    Points updated! Boy at this point, it looks like Staz is running away with it and this game is just gonna be a fight for second place but it's still early and anything can happen! This episode felt like 2 completely separate 30 minute eps. That medical situation was so intense and emotional and then a completely straight forward boot at tribal. Weird but really thrilling television. I give it a solid PROB.

     

    New job to add to Debbie's list: Mastermind.

    The orange hat is back this week! My favorite Probst hat!

    "...like a turtle birthing an egg" what the fuck Probst?

    This week in Probst ball innuendo - "Let's go! EMPTY THOSE BALLS"

    Hang tough Deb!!!

    Doctor Joe! I love Doctor Joe!

    Hey isn't Peter a doctor...shouldn't he like...maybe step in to help here?

    Yeah Caleb! Yeah Beauty!

    OH NO CALEB NO

    FUCK

    FUUUUUUUUUUUCK

    FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

    "It will be okay. It will be okay." Thanks robot Nick

    Caleb and Tai better fuckin kiss at the reunion or we riot

    CALEB FOR SECOND CHANCE SEASON 2

    "He hopes to play again" yeah they're definitely bringing Caleb back

    Seriously though props to Doctor Joe for taking on 3 simultaneous very serious emergencies. That was brutal. Doctor Joe is the man.

    Brains Joe is the man too, he made sure to get help for Debbie and held shit down.

    Good ep for people named Joe imo.

    Guys, I love Debbie

    Props to Jason for taking care of Cydney too

    Man, the Brawn tribe is such a fucking mess

    Alecia should just drop it because she isn't doing herself any favors here and just exasperating the situation

    Scot, I played as many minutes as you in the NBA finals bro. You were essentially a cheerleader

    Jason and Scot are being DICKS

    So Jason is bullying Alecia as an inspirational lesson to young girls across America? Aha, got it

    PROBST WHY DID YOU CHANGE FROM ORANGE HAT TO BLACK HAT?!

    Black hat because you're mourning the loss of Caleb, I bet. Okay, that alright you get a pass

    The ghost of Darnell surges through the ocean and destroys all of the goggles

    Debbie quietly talking about frontal lobes is my favorite

    Oh my god Alecia.

    "Does anyone want to swap out?" Alecia to Jason and Scot who are like, nah youre fucked

    Sassy Probst is the greatest

    At least Alecia is going out with dignity good for her.

    RIP Mental Giant

    Sucks that Alecia got shoehorned onto the Brawns tribe. I think she would have done much better if she were on Beauty

     

    So merge next week or just a tribe swap? Gotta be a swap right?

    Gonna give this ep a solid PROBS on the patented PROBST scale. Lots of fun camp stuff and a great challenge. Plus a #BLINDSIDE!

     

    The mental giant is going to try and target the actual giant? That won't end well

    Come on Tai baby! You can do it!

    YESSSSS!

    Hmm, so the super idol is like the Tyler Perry Idol from the first BvBvB but not quite. I dig it

    Debbie Wanner Job Listings this week: CIVIL AIR PATROL CAPT., CHEMIST and a self proclaimed person who knows when to stop talking which is a beautiful amount of self-unawareness

    Liz, why the fuck are you working with Peter, you're supposed to be smart. Stop this nonsense.

    Caleb consoling Tai during the chicken killing may be my favorite moment of the episode.

    Fuck you Nick

    Anna is very pretty. So is her chest. Sorry.

    IT'S IDOL FEVER TONIGHT BABY

    I like that Jason says he's the "best bounty hunter in all of South-Eastern Michigan." Weird thing to brag about.

    Ball challenge! Shoutout to the ball champ Keith. Miss you my sweet sweet Keith. #NaleMale4E

    Beauty Tribe rules, I love them.

    Brawn comes in 2nd! The mental giant lives to see another day!

    Neal with the bow tie! Bob Crowley 2.0?

    Peter Obama is annoying. Fuck you.

    Oh baby, we got a #Blindside coming for Peter

    Who would have thought that Debbie would turn out to be the wiliest and savviest player on the brains tribe? Way to go Debbie

    Peter is so cocky. Although I would be too if I were elected to two terms

    This dude just sealed his fucking fate. Ooooh man what a dummy.

    I like Neal a lot

    3 WAY TIE I LOVE IT!

    Joe can barely contain himself!

    Lol at the closeup shot of the ice cream pants

    NOOO LIZ GODDAMN YOU LIZ I WARNED YOU

    Silly that Liz and Peter thought they were in control with a 2 person alliance. Silly little billies

     

    Medevac next week and Tai is crying! I hope it's not Caleb!!!

    Hello

     

    Great first post!

     

     

    This is a good first post! What should I do for mine?

     

    Great first post!

     

     

    Speaking of that I have to apologize to JoeMcGurl for being rude last week. You see I had Just seen Deadpool the day b4 the ep dropped and I think it had a bit of an adverse effect on me. And as we know if you stare too long into Deadpool, Deadpool so stares back into you. Hayes' randy behavior during this ep obviously ramming that point home hard over and over thrusting thrusting oh yeah baby oh yeah oh oh oh oh-yeeeessss!!!!. That came out wrong. So again sorry to nice Mr McGurl who is nice.

     

    To quote the famous line that Sean Clements once said to Joe McGurl, "No no, I don't care. You think I give a fuck what you say dude? Eat shit motherfucker, say whatever you want."

    Good ep. Fun. Gets a PROB on Greggy's patented PROBST scale. Point totals are added to the original thread post and will be updated each ep! ONTO THE NOTES

     

     

    Embryo.

     

    Tai is so cute

     

    The red ants teamed up to get Tai after he nastily ripped up those poor trees last week. Sorry Tai but karma's a bitch and that's what you get for being an unlikable villain

     

    Tai found the idol!

     

    Nope a clue to the idol

     

    Nope it's in a box he dug up

     

    Nope there's a key

     

    Nope it's in a tree?

     

    "The idol is buried at the foot of this tree lol nope sorry its in a box that you need to unlock with a key that's really high up in that tree over there haha tricked you! You should see the look on your face, idiot!"

     

    Chop the fucking tree down, Tai. No. Mercy.

     

    Oh Debbie. Oh Debbie no.

     

    "Pathogens my butt!"

     

    Ah, I'm kind of warming up to Peter now.

     

    #Meow

     

    Oh Debbie no don't cheer lead

     

    Debbie is amazing you guys

     

    Caleb and Tai are 2QT

     

    I've heard of the Odd Couple on CBS but THIS odd couple on CBS?! Now I've seen everything!!

     

    Tai and Caleb for the next season of Amazing Race

     

    #StolenKiss

     

    Alecia makes fire! Well, it took her 5 hours but good for her

     

    Probst is so cute

     

    Oh Debbie don't cheer lead.

     

    Who gave Debbie palm fronds this is amazing.

     

    Beauty tribe is my fave. GO YOU BEAUTS!

     

    I like Cydney a lot

     

    Yes Jason, Alecia IS stupid because she's looking for an idol when she knows that she's being voted out. Women are so dumb, right!!

     

    Ooooooh Jenny noooooooooo

     

    Jenny is crashing and burning right now

     

    The worms must have gotten into Jenny's brain

     

    I'm glad that they showed Alecia taking the cap off this time. She's learning! That's nice!!

     

    THE MENTAL GIANT LIVES ANOTHER DAY

     

    Wtf is going on with your tongue Alecia it's weird and I hate that you're doing it but I can't look away and sort of love it

     

    So far in both episodes I have been certain that Alecia was going home before tribal council started. It turns out that the only person being #Blindsided is me.

     

    I also don't think I've ever seen a tribal where someone is 100% safe going in and then totally fucking implodes and sends themselves home. This season is off to such a great start.

     

    After last seasons constant strategy and gamebot talk at camp, I'm happy to get the focus of camp life this season to be less strategy and more just the survivors hanging out and having fun. Classic survivor stuff there

    This is a great perspective coming from the guy who decided there needed to be a permalink to a doc about how to post on this forum as his signature. I've always remembered to be myself and not have to always be funny because it's okay no really it's okay. Thanks for reaching out with your nice sincere message. It's content is also very self aware and doesn't defeat it's own point. You're certainly no Deadpool.

    Okay! Great premiere episode I thought. I really think this season is off to a strong start. Very promising cast with a lot of strong personalities and characters across the board. Should be a ton of fun to watch! Prediction and note time!

     

    Challenge Beast: My gut says to pick Scot but I don't know if he'll make it long in the post-merge game so I'm going with someone who I think will do well in single immunity. Jason

    The Strategist: Liz. I mean she's a quantitative strategist....it's right there in the job title.

    The Black Widow: I'm feeling Anna for this one. With her background as a poker player I think she has the potential to play a very low key strategic game that people will underestimate because she's on the beauty tribe.

    The Old Schooler: The obvious choice is to pick Joe so that is exactly what I'm doing. I pick Joe.

    Under The Radar: I'm going with Michelle because she didn't make much of an impression on me but could be good? Idk

    Wildcard: The obvious choice is to pick Debbie but that's NOT what I'm doing. I'm going with Aubrey. I think she's in an interesting position and the most willing to work with Joe and Debbie and flip on the "young/hot people" brains alliance.

    Bench Players: Scot and Tai

     

    Final 3 Prediction: Anna, Liz and Neal

    Winner Pick: Anna

     

    Notes!

     

    Nick sitting on the boat like that immediately makes me want to see him fall off and get eaten by a kraken

     

    *gross male perspective comment* Anna is a poker player, eh? I'd like to see her pair, if ya knowwhatimsayinbabybaby

     

    Cydney shoving Neal out of the way was kind of awesome but maybe scary. She could beat me up so bad

     

    Alecia is going to be the sneaky sneaky player this year because how is she on the brawn tribe right? She'll be the new Wentworth tip my sweet wentworth I miss you so much I love you

     

    Jason is a real sweetie underneath all those tats

     

    Okay nevermind, Jason and Scot are going to be villains but I'm way into it

     

    "And sometimes on the weekends, I pick up a shift at the Red Lobster as a waitress." Amazing.

     

    Oh Debbie. Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh Debbie Debbie Debbie. You are a delightful mess.

     

    Neal is fun. He called himself a "dandy in ice cream pants" which is just wonderful.

     

    Cheers to Caleb for saying the phrase, "Well, I'm straight up murderizing this tree right now."

     

    Holy shit Tai is the greatest ever. I want a pocket sized Tai to carry around all the time and tell me about the things he loves. #AllAboardtheTaiTrangTrain

     

    Cheers to Caleb for being low key racist saying, "Mr. Miyagi glasses." Mr. Miyagi doesn't even wear glasses DUH HAVE YOU EVER EVEN SEEN THE KARATE KID BRO?!

     

    Aqua dump

     

    Brown Trout

     

    I like Darnell. Darnell is fun.

     

    Obama calling the older people "grandma and grandpa" is NOT super douchey or arrogant at all

     

    Oh my god they keep changing Debbie's occupation in her confessionals.

     

    Debbie is Coach 2.0 with shades of Phillip and I love it baby

     

    Scot Pollard is out here to PLAY y'all! Love it!

     

    I never watched Big Brother but a lot of people apparently hate Caleb and think he's a dick but aside from him saying the word "murderizing" and him being a bit of a dick about Tai being on the beauty tribe, I thought he came across quite affable and charming. I dunno, I like the guy. I bet him and Tai are gonna become best buddies and start a gardening business together.

     

    Very bizarre that Tai would think he has to rip trees out of the ground to find an idol lol

     

    On that note, Tai thinks that using an ax on a tree is murdering it but straight up ripping lil baby boo trees root and all is cool? I don't know maybe I don't understand gardening at all?

     

    "sorry, trees."

    - okay Tai, all is forgiven you cute lil gaysian ray of sunshine

     

    Shout out to Tai for getting caught looking for an idol and then just being like, "oh yeah I was looking for the idol, let me just look for another 5 minutes, go away plz thank you!" That's what I'd do. "Hell yeah I'm looking for an idol, why aren't you, you idiots"

     

    Oh okay this bug shit is terrifying and gross

     

    Oh okay they're showing the bug literally crawling out of the bloody ear this is so gross but I can't look away

     

    Oh okay now I'm imagining what it would be like if I had to feel a bug crawling around in my ear canal and hear it scratching around this is fine

     

    that immunity idol is dope as heck

     

    They've showed Jason crack his knuckles twice now. I hope this becomes a new thing

     

    "That was an absolute DISASTER by Darnell for the brawn tribe!"

    - Probst yelling during challenges is my fave thing ever

     

    Holy shit Probst is fired up heck yeah now I'm getting fired up!

     

    Okay I take what I said earlier about Alecia being smart

     

    Damn, that was an awesome challenge. I LOVE THESE CHALLENGES BABY I MISSED SURVIVOR

     

    Okay I take back literally anything positive I said about Alecia not being an absolute disaster.

     

    "I am a mental giant."

     

    Darnell makin me feel the feels man, this is sad.

     

    Alecia - "I am a mental giant that does not know how to take the cap off of a pen." Bless this girl.

     

    Jason has cracked his knuckles for the third time. This is the new Keith spitting

     

    Scot having to duck under the archway to vote is a very funny image and if you missed it I suggest you go back and watch it

     

    OH SHIT A TIE ALREADY SHIT

     

    WHAT?! WHY

     

    Man, I liked Darnell. Done in by the dookie, no doubt.

     

    Here's hoping Alecia becomes J'Tia 2.0 and just sticks around and ruins this tribe and becomes insane.

     

     

    Good first ep! It gets a PROB on Greggy's patented PROBST Episode Rating Scale. Man I missed this show

    WE'RE BACK BABY AND LOOK HOW HAPPY PROBST IS TO HAVE YOU ALL HERE AGAIN!

     

    e13tv52.jpg

     

     

    Anyway, I started a new thread because the last one needs to remain a perfect time capsule dedicated to me correctly picking Jeremy as the winner on day 1. Can I recapture the title of sole Hollywood Handbook Survivor?? Will Kaoh-Rong Jo Long be our challenge beast again?? Will YOU hoist the Doritos JACKED 3D: Bold Prediction of the Week trophy above your head week after week?!?!? Only time will tell but the excitement cannot be held back! I've got notes and stuff but I thought it'd be fun to do picks again for this season.

     

    WITH A NEW TWIST! POINTS!

     

    So, I thought it would be fun to do a sort of "fantasy survivor league" type thing this year. All of the points are totally arbitrary and random that I just decided but whatever, it's all for fun anyway. As episode 1 has already aired, scores will begin to be kept during episode 2.

     

     

    Challenge Beast: Someone who will prove his or her challenge prowess.

    The Strategist: Players who will show the greatest strategic aptitude.

    The Black Widow: Aka the Parvati Award; this is a female player who might be underrated or not so front-of-mind and can therefore strategically sneak her way to the top.

    The Old Schooler: A player who will play more of the "old school survivor" mindset, i.e. focus less on the strategy aspect of the game and more in it for the experience. (Think someone like Keith)

    Under The Radar: Someone entering Survivor aiming to play an undetectable game.

    Wildcard: A player who is completely unpredictable

    Bench Players: 2 bonus players you like or want to pick for extra points.

     

    Final 3 Prediction: The 3 players who will make it to the final.

    Winner Pick: The player who will win this season.

     

    Here is the link to the google doc points spreadsheet

     

     

    Here is the link to the google doc scoring sheet

    Joey Amazing - 521

    Hey guys, just sending out some positive vibes to my favorite forum gang out of the entire information superhighway.

     

    Today is not my birthday but I'm pretending like it is and it's my little secret. I went to the grocery store earlier and was walking around like it was my birthday and only I knew it! The cashier smiled at me and I thought, "Well that's a nice birthday gift!" What a fun day. If anyone would like to send me some birthday wishes, that would be alright, I won't tell! hehe ;)

     

    Lots of love and kisses** from me to you!

     

     

     

    **these kisses are made under the assumption that they are consensual, if that is not the case, I can also give a non romantic hug or I can tousle your hair and say "good job sport"

    So I'm new here and my team won what some might call the "Snoopy Bowl". A friend who listens to this podcast referred it to me, saying that it was a pretty funny "sports-guy show". After listening to this episode I would have to agree and was just wondering if you were going to have any sports guests on soon? And btw I'm not at all like those people you were talking about in the episode, I know a lot about football and can prove it. Would like to hear your guys' take on Peyton Manning. Anyways, looking forward to more great sports philosophy. (And that funny stuff too!)

     

    Sincerely,

     

    Adam

     

    Great first post!
