Survivor B&B RHAPups

This week David and Jessica look back at Survivor: Cagayan and the first appearance of Sarah Lacina.

David and Jessica once again went back in time, this week to San Juan Del Sur and a Survivor episode that featured the self-destruction of Drew Christy. There are many questions about why Drew was voted out – was it because he was delusional? Oblivious? Overconfident? Arrogant?

Kel came into Survivor: The Australian Outback from the military and had studied the first season so he believed he was ready for the game. But clearly something was missing. David and Jessica have a heated debate about beef jerky and look at the whole situation to see if those accusations were the only reason he was voted out or there was more to it. And David delves into his old articles and int...
