View this post on Instagram Multiple communities across the province are featured in a new documentary-style series available now on streaming platforms. Finding Nowhere is an eight-episode adventure series focuses on three cousins – Joel Primus, Ryan Primus and Seth Steward – who were all born in Prince George but grew up in different parts of B.C. – discovering small-town life, learning rewilding skills and experiencing the great outdoors in their home province. ”Finding Nowhere…blends rewilding, food, travel, conservation, and humour,” a statement from Joel
reads. “At its heart, it’s a story about family, reconnection, and what can be gained by slowing down and living closer to the land. With its mix of rugged landscapes, honest storytelling, and family dynamics, Finding Nowhere offers a fresh take on adventure television celebrating British Columbia and the people who call it home.” Finding Nowhere features local residents who live and work close to the land, sharing the knowledge they have accumulated over generations. In addition to Agassiz-Harrison, the series features Chlliwack, Prince George,
Quesnel, Williams Lake, Horsefly, Dawson Creek, McLeod Lake, Ucluelet and Parksville. The showaims to showcase lived experience of the cousins and those featured in the series as they explore rather than focusing on debate. “Rather than telling viewers what to think, Finding Nowhere invites them into the learning process,” Joel stated. Joel might look familiar from other media projects. He appeared on Dragon’s Den before building his successful underwear company, Naked Underwear. Joel also recently completed his first documentaries, Raising Global Citizens and Colombia. Ryan
works as a stone mason in northern B.C., developing rewilding and practical skills, including hunting and foraging. Seth is a director of photography and editor, working on a variety of media projects in the Cariboo.

So wait is this like a cooking show or what?
I heard about this on Instagram and thought it was just gonna be like one episode lol. Rewilding, hunting, foraging… sounds kinda cool but also kinda weird to watch on TV?
Dragon’s Den guy?? Underwear guy?? I guess people can rebrand into documentaries now. Also if they’re “not focusing on debate” then why do I feel like it’s gonna be political somehow? Prince George to like everywhere in BC sounds like an ad for British Columbia tourism.
I don’t get why they keep saying “conservation” like it’s a new idea, wasn’t that just… nature? Either way I’m glad they’re showing small towns. But hunting and foraging on a streaming series feels like it could go either way, like are they teaching responsibly or just showing “look what we can do” stuff. Also Agassiz-Harrison?? how many places can one documentary cover before it’s not really about the cousins anymore
