Survivor 50 Vatu Tribe Preview Rob Cesternino (@RobCesternino) and Mike Bloom (@AMikeBloomType) are here to share their thoughts on the Survivor 50 Vatu Tribe consisting of Colby Donaldson, Genevieve Mushaluk, Rizo Velovic, Angelina Keeley, Q Burdette, Stephenie LaGrossa Kendrick, Kyle Fraser, and Aubry Bracco! Rob and Mike break down the big personalities, strategic tensions, and pregame perceptions fueling Vatu—which is already being hailed as a potential “disaster tribe.” From alliances to enemies and everything in between, Survivor's milestone season is off to an unpredictable start. Rob and Mike kick things off with a look at the Vatu tribe's makeup, debating if their buff is red, purple, or fuchsia—and what that means for tribe identity. They dig into key players like Angelina, who returns with unfinished business and a new self-aware approach, and Aubry, whose chill attitude hints at a new Survivor chapter. The duo discuss Colby's reinvigorated drive, Stephenie's evolving gameplay, and all the rivalries and friendships that could shape Vatu's future. Tribe talk features detailed breakdowns of “friend or foe” relationships, early alliances forming (or failing), and how returning winners like Kyle may be targeted by hungry competitors. With strong opinions and early readjustments, the group's chemistry could spark fireworks at Tribal. – Angelina's “babies versus businesses” meme energy and her history with Mike White – Aubry's laid-back return versus her old performative self – Colby's complete Survivor 180 and his focus on old-school bonds – Genevieve's “spy vibes” and concern over social stamina – Rizo's quick return, the challenge of shaking his new-era rep, and Q's wild, unpredictable reads (like judging people for drinking Coke and writing left-handed) As allegiance lines begin to form—old school vs. new school, big threats vs. shield players—Rob and Mike ask if Vatu will implode or manage the chaos. Who will control the tribe: Angelina's crafty plays, Q's wildcards, or Colby and Stephenie's steady hands?

Hey, Survivor! Have you ever looked back on your narcissistic relationship and thought, “How did I not see this?” If you've been feeling embarrassed, ashamed, or questioning your intelligence after narcissistic abuse, this episode is for you. In this episode, we unpack why survivors often feel foolish — and why that feeling is actually a trauma response, not a character flaw. You'll learn how manipulation, trauma bonding, and betrayal trauma impact the brain, why self-blame is common after emotional abuse, and how to rebuild trust in yourself. If you're recovering from narcissistic abuse, emotional manipulation, or a toxic relationship — this episode will help you move from self-doubt to self-trust, from shame to clarity, and from confusion to confidence.

In this preseason interview filmed in Fiji, Jonathan Young reveals the unique preparation he undertook for his return in Survivor 50, including a personal letter of advice and three specific rules for success from legend Boston Rob. Known as the ultimate "challenge beast" of the New Era, Young explains why he is actually grateful his strategic game was downplayed in Season 42 and how he plans to use his status as a "free agent" to navigate a cast full of pre-existing alliances. From weaning himself off food to handle the island's starvation to identifying which old-school icons he wants to work with, Jonathan breaks down his evolving strategy for this milestone season.

In this preseason interview filmed in Fiji, Emily Flippen reveals the internal struggle behind returning for the milestone 50th season. She breaks down her fascinating psychological reads on legends like Cirie Fields and Coach at Ponderosa, explaining why she's already picking up on a massive divide in energy between the icons of the game. From calling the back-to-back players from season 49 "psychos" to her ruthless decision to vote against the cast receiving rice, Emily discusses leaning into her reputation as a "physical liability" and how she plans to navigate a fast-paced game where she feels like a permanent underdog.

Rizo Velovic & Stephenie LaGrossa Kendrick 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! Today, Mike Bloom brings together a special Vatu tribe duo for an in-depth round of preseason interviews. In this milestone episode, Mike sits down with returning Survivor 49 standout Rizo Velovic and legendary veteran Stephenie LaGrossa Kendrick to explore how new-school energy collides with old-school experience, all while strategists and super fans gear up for an epic season. Survivor 50's anticipation becomes even more intense as Rizo grapples with the notoriety of being the infamous “Riz God” and Stephenie reflects on her return to the game after more than a decade away. The discussion opens with Rizo sharing his whirlwind journey—playing Survivor 49, getting pulled aside by Jeff Probst just hours before leaving Fiji, and learning he's in for back-to-back seasons. Rizo talks openly about carrying the “Riz God” persona into Survivor 50 and his calculated read on how cast perception shapes his target level. He breaks down the division between old-school and new-school players, explaining why he feels safer aligning with Survivor's original legends over modern contestants who are deeply interconnected and more likely to view him as a threat. In the “Friend or Foe” game, Rizo offers rapid-fire takes on castaways, revealing his read on potential allies, rivals, and how he hopes to become “The Prodigy” under Coach's mentorship. On the flip side, Stephenie shares emotional stories from her years away—retiring from reality TV for family, overcoming personal loss, and what motivates her Survivor comeback. She considers her original reputation, lessons learned on Snake in the Grass and The Traitors, and her plan to build genuine bonds while dodging the threat radar. Both Rizo and Stephenie analyze the tribe's dynamics, assess loyalty, spotlight connections, and weigh who could shield them from an early exit. Rizo's strategy as the youngest contestant and navigating his “Riz God” identity The divide between old-schoolers and new-era players, and why Rizo prefers to work with Survivor legends Stephenie's return after years away and her plan to blend in, stay loyal, and play for her family Hints about pregame connections, potential alliances, and which players stand out as immediate threats or trusted allies Highlights from the “Friend or Foe” game—Rizo's picks for key alliances, who could be targeted first, and who both guests would bring back for Survivor 50 As Survivor 50 gets closer, will Rizo's superfan energy and calculated alliances help or hurt his chances?

In this preseason interview filmed in Fiji, Christian Hubicki opens up about his long-awaited return for Survivor 50 and the major life shifts—including earning tenure and becoming a father just six weeks before the game—that have reshaped his approach to the season. Christian explains his new "narrative warfare" strategy, a lesson he's stealing from Mike White to control the stories told on the island, while breaking down his fascinating "four role" hypothesis on how this legendary cast was built. From his pre-game observations of Coach and Cirie to his plan to become an "ace in the hole" that his competitors won't see coming, the robotics professor reveals why he is finally ready to crack the code of the final three.

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.

The release of the Epstein files triggered immediate outrage from survivors after the U.S. Department of Justice disclosed identifying details that should never have seen daylight. For many victims, the files were not a moment of transparency but a fresh violation—names, contextual clues, and personal information surfaced in a way that made them identifiable to the public. Survivors and their advocates accused the DOJ of recklessness, arguing that the government had been warned repeatedly about the risks and still chose speed and optics over basic victim protection. The result was renewed trauma for people who had already endured years of abuse, silencing, and institutional neglect.That outcry quickly hardened into a broader indictment of how the Epstein case has been handled from start to finish. Survivors said the exposure confirmed their worst fears: that the system remains more focused on document dumps and procedural box-checking than on the human beings harmed by Jeffrey Epstein. Advocates stressed that anonymity is not a courtesy but a safeguard, especially in a case involving global attention and powerful interests. By failing to protect it, the DOJ not only endangered survivors' privacy and safety but also deepened the mistrust that has long defined this case—turning what was billed as accountability into yet another chapter of institutional failure.to  contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Thousands of Epstein files taken down after some survivors' names and nude photos found | CBC News

The Justice Department's latest release of Epstein-related files has only reinforced suspicions that transparency is being managed, not delivered. While the DOJ claims it complied with the Epstein Files Transparency Act by publishing more than three million pages, victims' advocates and attorneys argue this disclosure is incomplete by design. The government previously acknowledged that roughly six million pages of material were potentially responsive, yet has offered no credible, document-by-document accounting for why nearly half never saw the light of day. Instead, the DOJ has leaned on vague explanations about “duplicates” and “non-responsive” material—language that critics say has long been used to quietly bury politically inconvenient or institutionally embarrassing records, particularly when powerful interests are implicated.What has angered advocates most is not just the volume gap, but the pattern: delayed deadlines, sweeping redactions, missing correspondence, and an apparent reluctance to expose how Epstein's protection actually functioned inside federal systems. Survivors and their lawyers argue that the DOJ continues to frame secrecy as victim protection while simultaneously shielding officials, prosecutors, and well-connected associates who failed—repeatedly—to intervene. Lawmakers pushing for further disclosure have accused the department of treating transparency as a public-relations exercise rather than a legal and moral obligation. Taken together, the delays, omissions, and shifting explanations have fueled the perception that the DOJ is still policing the narrative of the Epstein scandal, not reckoning with its own role in enabling it.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:New Epstein files fail to quell outrage as advocates claim documents are being withheld | Jeffrey Epstein | The Guardian

The letter urges immediate judicial intervention by Judges Berman and Engelmayer after what the authors describe as a serious failure by the Department of Justice in releasing Epstein-related records. According to the letter, on January 30, 2026, the DOJ released more than 3.5 million documents while failing to properly redact victims' names and other personally identifying information in thousands of instances. This occurred despite repeated assurances from the DOJ that redaction was the sole reason for delaying the release and explicit acknowledgments that failure to redact would cause extraordinary harm to victims. The letter outlines a long paper trail showing that concerns about victim protection were raised well before the mass release. The authors note that warnings were first directed to Attorney General Pam Bondi in February 2025 following the release of “The Epstein Files: Phase 1,” and later escalated to Judge Berman in August 2025 to ensure compliance with the Crime Victims' Rights Act. Despite these efforts, the DOJ proceeded with flawed releases as public and congressional interest intensified, including a November 2025 release of 20,000 documents by the House Oversight Committee. The letter argues that the DOJ's conduct reflects a pattern of mismanagement and disregard for victim safeguards, and it asks the court to step in to prevent further harm and enforce lawful redaction obligations.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.518649.102.0_1.pdf

Survivors of Jeffrey Epstein have accused his estate and its attorneys — including the estate's executors who handled his financial and legal affairs after his death — of engaging in aggressive tactics aimed at intimidating, belittling, and discouraging survivors from pursuing their claims rather than supporting accountability and transparency. According to media and survivor advocates, lawyers working on behalf of the estate used procedural maneuvers, confrontational language, and dismissive strategies in responses to civil claims, effectively positioning survivors as nuisances rather than victims seeking justice. These actions included challenging every substantive point of survivors' lawsuits, minimizing the legitimacy of their accounts, and attempting to undercut their credibility in court filings and negotiations, conduct critics describe as reflective of a defensive, bullying posture rather than a genuine engagement with victims' harm.Critics argue that such behavior from the estate — which controlled Epstein's remaining assets and influence — perpetuated the same power imbalances that enabled his abuse in the first place, making survivors relive trauma through hostile legal processes instead of offering redress or empathy. Rather than facilitating meaningful resolution, the estate's tactics have been portrayed by survivors and advocates as attempts to protect the interests of Epstein's financial legacy and minimize payouts, even while victims sought recognition of the scale and severity of the crimes committed against them. This conduct has fueled broader outrage about how institutions linked to Epstein have treated survivors, reinforcing perceptions that the justice system and powerful interests are still aligned against those who were harmed.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

My guest, Ashley Tuburan, and I met at a women's leadership conference I was speaking at last May. Ashley's story and her spirit touched me, so I asked her to be on the podcast.I would like to warn our listeners that this podcast deals with sensitive topics such as sexual assault and mental illness, so if either of these issues trigger you or others, do what is right for you. During our discussion, Ashley and I chatted about:Her tough childhood and decision to enlist in the militaryHer experience with sexual assault while on active duty and the aftermath of that traumaAshley's decision to get into law enforcement to protect othersHow Ashley took it a step farther by pursuing a law degreeHow Ashley deals with her mental health and mental health setbacksHere is more about Ashley:Ashley Tuburan is a U.S. Navy veteran, police officer, and trauma-informed coach dedicated to mental health advocacy and survivor-centered leadership. As a military sexual assault survivor, Ashley brings both lived experience and professional insight to her work, helping organizations and individuals better understand resilience, accountability, and healing within high-stress environments.Drawing from her background in military service, law enforcement, and coaching, Ashley speaks on topics including trauma awareness, survivor advocacy, mental wellness, and building healthier cultures in institutions traditionally shaped by toughness and silence. Her approach is grounded, compassionate, and practical—focused on empowering people to lead with empathy while maintaining strength and professionalism.Outside of her professional work, Ashley is a proud mom to an energetic 8-year-old son, a devoted animal lover (maine coon cat mom), and a self-proclaimed donut enthusiast—because balance matters. She believes healing and leadership can coexist, and that authenticity is a powerful catalyst for change.If the Brave Women at Work Podcast has helped you personally or professionally, please share it with a friend, colleague, or family member.

Michael Malice (“YOUR WELCOME”) welcomes author and multi-season Survivor contestant, Stephen Fishbach, onto the show to discuss what drives our human fascination with emotional voyeurism, how fame is viewed from the lens of a reality tv contestant, and why being in front of a camera can train you to be a good liar and gas-lighter. Stephen also finds out how Michael really feel about Jeff Probst, what Michael's hack would be if he ever played Traitors, and the one show that should never exist, but does.

My friend Rev. Jamie White (Pastor at First Presbyterian Church of Salt Lake City, theological/pastoral education from Vanguard University and Princeton Seminary, married mother of three) joins us to share her story including: Being raped at age 18, becoming pregnant, keeping her child—now her eldest son/recently married Feeling her life was ruined. No hope. Deep anger. Could have killed her abuser Writing letters to her unborn son The support that saved her; parents and faith community, and her mom's tough advice Therapist jolting comment: “This tragedy must become your greatest treasure.” Initial anger at this comment—but became true. Hard work to find peace and forgiveness—loving your enemies. Finding her husband Dave—and building a life together. Creating space in her congregation for diversity rather than uniformity, tough work but worth it Acceptance and love of queer members of her congregation—including the story of a thriving transgender member. If you are looking for hope/healing from difficult experiences (or better tools to help others), please listen and share this episode. Jamie brings a rare combination from her academic background, profession experience, love of Jesus, and her personal story of being a rape survivor to authentically help each of us overcome difficult experiences and find more hope, peace, healing and forgiveness. This is a super powerful podcast. I encourage everyone to listen and share with others.

In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse Q&A, Brandon Chadwick discusses "weaponized incompetence" in relationships, where one partner consistently fails at tasks to shift responsibility to the other, leading to exhaustion and control. Survivors often manage household chores, finances, and emotional labor, while abusers claim incompetence. The episode aims to provide language and understanding for survivors, emphasizing that this manipulation is not their fault.If you want to be a guest on our survivor story podcast, please ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠click here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or send us an email at narcissistapocalypse@pm.meClick here to read our in depth article on Weaponized Incompetence. Sign up to our Domestic Violence Newsletter  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

After nearly a decade away from the game, Chrissy Hofbeck is back for Survivor 50—and she believes the timing couldn't be better. In this preseason interview, the Survivor 35 finalist sits down with host Sharon Tharp on set in Fiji to break down her strategy heading into Survivor 50: In the Hands of the Fans. Chrissy opens up about why being a “lone wolf” from her season could work to her advantage, how jury dynamics may shape the endgame, and why she thinks New Era players could become early targets. She also reflects on the “robbed” narrative from her original season, discusses managing her challenge reputation, and explains why she genuinely believes she has a path to win this time around.

In this preseason interview filmed in Fiji, Aubry Bracco opens up about returning for Survivor 50 after stepping away from the Survivor community and how that time off — along with becoming a parent — has reshaped her perspective and strategy. Aubry explains why she plans to play as a free agent in the early game, focusing on one-on-one relationships, keeping her options open, and avoiding early commitments in a cast full of returning players with pre-existing alliances. She also reflects on adapting to the modern game and what she's watching for in the critical opening phase of Survivor 50.

Both players open up about the unique challenges of returning to the island, and share candid thoughts about their fellow castaways and their own approaches to the toughest social game on TV. Kicking things off, Mike Bloom asks Colby about his return after 15 years and what inspires him to play again. Colby talks about moving back to Texas and reconnecting with his roots, feeling “hungrier” than ever despite being no longer seen as a physical threat by the new cast.

Genevieve gets her chance to weigh in, discussing her evolution from strategic player to a more balanced social game. She opens up about feeling like an outsider among a sea of returning players, revealing she has “no friends” on this cast and sees that as both a risk and an opportunity. Genevieve's own “Friend or Foe” reads are guided by gut instinct, raw vibes, and past Survivor arcs, with surprising picks and a little dry humor mixed in. She's most worried about being the easy early vote, but vows to bring a cutthroat edge from day one. – Colby candidly assesses threats and allies, from Cirie and Ozzy to new school wild cards like Kyle and Camilla – Genevieve admits her fears about early vulnerability and speculates on how social connections shape safety and targeting – Both players wrestle with past missteps and their plans to rewrite their Survivor legacies – Colby and Genevieve offer friend-or-foe hot takes on iconic castaways, including Coach, Angelina, Chrissy, and the mysterious “Rizgod” – Funny moments abound, including Colby's long-lost schoolyard pick strategy and Genevieve's goal to channel “Joy” from Inside Out for her loved ones visit Will Colby's Texas comeback strategy finally bring him a win, and can Genevieve break out of her outsider shell to outmaneuver old and new alliances?

Angelina Keeley & Aubry Bracco 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! Today, Mike Bloom starts a preseason deep dive into the Vatu tribe featuring returnees Angelina Keeley and Aubry Bracco. Angelina opens up about her major life changes since David vs. Goliath, while Aubry reflects on her evolution across her storied Survivor journey, setting the stage for a season full of big personalities, new alliances, and possible blindsides. Mike chats with Angelina about what it's like to be called back after seven years away from the game, including leaving behind a young family and a new business to take another shot at the title of Sole Survivor. Angelina breaks down her approach heading into the game, how being a mom and entrepreneur brings a new flavor to her gameplay, why her “BFF, friend, or foe” approach will guide her alliances, and how she handles being labeled “chaotic.” Aubry discusses her surprise at being invited back, what she's learned from her three previous seasons, and how she aims to play with more self-awareness, adaptability, and focus on one-on-one connections. Both women weigh in on their perceptions of fellow castaways, discussing new era strategists, obvious threats, and the push and pull between loyalty and gameplay. Angelina ranks her cast as BFF, friend, or foe in a candid alliances game, revealing beef, admiration, and strategic wariness, especially when it comes to winners and new era players. Aubry shares how being blindsided in Edge of Extinction changed her approach, and why she's focused on staying grounded and present this time around. Both discuss leaving behind kids, running businesses, and the “joyful warrior” mindset they hope to channel on the island. Each interview explores Survivor's evolving meta, including whether recent winners should be targeted, which returnees are most dangerous, and how pre-existing relationships will shape alliances. Funny moments include Angelina's dream “summer solstice” camp party and her family rooting for Ozzy right alongside her. As the anticipation for season 50 builds, Mike asks: Can Angelina or Aubry climb higher on the Survivor ladder, or will new threats and old friends stand in their way? How will personal growth off the island translate into better game performance in Fiji's high-stakes returnee showdown?

The Justice Department says their review into convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein is done, with the release of millions of documents and thousands of images and videos last Friday.Annie Farmer is one of many people who testified in court about Epstein, and Ghislaine Maxwell. She says they sexually abused her when she was 16 years old. She's also been a leading voice in calling on the DOJ to release all records related to Epstein.The release included pictures of nude women, or possibly girls, and the names of victims, all of which should have been redacted. A DOJ spokeswoman subsequently told the New York Times the department was addressing victim concerns and making additional redactions.Farmer tells NPR she's "really upset," saying the release of victims' names and images is "really disgusting." However she adds that, "what I do feel clear about is the fact we still believe transparency is important."For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org.  Email us at considerthis@npr.org.This episode was produced by Jonaki Mehta and Karen Zamora, with audio engineering by Ted Mebane.
