Reverse the Curse
The Survivor 50 finale, Reverse the Curse, landed and the Plz Survive crew gets to explain to [no longer] newbie Molly that, no, spoiling the show within the show is not a finale staple. Jessica loses her mind over the absolute hilarity of Jonathan's exit interviews, Rob keeps his Aubry flag raised high and we all join the Tiffany fan club. We dole out one last round of advice to various Survivor entities and leave no criticism of the host unmentioned.Send or receive advice by emailing us: Contact@PLZsurvive.comFollow us on YouTube for video episodes:plzsurvive.comCheck us out on all of our socials:https://linktr.ee/plzsurvivepodFollow Jess on threads:https://www.threads.com/@captainjrsFind out more about Rob:robschulte.comFind out more about Molly:mollymcaleer.comReferences:- SURVIVOR LIVE FINALE ERROR - How Jeff Probst Spoiled Part of the ‘Survivor’ Finale (NY Times)https://www.nytimes.com/2026/05/21/arts/television/survivor-50-finale-spoiled-jeff-probst.htmlI Was in the Room When Survivor 50 Accidentally Spoiled Part of the Finale on Live TV.

Inconceivable
This week on Plz Survive we chatter on about the Survivor 50's penultimate episode, "Inconceivable," as Jessica finds herself inconsolable about these torch snuffings. Molly reveals this podcast is not a member of the Jeff fan club. We also mourn on the departures of arguably two of the most seminal characters of the season - the audacious entertainer Rick Devens and the godmother of the beach, Cirie. Jessica also clears up the Plz Survive team's misconceptions on her thoughts about AubrySend or receive advice by emailing us: Contact@PLZsurvive.comFollow us on YouTube for video episodes:plzsurvive.comCheck us out on all of our socials:https://linktr.ee/plzsurvivepodFollow Jess on threads:https://www.threads.com/@captainjrsFind out more about Rob:robschulte.comFind out more about Molly:mollymcaleer.comReferences:The ultimate blindside: An oral history of the greatest Survivor moment ever (EW, 2019)https://ew.com/tv/2019/05/08/survivor-micronesia-oral-history-greatest-moment-ever/Nice Girls Don't Win podcast episode, (Cirie Fields on Parvati Shallow's podcast) (2025)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GK6XdgQV2fYCirie relives one of the most shocking exits in Survivor history (EW, 2017)https://ew.com/tv/2017/05/25/survivor-cirie-fields-game-changers-finale/Survivor Game Changers: Cirie Fields Is Here to Win By Any Means Necessary (*what her castmates say about her) (Parade, 2017)https://parade.com/547118/joshwigler/survivor-game-changers-cirie-fields/Cirie Fields: “There are bigger targets out there than little ol’ me.” (Reality Blurred, 2010)https://www.realityblurred.com/realitytv/2010/02/survivor-heroes-vs-villains-cirie_fields/Video Interview with Cirie after Survivor 16: Micronesia finale (2008)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjdoxOE-X_ERick Devens reveals an absolutely wild Survivor 50 fake Beware Advantage stunt he almost pulled (EW, 2026)https://ew.com/survivor-50-rick-devens-reveals-wild-fake-advantage-stunt-interview-11974508Rick Devens of Survivor reacts to getting $100k from Sia (EW, 2019)https://ew.com/tv/2019/05/16/survivor-rick-devens-sia-edge-of-extinction/Rick Devens' websitehttps://rickdevens.com/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Everyone Will Be Shooketh!
Survivor had warned us that Everyone Will Be Shooketh, and yet we discuss being the furthest thing from it regarding one of the castaways who, after making the same crucial mistake that sent them packing over ten years ago, was voted out this week.

A Side Dish Of Chaos
We meet Jimmy, a boy from the Internet who sells chocolate bars to make a little extra cash, and find out he's brought a portion of that cash to the set of Survivor 50. We also find out Molly's thoughts on watching her first auction, Rob asks where the show-mances are (he's such a Romber), and Jessica - instead of serving a side dish of chaos - this week as her advice, turns up the flame and serves an entree of advice to Jeff.Send or receive advice by emailing us: Contact@PLZsurvive.comFollow us on YouTube for video episodes:plzsurvive.comCheck us out on all of our socials:https://linktr.ee/plzsurvivepodFollow Jess on threads:https://www.threads.com/@captainjrsFind out more about Rob:robschulte.comFind out more about Molly:mollymcaleer.comReferences:Survivor Auction: Why we haven’t seen it in over 5 seasons (2018)https://survivingtribal.com/2018/12/31/jeff-probst-survivor-auction/Jeff Probst explains how they remade the Survivor auction (2023)https://ew.com/survivor-45-jeff-probst-explains-how-they-remade-auction-8402407Jeff Probst explains why there is no Survivor auction for season 46 (2024)https://ew.com/survivor-host-jeff-probst-explains-why-no-season-46-auction-8576398Survivor Auction analysis: Should you bid on the first covered item?

I Deserve All of This
We touch down on this historic episode of Survivor 50, where Jeff Probst himself finally takes his first stab at competing in a challenge. While we're still unsure on what it is he thinks he deserves, we do deliver a hearty serving a mockery and derision over the fact that it's taken until season 50 to test drive a challenge on his own show. Our annoyance with the honor and integrity crew increases as we wonder if they know what television show they're on, and Molly learns about jury management and the upcoming Surivor auction that Jessica and Rob think will be arriving next episode.

Double the Fun, Double the Demise
This week on Plz Survive we discuss doubling over with laughter while watching Coach try to escape his own lies, wonder about the logistics of sorting through two thousand coconuts, the social politics of selecting a challenge partner, Devens' idol gambit, and Stephenie hulking out on Christian during tribal council.

That's Not How I Play Survivor
Jessica explains to newbie Molly that the way Jonathan and Coach play the game, is, well, That's Not How I Play Survivor, as Rob agrees, We chat about how it would be nice if the honorable men would stop yelling at the women and culturally appropriating Japanese culture for long enough to actually form some strategy. The Plz Survive trio takes a stab at mapping out the current alliances and enemies solidifying on the beach, and wonder what other option Aubry had for her very public idol, and ends with some advice for Jonthan and Coach, and suggestions for retroactively renaming the 40s seasons.Follow us on YouTube for video episodes:plzsurvive.comCheck us out on all of our socials:https://linktr.ee/plzsurvivepodFollow Jess on threads:https://www.threads.com/@captainjrsFind out more about Rob:robschulte.comFind out more about Molly:mollymcaller.comReferences:NYT article from 2005 about Stephenie being on a Tribe of 1 on Survivor: Palauhttps://www.nytimes.com/2005/04/14/arts/television/and-now-a-survivor-first-a-tribe-with-one-member.htmlEW article from 2020 about Stephenie's experience on Survivor: Heroes vs Villains (included with raw footage of her memorable shoulder injury)https://ew.com/tv/survivor-stephenie-lagrossa-heroes-vs-villains/People Magazine article from 2026 where - embarassingly - Jonathan Young talks about how Boston Rob "trained" him for 4 years ahead of season 50https://people.com/survivor-jonathan-young-reveals-boston-rob-mariano-trained-him-4-years-exclusive-11921606Dee calls Rizo a "weasel"https://pagesix.com/2026/04/09/entertainment/survivor-50-star-dee-valladares-says-rizo-lied-to-her-during-pregame-call/Dee's post-game interview with Dalton Ross for EWhttps://ew.com/survivor-50-dee-valladares-reveals-major-post-game-cast-drama-interview-11946144See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
