Wow I had no idea Shan was that salty. How hypocritical of her that she can't get past her elimination when she burned so many people in the pre-merge. She seriously needs to cool down.
Literally I was a big of fan of her premerge but once the merge and after seeing her social media and ponderosa its like she literally goes out of her way to be as unlikable and narcissistic as possible
No surprise for most have guessing. Curious if she's having a hard time back in the world. Perry with so many people that have seen how she acted on the show
I started the season hoping Ricard was the first boot from his tribe, and by the last episode I was hoping he’d clutch the challenges out to win it. It was a wild season and edit for him.
Was always confused about why people like Shan so much when I thought she was just a very unaware villain who never was that good at the game during the show... but after this she just reads like a below average player who is also a horrible sport.
@@uglyaniimals I did think she would do better than she did (was expecting her to get clipped around F7) but the thing I hated most about her play was that she pretty much tried to play a villain and then acted like the victim any time someone made a move against her. Its one thing if that is the vocal strategy to play the victim intentionally to garner pity, but to be so petty you wont even talk with someone who made a move to take you out and finish better? Zero respect.
@@e_eyster i think its the idea that she was very likable to begin with and seemed very smart and cunning. People generally dont like to change their opinion on somone and will take much more shit from someone they like vs someone they dont
I had zero problems with Shan on the show, but when I originally saw the Ponderosa videos it made me completely change my opinion of her. Every one else just trying to have a good time, but nooo she gotta be that way.
I felt like she had a very controlling game in the beginning but i didnt mind her too much, but like she is being hella mean to ricardo, Ricardo dont deserve all that
Same. Shan is so salty. She thinks so highly of herself it is kinda cringe to watch. Also her switching careers to become an influencer because "it's god's calling" to her... 🤡🤡🤡
@@brauliomouraopacheco1633 literally 2 million views were lost this season. Millions of people hate this season. Sucks to be the odd few who somehow enjoyed this racially charged, twist and turn, cameo, constant unnecessary flashback into people's personal lives of a season.
Allegedly the 30 days to 26 delay was because there was an issue with Jeff’s flight or quarantining or something that forced him to be in lockdown those extra 4 days, I think Voce said in his ROBH deep dive interview that Jeff first met the cast with full Covid gear on which made him think he hadn’t been cleared to be off quarantine.
Sad that jeff mentions fun... my favorite moments that make me happiest and laughing are human moments. Things like the players doing a morning news skit together on marquesas, singing songs, flirting with eachother, etc. I also love learning more about peoples live and personalities. And those moments ended up on the cutting room floor this season
lmao, I never bought the whole 'Xander and Laina hate each other' storyline lol. They remind me of my middle school students that crush on each other but don't know how to express it so they just fight all day.
People love to say Xander lost to the political climate despite the fact literally every person post game except shockingly Liana has stated what a non threat he was to the actual game. Heather Erika Danny Deshawn Ricard knew it, Shantel knew it, Evvie and Tiffany thought he was clueless, hell even Naseer didn’t like his gameplay.
I thought he was the by far winner from watching the show had multiple big moves multiple wins in challenges the girl that one they barely showed until the end so didn't think she did anything but be in the background shows how different it is actually being there with them
@@dx-dragon4399 he didn’t make any big moves except giving his idol to Tiffany which ultimately was pointless since he never actually used his advantages meaningful or talked to tiffany and evvie after that
@@devondonato4609 when the girl tried to take his idol from him and he was like I don't but you can have this fake is the biggest moment in the season that I can think of but that's just my personal opinion the winner they should have showed us more she seemed like a back round character than a winner
The equality mandate had nothing to do with sexuality: you said "mandating half of every cast must not be straight white people", but it was in regard to race not sexuality :)
If you haven't watched the Tiffany RHAP podcast, I strongly recommend it, the comment section were saying it was the best interview they have ever watched.
Man I don’t understand the bitterness if I was playing the game and someone blindsided me with a wicked move I’d highly respect it cause all I’d want is everyone to play the game as hard as I would. People let personal feelings overlook the fact more people then just you are also playing the game. You all signed up for this just accept someone got you.
@@jeffreygarty8214 So you wouldn't vote for someone because they blindsided you even if they played the best game? You say you wouldn't be bitter, yet that's exactly what a bitter person would do lol
@@tmm4195 Did they play the best game? the premise of the show from the beginning has been the jury decides what the rules are and people have to weigh social decisions because you have to later turn around and ask for their vote. IMHO the lack of accountability for blindsides has made the game far more about luck and less about social maneuvering.
@@OnceUponAnIsland Thank you for responding. I saw a clip of Ricardo and the all the jury members. I was confused on where it was broadcasted or if I could find it on line to watch it. I have never seen it before and it looked really interesting
The birds aren't dumb - they aren't used to humans. This is actually very disturbing. I live in South Africa and game reserves make sure the animals are accustomed to cars - rangers at a game reserve that I go to drove around during the highest Covid lockdown to make sure the animals are accustomed to cars
I hate this argument. Vocabulary isn't just a switch, you can't turn words off instantly. Jeff was willing to make an effort to push the show towards inclusivity, but we are all human and you have to understand that it's not as easy as saying "oh I'm gonna stop saying this word now". A good example would be people who say "like" or "literally" a lot. Sure, they can say they want to stop saying those words, but it's inevitable that those words will slip out subconsciously a ton, especially if it's RIGHT after deciding to make a change. If people are truly willing to change, then over time they will get better at it, but it takes WAY longer than 25 days to change your vocabulary.
shan, ricard, liana, and xander for second chance 2 i personally hate liana but she hates xanders face so we gotta punish her for disrespecting the xan
But wait didn't shan even admit she and Ricard made a deal they'd be allies until one of them knew it had to end and get the other. She cannot be mad at Ricard when he chose a good time to remove a strong player. Probably his closest rival. Had those two made it I think it had been a close vote. My vote would be ricard winning, Shane was very..... bossy and annoying to me and visibly lost her cool when people didn't listen to her. maybe the confessionals scewed it cause she did at one point basically say the people she guides at church are dumb and they need to do things her way..... I think. So to me she came off as a very unaware villain, when I think Ricard was the actual brains of their duo. And seeing how salty she got from losing that she essentially refused to speak to her 'best friend' in the game cause he did the smart thing and had permission to do it when he saw a good moment for it just shows she is a sore loser.
He said something along the lines of "the winning team will not have tribal council, no matter what" and then when Erika smashed the glass, the winning team had to vote someone off.
"Guys" was such a forced bit. I'm glad to see my conspiracy theory brain was wrong and production did not have Ricard speak up later. I just feel it was a weird attempt to add to the 'new and improved/modernized survivor' line they kept spewing around. If Jeff was actually concerned he'd have changed it on his own, and nobody would have noticed. One words does not make the show good or bad. But making random twists people can't predict and fight against or strategize around, Survivor will just do that though, even though Jeff has admitted stuff like that splits the players and fans.

Ya it's a game you can be friends afterwards
I loved Shan she was a fun villain to witness play
Also, she’s a pastor. Isn’t the word of God about forgiveness? Or was she humming her little song when being taught that?
The least surprising secret for me was that Shan was a mega sore loser. I kinda saw that one coming. She came off as a self righteous narcissist.
No surprise for most have guessing. Curious if she's having a hard time back in the world. Perry with so many people that have seen how she acted on the show
I agree with you. If she really is a minister, I would not want to go to her church.

You know you’re obsessed with survivor when you’ve already heard everything from this video, watched all the secret scenes, podcasts, etc lol
This was a really fun and strong cast of newcomers. Heather is freaking adorable and I'm so bummed we didn't see more of her on the show!

I never liked Shan and this just validates my opinion on her. Shes very unlikable IMO
Probably one of if not my least likeable person in all 41 seasons
Exactly she felt so entitled and like it was her birthright to win the game
@@parkerduncan978 and that showed very early on and i couldnt stand it. I found her very fake with ppl also

Interesting. The Voce interview came out after I had finished this video so I didn't listen to it.
Shan was a real salt shaker 😂😂😂
Also JD is not friends with Shan due to the same reasons Shan isn't friends with anyone who blindsided her
😂😂

Wish we could've saw more of Genie she is such an interesting character
I think we can guess why they cut out her backstory about her grandma escaping a communist country that everyone is afraid to offend 😅
lmao, I never bought the whole 'Xander and Laina hate each other' storyline lol. They remind me of my middle school students that crush on each other but don't know how to express it so they just fight all day.
Tiffany may be my new favorite non winner. She's just a GOLDMINE!
Her interview is amazing. Totally worth the listen along with Ricards.
Been waiting for this video. Evvie was definitely my favorite from this season, but it's a hard choice with such a great cast.
Naseer made that song. Really need to see him in an all-star season
That is Naseer!
I feel like Evie has to come back! What a great character. I really liked this cast.
She is just so happy to be there
genuinely love evvie, hopefully theres a "new era" all stars season soon, definitely think they should be on there
The secret that surprised me the most was Heather running.
Naseer said in an interview that production took his idol from him (post-game), and that the contestants are no longer allowed to keep them.
That sucks, he seemed so pumped to find it.
They wanna bring it back for ghost island 2 :/
They more than likely placed it in the Survivor Auction.
Kelley Wentworth said the same thing about one of her seasons (pretty sure it was about Cambodia but I haven’t actually watched Cambodia so not sure)
The new idols looks pretty terrible anyways, I don't mind production taking them away so that they can be reused in the future
And Shan is a PASTOR!!! Doesn’t God say to practice forgiveness??? This is why practicing a formal religion doesn’t mean you’re a “good person.”
Super outwardly religious are some of the most hypocritical people I’ve ever seen in my life, time and time and time again
Shan, man. if you think you’re the mafia pastor, own your game. own you’re a villain. don’t be so salty that people wanted you out

@@dx-dragon4399that’s good tv. The jury doesn’t really care about it especially when he had no input on the actual game
I swear people hype up Xander so much I do not understand it
I learned more about Heather in this video than the show.
That song from the jury was lowkey so good
Thank you for this! I don't have time to listen to every podcast and ponderosa video and this was a great catchup!
Lol neither do I, so this gives me a reason/time to listen to a bunch.
Shan did what she did to Ricard because it us what narcissists do when they don't get what they want from someone who demonstrates loyalty.
survivor needs to chill with the constant advantages bein on screen 24/7. people wanna see heathers fake dreams, not a million advantages and twists
This just reinforces the feeling that some in this season are just the worst. Including Jeff
Genuinely the ponderosa sea shanty is a delight
The survivor shanty was perfect
Am I the only one that noticed that now the canteens are camouflaged hydroflasks? 🤣
I was hoping one of the secrets would be why we did not see Dr Joe this season!
Now that you mention it, I don't recall seeing him in the Ponderosa videos. I wonder why?
JD even lied post show, Danny said post show he actually kept Naseer BECAUSE he didn’t want him to get an advantage
The equality mandate had nothing to do with sexuality: you said "mandating half of every cast must not be straight white people", but it was in regard to race not sexuality :)
Yeah, someone else pointed this out too. I mistakenly thought CBS went all in on diversity.
If you haven't watched the Tiffany RHAP podcast, I strongly recommend it, the comment section were saying it was the best interview they have ever watched.
Coming back to here now wishing we had known Xander and Andrea are dating when you made this video
Im so happy Shan lost tbh
If Jeff wanted the season to be fun, he completely missed the mark. 41 wasn't bad, but it was one of the most joyless seasons I have ever seen.
Idk if it’s in here but Heather was on Wheel Of Fortune!!!

Why does this cast insist on continuing to say they were the first season to not have rice…. It’s just not true!!!!
I know, it is annoying.
Pretty sure production is prompting them to reiterate it for hype I guess
That gGenie scene being cut is a crime, and usually i dont like backstories. Thats what happens when you have to use all your screentime on twists
Supposed you didn’t have the one if Shan not being on the island during her vote out, but really good regardless
Shan just sounds like an overall awful person. 🙄
On the latest interview with Shan on RHAP, she said she made friends with everyone again except JD who still refuses to talk with her
R u sure? She still seems distant from Erika Heather Ricard and Deshawn
@@junsong9581 she only mentioned Ua, sorry should have been more specific.
I want Tiffany to play again she is such a chill person and funny too, plus she had potential.
The jury song is "The Weatherman Sea Shanty"
Xander 100% should’ve won imo
Awesome First Brad and Jd were my favourite until Ricard was my favourite when the merge hit after the argument with Shan after the Genie Boot
Xander is just Joe anglim 2 (and I didn't really see the hype behind joe anglim 1 anyway)
Hey, can anyone tell mewhat the song playing in the background at the start is? I recognize it but idk what it is called
When Johnny Comes Marching Home
@@OnceUponAnIsland Thank you very much
I didn't understood what Tiff was saying 19:32.
Did they got payed or not?
Did she said: We did! or We didn't! ?
she said they did.
Thank you for asking
who said Heather was purple? coz all i can see from her is GOLD xD
We need to see Shan and Ricardo on another season together. That would be an amazing story to watch unfold.
Survivor Mount Rushmore
Richard Hatch
Sandra Diaz Twine
Rob Mariano
Parvati Shallow
Heather at Ponderosa was outstanding!
14:25 OK well when your shows off the air in a few seasons due to nobody tolerating bs twists anymore, then yeah that'd be super fun

So, what’s the advantage that was missed by Xander during his sit-out in a challenge?
No one knows
I love how salty Shan was
I'm surprised you didn't mention that Tiffany came up with "mergatory"
or Mashitty
The Mount Rushmore of Survivor is : Boston Rob, Tony, Sandra, Parviti
The shocking part to me is a pastor can be so petty
Bruh this video just shows how awful Shan is
I rlly wanted Shan to win, sad to see she took her loss so personally
I loved Tiffany! She wasn’t that good at challenges, BUT she has a great sense of humor

Glad you enjoyed it!
That is Naseer!
Stopped watching about 5 years ago. I feel like I'm not missing anything. I watch the old episodes and enjoy them.
Dude.. Shan not talking to Ricard at all at Ponderosa… WTF
I think that there is nothing wrong with the phrase "come on in guys" at this point, guy is a gender neutral term.
love me a sea shanty
The cast (including Probst and Ricard) used the word, “guys” many times this season
from what i heard, the production cast wanted to stop using the phrase and they used ricard as a scapegoat. basically asking him to speak up.
This is all talked about in the video we are commenting on by Ricard
I hate this argument. Vocabulary isn't just a switch, you can't turn words off instantly. Jeff was willing to make an effort to push the show towards inclusivity, but we are all human and you have to understand that it's not as easy as saying "oh I'm gonna stop saying this word now". A good example would be people who say "like" or "literally" a lot. Sure, they can say they want to stop saying those words, but it's inevitable that those words will slip out subconsciously a ton, especially if it's RIGHT after deciding to make a change. If people are truly willing to change, then over time they will get better at it, but it takes WAY longer than 25 days to change your vocabulary.
I LOVE YOUR VIDEO :)
It became one of my favourites actually :D
JD is the most cringe survivor of all time and it’s not close, I called this in the first episode
Dan from Worlds Apart is much worse
The shanty is much better!

Shan is such a hypocrite and comes off as a vindictive person.
Idk if there has ever been a player so promising premerge and so disappointing post-merge than Shan.
26:00 There is some debate to be had about Jewish players adding diversity as well.
Jeff needs to take a bigger step back lol. I think they need a fresh face and a fresh take...Anyone else agree or disagree?
What did Jeff lie about the hour glass
He said something along the lines of "the winning team will not have tribal council, no matter what" and then when Erika smashed the glass, the winning team had to vote someone off.
Hopefully they add the left out twists in s42
They didn’t
Already?
