Survivor Fans Podcast

This week we interviewed Tyson Apostol. He left the game in episode 6 of Survivor Heroes vs. Villains. Tyson's known for his one liners. He saved one of his best ones to describe his own plight after he was voted out. Listen to this interview to find out when and why he decided to change his vote to Parvati, how he chose and developed his alliances, who he thinks had given up in the villains tribe...

  We do not like having our favorite show interrupted, but at least it came back with a bang! Were you impressed with Candice? How about Russell's bold move? Do you think Colby quit or was he just playing possum? Is there a chance that Russell might have swayed Coach back to his side? Do you think there is any chance that we will see the Heroes rally? Here are the tribes after episode 6. Heroes: A...

  There were lots of good points in this week's feedback and interesting predictions for how the Boston Rob vs. Russell conflict will resolve. If you were a Tom fan, you probably were not happy with the episode. We get to hear from both perspectives this time, but we're pretty unanimous that things look bleak for the Heroes from here on out. For each episode, we provide 3 podcasts: an episode reca...

This week we interviewed Tom Westman. He left the game in episode 5 of Survivor Heroes vs. Villains. Tom was a heavy fan favorite coming into the game due to his incredible performance in Palau, but found himself on the outside of this tribe instead of leading this time. He put up a great fight, but it appeared to be a losing battle from the beginning. Listen to this interview to find out what cha...

  Another puzzle, another loss for the Heroes. Good thing they don't show us both challenges in the previews. Even the Heroes acknowledged it this time. Do you think it was fair to give James that splint? Did the Heroes make the best choice for the tribe? Who's your pick for the Boston Rob vs. Russell showdown? Here are the tribes after episode 5. Heroes: Amanda, Candice, Colby, James, J.T. and Ru...

There were two big themes in the feedback for episode four. Many were sad to see Cirie go although most of us expected it sooner rather than later. We were pretty unanimous in our appreciation of how it all went down. Major league strategy, regardless of the outcome, will always be respected by the true fans. The other point of discussion centered on Coach. Those that "drank the koolaid" found it...

This week we interviewed Cirie Fields. She left the game in episode 4 of Survivor Heroes vs. Villains. She appeared to be in the catbird seat within a strong Heroes alliance. Stephenie told her she would be next. We were just as surprised as Cirie when it turned out to be true. Listen to this interview to find out the truth about the "Micronesia Alliance", her thoughts on James' and JT's behavior,...

  Yes! Our first blindside of the season and what a doozy. Will Amanda showcase her skills as a strategist, or will she be set adrift without Cirie to guide her? Has Tom found a way to save himself and Colby? Things are looking grim for Russell this time around. Can you see a way he can recover from betraying his tribe and searching for the HII alone? Here are the tribes after episode 4. Heroes: A...

Forget the Parvati affect. Half of you seemed to have been hypnotized by Coach this week. We are not sure how exactly this happened but we will be monitoring these developments closely going forward and hope a future episode may offer a cure. For each episode, we provide 3 podcasts: an episode recap, an interview with the castoff and a chance for Survivor fans like yourself to sound off on what yo...

This week we interviewed Randy Bailey. He left the game in episode 3 of Survivor Heroes vs. Villains. He never seemed to find a place in his tribe. As a fellow super fan of the show, we were sorry to see him go although it seemed inevitable from early on. Listen to this interview to find out how he felt about his edit, the health problems he suffered during the game, a teaser for future episodes a...

  Surprise! The Heroes stand a chance to win as long as they keep those pesky puzzles out of the challenges. How did this version of the Sumo challenge compare to Palau and Fiji? How would you rank them? Do you think Parvati can still go deep in the game given that everyone appears to be on to her game? How do you think Russell is doing this time? Is he controlling the game or merely along for the...

  A division in a tribe results in a split in the fans. Which side did you land on? Was James justified or was he just a big bully? Were you sad to see Stephenie go? Did Boston Rob charm you or did it get on your nerves. You answer all those questions and more in this excellent, epic fan participation show. For each episode, we provide 3 podcasts: an episode recap, an interview with the castoff an...

This week we interviewed Stephenie LaGrossa. She left the game in episode 2 of Survivor Heroes vs. Villains. She proved she was one of the toughest people out there in the first challenge when she hung in there after dislocating her shoulder. We were disappointed to see her leave so soon. Listen to this interview to find out what she thinks about each of her tribemates, who else yelled at her besi...

  For the second time now, we have seen the Villains fall significantly behind in the Immunity challenge and then stage a triumphant comeback. Their ability to choose and follow a single leader without a lot of discussion really appears to be paying off. How did you view the exchange between Stephenie and James? Was James being a bully? Was Stephenie right to respond? Will Tom and Colby be the nex...

  Today is our podcast birthday! We're officially 5 years old today, and we're so happy we could enjoy it together with you. The first episode of Heroes vs. Villains has aired, and it's time to see what you thought about it. We all, with one exception, really enjoyed the extended two hour episode. There were many common questions such as: who's Danielle, what season was Candice in, and why did the...

This week we interviewed Sugar. She left the game in episode 1 of Survivor Heroes vs. Villains. This was a memorable interview if only for the fact that it was the first time we ever spoke to someone in their bathtub as they shaved their legs. Listen to this interview to learn more about her alliances going into the game, find out if she was attracted to Colby, how she felt about her edit and lots...

  Wow, I think that was the best first episode of a season that we have ever seen. It was really excellent from beginning to end: from the brutal reward challenge, to the chicken capture, to making fire, and an amazing comeback in the immunity challenge. What was your favorite moment? Do you think Boston Rob will be leaving on a medical? Could the potential romance between Coach and Jerri work to...

  The first episode of Heroes vs. Villains is almost here, and we have another treat to make the time pass faster. How do your predictions and assessments stack up against this group of Survivor Super Fans? This is Part II of our Prediction Preview show. Twenty six fans, just like you, recorded their perspective on the cast including their choice of favorites, who's most likely to get voted out fi...

  This is part I of our Preview Predictions show for Heroes vs. Villains. We have recorded our perspective on each of the All Stars including how we think they will do in the overall game as well as some extras like who will be voted out first, who will make final 3, who will leave on medicals, as well as our picks for best and worst case final 3. We love doing preview shows to collect your predic...

What did you think of the Surviving Survior special? Wouldn't it be great to sit down with a real Survivor and get their first hand impressions and thoughts? That's exactly what we have for you in another special edition of the Survivor Fans Podcast. We had the opportunity to speak with Survivor legend Rob Cesternino immediately after it aired Thursday night. He shared his thoughts about the show...

  Wow, can you believe Survivor's almost ready to start up again with season 20? We're really excited about the new Heroes vs Villians cast and we'll be talking more about that soon. In a similar spirit, here's a another special, group Skypecast that your fellow listeners put together to highlight our all time, top 20 Survivors. Over 50 of you responded with your favorites. Shane, Ian, Kimberly, C...

This past weekend, Jo Ann and I enjoyed the incredible honor of attending the Survivor 10th Anniversary party. We wanted to share some of our experience with you in this episode of the podcast. Our adventure started on Friday and included a party hosted at the hotel by Sandra Diaz, through the big bash on Saturday night which included over 200 past Survivors, with a wrap up Sunday brunch surrounde...

From this last batch of feedback you sent in, it seems we all enjoyed this season and the finale episode, but were split once again by the final result. Russell managed to keep us polarized all the way to the end. We want to thank you all. Your participation this season in our family of Survivor fans added to the experience and enhanced it ten fold. We had a blast watching and talking about Surviv...

We interviewed Russell Hantz on the red carpet after the Survivor Samoa live reunion show. He finished the game in second place and won the Sprint Player of the Season award. Russell made this season for us as he appeared to play the game from begining to end on level above and beyond the other castaways. Watch this interview to learn how he felt about being a fan favorite, his perspective on the...
