Yahoo, Survivor's Back! Here's the teams: NaKum is Bobby Jon, Blake, Margaret, Judd, Cindy, Brooke, Brandon, Danni, and Jim Yaxha is Stephanie, Gary, Briana, Brian, Amy, Rafe, Morgan, Lydia, and Jamie Well, what did you think of the first episode? More importantly, what do you think about the return of Stephanie and Bobby Jon? We're not too keen on it, but we'd love to hear or read what you thought and why. Our picks for the next to go in episode 2 is Blake if Nakum loses. Jo Ann says it will be Amy if it's Yaxha, and Stacy says it's Brianna. Who's your pick? If you have comments or feedback, you can call and leave a voicemail at 206-350-JASS(5277). You can record an audio comment on your PC and send it to us via email at joannandstacyshow@gmail.com. You can also send us your input as a normal email and we'll read it into the show when we record. Lastly, there's a link for comments on the webpage here.

Hello Survivor Fans, This is part 2 of our 2 part Survivor Guatemala preview show. In these 2 episodes, we read through the bios and studied the pictures starting with Jaime and continuing through Rafe. Just like in part 1, we gave our feedback based on this data plus whatever we could gleen from the Early Show video preview. This segment concludes with summaries provided by listeners Bill, Gloria, and a special editorial commentary by Enzo. We've also made the preview video from the early show available . It's a chance to get a better glimpse of the new Survivors beyond the static pictures and cheesy bios. It's an MPEG2 file and it's quite large weighing in at about 55MB. I can't guarantee it will play on everyone's machine. If you have trouble with it, let us know via email and I'll see about re-encoding it into other formats. I recommend you do a "save as" instead of just clicking the link: Survivor Guatemala Early Show Preview Video So lets wrap up at guessing who from this new batch of Survivor contestants will be the first to go and listing the reasons we think each person may or may not have a chance at winning. If you have comments or feedback, you can call and leave a voicemail at 206-350-JASS(5277). You can record an audio comment on your PC and send it to us via email at joannandstacyshow@gmail.com. You can also send us your input as a normal email and we'll read it into the show when we record. Lastly, there's a link for comments on the webpage here. It's not too late if you want to add your predictions to the record. :) Note: We're continuing to experiment with a new program called CastBlaster to record the show. There are some definite cut-outs and garbled phrases in this segment that appear to be related to the automatic clipper/limiter function. It's not your player, it's us actively learning a new application. We'll try to make sure that doesn't happen again. We're playing music from the podsafe music network. Check out that site if you're looking for some new tunes for your mp3 player.

Hello Survivor Fans, This is part 1 of our 2 part Survivor Guatemala preview show. In these 2 episodes, we'll read through the bios and study the pictures of each player. Then we give our feedback based solely on this data. We'll more than likely be completely wrong with the majority of our predictions, but that's just part of the fun. :) These two shows are extra special because we got some great audio predictions from Gloria, Bill and Enzo on the new contestants too. So lets get started at guessing who will be the first to go and basically list the reasons we think each person may or may not have a chance at winning. As always, if you have comments or feedback, you can call and leave a voicemail at 206-350-JASS(5277). You can record an audio comment on your PC and send it to us via email at joannandstacyshow@gmail.com. You can also send us your input as a normal email and we'll read it into the show when we record. Lastly, there's a link for comments on the webpage here. It's not too late if you want to add your predictions to the record. :) Note: We're continuing to experiment with a new program called CastBlaster to record the show. We're still learning how to use it, so don't be surprised when you hear some drops and clipping. It's not your player, it's us actively learning a new application.

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.

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). Or you can always add a text comment to this page like Dave did for the last show by clicking the comments link or you can always send us an email at: joannandstacyshow@gmail.com.

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).
