These are always entertaining, and like Jeff's blogs, may contain 'spoilers' we could use in this spoiler-free season. Enjoy! Episode 8 ~ Part 1: "Marcus discusses life on Survivor Ponderosa" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TK4KyABpu8g Part 2: "Marcus enjoys a traditional Spanish drink" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7UoLYNATEYs Part 3: Marcus, the Ponderosa clues, and the lighthouse. Chopper to the Tribal Council, as the first jury member. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOwsuxVQ6mM More to come. Last Edited By: Roadfinder 11/21/09 8:25 PM. Edited 8 times.

I'm not expecting any "spoilers" (yet?), but we'll see when others join them. I have mixed feelings about having a season without spoilers. Any "spoilers" we have are coming from Jeff Probst. LOL Charlie arrives at Base Camp, Marcus goes to greet him, then next day it's on to Ponderosa: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJBW5x0tCMc Charlie and Marcus are good friends. Dinners in Ponderosa are cooked by an older French couple. Great food. MB sure treats his castaways well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3eM0uLuUr3M My bro tells me that after Survivor, Marcus and Charlie applied to be in the Amazing Race together.

Seriously? Somehow I don't see this happening, they aren't that exciting a duo to include them in the show.

I think Marcus may not be as "straight" as he thinks he is. Call me crazy if you will but I have personally seen men who considered themselves heterosexual find themselves later in life and realize that they are gay. Not a judgment, merely an observation.

However, I do know straight guys who enjoy the attention of gay guys. To them it's safe, since nothing will come of it--but they get to be idolized, fawned over. I'm guessing this is what is happening.

And let's not forget the straight bartenders working at gay bars, some half dressed, who know how to work it for tips.

Randy arrives at Ponderosa, showers and cleans up, and he's among friends, good food, good company; but he's still his grumpy old self. LOL They go on a "fishing safari" and Randy catches a 2-pound fish. Off they go later, dressed in black robes and hoods, to the next Tribal Council. On a side note ~ In Survivor: Gabon, I miss the water challenges! Whatever happened to them? They're close to an ocean, for crying out loud! Bring them on!

Not seen, a conversation between Randy and Matty: Matty: What was the biggest tragedy? The family thing. Randy: Uh...I mean everything. One tops the other. The dog replaced the family thing. Randy (solo): My dog Johnson meant more to me than any of these people will. He's been dead 5 years. I miss him to this day. So it's tough for me. Matty: So the family thing was huge, the thing with your... Randy: Yeah, and then the dog helped me deal with it, and then the dog was gone. The dog was 5 years ago. All I've done with it. Randy (solo): I'm not the nicest guy in the world. I've had a tough 49 years. Matty knows if you get me, you're not offended by me. If you don't get me, you go crying home to Mama. Randy: I thought I was gonna die. I swear to God I did. Matty: After your dog? (Randy says yes) Crazy. Randy: I didn't eat for about a week. Ended up in the hospital. Then I just decided this isn't worth it. Me starving to death isn't going to bring him back. Nothing to be ashamed of. Matty: What do you want in your life now? Randy: I wanna get a new dog next month. Matty: Not like a wife or anything? Randy: If that happens, it happens, but I'm not planning on it. I'm planning on the dog. I know I can trust the dog.

What is the 'family thing' Matty and Randy are referring to? A family tragedy? Is he shunned by his family for some reason? Anyone know?
