The Plz Survive team kicks off their own “Therapy Carousel” taking a spin on whatever is going on between Devens and Joe, Rizo and his work ethic, and the aura Cirie beholds while talking strategy in a hammock. It’s only week 2, but Jessica and Rob may have already succeeded in turning Molly into a true Survivor fan - despite the one gentle suggestion she for improving the show.
Plz Survive kicks off its inaugural season, covering the Mike White abs-sized premiere of Survivor 50. Following the first episode,"Epic Party," co-hosts Jessica, Molly and Rob dive into the mud and chat intital tribe divisions, the Billie Eilish boomerang idol, the great Colby Donaldson baby naming phenomenon of the early aughts, a pre-tribal scramble, iconic off-the-couch hero Cirie Fields, and more. With the wildly diverse perspectives and humor of a super-fan, a casual, and a Survivor virgin, the Plz Survive trio enters the fray to dissect the premiere episode of Survivor's historic 50th season.
The Plz Survive trio asks each other "Did you vote for a tribe swap?," before breaking down the new iterations of the Survivor 50 tribes. We touch down on Emily short-circuiting, explain the audaciousness of Rizo's fanboy question, take a heat-check on the Genevieve and Aubrey feud, and finally, they wonder about which restaurant Ozzy worked at when he waited on Mike White.

On this week's Plz Survive we wonder about the Open Wounds of Angelina losing her bestie last week in a blindside, the Open Wounds that wake Charlie up at dawn, how Aubry may be on her way to leaving hers behind, and the Plz Survive team discuss the Open Wounds of the female players at large about how they are being under-edited this season.
An ick to the Heart this week on Survivor. Molly, Jess, and Rob discuss what worked and what didn’t in the episode while also exploring Cirie’s original 3-2-1 voting strategy. They offer advice to a few players who need to learn how to move on and make a plea to the producers about that famous Billie Eilish boomerang idol.
We meet Jimmy, a boy from the Internet who sells chocolate bars to make a little extra cash, and find out he's brought a portion of that cash to the set of Survivor 50. We also find out Molly's thoughts on watching her first auction, Rob asks where the show-mances are (he's such a Romber), and Jessica - instead of serving a side dish of chaos - this week as her advice, turns up the flame and serves an entree of advice to Jeff.

We touch down on this historic episode of Survivor 50, where Jeff Probst himself finally takes his first stab at competing in a challenge. While we're still unsure on what it is he thinks he deserves, we do deliver a hearty serving a mockery and derision over the fact that it's taken until season 50 to test drive a challenge on his own show. Our annoyance with the honor and integrity crew increases as we wonder if they know what television show they're on, and Molly learns about jury management and the upcoming Surivor auction that Jessica and Rob think will be arriving next episode.
This week on Plz Survive we discuss doubling over with laughter while watching Coach try to escape his own lies, wonder about the logistics of sorting through two thousand coconuts, the social politics of selecting a challenge partner, Devens' idol gambit, and Stephenie hulking out on Christian during tribal council. We also share our current front runner picks and potential new alliances that may form in the coming weeks as we approach the final third of this season of Survivor 50.

Jessica explains to newbie Molly that the way Jonathan and Coach play the game, is, well, That's Not How I Play Survivor, as Rob agrees, We chat about how it would be nice if the honorable men would stop yelling at the women and culturally appropriating Japanese culture for long enough to actually form some strategy. The Plz Survive trio takes a stab at mapping out the current alliances and enemies solidifying on the beach, and wonder what other option Aubry had for her very public idol, and ends with some advice for Jonthan and Coach, and suggestions for retroactively renaming the 40s seasons.
