Richard Hatch had a great FTC answer back in season one when asked about qualities that got him through the game when he said self awareness. Jelinsky lacked that. Players are often inside their own heads and not paying attention to how other players are reacting to them. They don’t understand where they stand with other players, they’re focused on how they feel things should be going instead of how things are actually going. It’s not just young and overly eager super fans. Russell Hantz did it twice when he constantly beat his chest and declared that he was in charge and calling the shots. The juries were more impressed with the maneuvering done by Natalie, Sandra, and Parvati. Jake last season was so focused on a big move that he forgot to maneuver.
His 2 quits were the right decision imo. The problem is he handled them HORRIBLY. I don't for a second believe Q actually was suggesting to quit. It was probably a misunderstanding.
My guess is that Jalinsky "quit" in his mind right at the start of sweat. He saw how impossibly hard it was going to be and told himself he wasn't going to get it done. He complained throughout and Q probably finally asked him, do you want to quit.
That's how I read it. But from the exit interviews Jalinsky seems to be the least self-aware person in the universe so in his mind Q wanted to quit too.
Kenzie was literally following Tiffany around like a lapdog, they were looking together a few feet away from each other. Im sure she wasnt trying to be deceptive on day one .
After he quit two tasks in a row, and at the immunity challenge, saw his tribe reach the puzzle portion in last place, and possibly knowing that he already annoyed his tribemates by quitting the two times he volunteered, Jelinsky should have at least had some sense to maybe not step up on doing the puzzle with Jess, and let one of his other tribemates do the task with her. Maybe Jess might have been the 1st person voted out had Jelinsky backed down a bit from putting himself in the limelight there.
Why don’t you just talk through the episode and then point out what rules it applies to? Wouldn’t that be a more natural way of talking about the episode? Constantly saying we’ll get to that is pretty annoying and disrupts the flow of the conversation.
As a long time listener they Can’t do that bc they refer to pre game and exit interview content and secret scenes and social media post and so on and so on. This is a podcast where they talk through everything. Not just the episode
Quiet! They have a structure that works. Going through the rules in order is important. The audacity to think YOU can do their podcast better than them!
This podcast has never been an episode review show. There are other podcasts on this network that do episode reviews. This discusses the player voted out & what they did/didn’t do in the game.
Who is that poker player who likes survivor? I’m trying to imagine which famous poker player could play, like hellmouth, negranu I’d like to see how this well known person does based on previous poker players performances
Imo his choice to give in at the island and make the two other tribes happy was smart. He just shouldnt have told his tribe that he did that. He shouldve just said it was like previous seasons and that he risked his vote and lost it.
Yeah in my mind he out way too much stock in how betrayed Tevin or Maria would feel and how it could screw up his long term game. Like mate you’re already in hot water and I don’t think the other tribes are gonna judge too harshly. Day 26 only matters if you can survive the tribal on day 3 Maria would’ve come back looking dumb as hell, I don’t think she’d want that impression to stick and Tevin would’ve had to admit to failing his task as well.

All is again right in the world. So glad yall are back ❤
Thank you! Happy to be back after the couple-month Survivor break!

You both are great! And David, you're right! 🙂Your Traidar podcasts with Matthew are fantastic!
Thank you!!
My favorite podcast duo
Thank you!! ❤
I agree with Lindsay about the camp songs
I love Lindsay and I love her shirt!
Exactly. Who would ever throw glass on the beach. I was blown away. And can only guess it’s because he is only 22-24
The Andy Griffith Show IS on Paramount+ in the US.
Yeah, I found out afterwards that I was wrong to doubt Rob on that one. 😬
Kenzie was literally following Tiffany around like a lapdog, they were looking together a few feet away from each other. Im sure she wasnt trying to be deceptive on day one .
I bought my Swiftie daughter the Probst Eras shirt for Christmas when Mike Bloom referenced it on a podcast! Very fun!

👏🏻you have beautiful co-hosts!
Thank you!
Wait, you may have been talking about the other two… 😂
Im so happy for why blank lost
Thank you!!
Carmine is a legend

Because when someone is the 11th person voted out, doing an episode review doesn’t make any sense.
Due to how much more info is available and the type of players cast since Philippines I think Jalinzky is a bigger flame out than Zane.
Ooh that’s a tough call. Zane literally told everyone to vote him out as part of his supposed master strategy. It’s hard to be worse than that! 😂
Jessica was right…. It was bacon
I've said this many times, if you quit when you are saying you are strong, are you really that strong
Who is that poker player who likes survivor? I’m trying to imagine which famous poker player could play, like hellmouth, negranu I’d like to see how this well known person does based on previous poker players performances
Negreanu.
You guys are a bit too harsh. It’s not like he quit the game in general as what you’ve seen last season. He had to cut his losses when needed.
Imo his choice to give in at the island and make the two other tribes happy was smart. He just shouldnt have told his tribe that he did that. He shouldve just said it was like previous seasons and that he risked his vote and lost it.

Day 26 only matters if you can survive the tribal on day 3
Maria would’ve come back looking dumb as hell, I don’t think she’d want that impression to stick and Tevin would’ve had to admit to failing his task as well.
I can appreciate that they’re questioning what it means to be a ‘super fan’. But does it really matter if you didn’t win?!?
That guy is softer than tissue paper. That's why he lost.
Jessica is great. Wish David would stop yelling at us and also practice a little humility.
