“This is an adventure survival game show where we’re creating scenarios in a controlled environment and asking armchair survivalists to show what they’re really made of,” he said. “There are so many armchair survivalists … so let’s educate some of the people and re-create really interesting survivalist disaster environment — and see who’s all mouth and who’s all trousers.”
