The time has come for the return of “Talking with T-Bird.” Each episode, Rob Cesternino (@robcesternino) and Survivor: Africa‘s Teresa “T-Bird” Cooper (@tbirdcooper) will catch up with a former Survivor player and talk about anything and take listener questions.

Survivor: Guatemala takes center stage as Rob Cesternino is joined by Survivor legend T-Bird and special guest Amy O’Hara for a spirited edition of Talking with T-Bird. Together, they look back at the grit, chaos, and unforgettable moments that shaped Survivor’s 11th season, highlighting the brutal physical challenges, dramatic tribe dynamics, and behind-the-scenes stories that never made it to air.

The episode begins with Amy sharing what it was like to join Survivor: Guatemala at the last minute, having only a week’s notice before heading into the Mayan jungle. She reflects on the infamous 12-mile hike that turned into a 20-mile ordeal, and how her background as a Boston police officer helped her survive both the elements and her fellow competitors. Rob and T-Bird dive into the impact of early idol twists, the struggles of competing on an injured ankle, and the surprising relationships forged in the wild — plus, Amy gets heartwarming video messages from fellow castaways like Stephenie and Danni.
