Fresh off a wild night together in New York City kicking off the BWP51 Tour, Brice, Wendell, and Jack are reunited to break down everything from a premiere that gave us 21 new castaways, two tribes, Exile Island, permanent uncertainty, old school Survivor energy, and one VERY live Tribal Council. From first impressions already being put to the test to Lewis taking one for the team, Jenna fighting for her life, Brady getting fired up, two Shots in the Dark, and Aaliyah becoming the first person voted out of Survivor 51, there is already PLENTY to talk about. And somehow, somewhere along the way… we got lasagna. The Open Era said expect the unexpected, and after one episode, Survivor News is already off the rails. Baby, we’re just getting started!
