"That's How You DO It!" (A Survivor Strategy Pod)

High lever strategic analysis of our first double-vote out episode of #Survivor50? You bet. Plus a Challenge to all Magic players and Charlie swears he’s not a racist. You be the judge. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tha…

Very funny joke from @lordtupperware : “…and for second place, you get a can of tuna fish and kid rock!”

In the biggest twist yet of #Survivor50, we spend 20 minutes talking about how much we loved the Zac Brown reward in all of its glory. No strategy talk, just basking in some country glory. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tha…

@abastecki Oh fear not. I’m already planning to lay out for a long @lordtupperware rant. That’s like sweet music to my ears.

I'm hoping that @ThatsHowYouPOD just goes into a 20 minute dramatic theater read in the middle of the episode this week.

@smargenna We also didn’t get deep enough into the why it makes sense for Rizo, too — if he told his OG tribe that he and Savannah weren’t close, it feels awkward to now say “actually we were besties”. So that part makes sense even if a kind of funny/awkward moment.

@ThatsHowYouPOD Great episode! I also had the same exact thought, that they kinda edited the narrative between Charlie and Rizo.

Christmas is officially back on! A jam-packed episode full of more therapy, swap-dynamic theories, and much more! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tha…

Is there anything more relaxing than being rocked in a swing by Christian Hubicki? Perhaps listening to our strategic breakdown of ep 2 of #survivor season 50. We cover secrets and secretions, and honor the title of this episode with a bit of therapy! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tha…

Episode 1 of Season 50 is up! What an Epic Party it’s gonna be this season. Will Charlie’s wife make it through to the end? Will Ethan take any notes on any episodes? Mike white is ripped and we’re jazzed to be back! Let’s science this thing! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tha…

Surprise POD drop??? You might have given up on us, you might have moved on to lesser Survivor Pods…but the boys are BACK for Season 50! Season Preview/Syllabus POD dropped! Get hyped! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tha…

@mattcapece @lordtupperware …my antennae would certainly be up if someone insisted on being on majority, but also delicate to say “why don’t you got on the minority” without implying you don’t trust someone. Without seeing that convo I’m hoping for Andy’s sake he didn’t suggest placement, but got lucky.

@mattcapece @lordtupperware Agreed on that! Letting Italy work when there were so many ways to stop it gives credence to the Underdog Nomenclature. Even though I think R and C both shown themselves to be good players. Having not been on island I imagine it’s delicate to negotiate who is where on a vote…

Mini-pod, all via text. Miss podding for you all. Don’t worry, Charlie has used his time well and applied. 🤞 📸: @lordtupperware

@rodDiazTwine You can believe in a premise and not believe it occurs every time. I believe in democracy but don’t agree with every choice my electorate makes. The principle can be right with an errant result. All winners are legitimate, but not necessarily the best player that season.

@jonlovett So sad to lose you! Did you consider shooting? Obv social downside there, but if you were on bottom anyway…

stop the steal

@TheNotRealRick @jonlovett @survivorcbs I picture a lot of people emulating Boston Rob for swing state purposes. “Pennsylvania Josh is digging deep!”

Hey @jonlovett and @survivorcbs — it seems we have a chance to do something truly extraordinary here. We have a little over 26 days until the DNC, and at least 18 hungry democrats. It would even slot in perfectly as the new Season “47”. #comeoninDems #thepartyhasspoken

@abastecki @lordtupperware The Al-Liz-gabler

@lordtupperware The last straw was when both Liz and Ben in the final 4 thought Liz was playing a blinder of a game.

Im very happy for Kenzie’s win and am sad for Charlie, but this succinctly puts into words what felt off about this season to me

@lordtupperware @raphlevymtg Except the winner of season 46 of Survivor. It was Kenzie.

@raphlevymtg It’s been days, and you’re checking twitter, I don’t know what to tell ya

@mat_glaser I do think Jeff/producers like innovation, so they are okay with some line-crossing the first time, and then draw the line firmly. But they like rewarding creativity/thinking outside the box, so they give one the first time. Choosing good TV over maximum game fairness.

I would’ve voted for Charlie, but still find Kenzie a worthy winner. I also agree that the Jury’s vote is always legitimate, but that doesn’t mean it’s “correct”. You can be a legit winner of an NBA game where the refs makes a “wrong” game-deciding call. It’s part of the game.

@mat_glaser Generally fine with some level of coordination — surprised it was Kenzie’s board (it was, right?). Would have thought Liz could give verbal help/counting but not touch Kenzie’s stuff. Certainly physically touching puzzle pieces feels over the line.
