GHOST HUNTERS

Josh Gates is continuing his search for the yeti on tonight's episode of "Expedition Unknown." Last week's season opener was so awesome, people are still talking about it. If you didn't see it, they are reshowing it tonight on TRAVEL CHANNEL before they show this second part episode.  Josh is accompanied on this trek by expert Adam Davies, a knowledgeable and likable companion. I'd actually like to see him be a regular sidekick - he needs someone to work with to get that conversation going back and forth on the discoveries. I have to say, tonight is a popcorn evening for sure!  

Tonight, our favorite show, "Expedition Unknown" with Josh Gates is beginning a new season with an awesome episode, "Hunt for the Yeti." Thank you, Travel Channel, for picking up Josh - we adore him!  See it at 9 pm EST/8 pm Central on Travel Channel. Here's a LINK to the preview Next Wednesday, they continue the search - so don't miss that! I'm looking forward to a new season of merriment and mystery, shivers and delight!  ** Tomorrow's post is The How-To's of Bonfire Season**

Damn! I sure love having Josh back doing what he does best - poking his cute nose into lots of mysteries and expeditions around the world. He is the real guy's Indiana Jones and every girls dream travel partner. Tonight, Josh is looking for the Khmer Empire in Cambodia and a lost relic. The beginning of this empire was 802 AD.  It had amazing industry and wealth. Now, Josh is going to see if he can find it and a relic from its past. "Expedition Unknown" tonight on Travel Channel.

July 10th opening episode:  First, at 8pm, Josh and team lead viewers on a chase into one of the world’s biggest caves in the jungles of Vietnam to search for Bigfoot and emerge with some of the most compelling evidence ever caught on camera!  Then, at the overwhelming request of fans, they’ll travel to Romania for a return visit to the haunted Hoia Bachu Forest - the site of their most terrifying investigation to date - and then explore the reportedly haunted Mayan ruins of Tikal in pursuit of a monster known as the Belize Goblin. Yes, you know that I'm going to be doing a whole bunch of photoshop-challenged pics of Josh in his situations for this coming season beginning Tuesday July 10th. Following the Antarctica season ender in Antarctica (one of my top fav episodes), it's hard to imagine where else Josh could go to impress us. Here's a list of possible awesome sites I'd like to see: The Baltic Sea UFO site underwater. I normally don't like the underwa...

( Another episode of my tween'ish I-gotta-mad-Beiber-crush-on-Josh-Gates Journal ) Tonight Josh is going to go to check out an abandoned mining town in Nambia and some kind of creepy monster! OMG! I don't know how he does it all! Some day, he'll have to settle down and start a family. I mean, he's totally awesome, so why not??? But, it's really important someone that smart and cute marries the right woman to make babies, right? LOL. He has a duty to better mankind with his totally adorable kids. That had me wondering, what would Josh and I's kids be like? I Photoshopped them, Josh. Won't our son and daughter be so cool? They're adorable! I'd be so proud to be their mama, Josh! (dreamy sigh) QUIZ: Josh ran into some physical obstacles on one of his adventures, was it... a. Got bit by fire ants and his hand swelled up. b. Got sick to his stomach and vomited a bunch. c. Fell off a rock face and injured his knee. d. Gashed his head and bled pretty na...

(Enjoy this installment of my tween-like Beiber-crush'ish journals about Josh Gates and his fantastic show, "Destination Truth" and always shown with an appropriate pic of Josh and his necklace in keeping with the episode. Oh, and don't miss the trick quiz question at the end.) Josh Gates Journal: March 22, 2011 Josh is looking for the Ucumar in Argentina, a Bigfoot/Yeti-like creature. They will be poking around an abandoned prison. He's sooooo brave! ( heart beating fast ) I wish I could send Josh a protective cape like a superhero. OMG! He'd be so cute in it! I guess his totally cool necklace will protect him. ( dreamy sigh ) He better not go to any beaches down there. Those women in bikinis in Argentina are beautiful. What if he falls in love? What if he marries a supermodel? What if they have kids??? OMG! I'd be totally devastated! ( deep breath ) Just in case, I looked ahead in the TV guide and it doesn't look like he stops to get married along th...

I do the tank top shots and reviews for Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files and I do the drinking game and music videos for Ghost Adventures, but I realized I haven't done justice to my very favorite TV show; Destination Truth. Well, this season, expect a post each day the show is on entitled “Josh Gates Journals.” There will be appropriate Josh adventurer picture with his trademark necklace and a humorous post taken from my own "fan journal" with a quiz question to stump you fans. I am encouraging folks that if they're watching it tonight, feel free to come on and comment while watching it. Like Lonely on a Friday Night, I will be here all evening watching it too. Warning: This is a way to let my tween alter ego express herself, completely tongue-in-cheek and obsessive. Just picture me playing with my pigtails as I take notes in my journal. Consider Josh a kind of Beiber of the paranormal world. Journal entry March 17, 2011 Josh is going to have a new adventure tonight...

( Okay, so my new thing with Josh is to put his head and necklace on other bodies and I suck at Photoshop so it makes it extra special and fun ) Yesterday, I was on a teleconference Q&A with Josh Gates from "Destination Truth" (my very favorite show). I am always impressed by this man. He is highly intelligent and compassionate, talented and curious. St. Patrick's Day from 7-11 pm there will be the shows first ever live episode coming from Ireland. The location is the site of supposed visual and auditory signs of a screaming banshee ( a female spirit who wails when someone in a family is about to die, a kind of creepy harbinger of death, if you will ). The investigation will be set up with some new equipment making it possible for us to follow the teams as they divide and conquer a huge castle, a walled garden and the forests beyond. Kris and Barry From GHI will also be there on site to evaluate evidence and render opinions in real time. Josh is extremely excited abou...

Tonight, new season of "Ghost Hunters" (yawn) Did I mention "Ghost Hunters" is starting ANOTHER season tonight? At this point, I think some viewers wouldn't mind watching them pick lint from their bellybuttons. Personally, they showed no growth or change in all those, what is it--7 seasons??? I say "off with their heads!" It's not entertaining and it's not even informative anymore. It's like taking Algebra for the fifth time, all I hear from the teacher when he speaks is "wah wah wah wah wah." All I hear when Steve explains the haunting to Tango is "wah wah wah wah wah." And, at the end of the episode during reveal, Jason will say for the umpteenth time " and things of that nature ." ( Josh's head on Indiana's body ) On the bright side, my favorite guilty pleasure, "Destination Truth" has a live episode kicking off its new season on the 17th of March looking for Banshees in Ireland--wahoo! God...

There is nothing my dear adorable Josh Gates won't do, no place he won't check out that might be haunted or stalked by some kind of cryptid. The adorable gang and perky Josh are going down into a crater in search of ghosts... Beware, dude, it's a volcano! Here's a short video to show you how I've set up the window at the apartment for Halloween. It's right at the front door and the lightning will flash on the dolls. I added Skittles to the mix ( mainly because he freaks me out if he gets to stare at me ).

Josh said that the Ghost Fleet part of this episode was his favorite. A first time ever underwater ghost investigation. Following "Destination Truth" is "Beast Legends" investigating the griffin (winged lion). Thanks SyFy!

His father was a world-traveler and deep-sea diver. His mother came from Great Britain. When his father would return from exotic places, he would come bearing gifts and stories. His mother shuttled the family to Europe to visit her family there. The world to a young Josh Gates was filled with one more interesting thing to see, hear, smell and dive into head-first. If you wonder how he came to be the adventurer he is, and the television equivalent to Indiana Jones, you have only to look at this upbringing and his impressive education, as well as his standing in the exclusive Explorer’s Club to understand that “Destination Truth” is perhaps more a title for his own life than for the television show. He began hosting because he was a regular guy people could identify with who loves to travel and ask questions. He wasn’t a monster hunter or paranormal investigator. We completely identify with him. On my telephone Q&A given through SyFy channel yesterday, I was able to listen to his int...
