The Real Man's Road Trip: Sean & Jon Go West Season 1 Episode 2 -

Airdate: 2012-Dec-10

Episode summary:

Sean and Jon live the Cajun life in the swamps of Louisiana. Thirty miles wide and 150 miles long, the Atchafalaya river basin has been home to the French-speaking Cajuns for generations. Sean and Jon's host Jodi Meche is Cajun through and through, and hunts and eats anything he can find in the swamp. On the first night he takes Sean and Jon out to catch bullfrogs. With torches on their heads, and alligators all around them, Jon's sense of humour deserts him, but Sean sees the surreal side of the situation, comparing the bullfrog hunt to a crack addict's search for drugs. Jon has recently become vegetarian and is finding the Cajun appetite for killing hard to take. The next day Jodi takes them to his hunting camp on a remote island, where they're joined by Jodi's friends and family dressed in camouflage gear and armed with guns. Sean and Jon learn to handle guns, and then go out on a duck hunt. Jon takes a pacifist stance, but Sean is all ready for action. If only there were some ducks! As they head off to their final location in the swamps - this time to hunt alligator - Sean and Jon start to bicker. The atmosphere is still tense when they meet up with alligator hunter Joey the following morning. Joey has been hunting and skinning alligators all his life and takes Sean and Jon in his boat to where he has pre-baited some lines. Will Sean and Jon pass the real man test? And can they kiss and make up in time for the alligator feast and Cajun two-step at Whiskey River?
