Down To Watch

Down to Watch rides West this week with a couple of episodes of American Primeval! Dan and Raul watched the first two eps of the Netflix series set in the Manifest Destiny days of America, as a woman and her son race between camps and forts in an attempt to catch up to the family's patriarch (or is he?). After their last shot at a guide out of Fort Bridger, a mountain man raised by natives who turns them down (or does he?), Sara puts her "faith" in some Mormon settlers heading to their Utah settlement. That plan goes South rather than West when a group of natives (or are they?) absolutely massacre the travel party. The mysterious mountain man saves the pair of travelers but a bunch of plots are launched as various groups seek fortune, lost family, and freedom in the Wild West. Does this new look into American expansion amaze and entertain? Your intrepid pod hosts know the answer (or do they?)!
