Summary
Will and Rider have once again washed ashore to recap episode 7 of Survivor 50, but would you believe that an episode centered around poetry DIDN’T hook Rider??
We’re venturing into the haiku hammock to hear contestants' compositions of…varying quality, and after getting a lesson on the true rules of prose from trained poet Rider Strong, the guys decide for certain - they are sick of Coach!
The boys also discuss rumors of a nefarious alliance, and Will reveals his first ever “Survivor crush,” this week on Pod Meets Twirl’d: Seeking Immunity!

| 0:14.7 | Welcome to PodMeets Twirled, a podcast that once chronicled two guys who had never seen |
| 0:19.2 | Dancing with the Stars, but watched a season and walked away experts. From there, we ventured into Traders, a show I'd never seen, |
| 0:25.8 | but Will swore he could win, and now we turned to Survivor, Season 50, the big one. And this time |
| 0:31.9 | the roles are reversed. Will has seen exactly one season, the first one. Meanwhile, I've watched |

| 0:43.8 | the beach. Two best friends, one devoted to the comforts of civilization, one who would never |
| 0:48.6 | leave the woods if he could, both reality competition scholars. Join us as we dive into alliances, blindsides, fire-making sand-related misery, and 25 years of television history culminating in a single massive season. |
| 1:02.2 | This is Podmates twirled seeking immunity. |
| 1:05.6 | How's it going well? |
| 1:06.5 | Good, Ryder. How are you? |
| 1:07.9 | I'm a little tired. |
| 1:09.4 | I'm a little tired as well. |
| 1:10.5 | We both admitted that we just took naps. |
| 1:13.3 | We siesta. I went and taught a class at indie school and then came back and promptly fell asleep on my couch for 25 minutes. |
| 1:25.9 | I did magical rewind this morning and then passed out. |
| 1:29.4 | Nice. |
| 1:29.5 | So, yeah. |
| 1:32.6 | So we would be on the beach and Survivor just lounging. |
| 1:36.6 | If that's allowed, I've still, that would be great. |
