Survivor All-Time Top 40 Rankings | #38: Thailand

Welcome the the Survivor All-Time Top 40 Rankings podcast. Rob Has a Podcast reached out to thousands of dedicated Survivor fans on the ultimate quest to compile the definitive ranking of Survivor seasons. Each week, Rob Cesternino will be joined by a panel of guests to countdown the top 40 chart. Along the way, we’ll take a look back at each season and highlight some of the standout moments, players, and moves.

Rob heads to the beaches of Chuay Gahn and Sook Jai with another amazing panel of RHAP podcasters to discuss the 38th best season of Survivor, Survivor: Thailand! Joining the team for a trip to Thailand is host of Why X Lost, David Bloomberg (@DavidBloomberg), and two standouts from the RHAP Class of 2020, Sasha Joseph (@funSize_04) and Chappell (@Chappells_Show)! Head back in time to a season filled with snakes, missing boats, and a fake merge.

Is this season where you expected it to fall? Is it too low? Too high? What season will we discuss next week? Share your Top 40 tweets with us by tagging @RobHasAPocast and using the hashtags #RHAP and #SurvivorTop40!

Survivor | Outwit, Outplay, OutLIST | Most Memorable Jury Speeches

Ready for a new podcast to kick off the Survivor off-season? Introducing Outwit, Outplay, OutLIST! A podcast where Rob Cesternino (@robcesternino) and Mike Bloom (@AMikeBloomType) nail down their official rankings of Survivor things. Each week, Rob and Mike will be joined by a special guest to rank different Survivor moments, objects, people, confessionals, and more. Some may call ranking arbitrary and reductive, but this is a podcast based on just that!

This episode, Rob and Mike head to final tribal council with RHAP Class of 2020 member, Grace Leeder (@hifromgrace), to revisit some jury speeches from deep in the Survivor archives. We’re heading to Borneo to hear Sue’s iconic tale of snakes and rats, paddling down the Amazon River to revisit Heidi’s unforgettable Jury speech (which, at the time, resulted in a facepalm from the one and only Rob Cesternino), and making our way to Gabon to hear Corinne’s tongue-lashing words for Sugar.

Which Survivor jury speeches stick with you? Take the floor and give us your jury speech on Twitter by tagging @RobHasAPodcast and using the hashtag #RHAP!

News AF | Gwyneth’s Explosive Scented Candle is News AF – January 19, 2021

It’s only three weeks into January 2021 and the AF news stories just keep on coming. Rob Cesternino, Tyson Apostol, and Danny Bryson, are back on January 19, 2021 to bring you your weekly news update. It’s been a hot minute since we last took a trip to the Goop lab, but the wait is over, because Gwyneth Paltrow’s candles are back! After Paltrow’s “This Smells Like My Vagina” candle burst into flames, the internet and the News AF team is left wondering: is that based off of the real thing too? Perhaps this Goop innovator should pay her doctor a visit. The News AF team gives their explosive takes on this story and chimes in on other viral stories from the past week.

If you didn’t already own Gwyneth’s candle, would you be running to buy one now? Share your opinions with us on Twitter by tagging @RobHasAPodcast and using the hashtags #RHAP and #NewsAF! And while you’re at it, follow the News AF team: Rob (@robcesternino), Tyson (@TysonApostol), Danny (@dannybryson).

RHAP Patron Brant Steele – Fake Survivor with Real People

Take a look into one of the many exclusive Patron activities offered to Patrons of Rob Has a Podcast. In this special podcast, Rob Cesternino (@robcesternino) is joined by the king of Brant Steele, Mike Bloom (@AMikeBloomType) to simulate a season of Survivor. 

This Survivor: South Pacific simulation would not be complete without two veterans leading the way. Unlike the 23rd season of Survivor, this podcast won’t have Ozzy and Coach leading the way. Instead, heading up these teams is seed lover and host of TWISH Ultimate Trivia, Jordan Kalish (@JordanKalish), and host of the KowSkiCast Mary Kwiatkowski (@FrailMary). Listen as these two RHAP podcasters and patrons compete for the title of Sole Survivor.

Rob & Akiva Need a Podcast #116: KAZAAM

Rob Cesternino (@robcesternino) and Akiva Wienerkur (@keev26) need a podcast and every week, Rob and Akiva spin a wheel of listener-submitted podcast ideas, and whatever the wheel lands on is what they podcast about next. This week, the wheel landed on the “Crappy Movie Diaper” which resulted in Rob and Akiva watching and recapping the hit 1996 film Kazaam starring NBA star Shaquille O’Neal with AANG in There co-host and RAANAP “Third Wheel” Zak Mohamed (@ZakMohamed32).

After Rob and Akiva talk about Kazaam, they go through the mailbag to hear what new ideas should be added to the wheel and then spin the wheel to see what will be coming next week in episode 117.

For the link to the spreadsheet that Rob and Akiva use to compile ideas, check it all out here: Rob and Akiva Need a Spreadsheet (compiled by the great Will from America).

RHAP Rewind | Kid Nation Episodes 5-7 Recap

Welcome to the RHAP Rewind! Each month, we’ll be popping in a new VHS tape to take a look back at some shows from the reality tv archives. Whether it’s a particular season, a full series, or anything in between, we’ll be rewinding the tapes and hopping to a new series each month.

To kick off 2021 with a bang, we’re spending the month of January in Bonanza City for the Kid Nation rewatch! Once again, Rob Cesternino (@robcesternino) and Phil Thompson (@listenupphilip) are rewinding the tapes and establishing their own society as they dive into episodes 5-7 of Kid Nation. Today, Akiva Wienerkur (@Keev26) is stepping away from the RAANAP wheel to join the Kid Nation party.

Kid Nation is an American reality tv show featuring 40 children between the ages of 8 and 15. Similar to Survivor, the children establish their own governing rules and society with little adult supervision. Each week, the town council elects gold stars to one child. Kid Nation ran on CBS for one season.

Are there any shows you’d love to see covered on the rewind? Did you originally watch Kid Nation when it first premiered? What are your thoughts on this show looking back? Send us a gold star and share your Kid Nation thoughts with us on Twitter by tagging @RobHasAPodcast and using the hashtag #RHAP!

Married At First Sight | Season 12 Premiere Recap

Let’s ‘Countdown to the Meltdown’ and countdown to the moment you’ve all been waiting for… the season 12 premiere recap of Married at First Sight! After dipping into the dating show waters with his recap of 90 Day Fiancé, Rob Cesternino (@robcesternino) is back to talk about another romantic reality TV series. Meeting him at the alter is RHAP Class of 2020 podcaster extraordinaire, Aysha Welch (@AyshaLikeAsia)!

Together, these two experts (with varying degrees of Married at First Sight expertise) discuss the premiere episode and their thoughts on this reality TV show/social experiment. On the show Married at First Sight, professional matchmakers help individuals find their perfect pair. The catch? They don’t see their forever-and-always until they walk down the aisle and say “I do!”

Would you get married without ever laying eyes on your partner? Do you think these marriages are successful? Something  old, something new, something borrowed, something blue, send us a Tweet if you’d like a recap of episode 2 (@RobHasAPodcast)!
