Mongolian Must Do: Wrestle a Local - Chris Bashinelli

Food is a visceral part of experiencing another culture, and few people know that better than Chris Bashinelli. He's eaten a buffalo liver on the South Dakota plains and a pig's eye to win a bet on Long Island, but to Bashinelli travel is more than just eating weird foods. The National Geographic Young Explorer hosts Bridge The Gap, a series focused on presenting different cultures to viewers to foster empathy and understanding among different groups. He tells Boyd that it's impossible to escape Mongolia without first wrestling a local, but that it can be done while only sustaining mild injuries.
