Hi guys I just read through the thread! I run a nightly recap podcast. I know most people love and wait for RHAP (I do at least) but if you are looking for something in the mean time -

I've listened to them. I'm so obsessed with the show and the lack of info about it is frustrating.
Not sure I agree with everything you have said but I enjoy it all the same! Good luck with it. I think you are doing well.

Here's a question: Will you guys address who the best players are and give Phoebe her just recognition? (Not saying you haven't, but people don't seem to get how well she has done in a few short days)
Rob and Stephen were debating whethe Phoebe had the best 3 episode run of any survivor. I don't know if that's true because I don't know all the history but they agree that she is definitely a star.
I'm hoping she can lay low going forward to the merge but it seems unlikely because she wants to be in control.
I think Phoebe hasn't been given her due and if she hadn't been swapped or hadn't been stuck with Rohan and Kat, two players who never belonged on survivor, she would be running things. She would be my winner pick if she was on US survivor. (She might not win but she would go far.)
She's the best player by far but she will probably go the way of all the good strategists this season.

Also: no one has mentioned the high number of guys going home (6/9)which is highly unusual. But the thing is, the guys who have gone were very terrible players(one of them I can't even recall.) Probably the worst assortment of guys on any survivor season. So I'm not sure that means anything. What do you think? Do you agree these have been a bunch of the worst male players ever?

I'm hoping for an end of season podcast that runs through all the bad plays of this season because the list is already long! Not knocking the season because I love every minute of it!
Here's my list:
1. Des outwits himself into not contributing to the tribe from day one.
2. Bianca tries to start making moves at the first tribal council she attends when all she had to do was let what's his name the old guy in the red suit quit. What's his name quits anyway, saving Kat who had been voted out from an entirely different tribe.
3. Barry inexplicably refuses to agree to an alliance yet knows to vote out Nick. Thinks he played with honor.
4.aKylie idiotically wears her idol to tribal council. Nick sets up a wacky split vote that ends up 2-2-2. No one is dumbfounded by this.
4b. Tegan votes herself out by not flipping to vote for Nick.
5. Kat votes out Rohan without ever comprehending he was her key to survival in the game.
6. Rohan votes himself out by not voting for Sue and forcing a tie he had a decent chance at winning.
7. Andy...
