    Anybody watch this show? Gillespie’s deal is to film the week before the show airs. 52 new shows a year. The 2/22/25 episode was filmed in Longville. There was no snow and 15” of ice. I live 30 miles south and last week I got stuck in the snow and had to use an extension on my auger. Clearly this show may have been “new” to air, but it wasn’t shot last week. I hope this doesn’t mean John is having more health issues.

    I didnt see the show this week. Yes, John has had health issues over the years. Lots of heart related stuff. Hope he is doing OK. He is a little over the top, but its generally a good show with down to earth folks on it. I did watch the prior episode two weekends ago and that one seemed current because it was really cold.

    In the early years, didn’t he wear a jumpsuit with a huge Pabst logo on his chest?

    If Pabst is a sponsor, Charmin toilet paper would be the logical next sponsor considering how closely related the 2 are.

    And the Johnsonvilles !

    Probably contributed to the heart issues.

    I don’t like the show, never have. He seems as phony as a $3 bill to me. But I’m sure I like things others don’t….to each their own.

    I’ve had personal dealings with John. While not everyone’s cup of tea, you have to respect the way he pumps his sponsors. He also does work extremely hard to put a new show on every week. While his “I don’t know what I’m doing” schtick can get old after 30 years. He’s a pretty solid guy who worked his a$$ off to last as long as he has.

    As far as this particular show, I know in the past if it was taped earlier in the year or not that weeks fishing he usually discloses that.

    I don’t watch his show to often expect for the grassy narrow episode fishing muskies. We usually know a few of the spots he stops at.

    something tells me that if you’re buying PBRs, you probably don’t buy top tier TP like charmin. Probably more like single ply. jester

    I’m referring to a specific instance. Nothing to do with sponsors
