Why not on streaming?

This might have been brought up here before and if so, I apologize. But why in nine realms of hell isn’t Westworld on HBO MAX? Isn’t Westworld an HBO SHOW? Doesn’t it OWN Westworld? Why the F**K isn’t it on HBO streaming then???

This is probably the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard of. It’s like BMW coming out with a new car and BMW dealerships simply refusing to sell it or even make it available.

Ice Cold Gold / Blind Frog Ranch

So after watching all of Blind Frog Ranch I was interested to learn that there was a previous show with Josh Feldman and Eric Drummond- so I checked it out. Ice Cold Gold, where a bunch of guys prospected for gold and stuff in Greenland (which actually looks awesome and I totally want to do that).

I was shocked to learn that there was actually a huge split between the two in the 3rd and final season - with Josh and his older brother HATING Eric and walking away from the company they had with Eric and the other guys. Josh did NOT like Eric and vice versa.

So it’s interesting to see how ten years later, Eric was on a show in Utah and (I’m assuming) invited Josh Feldman to be on it? And then Josh ends up leading the show with his Dad in the most recent season? It’s just all very weird.

Josh ended up looking like a MASSIVE idiot at the end of Ice Cold Gold, whereas Eric looked like he knew wtf he was talking about and they found some incredible stuff, including a commercially viable gold mine AND oil.

Confusion

So I just started watching this show and I have questions. I’m on S4 E3 now. Keep in mind, I know that a lot of this is probably BS, but still.

- I’m sorry, but there’s a huge 500+ yr old “box” (looks more like a log cabin to me) that they’ve found under the ranch and they’ve just completely stopped trying to get it out or find out more about it?!

- the gallium thing blew my mind. so the rocks *inside* the 500+ yr old box are all filled with gallium cylinders, and again, they’ve just stopped trying to get it out or find out more about it?! how is that not priorities 1, 2 and 3?

- weren’t they told there were huge concentrations of iridium which is more valuable than gold, and that the ranch could potentially be mined for hundreds of millions of dollars? umm how have they not immediately jumped on that? you could even do it concurrently with the treasure hunting!

- how many times have they just found something interesting, only to completely give up on it? what happened to the huge cave they were lowered into at the end of S2 (I think)? they ran out because of poison gas but I’m sure there’s a way to ventilate it, or at least explore it more? what’s going on?

-same thing with that big rathole they were digging in S3, so they got to within 5-10 ft of where they know is a void, but then they just completely give up and move on?

these are just some of the ten thousand questions I have.

Episode 5 Part 3 - Train issue

Okay so I found the throttle and I’m about to get the train started, except… it won’t. The gear is locked and still won’t turn.
I’ve literally thrown every single piece of coal on the map into the engine, the PSI is pinned as high as it can go, and it’s still locked. Is there something I’m supposed to be doing to “unlock” the gear that the game isn’t prompting you to do, or is it bugged? Because at this point my PSI is going steadily down and there’s no more coal on the map to put in.

One more thing: on the “missions” portion of the menu it’s still saying I’ve gotten 6/15 coal when I’ve likely put in 20 pieces or more now.
