release date: 1/11/2023
genre: wilderness Youtube channel
viewing setting: streaming 1/13/25
synopsis: This Youtube channel shares videos of a woman roaming the wilderness and building, killing, cooking, and eating things.
impressions: This 32-minute episode is part 5 of the current adventure. Last time, she had pretty much finished the house, bed, table, walkway, fence, and fireplace but later found a snake in her bed in the middle of the night. Determined to solve that problem, she builds a basket and collects a bunch of dirt, then adds water to create mud...which is then used to seal all the gaps in the house's wall. Meanwhile, the animals - both dressed in their cold-weather coats - sit around and do nothing...but at least they stick together in their laziness. After the walls are sealed, she cuts up logs to make a door. During this process, an evil-looking red wasp makes an uncredited cameo at 23:44. Once the door is on and the house is finally secure from creepy-crawlies, she cleans up in a stream while the monkey plays in a pond. And then comes that magical time that the bulk of the fan base was waiting for...she strips and takes a quick (PG-rated) bath. And the dog and monkey sit there and watch. When that's over, she wraps up in a single giant green leaf and heads back to the house, followed by her pets. No dinner tonight, they just all go to bed...and a big, nasty-looking centipede makes its cameo appearance at 30:51. Fortunately, thanks to the new mud sealant, that thing can't get in.

acting: There's no acting; this is a woman (and her dog and monkey) doing stuff in the wilderness.
final word: Interesting bushcraft/survival web content.
