Spicy roasted river fish carries Primitive Survival Skills through a week off

Nothing new went up, so a 68-day-old catch-and-cook and a frog dinner from the spring keep the 1.58-million-subscriber channel ticking.

"Skills catch fish in river for survival food, Fish spicy roasted for dinner" is the video doing the most work on Primitive Survival Skills right now. It is a little over two months old, and its title says exactly what happens: a fish out of the river, then a fire and a spicy roast.

That is the channel's whole menu, and it is a consistent one. The other two videos drawing the most daily views are cut from the same cloth. One is a jungle catch-and-cook of a big fish with a hot, spicy finish. The other, from about five months ago, swaps the fish for frogs. The tags lean on the same few words every time: survival food, cooking in the forest, river.

No new uploads arrived this week, and the channel ran exactly at its usual pace, close to 20,000 views a day across a library that has passed 360 million views in total. The about text is just as brief as the descriptions. It wishes everyone good luck and thanks them.

Among the outdoors and homesteading channels nearest its size, the loud weeks belong to others. Nate Petroski is running well above his usual pace. Kamoka Pearl, Fowler's Makery and Mischief and The Wooded Beardsman are all a little below theirs. Primitive Survival Skills sits steady in the middle of the group by subscribers, with the fire still going.
