I saw the preview a couple times today but was actually afraid to watch it. So what did you think?
Love, love, love National Geographic Explorer. Lisa Ling is so great. Glad to see her off The View - she is way too talented for that show.
Did you watch last night's special about North Korea? Unbelievable. I am speechless. It is unreal to think of the conditions those people live in.

Here's a map of Korea. The dichotmomy is striking, is it not? There's the south, the same people as the north, the same resources north and south, and the big difference is in the south it's a free political system and a free economic system.
The people in the north are starving, their growth is stunted. It's a shame, a tragedy.
Light vs. Dark. Good vs. Evil. Life vs. Death.
Which would you choose?
I think I may have mentioned this on another thread, but there is a documentary about North Korea done by the BBC a few years ago, Netflix has it, the perspective, etc is a bit different from any of the US-produced programs, so those with an interest in North Korea who are outside or not from the US especially might enjoy seeing it. And certainly there are many Americans who might enjoy seeing it, too, I just add that caution because of the sensitive subject matter, that difference in perspective might be disturbing for some American viewers...
I watched it yesterday at the gym...it was veryyy interesting! had no idea it was even like that
