I was literally marooned on an island all June. Did I miss a war?

True. And the stories I tell are typically the length of a Tolstoy novel.

Earlier today, IMSI’s @chubicki.bsky.social broke down the biomechanics behind one of Survivor’s toughest endurance challenges live on Survivor’s YouTube stream.

From muscle fatigue to mental strategy, endurance is as psychological as it is physical.

It took me 30 years but I finally played through Myst. It didn’t hold my attention when I was 10, but I get it now. It’s great.

Wait. I’m confused. I thought she half-won.

Tremendous power output of the actuators to pull this off. Excellent.

What a flattering compliment from this fantastic interviewer, Mike Bloom. It was also one of my favorite ever interviews to give.

Check out this interview I gave just hours before being marooned in Fiji for #Survivor50.

Freudian slips are more dramatic than they are reliable tells.
