So, I watched "The 'G' Word" last night.

A short Netflix series, produced by Higher Ground Productions (yes, that's Michelle and Barack Obama).

I guess there were 5 or 6 episodes. Not too bad.

Yes, the former President makes an appearance.

Anyone else seen it?

We are watching Obama's series on "Our Great National Parks." Loving it!

Just started the first episode yesterday, pretty interesting so far.

I enjoyed Adam ruining everything and this series seems to have a similar feel!

He keeps it simple and engaging.
