And Hi everybody and welcome back to the Survivor 50 wish list

podcast an off-season series where we're trying to figure out who could and should come back for the upcoming

returning season of Survivor 50. Today we're talking about beads baby you

sussi bacchas.

It's time to take a deep dive and wrap our podcast tentacles

around the season that featured an octopus

at the center of it, Survivor 43. I'm excited to get into this one. This is a very unique

cast that again might get passed over when people typically talk about the new era but like all new era

cast there are definitely some interesting people contained with it and

certainly some people that I think for the sake of our list and maybe productions

list in general could be in contention for a second season. Of course I am not alone today.

I am joined by someone that I would call a lovable curmudgeon but I'll just stop at

lovable. It is Chappelle.

Hey, no, you can call me whatever you want. As long as you're calling me to talk about Survivor 43,

then I'll be here because this was my first choice when given the options of what to talk about which season you wanted to talk about which attorneys I said 43 and I get the feeling there wasn't a lot of pushback. I don't think a lot of people wanted this one.

No offense to Survivor 43 because we're about to get into again when I think is a very, very solid cast. Her? Survivor 43, Chappelle? Yeah, that's the one.

That is the one, because I remember, like, first of all,

it's so recent, right?

So I can really put myself in where I was mentally watching this season.

And then obviously, kind of the experience of the

journey all the way to the all leg gabler of it all and in the backlash afterwards.

It was a very contentious, I was off season, you know, right after the show was over. But as far as the cast goes, I felt like there were so many gamers on this cast that I could talk about that probably won't get their due because it's not the most well-received season.
