  • Podcast #8 “Desert Dave” Halladay
    Consultant on films such as Castaway and TV series such as Survivorman, David Halladay is an unsung hero. Essentially unknown to the general public he is a legend in the world of survival skills. Not content to stick with the more simple subjects of fire starting and flint bladed knife making, David uses every outdoor skill oriented opportunity to fall right back into the world of philosophy and spiritual connectedness to nature.
    Music Credits:
    Jeremiah Johnson; Adapted by Les Stroud
    Directed By Les Stroud
    Starring Les Stroud, David Holladay

    This was an AWESOME guest. I could listen to him talk for days..... Thank You Les for having this gentleman on.
    This fellow and Larry Kinsella are two of the most interesting guys I have ever listened to. If any of you don't know who Mr Kinsella is....look him up. He's an experimental archaeologist from Southern Illinois. Does a lot work on native skills. He's definitely worth a watch here on UA-cam.

    Oh I remember Mr. Halladay! "Desert Dave" if I recall correctly. He was a local adviser on the Sonoran Dessert episode. Looking forward to watching this episode!

    Love the commentary starting at 6:35 about contrasting the placidity and more limited stimuli of native cultures vs (Dave used perfect description here in my view) "modern insanity". It can definitely feel like sensory overload moving through a modern urban area. That's why I feel like there are many many great concepts and advantages to modern urban communities, but for my taste, I'd prefer to live more remotely and connected to nature, and visit the city infrequently, simply for a change of scenery. Everyone has a different desire (and tolerance level!) for wall-to-wall people and stimuli; to each their own!

    I watched a video with Dave Holladay at one of those big gatherings that were done every year. He asked everyone to close their eyes. He then talked a little and then asked them all, without opening their eyes to point north. Out of more than a dozen, only one was correct. It showed me that everyone was only wanting to be given entertainment, not really learn something. I'm still amazed by this man, and will always do so.. Just amazing. I am becoming wordy again, sorry, Dave, with very little, has impressed me in a way that I really can't explain. ;-)
    Tuesday afternoon, the trees are drawing me near, got to find out why, those gentile voices i hear say it all with a sigh. Additionally; Deep inside the forest there's a door that opens to another world,....... take me home.
