ALONE FROZEN Episode 4 Recap [Crying Over Our Food/Wilderness Cooking Tips] 

That sweater is genius! As an avid knitter/spinner myself, it is TOTALLY a survival skill. Yarn, cordage and heavy rope are all twisted using the same principles. I love your sense of humor about the sweater too!

I think i'm officially crushing on Woniya. What a woman! one of a kind

oooh the squirrel in the background, just as you are talking about the blessing of getting that first hare, seems like a poetic coincidence.

I love how you emphasize that skills that are considered traditionally feminine are so so important for survival. Can't tell you how capable I feel whenever fix my own clothing or improvise a tasty and nutritious meal from leftovers. Would love to hear more about nutrition considerations.

I love the sweater and the jacket. You are so talented! Everyone out there is super resourceful. So impressive!

I’ve always heard those birds called camp robbers, my grandfather told me as a kid out in hunting camp they was the sole of dead loggers and always enjoyed watching them in camp! I’ve never seen that kind of trap before and found it very interesting.I’ve followed Clay on RU-vid for a long time and another great guy named Ryan at hunt primitive and have always loved bows since I was a young boy. I’ve harvested a white tail doe and a bear with a homemade bow and definitely understand what you are saying about homemade tackle, definitely rewarding. I made another bow this year that I’ll be hunting with this winter! Really love the show and your review videos after words thanks for the videos and great content

TRUST IS A SURVIVAL SKILL!

Great review. So much intel for surviving. Always wondered about women's periods during their isolation. I don't think they EVER mentioned it on the regular episodes of Alone. Thanks again for all your knowledgeable input! Peace.

... Your skills and knowledge boggles my mind ...

Woniya, we like all of you, you’re our more favorite since we get to hear you and get to know you more than some others. It’s so tough out there, I’m afraid nobody can last but sure hope you and/or others can share. I hope this gives you what you need so you don’t have to punish yourself like being out there alone does. We enjoy the show but I never realized the physical harm this can do to your body. Stay strong, keep your great sense of humor.

You’re so good on camera I’m such a fan and think you need your own show

Your in depth recaps are just as enthralling as watching the actual episode. Your knowledge and explanations add layers of depth to the viewer's experience. I tuned in to the History Channel tonight to watch Episode 5, which I think was titled "Outfoxed", and instead the episode you recapped here aired again. I am confused, and maybe losing my marbles? Ha ha! Anyway, thanks for doing all the work to bring these videos to RU-vid. 😊

Very informative 👍

Hey Woniya, It’s not a big sweater like yours but my friend went to Peru and brought me back an Alpacas sweater. I love it, it’s so soft

U go girl!

Knitting is definitely a survival skill, and also a great skill for daily regular life !!! I do not have that skill, darn it.

What fun you have. It was great to hear previously that you took a trapping instructions. How many snares did you put out? Did some of the snares have an active lift with a log fall? It seems to me that those pesky Whisky Jacks would be an easy extra meal using a bunch of the Ojibwa Birds snares and your bright sweater yarn for a lure. Your adventurous spirit shows in every talk you do!

Another fabulous episode, thank you! It's incredible how much knowledge you fit into these segments. Love your optimism under adversity, too. Can't wait for tonight to see what happens next!

Once more: extra information about wilderness creatures and wilderness living! THANK YOU, WONYIA!

Oh my God just watched episode five!! Women rule!!!

Amazing analysis, thank you!

I'm so glad you talked about your sweater. What kind of yarn did you use? I wouldn't know where to start in buying good, strong, warm yarn. You have inspired me to learn - though I am crafting challenged. I honestly think that this type of creativity and continuing to look at items in different ways is part of what keeps the show interesting as it evolves! I have often thought that this trade off makes the experiences even more unique to each person. I think of many challenges in Alone are like the Apollo 13 dilemma - you only have a certain number of specific items and have to come up with an innovative solution to survive life threatening situations. Ever since the boys started using underwear as a bag, I thought that a person with the right skill set could use part of their sweater as cordage. It is a trade off since each piece of clothing could serve in multiple ways, but I would absolutely trade cordage for pemmican. And is a big sweater less warm on your body? I'd love a whole video on making it! I know that might just be for your paid members. But I think many people in the survival and prepping community would be interested in how to make a sweater that could be backup cordage in a survival situation. And many people are trying to get away from fast fashion or products made in China, so I know that people are open to learning knitting if they have a purpose. Thanks for another great video!

You seem like a amazing person.

It’s amazing you made that jacket!

great talk ! thanks for your time to do these. i am really sad and shocked history has not put out the 10 item list nor video of each showing their items.

The burning the cleaning pads for your meno is great idea, maybe says by itself for most, but should also be applied to all food scraps and like fish cleaning/ fileing. I think you are pretty good at keeping clean shelter but I have seen people not been so careful.

Best way to see the difference in crop vs gizzard is to butcher two chickens, one which has been off feed for the day, and another that has fed well. You get charged extra at most processors if the crops are full, because it makes butchering much more difficult and messy.

I also was wondering if sewing skills would help in other ways out there. I can't sew, so this is a mystery to me, but one I think about. Like as you loose weight, it might be helpful to make your tops more fitting so they protect you from losing body heat. Teimojin made me think that medical sewing skills would be a good thing to practice also.

Tannic water and cranberries are acidic, wood ash is alkaline.

worms have gizzards too 🪱

I am a big fan of yours since season 6. Due to my financial state, i cannot become a patron member. But I am hoping you can win. It seems you have thought this out meticulously.

Enjoyed your video, thank you! I was wondering if you made your beautiful green dress, it looks so perfectly tailored?

I absolutely love your recaps. Question, do you think there's any chance that the producers of the show plant those gifts?

@Woniya: May I ask if the reason your shelter was closer to the sea had to do with access to the little bay and the shells there? And one more question: have you considered building your shelter much further inland and deliberately forgoing the coast?

Would you be willing to share your jacket pattern?! So curious how you made it! So cool!

Another thoughtful and engaging review! Maybe you could open a small business knitting oversized sweaters for future Alone participants. How much did that sweater weigh? I think that clothing is one of humanities most overlooked inventions. Fire was great to be sure but I doubt our ancestors would not have spread very far out of Africa if they hadn't invented clothes. It's so sad to hear about your teeth. I am hoping that the next episode you get more food and is generally more uplifting. Cheers from Alaska

How do you become a patreon member?

you're like really cute finnish / karelian type yeah im weird ok maybe some french too

Did you actually wear your sweater to stay warm?

Why the Re Run this past week????? Sooooo frustrating, wait all week and it's the same damn episode......grrrrr
