"Well, obviously there's unfinished business," says the former Obama speechwriter and Pod Saves America co-host. "I didn't get to do any business! Here's what I'd say. I have truly no regrets about doing it. I'm really glad I did it. Even just the short time I had, it was a fascinating and rewarding experience. When you get voted out of Survivor, you start figuring out the story you tell yourself about what happened, but that takes a beat. And when you're at Ponderosa, one by one these raw people come in and they just let it all out. And I learned so much about Survivor from those raw conversations before the narratives take hold. You can gather the little bits of information and a narrative to repair your ego a bit — kind of like what I'm doing with you right now. That was really fascinating, and it did make me want to have the experience I had hoped I'd have. So I would say, Jeff knows where to reach me."
