    Get Nate off the show
    Nate makes this incredibly hard to listen to. It’s like he’s hitched his wagon to this just to hear himself talk. Best season of Survivor we’ve had in a while and this pod has fallen completely flat. There is a reason none of Nate’s content has been sustainable…bring back Clem and never let Nate speak again.

    Nate is insufferable

    Decent
    This last episode with just Tommy was literally embarrassing. Why would you not just wait to record…
  • JPDarbouze
    Raw Alternative from popular Survivor podcasts
    It’s a fun to hear y’all perspectives and reactions and kudos to whoever was doing the solo episode. Fun to hear your raw reactions to the latest episode. Way to plan 20 minutes solo and nail it!
  • HelizabethC
    Do they even like survivor?
    Not sure these guys even like the show survivor. Literally every comment was a complaint. I tried for a few episodes but ended up not being able to even listen.

    Stop Ruining Prior Seasons
    Most fans haven’t seen every season and are rewatching old seasons… when you guys spoil prior seasons for throw away arguments and proof for your dumb takes it makes the podcast unlistenable cause you’ll ruins a whole season… just talk about the current season, it’s already enough to ask that people tolerate Nate to begin with
  • hortisimo
    Whine whine whine
    All they do is complain about how they don’t like survivor (jaded NYC nonsense). And their recording schedule is entirely inconsistent. They miss entire weeks and seasons.
  • Tom Beau
    Take Nate off the pod
    I can no longer listen because of Nate. The rest of you do a good job, but I can’t stomach Nate anymore.
  • mjpnc42
    We get it
    Was excited for this show to come back but forgot all they do is complain about how terrible everything is
  • spicyfajitas
    Plz decrease ad volume
    Podcast is great- love what these guys are doing. My only issue is that the ads are way louder than the show. Pretty annoying, but I keep coming back for the content
  • Ron0824
    Great Podcast
    Keep Snuffing Torches! Best Survivor podcast out there!
  • JRodNoName
    I don’t even watch Survivor
    Like the title says. I don’t even watch Survivor. I used to watch it when I was younger with my grandpa but haven’t really watched it since. I experienced Season 41, 42, and 43 through Snuffin Torches and enjoyed every second of it.

    Mike
    Mike was so funny. They actually asked him all of the questions that we all think about but never get the answers to about the show!
  • gopackgo13793
    COME ON IN GUYS!!
    For fans by fans. Relatable for fans who have watched since season 1 or season 43. Great breakdown of each episode with fun banter and analysis. All with the barstool charm! Would recommend as a companion podcast for anyone watching.
  • alexpmoger
    Awesome except Nate
    How has nobody on this show ever stop and realized how awful Nate is? I literally scream in my car whenever he opens his mouth. He knows nothing, but acts like he knows everything. All of the other hosts are generally funny, well informed, and entertaining. Nate makes me want to throw my phone across the room
  • Edmund II
    Josh Gibson of Survivor
    Great show. Tommy Smokes is the Josh Gibson of Survivor. The greatest player to never get to play.
  • sweetlou1996
    Season 43 winner
    Season 43 winner is going to be Justine. She’s fit to win the whole show while selling cyber security to each contestant
  • solargal68
    Time to snuff Nate’s torch
    I agree with all the previous comments addressing Nate. Listening to him is mentally and physically draining.
  • Niki1726354
    Very negative, needs female energy
    Listened to a few episodes and their takes are just so negative and get borderline mean at times to the cast. Not very enjoyable to listen to. Could really benefit from a female host, especially since they continually sweep misogyny under the rug and call the women dramatic for what they experience.
  • itstheweekndboii
    Awful
    These guys have the worst takes and not even sure if they know any survivor history and enjoy watching the show. One time one of the hosts wasn’t even talking and was screaming about a hockey game. If you’re a true fan of this show, don’t listen to this pod.
  • Kelaeryyr
    Basic

  • nehwoody
    Negative and whiny
    I’m not sure these guys even like Survivor. I’ve only listened the past 2 seasons and can’t do it anymore. They were making watching Survivor, a show that I love, not as enjoyable.
  • Cathy E.
    Great review podcast
    I’ve been a survivor fan since the beginning, and really enjoy this podcast. I love Jake and Tommy. I wish Nate spoke a little less. That’s my only complaint.
  • spencerdinwiddy
    Overall solid, but Nate is a moron
    Title. Saying 5th place Omar is a worse player than a 0 vote finalist is insanity
  • PapaJustify
    Perfect post-episode listen
    The show functions best when Tommy, Jeff, Glenny, and Jake occupy the conversation. Nate isn’t awful, but seems to just steer the convo off the rails a ton. As a whole, they do a really good job of recaping and analyzing each episode. I do think they would benefit from having a another barstool personality like Kate or Fran watching the show and in the mix.
  • hrd12357
    Awesome pod!
    I love this pod! Great, funny, and informative breakdowns of each episode! Thanks guys! P.s. If you ever want a female Survivor super fan on the pod I’m your girl! 😏
  • bgytttt
    Awesome podcast
    Me and my boyfriend love listening to this podcast after survivor episodes they break down what happened and bring up great points you may not have thought about
  • ScotNotScott
    Tone deaf
    Definitely a barstool product.
  • Libbylooolioolo
    Is this a TFM blog from 2009?
    You can just feel the collective insecurity oozing out of these hosts. Making it personal about the players is not a substitute for actual game-play commentary. Tommy would absolutely get into a beef over the shelter structure if he went on. I’d give a zero if I could. Proof that not everyone should have a podcast.
  • Trindl19
    Love it!
    I love listening to these guys! Tommy has great insight into the strategy and I love to hear all their predictions and how they relate current players to past players. Glenny’s comments always make me laugh out loud!
  • mrs.barker_001
    Ok.. not sure.
    Your first take in the first 5 minutes was really tough. I’ve actually never listened to your podcast before. I wanted to hear a survivor recap so I searched and your guys came up. When you guys said it wasn’t racially motivated … that was very insensitive. You spent 3 minutes feeling bad for Jonathan and not coming to Drea and Mary-Anne’s defense at all. I don’t know I just feel like as a person of color, I cringed listening to you guys. That might not have been your intention but… it came off not so great? Why not consider bringing a person of color from a previous season to help navigate this if you were not prepared? .. “I don’t want the season to be too woke or whatever”
  • Cookie9432
    Clueless
    Three white boys discussing racism, decides there is none on Survivor, and then pat themselves on the back. Priceless
  • nooobz1278932
    Racist :p
    Dumb white guys being dumb white guys. Don’t click on it. Made me sad.
  • Morgan_34
    Nate needs to calm down
    It’s too much, nate. Lots of interrupting and yelling
  • dcarte28
    Great!
    Great show!
  • Joefasa75
    How can you not listen?
    Best Survivor Theme podcast in the game right now, I heard a rumor that they’re going to have Jeff on this summer, can’t wait for that interview.
  • zqxwcevrbt
    Get Tommy on Survivor
    I love that I found a show other than RHAP that talks about survivor. I love Tommy, Jeff, and Glenny. But I can not stand Nate. He has the worst takes on literally everything. I have disagreed with 99% of everything he has said. He is also just plain rude?? Making fun of contestants based on their weight isn’t what anyone wants to hear. If Nate leaves, I will give this pod 5 stars.
  • bil12345678912345
    Great pod
    Nate and Tommy make the pod. Very entertaining!
  • Stoolies Unite
    Nate is insufferable
    I love Tommy, JDL, and Glenny but Nate makes this unlistenable. He is so negative, constantly interrupts, and just miserable to listen to.
  • Snydro81
    TOMMY TOMMY TOMMY
    This pod is my second fav thing on wednesday nights.
  • batmantigershark
    Need more edge
    Feel like Jake adds nothing-it’s funny when everyone clowns on the contestants though Idk just feels like a very pg podcast Tommy is the star on it obviously
  • JayCurti
    Jake may do the pod naked
    I suggest watching on YouTube. Apparently Jake takes his clothes off randomly.
  • CSnare
    I want to like it.
    I want to love this. But they think the only value a woman has is to look pretty. The constant “she’s a mom” “she’s hot” “is she funny” “she’s a mean girl” limiting the women is exhausting. Some basic respect for women and their game play is needed.
  • Spencep94
    Get Nate off the Pod
    Nate is an absolute ear sore. Big fan of the rest of the crew, but Nate is the worst on literally anything he’s apart of. Can’t believe he has a job at Barstool still.
  • notacjance
    Cut the fat
    Get rid of Nate and Glenny. They don’t bring anything to the discussion. Nate just likes to insult people (ironic) and I don’t think Glenny understands the basic rules of the show
  • RoseMiller98765
    Insufferable idiots
    They don’t even get the facts straight. Next.
  • Low power guy
    RHAP is way better
    Title says it all
  • The Duke of Edinborough
    Tommy is the next Joe Rogan but better
    Title says it all. Tommy breaks down survivor better than Steven Cheah can break down Tampa Bay’s offensive line film. He is the future of survivor. And to top it off, he is a brilliant digital artist making once in a life time NFTs.
  • JTF2219
    Would be 5 stars without Nate
    Nate’s a great writer, but please get him off the pod. He obviously loves the show but last week’s recap with Jeff and Tommy was noticeably better without him. No disrespect. You guys do a great job.
  • Bowzers Wowzers
    Negative
    I wanted to like this show but the tone is a little too negative for me
