Survivor - Season 1 (Kevin Jacobsen)

Listen to awards season writer,  Kevin Jacobsen (@Kevin_Jacobsen) talk about his experience as a nine-year-old watching the first season of the watershed reality show "Survivor." Also...queer representation? Trans politics? How the producers of "Survivor" and the producers of the Oscars can take similar lessons in how to keep it fresh? Yes. All of that. A great example of a media text that "started it" for our guest in several respect.
