Rob Sestrino back for our exit interview on a Monday after a busy Thanksgiving holiday.
Starting point is 00:01:39 I hope you and yours, everybody here in the U.S., had a great Thanksgiving holiday. I was traveling. Hope everybody here in the U.S. had a great Thanksgiving holiday. I was traveling. Hope everybody had a nice trip also if they were on the road. But here we are back at work just for a quick day back here for me before I head out to Houston for our live show this week. But we are going to have our exit interview with Kyle, who my mom was such a huge fan. She stopped me at Thanksgiving and said, I loved Kyle. He was such a classy guy.
Starting point is 00:02:07 He had such a great exit. Well, we're going to talk with him and find out everything that Kyle had going on here in Survivor 47. If you missed it over the holiday weekend, had a double dose of Survivors on the postgame show as Hunter and Tiffany from from survivor 46 join me for that and then survivor know-it-alls with steven from friday so all those are up plus i'll have
Starting point is 00:02:31 a club condo with bryce isaiah coming up on monday night but i see that we have kyle on the line let's go ahead and patch him in hey kyle what's going on rob sister nino uh very nice to be uh chatting with you first uh, how was Thanksgiving? I wasn't starving on a rock, that's for sure. Yeah, hopefully you weren't starving at all. Okay, Kyle, a lot to talk about here from your time on Survivor. Could you just tell us a little bit, how did you think Tribal Council
Starting point is 00:03:00 was going to go the other night? Exactly how it went. You know, when you're, when you play this game, like I did, and I've referenced it, you know, before going about 20 or, or you're giving 120% of yourself for the reasons why you're here. When I came into survivor, I knew that I was going to put my foot on the gas pedal and I wasn't pulling my foot off the floor until I seen God or a checkered flag. And I knew that that could be my ultimate demise of the game, or it was going to be my ultimate, like the power for the win of the game. And so, you know, it's exactly as I say, it's to be expected when you start going hard, like I do,
Starting point is 00:03:39 when you have people that are like folded over in the shelter, complaining of hunger and dehydration and getting lightheaded and can't stand up and I'm dragging firewood out and I'm catching your crabs and I'm going to get you water and I'm winning challenges and I'm going on rewards and all of these things. I'm coming home with this, this immunity. Seemingly every time I go after it, you know, it's, it gets to a point where it's like, if you don't take me out, you're making me question your game at this point because like i'm starting to not understand and that was what one of the things that happened during the soul vote i'm very happy that saul went home instead of me that night but when gabe took
Starting point is 00:04:15 that immunity that was that was the united tribes time to clip me then that's when that should have happened when that didn't happen that was like positive, concerning thing for me because I was like, why didn't you do this? And that made me feel like I had some serious momentum in the game. Yeah. Okay. Um, well, could you talk a little bit about that? Cause I wanted to ask you how, how did the Saul vote? Cause it feels like to me that the Saul vote changed the whole season. So how did that affect your game, the Saul vote? So Saul and I, I want to start with Saul is awesome, man. Like as many people have said before me,
Starting point is 00:04:54 Saul is an amazing person. And I had the opportunity to spend late nights, early mornings, like talking with Saul in such depths that it's like such personal levels that I haven't talked to even some of my friends this deep before. And so I connected good with Saul. But here's the thing. We're on Survivor.
Starting point is 00:05:11 And when I go to a challenge and I'm going against Gabe and I think I can beat Gabe and then Gabe beats me and gets an immunity around his neck and I don't have that safety power after I've been a physical threat, I'm back at camp now. Now I have to figure out who I could paint the target as, you know, a bigger threat than me. And the way that I did that was by painting me as the biggest threat. And so I went to Genevieve, Gabe.
Starting point is 00:05:37 I went to anybody that I felt like was anybody that I identified themselves as a threatening player or had been told that they were a threat and told them, Hey, do you understand that if I go home tonight, you're literally going to go home next. Like you can see this pecking order. The tribe has been threat hunting nonstop. And it's been very apparent. It's unanimous every single time. And so it's like, you understand, Genevieve, if I go home, you're gone. Gabe, if I go home and you don't have that necklace on, you're out. Like, there's no point in it. So you might as well keep me around.
Starting point is 00:06:11 And I tried to tell him, like, my social game has been weak, like, haven't been talking much, whatever, which I think is bunk. I think I had a great social game. I had wonderful conversations with so many. But what I wanted them to do is feel like something that they've been doing is going to have the upper hand on me in the end game. So yes, keep me, keep me around. Let me be a part of your Alliance. You know, be known that I will be a part, I will be a number for you the whole way through and let you feel confident enough that you can beat me in the end.
Starting point is 00:06:37 And that's when I will open up my book of recipes and show you the reason I'm going to take that million dollars instead of you. And so Genevieve, you know, she, she walked, she came to me and, and, um, gave some clarification and, and, uh, you know, recognized that motion that I put in and, and she, you know, came to me with Gabe and was like, Hey, you know, like, what do you think about taking out Saul? And I'm like, you see, I don't have this necklace on. Hell so like without without even a thought man I was like let's do it and they approached me by saying Saul was after me yeah which was like a wonderful way to approach me because I felt like Saul was like the mafia on the island like he's like good looking I thought you were in the SSA yeah that's what I thought but yeah sol was intimidating to me yeah he if you can make me
Starting point is 00:07:27 feel that way you can make anybody feel that way and he's a powerful player he was able to rap immediately he was able to see the future he he had a one he was good okay uh let me uh get to some other stuff uh because we got so much to get to what made you vote for teeny at this vote so teeny in the end game, they don't show it in before I go to the tribal council, but what I did is I threw a bait and a hook out. And by bait and hook,
Starting point is 00:07:53 I mean, you obviously seen earlier in the game, I referred to Caroline and Sue as Tweedledee and Tweedledum, two people alike in the game. And that was picked up very quickly. And that word came back to me very quickly. So I knew where that information leaked, right? So when it was coming to my end game, I gave somebody a piece of information, teeny. And before long, Caroline came back to me,
Starting point is 00:08:16 Kyle, did you say this? Yes, I did. There's my leak in the boat right there. I told Caroline, I said, Caroline, I promise you, I told teeny this information because I was waiting for you to come back to me. She's literally like spreading. Everybody's like, you know, every, every plan that anybody's had is open on the table because of her. So I was just, it was my tell Mary at saying, Hey, she's a liability to everybody's game. You can't talk strategy without your, your game being blown up. So just to add, I have my understanding.
Starting point is 00:08:44 So you only said Tweedledee and Tweedledum to Teenie and Teenie was then the person reporting. No, not what I told the Teenie. That was a different piece of information. Yeah. That Tweedledee and Tweedledum thing. That was shit that I told Rome because I was trying to like make people that I wanted to work with or like to keep around seem like they weren't important to me. Got it. You know, that's just, that's the way that I talk. I don't expect people to understand it. It's just what it is. Now, Kyle, I don't know if you know this, if you're aware, but I think that Sue maybe
Starting point is 00:09:15 didn't love spending time with you on the island. Did you get that impression when you were out there? No, not when I was out there. I knew that she didn't really care for me much. I knew that she didn't want to talk strategy with me. I knew that I rubbed her the wrong way from the very beginning when I voted against her with TK. And you know, that is what it is. She, she chose to hyper fixate on that, but she didn't, she didn't, she was not ugly to me on the Island. I want to make that very clear. If I needed something and Sue was able, she helped me. How did it feel watching some of that back on the season where she seemed to really not love what you were putting out there on the island?
Starting point is 00:09:57 That was that that's the alarming part, right? Because on the island, like I just said to my face, she was a happy go lucky girl. Like there was a one time where she shut me down before a challenge. I was trying to talk strategy just in case something happened. We could have a pregame. And she didn't like that. She just wanted good energy. I can respect that. But, you know, that's like I say, the concerning thing is, is that this person was nice to me, to my face on the island, and seemingly bad to me and her confessionals. So who knows? So you were part of the group that voted out Gabe.
Starting point is 00:10:30 You wanted Gabe to go out. What surprised you when you got back to camp after Gabe got voted out? You know, honestly, I wasn't really too surprised after gabe got voted out i was just trying to understand where to get my footing at this point because i've been working on you think what happened after gabe went home there's gonna be new me or genevieve next i mean the way i was looking at it was a very black and white i was looking at players individually i was giving them each a threat level and i was watching high looking at players individually. I was giving them each a threat level and I was watching high threat levels get knocked out repeatedly, almost as if it was a
Starting point is 00:11:10 domino effect. So I knew that if I didn't go hard and continue to win, it was going to be a problem. But you heard clear as day and I said it out of my own mouth. I thought I could beat Gabe in that individual immunity. It was a teamed effort to appoint that individual at the end of the challenge. It was a couple piece program. And Gabe beat me and took the necklace home for himself. I couldn't risk. Yeah, I don't know if you can answer this question, Kyle. How come Andy wrote down Genevieve's name?
Starting point is 00:11:37 I don't know. I don't think I can answer that. Okay. I don't know. Just to be fair. Yeah. I wasn't sure if, because he. I don't know. Just to be fair. Yeah. I wasn't sure if, because he said he was loyal to the soil to you. That's, that's, he was. And which is strange. I kind of, Andy's a very smart person. And I think he understood where Teenie was at. And I think that her running around and being that liability was a perfect masking for him in the game.
Starting point is 00:12:10 So I think going after Genevieve was the brilliant move to write her name down. But I talked to Andy, Genevieve, Sam, Caroline, all before my vote out. And I tried to get on the same page with all of them and just say, Hey, like, like y'all been with me for through thick and thin, like, you know, you got me, I'll do anything for you at this point. You know, even if you sacrifice me tomorrow, like this day, this transition point is what matters to me right here. And so I think that Andy was on the right track and I should have went for Genevieve as well, but I was letting the noise get to me.
Starting point is 00:12:43 And I was willing to throw my hell Mary at that noisy player instead of that silent killer in the corner. We saw during the season that to, you know, you're on Survivor, you're going to eat the food that's out there. Did you go back to being vegan once you came home from Survivor or did you fall off the wagon? I'm a vegetarian, so I do not eat meat at all. I do not do that. And so it was challenging for me on the island, but you've seen on the island, we deteriorated, man. I mean, shoot, you've seen how well I ate. Arguably, Kyle ate the best on season 47 out of anybody.
Starting point is 00:13:22 I still lost 17 pounds in 20 days, Rob. That's crazy. So it's like when you're out there with such a huge goal in mind and so much, I mean, I'm carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders is what it feels like. So yes, like when the opportunity comes for any kind of nourishment, even though it does make you question yourself at times, take it, dude, take it. How much of a surprise was it for you that you were such natural at the challenges? That popped my mind. I didn't think that I would be that good, honestly. But I've never hit that hard in my life, Rob. I've never ran that hard. I've never crawled that fast. I've never done anything like that, that hard in my life. And it was like something about
Starting point is 00:14:05 being vulnerable. And when my body clicked survival mode and I realized that it was like me, it was just me on all I had was me. And the only person that's been standing in my way was me. I pushed my ass out the way it was running like I never ran before. Yeah. And Kyle, you've talked so much about your family and everybody back home. What's been the response from all those people that you keep it a buck 20 for seeing you out there? the game is it created a safety net for families across the nation. And if not the world, and when I say, I do not, I do not say it lightly. I mean it very boldly. It's the safety net for families across the nation right now is incredible. My family doesn't need, I've never asked, I don't ask for help. If I need something, I'm going to figure it out or I'm just going to struggle until I fall so far. There's nowhere else to fall other than,
Starting point is 00:15:10 you know, you hit the bottom and stand back up. But what has happened is I'm seeing my community, I'm seeing other people from other communities, I'm seeing people come from out of state and gather and take part in watching the show together and, and, um, feeding one another and just taking care of one another and all with family in mind, none of it's negative. It's all very positive. And what that's done is it's, it's ignited this light in so many people. It's put this energy out. That's bonded so many of us together. It's, it's unbelievable. I never knew that that happened. I never thought I could be a person that could make that happen. But I'll tell you right now, Rob, that even though I didn't win that million dollars, what we've done out there is far beyond what I can even perceive.
Starting point is 00:16:06 Kyle, that was what a classy exit that that's, I'm going to remember that what he said. So you really, uh, you made a big impression, uh, in, in my family. Uh, my mom was a big Kyle fan. That's amazing. You know, and that I'm talking about, if we can't win the million dollars, it's those things that, that, that bit right there, Rob, what you just said is that ripple effect. We threw the stone and it hit the water. And now it created a ripple that's going to travel out indefinitely. It may get smaller over time. Nature's going to take its course, but we put the ripple in effect. And it's highlighted so much of that positive.
Starting point is 00:16:37 And right around Thanksgiving even. How cool to highlight. I didn't know it was going to work out like that. I didn't even know I was going to say that. I didn't even realize I was saying those things until I watched it back. And I was like, holy shit, Kyle, you just put a rock in your throat, buddy. Good job. All right. Kyle, I know you got to run. Thanks for making some time. All the best to you and the family outside the show. OK. Thanks, Rob. I appreciate you and your time. All right. Thanks a lot, Kyle. Take care. Bye.
Starting point is 00:17:03 time. All right. Thanks a lot, Kyle. Take care. Bye. All right, everybody. There you have it. There is Kyle. And yeah, it was a, I think also maybe my son Anthony's also favorite from this season. Talks about him a lot. All right. So there you have it. There's Kyle and Kyle trying to, you know, make everybody out into a threat. But then ultimately they came back around and said, oh, wait, actually you're the threat So ultimately it didn't work out, but seems like a super nice guy. Speaking of nice guys, Jordan Kalish is waiting to play this week in Survivor History with us and talk about everything that went on in episode 11 in Survivor History when we come back right after this.

Starting point is 00:19:27 We've got our This Week in Survivor history after our belated exit interview. Back here with us, the king of Survivor, Jordan Kalish. Yo, how you doing, Rob? How was the Thanksgiving? Good. Good. How's the Cyber Monday for you, Jordan? You get any deals?
Starting point is 00:19:46 So many deals. So many great things are going to be shipped to my house. I'm so excited. The worst part of shopping online is that then there's a lot of deal FOMO. You buy something and it's like, oh, now it's on sale? You got to be happy with the deals you get. You can't, you can't keep looking.
Starting point is 00:20:07 You can't keep looking. Once you have it, you stop looking and that's how you avoid it. You do with like, like, like plane tickets. Also you can, once you buy it,
Starting point is 00:20:14 just don't search. Okay. All right. Well, I've been taking on the patrons all season long on this week in survivor history and here with us, somebody who I speak to quite frequently on the Survivor Patron Q&A. Erica is here. Erica, how are you?
Starting point is 00:20:31 Hi, I'm doing well, Rob. Rusted up. Yes. Thanksgiving weekend. Okay. All right. You've recuperated? Yes. Okay. All right. Are you ready to talk some Survivor trivia? I am. I'm hoping that we can win one for the patrons. Win one for the patrons. Oh, I didn't think of it that you're playing for all the patrons, that they're all rooting for you.
Starting point is 00:20:54 I am. And yes, they can get behind this. You're doing it for the patrons. This is a win for the patrons. Yes. Okay. All right. Well, the patrons, they have not gotten a lot of wins this season. I know. I'm sad. It's been a pretty dominant run here for myself. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:18 What are you going to do? I don't know, but I'm going to try to beat you today. Okay. We'll see. Let's see how you're doing in terms of episode 11. Jordan, is it going to throw you off at all that we're going to have a two-part finale? That means we get a bonus week of Twish.
Starting point is 00:21:33 We do. We get the bonus Twish. I don't think it's going to throw me off. I am in the Brian Cohen school here where a two-part finale is just an episode before the finale and then a two-hour finale. Yeah, but you could do episode 13s and then incorporate all the finales so we don't normally get to do finale twish to be fair i i think the last couple seasons i've been skipping to the finales anyway
Starting point is 00:21:54 so i i don't really think it's better for your twish business i mean i per i prefer it we get to do uh an extra game we get to meet an extra patron that we wouldn't have met so the the week 13 patron is going to be like the bonus patron. All right. Erica, you know how this all works? I do. I do have one quick question for Jordan. So if I
Starting point is 00:22:15 don't get the question right, Rob can steal one or two points. I forget. He could only steal one. Whether you get the multiple choice or not, he could steal one point. That's the max. And, you know, we've been we've been eating turkey all week. It's time to talk turkey because we're going to the seasons. We have Exile Island, Micronesia, Redemption Island, Karamoan, 42 and 44. Erica, where are you taking us first?
Starting point is 00:22:47 Well, can you repeat? I'm sorry. He says it very fast, Erica. I thought that was slow. That was good. Exile Island, Micronesia. I think even if you're listening on 1.5 screen, you need like a stenography machine to keep up. I need a metronome to just keep me
Starting point is 00:23:02 in rhythm. Exile Islands, Micronesia. You're not making music. I need a metronome to just keep me in rhythm. Exile Islands. Micronesia. You're not making music. Yeah, but I could do it based on... I used to play music. I know how to count the beats of a metronome, Rob.
Starting point is 00:23:16 One of my many talents. So Micronesia. Redemption Island. Okay. Caramoan. So you got a little heademption Island. Okay. Caramoan. So you got a little head bob now. Okay. 42.
Starting point is 00:23:30 Got the head bob again. Yeah. And 44. 44. So those are your six seasons. Erica, where are we going first? I just made my husband watch this because he didn't want, he's never seen it.
Starting point is 00:23:43 Exile Island. Funniest season ever. I agree. What did he think of it? just made my husband watch this because he didn't want he's never seen it exile island funniest season ever i agree what did he think of it it's hilarious he thought it was funny okay it is a very funny season i've often called it the the funniest season in survivor history i i would i would stand by that up there up there with kagian and i think uh guatemala pretty funny too uh who Guatemala. Pretty funny, too. Who got to go on a spa reward by winning the touchy subjects chop challenge? OK, just I'm I'm pretty sure it was three because I think it was where Courtney got all the, you know, negative things. So. Spot and she took somebody, is that what happened? spa and she took somebody. Is that what happened?
Starting point is 00:24:31 I don't want to say it because then Rob's like, you know. So who got to go on the spa reward by winning the touchy subjects challenge? So it's just the person who won the challenge is what you're looking for. I'm going to go with Suri. It was the only challenge she's ever won. I think too. You're going for it with your gut. And I was actually going to throw that Suri. It was the only challenge she's ever won, I think, too. You're going with your gut. And I was actually going to throw that fact out. It is the only individual challenge that Suri has won in her Survivor career. I love Suri.
Starting point is 00:24:51 Makes sense that it's based on the social game. Yes. She's one of the best social players and strategic players in Survivor history. Erica, you have two points. Rob, you get the next question. Okay, I'm going to go with Survivor 44. All right, 44. Who won the last GASP immunity challenge in Survivor 44?
Starting point is 00:25:15 Classic Survivor challenge. Yeah, I know we talk about it more so in Survivor 43. Yes, that would have been too easy. Yeah. Okay. No, I got it. I think I conflated the two of them. Jam Jam is the winner of Last Gasp.
Starting point is 00:25:37 So Jam Jam's name was being thrown out in this episode by Danny. He did win immunity, so that's why there ended up being some votes on Carson. Instead, Rob, you get two points. We are tied going into the third question. And Erica, you get to choose the next season. Let's go
Starting point is 00:25:53 Micronesia. Alright, going to Micronesia. Who was sent to Exile Island during the Survivor auction, allowing them to find the re-hidden idol? Okay, let's think about this. Who was Micronesia?
Starting point is 00:26:13 It was during the auction. Oh, yeah. Who took all the money? Yeah. Natalie was like, duh, but you're going to be able to look for the idol again, right? Yes. Okay, so that had to be, he's a gymnastics instructor. His name is Jason Siska?
Starting point is 00:26:35 It is Jason Siska, but you don't have to get the last name. That is correct, Erica. Is he a gymnastics instructor? I didn't remember that, but I believe Erica. I think Erica knows her stuff. Yeah, you don't need to say what his job is. I'm sorry. That's how I remembered his name.
Starting point is 00:26:51 Sorry. Of course, in the same episode, he would get voted out with the idol, so it didn't last long. Rob, you get to choose the next question. I'm going to go with... How about 42? I'm going to go with, um, how about 42? All right.
Starting point is 00:27:10 42. Our other new era season, who was the knowledge is power advantage unsuccessfully played on in this episode's tribal council. So not the person who used it, who did they essentially mafia investigate so i believe it was i believe dre asks mike uh if he has an idol so dre Drea asks Mike, that is correct. Rob, you get two points. Yes. Uh, Mike did have the idol, but little tricky boy, Omer was able to, was able to tip him off and he, he, he got to hold onto the idol until the next episode. So that is correct. Uh, this is also the
Starting point is 00:27:59 same tribal council, uh, where, where Lindsay could have gone out on the do or die, but she survived the Monty Hall problem. So we are tied four to four. The stakes are high. There's two more questions left. Both of you in good position here to get the win. Erica, are we going to Redemption Island or Karamoan? I'm trying to decide.
Starting point is 00:28:19 Let's. Two legendary seasons. Could be headed to the tiebreaker also. We could. That's going to be scary. Let's go Karamoan. All right. Survivor Karamoan.
Starting point is 00:28:35 There has been a lot of talk about three-way tied votes this season based on Survivor 47's revelation that a voted-for player can vote in a re-vote if the other player lost their vote. One of these three-way ties occurred when Malcolm was voted out of Caramoan. Which two players did he tie with on the initial three to three to three votes? So there were three players who received three votes. One of them, you know, is Malcolm.
Starting point is 00:28:53 You need to get the other two. Okay. Malcolm. And it had to be one of the other guys in that alliance. It was either Eddie or the used car salesman. He's not a used car salesman. I'm sorry I keep mentioning professions. What was his –
Starting point is 00:29:16 Might be a gymnastics instructor. No, no, no, no, no. They were calling him a used car salesman. So it's Eddie or Reynolds, and then it's got to be somebody from the favorites, the... And... It's a pretty hard question, I have to say. Not an easy question. This may be the hardest on the quiz.
Starting point is 00:29:39 One more time. I'm sorry. I just want to know what exactly I'm answering. Sorry. So there was a three-way tie. Malcolm was the one voted out of the game. Which two players did he tie with on the initial three to three to three votes? So you're looking for two players who received three votes on the initial vote. Okay. I think I have the favorites person and I'm going to guess on if it's Eddie or Reynolds. I'm going to go Reynolds and Andrea.
Starting point is 00:30:06 Reynolds and Andrea Belkey. If you're right, you really prove that you know their stuff. And you do, Erica. Erica, two points. Wow. Congratulations. You have a perfect score for that of six. Yeah, I agree.
Starting point is 00:30:19 That's always like Sherry as the other person. So Sherry was not if we had gone to the multiple choice, Sherry was not even one of the fake answers. Eddie and Brenda were the two people that were involved in the multiple choice. That would have been incorrect. Yeah, it could have been Sherry. So the multiple choice would have been you gave four names
Starting point is 00:30:39 and then... That's what I always do. It was Eddie and Andrea, Eddie and Brenda. But you have to pick two of them? You have to pick two. So Eddie and Andrea, no, no, no. It would have was Eddie and Andrea, Eddie and Brenda. But you have to pick two of them? You have to pick two. So Eddie and Andrea. No, no, no. It would have been Eddie and Andrea, Eddie and Brenda,
Starting point is 00:30:49 Reynolds and Andrea, Reynolds and Brenda. Okay. So each correct answer would have had two names. Okay. You've been around the block before. You know how this is done. Well, I was surprised. I thought that you were just going to give four names
Starting point is 00:30:59 and then two of them were right. No, that would be insane. Insanity. All right, Rob, you need to get this question right. We are going to Redemption Island. Philip Shepard claimed to have a premonition from his great-great-grandfather, Jessam Herring, which allowed him to find his pink shorts,
Starting point is 00:31:16 which had been hidden in the previous episode by which player? Who hid his pink shorts? I believe that was Julie. Julie Wolfe, if you're right. We are going to the tiebreaker. who hid his pink shorts. I believe that was Julie. Julie Wolf. If you're right, we are going to the tiebreaker. If you're wrong,
Starting point is 00:31:30 Erica is going to take it home for the patrons. And for the time being, we have a tie because that is correct. We are tied six to six. So what we have done in the past with the tiebreaker,
Starting point is 00:31:41 I believe when it was episode eight, we did the eighth place players. It wouldn't make sense to go backwards to the 11th place players because none of them would have been voted out uh this week in survivor history so this uh this is kind of a week where we've been at different points in different seasons you had this prepared you had this prepped already yes i mean i have to give it up for the self-proclaimed king of survivor because i do have to i have to pull up the randomizer. But I do I did have the the idea in place just in case we were we were tied.
Starting point is 00:32:12 We are going to go with the first jurors because there are plenty of seasons of this week's Survivor history where this would this episode starts the jury. So more of the newer seasons were already into the jury at this point. But we're going to go with the first juror. I feel like that's something that is possible to remember without being too easy or too hard. The mayor of Ponderosa. Mayor of Ponderosa. So I am going to the number randomizer. We're going seasons one to 45 and we're starting with Erica. No 46.
Starting point is 00:32:43 No. Oh yeah. One to 46. You're right. I don't know why I said. Oh, yeah. One to 46. You're right. I don't know why I said 45. But okay. One to 46. Erica, we get to start with the very first season. Survivor Borneo. Who was the mayor of Ponderosa, the first juror?
Starting point is 00:32:55 First juror in Survivor history. Okay. I have to talk this through, honestly. Yeah, you're on. It's a long time. We know... And do I get a steal on these in the tiebreaker? No.
Starting point is 00:33:09 If Erica is wrong... You asked a rules question. I can ask a rules question. If Erica's wrong, you'll get your own season. I know who the first survivor of the Amazon is. It's Borneo.
Starting point is 00:33:26 You said she gets it wrong. I'm going to get my own season. Okay, very good. Very good. We're also on all stars. This is a guess. God darn it. Why the first one?
Starting point is 00:33:44 I'm sorry. I do apologize For the language That wasn't so bad It's not what I really wanted to say I don't think I'm right But I'm going to go with Greg Greg Buess
Starting point is 00:33:58 Rob, is she right? She's right She's right, Erica You get the point You were at seven If Rob gets the next one wrong He is going to be... That was a stab in the dark.
Starting point is 00:34:07 A shot in the dark. All right, Rob, you are going to go with season 21. We're going to Survivor Nicaragua. Hard one. Really, the middle is really my weakness. Yes, I feel like that's a lot of people's weakness okay the first juror well i can talk it through as well um was it that dirt squirrel alina or
Starting point is 00:34:38 was there somebody that came after did alina vote at the final tribal council um I'm gonna say that the mayor of Ponderosa was somebody who I believe was mentioned early in this podcast I'm gonna say Brenda was the mayor of Ponderosa. No, I'm wrong.
Starting point is 00:35:06 Brenda Lowe was a juror on that season. She was the third juror. You should have gone with your gut, Rob. It was the Dirt Squirrel, Lena Wilson. Nobody remembers freaking Alina. Other than her being called the Dirt Squirrel. You said her name. The most forgettable survivor contestant of all time.
Starting point is 00:35:25 She was my winner pick. You said her name. The most forgettable survivor contestant of all time. She was my winner pick. You said her name, so clearly you remember that she was a person. But Erica wins the game seven to six. It's not always the case where the first,
Starting point is 00:35:33 the first, that the merge boot is also the first juror. But she was. Alina was. So, Erica, congratulations. The streak is over. Rob is eight and three
Starting point is 00:35:41 on the season, and you are going to take home a brand new crown. Well done, Erica. You deserve the win for getting that Survivor Caramo in question right. That was a tough one. Thank you. I would not have gotten that one either.
Starting point is 00:35:52 Oh, I think you would have. No, I would have said Sherry. Really? I don't know. I guess if I had the multiple choices, maybe I would have got to it, but I don't know. I think Sherry did get some votes at the next Tribal Council. Give me another season. Give me another season in the randomizer. Let think Sherry did get some votes at the next tribal council. Give me another season. Give me another season in the randomizer.
Starting point is 00:36:06 Let's see who you get here. We're going to go to season 25, Philippines. Philippines, first member of the jury was an eight-person jury. I know. Okay. I know Jeff Kent is on the jury. Is he the mayor of Ponderosa? I think is he the mayor of Ponderosa
Starting point is 00:36:25 or is R I think RC is the mayor of Ponderosa it was RC like Kalina also my winner pick and I guess I don't do so well with my winner picks one more mayor of Ponderosa let's see how you do on this one that's why the randomizer is so important we're going to 10 Palau
Starting point is 00:36:41 Kobe it is Kobe. I don't even have to Wikipedia that one. I always do just to double check. But yeah, Kobe was the first person voted out after the whatever you call the merge on Palau. Okay. Tribe Dissolve. Erica, what's your level of love for a verbal rebus puzzle?
Starting point is 00:37:03 I do like them a lot, but I feel like Jordan may read them too quickly so I can't keep up my thought. Would a metronome help, do you think? I don't know. Like, I have a little piece that I've been scratching things down as we're playing, and I just want to scratch it
Starting point is 00:37:20 down and word it out because I never get the chance. Okay. Alright. So we're going with a slow verbal rebus today. Okay. We're going to really, really make it last. Okay. So Guatemala Cindy could have given these to everyone, but chose to keep one for herself. Okay.
Starting point is 00:37:41 Minus the last, Wait, this... Why is it minus? It shouldn't be minus. It should be plus. So it should be plus the last three letters of the last name of the first player
Starting point is 00:37:54 who was ever rocked out in Survivor history. They went to rocks and this person was the first person who got voted out. It's the last three letters of his last name. This was a stretch.
Starting point is 00:38:06 It is funny. Okay, we're going to go to the next one. Plus, so we're all pluses so far. Okay. The survivor professor who got onto Survivor. Okay. Minus the social media site where we all used to live tweet Survivor,
Starting point is 00:38:24 but now we're all on Blue Sky. That's also a stretch. I think it was an easier way to get there. Yeah, probably. It could have been like Xander's first name or something. Just gave it away, but that's fine. Plus, Blank's tweaked back turned out to be all right after getting medevaced from David versus Goliath. Okay.
Starting point is 00:38:43 Oh. Plus, the first letter of guatemala's pancake dancer first name of the first letter of the first name all right so all right erica okay i don't know it all right so cindy could have given these i wasn't sure if it was a truck or a car uh but i didn't think anybody's name starts with truck uh except for joel yeah uh then uh jordan really stretches to get us to the last three letters of pascal english yeah i could have got with the last three letters of my last name too and then the survivor one world professor is uh max minus the x from x.com so we have karishma karishma edna ma is right there though i know i've used edna ma too many times on this verbal
Starting point is 00:39:33 and then uh pat if you have a one syllable last name yes past week backs all right thank you and then also very random we go to lydia to Lydia for the L of... Is that surprising that I went to the Guatemala contestant for the L? Are you doing the pancake? Last week, I danced to celebrate my victory. Now, I don't get to dance. You get to dance this week. Yeah, that should be a requirement.
Starting point is 00:39:57 When you win twists, you have to dance. Yes. So who do we have, Rob? Yes, Karishma Patel. Karishma Patel, congratulations to Karishma on the birth of her daughter. Two weeks ago at this point. Erica, as a Ravens fan, did you want to do the Ray Lewis dance to celebrate? No, I'll leave that up to Gabe.
Starting point is 00:40:13 Okay. All right. But I will tell you, Jordan, you threw me off because I knew what kind of car Cindy got. So, you know. What kind of car? It was a Torrent. Yeah, Torrent. But that's a car was a torrent. Yeah, a torrent. But that's a car. That's not a truck, right? No, it was a torrent.
Starting point is 00:40:32 I remember. I remember this for some reason. I remember stupid things. Sorry. It was a big part of her story on that season. So, Cindy and Mindy could have been a thing on a future Blood vs. water season. We would love to see it at some point.
Starting point is 00:40:47 All right. So Erica, do you have anything you want to promote? Tell people to check out? You know, I do a lot of volunteer work outside of my work. The Hartford County Humane Society, it's local to where I live here in Maryland. So check it out. There's a lot of adoptable animals there. We do a lot of fundraising.
Starting point is 00:41:10 That's my extracurricular. So shop or no, adopt, don't shop. Yeah, definitely adopt. As someone who's had many great rescue dogs, I can co-sign that, Erica. You can find me a blue sky at Jordan Kalish, X at Jordan Kalish. That's now part of the verbal rebus for some reason. Instagram, you could go to my viewing parties is all, I'm all over the place, Rob. Okay. All right. And speaking of all over the place, I'm about to hit the road again
Starting point is 00:41:39 to go to the hometown of the verbal rebus subject, Karishma Patel. That is Houston, Texas. I'll be back on the road to meet with a bunch of our patrons and everybody else in attendance on Wednesday night. So if you're coming out to Houston, I will see you there. For everybody else,
