EXTRA CREDIT EPISODE! Beth and Alexis sit down with freaky Survivor superfan, Joseph Elston (Bad Packs, Schlubs) to share stories about Joseph eating gross things, Alexis NOT eating a pickle, and Beth getting waterboarded at a Turkish bath.

But mostly, they discuss Survivor family visits, how rewards have changed over the years, classic Survivor challenges we’ll never see again (the water wheel torture challenge), and classics we almost certainly will see in Season 50 (they’ve gotta get Ozzy and Dee huggin’ that pole!). And it all culminates in a dramatic planking competition between Alexis and Joseph that you won’t want to miss.
