It’s ok

It’s good for any body looking for adventure but uses clips of the show. Josh tends to use visual clues that show important details we can’t see that’s why it’s only 4 stars. If you’re done here I need to tell you about someone who has a crush on Josh even tho he looks like my 5th grade math teacher

This show is very interesting

I like Josh Gates he is funny I can see the tv show in. My mind sometimes you need imagination

Should be on History Channel

That title is not a complement. I listen to podcasts, this show needs to be watched if it is given any attention at all. Reminds me of some of the Ghost hunter shows. Learned nothing , this guy just wanders around and wastes people’s time with stupid questions. Just looked Josh gates. I realized he is the host I hated on Ghost Hunters.
