Survivor 40 | Why __ Lost Episode 11 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

Sophie was David’s preseason winner pick and came into the game viewed as somebody who wasn’t a flashy player or a huge threat. What changed as the game went on and why did she become Tony’s target? Is there anything she could have done about it? Or was it all the fault of the Swing of Death? It’s time for David and Jessica to figure out Why Sophie 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
