The show was "Trailside: Make Your Own Adventure". It was an outdoor skills show. A lot along the lines of what I learned during Sierra Club's "Wilderness Basics Course"


I remember that show. He had Ron Woods on as one of his experts. Ron tricked Viehlman into eating some grubs just to see his face when he bit into them....
