He is a stoner you know? Watch him all the time and travel channel. He has had a bit of health problems though.

yea he is a stoner. doesn't toke during the week anymore though because he writes books. hes also a former coke/smack addict. hes got his act together though. just needs to cut down on the booze and quit smoking tobacco.

I think I've seen every episode by now, really like it. Some eps are brilliant, the Indonesia and Singapore ones comes to mind.

They did one episode in my country however which I was dissapointed by

I think you can notice he's kind of a smoker by watching this show also, always some comment if someone is smoking nearby or "this would be excellent when really stoned"

Will have to check this out, food/travel shows can be really awesome. Its so much more interesting than a regular cooking show when the host explores around a bit, hangs out with the locals, goes fishing with them, and THEN shows you how to cook.

I recently watched the first (short) season of Jamie Oliver's new show, its called 'Jamie Does'. Another one to check out. I liked the Greece episode especially.

yea he doesn't cook on the show. he travels to one country each show and travels around the country drinking and eating local cuisine and doing stuff. he is a chef though so hes obviously pretty knowledgeable about what hes eating usually. hes good with words/describing the tastes too.
