Hunting History with Rinella

[ODB]

Happened to run across an ad for this. Interesting direction:

I'll check it out. I'm sure this will get tons of hate.

Looks interesting for sure, I’ve learned a lot from Steve’s podcast!

I first watched Steve on his original show, the wild within I think it was called, couple years later meateater showed up and I was like hey that’s the guy from that show.

He runs an ad for it before this morning's MeatEater podcast...it's not what I initially thought based on the name.

When I see Steve Rinella Hunting History I think the history of hunting...it's more "hunting for answers" to historical mysteries. He says there's an episode about DB Cooper, The Roanoke colony, La Salle's lost ship Le Griffon...stuff like that.

I would have liked it better if he would have done the show about historic hunters, like Leupold or Fred Bear.

His first show (travel channel I think) was his best work imo

Yeah at first I thought it would all have a hunting angle, but not really.

Frankly I’m surprised it took him this long to branch out again into something different.

With the way all things MeatEater exploded I don't think he had time for much else for a long time. I have no way of knowing, but it seems the company has grown and organized to a point that he can be as hands-off or hands-on as he wants to be rather than running the show all day every day.

If the show is what's described on this thread, it's been done by others a dozen times. Seems to be alot of those "solve the mystery" type shows. Maybe he thinks he's found a niche that's different.

Or it could end up........

I’ll give it watch. I like most of his shows and it combines two passions of mine, hunting and history. I’m actually surprised the history channel is doing a show on history that’s rare these days.

I’ve made this comment before, but Steve’s book American Buffalo was so good - it seems that everything he’s done since has been somewhat underwhelming.

I’ve also been a critic of the Meateater group and the direction they’ve gone, but I still try to find some redeeming qualities in their content and will check this show out. However, if this show features some of annoying people that Meateater has on their podcast - I don’t care how interesting the story is, because I’ll turn it off.

I’ll watch it for sure. At least the first one. I’m not afraid to admit I’m quite the fan of Meateater. Learned a lot from them over the years. Cool to see him head a new direction

Steves a well read intelligent guy. This is a cool direction, I'll watch it. I also like Meateater though.
