Andrea Boehlke Talks Survivor 50 Ep 2 Today, Rob Cesternino sits down with three-time Survivor player Andrea Boehlke for this week's recap and strategic breakdown. Rob and Andrea dive deep into the legendary season, tackling major moments like tribe swaps, returning legends, and the evolving dynamics that keep Survivor 50 full of surprises. From Cirie's masterclass in social strategy to Joe and Rick Devens' tense alliance talks, this episode unpacks the twists and relationships that shape the latest Survivor chapter. Rob and Andrea start by comparing Survivor 50's cast to past returning player seasons, wondering about the casting decisions—especially the lack of contestants from the Survivor “20s” era. They revisit the fate of Savannah and RizGod, the tough spot for winners returning back-to-back, and the risk of being a recent champ. Andrea shares inside perspective on Cirie's gameplay style and the value of building trust, noting Cirie's collaborative moves with Ozzy and Emily Flippen at camp. They break down the new swap, how old-school friendships and modern alliances react to fast-moving tribe changes, and the impact of off-Island relationships on in-game trust. Later, the Billie Eilish Boomerang Idol gets its moment—Andrea reflects on her own idol loss tale, and Rob wonders what happens when advantages fall into the wrong hands. How Cirie and Ozzy build on their Game Changers history to anchor early-game power Joe's anxious gameplay and how different tribe members (like Devens and Christian) manage high-maintenance allies Savannah's tough return as a recent winner and why going back-to-back on Survivor rarely ends well The Billie Eilish Boomerang Idol twist and Survivor's tradition of wild advantage mechanics Funny camp moments, including Christian handling a bathroom emergency and how returning players adapt to survival life With tribe swaps rattling alliances and old wounds bubbling up, Rob and Andrea ask: Will pre-existing bonds matter more than new loyalties, or will the game's fast pace force unexpected blindsides? How will players like Cirie, Ozzy, and Coach balance trust with survival as numbers dwindle?

Survivor legend Jenna Lewis-Dougherty joins The Exclusive for an exit interview following the Survivor 50 premiere. Jenna doesn't hold back on why she felt like the "odd man out" from the second she landed, revealing the "FaceTime and Zoom" pre-game culture that left her playing from the bottom. She breaks down exactly why she believes Christian Hubicki is the true "chess master" of the Cila tribe, explaining how he used Rick Devens as a "lackey" to do his dirty work while keeping his own hands clean. From the truth about Cirie Fields' challenge liability to what we didn't see at Tribal Council, Jenna gives a raw, unfiltered look at what it's like to return to the game after 20 years.

In this preseason interview filmed in Fiji, Rick Devens reflects on his dramatic path to Survivor 50, revealing that he was nearly left off the cast as a late alternate before finally getting the call. Devens explains how that setback gave him a chip on his shoulder—and why it's pushed him to approach the game differently this time. From being one fire-making challenge away from winning his original season to intentionally playing down his threat level now, Devens breaks down his evolving strategy, his willingness to cause some trouble, and how he plans to navigate the massive old-school vs. new-era cast.

Send us a textJames Devens is the director of KCHU public radio which serves the communities around Prince William Sound and Wrangell-St Elias National Park. At the time he became director five years ago, he was the youngest director of a public radio station in America. Jimmy was elected to Valdez city council in 2020 and re-elected in 2023. He unsuccessfully ran for mayor in 2024, but he remains an active member on the council and is a founding member of their housing committee. Although Jimmy and I discuss the absolute destruction that cuts in federal funding will have on KCHU, much of the first part of today's episode will be about Jimmy's late grandfathers: John Devens Sr. who gained national fame in 1989 as mayor of Valdez during the Exxon Valdez oil spill and Jim Robison who was the president of the Alaska AFL/CIO and served as the Alaska Labor Commissioner from 1982 to 1987. We conclude our conversation with a discussion of housing policy.This interview was recorded while I was in Valdez on a walk with Jimmy, so you will hear occasional background noise including a very angry raven.

Send us a textPlaywright and filmmaker Sharisse Zeroonian streamed into the Playwright's Spotlight this week. Forgive a few moments of choppy audio on my end, but Sharisse's audio is clear, and she gives some great insight into taking your fate as a creative into one's own hands. We discuss her evolution as a writer through academia, offending your audience, self-publishing, unconventional marketing, what influences character names, avoiding expository dialogue, and character wants and obstacles. We also delve into discovering plot holes, writing in the present not in the past, the Playwrights' Center as a resource, the Playwrights Bill of Rights, and producing your own Amazon Series. Sharisse is a testament on DIY playwriting and getting one's work into the world. Enjoy!Sharisse Zeroonian is playwright and filmmaker. Her short play, “Glass Child” was featured in the 2024 10-Minute Play Festival at the Cannon Theater in Devens, MA, and will also be featured this month in the 2024 SOOP To Nuts Play Festival in Pelham, NY.

Survivor 45 is on! Eighteen new castaways are marooned on the islands of Fiji and there's already some surprising friction between the group. What drives Emily to confront Bruce the moment they get to the barge? Rick Devens and Jay Wolff dig into this moment and the other major turning points in the premiere episode — including a frightening medical incident, the strategy behind the new “Sweat vs. Savvy” and the very shocking twist at Tribal Council.
