Are you locked in for 2010 in the USA? I really hope so, otherwise I'm gonna have to get the DVD's or move to the UK to watch the shows. Since the announcement, has the Travel channel talked to you guys about the response from your fans they've gotten? Like I mentioned on Facebook, I can't describe how upset I was... and how betrayed I felt by that channel. Your show has a concept unlike anything else on tv... you don't just give us pleasant tours of each country and their cuisine, you throw cold hard reality in the face of the public. You make us realize how different things are in the world, you make us appreciate the things we have, and the BIGGEST thing, is that you make us all open our eyes, and keep an open mind. A lot of times we all get caught up in a certain point of view, you take that point of view and stomp it into the dirt, and say "OPEN YOUR EYES AND SEE THE WORLD". I will miss you on Monday nights. Last questions: Will you continue to run this blog? And do you have any further updates on your shows airing in the USA? Thanks.

I'm checking out some of the music groups you listed, great stuff. Many women now are actually eating their placentas after birth in order to help restore hormone levels. This actually has stopped postnatal depression and helps them recover faster after giving birth. When my wife had our first child, we donated her placenta so they could use the stem cells to help save lives (They can help patients with leukemia, lymphona and sickle cell anemia). This is becoming more common in the United States, which is a great thing! Thank you for answering my question! I’m checking out some of the music groups you listed, great stuff.
