Are you a big a fan of being naked? And afraid? Well here’s your chance. A casting director for Discovery Channel’s Naked and Afraid program reached out to us to see if we knew anyone looking to interview to be on the show and I thought I’d put it out to the Lumber Society crew. From the casting director: “Metal Flowers Media is currently casting for the next season of the long-running Discovery Channel series Naked and Afraid. We are actively looking to connect with exciting, fun and skilled people who want to take on the challenge of a lifetime. If this is of interest please reach out directly to Lydia via email to schedule a phone call.” Lydia Perozzi: castingassociate@metalflowersmedia.com
