Blindsided

Nobag is the merge tribe we were thinking of! So-called "Survivor Pete" and "Producer Jim" (played fast and loose with the edit on this one) breakdown the jigsaw puzzle of Episode 7 and 8, and we think there are a few corner pieces still in the box.

Survivor is back and so are we! And so are the players? Sure, the seasons in Fiji are all kind of the same, but we swear we've seen some of these people before...Ah, who are we kidding -- we're as addicted to Survivor as Probst is to adrenochrome (we'd wither without it)! Enjoy our recap of the Survivor 43 premiere and if you look like Cassidy drop Pete a line.

Guest host Brian rejoins Survivor Pete and Producer Jim to dish on some of what they (Jim) hated but mostly laud what they loved about the glorious finale to Survivor 42. SPOILERS ABOUND, so beware. Brian and Liv's virtual Survivor league (and hilarious breakdowns) The Society of Camera Operators article on producing Survivor The 2001 blog post on the four archetypes of Survivor finalists Survivor Pete's audition tape for Season 43

Presented without comment and minimal editing. Just sit back and enjoy our thoughts on the best Survivor episode in a long time.

The guys solve misogyny and racism and also talk about Episode 9 and 10 of Survivor 42 (for Ep10 skip to 40:40).

The Gang Goes to a Sox Game and Tries to Record a Pod After (on Episodes 6/7 and 8 -- skip to 35:45).

Mispronunciations, mixed metaphors, and malapropisms abound as Pete and Jim dust off their microphones and break down the first five episodes of Survivor 42. Ep. 2 - (45:27) Ep. 3 - (56:31) Ep. 4 - (1:18:00) Ep. 5 - (1:39:24)

The guys let their feelings fly on Survivor 41's finale and the season as a whole. Thanks for listening everyone -- we'll be back in the new year with a Rewind on Season 8. Merry Christmas!

Ahh, the vicissitudes of Survivor (look that one up, Pete). The guys discuss their favorite episode of the season so far and what's to come on next week's three hour, sure-to-be twist laden finale.

Survivor Pete and Producer Jim try to make heads or tails of a Survivor season that doesn't seem to know where it's going. If you're a listener who's actually been enjoying this season please write in and let us know you exist.

Apologies for the poor microphone quality and lateness - sometimes life, uh, finds a way to get in the way. We'll be back to our regularly scheduled programming next episode. Thanks for the memories Shan!

Survivor Pete and a particularly moody Producer Jim break down the latest episode of a Survivor season that's steadily outpacing expectations. You'll notice I take a long time stumbling through the logic of Shan splitting the vote, so I'm leaving a note here-mostly for myself for next episode-to explain why it was actually a savvy move: Shan using her extra vote advantage and then splitting it between Heather and Naseer was the most risk averse move possible (short of playing the idol ...

Not the most enlightened episode from Pete and Jim today, but then again it wasn't the most thrilling Survivor episode either. Has anyone else been disappointed with the latest quality from Chipotle?

Day 14! The merge tribe is here and the die is cast. Pete and Jim breakdown Survivor 41's latest barn burner -- my favorite Aftershow episode yet.

Liv returns from a long hiatus to cohost this recap the MERGER episode with Survivor Pete. We'd also like to apologize to the surprising number of listeners who reached out wondering about last week's episode -- Producer Jim is currently suspended indefinitely for "accidentally" deleting the tapes and an investigation into the malfeasance is underway. If you're that special someone who actually reads the description, please go the extra inch and leave a rating/review for the podca...

CBS must listen to this highly acclaimed audio production because they returned to exactly the type of entertainment we asked for in our last episode. The power of podcasting.

This episode is sponsored by Warner Bros and HBO Max. Pete and Jim break down Episode 3 of the first Survivor season they didn't think deserved a subtitle, the contents of which are easily compared to fecal matter.

The crew recaps the second episode of Survivor's extravagantly titled forty first season. If those other two idols are never found, does Xander lose his vote for the rest of the game? Do it, CBS! You won't.

Survivor Pete and Producer Jim are back to recap the long-awaited premiere to Season 41 of CBS's Survivor.
