Make Others Better - Father of 2 amazing kids - Husband - Lawyer - Co-owner of #Packers - Huge Survivor fan - he/him
And Rizo playing the idol saves him 🤦‍♂️ (misread the whole thing)

So, Alex goes home no matter what there. #Survivor

But in that scenario Sophi does vote on the revote. She wasn’t part of the tie.

Yeah Blue Sophi stays bc we know about KiP. If she goes out without playing it, they never show it in the edit.

Fried chicken, like 2 episodes after they killed and ate a chicken. 🤷

Maybe they could’ve changed this one up a little? Unless this is the last chicken and the reward was they didn’t have to prepare it at all?

This has to be some kind of recognition that TAR doesn’t work as a consistently 90 min show. They need either a natural 30 min show to combine w Survivor/TAR or some new 90 min worthy compliment to Survivor.

Homer’s ’done and done’ from his negotiation (Bart trades a delicious doorstop for a crummy ole danish) is something I emulate all the time. The first time one of my kids does that to me I’ll know I succeeded as a parent.

Wonderful article, Mike! Really appreciate the links to your work here.

I think the first representation of AOC in a TV show was when Ginger Gonzaga played a congresswoman in Netflix’s Space Force.

Well then, in her first return she'd have to play a Hantz game and lose as a power goat, then redeem herself on 2 seasons of The Amazing Race, and THEN...

I like refried beans. That’s why I wanna try fried beans because maybe they’re just as good and we’re wasting time.

Just like Diamond Joe Quimby from one of my favorite Simpson’s episodes.

I swear seeing him blame immigrants when he’s caught in a scandal in the opening minute (& then Apu has to get citizenship) inoculated me from that BS scapegoating forever.

Rizzo and his idol would’ve been gone had MC pulled a Birbiglia… #Survivor #Survivor49

Had to review a legal review for 1 of these waivers before & rolled my eyes a lot. Part of the package said that the religion views people w/o beards as bad - or something like that. I thought, so how will this impact your ability to follow orders of beardless superiors?

So, if someone were to be on the wrong side of that vote and then come back and win, that might be BIG enough for a 50 invite…

Crud. I thought your Politics and Prose event was in Dec, or is it Nov? So I forgot and assumed incorrectly. I do need to preorder it though…😬

Is anyone pitching a Star Wars sequel trilogy in the replies?

I think Escape by @stephenfishbach.bsky.social from Survivor comes out in December. Sounds like a fantastic novel you might be interested in.

I’m very lucky that it’s airing on regular ABC. Got my antenna booster set up properly now to get that OTA signal.

It wasn’t even a finale. That was a wild way to ‘end’ it.

Doesn’t give me hope bc the creator is one of the guys writing the 2 new Avengers movies. So…yeah. Enthusiasm for those has dropped, too.
