Title: 4WD Touring Australia - Series 6 on YouTube (MySwag exclusive link)
Post by: Carlisle Rogers on July 02, 2018, 10:41:45 AM
Hey guys!
Along with a slot on Aurora this Thursday at 7pm and on Gem this Saturday at 8am, we're putting the full show up on YouTube each week so you can watch it whenever/ wherever you want.

As a special MySwag exclusive, here's the unlisted playlist for episode 1, which won't be properly live until this Thursday. I wanted to see what you guys reckon, and give you something back for all the support we've seen here over the years!

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgXpxJ0hcDl1aj9TEdbz80vbunIOT7lG_ (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgXpxJ0hcDl1aj9TEdbz80vbunIOT7lG_)

Enjoy!

Carlisle

Craig - thanks! We head to Limmen Bight in episode 3. I'd never been there. Cool spot...weird river. Without a high tide it's pretty nefarious. Did you catch much there? I found it hard work.
And thanks for the pics, mate. Always after good shots from trips beyond...

Yep we loved it there CarLisle, we fished down towards the sea in the three different rivers, did my first trip there in 1988 caught heaps of black jew and jacks and fingermark, just down the river on the bend, and second trip there in 1996 caught ship loads of banana prawns in the cast net used them for bait, grunter and jacks and Barra and black jew and reef fish from out the front around Beatrice Island, How long were you away for, and did you get that boat trailer home in one piece it looked very lite duty for that country, Craig

Ha! Many more repairs were made to that trailer! It's been welded in just about every state.

We only had a couple of days at Limmen...and no good tides to fish on, which always makes it hard. Still scored out at the mouth, but was hard yakka.

Hey Craig, a wee bit off topic but, have you had any luck with Cherabin as bait up in that area. When I had a bit off a fish in the Einasleigh River, years ago, that's all we used.

Yes that makes it hard you only had two days there, I had 6 weeks there in two trips, Yes I thought that would of happened to that trailer, Craig

Hi Steve, I have heard they are  great bait in the fresh, we fish the salt so I have never used them, Craig

i’ll take your word for it, i immediately lost interest in the show the moment the infomercial started....and obviously wasn’t alone in doing so. What can I say, I dislike watching that style of advertising, hence I rarely watch any of the outdoors type shows these days.

I agree Mal, there are only 2 (now) that i'll watch. Carlisle's and all for adventure. They are the most destination/explore shows on the go. The rest are Shite and that camper trailer lifestyle, that has to be a joke........ not even 1 min of content.......

I'm pretty much the same now.

I don't know about the rest of you... but I'm finding much better content now on Youtube.

Both Ronny and Andrew (4xoverland) do a heap of product reviews as well and they can sometimes be *very* brutally honest. (this is good thing)

thanks for that Rumpig... checking out The Road Chose Me now. Already watched the entire Alaska to South America run of Expedition Overland. Brilliant stuff.

I get that ads make you  money and money keeps the world going around but there are much more subtle ways to advertise

example talk about the benefits of a bar and have an ARB bar on the car.

We all love watching our hobbies and our hobbies cost money get the vendors to supply equipment use it and abuse it but don't turn it into an infomercial and us Hobbiest will see it in action and buy it an not feel like we are being sold to

I am smart but stupid ;D

It's your forum guys, and mine, and all of ours. We talk about what's near and dear. I'm here to be a part of the story, not the whole story.
In terms of the ad stuff...I get where you are coming from. It's no accident that we don't look like some of the other shows. And if I wear my heart on my sleeve sometimes (I actually really dig ARB, Toyota, Isuzu, MaxTrax, BFG, REDARC, etc) it's because I only use gear I'd buy. You'll never see me pushing Shit, and these days, it's pretty rare I'm pushing anything. Sometimes I need to let people know who is supporting me to get to do this stuff full time, but I'm doing that less and less these days, as you guys hate it and the sponsors are starting to understand that and let us do things the way we want.
Anyways...rant over! Thank you for watching the show! That's my dream, being out there as much as possible and trying to capture it in motion and images and words. Couldn't do it without you guys...you're my boss!

Thanks for posting this up, I also watched it at work! Could you report back once you know viewer numbers? I am interested to see what numbers you get on TV vs on-demand viewing (eg Tenplay, 9NOW, youtube).

I am finding these days its hard to watch things during the day having a small child who won't sit still so I have been watching more shows via on demand, it so much easier being able to watch when I want.

for what it's worth Carlisle,

Aurora didn't have it listed in the on screen guide (on Foxtel) and although I tried to record the show that was on at that time... I got nothing.

Gem, has Skippy scheduled for 8am. But it's 7.08am now so I guess we'll wait and see...

This is another reason I'm not really keen to keep going with the TV guys. They've tried to screw us around so much over the years, dropped listings, changed airing times to accommodate My Kitchen Rules reruns (I wish I was kidding) and charged an arm and a leg for something that nobody really wants any more, like endless ad breaks.
The more we have to spend just to get a slot, the less there is for quality cameras, camera operators, fuel, flights, all the other things that make it possible to make something worth watching...
Even when something's on TV, most people record it for later anyway. I'm just not convinced the TV networks aren't bullShitting about the viewership numbers anyway to justify selling ads themselves.
Anyway...thanks for checking it out, guys! Any feedback is always welcome here, or privately via message!
