Aussie Dreamlivers Alaska
Feb 14^th, 2021 at 8:19pm

One of the best Travel shows I've seen in decades.
Raw and natural as can be.
Takes me back to the honest 'common person' style of the Leyland Bros.

3 Aussies travelling, lets say 'Road Trippin' around Alaska and being nothing more than a 'Traveller' than a professional media styled 'personality' which, as you can see is all over TV these days.
No 'pre-set' interviews. No edited 'angles' - just raw!
These 'Aussies' also shy away from 'acting' as Aussie as much as possible. They are just themselves 'from Australia' and that's about it, as they delve into Alaskan life.

Very entertaining, very insightful (from the Alaskan point of view) - from them running out of gas just 5m away from a Gas Station with 'Empty' on their pumps too. Grin

All real, all raw and definitely not 'FAKE'.

Besides the Leyland Bros, only Monty Python's Michael Pallin managed such realism. Everyone esle has turned their 'Travel Programs' into pre-orchestrated 'Tourism Adverts' with various 'novelty' personalities trying to sell themselves and their program.

These Aussie guys show us an Alaska that the Tourism Advertisement Holiday Programs do not.

Best Travel Show I've seen in years. (7mate)

Hammer said "Deliverance" and that movie was filmed in Georgia, USA way back so I assumed he meant the State of Georgia and not the Republic of Georgia ..

Interesting bit of trivia. The crackers were played by Pecker, Smith and Aussie. True story.
