Not A Joke: President Obama To Appear On NBC Reality Show

He’s appeared between two ferns with a comedian, he’s been interviewed by a woman known for swimming in a bathtub full of milk and Fruit Loops, but there is one area of pop culture President Barack Obama has yet to crack: reality TV. That is about to change.

As he hops on Air Force One to head up to Alaska to draw attention to his climate change agenda, the president will make a side trip to appear on the NBC reality show “Running Wild with Bear Grylls.”

Entertainment Weekly reports:

According to NBC: “Obama will meet with Grylls while visiting Alaska to observe the effects of climate change on the area. The two will then come together in the Alaskan Wilderness. President Obama will become the first U.S. president to receive a crash course in survival techniques from Bear Grylls. The visit will be taped and aired on NBC later this year.”

The episode will focus on highlighting the alleged effects of climate change on the wilderness in Alaska.

Barack Obama will be the first U.S. president to appear on a reality TV show.

I wondered why I’d never heard of this show or this guy, as I like must reality shows set in Alaska.

Then I saw it was on NBC and that explains it as I haven’t watched anything on that network for probably 15 years.

Nevertheless, I can already predict the outcome:

I heavily edited show that makes Obama look “cool” and maybe even a bit rugged.

Followed by some interviews with the host where he says something like, “I went into this not knowing what to expect and, you know, the President really impressed me.”

One can only hope that some outtakes are leaked that show the reality of it.

Perhaps like Bear Grylls’ show they will pretend to be out in the woods.

Unless it is junior jeopardy, like for 5 to 9 years old, he would be out of his element and perhaps even there over matched without a tele prompter

I haven't watched the libtard channels in awhile either but I happened to watch a show last night on NBC waiting for the football game to come on. It was an all-black show and they couldn't wait to put a reference to blacklivesmatter and all libtard narrative that went along with it.

These people at these networks don't even try to hide their libtard PC madness anymore. I immediately turned the channel and waited to switch back when the game come on.

Bear's show, Man vs Wild, aired on Discovery channel, but you can watch it YouTube. He's best known for eating something grotesque in the wild and making horrific faces, like worms and bear scat.

Bear has had several shows since then but none of them have been successful.

Another pretty good show on YouTube is Man Tracker which was about 2 men on horseback trying to catch 2 men on foot which originally aired on NatGeo.
