Survivor Australian Outback Episode 2 | Why __ Lost RHAPup with David Bloomberg & Jessica Lewis

Each week this season on our Survivor Podcast, David Bloomberg & Jessica Lewis will talk about why each voted out player “lost the game”. For more on David’s Survivor rules check out his most recent update… What Island of the Idols Survivors Should Have Learned

Kel came into Survivor: The Australian Outback from the military and had studied the first season so he believed he was ready for the game. But clearly something was missing. David and Jessica have a heated debate about beef jerky and look at the whole situation to see if those accusations were the only reason he was voted out or there was more to it. And David delves into his old articles and interviews to add some information about Kel both in the game and what he did in the several years after it. It’s time to explain Why Kel Lost.

To review the short version of David’s Rules, here is the quick version:

Rule 1: Scheme and Plot

Rule 2: But Don’t Scheme and Plot Too Much/Keep Your Scheming Secret/Don’t Backstab Until You Absolutely Need To

Rule 3: Be Flexible!

Rule 4: Don’t Let Your Emotions Control You

Rule 5: Pretend To Be Nice/Play the Social Game (and Keep Your Politics and Controversial Beliefs To Yourself)

Rule 6: Don’t Be Too Much of a Threat

Rule 7: Know How to Deal with Idols and Advantages

Appendix A: Make Your Votes Count – Keep in Mind Your End Goal

Appendix B: The Jury Phase

——

You can also get the poster version of these rules drawn by Erik Reichenbach right here!

Join us again next week when we discuss the next player voted out of the game.
