![]() ![]() ![]() Do we put it together, or is this just a flash in the pan? And, it is genuinely our last shot at gold mining again. So it’s my job to see if I can put all this together. So I started working towards finding an avenue of how we can take our little tiny company-and that is all we are-is a little company. And I knew my dad’s not done gold mining. And Jack, he’s the heart and soul, and he’s the dream, he’s the guy that got us all doing this.ĭuring COVID, he was out building a wash plant out in the parking lot. Hunter brings enthusiasm, energy, and youth, and he’s one of the main reasons we’re doing this now. Todd Hoffman: So I’m the guy who has to do the dirty work. M&C: You’ve got three generations of Hoffmans working together and starring on this show, but what does Hunter bring to the table for you? And conversely, what does Jack bring to the Hoffman business model? I want people to get back on the train, get on this adventure, crack open a beer, and travel with us. So they have a lot of faith in us to give us the number one time slot on Friday nights. They gave us a poll position, tomorrow night, we’re on at 10 PM following Gold Rush, but we’re at eight o’clock the following week. Discovery Channel was gracious enough to say yes. I want people to feel like they’re with us, almost, it’s not documentary style, but a slower pace where you feel like you’re part of it and making decisions and part of being in the cleanup room with Jack and Thurber while they’re bickering back and forth and having fun.Īnd there’s more joy in it. Gold Rush is a huge hit, but it is a highlight reel. I’d like to have more faith and more family. So coming back with Hoffman Family Gold was cool because Discovery Channel learned that I had this opportunity to mine.ĭiscovery Channel and I came together, and I said, I would like another crack at this thing. So there are many different things that I think I need to be doing right then. And we helped five hundred patients get off of drugs and alcohol. There was maturity, both in my life and Hunter’s life, but I also got a chance to start a drug and alcohol treatment center. And it was time for us to have a break, and, three years during that, my kids, we were able to repair our relationships. We’d felt like we were pushed in the corner of the show that we created. There was some strain between Hunter, myself, and the TV show, the production crew. It can also be unhealthy in a lot of ways. ![]() Todd Hoffman: So, if you picture my kids, they grew up on a TV set slash goldmine. And I was hoping you could expand on that. M&C: In the promo, your voiceover, you say you lost your focus as a family in the promo teaser for the show. So, I do have a lot of people of faith that follow me, and I believe in the power of prayer. And we’re working through it right now, so yes, we’re moving in the right direction, and it’s going well.Īnd I ask people to pray for me because I’m an open book. Todd Hoffman: Everything’s okay with my family. Monsters & Critics: On March 15, you asked fans that follow you on Twitter for prayers. ![]() Hoffman wants you to bet on him, his new perspective, and have faith in his intentions for the latest Gold Rush spin-offs. The bigger question is whether grit, God, and gumption form the trinity of tenacity for Hoffman to make it, or will he implode and the series be a one-season fluke? With Alaska’s mercurial nature-unforgiving weather, unseasoned crews, “torn up” equipment- this new mine is a sure bet that the Hoffmans wager on, and if they get the mining rights for the next decade, it could build a new family legacy. Todd is banking his future mining career on turning around a flagging mine far off the grid 80 miles north of Nome, Alaska. ![]()
