“I really enjoyed working with Nick (Uhas) and the scientific perspective he brought to our interpretations of the work and the conversation about challenges. Hunter March is a host of other Netflix reality shows. He just brings this nice new energy to the whole thing that’s really interesting for people to see.”
It is also worth considering Blown awaythe producers were interested in exploring more the artistry of glassblowing, which Hunter March could relate to based on his own experience.
