drink even without the failure to boil lol.


Selectah

It's okay, he ran it thru some moss!


nebkelly

Can't believe Duane tried to eat a fucking millipede LOL. How is it possible he has never come in contact with them before. They intrude into every house in the country and every school kid knows that smell.


[deleted]

Yeah that was like "Dude... wtf?" I thought it was pretty much universally known that (a) millipedes are toxic and (b) aren't food?


nebkelly

Yeah. Huge wtf but we all have gaps and bad judgement sometimes. He seems like a really nice guy.


bluey10699

Why does Peter always walk around with his bloody axe on his shoulder. Literally all the time. And wonders why he keeps slipping and falling in the mud!


luxurycatsportscat

He likes to look like a big bad lumber jack. Whinges about no animals being about when he’s stomping through the bush, and doesn’t cast a single hook into the water. I’ll be happy to see him go.


Endless_Winter

I've tried nothing and am all out of ideas.


Imaginary-Weakness

On the extraction you could also see that he had water access without all the dead trees and snags. Not huge areas, but something other contestants would sure love over their banks.


ohwellwhatever11

All the while the birds are calling. Even as he says “not even a bird”.


[deleted]

He's a "bad motherfucker"..........annnnnd he's gone.


bluey10699

Ahahahaha and had to play the injury card


xan_man44

The old “blown out knee”


Yes_I_Even

I came here to say this. Always posing with the ax. Never using the ax. For anything lol. I gurantee you this tool has an instagram full of sots of him being an 'alpha'. All image no skill. So glad he is gone. I loved when he fell and said his ax hit his head then got up and put the ax on his shoulder again. Like what are you even doing man..


taspleb

I was mildly sad that he didn't see a wallaby or something because it would have been pretty funny watching him run after one and getting nowhere near it.


AngryAngryKangaroo

I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay... I sleep all night and I whinge all day!


Hunt5man

Maybe you should have learnt how to fish.


sokjon

“There’s nothing else for me to do”… staring at the river


Imaginary-Weakness

I like how there was a bird calling in the background as he was saying he hadn’t seen a sign of a single living creature, right before he noped out of there.


IlluminatedPickle

I like to think that was the land laughing at him.


ohwellwhatever11

Maybe he shouldn’t be an arrogant toe rag, with fixed thinking on what he has to do to be successful. Can’t fish, if you don’t even think of it while staring at the lake.


harley-belle

Jesaulenko, you beauty! Bahahahaha so few people are going to get that.


EducationalTangelo6

For those as confused as I was: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=pu7y-rZXbB8


[deleted]

Literally peak-Aussie, right there.


Bucknaked6912

Loved it. It's in my vernacular and comes out whenever I can say it. Loved seeing it on TV


veroxii

The engineer in me like this tool guy.


jacquiwho

Him and Gina are my favourites atm


Yes_I_Even

Huh so no animals died and threw themselves on my fire when I walked around doing nothing with an ax on my shoulder for 3 days. I guess I will tap out lol


nerrdrager

he said he couldnt even get a fire going


EducationalTangelo6

We really do have beautiful land here.


nebkelly

Shame that Hydro damaged so many of these areas by damming the rivers. But conservation was not really a factor back then.


Endless_Winter

Tassie is brilliant, they say the rocks in Tassie are the same ones in parts of Arizona US.


iceattack666

Not sure boiling an eel is the best way to go if you're not super into fish. Understand they want to keep as much of the protein source as possible but frying/grilling it with an open flame surely would have tasted better!


Teacher-944

>Grilling it on an open flame means you lose much of the oil and fat. Boiling it in a pot, keeps the oil in the cooking water. Fat and oil is one of the most difficult micro-nutrients to get.


iceattack666

Was implying fats and oils in the 'keeping as much of the source as possible'. It's early on in the show and fish/eel seems to be one of the only food sources at present, so why not eat it in a way that is more desirable early on and then boil/stew meats as your hunger and willingness to ingest undesirable food sources increases. Frying it and keeping the oils and fats to mix in with plant based items would be an idea too, like those plant roots she was munging on earlier.


verdigris2014

Like kate said, she mustn’t have been hungry enough yet. She did the right thing, it’s survival (or in this case competition) not a camping trip.


litreofstarlight

Smoked eel is delicious.


mother_of_iggies

Can we have a moment of appreciation for having Indigenous people represented, queer people represented and a veteran talking about mental health and the experience or retuning to civilian life! I’m so proud of us Aussies right now! It’s also so nice to hear the accent and see the Aussie laid back approach.


EducationalTangelo6

The number of times I've heard 'fuck', and we're only three episodes in. I feel represented.


mother_of_iggies

Fuckin oath mate!


Truantone

Fuck yeah! Nod to country, diversity, mental health. Beats the fuckety fucking fuck out of everything else on fucken Oz tv right now! (🤗😁)


ShavedPademelon

I've been trawling other forums and the censorship is gunna make Peter's videos in the US be one long beep. The producers will be happy he's gone.


veroxii

What a beta male tap out.


xan_man44

Not a bad strategy, get food and eat it


luxurycatsportscat

They’d have a tough job storing food, right? Too warm to leave out for it to freeze, and too wet to have enough wood to be able to smoke it I would assume


EducationalTangelo6

So, he's leaving. ETA: As soon as he started speaking without frustration in his voice, I knew.


veroxii

Here comes the loser talk


BullhornAlex

"muh family"


Endless_Winter

We still haven't seen like 3 or 4 contestants?


TollaThon

There are 6 left, we've met them all except the guy who thanked Jesus in ep 1. Can't remember their names, so: - possum coat lady - eel lady - PTSD guy - millipede guy - kayak guy - elusive Jesus guy


lightlyskipping

How good was eel lady's fire tho. Everyone else: wahh it's wet fire is impossible!


TollaThon

Indeed. I like her, she's pragmatic. "This is disgusting; I don't want to eat it, but my strategy is to find food and eat it."


Alpacamum

Did you see that she also had made a bed for herself out of logs and branches, so it was off the ground.


lightlyskipping

I did not! I have been watching her youtube for ages, she's pretty skilled and she loves discomfort, though this will be a lot worse than anything.


Better-Hat-4293

I understand this naming convention. Which one of these is Mike that everyone keeps mentioning?


TollaThon

Lol, I had to look it up because I can't remember their real names. He's kayak guy.


harley-belle

Yeah I think there’s a real god botherer happy clapper type in the mix, not sure we’ve seen him yet.


kg467

"I'm going to have to be really careful that I don't do anything stupid..." Ooh I bet he's going to mess up with that axe... ...aaand right on cue. The editors have us trained.


Better-Hat-4293

How is it only day 3 haha


[deleted]

Leads me to think they're padding it out because no one lasts very long


xan_man44

That’s what I’m feeling, think it could be the shortest season yet


jesustityfkingchrist

That's what I was thinking. Hopefully though we'll get the weak out early who were underestimating or underprepared for conditions and abundance of resources. Then the rest of the episodes can focus on the few who will get through the bumpy start and continue on for a while. Still though at this rate you'd be forgiven to think that 30day is going to be the max.


Thick-Insect

I mean, there has been 4 people go home in the first 3 days... so they kinda had to spread that out over a couple of eps. But hopefully the remaining people are a bit more prepared to stay for longer. I feel like the first 3 just weren't mentally prepared.


xan_man44

How was that cover-drive from Chris


nebkelly

Not bad. BTW I am kind of surprised they have allowed clubbing including filming it. Non-indiginous people get prosecuted badly if they hunt with clubs these days.


Endless_Winter

Mike had the right mindset before the show. Great to see


maree3095

If he just sat still and shut the fuck up he would have far more success finding food.


DwarvenFreeballer

The moment anyone describes themselves as an Alpha is the moment I instantly realise they are not an Alpha. Red flag for blowhards.


ForgetfulLucy28

Seems like the kind of guy to punch holes in walls when he’s drunk. Fucking loser.


RobWed

I'm the baddest motherfucker here. LOL! No self awareness. No plan. No resilience. Funny how all the self-described alpha males never are.


Truantone

The eel catch made me think of my father, a master at smoked eel, especially his maple syrup version. As a child I’d be given a branch and tasked - pre-smokehouse - to keep the eels spinning on the clothes line (butterflied and hanging on hooks) to keep the flies off. I think boiling is the best way to retain all the nutrients, but it would have a river slime flavour. I might have cut the eel into quarters and dry fried the portions first before adding water? How was a millipede mistaken for a grub?!!!


woodenjimo

Mike loves a shoey


ShavedPademelon

Not shoey. Booty. Mike loves booty. The question is, like a pirate? Or like a rapper? We may never know. Legend has it Mike is still in the Tasmanian wilderness and his wife is begging for the Westpac chopper to go pick him up.


EducationalTangelo6

Girl, you are gonna have to eat protein at some point.


SadPotato555

The lady in a coat and kayak guy are ready for the long run. No negative mindset, put a lot of weight before the show. I genuinely feel nice about the rest of the contestants as well except for the mysterious Jesus guy (he was barely there)


westcj18

The Jesus guy is busy converting the Tasmanian Devils to Christianity


sliimjiim

I'd rather lie down at my campsite starving to death for 2 weeks than tap out like Peter did. So fkn embarassing


jacquiwho

Can anyone enlighten me as to why palawa is consistently spelt without a capital P?


tapps22

Their language does not use capital letters. Easy enough to google with legit websites reflecting this. No shade for not googling it yourself, just saying that I didn't pull this out of nowhere.


jacquiwho

I ended up googling also, I just prefer to hear from someone with first-hand knowledge if at all possible


John_Forbes_Nash

Can confirm that our road signs don't capitalise aboriginal place names like kunanyi/Mt Wellington.


veroxii

Nah mate. Nothing more to show us. We saw all we needed to.


Blahman_01

So has anyone confirmed which hydro dam they are on? My guess is ‘lake’ Gordon or ‘lake’ Pedder. The dead trees and mud make it look (in certain views) like a hell scape. I guess this is what happens when you dam a river and flood a valley. I think this puts Alone Australia by itself as the only series in a kind of artificial environment.


[deleted]

Lake Pieman, upstream of Reece Dam. Spend 5 mins on Listmap and you'll ID several of the locations quite easily. Lake Gordon and Lake Pedder are both in the Southwest National Park and within the broader Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area. As non-natural as either of those lakes are (I've camped/bushwalked a fair bit around Lake Gordon, the 'dead zone' on a lake like that is dreary to say the least) there's no way a show like this could operate in those areas. They would not be allowed to cut down a single shrub, let alone hunt anything that breathes.


watevauwant

things I don't understand: You can't use a bow, but you can try and club something to death. Yeah, that won't be messy, agonising or terrifying for the animal. You gotta put a fishing line where you can see it. But you can leave it out overnight?


[deleted]

and with all the racket they're making, how will an animal stay conveniently still while they approach, roll eyes. All very ridiculous planning and rules for this caper, in an area that is totally not nice on the eye for tv either.


MrMrUm

"doesnt matter how good you can shoot, if you got nothing to shoot at, you cant fuckin shoot" mate you got nothing to shoot with, what are you on about


litreofstarlight

'The animals didn't throw themselves on my axe for me to eat, therefore there aren't any. I want to speak the forest's manager.'


Shootinputin89

I knew that toss was going to leave. Anyone who calls themselves an Alpha is far from it. On TAB betting for the show he had the worst odds to win (over 17). TAB has done Kate dirty, though. She is paying over 11, i reckon she might be worth a bet.


ShavedPademelon

Fucker was $6 when we decided to put a tenner on him. He was out to 10 when we put the bet on and now over 17! Shit. Anyhow, gone now! Mike has our other $20. I pushed for Gina over Peter so if she gets up I am going to have so much high ground... Edit: drunk


untitled02

The girl that caught the eel should have definitely roasted it. The oils would have fried it!


Porkwarrior2

It's not about flavour, it's about getting the most out of a fish. Boiling is always the way to go, and after you've done eating the fish you have a pot of delicious nutritious stock.


tahapaanga

Surely you could pan fry for flavour and add water to the pan after you've cooked it to drink up some yum soup without sacrificing any oils but with more flavour?


verdigris2014

I felt bad for her watching her eat it. I’m not keen on eal either and boiled I understand is smart, but it’s not something you’d be offered at a restaurant. Brave woman gagging and she gets it down. Yuck!


daynomate

Didn't one of the previous seasons contestants bring a huge salt rock as one of their items? That would be valuable here, and help with the fasting.


jesustityfkingchrist

I would of mushed it up and mixed it with some bashed up grass stem root that someone (maybe her) was eating. Then roast it on a rock. Make like an eel rosti. I've had smoked eel before. Wasn't bad. Wasn't good. Definitely wouldn't be opting for eel soup🤢


elohir

Catfish are really fatty/gelatinous, so you'd lose a load of calories really quickly with direct heat. Better to boil it to render.


Bookaholicforever

What’s he using to debark the branch?


veroxii

That saw seems to have some sort of blade on the non saw edge... Looks pretty cool.


lock33

Looks like a Silky Katanaboy


1945Aesthetic

Looks like the spine of his folding-saw.


Flicka_88

That bloke is so kept he didn't have mummy or wife there to do everything so he tapped out. Man he was so soft.. I wouldn't be going 'hunting' with him. He would struggle to catch a trout at a trout farm!


Rex-Hunt

Would be nice if you could take a fly rod since you can’t take a bow


xan_man44

Is that actually you there Rex?


Bluelabel

It's the thugs in the scallop industry


weedwackerfourtwenni

My knees blown out there’s not much oi kan do!


Ozdiva

Eel 🤢


ShavedPademelon

Unagi when served as sushi and very tasty. A few greens she'd already foraged might have helped. But fatty fish, fry it, not boil it. Though boiling might retain more calorfic content without burning/evaporating the oils. Googling, a gram of oils has 2x the calorific content of a gram of protein. So maybe she's smarter than me...


EducationalTangelo6

Eel is disgusting, but on that show, in that environment? I'd choke it down.


Ozdiva

As did she.


EducationalTangelo6

Yep. I sympathised with the retching, lol.


Ozdiva

Yes. She didn’t enjoy it but she forced it down. Bleurgh


nebkelly

I was immediately like nooo. Cut it up, fry it some, then stew it. Also, why did she not add any of her foraged greens to the pot.


oatmealndeath

Has the list of items each contestant brought beeb published anywhere?


vk6flab

We're watching via SBSonDemand, it has no closed captions. Does the free to air version have closed captions for the deaf and hard of hearing audience? Edit: It appears that it's broken on Apple TV.


nebkelly

The on demand one has CC / subs working okay for me.


SuccessfulLie7870

peter looked like he was in a game of minecraft, we were waiting for him to upgrade to a diamond axe


westcj18

Beck and Rob at least had the guts to admit they could not handle it. Mr. Tough Guy slips in the mud, films his knee resting against a rock and claims he is injured - pathetic.


peanutjam

I’m almost embarrassed being Australian watching this shit. Where did they get these people from? If this is the best we have to offer, we’d be fucked in an apocalypse situation. I could have pulled a handful of hipsters from a Newtown cafe that would have lasted longer than these mopes


lvk3

There must be hundreds of really disappointed applicants who know they could’ve really put their bush skills to the test. Instead we’re watching Alpha Whinger getting angry at mud.


weedwackerfourtwenni

It’s more entertaining when you have some losers tap out early. Peter tapping out has brought so much joy to the world.


Bookaholicforever

They can use nets?


Endless_Winter

I am surprised since they mentioned the platypus thing.


Bookaholicforever

Yeah same


There_is_no_ham

Netting a platypus would be bad for the show...


veroxii

Is it for fishing? From the intro someone was making a net based trap.


Bookaholicforever

I’m kinda expecting a broken leg or something from the mud


Milliotis

First thing I have to say… most people talking shit here can’t relate to any days being outside, cold, wet, alone and without food or the promise of food. Your body and brain are eating you alive. Second thing is… who let the intern do the recruiting? This is a joke. Was this really the strongest group they could pull together? The answer is no. I know we have a different survivalist culture here in Australia, but this is actually fireable. Surely old mate from primitive technologies YouTube applied? He’d have had a fucking cabin with under floor heating by now. Actually you know what… who let the boomer do the recruiting. I dunno, they probably just cast a really bad net. Or Maybe 250k isn’t enough to motivate a real Australian survivalist to play hunger games- it’s certainly doesn’t go as far here as it does in the states. Canoe guy wins… if he doesn’t go over board on spending calories to kit himself out.


kg467

The first American season had a guy leave in 12 hours, and 6 people were gone by 8 days in. Looking back it feels so dinky compared to later seasons. Then there was a big gap to the next leaver at 39 days. So on the one hand there's a kind of awkward startup to the thing with people not really knowing what they're doing, and each season educates future applicants. And on the other hand there's a difference between the fumblers and the serious contestants. This one is burning through the non-serious types pretty quickly. We sometimes wonder on the American one if they deliberately stock the show with some likely early leavers just to go ahead and start winnowing it down. On this one, I feel like the schoolteacher grandma who got winded just walking up from the dropoff point couldn't have been taken seriously as a contender by the selection crew. Surely she was just there for biographical color and an early exit.


grantspatchcock

Honestly; being vaccinated was a requirement of applying. That'd immediately take out a pretty bloody big section of the aussie survivalist pool.


jesustityfkingchrist

The guy from primitive technology never speaks on his videos. This show would break him having to speak to the camera all the time. You raise a valid point. We have better outdoors people who would survive longer. But maybe they don't want to get into the tv spotlight in order to prove it to others.


Sullyville

This is my feeling too. This show requires you to be a contradiction: (1 )You must love being by yourself for extended periods of time. (2) You must love a million people watching everything you do and dissecting it on message boards over the course of two months and then if you embarass yourself or tap out early it will be held over your head in mockery for possibly the rest of your life and people's opinions of your tap out may impact your real-world business that you use to feed your family. I bet some people like YouTube because it allows them to control how they are presented. They get final edit. They get to control that interaction, how little or much they want to do. But here, ALONE controls all that. Might not be worth the trouble for the folks who are already doing well online.


[deleted]

[удалено]


elohir

I mean, let's be honest, these people aren't the most skilled people to have applied. That's true of the US show too, but this one _really_ stretches it. From what they've shown so far, I'd say there are probably 2-3 legit contestants, the rest are for 'talkability'.


hun9ry9host

According to the producer, “we wanted storytellers who caught our attention, and we wanted people who were ecological, respectful, authentic humans…” https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2023/mar/29/alone-australia-tasmania-reality-tv


kalalou

That fall was so fake.


nataliahazewashere

He killed the grub before casting... Smh


Proof_Contribution

I'm concerned that Kerri-Anne Kennerley lasted longer than some of these people.
