Day 37 and the second to the last immunity challenge has the players digging under a wall, walking over planks set up as an elevated maze, running through a maze and solving a puzzle shaped as hut. For the third time in a row Bob wins! Staying true to her strategy Sugar moves to vote Kenny [...]
Last week’s tribal council brought a lot of hurt feelings - Matty wants to know why Ken voted for him, Crystal wishes she would have voted out Matty while they could and Bob feels bad for tricking Kenny and told him he and Corrine didn’t use the idol because it was FAKE.
The reward challenge requires [...]
Mike has to go solo tonight since Marji was not feeling well — but the show must go on. To fill in for Marji, the live show chat folks helped out with their “Thousand Points of Marji”.
Show hightlights:
Bob and Peggy get a conjugal visit
Does Susie cease to exist when the camera is not on her?
Kenny’s [...]
A very sincere thank you to all of you for your patience in our absence and for your witty comments and kind words - thank you.
The tribes have merged but are still divided - Randy, Corrine and Bob vs. Mattie, Sugar, Crystal, and Ken. Tree mail brings them all envelopes of money which means one thing - [...]
While one tribe feasts on fish the other tribe enjoys a show as an elephant shows itself at camp. Then both are called to the Reward Challenge. The challenge is to throw pieces of fruit through holes in fences while a member of the opposite tribe tries to bat the fruit out of the way. Fong [...]
The teams are still settling in at camps when Jeff calls them together for a “game”. Rank each person on your tribe according to performance and….. stand on the posts in order of your rank. Kota’s rank is: Marcus first, Ace, Bob, Charlie, Jacquie, Corrine, Sugar, and last as she is least, Kelly. Fang ranked each [...]
This week the better half of the Armchair Survivor podcast is in Florida at a conference while Mike freezes his gabon off in Northeast Ohio but instead of doing a solo show, a couple of seasoned podcasters from the Juvenile Brain Trust came to fill their mother’s shoes while she was out.
MARJI! PLEASE COME HOME [...]
Survivor is back!… and so are we.
Contestants are dressed for interviews but instead dropped off in the middle of the fields of Africa. The first task is to pick teams - the eldest of the group are captains and teams are picked. There is the Fong Tribe (Red) - Gillian, Crystal, Susie, Matty, Randy, Dan, Danny [...]

It’s the last show of the season and what better way to spend our Memorial Day Weekend than with our fans. GoHskrs adn Roxan guest star on the show tonight.
Podcast: tcSURV080524.mp3
Talking with Mikey B (Michael Bortone) from Survivor. Tough (and cute) exterior with an artistic and funny interior. We talk about everything from the challenges, the other players and the Pondi. Mike (C) summed it up well, he is like James Dean, his flame was snuffed before his time.
Check out Mikey’s new [...]
Erik is talking to the woman and talking and talking….
After winning the immunity challenge he picks Amanda to join him on his reward and sends Parvarti to Exile. Natalie is annoyed.
To win the immunity challenge each player must take two ropes, pull them across a circle using the coordinates given to him/her and where [...]
The Family Show. For the reward challenge, Jeff asks the tribe questions that they have previously answered - if one gets the correct answer he/she get sto cut one of three ropes for another tribe member. Last person with a rope remaining wins. To add a twist - Jeff brings in family members. In the [...]
Sorry all, short podcast this Thursday.
The food auction returns and a few win food and one loses and heads off to Exile Island. As the girls eat chocolate cake and Erik licks it off their fingers, Jason is busy at Exile looking for the idol. After a short search he finds the idol!
Reward challenge brings [...]
Anthony Robinson, Survivor Fiji, is with us as we talk about the current Survivors, the game, and the chicks! Anthony still keeps us laughing and he and Mike have their moments. Then Mike and Marji talk about the Survivors and each of their chances of winning it all. As Anthony says, being popular is nice, [...]
Yea - we have two challenges again this week!
For the reward challenge the group is divided into two teams, one person swims out, crawls through a net tunnel and climbs a platform. On the platform are a series of symbols. The person studies the order of the symbols, swims back and then tries to duplicate [...]
The previews warned us and it came true - the merge is here! With Ami gone, Erik pledges his alliance to Ozzy as they get on the boat to join tribes. Erik pledges alliance, Ozzy says he’ll be honest - hmmm, doesn’t seem like a good trade to me.
Tribes are joined and questions [...]
Ozzy comes back from tribal and seems quite upset that he was marked as the team Leader - well, Ozzy if the shoe fits….
Treemail brings news of an immunity challenge but with a twist. Each team has to vote for one person of the other team to sit out the challenge and go to [...]
The conditions are rough in Micronesia! From the constant rain, bugs and smells to the whines coming from the players - all are suffering. Except over at the circle of life - the light shines on the mountain ridge and the Lion Theme music plays as Ozzy holds Erik up as his prodigy [...]
Well this season some past Survivors came back for a second chance - please give us one too! Thursday’s show was lost so here is take 2…
“Penner” is still feeling the pain of his cut but hangs in there for the reward challenge. Teams are playing to win 2 natives coming to camp [...]
After producing over 300 podcasts, I think I finally f*cked this one up but good.
If you caught our live show (9:30PMish Eastern Time) you got to experience one problem after another despite a call to tough guy and former Survivor, Billy Garcia (who is going to drop Fairplay on his face this April 5th, pin [...]
You knew after listening to our Thursday show we were going to eventually do this. Thanx to GoHskrs for helping with the clip.

Drop your buffs it is time for the Fans and Favs to mix it up. We no longer have the Fans and Favs but Airai and Malakal.
The reward challenge has teammates harnassed together chasing the other tribe’s harnassed couple hoping to get their flag. This challenge brought as many laughs to us as injuries to [...]
Both tribes are still bickering amongst themselves but show up for the reward challenge ready to go. They are competing for 3 hens and a rooster - wooo hoo! 4 swimmers from each team swim to a platform and then dive to retrieve lettered coconuts from a cage, once they get all 10 [...]
The Fans return to camp after they blindsided Mikey by voting off Mary - Mikey tells Joel that it was a big mistake - not sure if Joel belived him though.
Warpaint and a Comfort Catalog are delivered for the tribes to prepare for the reward challenge. Teams line up on opposite ends of the [...]
We went live all! Hang in there with us this week - we taped our first live show and are getting use to the change. Come join in on the action next Thrusday at 9:30 EST.
The Fans may have won the challenge last week but they are a divided camp. The younger 7 vs. the [...]
Have you ever wondered how we record Armchair Survivor? Wonder no more.
Have you ever wished you could put your two cents worth into the commentary? Wish no more.
Starting 2.14.2008 we will be recording Armchair Survivor live. You can listen and you can even participate. Best of all, it’s free. That’s [...]
The fans ride to the island and are greeted with a surprise - they are playing against past Survivor players, the Favorites. They welcome each (or almost each) of the favorites with cheers and then the game begins.
Two idols, one for each tribe, are awaiting the person who can find them first. Johnny [...]
or better known as Doe Eyes, Schemer, Little Winning Personality.
Todd gets the $1 million
James gets the $100,000
and Denise gets $50,000
Congrats to them all.
Fans vs. Favorites - the next season of Survivor. Hope you all join us then.
Thank you everyone for another great Survivor season! Happy Holidays.
Podcast: tcSURV071216.mp3
We are getting to the end of the 40 days and emotions are running high so what does Mark B. do - stir things up. For reward, the challenge was to use a Chines crossbow to throw arrows at a board with blocks containing each of the remaining survivor’s names. The person whose name was [...]
Family members join the Survivors for the reward challenge. They have to go through a maze, blindfolded, and get to the center - first couple to get there wins. Denise and her husband work together and win a boat trip, meal and phone call from home. Denise picks Todd and Amanda to go along leaving [...]
The time for naked frolicking is over. A twist at last show’s tribal council sends the tribe to a reward challenge instead of back to camp. The first person to answer 5 questions about Chinese culture wins a trip to a temple, food and a night away. A spectacular reward! Peih-Gee [...]
The drama continues.
To win the reward of a cruise, food and comfortable sleep the tribe is again divided into two and are faced with the challenge of bouncing a ball on drums through an obstacle course - first team to get three balls into the bin wins. Erik, Frosti, Amanda and Courtney were the clear [...]
After Jamie’s attempt to play the hidden immunity idol she did more than give us a good laugh, she revealed to all the players that there is a hidden idol in play this season.
Don’t let your boat sink - the goal of this week’s reward challenge. One player sat in their boat while the [...]
It was the week of the Idols - James got the 2nd hidden immunity idol from his camp, Jamie searched through his bag and found that he had two idols, Jamie found an idol - oh, no that was just a piece of firewood. James did we see you pass out from joy?
The tribes [...]
Last week we were furious that a team would throw a challenge - this week we were amazed by the strategy behind it.
After wining the reward challenge Fei Long welcomes back, ahh, I mean kidnaps, James and he reunites with his tribe. Todd takes advantage of the situation and tells James to give him [...]
The tribes get a message to pick 2 warriors from the opposing tribe that would best help them - Fei Long picks Frosti and Sherea, Zhang Hu picks Aaron and James. Each get their picks and the tribes have been mixed up.
Zhang Hu decides to try to win the numbers in a merge by throwing the next two [...]
Both tribes go to tribal council! …for the reward challenge. Fei Huang Long proved to have more talent moving fireballs with large chop sticks and won a pretty cool reward of having a Chinese family teach them how to fish and to bring them food.
Time for dress up at immunity this week. Tribes dressed up in [...]
Camp life is filled with mundane things but the challenges brought lots of excitement. The reward challenge was a physical fight to push people off the boat - it looked brutal. In the end the Zhan Hu Women Warriors were victorious. Zhan Hu kidnapps Leslie and during girl talk at the pool [...]
It has all begun!
The players take trains, planes, and boats into China to meet Jeff at the temple where he greets them with a Welcome Ceremony and then takes all their possessions except the clothes on their backs. In return he gives them each a bag and a buff separating the tribes as such:
Zhang [...]
September 19, 2007 marks the premier of “Kid Nation” on CBS and of course here at the Armchair TubeCasts Lab we can just sit still about things like this — hence “Armchair Kid Nation”. Michael teams up with daughter Gabrielle to talk about and hopefully learn something from this new television show. Even if the [...]
Watching our specimens is getting more and more interesting. Once again, Pirate Master is displaying human hierarchy in ways that Survivor and The Apprentice has not. Add the Ghost Crew and this episode of Pirate Master has become an all-time-favorite. Mark Burnett has really given folks who study people a lot on which to chew.
So [...]
Tim and Nicole, Rob and Amber and now Joe Don and Nessa — well, kinda. It looks like Mark Burnett decided to make this show about pirates and not love. But there is more: this episode of Pirate Master is starting to show the folly of saying too much and using bull shit to cover [...]
Hot looking people run around scantly clad on a pirate ship — of course, that’s interesting to Marji and Mike (in more ways than one) but what about the social dynamics? We discuss how Pirate Master has an interesting and somewhat more realistic (by way of grouping the people) social dynamics structure than both Survivor [...]
Azmyth is Captian. Azmyth is not Captian. Azmyth is Captian again. He’s not the most Captain-est Captain on the show (a return counts more than a consecutive term — I think) but who is really running the show? Further more, it seems like the more you try to regulate people the [...]
We’re starting to see that despite the reputation Pirates have of being scoundrels there is actually a kind of honor among them. Further more, there seems to be more unity among the pirates (or at least fewer diverse alliances) despite there being no official teams (unlike The Apprentice or Survivor).
Podcast: tcPM070621.mp3
So long Joe Don — the pirates have traded in your tyranny for a benevolent despot — and he chose an even more benevolent officer (more benevolent to you, at least). Also, Azmyth turns the black spot into an incentive to improve. It’s like Saddam Hussein goes to Haight-Ashbury. It’s a kinder, gentler kind of [...]
Captain Joe-Don is taking a page right out of the 16th Century Guide for Human Resources Managers (or modern day media station managers).
Podcast: tcPM070607.mp3
Mark Burnett is at it again and we just can’t resist. We’re not sure if this is going to become it’s own podcast but after watching this we really liked what we saw so we decided to throw this out to see what comes of it. What do you think?
Podcast: tcPM070531.mp3
Earl Cole!
Sometimes in poker a big gamble pays off and sometimes it doesn’t. Yau-Man gave away a car in order to get immunity at the final four but as he was a strategy king, strategy was played against him and Dreamz won immunity but didn’t live up to his promise. Yau-Man was voted [...]
Boo weaves a secret path to the waterhole but bigger news is at camp where they are talking about voting him out next.
Finally, the car challenge - the race was hard but it came down to Yau, Stacy and Boo as winners of a new truck. Yau slices through the rope to win! [...]
Back at camp after tribal council has Earl mad that the vote didn’t go his way and Alex in shock that he is still around.
The reward challenge was one of the most disturbing - hunks of pork hanging from ropes and the contestants have to chew off as much meat as they can. Boo [...]
We may have to add another prediction category - how will Boo get hurt this week - poor guy!
Wow - it was another episode filled with strategy and excitement. The tribes had to divide into two again for the reward challenge and the winners all got to go overnight to a spa. Stacy’s [...]
How in tune were the Survivors with each other - that was what the reward challenge was all about but that talent was needed for tribal council.
Cassandra won the reward challenge and got a trip on a luxury yacht. She was still playing the game though and picked Yau-Man, Boo and Dreamz to join [...]
Tree Mail directs both tribes to gather up just their personal belongings and head to Exile Island. At the top of the tower the teams find new buffs and directions to go back to Moto aka Camp Luxury. New team, Bula Bula, is greeted at camp Moto with nothing but flint, a pot and fishing [...]
Alex, Mookie and Edgardo search for the hidden immunity idol on there beach while Dreamz and Lisi sleep. The boys find the idol and do a silent victory cheer. Though they didn’t hide a fake idol - Mookie did play Lisi and continued to “help” her search and dig.
For the reward of a [...]
Part two of two of our conversation with Anthony Robinson.
The quiet and reserved Anthony was criticized by Rocky for not speaking up. GUESS WHAT ROCKY!!!
Anthony was doing Rocky a favor by keeping quiet because if Rocky thought that he couldn’t take Rita and Michelle’s conversations about lip gloss, he would probably be put into [...]
Another great episode. Lisi joins “Boys Beach” and claims that she has been broken and now rebuilt. On to better things… Earl and Yau are still working as a team so as Earl takes the tribe to find the lost boat he give Yau time to search for the idol. In [...]

A mix-up with Survivors and we have new teams, more action, a new challenge which all make for a better Survivor episode tonight.
Earl and Edgardo step forward and become the first to pick a new team member. In the end Earl’s team becomes Moto and Edgardo’s, Ravu. Lisi isn’t picked and is ready [...]
Part two of two of our conversation with Rita Verreos.
She’s the hot mommy of Survivor Fiji. Of course, motherhood is a tough gig, as is Survivor, but we found out that Rita Verreos is a lot tougher than one would think. During her stay on Survivor she not only faced starvation and dehydration [...]

Here’s karma for you - post on the blog and then we drag you to the podcast! Good or bad karma - you decide. We are joined tonight by George (GoHskrs) and Amy (SheHskrs) - thank you for being great guests.
On Survivor this week, Yau-Man has another clue for the hidden immunity idol [...]
In the previous episode we started an interview with Bruce Kanegai from Survivor Exile Island. Here is the conclusion of this interview. If you missed that you can find it here.
Podcast: tcSURV070305.mp3
Rocky and Dreamz still haven’t found their “shut-up” buttons but they are safe for another week. Ravu starts off the reward challenge strong but Moto works better together and win again. Whew, more food and pillows for them, and how were they “surviving” without that king sized bed?
No better luck for Ravu at [...]
Michelle starts fire at Ravu and it looks like the tribe is re-energized for the first reward challenge. The challenge combined slip-and-slide with skeet ball and in the end Moto rules again. The food challenge is back! Mookie rocks at eating peanut worms but blames Anthony who can’t eat the pig snouts [...]
We get to spend more time getting to know the Survivors and their personalities - Mike is intrigued, Marji is.. not.
Moto is enjoying Camp Luxury, everyone except Boo who depsite the relaxing accomodations managed to hurt himself three times - or that is all that the editors showed us. While in Camp Sucks Ravu [...]
Survivor Fiji starts with a new twist. The Survivors paddle ashore on their boats and are greeted with….nothing. Jeff finally appears flying overhead in a plane and drops off instructions to them. They build a shelter, are divided into teams, and then face their first challenge. Moto wins immunity! Back [...]

The big surprise is no surprise — at least as far as who the final two goes (let’s get real — it was only a final two). But, there were some other surprises. Believe it or not, Sundra, Nate and Adam (yes, we were impressed with something Adam did) got kudos from us tonight.
Since [...]
Mike finally gets his mud challenge but - ewwww they made this one disturbing. Ozzy proves he has another talent - mud carrier and wins Immunity. The twist was that he didn’t get to pick who went with him on reward the top three placers go. So Ozzy, Yul and Parvati go [...]
Disappointment in seeing Jonathan go before Adam and Parvati - but alas the show must still go on…
Parvati slices her finger chopping a coconut and the medics are called in for the emergency stitch (yes, all that drama for ONE stitch). On to exciting things - the family comes in for the reward challenge - [...]
The reward challenge brings rewards to a few and a trip to Exile Island to Candice. Yul admits to all that he has the immunity idol - was he asked, NO, he volunteered the information, why? The Immunity challenge involves math and Adam still wins - WOW! Back at camp the claws come out and [...]
Happy Thanxgiving folks.
Personally, we’re thankful someone got the proverbial turkey ax.
And, we’re thankful for wine tonight.
Let’s get this out of the way (I think we’ll need it): The views expressed on this audio program are merely our opinions and not based on any real facts or research.
Due to Thanksgiving day family obligations, we were [...]
The message in the bottle sent another tribe mate out to sea.
Jonathan becomes the tribe’s hunter, fisher and gatherer in hopes to become invaluable to the tribe. However, even without all the sustance provided by Jonathan, Raro still can’t follow the compass and dig up the boxes fast enough to win Reward. 1, 2, [...]
WOW new challenges and new tribes this week. Candice and Jonathan are the mutineers that jump ship and join Raro. Meanwhile, Aitu may be weak in the numbers but they are strong in the challenges and win both reward and immunity this week. Discussion over who is loyal to Raro leads them [...]
Catalog shopping for peanut butter and potatoes - will the fun never cease for the Survivors? Aitu enjoys peanut butter while Raro enjoys blaming Brad for not electing to swim - hmmm, wouldn’t a more appropriate thing be to blame Rebecca for her performance in the challenge? A close challenge for immunity but Jenny turns [...]

Double elimination this week and a doubly hard challenge. The girls gave everyone a show and Candice proved she is one strong chick! Aitu proves their strength again and wins. The reward is going to tribal council first, voting out one of their own and then getting to have a feast of lamb and bread. AND [...]
The boys are shook up and start working around the Raro camp while the girls at Aitu are comparing armpit hairs (ewwww!). Raro pulls their weight at the reward challenge and wins the team food and wine. Aitu gets adventurous and Flicka, Ozzy and Coi Boi take the boat out and land at Raro’s camp. Aitu [...]
Aitu rocked this week. Winning both the reward and immunity challenges and showing that they are strong! Raro is divided between the workers and the boys or is it the flirter with the boys and the others? Nope - it comes down to the girls vs. the boys. Boys, while you were flaunting your testosterone the [...]
Marji is joined by a guest host, Joannie, as Mike is in Ontario California at the Portable Media Expo.
The teams are mixed up a bit (both on our show and on theirs).
Podcast: tcSURV060928.mp3
With the combination reward and immunity challenge we had more time to get to know the tribes. In some cases that is good, some cases not. The Yellow Team finally made fire, the Blue Team was still too lazy to build shelter, the Green Team has a migraine specialist and the Red Team were so [...]
The new season starts! A great first episode - the tribes are given 2 minutes to gather supplies from the boat then they are kicked off and sent to shore on little rafts. The tribes all work to build shelter and get food and work to win the challenge so they get fire. Three win [...]
We’re back! The tribes have been announced and we are here to talk about them. Four tribes of five people each, broken down by race. There will be the African-American tribe in yellow buffs, Asian-American tribe in the green buffs, the Hispanic tribe in the red buffs and the Caucasian-American tribe in the blue buffs. What will [...]
We got the opportunity to talk with fellow Ohioan Susan Vaughn who was on The Amazing Race. She gave us some insight into the production of reality TV as well as a bit of dishing on some now-famous stars including the infamous Rob and Amber.
You will soon be able to catch this interview and [...]
We sadly end this season with fond memories of “crazy” Shane, silly Cirie, Captain America, monster teeth Danielle and of course we can’t forget the winner, Aras (or can we). The challenges were again tough and Danielle again didn’t stay true to her word. Aras and Danielle faced the jury who proved to be rather [...]
Wild show full of lots of drama. Due to technical difficulties with Marji’s brain they didn’t get the show taped so you get to hear Mike’s commentary of what happened (not bad even without the Tums to help) with Marji’s random comments thrown in. We have interesting discussion about this awesome show and the complex [...]
Tonight was all about Playing For Love. Terry won reward, picked who got some love and who got nothing (that would be you Danielle). Shane got his “Boston” fix, Terry snuggled, Cirie showed HB camp life and Aras got a hug - awwww how cute! Terry won Immunity and again showed us his super powers. [...]
Crazy Shane is back in action and has added a blackberry and crazy walk to his routine - okay, the crazy walk could be due to his chafing. Either way he is a trip! Cirie shows us that she is not physically a great player but strategically she is beating them all. Terry continues his [...]
The second medical emergency in Survivor history takes out Bruce! Thank heavens he will be okay AND back for the jury.
We talk about the show and how well Mark Burnett placed this week’s reward challenge and showed us some cracks in the former Casaya tribe. It was interesting how Aras threw the challenge and “let” Cerie win and [...]
Terry, the American Gladiator, wins immunity again! After an emotional reward challenge where 4 members got to watch videos from home, Mark Burnett brings another twist to the immunity challenge. The Survivors got to choose whether to compete in the challenge or sit it out and eat cheeseburgers and fries. Aras, Terry and Sally are [...]
WOW tonight’s show made up for the boring show last week! Deals (good deals) were flying around and everyone was playing a good game. Terry is still dominating the strategizing and the immunity challenges. Some players got breakfast in bed, some stuck in the sand, and one voted off - bye Austin we’ll I’ll miss [...]
Survivor is back from its vacation and we’re back from ours.
We?re feeling a little bit out of the loop since we didn?t get to see all of the CBS build up via commercials and other promotional vehicles. Further more, we?ve done a week of Disney (3 days parks, 4 days cruise) so we?ve been on [...]
Special edition Wednesday Re-cap show. We didn’t see too many new scenes - just more of the same Bobby sleeping or pooping & Shane being crazy. I did learn though that unless you want to pay big money, don’t sing the “Happy Birthday” song in any media forum. How much did that cost Survivor???
We had [...]
Reward and Immunity all tied into one challenge and the winner takes all - reward of bar-b-que with the locals, immunity from tribal council, the ability to pick the person from the other team that will be exiled AND that will be immune from being voted off. After a tough challenge CASAYA wins. We talk [...]
Rice, beans, skulls and coffins - the fun continues on Survivor this week. The lesson learned though is don’t drink the wine.
In this episode we discuss the reward and immunity challenges and then hit on these topics:
“Swear on my kid” vs. “I’ll never lie to you”. Is either of them more or less sincere? What would you [...]
John Lennon did it ? and now Austin has done it too. Compare yourself to Jesus Christ. It?s the Christ of the 21st century: Austin Christ.
In this episode we discuss:
When choosing who to vote out, what logic do you use (yes, we?re talking about you Terry!)
Why don?t people finish what they start (why do the [...]
On this installment of Survivor Exile Island we discuss
What is more important on Survivor — strength or attitude?
If not Bruce, who would have you sent to Exile Island?
What about using “womanly charms” in trying to win?
We also speculate as to how far has Shane’s mind has deteriorated without tobacco, Cerie vs Ms Ronnie (from The Feast [...]
The second installment of Survivor Exile Island comes with some new twists which cause us to ask the questions, “should you vote someone out just because he wants to quit?” and “should you really be making big alliances this early in the game?”
In the mean time, we think Bruce is starting to emerge as more than [...]
It’s the seasaon premier and we’re back with not only a new show this week but we also have a new web site, message board and theme song.
This week we forego the topics of discussion as we usually do, to introduce the new season and go over what we have to work with. We discuss [...]
