Summary

The dust hasn’t settled and Mark and Jim are on the horn with ALONE TV show champion Clay Hayes to get the full behind-the-scenes rundown of his survival experience in the wild, wild, wild Canadian bush. Unforgiving country, a grizzly-choked landscape that’s indifferent if you live or die, 10 minimalistic items, the skills Clay developed over a lifetime of seemingly preparing for this challenge, the thoughts in his head, and what he learned about himself and life as a whole – we cover it all in this unbelievably inciteful post-finale podcast. Tune in to hear all about Clay’s amazing journey, as he once again confirms why he just may be the coolest guy on the planet!
