In this episode, Andy and John discuss:

• Our feelings on the finale.
• Lots of gloating.
• The fire making twist. We gotta get into it, but maybe not in the way you expect.
• Will a player who survived due to the fire making twist ever be accepted by fandom at large as legitimate?
• How do we feel about Ben as a winner, irrespective of how he got there?
• Why we think people are rejecting him (besides the twist).
• Laughing at the idea that Chrissy was screwed.
• We in here talking about challenge wins. I mean, listen, we’re talking about challenge wins, not a social game, not a strategic game, not a good game, we talking about challenge wins.
• So if this twist doesn’t happen, does Chrissy beat Devon?
• Devon’s big move of the episode and what it says about his game.
• Final thoughts on Ryan.
• Final thoughts on Mike.
• Our thoughts on the new FTC format now that we’ve had two versions of it.
• The incredibly short reunion and whether or not its even a necessary part of Survivor fandom anymore.
• Putting the Heroic, Healing, and Hustle moments gimmick to bed.
• Early ranking of this season and winner.
• Thank yous.
• Offseason plans.
