Hey kids! Here's where you can discuss all of the interviews, cast members etc - all the interviews are long this season as they were all interviewed with their duo. A typical Endure interview lasts about 20 minutes, so two people is about 40 minutes - and thus these interviews.

Anyways, as always leave your thoughts, everyone who has played knows that everyone LOVES pre-season thoughts, so let's hear em!

Sam is one of the best allies you could ask for tbh. Loyal to the people who she feels value her, not afraid to make a move with you, always telling you when you're being an idiot. My journey in Sierra Leone post-merge would have been dreadful if I didn't have Sam helping me through it, and I hope people see her as the valuable asset she can be from the beginning. I think she has the potential to go VERY far, as long as she doesn't have too many Patty's that she'll refuse to work with lol.

I've never played with Vic, but he's done well for himself in all the games I've seen. People like him, he's smart and savvy; definitely has the ability to be a great player. I'm super excited to see the dynamic Sam and Vic bring playing together and I really hope they have the opportunity to because it'll be GLORIOUS.

Sam is a very loyal player, she was my number one in a game we played and she had my back. She's funny, sassy, and smart. I think the fact that she hasn't played anything in a year and a half will help her, since she's met a few people in this cast. She is also a tough competitor. She hasnt gotten along with some people in the past(Patty, Kim, Bailey) so I think there will be some people in this cast she doesn't like. But overall I think we can see her going far.

Vic, I love him. My prod alliance from day 1 of s1 planning and now he's left me to play. I want him to do well but I'm afraid that he could run into Ashlee issues in being well connected just by being a past host. His tribe is a good fit for him I think and I hope he'll go far. He's very smart, strategic and very funny. He can lose his temper so as long as he keeps it cool he can do well.

Sam- Sam is a fighter, she's great. She is so easy to root for. She has the guts and NERVE, AND UNIQUENESS, TALENT to win this game. I'm gonna root the shit out of her. All day every day. Guns up, lights out. Big money mama.

Vic- Vic is my BOY. I don't need to see the rest of this cast. I got my winner pick right here. Look at this god damn champion and tell me he's not going to dominate this game.

Spoiler+


^me with the winner of Endure 5.

Vic's grown a lot since we played in iS together. He's got a beard, he's got a G.F. and he's got the determination to go ALL. THE. WAY. Pft so what he might be busy, he's gonna be too busy slaying the rest of the competition. Game set match. Play ball.

GROUP ONE: VIC AND SAM

Okay first of all, I met both of these lovelies while I was in Disney and that beard is DEFINITELY new. They both suck. <3

Sam: I love Sam because she has a way of drawing you in with her aura but at the same time seeming like she absolutely doesn't give a shit and it endears the pants off of anyone. I could see Sam getting into a solid majority early on and riding it to the merge. She's a logical level headed 3rd of 4th that a duo would want to pull into an alliance. If Sam doesn't make merge I'll be really surprised, but I think Sam will come off as too much of a threat to get to the end.

Prediction: Mid/Late Merge

Vic: Our next host turned player <3 Vic is a monotone ball of fun that takes some getting used to. Unlike Sam, I think Vic has the tendency to seem like he doesn't give a shit. He is a very smart, confident, strategic, dry humor guy, but his biggest thing that he has to worry about is getting his fellow tribe mates to see it too. If he doesn't get into an alliance, he'll be gone early. If he does, he'll be the most likely candidate to be blindsided by his own group before merge. Vic's game is going to rest on how other people perceive himPrediction: Mid/Late Merge

Prediction: Mid/Late Pre-merge

Together: Sam and Vic are really great as brother and sister, but I do not think they are going to be very compatible as players. Sam is a hero, Vic is a villain. Vic is Yin, Sam is Yang. They are so different that if they were to end up together I think they would be at each other's throats. The best thing for both of their games is for the other to leave before they have a chance to be swapped or merged together.

Sup it's The vicarios!!!! This is one of the reasons I have been excited for blood vs water! They are gonna be great. I think they have an interesting dynamic because Sam won't vote out Vic but Vic is more of the gamer and if he has to he will vote out Sam. Vic hasn't played in awhile so it will be interesting. I can see Vic being a typical merge boot because he plays hard. If either Sam or Vic get to the end they can win, it's just if people will let them get there. Both Vic and Sam are loyal players from what I have seen, so I think that can take them far unless someone is a big game hunter and wants to take out a vicario just to do a big move.

I want to see them go far, I would love Sam to vote out Vic In order to win if she had to because that would be unexpected and a great Ciera moment

I think Vic will be early jury maybe the first merge boot aka the Ryan spot

I think Sam will be middle jury at least

I am literally SO excited to see Vic/Sam play.
First of all, Vic is rocking that beard, I absolutely love it!
I had the pleasure of meeting both Vic and Sam and they are both so fantastic but so incredibly different from what I could tell from hanging out with them.

I think that their relationship is gonna be very interesting and unlike that of other duos, to me they always seemed to have that slight competitive edge that most sibling relationships have. I am curious to see if they are gonna root for each other and stick together, or eventually kinda just wanna outlast one another. I am hoping for the second one cause that would be gold to watch.

I think Sam is gonna be just fine in whatever tribe she gets, she is super likable and she seems to be super good at just finding common ground with about anyone. Vic, on the other hand, could be harder to connect with because he is less outgoing, and he hasn't played in a while (and he has a girlfriend, wonder if that would affect it?) but I honestly think Vic is gonna find his niche in whatever tribe he is placed on because he is good enough at challenges which will make people want to keep him until he can forge that solid alliance.

Basically I am so #teamVicario its not even funny. I think if either makes finals they are so well-spoken that it would be a given, but I doubt people will allow that to happen. Either way, rooting for these two and praying for a miracle.

Ayyy lmao sup peeps here's the first edition of:
Endure TL;DW
If you're wondering what the Vicario's are about but don't have 33 minutes, here's a condensed version of some of the highlights of their interview!

If anyone wants to help me pull timestamps from interviews to churn out these videos a little bit quicker feel free to contact me! These aren't anything too special, but for those who don't know the cast personally it's a great way to get to know them a little bit without having to spend a half hour watching!
