The new season of Dual Survival premiered earlier this week and, as The Ashley previously told you, the show featured two new hosts– wilderness survivalist Bill McConnell and former Green Beret Grady Powell. The new hosts were ushered onto the show without much fanfare from the Discovery Channel, and the network caught some flak from the show’s fans for getting rid of former hosts Joe Teti and Matt Graham. (Their alleged firing is just the latest in a string of cast changes over the past few years.)
The network simply wrote off the cast changes as a way to get “new perspectives” onto the show. While Joe and Matt had previously been silent regarding why they are no longer on the show, the guys have finally spoken out on the topic via social media.
While Matt simply tweeted to thank fans for their support and to let them know that they will be seeing him soon a new show, Joe took to his Facebook page earlier today to address the issue in more detail.
“Guys, its no secret, Matt and I are no longer on the show,” Joe wrote. “It’s TV…people come and go. Here today gone tomorrow. I had a great run, great time, and have great memories. I shot more episodes than anyone that has been on ‘Dual’. That’s a homerun in my book.”
He asked that fans support Grady and Bill and continue to watch the show.
“Give these new guys a chance,” Joe wrote. “It is a VERY demanding show to make. Besides the nerves of being in front of a camera, bouncing from one corner of the planet to the next, from heat to cold to dry to wet, having to perform at a high level, wet, tired, hungry, sick, bad headaches, nausea, diarrhea, etc…etc….etc……makes it even more challenging.”
Judging from social media comments, ‘Dual Survival’ fans seemed underwhelmed by the premiere episode featuring Grady and Bill. Joe, however, seemed confident that the season will improve.
“They will find their groove and do fine. Trust me,” he wrote. “My first episode with Cody [Lundin] was a disaster. I think they only showed it a few times in reruns. If you need a good laugh…watch it. I was blessed to have learned from 2 of the best survival guys that walk this planet, Cody and Matt. These guys have forgotten more about survival than I will ever know. It took my personal skill sets on survival to a level I thought I would never have. I still like to have a lighter on me though!
“Support these new studs like you supported me. I’m sure they will do a great job and show us some new tricks.”
Joe indicated that he, like Matt, is moving on to other projects, although he didn’t specify if any of those projects will be on TV.
“Moving on to bigger and better things,” he wrote. “There are WAY WAY more important things going one right now than a TV show. Don’t you agree?”
In a comment, Joe addressed the people who say they will no longer watch ‘Dual Survival’ because he is not on it anymore.
“Thanks guys for the kind words,” he wrote. “Remember, contrary to popular belief and what a few others think…I was not brought into the show as a “survival expert” as I am not one, nor have I ever stated that….ever. I am a former spec ops guy with a unique background and unique views about survival. Trust me if there were 2 Joe Teti’s on that show it would be awful. The magic is between 2 guys with different views and how do you manage that in a survival situation. Plain and simple.”

Yeah, I loved the first two seasons, but after that… who wants to hear nonstop fighting? The real issue—military or otherwise—is that a lot of people come back from any intense training or experience thinking they’re better than everyone else just because they’ve ‘been somewhere’ and learned something. That self-centeredness stems from the belief that their way is the only right way. The “Bottom line” is that its a “No brainer.” No brainer is a expression to emphasize that my way is better and I know it without even attempting to learn another perspective. Self centeredness is what it really is.
Joe was a cry baby, he had to be the boss.. it had to be his way, or no way..
Not a team player. And was scared of animals and things in the night. He had tunnel vision. I’m surprised anyone could even work with that big headed creature..
Dave and Cody will forever be my favorites. I also have love for Matt Graham.
Dual survival without cody bites.Joe is way to into himself he is not all that cody made that show I was a loyal watcher but not any more u guys messed it all up why???? Thanks billy Simmons
They wanted Ratings an never realized ratings would b huge if it was all natural and unscripted. THEY, Wanted a show that sold, That was the only focus ever. THey nailed it finding Cody, they nailed it finding Matt, Joe I like Joe for one Reason, I’m a trianed Sniper, I joined hte army and could have been a Joe excep after 42 days of service my flat fet that they tried to block me from the Army for had actually become a real problem, the answer was for them to break both my feet at my expense and have htem reset o fit he boots, that was NOT HAPPENING. I chose a plane ticket home, sold it, bought a bus ticket pocketed a hundred bucks and came home on the bus an left a months pay in Lawton Oklahoma LOL, I never found that paycheck. Would be nice to get it. Bu I identify wih Joe as much as Cody or Matt just because I’m not a “survivor” but I am a trained sniper who can pick off a target 3/4 of a mile away and hit a grouping the size of a silver dollar. So when Joe Came on I was immediately intrigued with how he may have altered the world around him with his skills . . .
No, Joe and Matt were a great team, independant minded but able to compromise to move ahead. Best duo on the show…period.
In my humble opinion the best host is Dave, followed by Cody, Matt, Joe and Josh James… I loved this show so much while it was on!
LOL, DAVE CANTERBURY???? Of all the guys on Dual Dave is the last one I would want to survive with LOL he knows howto make char cloth that won’t burn for Cody, he’s an expert on contaminating water that was distilled drop by drop with salt with his hand after being told “use the straws Dave” by Cody. Dave would get a pair of survivors 100% dead in a real survival situation unless thee was a car battery and gasoline, give him a car battery and gasoline and he can do something otherwise all Dave ever did was make it harder for Cody to carry the entire show while constantly in every single episode criticize Cody endlessly for not wearing shoes. Dave would be a good survival food supply in a pinch that’s about it. He does hunt, Dave can hunt. He can’t start a fire without a car battery and gasoline but he can hunt. It’s funny, he has a video on youtube about friction fires like he’s a friction fire expert, funny though in two seasons on dual he managed one fritction fire with a fire kit made by Cody and both Daves hands were useless until all those blisters healed. Nope, Dave is a survival liability not an asset, and I would stick him i n rehab for whatever he takes that makes him so blasted hyper. I would have to constantly shoot the man with my animal tranquilizer rifle to slow him the hell down. Dave is the kind of guy who jumps off a cliff and figures out if theres water below on the way down . . . Dave would get his team killed in a real life survival situation, He has one quality that made him a good US Army Soldier, he listens and does what he’s told. I want a partner smart enough not to have to be told everything so many times, like “Use the Straw Dave!!!”
Rewatch the Dave episodes, you missed how bad he man is. When Dave makes Char Cloth it won’t burn, Dave screws up everything if you watch, Cody is so patient with Dave Dave has two survival skills worth noting: if you give him a charged car battery AND gasoline he can get a fire and he can hunt. Otherwise all of Daves contributions on the show caused Cody to have to work harder. You see Dave complaining about Cody up on the mountain about having to break the path because Cody is wearing socks, and yet in every clip from that episode Cody is the one breaking all the trails while Dave is complaining about having to break the trails for Cody. Dave would get a family of seven dead if he was in charge of surviving them . . . lol, that’s my opinion, I would be happier surviving alone than having Dave along, I would have to banish him from the camp for contaminating the distilled seawater with seawater again, as we saw in his last episode, he’s not very bright, He’s good at following directions but not at thinking and not at surviving without someone else who carries it and constantly is willing to overcome problems caused by Dave, like char cloth prepared in a wet container that has ZERO chance of starting a fire . . . Dave was a liability, why they kept him beyond the first episode is a mystery to me. If you want to survive with Dave you need gasoline and a car battery . . .
I loved the funny lines of Cody and Dave!!!!!!! I learned a lot, you never know what might be needed some day. God bless them!!!!!!!!
My absolute favorite single line from the entire Dual Series and all the hosts was when Cody asked Dave 100% seriously “And how much room do you need to fight the tiger?” Because something in Dave’s head went way off the rails and in Daves Mind he was envisioning himself in hand to hand combat with a tiger inside their camp. Dave Canterbury is the ChumLee of Dual Survival lol the one who constantly breaks things, creates more work, and only stays because someone in the leadership team likes him
CODY MADE THE SHOW! TITI THE WHINER SPOILED THE SHOW! OHLOOK EVERYONE I AM THE COMBAT MISFIT! I AM THE SELF APPOINTEDHERO! LOOK HOW CLUMSY I AM I CAN FALL OVER MY ONE FEET! (CODY WALKED LIKE AN AMERICAN INDIAN ASSURE OF HIS STEPS! TITI WAS JEALOUS OF CODE AND GOT CODY FIRED! TITI WAS THE ONE THAT JEOPARDIZED THE MISHION BY BEING ON THE ROPE TO RETRIEVE A BACKPAK IN AN ICE CREVICE CODY COMPLETED THE MISHION BY HAULING (ITIT) BACK UP TO SAFE TO THE TOP! CODY COULD HAVE LET GO OF THE ROPE! OOPS ITIT FALL GO SPLAT.
(CODY MADE THE SHOW!) (WHINING CRYBABY TITI SPOILED THE SHOW!) CODY IS THE REAL MAN! TITI THE FAKE! OHLOOK AT ME I AM THE BLACK STAR I WANT TO SHINE I AM THE HERO
Bring back Dual survival. Joe & Matt do a show on Netflix or something
I would subscribe to a show with Matt Graham and Cody Lundeen. THe other guys were interesting but those two were the whole spirit of the show
Nah, ya gotta have some balance to the paganistic stuff…
In hindsight, I think there were multiple problems with the show, inconsistencies obvious to anyody with two brain cells to rub together:
1. Dscovery Channel made Dave, Cody, Joe and Matt do ridiculous things for ratings. Things that few sensible survival enthusiasts would attempt. Things like trying to steal honey from bees, usings smoke to stun them temporarily, which got Dave stung abot a dozen times; or gashing open his forearm and then cautering the wound with gun powder and then usig insectjawsto keep the wound close, likeprimitive stitches; slding down a slick fallen cedar log, when most of us would instead find a more mellow way down. Or in NewZeland rapelling off of an ice cliff without a modern anchor, then later rapelling down a frozen waterfall. Total bullshit;
2. The whole clashing survival philosophies of the hosts seemed like manufactured outrage, unnecessary drama from the get-go. What would you expect from dramatists, reality? Just cheap, phoney drama foisted upon the hosts and their viewers, by Discovery Channel;
3. I still believe it would have been better had Discovery Channel not over-reacted to Dave Canterbury’s resume’s white lie about how he was eventually billed during season one as an “SRT sniper”. Hey, Dave completed the SRT course, right? In my opinion, that qualifies him to use that title. It became a combination of one D. C. embellishing his resume and having to apologize for it publicly and another D. C. (the oe who createdd the show) failing to fully vet the claims on their host’s resume. Not even re-branding Dave less threateningly as a “Woodsman” and former military member in season two could save Dave’sjob. Ithink Discovery Channel over-reacted to a few whiny vets’ who’d actually killed people for the United States Government thatcomplained about Dave’s never having actually filled people full of hot lead in service to the nation. Enter actual Spec ops guy Joe Teti, to replace Dave. And so began the hosting musical chairs at Dual Survival. So is viewers responded by watching something else. They liked Dave and Cody and didn’t like wilderness space cadet Matt Chapman as much as human survival encyclopedia Cody Lundin. They especially didn’t like the new, loud, brash non-survival expert Joe Teti replacing Dave Canterbury, whowent on tob a YouTube susrvival and bushcraft icon. Now they’ve come up with two new stiffs to say their lines as they hit their marks, presuably to be chewed and spit out in a couple of years like Dave, Cody, Matt and Teti were.
4. Unlike Les Stroud’s much more realistic and believable SURVIVORMAN, Disccovey Channel’s various attempts at making survival programming sexier and more accessible to a greater audience failed miserably. This despite noticably superior production values as HD filming became the norm after the turn of the 21st century;
5. From the start, Dual Survival lacked the credibility that Les Stroud’show enjoyed with its viewers.The DS viewer immediately becomes aware that a camera operator,sound man/woman anda safety/medical crew are always behind the camera. Only a two-digit-IQ moron would think otherwise, which ‘broke the credibility spell” within few minutes of each show’s beginning. The only two things that made it entertaining were the quality visuals of various environents and watching Dave and Cody execute a plethora of survival skils on command. Key skills like firecraft, various forms ofshelter construction, how to create potable water, foraging/trapping/hunting for food sources, signaling for rescue, wilderness navigation and compass use, etc.
Bottom line? Dual Survival was entertaining at times, especially the wintery Nova Scotia ship wreck scenario and the lympic Nat’l Park-located rain forest episode. Bu as usual the bosses at Discovery Channel f#@ked it up, by turning it into a wilderness soap opera and unnecessary stunt show. One that failed to hold its audience after Dave an Cody were replaced after two/three seasons.
To Dave and Cody: congratulations for getting that work done safely; for teaching us some great lessons along the way whenever possible and for grabbinga as many $$$ as possible from Discovery Channel in the process! Despite the network risking their lives by compelling them do foolish and unnecessary stunts, making them look ridiculous by perpetuaing a silly fued over differing survival styles and especillay all that unnecessary bullshit and drama.
C’mon man; it’s entertainment, not life and death stuff. Chill out…
When are u going to make more Dual Survival shows? I am totally addicted to them!!!!
I love love love the Dual Survival show. Please please please make MORE of them!!!!! An addicted fan of the show.
From what I read, Teti was drummed out of the Special Forces elite group and supposedly othger lies were told by him about his background. I see several questions asking if he ever served in Combat and not one question was answered so that pretty much tells me what i want to know. He is a phony and a BS artist. I can’t watch the show anymore because the other guy apparently lied about his military backgrouns too and Cody was I guy I would not want to be stuck working with. I think if he had to swim, he would sink like a rock. I saw a few times where he looked afraid of being in deep water. And his shorts and bare feet, no matter the wether conditions, totally turned me off to respecting him as a pro. I think he was a fool. I wish Teti did leave him on a mountain top someplace. Matt Graham, I liked a lot. He was real at what he did from my observations of him. He’s the only one I would have liked to meet and get to know.
I just can’t watch it without Joe and Matt. Matt especially blue my mind. His primitive skills were
mind boggling. There s no one like him. If I were in a desperate survival situation I would follow Matt.
Joe was great, but the soul of the show rests with Matt. Bring him back!!!!!
I agree totally. Although I liked Grady after I got over losing g Joe & Matt. By far they were the best
I am soooooooooo glad Teti is gone. It was painful watching the show ever since he came on. However, I miss Matt Graham terribly. He was the most skilled, kind, calm guy. Cody is also missed. The show is not the same without Matt.
Best thing that ever happened to the show was removal of joe. He is a sociopath and a liar. Dave like everyone embellished a bit and owned it afterwards than the discovery channel puts in this moron Joe who has consistent history of being a liability thief and lawyer all exposed by the s.f community. I want the show back with Dave and Cody. I’m a proud American and believe in the constitution but I was very happy to know this dangerous person lost his 2nd amendment lol. Best blow that could ever have been done to that sociopath
Dave was Useless Dave would die in a survival scenario the first time he made wet charcloth that wouldn’t take a spark the minute he contaminated water distilled one drop at a time by adding salt and spilling it everywhere. Dave managed one friction fire in two seasons, with a set built by Cody and he had blisters all over his hands from that attempt. Like I said in other comments, if you strand Dave he needs a dead American vehicle to work with, The Volkswagon Beetle was too much for Dave by his own admission, engine in the back, Dave complained about it, Battery under the seat took Dave an hour to find it. So with gasoline and a car battery, Dave can survive but without gasoline or a car battery, Dave is useless. He’s an Army Grunt, if you stick someone with Dave who can deliver orders Dave can make it work, good Army boy, no sense but follows directions well. He only gets into trouble when he starts using his own gray matter because everything is “Crappy” or “a piece of shit”. Joe at least was qualified to be the military sniper expert, Dave was none of those things, and I’m pretty sure Dave is either a crackhead or speed freak the way he’s always jacked up at 200 Miles Per Hour and always Triggering Cody’s “slow Down or you will die” sensitivities. I would never ever want to keep Dave in tow while trying to survive, unless I was in the Florida Swamps, Dave is very handy in the swamps, I have no alligator training, Dave does have that skill in Spades, so giving Credit where Credit is due, in the Everglades I choose dave in every other place I would go with anyone else but Bill, If Bill Comes along, I need a third person in the group, someone who does therapy . . . lol. I like Bill but the boy needs help. So I say they need to start a new show, with Cody Lundeen and Matt Graham, about long term self sufficiency in a survival setting. Crafting hunting equipment, Composting animal and human waste to use in gardening, go full self sufficiency, Cody has the home, and the understanding of eco friendly technologies, MAt is the hard core I will thrive in the wild always, the pure survivalist so most people would group Matt and Cody together as the two most alike, but Cody is a homeowner, Matt is Tarzan, Their perspectves are completely different. I say it works and ht eshow is awesome and helps people prep, helps people plan and prepares everyone for if the grid ever leaves us powerless and helpless
but old Dave has to no b with me, I would far better I think without Dave along. I’m a barefooter, like Cody I go out in the snow in bare feet, cats do it with no problem, why can’t people? Because people allowed their feet to become sensitive little aesthetic decorations on which to place things. Your feet in shows take your shoes away and you are disabled in the woods, take my shoes away and I don’t care I had no idea where they were to start with. Cody is Right about FEET. and While Cody never once had any problem using whatever footwear he chose, his partners seemed to suffer constant pain from it. Maybe if they weren’t wearing pansy feet, they would get it. But they both Joe and Dave could never accept that feet were designed one way and we are misusing our feet and disabling their functionality by treating them like they need so much protection. to Cody and I, you all who NEED shoes, you’ve done yourselves an extreme disservice. Your feet are 10% what they could be. Sensitive to cold, sensitive to rough surfaces, delicate, weak, easily damaged, unhealthy, covered with bacteria feasting on rotting skin. Dave and Joe, neither one could wrap their head around that concept. Your feet are healthier when you toughen them up to snow and gravel, and wild lands. I wished that one episode designed jus to support Cody should have ben made where the two survivors lost their shoes, so either Dave of Joe could have been seen struggling with their feet while Cody was Masterclass with his feet, as a contrast from the opposite angle. Who’s feet are so handicapped that they NEED SHOES???? Not Cody, Not me and probably not Matt Graham. Everyone else I know in life would be walking around on the same ground I have no problem with like it’s all broken glass. People tell me all the time “Your feet are so tough” They’re not, they’re normal, your feet are so weak is the real problem, because you’ve spent your entire life treating them like fine china that needs layers of protection. So when Dave is constantly criticising how “stupid” it is to not wear shoes all I can say is there’s only one stupid person there Dave and it’s YOU bud, the guy who makes Charcloth in a water bottle with water still in the bottle. The guy who was literally told “theres the water, use a straw” and then fails every spoken word just issued. Daves Mistake was always thinking Dave was the smarter partner . . .
But, But, I LOVED you guys! I am soo sad!
without Matt & Joe, the show will lose a lot of watchers. These 2 are the best. Bring them back.
Guys, fantastic show, really sorry that you are no longer on the show, sorry to see you go.
Craig UK
I will only watch RERUNS of Joe and Matt. I adored their comroderie. It was informative and funny. I pray my Joe did Not kill a dog. If it is confirmed….my opinion will change about my Joe. But….what about Matt??? He was on the show “dude you’re Screwed” loved him there also. By the way DISCOVERY…what happened to that show. LOVED IT too!!!
Hi there Ashley!
I heard something about Joe killing a dog on set because the dog grabbed a cat or kitten and was trying to eat it.
And Joe, somehow killed the dog and a lot of people were offended by that.
Is there any truth to that? And If so,
Please, let us know.
Thanks,
Ken
Thanks Joe and Matt. The best
Always enjoyed Matt immensely and thought he was such a likeable personality, but always thought Joe was a little too hard headed and obnoxious, never giving an inch. Would love to see Matt back on another show. Have never seen the new duo!
It’s fun to watch..always something to learn..the drama is choreograghed but I still love the entertainment..Takes me back..(former Special Forces NCO).
STUPID STUPID STUPID
Hi Joe, my name is LLama.I an from Plaquemine, La. You guys are awesome. You came to my part of the swampland located in Bayou Sorrel, La. Loved it, and you know why . I was raised hunting and fishing and you guys are amazing. Would love to meet you , you guys appreciate the beauty and have 5he knowledge of doing your job so well. You are the big dogs keep the gift that is within you . Wish the very best to the both of you. Will be hard to replace !
Dual survival sucks now! It sucks ass. Has ever since you got Matt and Joe Teri off it. All 4 new guys suck ass. Might as well take the show off the air. I can’t wait to record old ones on my DVR, and only thing better is deleting the new ones!! They suck so very bad!!! Just keep it up, I will delete the entire channel.
“Why does he wear hats that make him look like a pinhead?
– It’s not a hat, it’s actually a condom. Joe Teti is a dickhead.”
LMAO
Joe and Matt was the 2 best. Wont watch anymore. Fuck the show now.
Stop bashing him between every other comment he makes. It makes you look bad. Looks like the bad taste was left to be discovered in discovery’s mouth.
If it isn’t broke, don’t fix it. The show was great with Joe and Matt on it!
Didn’t know matt graham was gay!
Where did you read or hear THAT ? I’ve always WISHED he was, but have seen no evidence of it.
Matt and Joe are levels above the others. The new guys are beyond boring. You have a all-star match with Joe and Matt. They complement each other perfectly. All the other matches have been horrible to watch.
Cody is just the wife crybaby who moves like a snail. Both Dave and Joe had to litterally carry Cody. Like he was the woman who the man had to take care of. And he always had those passive agressive snide smart a$$ remarks. He should have got his butt kicked. Bring back Joe and Matt.
Yes bring back Joe and Matt
Matt and Joe made a show everyone enjoyed watching. Chemistry was great. You knew between them both they could cover any circumstance they were put into. Most important, niether one held the other down. Unlike Cody who was more like a barefoot and pregnant housewife. And Bill was just a crybaby. Dave was also good. Dual Survival is going to drop out. Soon you’ll have Cody and Bill. Call it Dual Babies.
Bring Matt back
I really really wish the show was still on. In my book Teti and Graham cannot be replaced. They had great survival skills and I would like to believe that they are friends. At least that’s what I’ll keep telling myself. So wishing you both a great future in whatever they approach.
What a guy Matt made the show for me I did not care for the know it all joe he was always bashing Mat and so Mat is the Man
I’m a Marine from Indiana and I won’t watch the show ever again and I’m totally fine with that! Folks watch Nat Geo “live or die”
Here is Proof postive that teti lie and lost his lawsuit. General Guest Testifies that he NEVER signed even one of teti’s TWO Fake & Forged Combat Dive Diploma http://www.tacticalshit.com/joe-teti-formerly-on-discovery-is-called-out-by-special-forces-general/
Im watching new guys now … Its not the same … U get to know people that come into your house every week and i just really liked the other guys ..
Love you Joe and Matt
Sorry to see Joe and Matt gone. I hope to see them both on TV again. Grady Powell is a handsome devil
MATT GRAHAM was the most charismatic and sensual man in that show. quite simply. to use a more contemporary vernacular…. WHAT A HUNK!!!!!..
these new guys [ the replacements] are barely “ok” its just they have NO personality or sex appeal at all..
therefore making it pretty dull show,..
Im sure they are qualified in their field…. and probably nice guys…. but have ABSOLUTELY zilch in stage presence…
Want a better rating??
BRING BACK MATT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!…
and Joe they are good together
Bill is the most awful person that has been on dual since the terrible Cody. If you keep bill this show will not last for another season run. I still would love Matt and joe to come back!
My favorite episodes were with Joe and Matt. They had a great relationship of respect and affection. You should never have let them go!
Well said Joe!God Bless and Good Luck
Joe…you & Matt were the show!
I, nor anyone I am affiliated with has watched it since you guys left. It couldn’t be the same….ever! God Bless….you didn’t need them – they needed you! I wish you both the greatest luck in your future… You are true survivors. Many blessings coming your way
Well said Joe ,
A very fair way to see things . You were amazing ! Wish you well ! As well as Matt .
Bring Matt and Joe back
Have watched the show since its inception. I watch to learn from these guys and to be entertained as well. I felt Joe and Matt were the most entertaining and educating. Dave Canteberry was great, I was never impressed with Cody’s personality and idealism about being barefoot. However I respected his knowledge and learned a lot from him. Sure would like to see Joe and Matt paired up again even if in a new show… It will never make since to me why Joe and Matt were pulled. Seems to me there was incredible miss judgment there and that needs to be looked at hard by the network!
Just when you thought you knew all there was to know about Joe Teti? He took his cap off and I really felt I did not know this person at all? After the new evolution of hosts you can really see the epoisodes dangers get higher and more exiting and i think the old hosts could not hack the reality of the new scenarios. They are simply yesterdays heros.
I don’t dislike anyone on the show really. Everyone brings their own bit to the show and that’s what makes it great. My favorite all time Dual guy was Dave, and it’s a pity he can’t come back. I never believed in the lying controversy, even if it were true, so what, he had some great survival info.
Joe T suffered the same attitude problem Cody had after Dual brought in Teti. Cody was the old dog and he tried to be in charge and instead he just looked like a big cry baby. On the other hand Teti suffered a similar attitude problem with Matt . Joe T always seemed to have the need to be macho towards Matt ; which made the show hard to watch.
However Matt’s personality prevailed and eventually Joe T lightened up and the two soon became fun to watch.
If dual was smart they would keep all 4 and switch the 2 pairs out to show viewers an even better contrast of surviving which after all is the whole premise of Dual Survival.
I could really care less about how accurate their bios are. It’s an entertaining show and I don’t really think any reality shows are all that real. I thought that Matt and Joe were funny and worked well together. I like Cody too hopefully all these guys show up on other shows. I just discovered the show fairly recently and haven’t seen many shows with Dave but he was cool too. I’m going to watch the new guys and if it’s entertaining I will keep on watching.
I just think folks take these shows too seriously, it’s supposed to be fun.
I don’t like the two new guys that are currently on duel survival. I think that it was a huge mistake on discovery channel’s part to replace Joe and matt. I felt the same way when they got rid of Cody, but really warmed up to matt, mainly because I remembered him from dude you’re screwed, which is a show that I really wish that discovery channel would bring back. If they didn’t want to bring Joe back I’m sure that they could have found someone to team up with matt. They were so stupid to replace both of them. I probably never watch the show again, and I hope that the ratings drop so low that discovery channel realizes their mistake in doing what they did.
Yes they lost me . Don’t know where they dug up this guy Bill, but they should put him back in his hole and bury him. Talk about having issues the dude cries when he built a fire. Grady is Ok, I think we are going to see them disagreeing on a lot of things. Huge mistake replacing Joe and Matt. I liked Dave and Cody too. Dave is on Dirty Rotten Survival, He is one clever dude his skill set is remarkable to say the least.
You lack the capacity to even comment? Humility and compassion. Bill has them in spades? Grady does not offer much in these shows at all? pre-trained spit em out army fodder, no different to all the previous military hosts? true or not? open your heart and give bill a go? rambo is so not how to survive. PS he also talks to trees? wow. My hero?
Wonder how much Discovery paid jojo to type that ego-deflating drivel on his fan page….cuz teti is still brandishing their name on his page, thick as thieves they are with all of their LIES and COVER-UPS.
And Discovery and teti are still lying to the DS fans. They believe the fans are gullible and will believe their ‘new generation’ BS. Yeah, ok. Teti got Fired and Discovery keeps lying cuz they are in big legal trouble for those lies.
JOSEPH TETI FIRED……
Media still can’t get a straight answer from Discovery…
Here is the 411 on teti:
*teti killed two dogs on set…NO CAT INVOLVED.
*teti threatened the crew and their families if they spoke on what he had done to the dogs.
*Discovery had NOT Canceled Dual Survival before teti killed the dogs. Discovery had ordered 38 NEW episodes of DS that had been rated in the top 20 shows on TV.
*Discovery did issue a warning and instructions to their North Carolina Properties that if teti showed up to not allow him entrance and to call Law Enforcement. NOW, would Discovery go to such lengths if they did not FEAR Joseph Teti?
*Bottom Line: Discovery’s LIES to their fans and to the world are as big and damaging as Joe’s LIES.
How is it that you know so much?
Where are your sources and where is your proof.
I wouldn’t engage the nut that is Monique Marie… Google her name, she’s on a personal vendetta against this guy and has been for seemingly years. If you find a page ANYWHERE on the internet that mentions Teti, she’ll be spouting her drivel. My recommendation is to move on and don’t talk to her… it only fuels the fire of her insanity and lack of any sort of life.
FYI, I was involved int the SLAPP lawsuit that teti filed against the ONLY men who could PROVE his LIES are actually LIES. I have been privy to all of the info that has been subpoenaed on the LYING FRAUD. Maybe teti should have thought twice about suing the ENTIRE Special Forces Association (over 3000 Honorable & Retired SF Men) along with Captain Mykel Hawke, who is also an Honorable, Retired Green Beret Officer. Yeah, it kinda sux when you are so stupid that you sue the men who ran the schools you said you attended and never did or the men who served in the same Units as you and know EXACTLY what kind of Lying dumbass you are. But hey, that is how stupid teti is along with an attorney who took him on without ever filing for the REAL SCHOOL RECORDS.
Now those records show that teti boy FORGED TWO, not ONE, but TWO Combat Dive Diplomas when the MILITARY School records show teti FAILED. Yeah, teti is in one heck of a pile of doo doo.
I could care less who says what about me. I fight for the TRUTH to be known. The TRUTH that the Special Forces Association and Captain Mykel Hawke are fighting for in the SLAPP LAWSUIT. Those who want to believe a LIAR & FRAUD over the TRUE SF HEROES can do so and look like the blind sheep they are once all of this is made public.
Hi Mykel.
A SLAPP suite can only be filed after you sued someone and it was dismissed with prejudice as a legal action intended to harass, defame, or otherwise attack someone.
By admitting you were hit with a SLAPP you are admitting that the court system found that your claims were knowingly false.
Thanks for letting us no that you are full of BS.
Who are you???? You say some harsh stuff, are you angry at Joe on a personal level? The show was great with him on it and based on all the supposed lies you believe, I’m sure you NEVER watched the show right?
You have the same name as Joe’s lead Joe hag…
