just sent my application in, let's see how this goes

Just got an e-mail, I think I will defer and wait for the next casting of alone

Hi Kyle,
 
Thanks for submitting to Alone! As you know, we have ended casting for Season 2. We are not sure when we will pick back up for Season 3, but will certainly keep your application on file and will let everyone know once we start back up!
 
In the meantime, I read your application and wanted to see if you would be interested in another series we are currently casting! We’re developing an exciting and authentic new project that explores off-grid groups and/or families. They’ll be put to the ultimate test to see how long they can last together using their self-reliance skills. I attached the flyer with more information. If you think it's a good fit for you or someone you know, feel free to reach out to us! 
 
Thanks so much!
Natalie

I know your stance on this, but I would explore those other opportunities.   I think any exposure is good exposure, and if they'll let you promote your forum it's worth the shot.  Even if they misrepresent you as a whacko, with your newfound celebrity it would be quick and easy to make people realize the truth.

not really that, it's more because alone would be easier on us personally, from what they say they are looking for, they want an existing group to see how they would do starting from scratch, I would want my wife and family with me and there is no way we could uproot everyone with everything we have going on here with our business, animals, etc.

With alone, my wife, brother, dad and friends could handle everything that needed to be taken care of.

Also, I would consider alone more of a challenge and it's something new. I'm no Dick Proenneke, but the thought of building a self-sufficient homestead from scratch just doesn't interest me, it would be kind of like someone asking me to do a show on opening a restaurant. At 45 years old I am looking for an adventure, not something I have been doing already for the past decade.

Not sure if that makes any sense.

It completely does.  I just assumed you didn't want to do it because you were afraid of being misrepresented.  I think you've  said that in the past about Doomsday Preppers.
