Emily Flippen & Jenna Lewis-Dougherty Survivor 50 Preseason Interviews Mike Bloom (@AMikeBloomType) is here to chat to the cast of Survivor 50! Join us to hear from your favorite returning Survivor players! Survivor 50 preseason interviews are here, as Mike Bloom sits down with Emily Flippen and Jenna Lewis Dougherty to uncover what's driving some of the season's most intriguing castaways. In this deep-dive episode, Survivor 45 standout Emily returns to Fiji after publicly swearing off a comeback, while OG icon Jenna Lewis makes her fierce return to the game after more than two decades away. Hear firsthand how these two women—each with unique Survivor journeys—plan to navigate the complex social web and shifting strategies of the milestone 50th season. The episode starts with Emily Flippen explaining how she surprised even herself by returning for Survivor 50, when she'd once insisted she was done with the game. Emily opens up about her mindset shift, wanting to control her narrative after feeling her “softer” story arc in season 45 left an incomplete lesson. She discusses the pressure of fan expectations, overcoming personal insecurities, and why she's aiming for a “Goldilocks zone” between directness and tact. Jenna Lewis Dougherty, meanwhile, reveals how the game has—and hasn't—changed since Borneo and All-Stars, describing her plan to weaponize being underestimated and use “conjecture flattery” as a tool. Mike explores their thoughts on the new era, their targeted alliances, and what it takes for an old-school or new-school player to thrive among legends and wildcards. Emily reflects on her evolution, admitting she didn't love the lesson viewers took from her arc on Survivor 45, and wants to prove you don't have to change your core to succeed. Jenna outlines her “mommy complex” strategy, aiming to bond with younger players and then outmaneuver them at critical moments. Both women assess their competition, highlighting who they see as friends or threats—with hilarious, candid takes on castmates like Coach, Aubry, Ozzy, and D. Emily weighs the impact of social media buzz and fan perception, while Jenna describes using her “real life” negotiation skills in the cutthroat Survivor world. Strategies for handling returning players, “winner killers,” alliance flips, and being underestimated are front and center. As the cast prepares to hit the beach, questions loom: Can Emily strike the right balance between bluntness and gameplay finesse? Will Jenna's old-school instincts keep her safe among the sharks—or lead to her early downfall? Who will take control in a game where every move is scrutinized? Chapters: 0:00 Intros 6:07 Emily Reflects On Survivor Return 12:07 Friend Or Foe Game Begins 18:25 Emily Assesses Her Competition 26:36 Jenna Lewis Dougherty's Big Comeback 32:29 Adapting To Modern Survivor Game 38:20 Strategic Prep And Challenge Training 44:10 Forming Alliances And Manipulation 50:15 Targeting Winners And Forming Bonds 56:05 Dream Loved One Choices Revealed Never miss a minute of RHAP's extensive Survivor coverage!

We're mashing up quantum computing, AI infrastructure, and space stocks as we dig into a handful of headline-grabbing earnings reports. From GPU farms on the ground to satellites in orbit, we're asking what's investable now… and what still belongs in the “sci-fi someday” bucket. Emily Flippen, Jason Hall, and Keith Speights: - Break down CoreWeave's latest results, including booming backlog, heavy capex, and whether an AI infrastructure arms race can still reward shareholders. - Compare CoreWeave's reality to “up-and-coming” quantum names like Rigetti, IonQ, D-Wave, and QUBT – and make the case for (or against) taking the tech-giant route with Alphabet or Microsoft instead. - Explain why Rocket Lab's record revenue, rising margins, and growing backlog are bright spots in a bruised space sector – and how government shutdown drama factors into the story. - Dig into AST SpaceMobile's satellite-to-cell strategy, big-name carrier partners, ambitious launch plans, and why 2026 could be a make-or-break year for the stock.
