Purple Pants Podcast | Split The Vote: Trust Hotel
Welcome back to Split the Vote! Tim and Rob return with bold takes, deep dives, and major movement in Survivor 48, Episode 12: Icarus Time. The endgame is near—and the gameplay is finally heating up.
In This Episode:
• Survivor Chicken, Served Hot: Someone finally flinched—and the game caught fire. We break down the long-awaited big move that changed everything.
• Kyle & Kamilla’s Power Shift: They’re not floating anymore. We explore how timing, trust, and the “Trust Hotel” set them up to take control at Final 6.
• Joe’s Dilemma: Caught between Kyle and Shauhin, Joe’s decision was more emotional than strategic—and we’re unpacking every layer.
• Slow Burn or Silent Slay? Has this been a cautious season or lowkey masterclass? We debate whether patience is the new chaos.
• Shauhin’s Late-Game Playbook: From reward picks to reads, we give Shauhin his flowers and question whether pitching the Joe/Eva move was a mistake—or genius.
• Reward Strategy: That challenge win and the picks? More than emotional. We explain how it shaped the next phase of the game.Plus:
• Finale power rankings
• Who understood the assignment—and who didn’t
• Should we rethink what “loyalty” means in Survivor?
• Mail A Vote: Drop your finale predictions and questions—we might feature you next week!
