Each week, hostJeff Probstwill answer a few questions about the latest episode ofSurvivor: Winners at War.
Shouldnt all the focus be on winning that challenge, so they evenhavea chance to win the game?
JEFF PROBST:Your question is a great example of why the new idea of aSurvivoreconomy is so interesting.

Everybody sees value in different things.
Two weeks ago, everybody thought Tyson was a fool to spend his tokens on peanut butter.
Was it the burst of energy that propelled him to the win?
The menu of choices was designed specifically to explore this idea.
So for them the protection of an idol made sense.
And maybe the most sobering news… all those tokens are gone.
The idol is gone.
The Edge of Extinction has a no layaway and no return policy.
They are starting from square one.
But it is a subjective opinion that cherry-picks only one aspect of the Edge.
I think every player would tell you the same thing.
Even the journey to get rice on the Edge is an ordeal.
Its not a science, for sure and Im not saying there arent better versions.
And word on the street is the Edge is controversial!
So well probably give it a rest for a while!
What did you make of the first post-merge Tribal, which ended with Wendell having his torch snuffed?
I LOVE how this group is playing.
This is a master class inSurvivor.
There is no one system that works.
First, it was the big group of old-school players that were the easy pickings.
But now theyre gone.
So whats the next big group?
This idea of target vs. no target is fascinating because all of them have won theyre all threats!
As for Wendell, his game has been up and down so far.
Hes one of the most popular winners of all time.
But you saw the old likable, funny, charming Wendell return at the merge.
Its so easy (and fun) to sit at home and judge every players game.
But I really respect this group.
They all came back knowing fans would have tremendous expectations and would be ultra-critical of their game play.
And, as players, youre extremely vulnerable onSurvivorbecause there is nowhere to hide.
They let us see the real, raw truth under extreme conditions.
I hope people remember that as they watch.
These players are putting on a phenomenal show for us.
Every single episode has been electric!
The best season ofSurvivorweve ever seen.
I bow down in respect.
Finally, I know you wont tell me much, but tell me SOMETHING about next weeks episode!
I cant deny the truth.
I think next weeks episode is even better than this weeks episode!
I keep saying it, butSurvivorfans should be grateful to this group.
They are giving us our moneys worth!!
