  • Can be fun but it’s not a survivor podcast

    I like them, and they did aus v the world well but they so clearly don’t like survivor it makes you wonder why they’re still doing a survivor podcast.

  • Just fantastic

    I found Survivor during the pandemic (it’s not shown here in Scotland), and I’ve been hooked ever since.

    I can honestly say that you two are the funniest and most brutally honest podcasters I have ever listened to.

    I work from home so listening to the pod keeps me company.

    Thank you guys for all the entertainment💚

  • I don’t know a better survivor podcast.

    This podcast is the mother I never had, it is the sister everybody would want. It is the friend that everybody deserves. I don't know a better podcast.
