Survivor 24: Drop your buffs



It may be almost as late to the party as Tarzan is, but this week's recap is finally here. We dish all the dirt (yes, dirt) on last Wednesday's episode, assess our predictions from last week, and speculate about what the various power players will and should do in the episodes to come. Listen to it here or on iTunes here.

Survivor: Brian Corridan speaks



Brian Corridan joins us today to reminisce about Survivor: Guatemala. He gives us his take on the strange editing of the season and reveals what was really going on beneath it. He airs his views on Danni, Rafe, Stephenie, and others, and explains why he thinks his season and its cast have been so widely ignored. He also offers a spirited defence of 'old-school' Survivor, in his usual compelling manner. If you want to know the truth about the 'forgotten' Survivor season, go ahead and listen! You can find it here or on iTunes here.

In his typical articulate manner he takes us through his 31-day rollercoaster ride in the South Pacific, giving us the lowdown on everything that happened from his perspective. You can listen here and on iTunes here.

Survivor 24: Merge preview featuring Kos

Today we are joined by Amanda Kimmel hater and RHAP alumnus Kos to look at the state of the game going into the merge. Who has the best chance of winning the game at this point? Who will emerge victorious in the inevitable Kim-Jonas power struggle? How would the potential winners of this season compare to those of past seasons? And how long will it be before Kat gets a restraining order against Colin; does she even know what a restraining order is? All this, and more, on this week's show, which you can find here and on iTunes here.

We will hopefully be recording later in the week with John Cochran, and a TAR-focused podcast should be up early next week as well. Until then, enjoy the show, and keep updated by subscribing on iTunes and/or following us on Twitter.

Drop your assertiveness into this lodestar and get ready for an hour of strategy discussion, poor jokes, and trenchant questions about the authenticity of Salani's chests. Listen here or on iTunes here.
