I am a huge fan of this show. It shows up in Canada on OLN under the title Pilot Guides (every night at 10pm). I downloaded the mp3 for the theme music onto my laptop, and whenever I am in a new city, I will play the theme songs a couple of times before going out to explore just to get myself psyched up. (The song is available free of charge from the website).

It was a big deciding factor in my decision to try and climb Mt. Kilimanjaro (along with the plaque at the top of Mt. Diablo outside of San Francisco). Ian Wright climbed Kilimanjaro in the Tanzania episode. It also piqued my interest in Mongolia and the trans-Siberian train.
