Geeesammy Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 That's badass randy! Good job dude! Do they pay for this type of thing or is it a "well isn't on being tv enough?" Type thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otis Nice Posted May 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 Thanks all. Sorry I haven't replied. It's been a hectic weekend. Wedding, graduations, out of state memorial day trip, and death of an old friend. We were at my folks since I got off work Friday and I took my laptop just to stay up to date on CR but never got around to it then my wife forgot to bring it home so I had to download tapatalk on my phone. It's awful. I'll try to answer the questions on here anyway. Tomorrow I'll have my laptop and all will be right with the world again. Pooping in the desert: if you've ever crapped outside you know it's a majestic occurrence. I've dumped all over the Appalachian foothills and mountains but before January have never even seen a desert, let alone been dropped in the middle of one for 6 days without a single building to be seen for miles. We were over an hour outside of Tucson IIRC. 36 miles north of the border...and the evidence all around us proved that. I have an interesting story on that which actually came from one of my pooping expeditions. I'll talk more on that once I have my pc. Like anywhere, you find a nice, level spot with a great view and dig a hole. I went into it totally ready to use my backup pair of socks but we were afforded toilet paper. The show is pretty real as far as no behind the scenes luxury b.s. but I was grateful that t.p. was provided. Creek is seriously a great guy. His stories on this subject were quite amusing. Again, more later. Pay: I'll have to see what I'm allowed to say on this subject before airing. Had to sign a nondisclosure and a lot of it is tight lipped before the episode is shown. As for compensation I feel ok saying we were well taken care of. Flights were covered. First and last night's out (8 days total, 6 in this he desert filming) at Casino Del Sol Resort were covered. All meals from the time I left the morning to catch the plane until I arrived home were covered. We were paid. We were also given a nice amount of items from sponsors of the show. Again, I'll give more details after it airs. Thanks for the feedback and questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otis Nice Posted May 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 The desert was it like this? Finally on my laptop. I have no clue what this is from or why I watched it in its entirety. Not quite like that, but the mountain range looked similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, not COPS or Naked and Afraid (because if I were naked, everyone would be afraid). Literally the first thing I said in this thread.

Tractor Posted June 2, 2015 Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 That's pretty cool. I've seen the show, much better than watching naked and afraid. I've seen the naked and afraid guys run from small animals that the fat guys in the woods would have tackled and ate. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rustlestiltskin Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Tv resorted to putting out fat acceptance shows now What's next. gay/lesbian and afraid shows where they film them for a week in their daily life struggle? Glad you're cool with the show and are enjoying the air time/money/expenses etc though. I could see me n me mates having a few pints down at the pub watching this show, pointing at the screen n avin a giggle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I give him props for putting himself out there. Who cares if he is fat if he is cool with it? Obviously he is doing something about it... I bet this show is 100000 times better than one about you and your super cool professional racket ball lifestyle. -Marc PS - my friends and I DO laugh at and point at the hardcore racket ball players.

Thanks Marc, but I've ignored PP's petty rants long ago. It's all good. I don't care what he or anyone else thinks. I'm not ashamed of who I am. I can hike to the top of Mt. LeConte (5.2 miles, ~2,700 ft elevation IIRC) and back down. I can hike all over the woods to hunt. I can run and play with my son. I can play ball with friends all day long. If I still lost sleep over what others thought of me I wouldn't have applied for the show and would've missed an incredible experience. I would be holed up in my cabin never seeing or doing anything. As it is I kayak with friends and do all kinds of things. See? I'm perfectly happy. My happiness isn't based on making 100% of the people on this planet accepting of me. If he chooses to continually judge and berate people on outward appearances that's his prerogative. He has the freedom and right to do so in this country.
