Heralded by the Washington Post as being “ostensibly about ‘Survivor’”, in this podcast, veteran fan ​Sean Ross and ​quarantine newbie ​Evan Ross Katz take a​ very gay​ deep dive into all things SURVIVOR. ​With a uniquely queer lens, ​Drop Your Buffs takes a retrospective look at the greatest seasons, players and iconic moments from the reality show​ that started it all​.​ Plus, we go straight to the source, interviewing legendary contestants of the game​​. But it doesn’t stop there. Evan and Sean also cover SURVIVOR-adjacent television, including THE TRAITORS, THE WHITE LOTUS and …AND JUST LIKE THAT.
