Three-Stage Showdown | Survivor 45

The only thing we love more than a three-stage challenge is a three-stage challenge with A TWIST! Jeff, Jay, and Rick discuss how production designs multi-tier challenges and how they’re upping the stakes with the potential to lose your vote and a trip to the Sanctuary. For the second week in a row, we’re left with the oldest players on the island, Bruce and Julie, duking it out for immunity. How come there aren't more older people on Survivor? Jeff responds to this frequently asked question, along with a few others from the “On Fire” mailbox, shedding light on the producer-players relationship and what happens if a challenge malfunctions.  Jeff, Jay, and Rick wrap the episode with their thoughts on what’s to come in the final weeks of Survivor 45!  Watch the latest episode of Survivor every Wednesday on CBS and Paramount+ and then catch all-new episodes of “On Fire” right after the show.
