Joel is a unique and incredible survival expert and instructor. He grew up in South Africa and Tanzania and has spent a lot of time learning jungle survival skills from the Rama Indians in Nicaragua and tracking and hunting from the Maasai and Hadza tribal people of Tanzania. Recently, Joel was a contestant on season 7 of the History Channel's survival show, Alone. In this show, contestants have to survive completely on their own in the wilderness with only the aide of their 10 chosen survival items and a camera. Joel and I discuss the value of living a life in the woods, and what it takes to be truly alone.
