It's a double recap episode! We missed you last week, but all 3 of us are back together to give you some coverage of the highlights of Episode 5 as well as a full recap of Episode 6. Episode 6 seems to be the high point of the season so far, so we we're surprisingly positive about the episode. We can't wait to hear what y'all think!

You ever watch Survivor and think too hard about it? US TOO!
We're catching up on Season 49 Episode 4 & our patience is wearing thin (I'm talking to you, Jeff). There is still plenty to cover this week with a Tribe Swap!! Shaking up the alliances always leads to some interesting dynamics, though we're not huge fans of how the numbers played out. But, we finally get a challenge without a puzzle!!! That's a win, even if the reward was crap (in Sophie's eyes AND ours).

Well, I wish we could say that we are as high on Survivor Season 49 in episode 2 as we maybe were after episode 1. BUT, there's still a lot for us to discuss! Anna, Stacey, and Agie are all here to discuss all the highs, lows, and twists in this episode as they try to navigate the lingo of the youths. We don't nail the lingo, but we think we have the recap covered.

WE ARE BACK, BABY! And, we've brought our tepid reactions and big belly laughs with us! Survivor Season 49 is finally and you get to hear how Agie and Anna are feeling about a premiere with *no* Beware Advantages...it's a fun little giggle fest without Stacey to keep us honest and on track. Excited to see how Rizgod and the rest of the S49 castaways play this game. *Shania Twain voice* "LET'S GO GIRLS!"

The official cast of Survivor Season 50 is out and we have a lot of feelings to get off our chests. We wanted to hop on and vent a little... about our overall thoughts on the makeup of the milestone season & more specific impressions of the individual players chosen. We're ready for our mind's to be changed as we get closer to the actual season, but we just had to get on and rant a little.

We've had a bit of a rocky relationship with Survivor Season 48, but we're here to wrap up a middling season with a great winner, Kyle. We paint with broad strokes to discuss themes of the episode and the season while dragging some of the antics (and Jeff) along the way. We also do a wish list for S50 at the end so stayed tuned to rapid fire to hear what we think!

Welcome Back to Escaping Reality! This week Agie and Anna take the mike sans Stacey, and they've got some hot takes! We're talking someone finally making a move, our continued disdain for the Sanctuary, and our thoughts on who's taking home the dub.

Ooof! we're back to 'recap' episodes 10 & 11 of Survivor S48 and there's honestly too much ground to cover, so we're hitting you with a speed round! Anna & Stacey are giving an overview of our thoughts from the last 2 weeks, because things are kind of a mess on Survivor right now so we're zooming out.

Welcome back to Escaping Reality! This week Stacey and Anna are recapping episode 9 without Agie (sadly). Overall takeaway—not our favorite episode. But our recap our still full of laughs, vibe checks, and predictions for the future.

Welcome back, Escaping Reality Fam! We're firmly mid-season and, with a double elimination this week, we have a lot of ground to cover. We're recapping episode 7 & working through all our feelings on why the first half of the episode was some of the best Survivor in a while, but the latter half of the episode needed some serious revision.
There's seemingly a lot, but, in reality, very little gameplay we see this week, but, in classic podcast fashion, we have much to discuss anyway...

Got Milk? Season 48 sure has a lot of talk about it! We are back recapping episode 6 and our overall thoughts are it was a bit of a bore. But our recap is anything but boring so check it out now! We talk the "merge" tribe dynamics, what keeps a season interesting, and of course we have our vibe checks for Jeff per usual.

With a historic episode of Survivor 48 on deck, Agie, Anna, and Stacey are getting emotional and honest as we break down the episode that gave us whiplash, in a good way (maybe). There's so much to discuss!! In an episode defined by its emotional beats on New Vula and between Joe and Eva, we're here to talk through it all with you.

Oooooh, things are getting good!! Episode 4 of Survivor 48 was one for the books. A classic tribe swap had all our previous alliances in shambles. And the ones that stayed intact? Time to be tested! We're discussing all the new tribe dynamics (which is a lot of things to discuss) and the major gaming that goes down before tribal council. Plus, all our usual fun segments AND the fact that we got to vote on season 50 again (Thank you, Jeff & The Survivor team!)

What an episode! The three of us recap the wild happenings of Episode 3. We chat the series of unfortunate events that led to this chaotic final tribal, our desire for more voting opportunities for S50, needing a million dollars to keep your relationship in tact and our thoughts on that journey challenge. Plus we laugh at Stacey's inability to remember her draft pick's name.

Agie and Anna are untethered without our anchor Stacey, but we're breaking down the entirety of Season 48, Episode 2 together. From "humble traits" to the "unfairness" of varied Beware Advantages, we had so much fun breaking this episode down.
*Spoiler Alert*: RIP to the first member of #TeamAgie
