from Mythfits · host Pionaire Podcasting

The Survivorman joins Kari and Tory to set the record straight — and reveal what he did 15 minutes after that rejection. Plus, Les drops the unfiltered truth about Bear Grylls, why authenticity cost him a lucrative deal, and what happens when a network asks you to fake the whole thing.LINK TO OUR OTHER SPONSORS!https://linkin.bio/mythfits/Please leave a review and make sure you SUBSCRIBE!If you are interested in advertising on this podcast email [email protected] request Kari & Tory to be on your Podcast, Radio Show, or TV Show, reach out to [email protected] US:IG/TT: @mythfitspodcastYouTube:  @MythfitsPod 😎👕 Support the show - grab some MythFits gear:https://mythfitspodcast.comChapters0:00 Survival Basics1:57 Fire From Ice8:39 Clever Fire Hacks12:54 Les Stroud Joins In24:12 Why Survival Fascinates27:29 Filming Alone30:20 Rejecting Fake Survival35:32 Risky Online Challenges40:59 Real Survival PrioritiesThis podcast is for entertainment purposes only.
