I think it's like Paramount or somebody.

So like Jeff just comes on when he gets cued, right?

So I'm in the green room backstage watching,

waiting to be called and they're like all right Rizzo when Jeff calls you you're heading out there and you know I see me and Jonathan about to do fire go to commercial break and you know production's like Rizzo go out there I said whoa whoa whoa like I do I didn't see myself lose yet they're like just play it off or like play it off I'm like I'm gonna play it off in front of 10 million people watching me live okay so I think if you catch it Jeff is obviously asking me questions and whatnot and I'm trying to be pretty ambiguous I'm like Jeff

I'm super proud no matter win or lose yeah I'm proud of myself and he's like Rizzo have a seat on the jury and I'm like well that sucks so in the moment I was pissed to coin Liz Wilcox on Survivor 46 I was so pissed because dude I just went a year without telling my well my parents knew and my girlfriend but my family and friends back home that I had a shot had a shot at winning Survivor 50 right they didn't know I lost fire and to know that it was all spoiled within like two

seconds kind of sucked but taking the step back you know after it all was set and done it's a pretty iconic moment i mean like no shade to like obviously the finalists and everything but that was the talked about thing of the finale right so like when people talk about the survivor 50 finale it's not going to be about aubrey getting a car or you know jonathan doing the work oh that's the risk god yeah um

it was about Jeff's blunder with the wrist God.

So I'm super grateful.

And if I ever do have the luxury of coming back, I think it would be a funny story with Jeff and I to be like, Jeff, remember that one time you screwed me over, man.

So I think long-term it was very iconic moment that I'm very grateful to be a part of.

to be honest i would have loved to see what happened because jeff i don't know if he stormed out but he went somewhere else i think he was obviously talking to the people that were important and cbs and the higher ups of what to do yeah uh but i'm sure he wasn't the happiest camper but when jeff grabbed me after the fact he said rizzo we're gonna bring you on the commercial break be funny have like have fun with it do whatever yeah i was like

you're giving me the main stage again okay Jeff so you know me and him cracked the joke but I think Jeff was a professional about it we made fun of it obviously I'm a champion of Survivor I love Survivor Jeff could do no wrong in my eyes so we had fun with it it was great uh and it was a great moment for Survivor 50 way to cap off a monumental season unbelievable

I love that, and I think I'm going to make it even better here.

I think the slogan is the name.

R-I-Z-D-O-G, Riz Dog.

You name him Riz Dog.

Rizzo's great, but Riz Dog is even better.

So my blessing is for the Riz Dog.

Yeah.

So I will say growing or before Survivor, what I used to do a lot was I went to a lot of sporting venues and I used to like do a day in the life of.
