“This is like watching two golden retrievers try to keep a secret.”
I burst out laughing at this line; thank you for doing these recaps.

And your take on Survivor is right on the money – totally unmemorable group of people outside of Russell, Shambo, and um, the rest – no strategy, nothing is happening. I’ve invested enough time this season I’ll probably ride it out to the end, but I’m prepared to dump this from my DVR schedule.

What’s a hoot is this “excuse” that they aren’t voting someone out because of respect for P-Russ when its really because they planned to have 12 left over after the double boot so they could start the jury. But when they had to pull P-Russ out, there was 13, so a double boot would leave 11 and screw up the jury plans.

I honestly wonder if Probst has any kind of grasp on reality. (ironic, no?) The other part of the ep. where he rewrites history is when he told the remaining players that Purple Russel’s heart rate dropped and he passed out again “out of nowhere”. Well, no, it was when they sat him up to see if he could, which is a pretty big difference.

I wonder if the people closest to him are constantly asking themselves “is that the truth, or is that the Jeff Truth?” when he tells a story.

P.S. — I am an entirely different Shannon. Not Shambo.

Shambo, “pounding fists is not ‘locking it up’” — best line of the episode.
