S36E06 A Ring Is A Thing
by
Nick Wester
It doesn’t happen often, but, when it does, it’s suuuch a nice feeling to see the right person get voted out. Just as they have begun to outstay their welcome and outlive their entertainment value, quite often a player will become a goat and be dragged along to the end. But not this day! We […] More

S36E05 In Which Nick Adopts Donathan
by
Nick Wester
A(nother) Tribal Shakeup occurs, but is it enough to shake these players’ loyalties to the tribes they were arbitrarily assigned to several weeks ago? Given the format of that question, the answer should be fairly obvious… What player that we like will fall victim to the strategy of voting out everyone who has a different […] More

S36E04 Clear Vision, Clear Mind, Can Get Voted Out
by
Nick Wester
Brian curses another player, dooming them to an early ouster. We break down what happened, and look forward to the eventual merge. Will it be next week? Probably not, that’s going to be another shuffle because New Malolo suuucks… More

S36E02 Natty Bumppo
by
Nick Wester
Technical difficulties continue! We did our best to edit around them, but Comcast is still being a real jerk and making recordings difficult. Sorry about that. Anyway, is Domenick growing on us? For at least two, yes! Guess who the third is! Also, yes, I know, Last of the Mohicans was James Fenimore Cooper and […] More

S36E02 In Which Movements Are Made
by
Nick Wester
We run smackdab into a paradox as we all agree that this was a great episode of what’s shaping up to be a good season, but don’t really have anything particular to say about it… Luckily there was a tribal shuffle and we all came to really appreciate Wendell’s furniture. Plus, in Fantasy Survivor, teams […] More

S36E00 GHOST ISLAND DRAFT! BOO!
by
Nick Wester
This season has a silly name, and we kinda sorta had a silly time drafting. Each of us took a different strategy, but Nick’s strategy of not doing any research and just picking the people from LA is probably the worst. Plus we make some bets, including a terrible one on Andy’s part! Ghost Island […] More

S35E14 Finally Finale
by
Nick Wester
Survivor: Heroes vs Healers vs Hustlers has finally reached a conclusion and we have a winner, but not without controversy as many feel the change to the Final Four may have thrown the game out of balance. We get into this as well as discussing who we missed, who played a really good game, and […] More

S35E13 A Short One!
by
Nick Wester
The penultimate episode of Survivor: Heroes vs Healers vs Hustlers comes at an inopportune time as we all want to watch Star Wars, but Andy and Brian are able to resist the lure and talk about who will win, who is a goat, and what happens if people actually do the smart thing and get […] More

S35E10 Nick Is Wrong About A Thing
by
Nick Wester
We gather around the Skype fireside once again to make bold claims which occasionally turn out to be right, but quite often are wrong. Today we go so far as to check the tape in real time and finally find out who is wrong this time (HINT: It’s in the title). Lauren and Devon hatch […] More

S35E09 Blame Thanksgiving
by
Nick Wester
Sorry we’re late, folks, but the holiday weekend was busy with family and running and shopping and all sorts of things. But we’ve got our recap of episode 9 out just in time for episode 10 tomorrow! More

S3508 Math is Hard
by
Nick Wester
Boy did we spend a lot of time trying to figure out numbers in this one… Look, we’re social science people, not math people. A family-style spaghetti dinner gives one player an advantage, while leaving another on the outside looking in, plus Joe goes too far. Not cool, man. More

S35E07 TIME TO PLAY THE GAME
by
Nick Wester
It took two hosting platforms and two sets of headphones but we faced down technical troubles like the Heroes and Hustlers faced down the Healers to vote out yet another one of Nick’s players. The merge has happened and the game is finally beginning for real-real, not for play-play. More
