Hopefully they eventually put it up on their youtube account.

Yeah, the host is kind of a kook. But it's always good to see anything Baja related.

It's on YouTube now. A unique view of La Bufadora. (Kayaks and Kumiai)

The guy is really a bubble off plumb. I saw an episode where his was at Melling Ranch shooting a pistol at bottle on a fence that had a house just to
the left.

Watched it yesterday, as he was at San Quintin's Old Mill Restaurant... then went to the oyster farm (hoped to see Ron/ Baja Gringo)... then went to
La Lobera, and the road was washed out so he walked a mile to see the abalone/ lobster/ gooey duck farm and sea lion crater... with a finish at La
Bufadora (again).
I think Jorge is trying to be Mexico's Huell Howser?

The host is a geeky dork. The show relies too much on cheesy drone video. Many of the shows have very poor content, they show much video that should
have been cut in edit. 5 out of 10 jr high school film students could do better. kpbs must be desperate to keep buying this stuff. yes, kpbs is
depsperate, they long ago dropped their good content on weeknight evenings to fill air time with the cheapest shows they could find. san diego sadly
does not support kpbs sufficiently that kpbs can buy good content.

Not one drone copter used in yesterday's show... and I think it is the only PBS show I look at (and then only some of his episodes because they are
about Baja). I bet San Diego is one of the top supported pbs channels... I see the license plate frames all over... Maybe they should run a couple of
commercials to pay for content instead of spending hours begging for donations (which has got to get nearly 0 viewers)? Being government run, all the
millions they get from taxpayers must be seriously wasted?

Those 4th graders sure look a bit older than 9-year-olds! The subject matter must age them rapidly!
