In this exciting episode of Reality Check with Heidi and Brad, the hosts sit down with Frannie from Survivor 44. The conversation kicks off with some playful banter about organ farming and buying Frannie’s kidney, setting a humorous tone for the episode.

As the discussion progresses, Frannie opens up about her Survivor journey and her relationship with Matt, which has not only endured but flourished. The couple is now happily living together in San Francisco. Frannie also shares her culinary tastes, revealing a deep love for curry—something she indulged in daily during her time on the island—and her aversion to classic American foods in favor of more diverse cuisines.

The conversation takes a creative turn when Brad pitches a new reality show idea called The Biggest Gainer, where physically fit contestants are put on an island and fed unhealthy food to see how weight gain affects their attractiveness. Frannie and Heidi suggest renaming it Love is Fat and explore its potential.

Frannie also discusses her own podcast, Surviving the Dice, where she and her co-hosts dive into Dungeons and Dragons. They highlight the game’s immersive and imaginative nature and even consider doing a special episode with a D&D master.

On the TV front, Frannie recommends Battlestar Galactica and Who Done It?, and shares her excitement for Survivor season 47. Brad and Heidi discuss potential themes for Survivor 50, including old school vs. new school and the possibility of bringing back past players for challenges. They also joke about forming alliances on the show and entertain the idea of appearing on Survivor themselves.

As the episode wraps up, Frannie talks about her upcoming marathon in October and invites listeners to follow her on social media for updates. Brad and Heidi promote their podcast, express admiration for various Survivor players, and discuss their own potential Survivor dreams.
