Each week on the Jack Vita Show, Jack sits down for an exit interview with the most recent eliminated contestant from NBC's Deal or No Deal Island. This week, he speaks with the eighth contestant eliminated, 55 year-old social worker La Shell Wooten.

La Shell was selected to play the banker this week by four-time Survivor contestant Parvati Shallow. With three cases remaining in her game of Deal or No Deal, La Shell accepted a deal for $1.558 million, which gave her a one in three shot at securing a good deal. Unfortunately for the North Carolina resident, her case held $1.75 million, ensuring that she made a bad deal, making her the eighth contestant eliminated from the Banker's Island.

La Shell visits the Jack Vita Show and provides some clarity on several matters from Deal or No Deal Island. La Shell did not receive a great deal of screentime, so this interview provides a nice look at her gameplay, her strategy, and her thought process throughout her time on the show. La Shell ways in on the Parvati-Phillip conflict from the past week, providing a fair, objective view from the lens of a social worker. She details why she doesn't think Parvati's claims of "emotional manipulation" are true, and also explains why she didn't trust Parvati at all. La Shell reveals who she would have sent home had she defeated the banker, and shares why she sent home Sydnee Peck earlier in the season, in her first time playing the banker. Plus: why did she accept the deal when she only had a one in three chance of surviving? All this, and much more, only on the Jack Vita Show!
