Not Penny's Probst Not Penny's Probst

Back for another quick recap of the last few episodes of Survivor 41. We've got some twists to unpack, some moves to critique, and some challenges to judge. Matt searches for his own Survivor legacy in case Ricard ends up being the first player who is deaf in one ear to win the game before he does, and reminds us of how he was "almost" cast in a facebook version of The Real World.

SURVIVOR IS BACK and we're here to talk about the first three episodes of season 41. We're running some fantasy leagues that we have no idea how to score, but mainly just catching the vibe for all the new players and all the new twists that Probst has introduced after this long gap between seasons. We discuss our top picks for potential winners this season, let's see if anyone can call their shot.

Turns out scheduling a podcast is hard. This week we wrap up chat about our watch through Survivor: Panama with a live react to Shane’s FTC strategy, do a little sh*t talking on Manifest, and start a watch of The Mole. Jake made some major upgrades to our Survivor: LOST RPG and we turn it up post-merge. We’ll be back later this month after the season premiere of Survivor season 41!

This episode is (dare I say) a treat! Lyrsa Torres from Season 37 of Survivor (David vs. Goliath) joins us to talk about her experiences while playing Survivor and a lot of the psychological stress that follows you home after playing the game. We get some super secret naughty info that I don't think we're technically allowed to talk about so please PLEASE don't tell Jeff. She hasn't seen Lost, but we got her to put the pilot into her watch queue.

On our last episode, Adam McIlwee suggested that we check out Survivor: Panama since none of us had seen it, so we all did our homework and figure out who’s on team Shane. We also drop a little hint about an upcoming guest on the show before combing through some more Survivor 41/42 rumor news. It’s been a minute since we did a deep dive into LOST story beats, so we check in to see who loves love the most. In our Survivor: LOST RPG, 2 people go home even though only one of them was voted off, and a rat man with a rat plan stirs up some trouble by hiding a secret rat in the woods. notpennysprobst@gmail.com | Twitter/IG: @notpennysprobst

Our good friend Adam McIlwee (Wicca Phase Springs Eternal) joins us after he let us know that he just binged 20 seasons of Survivor. He talks about how Jeff is a game warden puppet master akin to an X-Men villain and that watching every UFC fight has now overtaken his Survivor marathon. We also revisit his experience watching LOST on network TV as it originally aired.



But first, we pick back up on our Survivor: LOST role playing game where a third person is voted off of The Island and players are starting to break down.
