Applying for Survivor 12 Jul 17, 2005

Show notes

Hello Again Survivor Fans, Welcome to another of our special topic shows while Survivor is on summer hiatus. It's a whopper of a show as you can see from the show notes below. This time, we focus on the experience of applying to be on Survivor 12. We talk about the video production, answering the kooky questions on the application, and we spend some time reviewing a risk assessment of what it might mean to us if Stacy were to actually be selected. There's also an update on Tom Westman, a look at other entertainment options we're pursuing this summer, and don't forget that Survivor reruns begin on OLN TV on July 24th.

Show notes

Welcome Back Survivor Fans, Listener Feedback This was our best week yet for listener feedback. Dave chimed in via the comments section of the last show. You can scroll down and click the comments field to see exactly what he had to say. Sandy expected Katie would be the next one to leave. Bill provided a great, detailed prediction that covered the challenges as well as his expectation that Jenn would be the next to leave. Enzo is back with an audio update that we added directly into the show itself. He did a great job of assembling it and included intro/outro music as well as a title, "Do the Shuffle". We initially thought we might need to cut it down to specific clips, but after checking our storage budget, we decided to just include the whole thing for everyone to enjoy. Great job Enzo! Thanks again to all of you. It's the community aspect of this that makes it really special. We'd love to hear from more of you. Come on. There's only one show left. Who's your pick for final three, final two, and the sole survivor? To leave an audio comment, call 206-350-JASS(5277).

Show notes

Hi Again Survivor Fans, Listener Feedback Bill picked Katie to go this week, but he called the reward challenge and family member angle perfectly. Hey Enzo, we missed getting your prediction this week. Hope you're doing well and can catch us up with your predictions for the next episode. There's only two shows left. Who's your pick for the next person to get voted off the island? How about the final two? To leave an audio comment, call 206-350-JASS(5277).

Jo Ann and Stacy Show Palau Episode 11 Apr 29, 2005

Show notes

Hello Again, Listener Feedback Both Bill and Enzo sent us their picks for this week along with some observations on how the show is shaping up. Bill's pick last week was particularly astute in that he accurately predicted the fall of the mighty Stephenie. Enzo's feedback said to watch for Greg to be voted off soon. He also highlighted what appeared to be an overt, extreme manipulation by Jeff Probst of Janu last week in Tribal Council. Several of the TV journalists agreed with Enzo and were quite vocal in calling foul on Probst. It's getting down to the wire. There will only be three more shows before this season is done. What do you think we should focus on when Survivor's over? Who's your pick for the next person to get voted off the island? To leave an audio comment, call 206-350-JASS(5277).

Jo Ann thinks that Caryn will be next and follow the order that Tom called out this week with her as number six. I think we'll finally see a puzzle challenge for immunity next week which means Tom will not win it. Since it's all Koror now, Greg and Jen will finally be able to execute their plan to start eliminating the stronger players.

Jo Ann and Stacy Show Palau Episode 10 Apr 22, 2005

Show notes

Welcome Back, Woohoo! We got more listener feedback. :) Bill sent us an email asking for more complete coverage. He caught us making a format change which shortened the show and left out an item he really wanted to discuss. I think we have a plan to fix that now Bill, and thanks for sending in that request. We got our first voicemail from Laughing Pygmy, the host of the Pygmy Island website. Check our show on Episode 4 for some more background on his site. He included his predictions for the final two which was really cool. Sounds like he's a big fan of Stephenie too. We really enjoy the listener feedback. Hey, is there anyone out there that would be interested in doing an interview like the one we did with Survivor Fan Sandy? We got a device from Radio Shack that will let us make a digital recording of the call. We'll pay for the call and include it as a special segment on the show. We've got a set of sample questions we can send ahead of time to let you know what we're looking for. Let us know if you're interested. Send us feedback on the show or your pick for who's going to get voted off next. To leave an audio comment, call 206-350-JASS(5277).

We're going to avoid the obvious choice of Stephenie. Jo Ann thinks that a female alliance will emerge as the power center and Tom will be next to go. I agree that those ladies are pretty sharp and very likely to recognize the strength in numbers they have. My prediction differs only slightly. I'm going with a hunch and guessing that it will be Ian. What do you think? Contact Info: Voicemail: 206-350-JASS(5277) Email: joannandstacyshow@gmail.com Enjoy, Jo Ann and Stacy

Show notes

Welcome Back, It's time for a rundown of episode 9 of Survivor Palau. But first, we want to say a big "Thank You" to listener E. He sent us a note to chastise us, for being so harsh with our assessment of Ulong's mental capabilities. As E pointed out in his input, it's very likely that Bobby John can read given that he has a journalism degree. Jo Ann thinks he's cute, end of story. I still think he might have had someone doing his homework for him, but getting the feedback and sharing in the discussion of the show is what really makes podcasting special. We really enjoyed getting that email from E. It made our day. :) We'd love to hear from some of the other folks that are listening too. Send us your pick for who's going to get voted off next. To leave an audio comment, call 206-350-JASS(5277). Or you can always add a text comment to this page by clicking the "comments" link or send us an email at: joannandstacyshow@gmail.com.

We both think Janu will be the next to go, but we're hoping that Greg and Jen can convince her to stay long enough to send Tom or Ian packing. Jo Ann's power play pick is for Greg, Jen, Janu, and Caryn to convince Stephenie to join them to break up the Tom, Ian, and Katie alliance.
