I cannot imagine having grizzled veteran Gold Rush miner Tony Beets as a father-in-law, but that's exactly what happened earlier this month for a young man named Taylor Mayes as he married Tony's daughter Monica Beets in what looks to have been a beautiful and VERY Monica Beets wedding ceremony!

It appears as though Discovery is getting a little inspiration from Starcasm as they have taken our Todd Hoffman and Mad Max mash up to a whole new level for a dramatic Fury Road inspired promo trailer for the new season of Gold Rush!

We have some great news to report for old school fans of Gold Rush as former star Dakota Fred Hurt has married Jennifer Sheets, his Executive Assistant and cook for his mining crew! PLUS, it appears as though Dakota Fred and son Dustin might be returning to Gold Rush as they announced earlier this year they were filming a TV show with teh same production company that makes the popular Discovery series!

As viewers of Discovery's Gold Rush are well aware, Tony Beets is quite fond of his million-dollar bucket dredge. Some might go so far as to say he has treated the floating machinery just like a 75-year-old, 350-ton adopted child. So, I suppose it would make sense that Tony would want to add the dredge to his rather short list of tattoos that includes the names of his wife and his four other children.

Christo Doyle, Gold Rush Executive Producer and host of The Dirt, ended months of speculation by taking to Twitter and Periscope to announce the Gold Rush Season 6 premiere dates for the US and the UK! Plus, he revealed a two-minute preview trailer for what looks to be yet another dramatic season chock full of drama, blunders–and, of course, GOLD!
