  • 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💚
