I’m binging Life Below Zero and Sue is my favorite. OK, I’m a 60-yr old independent cuss myself so there’s that !~! Sue’s tenacity and willingness to dive into anything impress the hell outta me. She reminds me of my husband and his dad: always willing to try…
I almost stopped watching this Netfilx series because of Sue Aiken’s use of the English language. Constant use of the F word, sometimes with “mother” in front of it is just not necessary. If she was Eddie Murphy, I could better understand.
So, it’s ‘ok’ for Eddie Murphy to do it? Why?

Hey Sue,
Currently watching some of your episodes, the ones where you’re grandson is visiting and your showing him some essential things. Your learning to ice fish, FUCK! You are kick-ass!!! Oh wait sorry, some people get offended by the word FUCK! Shit I said again. Bet if you or any other women said Fuck me, their response would be FUCK YEAH!
Anyway, not writing for that. I just think you have BIGGER BALLS than most men and I don’t mean that in a disparaging way. I was in the USMC and don’t mind saying that I wouldn’t live/do half the shit you do. You are a turn on though!
I really have the utmost respect for you and thanks for teaching your grandkids.
