In Discovery’s hit series Tales from the Explorers Club, Josh Gates invites viewers inside the headquarters of the world-famous Explorers Club to relive the epic journeys of adventurers who have pushed the boundaries of human possibility.
As a member of this prestigious organization and the host of Discovery's hit travel-adventure series "Expedition Unknown," Gates offers exclusive access to the Club's storied archives, expert staff, incredible artifacts, and even fellow members and explorers. The series will profile the accomplishments of real-life action heroes including Ernest Shackleton, Gertrude Bell, Sir Edmund Hillary, Jim Lovell, and Chuck Yeager among others.
Each uniquely themed episode focuses on historic Explorers Club members whose daring accomplishments changed the world - from Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay's historic first summit of Mt. Everest to a father and son's dangerous mission to explore the world's deepest oceanic trench, Challenger Deep. Viewers will witness the unforgettable journeys of those who dared to push boundaries by being the first to reach the North and South poles, risking their lives to explore outer space, and so much more. Additionally, each episode will highlight one trailblazing recipient of The Explorers Club Discovery Expedition Grant and showcase the innovative projects that continue to expand our knowledge of the world around us.
