I'm a big fan of Drew, and he just shines in this interview. He's funny and humble. He has great self awareness, and despite being very intelligent, doesn't have a huge ego. More of a fan now than ever 🤓
I totally agree on everything Miranda said about Drew. I did not think he was arrogant, but just the opposite. Very excited to be there and that he was winning. Who wouldn't be?
Drew's transparency and the quick and consise way he answers questions is so satisfying ! The way all three of you interacted is a master class in communication. Thank you so much !!!
Drew's intelligence and sense of humor is so infectious. A survivor alum mega star in the making and looking forward to hopefully seeing him on many more rhap podcasts in the future. AND why not a third know-it-all for next season? 💯
I don't think Drew makes 50, but I liked him and could see him playing and winning a second chances with a Cochran type arc. Drew was very interesting in that he is the 1st villainous "nerd" which made him very interesting imo.
Drew I was watching you on Jeopardy and I said I've seen this guy somewhere, but where? Then when Ken mentioned Jeff and Survivor, the lightbulb went off in my head, that is where I saw you duh, lol. Congratulations on your wins, looking forward to seeing you in Tournament of Champions.
Thank you for doing this podcast! I was on Jeopardy back in April (though I did not make it past my first game 🥲) and am a long-time RHAP listener. Everything Drew said about the difficult physical aspect of the game and the buzzer is on point, which is why it's even more impressive that Drew crushed it and went on an amazing streak! Excited to watch him in the ToC next year ☺
@veronicatabor4207 congrats on your appearance! How much time did you spend training the buzzer? I've always wondered if people are taking any performance enhancers to get an edge in response time. I saw a lot of Adderall use and such during my years playing high level strategy games.
I would say the only one is Drew’s archetype actually is Carson and I would pick Drew to come back every day of the week. MAAAAYBE Evie but I’d say they’re different. Omar is different than all of them to me and I think there’s room for both Omar and Drew.
I feel like Drew comes across as much more self-assured than Carson. Outside of being young, book smart individuals who are strategically inclined and are not afraid to express their emotions I don't see much correlation.
I do see Drew and Carson in the same archetype, as well as Charlie. All three were the “narrator” of their seasons. Obviously they all have their differences, but are in the same category overall. Drew is the most entertaining speaker of the 3 but possibly the worst of the 3 as far as social gameplay
As a homeschooling family, my kids are going to be so excited for the Protobowl shout-out! We play every day (at the middle school level 😂), and it's a lot of fun.

Love Drew ❤ . Man survivor has the best community
This was a lot of fun. Maybe the game show circuit is the route for Drew. “The Chase”, “The Floor”, “DONDI”!
It’s been a min since I’ve physically watched the pod- did rob get glasses or is it just for the bit
they're eyestrain glasses, he's had them for a few weeks
"it's a large one" -Drew Basile
Ayy quizbowl shoutout!
Does anyone else remember when Ken Jennings used to be rumored for Survivor cast lists?
Drew is so so funny
Ugh why is drew so hot 😅
