I have watched every episode and every show Josh and his crew have made. I love Josh's sense of humor and his extreme knowledge of all his travels. I had always wanted to be an archeological explorer but missed out on the opportunity. Watching his shows and learning about all the customs and artifacts and truths / myths fill my curiosity. I hope he and his crew can completely solve some of the unsolved cases ; especially his most favorite , Amelia Earhart.

I LOOOVVVEEE Josh Gates no matter what show he's doing! Expedition Unknown, Destination Truth or even just a interview with some other show OR radio station. He's always ready to try anything and usually does wind up in some seriously weird situiations (but they make the best clips for his behind the scenes shows)! No matter where, what or who he's exploring with, it's a guarantee that you'll enjoy watching because deep down... he's living the dream you never could. Plus he's a funny guy!! Fan4Life KPG

I absolutely love the sense of humor on this guy. I love how passionate he is at reaching his goals of digging up proof of the past... He really gets in there and goes places I would be way too scared of going, going way down into mines, climbing into small holes where nobody else would go, digs through some of the craziest stuff, he really show his love for what he does. It's a great show. I wouldn't want to watch if it ever had another host, Josh is awesome!
