Why ___ Lost: Survivor 49 Ep 11 Sophie said in her last words, “I'm taking it as a little bit of a compliment that I was a big threat to everybody's game.” Meanwhile, Sage said, “She did this to herself.” In a way, they're both right. But those statements definitely don’t fully explain what happened! Even if Sophie was a threat, there are a lot of threats! Plus, other people made decisions based on Sophie's actions and it's questionable whether they were right. David Bloomberg and Jessica Lewis dig into all of this. Because at RHAP, we know Survivor, and we know Why Sophie Lost.

Purple Pants Podcast | The Amazing Race 38 Episode 11 Recap: To be continued Brice and Brooke are back at the Pit Stop to break down all the chaos from The Amazing Race Season 38, Episode 11 — “The Can't Can't.” The final four teams touch down in Paris ready to fight for a spot in the finale, but this leg wastes no time testing nerves. From high-energy kicks at the legendary Moulin Rouge to precision-heavy tasks that demand patience under pressure, racers are pushed to their absolute limit. One wrong step, one missed detail, or one confusing clue could send any team spiraling. As tensions flare, confidence cracks, and the clock becomes everyone's worst enemy, partnerships are truly put to the test. With Brooke and Brice on the mic, expect laughs, unfiltered honesty, and all the frantic Pit Stop energy as we break down who found their rhythm — and who felt like they just can't can't keep it together. You can also watch along on Brice Izyah’s YouTube channel to watch us break it all down https://youtube.com/channel/UCFlglGPPamVHaNAb0tL_s7g LISTEN: Subscribe to the Purple Pants podcast feed  WATCH: Watch and subscribe to the podcast on YouTube SUPPORT: Become a RHAP Patron for bonus content, access to Facebook and Discord groups plus more great perks!
