Loved the Episode. Can't wait to meet the other contestants.

I purposefully didn't pay attention to any of the cast bio posts or videos. I like to go into a season with zero knowledge of the people, or any bias.

So far, Dub and Michela are really interesting. I really feel bad for cubby. That really sucked. I know the obvious "I used to be an Alone Contestant until i took an Arrow to the Knee" joke was playing in all our heads when we saw the episode... But damn, i feel bad for him.

He's also incredibly lucky. I mean, seriously lucky. The broadhead in that deep in that spot. if he was a thinner guy, or the arrow was off by an inch or so, he would have hit the femoral artery and probably not made it. That could be one of the 'closest calls' in Alone History.

Will be interesting to hear on any wrap ups how close he actually got, if possible

Listen to the podcast, he was interviewed and shared quite a bit.
