Survivor New Zealand just finished a great season, so David Bloomberg is here with a special podcast and special guest Shannon Gaitz to wrap it all up and discuss the winner. Lisa went in with a plan and came out with the crown. How did that plan sync up with David’s rules? What did Lisa do to overcome various obstacles that brought down other Survivor superfans before her? What impact did Matt revealing his friendship with Dave have on the end result? David and Shannon break it all down and discuss the details of Lisa’s game as they figure out Why Lisa Won.
