Ray Ramos

**Ray Ramos** was a castaway on *Survivor: Guadeloupe*.

**Current Residence:** Bayamon, Puerto Rico

**Occupation:** Auto Customizer

**Tribe Designation:** Galante

The first Puerto Rican castaway to ever compete on the show, Ray is proud to be representing his heritage on *Survivor.* Born and raised on the island by a mechanic father and a nurse mother, Ray learned the value of hard work early on from his parents. He helped out around his father's shop his whole childhood, always being obsessed with cars. In school, while he was a popular guy who was a star player on the futbol team, he had an artistic streak that he was at first embarrassed by. Now, he embraces it, working in his father's shop customizing cars, often painting them with cool designs his clients request. Ray also has recently been more open about his bisexuality, which serves as a learning experience for his tolerating but misinformed family.

Ray has always been all about the hustle, knowing he has to work hard for everything in life to get anywhere. He is a smooth-talker, bursting with charisma. While he claims he doesn't lie often, he says he is a master at "talking circles around the truth." He knows he is good-looking, maintaining his physique and style in order to maximize his attractiveness and use it to his advantage. He loves to party and meet new people, being a serial playboy and never staying in any relationship for long. While he is great at making new connections, he sometimes struggles to hold onto long-term relationships, sometimes growing irritated or bored if he is trapped in one place for too long.

Ray had never heard of *Survivor* before being recruited to play on the show by one of the casting directors when they were vacationing in Puerto Rico. However, Ray sees the show as an amazing opportunity to make bank. While he knows it will be an amazing experience, he is all in for the cash, believing that money is the key to happiness no matter what rich people say about it. He wants the million dollars to make life comfortable for himself and his family, and possibly to buy himself a pretty sportscar he has been dying to have his whole life. He knows, as a charismatic people person, he can destroy this game. Ray intends to do whatever is necessary to win the million, planning to flirt, lie, cheat, steal, and flex his way to the Final Tribal Council.

Ray is single. He lives with his parents Peet (51) and Marisol (49).
Rhodeia Black

**Rhodeia Black** was a castaway on *Survivor: Corsica.*

**Current Residence:** Yakima, OR

**Occupation:** Biochemist

**Tribe Designation:** Younger (Criscente)

**3 Words to Describe You:** Careful, Nice, Intelligent

**3 Things You'd Bring on the Island:** I'd have to bring my iPod to play some great tunes, like P!nk or Queen Bey to pump me up. I often get anxiety in social situations or before big events, so some music to pump me up would help me perform better. Also, my boyfriend Mac got me one of those handheld massagers as a joke on Valentine's Day last year, but I actually LOVE it, so that to calm me down. And also some of these scented candles from Yankee Candles, the smell just puts me into a trance and helps me chill out.

**Thoughts on Your Age Group:** I don't know, young people aren't terrible but I never really was a stereotypical party girl or anything like that. I'm not a complete loner, but I do have social anxiety quite often and I do prefer to spend time on my own, so I'm not for that crazy party lifestyle most people associate with younger people. I just like to kick back and talk with my small group of friends. Older people rock too, and I think age is really just a number in a lot of cases.

**Why are you the next Sole Survivor?:** Uh, I don't really know if I will be. A lot of people who come onto this show come ready and confident, but that's never been me. I love this show with all my heart but I'm a little worried I won't be able to fit in. However, I'm going to put it all out there; even if I fall as the first boot, I'll be proud that I got out there and did it. And who knows; maybe I'll really pull it off!

## Game

### *Survivor: Corsica*

Rhodeia began the game on the younger tribe, Criscente. Once there, she bonded with Ursie Hale and Alondra Sanchez after getting over her initial anixety, and the three navigated pre-swap Criscente together. Post-swap, Ursie and Rhodeia were in the minority by old tribal lines, but they convinced Karis Gatlin and Joanne Vernon to form a women's alliance with them and vote off Ngai Pham. In this way Rhodeia avoided elimination. After the merge, this group of four was the core of the majority alliance. However, when Karis tried to flip things at the Final 8, Rhodeia sided with Ursie and their Criscente allies to get her out. Once they got to the Final 6, Rhodeia believed she was heading to the Final 3 with Ursie and Alondra as planned. However, Ursie knew Rhodeia and Alondra were the biggest threats left, and at the Final 6 she teamed up with the other remaining castaways to take out Alondra. Now left alone in the game and blindsided by her closest ally Ursie, Rhodeia tried to fight to stay in, targeting Joanne for being likable. However, Ursie played one of her idols on Joanne to make sure she stayed in, and Rhodeia was voted out unanimously. At Final Tribal Council, although she was saddened by Urise's betrayal, she still gave her vote to Ursie for her exemplary game. Rhodeia narrowly lost the Fan Favorite vote to Lorine Ito.
I've Never Been This Desperate

**I've Never Been This Desperate** is the sixth episode of Survivor: Canary Islands - Blood vs. Water.

## Reward Challenge: Bear the Load

Four castaways will hold a long wooden pole on their backs, while the other two castaways will place weight on those poles. The other tribe's placers decide which castaway will receive the weight, and the goal is to make all of the other tribe's bearers drop out. The last tribe standing wins a trip to a local waterfall where they will have a feast and a natural pool party in the waterfall's pool.

All of Riada falls pretty early except for Roderick, who holds out and beats out all of the Sangres, singlehandedly winning the reward for Riada.

## Immunity Challenge: Water Brawl

Two teams, made up of three castaways of the same gender from the same tribe, will face off against one another to get a large inner tube to their side of the shallows. They must touch their tribe colored pole in order to win. The first tribe to earn two points will win Immunity.

 Losers

Riada lost both face offs to a victorious Sangre and faced Tribal Council.

## Tribal Council #6: Riada

 Edgar (1 vote)

### Explanation of the Boot

This boot wasn't very difficult for the castaways of the New Riada tribe. Vince's Sangre alliance minus himself (Brenna, Edgar, Liris, and Soo Jung) were swapped onto the Riada tribe and had the majority. Also, two of its members had loved ones on the tribe who assimilated into the alliance (Soo Jung/Tae Min and Liris/Roderick). The strong New Riada alliance was formed here. Despite Carlota's best efforts, she was easily left out as relatives joined their blood's majority alliance, leaving her the only and easy target. Carlota tried to get Edgar voted out for being a weaker competitor, trying to form an alliance with her ex-Riada allies Tae Min and Roderick, hoping to pull in their loved ones Soo Jung and Liris to form a majority. This failed and made Carlota even more of a target, leading to her unanimous vote off.

## Trivia

The episode title, "I've Never Been This Desperate", was said by Carlota after she realized how everyone else on her tribe had formed and alliance. She was talking about how hopeless she felt and that she was willing to do anything to stay.
Marshall Jameson

**Marshall Jameson** was a castaway on *Survivor: Honduras - Fans vs. Favorites.*

## **Bio**

### ***Honduras***

**Name (Age):** Marshall Jameson (45)

**Current Residence:** Rockford, IL

**Occupation:** Office Worker

**Tribe Designation:** Fans (Llegada)

**3 Words to Describe You:** Industrious, Methodical, Cheerful

**3 Things You'd Bring on the Island:** My laptop! You can do anything on a laptop; communicate with others, play games, write down thoughts, watch TV, whatever, so that would be great to have out there, a tie to normal life. I'd also love to bring my cushy recliner, just to have a place to relax, and somewhere comfortable to sleep! And a blanket, if it gets chilly, so I can keep warm.

**Previous Castaway You're Most Like:** I'd like to think I'm a lot like Dev from Barbados and Socotra, my favorite Survivor ever! We're both a little older than most on Survivor, and we both have great minds and a passion for this show. And I think I can become a legend just like him.

**Why are you the next Sole Survivor?:** I love Survivor because any person can come on and do their best if they have the right mix of social and physical skills. While I may be more of a couch potato than an athlete, I get along with most people pretty well and I think I can glide through most of this game because I won't be much of a threat. The hardest part will be the first few votes when people vote based on strength, but after that I'll be able to play the way I want to: greatly!

## ***Honduras***

Marshall struggled to make social connections once he arrived in the game. Despite being on the outside of the majority on the Fans tribe, he survived the first vote due to doing well on the puzzle in the Reward challenge, and due to Moira Pruitt's inability to fit in. However, after he blew the second Immunity challenge for the tribe and Pia Chavez fought well for her life in the game, a majority of the Fans turned against him and voted him out.

Eugenia Urbytes

**Eugenia Urbytes** was a castaway on *Survivor: Barbados.*

## Bio

Eugenia Urbytes, 66, is a college professor at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. Eugenia always had a passion for the sciences and learning as a child, and was determined to become a scientist. Later in life, she discovered her true passion after working as a biochemist for almost two decades: teaching. Now a resident professor at Brown University, Eugenia tries to keep life exciting now that her two children are having families of their own and her husband has passed away. Survivor is her way of getting excitement back into her life and she also loves the show and is quite the superfan. She plans to use her knowledge of the game and her common sense to help propel her to victory, although she does worry that her age and sometimes commandeering personality might hinder her.

## Game Summary

Eugenia started out on the Zsalet, or Older Women tribe. She swiftly bonded with Maura Phipps, an attorney, over their love of education. However, she felt like an outcast due to being the oldest on the tribe. Zsalet managed to barely win the first Immunity/Reward challenge of the season, but the second one they lost by a wide margin. Amy Donahue lead the campaign to get Eugenia out, as her physical weakness had cost the tribe the win. Amy also found her scheming with Maura unsettling, and her close friend Antonia Danieli agreed. Leela Parish was in the middle of the pairs of Eugenia/Maura and Antonia/Amy, and Eugenia managed to sway Leela to her side by showing how close Amy/Antonia were and how Amy had also done poorly in the challenge. Eugenia barely saved herself from elimination in a 3-2 vote that sent Amy home.

Then, the four tribes absorbed into 3. Eugenia was sent to New Osona, where she was the only Zsalet on a tribe with three young Wovel men and two older Cambor men. Eugenia managed to bond with Ernesto Hernandez over their shared Hispanic heritage, but they were unable to break the alliance that had formed between the three Wovels and the other older man, Rafferty Dolan. New Osona lost their first challenge as a new tribe due to a blunder from Eugenia, and despite her efforts to get out Nel for being a threat, she was sent packing in a 4-2 vote.

Dhuki

**Dhuki**is one of three original starting tribes that appear in Survivor: Chad - Brains vs. Brawn vs. Beauty.

The Dhuki tribe was the Brains tribe, containing castaways who rely heavily on their intelligence and book smarts to get through day to day life. It produced two of the series' most memorable castaways that were also an amazing duo: Nick Wilkins and Jakob Sobol, both of whom would go on to become Sole Survivors.

## Members

### Original Tribe

► Donny Kearns, an unemployed genius from Exton, PA

► Jakob Sobol, a forensic geneticist from Indianapolis, IN

Kelly Slatt

**Kelly Slatt** was a castaway on *Survivor: Rome - The Underworld*.

**Current Residence:** Audubon, Iowa

**Occupation:** Podcast Host

**Tribe Designation:** Pluto

**3 Words to Describe You:** Passionate, Curious, Outspoken

**3 Interesting Facts About You:** I grew up on a farm in the middle of nowhere Nebraska, and I needed to get out of there quick and make a life for myself! I lived in New York City for a long time, pursuing my passion for comedy. I did a bunch of stand up comedy competitions and stuff, but I never hit it big, but I have a pretty popular podcast now that I've moved back to the Midwest that's all about comedians and comedy that helps keep my bills paid! Some people say it crosses some lines but it keeps growing so I think I'm doing it right!

**Favorite Past Castaway:** You know, I'm all about the jokester-types on this show, and by far my favorite castaway ever has to be Lorine Ito. There's no one funnier that's ever been on this show, I promise you, and I love rewatching her seasons just to see all of her jokes and quips. I aspire to be as sharp, witty, and kooky as her on the island. You don't have to be the strongest or smartest to make a fantastic impression!

**Why Will You Be the SOLE SURVIVOR?:** I feel like I have an electric personality that a lot of people enjoy. I've always been about making a fool out of myself and making other people laugh, and I think I can bring that comedic energy to the island and play a game few others have. It's going to be all about making everyone underestimate me and get along with me and love my sense of humor. I think it's a new strategy and I think I'm going to keep them all laughing all the way up to Final Tribal Council when they write my name down for the million dollar check!

Janelle Monae

**Janelle Monae** was the Sole Survivor of *Random Survivor 3: 2019 Grammy Nominees.*

Janelle entered the game and quickly began to play an impressive social game, connecting with everyone on her tribe, especially Ella Mai and Miguel. These bonds grew tight as her tribe won nearly every pre-merge challenge, and at the merge Janelle used her social skills to work behind the scenes and stay undetected. She made a big move in taking out the leader of her alliance, Childish Gambino, before keeping her majority alliance together for the rest of the game. Her strong jury management as well as a pretty good FTC performance helped cinch her the win over her closest ally Miguel.
Carry Hepburn

**Carry Hepburn** was a castaway on *Survivor: Swaziland.*

## Bio

Carry Hepburn, the 20 year old from Tulsa, Oklahoma, is a wild and sassy young lady. Having been expelled from college after hosting a rave that destroyed an entire park (she claims she dropped out), she moved back home with her parents and currently lives in their basement, unemployed. She's single and spends much of her nights at clubs and bars having the time of her life and drinking and dancing her worries away. Carry is a fierce and independent woman, and emotional as well. She doesn't take bullshit from anyone and says she can sniff out whenever someone is lying to her, and knows that will help her win the game. She desperately needs the money and will go to any lengths to achieve her goal. While she may be extremely whiny, bitchy, and unbearable to most, she is here on Survivor to work her ass off for the million and she won't back down until she gets it.

Christelle Bofale

**Christelle Bofale** was a castaway on *Survivor: Namibia.*

**Current Residence:** Austin, TX

**Occupation:** Guitarist

**Tribe Designation:**  Khoekhoe

**3 Words to Describe You:** Relaxed, Dreamer, Passionate

**Favorite Past Castaway:** My favorite castaway has to be Nichole Tarquin. I related to her a lot, she honestly reminds me a lot of my mom, and I just felt like I loved how she played the game. Both her and Pia deserved to win the season, but personally I would've voted for Nichole, and I think it's terrible that she wasn't on All Stars!

**Why Will You Be the SOLE SURVIVOR?:** I like to think I'm a pretty lax person. Sure, I have my things I care about: my guitar playing, my songs, my dogs, my parents. But I think I'm easy to get along with. Being Congolese American, I understand what it's like to be different, I don't quite look like many people. But those differences help me understand others and my tolerance level will help me socialize and adapt in this game for sure. I'm not going to give up also.

## Voting History

### *Survivor: Namibia*

Christelle started out pretty strong in the season, being generally well liked and a hard worker. She formed an alliance early on with Mi Na Phan and Lewis Chang, and helped Mi Na survive elimination at the first Tribal Council. However, when Mi Na was voted out at the following Tribal, Lewis and Christelle were left in the minority. Despite their best efforts to break apart the majority, Lewis and Christelle were forced to go head to head to stay at the next Tribal Council. While the target originally rested on Lewis for being a bigger liability in challenges, Morty Villegas overheard her talking to herself about wanting to flip on Khoekhoe at the merge. Alarmed by this, the majority alliance decided Christelle was too big of a wildcard at the upcoming merge, and voted her off instead.

Keith Howland

**Keith Howland** was a castaway on *Survivor: Corsica.*

**Current Residence:** Blanket, TX

**Occupation:** Rodeo Cowboy

**Tribe Designation:** Older (Anzianu)

**3 Words to Describe You:** Silly and Adrenaline Junky

**3 Things You'd Bring on the Island:** I would be a logistical nightmare, but if I could get my horse Jamison out there, that would be awesome. We're just best buddies, we go crazy at rodeos and it's going to be rough being away from him for over a month. Then a phone so I can keep in touch with my missus and my three daughters. And also binoculars so I can scope out when people are looking for an idol or having secret conversations from afar.

**Thoughts on Your Age Group:** I don't exactly consider myself old yet, I mean I'm barely in my 40s and I'm still pretty athletic and young acting. I spend most of my time with 20 and 30 somethings, drinking in bars and doing crazy stunts, so let's just say I haven't necessarily learned to appreciate the older lifestyle!

**Why are you the next Sole Survivor?:** This game is a wild ride, but so is a bucking bronco or an angry bull or whatever I have to tame in the ring. I know how to hold on with all of my might, I know when to take risks and when to save what I've got. I'm a pretty social dude and I'm athletic especially for my age, so that'll help me take the title too.

**3 Things You’d Bring on the Island:** I’d bring the book of love letters my boyfriend Brady has sent me, he’s sent me one every week since he went off to college and they’re precious to me. Probably a phone so I can talk to my ma and my siblings, and also a mirror so I can watch myself progress into wild Brenna! Hahaha!

**Why are you the next Sole Survivor?:** People aren’t going to expect much from me because I’m young and blonde and I’m not the strongest or smartest girl. But I am fiercely loyal, and I am here to fight for the money for my family and so I can go to college.

**3 Words to Describe You:** Shy, Quirky, Honest

**3 Things You’d Bring on the Island:** Something like tofu or some other yummy vegan food to substitute for the fish. I know this is a social game and people feel good if you eat their fish but I'm not breaking my morals for this game! Probably an umbrella too in case it rains, and also my camera so I can snap some real beauty shots and maybe sell a few on my website!

**Previous Survivor Contestant You're Most Like:** I think I'm a lot like Kellyn Bechtold or Aubry Bracco, just sorta odd and quirky and a little awkward but I mean well! And I think I'll do well too!

**Why are you the next Sole Survivor?:** I'll admit, I fit into an archetype role sorta on this show, and my archetype often does fantastic! I'm just going to be my best me, and try to play my best and most honest game. I'm not going to break my morals for this game but that doesn't mean I'm not here to win or fight for the money!

**3 Words to Describe You:** Tough, Traditional, Hard-working

**3 Things You’d Bring on the Island:** Gotta bring my buddy Tom, he's loved this show since he was pint sized and would explode, like litally, if he came out here. Then probably some beer to make it a real fun night, you know what I'm sayin'? Whoever said you can't party a little on the island? And then somethin' to make all the little snowflakes shut their traps, no one cares about your jibber jabber!

Nobu Callait

**Nobu Callait** was a castaway on *Survivor: Ecuador*.

**Current Residence:** Tampa, Florida

**Occupation:** Aquarium Salesman

**Tribe Designation:** Cuevita

**3 Words to Describe You:** Nerdy, Excitable, Fish-lover

**3 Interesting Facts About You:** I'm living the dream right now! I install aquariums big and small for clients all over central and southern Florida with my company called Nobu Tanks. I get to pick out the fish, coral, everything, and it's so much fun. My obsession with fish started when I was in 3rd grade and I won a goldfish from the fair. Most kids let it die or forget about it, but I took care of mine so well that I fell in love with fishkeeping. I run Nobu Tanks with my girlfriend of four years, Alecia, who is also an aquarist like me!

**Favorite Past Castaway:** There's never been any fish lovers on this show before (I'm a one of a kind contestant!) so I'd have to go with someone who makes me laugh my butt off every time I see her on TV, Lorine Ito. She's just hilarious and so self deprecating that it kills me!

**Why Will You Be the SOLE SURVIVOR?:** Pfft, I probably won't be. I just wanted to try this out, get some recognition for Nobu Tanks, and get out of the house, and also maybe see some wild fish I've never seen outisde of a tank before. But that doesn't mean I'm not going to try! I'm going to make the most of the experience, even if I am a socially awkward nerd who's only good at talking about things that live underwater.

## Voting History

### *Survivor: Ecuador*

Nobu struggled to mesh with his tribe early on in Ecuador. Despite not fitting into the tribe, he was able to establish a strong relationship with fellow animal lover Emanuelle Pouydebat. After Cuevita lost the first Immunity, they tried to save themselves from the bottom by causing a fight with Zachary Heiffel and making him seem volatile. However, the majority alliance held strong and voted out Nobu first for causing drama and being an outsider of the alliance.
Gladice Stebbens

**Gladice Stebbens** was a castaway on *Survivor: Laos - Anarchy.*

**Current Residence:** Dearborn, MI

**Occupation:** Mechanic

**Tribe Designation:** None (Anarchy)

**3 Words to Describe You:** Confident, Tough, Feminist

**3 Interesting Facts About You:** I'm the fourth generation of mechanics in my family, I'm the first girl in all those generations to be a mechanic, and I'm actually allergic to tilapia, so they better not have those nasty guys wherever we're going!

**Strategy, Social, or Physical?:** Pfft, maybe I'll get some flack for this, but physical. Everyone needs some social and strategic play, but anyone can do those. Not everyone can beast most of the challenges and absolutely dominate their way to the end. While it may not be the "safest" route or whatever, it's the most exciting characteristic to have and it provides for a fun game.

**Why are you the next Sole Survivor?:** Women fucking rule, it's our time to take over the world, and we're doing it right before your eyes. I'm strong and I'm proud to be a straight tough woman, and I'm going to use that self confidence to impress others and get them to work for me in the game. I'm going to be a leader out there, and no one's going to be able to stop me!

Gladice was outspoken from the first moments of her game in *Laos*, and most of her castmates took notice early on. She tried to form an all woman's alliance, and these attempts began to take hold as she allied with a few women, particularly Audrey Scappioli, Taya South, Nabila Bilel, and more. However, Gladice got stuck on a bad team for her during the first round of the game. It was filled with strong men threatened by her forming of a female alliance and her outspoken feminist beliefs that a woman should win the game. She tried her best to turn the vote against Army Calorio for his amazing athletic abilities, but most of the people on her team decided she was too threatening and voted her out instead, making her the first boot.

I Hear Everything

**I Hear Everything** is the 4th episode of *Survivor: Seychelles*.

## Story

### Night 9

Rawan sits in the shelter on Redemption Island, smiling kindly as she watches Mona climb out of the boat and walk up the beach towards her. Rawan opens her mouth to greet Mona, but the woman simply walks past her.

As Mona lays down and passes out almost immediately, Rawan is left sitting alone in shock. She shakes it off, chuckling to herself under her breath before laying down too.

### Day 10

The next morning, Su is shown standing inside the the brownish-red Redemption Arena with a large number of boxy crates behind him. He calls in the representatives from each tribe who take a spot on the observation bench. Rylee has come from Digue to support Rawan, while Mahe and Praslin have both drawn lots back at camp, with Priya and Donnie respectively watching the duel.

Once the spectators are seated, Su calls in Rawan and Mona, who stand beside him as he explains the second Redemption Island duel of the season. Each women will have to toss sandbags, attempting to land a bag on top of each of their ten crates. The first person to get at least one bag onto each of the ten crates will win the duel and remain in the game. Rawan and Mona take their places, and the duel begins.

 Castaways

**Highlights:**

* Both women begin throwing their sandbags with little success, as neither is very skilled with aim or hand-eye coordination. Thus, the challenge is slow going, with both women taking about two minutes to land their first bags.
* While it is originally neck and neck, Mona becomes more and more frustrated by her misses, stomping the ground and cursing, while Rawan focuses quietly and begins improving her technique.
* Ten minutes into the challenge, Rawan has her sandbags on every crate except the farthest one, while Mona has only gotten sandbags on four of her crates. Mona pouts, sitting on the ground as Rawan throws her final bag onto her final crate. As it lands, Su declares Rawan has won her second duel.

Rawan sighs in relief, clutching her chest and smiling up at the stands where Rylee claps excitedly for her. Rawan tries to give Mona a hug, but the woman holds out her arm to keep her competitor away, and Rawan obliges. Su then tells Mona she is the second person eliminated from the game, and asks her to burn her buff in the cauldron near the exit of the arena. Mona simply growls in response, mumbling she is ready to leave while throwing her buff into the fire. Donnie watches her leave with a smile on her face as Mona disappears from the arena.

Geraldine Fraiser

**Geraldine Fraiser** was a castaway on *Survivor: Kazakhstan*.

**Current Residence:** Cheyenne, Wyoming

**Occupation:** Archivist

**Tribe Designation:** Qypchak

**Some Interesting Facts About You:** I have a deep love for history, and I've always been interested in it. I have a master's degree in history, and I worked as a history professor for many years before recently changing jobs to something less taxing as I've moved into older age. I currently manage the archives of the Wyoming State Museum, and it's a splendid job. I am a single woman, as I've never found the perfect man for me, but I am very close to my two sisters and their children, and they are enough for me.

**Favorite Past Castaway:** There have been plenty of ladies that I've admired on this show for their tenacity and intellect. If I had to select only one to be my favorite, however, I would have to say Mitzi Vo is my favorite. She is one of the smartest people I've ever seen play the game, and her fierce independence as something I admired greatly. I usually believe whoever wins deserves it most, but there's no denying Mitzi deserves to win more than almost anyone who's ever played!

**Why Will You Be the SOLE SURVIVOR?:** I'm not a foolish or naive woman, and I know that my true chances of winning the game are slim. My age and my professionalism are not going to be my friend on the island or wherever else this season is going to be happening. However, my mind is still as sharp as a tack, and I have a passion to prove myself in this game that is unmatched I believe.

**Tribe Designation:** Riada

**Loved One:** Brenna (Daughter)

**3 Words to Describe You:** Serious, Determined, Brave

**3 Things You’d Bring on the Island:** A razor, so I don’t look like a total caveman. My hair grows fast! Also, probably some good food or beer for when I get really hungry. Also a picture of my wife and the rest of my kids besides Brenna, who’s my oldest, to remind me of what I’m fighting for here.

**Why are you the next Sole Survivor?:** I’ve come out here to win for my family. We don’t have a fancy or even very comfortable lifestyle, and a million dollars could really improve it. I have a lot of kids, and I want them all to be able to go to college. This is my chance to provide that dream for them, so I’ll do whatever I have to to get that done.

**Name (Age):** Soo Jung Kim (46)

**Current Residence:** Hamden, CT

**Occupation:** Oncologist

**Tribe Designation:** Sangre

**Loved One:** Tae Min (Husband)

**3 Words to Describe You:** Careful, Cool, Observant

**3 Things You’d Bring on the Island:** I’d bring a water purifier so I know that we’d have clean water from the first day, as I don’t like going long without water, being dehydrated will probably be my worst fear out on the island. I’d bring my Kindle to read things on to pass the time, and probably a sketchbook to write down my ideas in.

**Why are you the next Sole Survivor?:** Tae Min has always been the talker in the relationship, always meeting people and making bonds. He’s going to go in and play the social game, while I’ll be the strategic thinker. I know this game better than I know myself, and I’m ready to use everything I’ve got to outwit everyone on the island.

Milo Witschi

**Milo Witschi** was a castaway on *Survivor: Socotra.*

**Current Residence:** Nashua, NH

**Occupation:** Video Game Developer

**Tribe Designation:** Wahid

**3 Words to Describe You:** Nerdy, Talkative, Strategic

**3 Things You’d Bring on the Island:** I’d bring my computer so I can kick back and relax with some games to distract myself from the starvation! Also some Monster, a good thing to keep my mind running with strategy all the time and to get me ready for the challenges. Oh, and lotion. Don’t ask.

**Previous Survivor You’re Most Like:** I’d say I’m a lot like a younger Harris Mueller, we’re both video game nerds, and I plan to play hard like him, but I’ll have more of a social game and not fall just short of the title! Also like Lambert but not as kind, haha.

**Why are you the next Sole Survivor?:** I know this game in and out and I love strategy typed games like this, they’re my life’s work and all! I’m going to blow everyone else out of the water with my strategic thinking, and unlike many other nerdy players I’ll have a strong social game! I’m very chatty and I can strike up conversation with anyone, so that’ll be a big strength for me!

Cora Spedman

**Cora Spedman** was the second runner up of *Survivor: Socotra.*

**Current Residence:** Pasadena, CA

**Occupation:** Personal Shopper

**Tribe Designation:** Wahid

**3 Words to Describe You:** Bubbly, Fun loving, Observant

**3 Things You’d Bring on the Island:** My phone to keep up to date with everything going on and so I can prove someone wrong when there’s a dispute about some random fact during a conversation while we’re trying to distract ourselves from starvation! Also a board game like Monopoly or something that takes forever to pass the time. And an icebox just for the ice so we can stay chilled out.

**Previous Survivor You’re Most Like:** I think I’m a lot like if you crossed Xiomara from Swaziland with Brenna from Canary Islands. Equal parts hot/trendy and sweet/passionate!

**Why are you the next Sole Survivor?:** Why not? I’m gonna go out there, do my darned best, and win this thing! Sure, life is good, but life would be a heck of a ton better with a million friggin’ dollars in the bank! I wanna win really bad, and that’ll help me survive to the end along with my social skills!

Lambert Osten

**Lambert Osten** was the second runner up of *Survivor: Barbados.*

**Current Residence:** Sacramento, CA

**Occupation:** Social Worker

**Tribe Designation:** Wovel (Younger Men)

**3 Words to Describe You:** Caring, Passionate, Bookish

**3 Things You’d Bring on the Island:** I would definitely bring my journal and a pack of pencils to help keep my emotions in check and so I can record how I feel during every moment of this wonderful experience, I really want to savor it because as a huge superfan this has been my dream for a while. I'd also bring my favorite book of poems by Rudyard Kipling to keep my mind at ease and entertained.

**Previous Survivor Contestant You're Most Like:** I know many will be quick to write me down as some nerdy cocky superfan, but I'm really not like that so I don't think I'm like Cochran or Harris or any of those people. I think I'm probably more like Ian Rosenberger from Palau, maybe just a little less...confident?

**Why are you the next Sole Survivor?:** I know I may not look like much, and I'm not a ton, but I do have a big brain and a warm smile and I'm going to put those both to good use. As a social worker, it's my job to make people feel comfortable and to help them, and I think that ability of putting people at ease will help me in this game. I also can think strategically and I've seen every season of the show, so I'll be able to keep up strategically as well and outwit most of my competitors.

Emerson Wilmot

**Emerson Wilmot** was the Sole Survivor of *Survivor: Laos - Anarchy.*

**Current Residence:** Milford, CT

**Occupation:** Writer

**Tribe Designation:** None **(**Anarchy**)**

**3 Words to Describe You:** Friendly, Kind, Perceptive

**3 Interesting Facts About You:** I wrote my first story when I was six years old, and I haven't been able to stop writing since! I got my first book published when I was sixteen, and I've had four other books published since then, almost entirely in sci fi, and one of them, *Sola*, got towards the top of the New York Times Bestsellers list! It was around 4 or 5! I'm also engaged to the woman of my dreams, Lainey, and I cannot wait for our lives together.

**Strategy, Social, or Physical?:** If you've ever actually watched this show you know that the immediate answer has to be social. Anyone who plays as a challenge beast or a strategic mastermind usually falls, while those who play the socialite usually have a better success rate. I'm here to win, not be a blazing comet who blows out too soon, so social is definitely the biggest.

**Why are you the next Sole Survivor?:** A lot of people come out on Survivor planning to be these memorable characters, to get fame, to be remembered. However, I'm already famous enough with my books, and I'm coming out here to win, not be remembered. I don't care if I have to go under the radar or if people don't like me, I'll take whichever strategy will bring me the farthest in this game. I'm adaptable, creative, and perceptive and that'll help me traverse the rocky social terrain of this game.
Leodegario Cardoso

**Leodegario Cardoso** was a castaway on *Survivor: Kazakhstan*.

**Current Residence:** Elko, Nevada

**Occupation:** Drugstore Owner

**Tribe Designation:** Qypchak

**Some Interesting Facts About You:** I've been happily married to my wife Roslyn for thirty seven years, and we have six children together that are all grown up and living their own lives now. I personally own a chain of three local drugstores in Nevada that I operate and manage myself, and it's allowed to me to live a comfortable lifestyle. I don't have much time outside of work, but my top hobby is woodworking, a talent my father taught me as a young boy.

**Favorite Past Castaway:** I watch this show more for the strategic element and the excitement, so I choose not to root for certain castaways most of the time. However, Marvin Lowe is a personal exception. He is so darkly humorous, and another older man who is willing to do whatever to win. Definitely the most entertaining and relatable villain I've seen in the past sixteen seasons.

**Why Will You Be the SOLE SURVIVOR?:** I have lots of experience as a leader and in life in general. I feel as if I am someone who will have a lot of skills that other people on the island will lack. I'm not a 20-something influencer coming out here to get famous, I'm coming out here to play a smart and measured game and come out on top. That's why I firmly believe I have a strong chance at winning this game.

Ngai Pham

**Ngai Pham** was a castaway on *Survivor: Corsica.*

**Current Residence:**Payson, AZ

**Occupation:**Acupuncturist

**Tribe Designation:**Older (Anzianu)

**3 Words to Describe You:**Kindly and Detail Oriented

**3 Things You'd Bring on the Island:**Not my needles, I love my work but Survivor is a break from that. I'd probably bring jars of my favorite food, peanut butter. Delicious, and it would give our tribe the needed protein. After that, probably my favorite fuzzy slippers to wear around camp to relax in. Oh, and a toothbrush! Plaque covered teeth, ack!

**Thoughts on Your Age Group:**We all wish we were younger, so of course it's rather uninspiring to be lumped into the older crowd. But I am in that crowd, and I can't say I despise it. Sure, many of us can't move as well as we used too, and we're cranky from now and then, but they're my people. We grew up to the same things, so I relate quite a lot more to older people, especially now.

**Why are you the next Sole Survivor?:**I plan to play a more under the radar game going into Survivor; I am not very physically gifted, especially at my age, so I will have to rely on my brain and social skills. I plan to stick into as many majority alliances as I can, letting other people do the heavy lifting in the earlier stages of the game before starting to take control towards the end.
