Survivor 30: Episode 10 Recap/Analysis + Season 31 Preview with Jay Fischer

We saw another stellar display of character this week from what Jeff Probst called 'the best group of people I think we've ever had'. With Colin busy fraternizing with the enemy (/Ron Weasley), I invited our old friend Jay Fischer to diagnose the personality flaws of the strangers on our screen this season. How did Mike go from hero to zero (until he wins anyway) in one episode? Is Dan's extra vote really a Golden Ticket, and why should people in Great Glass Elevators not throw stones? And Will can blame the editing, but why is he still a bitch? All this, plus an hour long breakdown of the cast, metagame, and concept of Survivor 31, on this week's show, available below, here, or on iTunes here.

(Survivor 31 discussion starts at around 1:37:30)
