Would highly recommend not watching the history channel show of this unless you want to watch 20 minutes of recaps and “next ons” for every 5 minutes of content + unsubstantiated conspiracy theories about the knights Templar

I watched for a bit, a few seasons back. Once they had some people on who claimed they could detect diamonds and emeralds from satellite imagery, I dropped it.

It's a shame, because I read about Oak Island when I was a kid in the 70s and really wanted a serious investigation and discovery.

I tried once, and got through about 10 minutes. There are a ton of other resources out there that are far more informative and entertaining
