This week Leslie & guest-co-host Courtney sit down with the legendary "Boston"Rob Mariano. They dive into Rob's long and memorable Survivor career, his strategies, memorable moments, and behind-the-scenes insights. They talk about what he would say to himself back on that Marquesas beach so many years ago if he got a chance to "mentor" himself back then, and find out what he really thought about those gigantic statues of him and Sandra, and why he won't ever play Survivor again. If you're a Survivor fan, this is a must-listen episode!

We’re back!!! Welcome to Beyond the Torch 2026! We’re kicking things off in the best way possible. Guest host Courtney Yates joins Leslie for a real, raw, and honestly iconic conversation with Tina Wesson, Survivor winner & returnee!

From being cast as an alternate (wild) to becoming a Survivor legend, to returning with her daughter on Survivor: Blood vs. Water, Tina opens up about it all. The wins, the losses, the growth—and yes, she spills some tea.

They dive into how Survivor has changed over the years, what it’s really like playing as a “normal” person (aka not a superfan strategist), and how the show shaped Tina’s life and family in ways she never expected.

Big themes: authenticity, evolving game dynamics, and the kind of lifelong bonds only Survivor can create. It’s heartfelt, fun, and full of moments you’ll be thinking about long after the episode ends.

Trust us—you’re gonna want to listen 🎧✨

Imagine finally being selected as a Castaway on Survivor after 18 auditions and realizing your experience was nothing like you'd hoped it would be. Gillian Larsen was 61 years old when she was cast on the show and she had a rough time fitting in on her season of Survivor Gabon, but she didn't let that stop her from using the experience to create a fundraising event (Reality Rally) that raised tons of money for Michele's Place, a cancer resource center. Gillian has had such a beautiful and exciting life (and she shares it in great detail - you'll love it!) and she has learned to take the tough experiences in life and make good from them. We know you'll be inspired today as you hear her journey to, through and beyond the torch!
