Yea i saw the SA episonde, that was a one day thing that todd wanted to do it sounded like and after watching the aftershow he convinced them to do a show on it. Todds i think is a wanna be tv producer and pitching ideas to the producer and seeing if they bite so that he can have spin off shows.

Who bankrolled all this new equipment the Hoffmans are using? Maybe it was explained last episode and I missed it. The nice new Doosan loader the Dakota boys were using last year was conspicuous by its absence too.

A recent episode showed them pitching to a room of investors to get funding.
I believe Fred's loader was a lease last season. Maybe you'll see it again this season.

Yea if u have a dvr set to record new episodes you would have gotten the preshow that explained it. But basically they got some guy to get investors and they pictched their idea to them. It covered the new lease who and where it came from and the equiptment investor and how it got to canada.
Anyone watching Jungle gold? What happened last week to episode 2 went to episode 3 and just skipped 2? I forced the DVR to record the second in a repeat this weekend so i have 2 to watch!!
There is a new one coming on History this fall called "bamazon" or something. It looks like its in South america, i assume near the amazon. May not be just a gold show but did show them panning gold in the mud down there?

For the life of me, I cant figure out how using a gps to locate there claim can put them a mile off from where they are supposed to be. I think before I spent all that money clearing land and pushing dirt, I would at least want to know I was in the right place. They keep harping on the commercials where one group strikes it rich. I cant see where that group is ever going to be the Hoffmans. I'll probably watch again tonite just to see how much more Todd can screw things up.

On several other boards, the suposition is that Volvo has given, lent or leased at very favorable rates all the Hoffman's equipment.
I don't know if I buy that, because the people who buy and lease heavy equipment don't really seem like they would be influenced by a TV show, unlike people who may buy a Bosch router because Tommy Silva uses one
