Really liked this host he didn't try and take the spot like many hosts and he was really chill and open to let these people talk about their life's and business and culture. Good job munchies more hosts like him and more interesting people like the ones shown you spend too much time on hipster bullshit.
Tarik is one of better hosts on Munchies and everyone in these comment sections love but you gotta give mad props to the guy who chooses the people he visits. The Squid fishing dude, the duck hunting islander from the last episode, and this Skokomish dude are all laid back, humble, no nonsense, non pretentious people who represent the area they are from really well and make for good blue collar viewing. I mean you got to have the 3-star, James Beard Award winning, industry leading, uber hipster chefs in these too (This is Munchies after all), but these other guys are just straight up REAL.
This was a legit show. As a fisherman, I've got mad respect for these natives; true natives, people who want to sustain their environment--even after the mass public continues to consume their world. The host was respectful. Decent guy.
Wow as Washington native I was really impressed how the host captures the many different cultures in Washington. He is very careful and respectful to the people and what they do! So glad I found this channel.
No idea how I've never seen this series. What a fantastic representation of Western Washington. The host is great, the camera and audio and editing are all great. This is a gem of a show.
Indeed it is. The historical fullness is exquisite. The food imagery and vocabulary they use to describe it really gives me a sense of the taste and culture. The host is by far the most relatable and enjoyable part of the series, he so down to earth and really makes an effort to balance entertainment and exposure when he's at said destinations.
Damn, it just makes you think that when you buy a vac-packed salmon in your local supermarket, these kind of guys all around the world are preserving a species for our consumption. What a great job they do.
@@jleezypd1445 No they aren’t lmao, they get access because they don’t abuse it. The natives ran this country for thousands of years without a fraction of the issues we face today, white people got it for like 200 and instantly turned it to shit.
I love how much they respected the indigenous peoples, and how the indigenous peoples welcomed us in turn! Sad how people treat them badly and their way of life is under attack :(
Another great episode. I don't want this series to end... Tarik is like the perfect person to tag along with on some adventure, then go and make a good meal and chow down with.
Tarik is awesome he really lets these people tell their stories and he isn’t afraid to participate in whatever they are doing he doesn’t think twice and that’s a great host right there he gets along and jokes around creating such a cool environment!
This interviewer is great. You can tell how good he is by the way he got both men to open up gradually as the vid went on. The first guy seemed lethargic and low energy but you learn he is a pretty chill guy after he opened up. The second dude kinda sorta had the same vibe but the host quickly had him cracking jokes. This is what a great interviewer does
I would watch an hour of Tarik interviewing or just talking to these people. Their story is so interesting. And again, Munchies has found the perfect person to host.
There's an entire city called Squamish outside Vancouver, B.C. Living that spiritual real-real out here. What they're doing in Washington for the salmon population is incredible. Love northwest coast aboriginal culture. Well done, Munchies.
Rarely have I seen such a humble and every day look in to a native American culture, truly fascinating. The best way to experience a culture is around the dinner table.
I didn't know who Tarik Abdullah was before this Munchies series. He's really chill and has a good personality. He seems genuinely curious to learn and experience. I'm a fan; more Tarik!
I love this series! The diversity and love for food is amazing. Tarik is a amazing host and really showcases the amazing culture and food of Washington. Way better then any thing I watch on food network. Thank you and keep up the good work. ❤️
This is awesome! When I was in high school I was fortunate enough to have a school with a aquaculture program where we raised and sained catfish ponds and also took care of tanked fish in a lab. We hatched flounder and converted some to freshwater and released lots of saltwater flounder in a local canal between long beach NC and the intercoastal waterway.
Munchies is so underrated. they deserve more credit. i prefer to watch munchies rather than TLC shows. Good job Munchies hope you reach millions subscriber.
I like this host: Personable, fascinated (even if not to a fault), light-hearted Good stuff. The story about the Skokomish Tribe was very interesting. I'm glad I watched, Munchies.
+Tarik Abdullah hey bud thanks for coming out I had a blast, the fish are running in a week if your around come back through I got some gear you can use
Great video! This is actually the first one of your videos I've seen. I was rather impressed. I'm totally going to subscribe and hit that bell icon! One thing that wasn't mentioned - the dams, in particular, are threatening the salmon. They prevent salmon from going to and from their natural habitats, and by holding water back to heat up in the sun, the water gets too hot for the salmon, and too dirty! Even dams that have fish ladders and other dams that make it possible for salmon to pass still greatly restrict the amount of salmon who can pass from river to ocean/ocean to river safely, and some of them still get chopped up. When you consider they have to go through dam after dam after dam, that adds up - or rather, that subtracts. Not all dams are created equally. Four dams, above the others, are a death sentence to the endangered salmon - the four Lower Snake River dams. These dams halt and warm the cool water from the Snake River, a main tributary of the Columbia River, that the salmon need to thrive, and utterly block their travel. These dams are among the oldest, most inefficient dams in the state, and were not built with the needs of salmon in mind. Fishermen, river conservationists, environmental scientists, energy companies, kayakers, and tribes alike all agree: the four Lower Snake River dams have got to go. Luckily, the Biden Administration, Oregon governor Kate Brown, and Washington governor Jay Inslee all agree that the dams should be replaced, but there is still opposition from politicians, as well as people who wrongly fear that getting rid of the dams will drive power rates through the roof. I just thought I should share that... also, I just noticed this video is 7 years old. Some people were still against the dams back then, but I guess knowledge wasn't that widespread. I definitely had no idea about this. Still posting this so others see, but no judgment toward you, Tarik. Keep living your best life!
Seeing two cultures of different backgrounds/way of life/worlds laughing and just understanding and appreciating the differences Of each own brings me great joy. Firm believer the younger generation will become world citizens and lead us on a path of unity.
9:30 reminded me of my grandfathers neighbor who would stop by and offer us Smoked Salmon. I was really young but remember it being absolutely amazing!
Skokomish guy 100% needs to do voiceover for audiobooks, incredible voice.
And guide us into the history of the America
Pretty sure he's related to Sam Elliott, they have the same voice
I completely thought the same thing!!!

Never agreed so much with a man bearing my last name.
Yeah, the host has humility compared to others
I can’t agree more!!!
He took the river n word extremely well. That genuinely caught me off guard
agreed

It's so awesome my tribe is represented in this episode :) Thanks for bringing the issues at hand up
can u pls tell me what he meant by 'they(fish) come back' after going into the ocean for few years.

The ones at the supermarket are usually raised in fish farms.

We do have salmon jerky. And sometimes we call it salmon candy.

This was really well done. I love videos that allow a peoples' culture to explain itself.
The way they breed the salmon is actually so interesting and smart wow!! Also props to the host, he's awesome and I'm glad he hosted this series

Looking forward to part five! Love this host. He's great :)
This is the best host for Munchies ever!!!! I love this episode. He needs more of these. Watched this like ten times.
Still an amazing show with the best and most humble host!
It's amazing what we learn when we sit down and listen to someone we never knew. we learn their story and what makes them stronger.
RESPECT TO MY INDIGENOUS BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN AMERICA - KIA ORA
Tarik is just enjoying this. Not really doing a interview or being a host just naturally enjoying learning and love.

Finally a good host on Munchies. Most of the other hosts are just such hipsters who are only trying to look cool. Love this episode.
Munchies is so underrated. they deserve more credit. i prefer to watch munchies rather than TLC shows. Good job Munchies hope you reach millions subscriber.
Let this guy host more shows!
good job to the host he kept me interested and wasn't too over the top. loved it. hope the local people are treated better soon
I like this host: Personable, fascinated (even if not to a fault), light-hearted
Good stuff. The story about the Skokomish Tribe was very interesting. I'm glad I watched, Munchies.
I cant wait to return home to the mountains, Rain, and forests!!!
I know pretty much every comment is full of people praising Tariq but literally, he is a pretty amazing host. Good job.

Yo I love this host. He doesn't talk too much, and he doesn't talk enough, respects and talks about his surroundings.
am I the only one who thinks the host have a dave chappelle personality
He does and also he sounds like Mos Def when Dave Chappelle had his comedy show! It sure brings back memories.
"im bout to have six-thousands kids" Yeah. i hear some similarities, as well.
He kinda Sounds like Ice T
Excellent job by the host. Very flexible, respectful, and relatable. Definitely a good start to, hopefully, a long career.
What a nice genuine guy. Love him.
What a great Food/Travel/Experience channel . Great to hear and watch those Salmon Hatchery and Salmon Smoking process. Golden Expreience!
Tarik is amazeballs !!
Tarik is amazing, nice and so respectful. Nice job and very good reporting.
Wow this guy should have a travel show
One of the better Journalists I've seen on Vice. I'd like to see more of him!
The Skokimish mans deep voice could have a career in voice over animations.
he sounds like that one famous guy Sam something - who does a lot of narrations in Western movies
My man tarik was holding that salmon like a peanut butter and crack sandwich. And I respect that shit
This was fun, the Indian fellow and the host had fun, nice seeing that.
Tarik, you are killing it. Great episode.
few times i had an impression that he sounds kinda like dave chapelle.. his laugh for example
