Peter Santanello’s videos are usually really enjoyable and pleasant. He has a calm, respectful demeanor and he just goes to random places you usually don’t think about and just kind of shoots the shit with people. He did a couple videos a while back where he went to a couple of native reservations in like one of the Dakotas, I think, and they were an intensely interesting look into that life and culture.
His titles can feel kind of click-baity sometimes and I don’t always agree with his take on things, but I find him a really likeable and honest-seeming guy.
Wasn’t there a Vice series like way back in the day where they’d go spend time with people in remote locations and just see how they lived? Maybe I’m imagining it and it was just about drugs. But, I think that was a thing because I remember thinking it was super interesting.
Edit: so either my app is showing comment threads oddly, or he edited his comment, making my reply completely nonsensical. Originally, he said the video was scammy bullshit, and that he knew it for “two simple reasons.” His 1st was that no one living like that would actually jump on a horse from the rear, and the second was that no one ever sleeps over animals because they’d die of methane poisoning. I guess he couldn’t argue my reply so just changed his narrative instead.
End edit.
Where is the Lemmy version of /r/confidentlyincorrect? People have kept livestock on the first floor of their homes for thousands of years; the heat from the animals helped to keep them warm, and it kept the livestock safe from thieves. And no one sleeping above livestock is going to die of cow farts. Bless your heart.
This was such an enjoyable look into someone’s life.

The Abandoned series visited some remote locations.
