Good commentary, funny hosts, I love the Trump bashing, don’t get the hate.

I think they should troll trump and his gross cult members even more🤷🏼‍♀️

All the low ratings are that the hosts complain too much and are too mean. That’s my favorite thing about this podcast.

There is so much to complain about in survivor, so I don’t care if they complain. But one of the guys hosting on 47.10 needs to reexamine how he speaks about women. I understand that he is upset that a Sue is red, but the way he spoke about her is sexist and ageist. It’s not enough to be blue in name; he should learn that the way he speaks upholds gender norms and the marginalization of certain people. I had to turn the podcast off.

All they do is complain about how they dislike every person in the show, it’s so annoying.

This is the podcast for you! I’ve been listening for several years and I think this is my last season. I can’t remember the last time they’ve enjoyed anything on the show and it’s become painful to listen to. They just talk in circles about how much they dislike every thing about the episode and it sounds like they should probably find a new show to watch.

Used to be a favorite survivor podcast but 1. Stupid veiled political commentary bugs me..hello Florida and your profile…who cares. Stop it already. 2. You seem to hate everything.

I have been an avid listener for some time but, these guys could seem to care less anymore. They don’t like anyone on the show, they don’t appreciate any game play, they don’t seem to enjoy the job anymore ? What’s the point

They are kind of mean

10 minutes in and we still know nothing about the season. Do better.

Finally!! Someone said what I have been thinking. Maddie played a terrible game and deserved to be voted out! I feel like I have been taking crazy pills listening to everyone talk about what a good game she played, when her moves were objectively bad and directly led to her vote out.

It’s seriously mystifying. Do you want to listen to a survivor podcast made by a guy who doesn’t like survivor? Why would such a thing even exist? The person making this podcast might need to be screened for clinical depression. It’s like we’re watching totally different shows

Like teachers who are so close to retirement they don’t care anymore. Can’t think of the last time they said they enjoyed an episode. Time to pass the torch

Season 43 started with the hosts mentioning that they’ve been doing this for a long time and sort of forgot that this season was even going to start. There’s ZERO excitement about the show. For someone who looks forward to hear from other fans this was terrible. It’s obvious they’ve been doing this for too long and should probably let someone else host for a while.

By far the best pod about survivor. Not pablum, not biased, not offensive and not trying to sell you crap. Overall charming!

LOVE this podcast so much!!

If “Bitter Jury” was a podcast it’s them

I never miss an episode!!! Whether they are covering an old season or a current season, this podcast is such a treat. Highly recommend!

Was looking for a survivor podcast & decided to try this one when I saw all the angry Trump fans in the reviews. Turns out it’s great!

So I’m a super fan and I have been with these guys since the beginning because they were good. But at the end of last years show for the season they decided to let everyone know they should not vote for Trump and brought politics into a podcast about Survivor. So now I’m listening to the latest episode and they decide to bring race into it. They have before but I have again let it be. So they brought up the fact a team dropped so far back in a challenge because you had to jump and grab a flag/key and they decided to blame it on him being white. Imagine if it was a black guy and they blamed them being behind in the swimming part because the guy was black?? And I’m telling you THERE WAS ZERO reason to bring it up that he was white and couldn’t jump Just like THERE WAS ZERO reason to bring Trump up and we should not be voting for him???? So I’m out. I’m unsubscribing because they now have some really good competition for a podcast of the greatest network show of all time!!

...it’s kind of worth listening to satisfy your desperate craving for more Survivor content. Hosts rotate and a couple are actually capable of delivering interesting insight with some degree of humility that makes them really fun to listen to. However, others come across as super arrogant and present their takes as the gospel. They also spend time trying to “subtlety” elevate their podcast and style above other much better podcasts. To be fair, they admit they’re only interested in spewing their own opinions (which they do with a decidedly self-important frat boy vibe). Always last on the list of Survivor podcast options, but on the list nonetheless.

Really enjoy the podcast but every season they spoil the winner. I’m not sure how they know who is going to win. They knew Tommy was going to win this last awful season and they knew nick was going to win DvG.

I listen to this podcast each Friday and it’s my favorite Survivor podcast, but Tommy was announced as the winner as a spoiler without any warnings. That was frustrating. Please don’t spoil!

I liked Emma and some are better than others - but a lot of negativity and condescension- not a good look at times. Listening today I wonder why there was even a podcast - it seemed like both just don’t like it and only rip on it. It’s easy to complain about things when you’re not accountable for anything. Just need a better attitude really. Listening one more time, barf. Half the podcast was about quitting the show. Then quit the show and don’t Podcast - the world isn’t going to stop when you do. Just more snooty comments and speaking down towards people. Really bad attitude.

Chinese food for Thanksgiving, it’s on

I like this podcast a lot and have been following some of the hosts since the AV Club days. Good analysis, but I could do without the political commentary and condescension. Plenty of podcasts for that. Otherwise it’s a good snarky take on survivor.

Was a fantastic listen, and loved how you guys don’t give an F on what you say. To the person ‘offended’ by the word retarded, get over it. So, as mentioned by others, hosts rotate and rarely the same back to back. I don’t have a big issue w it, but it’s nice hearing consistency in opinions from the show. Then, decided as I live in Ohio, since we’re stupid according to purple Andy, it’s not worth me listening to them, nor do they seem to want ppl like me to listen. So, farewell, I’ve since unsubscribes

Listened for the first time today and heard the word “retarded” used as an insult. So disappointing.

Can’t get enough survivor

So much love for this podcast. The weekly deep-dives always bring the insight and the funny from incredibly likable hosts. Thanks for doing what you do, guys.

This is the “we know better” podcast. So much negativity, so much condescension, so snarky and sarcastic about EVERYTHING. This is the sad identity of your podcast. It’s become the “Everything that’s wrong with Survivor” podcast but you must know this. Right?

Wow someone is seriously jealous of Rob Cesternino. This is not the podcast to listen to if you want entertaining banter or great game analysis. I can't believe the way they make fun of Stephen Fishbach as a writer, wah wah, have you seen how small the word count is on his people blog?? Sorry that you can't handle when other people are more successful than you.

When you have heard the same canned opinions from other podcasts, come enjoy the purple perspective. These guys have the super fan knowledge, but are honest enough to call out the flaws in the game and the editing. Check out Episode 3 of SurvivorHHH to see them explain the predictable patriarchy that surrounds Survivor. A terrific change from the norm!

'I don't like watching losers' An actual quote by one of the hosts after 45 minutes of them crying about Malcolm being voted out.....Malcolm the now 3 time loser.

Hard to describe because the hosts seem to rotate so this podcast has no one personality or point of view that comes to mind for me to comment on. While it's not the first podcast I turn to after an episode, it's welll worth adding to your feeds and you should give it a listen.

The Purple Rock Survivor Podcast is the best Survivor podcast there is, bar none. It’s so intellectually stimulating that, after listening this morning, I didn’t even need my usual cup of coffee. Let’s see Cesternino do that.

I recommend this podcast to anyone who watches Survivor.

I am proud to have been a small part of this great podcast.

Really good podcast about Survivor and strategy. Also have interviews with a few Survivors that are interesting.
