  7. Survivor Season 51: The Castaways

    Season 3, Episode 1

    Show notes

    In alphabetical order by first name, Alexis and Beth go through all the Survivor 51 cast members, breaking down who's got "it," who's in trouble, and who did a dumb pose for their promo pic.

    Plus, Alexis explains (non-verbally) the difference between geeks, nerds, and dweebs, a plan is hatched to challenge Kilby to a game of Blood on the Clocktower, and they speculate as to whether a cast of 21 means an early Exile Island journey or if it means last one to the beach gets shot.
