I don't even watch Survivor that often, but this guy is seriously a good conversationalist. Loved the chemistry of this podcast

[@Joojoobeans]

Julien at the ripe of age 103 at his deathbed "My life story brought to you by..." *breathes heavy and whispers* "Me undies..."

[@garrettc.8314]

*wheezing* “guys micro-modal fabric-“

[@angeelaylay6695]

*coughing* "three times softer than cotton"

[@tiffanyleraa9975]

“Julien on his deathbed be like”

[@abbyhernandez7938]

Jenna and Julien NEED to be on survivor!!!

[@Sammiecheeks16]

I would watch immediately

[@Marvolo]

YES PLEASE Blood vs Water?!

[@SierraBee_x]

I want this to happen because I want them to call Jeff Dad the whole time

[@katiekedavra1206]

Abby Hernandez omg yes!!!

[@aCompendium]

Jenna's smile this whole podcast... she is LIVING.

[@Stardollcedes]

I love how julien is all interested into the logistics of the shooting, audio etc. of the show, compared to Jenna just being interested in the social aspects of the show. LOVE the juxtaposition of their interests it always makes for amazing interviews!!

[@AlexKP93]

As a survivor superfan and a j&j podcast superfan this episode was just perfect. It was everything I needed.

[@AlexKP93]

Also, who isn't in love with Cochran??

[@ashleydevine4784]

I could've watched 3 hours of this 😀

[@katiekedavra1206]

Alex I was looking through their podcast videos and saw this and almost squealed. Learning they are Survivor fans made me love them even more than I already do!

[@babyl3]

Can you please do a podcast about your relationship/relationship advice? I feel like you two have such unique circumstances and you're able to work through career and diet obstacles together. I think it would help many of us struggling with relationships to hear how you deal with issues. ❤️

[@marrine3558]

I second this!

[@cocochanz6838]

3rd this

[@kenmyvn]

4th this. I am vegan and my boyfriend eats things like meat and dairy and it can be hard sometimes.

[@babyl3]

+kendallmarie yeah not necessarily just the food aspect cuz I know they've talked about that but just relationship advice and overcoming obstacles

[@AmyOrdman]

Have Jeff on!!

[@stephmcginnis8172]

AMY ILY

[@Olivia27x]

Amyyyyyyyy 💚💚💚💙💙❤️❤️

[@kennedyann]

Amy Ordman sadly I don't think Jeff would be allowed to say anything that isn't public knowledge due to some sort of contract

[@katiekedavra1206]

Amy Ordman omg yes!!!

[@ogmfcg]

Steph McGinnis p

[@allisonselman9175]

I've never watched survivor but I like this because it was something all three of you were so passionate about.

[@ashwales5960]

I love the comment sections on the podcasts, they're so much more positive :)

[@babyl3]

As I have branched out and watched other channels, I notice that this channel and often the other Jenna/Julien channels get a lot more positivity than others. I hopped on Techsmartt based on last week's podcast and Keaton was so right, almost every video they just rip him a new one!

[@sentientconfetti]

i love coming back to this episode, they seem to have such a great repertoire within the three of them.. it makes me miss the weekly uploads, getting excited to wake up to episodes. but at least i can come back to this one. much love dink game, stay safe out there.

[@andrewherzog1858]

I must say, I know what Survivor is, but I've never watched it and I actually really liked this podcast. Not bad, not bad at all.

[@koalarenegade2171]

same

[@bellaburgess3767]

If Julien went on survivor her would suffer from caffeine withdraw

[@ashleyward2351]

And we would miss a lot of vlogs.

[@TheNopeness]

he'd have to eat meat too so he'd probably die of starvation. You can't be that picky in the wild.

[@petezahut2432]

Yellow Gatorade withdrawal

[@katesmith9749]

Cochran: "I wouldn't go on the show again" He appears on the show season 34... which was filmed LESS THAN A MONTH LATER than this podcast..

[@anthonymendez1997]

Kate Smith I think he meant to compete again. He was on Game Changers as an objective third party.

[@mysticalturtle9889]

Anthony Mendez well he was on the all winners season so...

[@Blake-zh1zd]

Mystical Turtle no he wasn’t

[@AshleeBackhus]

YALL HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH THIS PODCAST MEANS TO ME. Cochran was EVERYTHING to me when he played Survivor..both times

[@bgonne]

"is someone gonna fall in love with me while watching this?" *raises both hands*

[@angelhair61]

Been a survivor fan since I was a kid, like I scream at the tv and everything, im living for this podcast it answered so many questions I had, thank you

[@gwynhueni2632]

speaking of game shows Jenna and julien NEED to be on the amazing race

[@gwynhueni2632]

I think that y'all would be so amazing like honestly y'all would kill it

[@JordanWickRacing]

OMG! Get Mametown on the podcast!!

[@EdonPiperku]

YESSSSS

[@JordanWickRacing]

Edon Piperku like a podcast & a YDAD. so perfect

[@izzyseraphim2313]

PLEASE

[@EdonPiperku]

+Jords Wick that would be perfect!!

[@jenny27555]

yes, mames!

[@JoshFlorii]

Julian looks amazing with that new hair. Killin it dude!

[@abbyhernandez7938]

I don't even watch survivor but I loved this podcast!

[@Sammiecheeks16]

I have to give you guys credit you guys did a GREAT job on this podcast. Originally I started watching it solely as a loyal fan of you guys as I've never watched survivor even in the beginning when I dated someone who was obsessed so I figured I'd chalk it up as an hour and a half of material to listen to while cleaning but this podcast legit made me want to start watching survivor like from season 1 to now..great content and love the long podcasts!

[@FuzzyDereck]

This was such a great podcast! All the questions were perfect & you guys had the best possible Survivor on. Cochran is my absolute favorite contestant ever. Thank you for this!!!

[@Octobris]

I still think Julien would be absolutely INCREDIBLE on Survivor.

[@dededeedles]

Ever since you guys mentioned Russell tweeting at you, I flipped out thinking you might eventually have Cochran on the show. He's my absolute favorite! I found him on OkCupid one time (real or fake) as someone in my area. I got so excited and nervous that I swiped away then I never found his profile again. Haha. He seems like such a chill guy. My all-time favorite podcast!

[@taylorlove21]

this is the best podcast ever, literally my two favorite things of life, jenna & julien, and survivor!! this was so amazing, just to hear Cochran's stories and experiences. he is my all time favorite player! My question that I always wonder about is how in depth the challenges are explained to the players, because when i watch the show jeff explains the challenge in two seconds and i feel like if i was out there i would literally have no idea what to do! this was so great, i love you guys!!

[@jessicalivdahl8070]

John has such a great personality, this has to be one of my favorite guest episodes!

[@SoGWENLYN]

YES I'M SO HAPPY YOU GUYS FINALLY TALKED ABOUT SURVIVOR. We Survivor superfans salute you.

[@Sam-ep4ru]

Ugh I miss them so muuuuch. This is like my all time fav episode. It was really like my two worlds colliding in the best way. This is the first time I’ve come back to watch this after about 3-4 years and it feelings like visiting old friends :(❤️ I love you guys so so much. If you see this, just know you are truly loved and I appreciate you more than you’ll ever know. Thank you for keeping these up and allowing us to watch them even 8 years later. I’m so happy for you guys and I hope you guys live happily ever after in cozy blankets and smothered with doggie love❤️ thank you for being such a huge part of my life!

[@jonsnow-targaryen2071]

Come back for season 50!

[@amytreakle7604]

This has got to be one of my favorite podcasts yet. Thank y'all so much for all your hard work and dedication and sharing these moments with us. Y'all rule!

[@XnikkicoleXX]

Growing up I used to watch survivor with my dad but I eventually stopped. Now all I want to do is find every season I've missed and catch up haha

[@damienjohn]

John is such a nice guy, but am I the only one that thinks he is also damn attractive?

[@eagerturtle4791]

My two favourite podcasters talking about my favourite show! Awesome :)

[@abracadavra]

As a fan of Survivor, Cochran, Jenna and Julien, this was absolutely wonderful for me. I loved every second of it. Thanks guys, keep up the good work!

[@mayayallop-ryan5549]

Love this interview! There isnt enough cochran content online so im so happy yall did this

[@TsKust]

I kinda like the ones without guests more. But I still love all of your podcasts :D

[@theoddlifeofme]

I can die happy now! I am so happy you guys asked good questions, I am always so curious about the behind the scenes stuff but I can never find any answers because interviewers always ask the same questions. You should have Cochran on again, or another Survivor player! EEEEP I am so happy I've been watching Survivor since I was 5 years old! (I'm 20 now btdubs)

[@sophieclarkin8914]

This is one of my favorite podcasts of Jenna & Julien’s. It’s such an interesting POV, from COCHRAN nonetheless. I love the behind the scene sort of things. I’m definitely going to be watching Survivor in a new view, I love it.

[@larryjohnson7331]

If anyone wants to get into survivor I suggest seasons 6 and 7 for the earlier era and season 25 or 32 for the modern era. I think the best newbies season is 28 but it's a little too complex for first time viewers.

[@kiaraprabhu7080]

I just watched 28 on netflix, it's crazy dude

[@trixiewutang]

Holy crap. I can’t believe I got linked this video off of Reddit on a question about glasses and contacts. What an absolute GEM. Love survivor. Love Jenna and Julien. Amazing ❤

[@makaylacomelli6534]

Boston Rob was my favourite player that's ever been on the show he was on the show a few years back

[@rachellay7333]

This is like the 5th time i've listened to this podcast bc i love cochran and survivor

[@Sammiecheeks16]

I love how Jenna looks at him! They clearly love each other so much but the podcast seems like a big passion for Julien and when they have guests you can tell Jenna is so proud of his interviewing skills and how well he does

[@likeamandistressed953]

As *SOON* I saw the title, I KNEW this would be one of, if not THEE, longest J&J podcast. LOL! I should buckle up for this adventure.

[@RollerKoster]

9:54 "That's why I don't think there will be an all winners season, at least for a long time."

[@stinkymayo7010]

I am one of the people who fell in love with John Cochran by watching this.

[@cocochanz6838]

i like it better when you guys incorporate the ad during the podcast for those funny transition

[@elizabethbanks9174]

I just have to say how happy I am that Dink Fam is a thing and that I wasn't the only one dinking for all these weeks.

[@hbd1106]

Best. Podcast. Ever. I've been binge watching survivor for the last month, and this is the best surprise ever 😍

[@caitlinhayes196]

This is one of my favorite podcasts! Regular survivor podcasts would be amazing

[@sophieclarkin8914]

i LOVE survivor. i’ve been watching it with my family ever since i was little. cochran is one of my favorite players, i still can’t believe you guys got cochran on the podcast. i love this collision of worlds.

[@sophieclarkin8914]

also even a year later i’m STILL salty Tai didn’t win

[@gracejohns4180]

One of my fav podcasts you guys have done! I am a HUGE survivor fan, it was awesome you guys interviewing him, good job!

[@beepboop449]

this podcast made me want to watch survivor and now its like a new favorite!!!!!! started with season 26 and now i'm gonna watch thEM ALLLLL

[@scmeagol5955]

u know what would be awesome? idk if u guys watch drag race, but it would be so cool to have one of the queens (whether they on or lost) on the podcast.

[@av1_libidine]

i can remember a jenna video from AGES ago where she mentioned meeting jujubee, so she at least knows of drag race ahah

[@ferretmarxism]

Yes Jenna this please^^^ Thorgy Thor!

[@tiffanywolf1954]

alaska!!!!!!

[@regisatlas]

OMG no way it would ever happen but imagine bianca on the podcast! jenna said she loves ru paul in some video I think

[@greatestsimmer516]

bob the drag queen!! or acid betty

[@ki113rqueeen]

My parents are superfans of Survivor. I never really watched but still pumped for this podcast.

[@meganthomas1859]

I don't watch survivor but this guy is fucking hilarious and I would love for you guys to have him on again! I loved this podcast!

[@starrd6792]

i don’t usually like watching the guest podcasts because the guest seem awkward like there’s tension or something but this guy seemed so natural, i don’t even watch survivor but i loved this podcast, and will give the show a go

[@CampingCats90]

I loved this podcast so fun to have such an awesome guest! Keep up the amazing podcasts Jenna and Julien!!!

[@sandray001]

Came here for Cochran, leaving as Jenna and Julien fans! Love the chemistry between the three of you. Please invite Cochran again :)

[@taegituna]

This is great promotion for survivor. Makes me want to watch it, but I don't know what season to start with.

[@weaslepower]

25, 28, and 32 are all really good modern seasons without returning players. 28 and 25 are on Amazon Prime, too. 28 has really fast pace gameplay, so it could be a little confusing for a first season.

[@_baert]

Poor timing though because the current season just ended.

[@larryjohnson7331]

If you want to start towards the beginning I'd say season 6 or 7.

[@weaslepower]

+Larry Johnson 7 is one of my favorites

[@taegituna]

+HeyIt'sBaert there's more than one way to watch past episodes. Already on episode 5 of season 32. ;) thanks for the suggestions!

[@rachelebbett4213]

As a survivor fan since basically the beginning this was amazing. Definitely one of my favourite podcasts so far. I loved hearing about what goes on behind the scenes and Cochran's perspective of the whole experience!

[@JenH1536]

OH MY GOD. I love him so much!! Favorite Survivor player of all time!!

[@kaitcarmichael2100]

I have been waiting for this since you posted the picture on Instagram!! Amazing to see Cochran on your podcast!! Fantastic job with this podcast, it was by far my favorite!

[@georgiannrusin8283]

The casting of survivor sounds remarkably like the beginning of the hunger games; the week before they enter the arena.

[@brianagabriellekranich3261]

I really enjoyed this, great questions, and Cochran's so precise and animated in every interview he's done, I love it! Season 34- Game Changers (an all returnee cast, list of castaways on Inside Survivor) is going to be realllllly interesting! You three should do a weekly recap show when it airs!

[@ponderosa9116]

Jenna & Julien for Survivor: Blood vs Water 3!!!!

[@rachelfeldbloom3899]

I've been hoping for a Survivor episode. But a Survivor episode with Cochran? Oh.hell.yes. Thanks guys!!!

[@Marvolo]

I really can't wait for you two to have Russell Hantz on xD But Cochran is one of my favorite players to ever win, so this is glorious.

[@janefinkel7616]

Honestly they should do a podcast with green t-shirts on and be floating heads and arms I feel like that a Jenna thing to do

[@jasmineruth9879]

My heart smiles when I saw this. I LOVE SURVIVOR

[@jasmineruth9879]

Smiled*

[@Rachdogg7]

PLEASE DO MORE SURVIVOR PODCASTS

[@abbyl2521]

I bet they were both so excited about him being on the podcast!!Really excited to watch this!

[@RosieJ95]

BEST podcast so far, seriously fun to listen to, I've watched survivor since I was a kid and so this was just the coolest collab ever. Thanks so much guys!

[@Carmen777ism]

YAAAAAAASSSSSS!!!! Survivor is my favorite show of all time and Cochran was one of my favorite winners. He played his winning season masterfully. So excited!!!!!!

[@234iloveyoumore]

this made me so happy. Cochran was my favourite since the beginning of his first season!

[@ellen8775]

This has been my favourite podcast from you guys 😂👍🏼

[@TheDailyDoseofSarahO]

Been watching survivor since the first season! Love love love this show haha.

[@devintrevor8142]

Omg this makes me so happy. Two of my favorite things!

[@whitneyball]

I loved this podcast so much. You guys asked all the questions that my sister and I wanted to know - from going to the bathroom, to wear they hide the mics. I just had listened to Tyler Oakley's Amazing Race podcast a few days ago and I love all the behind the scenes scoop. I love all your other podcasts, but if you get reality show people on like this again I would be very excited. Thanks for all the great content, Jenna and Julien!!

[@Dark7427]

This podcast is so Good.

[@musicluver9154]

I love all of your guys' podcasts, but this definitely has made top 5; thanks for having him on!

[@kariannimal8644]

Forgot it was Monday today because of the long weekend. Happy Birthday to me!!

[@evry1sequal]

That was AMAZING ! Please have him come and review the new season's first episode !!! It would be so interesting to hear how he thinks someone could have done it differently to benefit themselves !!!

[@CorinneStinton]

This was an amazing episode!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR DOING THIS! Loved all the secrets and behind the scenes questions

[@catalina9844]

this was terrific! Cochrane made me love the show again.

[@beverleywithane]

Can we get another Survivor guest on the podcast in honour of the upcoming Season 40? Do it to us, J&J!!

[@sophiamadden3035]

Best podcast ever! I have seen every episode of Survivor and am a huge Jenna and Julien fan so Survivor/Cochran meets KZbin/Jenna Julien Podcast.... so entertained... so many questions answered!

[@RubyEmbers26]

It's nice to see a guest who is actually really eager to talk. He seemed really excited to tell stories and talk about the show and experiences. It's always a fuckshow with a shy guest and this guy had charisma and strong personality. 10/10 IGN

[@SailorVenusJupiter]

I JUST started watching Survivor Turkey this week and had so many questions about the show, this podcast came in at a perfect time, thank you J&J!

[@SailorVenusJupiter]

I have a question actually: do the girls shave on the show? Their armpits/legs/eyebrows look so on fleek I'm guessing that they do? Or do they get a preemptive laser treatment before they commit to the show?

[@brandioctober9236]

I had next to no interest of survivor... And after watching this I think I'm gonna go find myself some seasons!!

[@tristanicholson4958]

This is such a genuinely interesting and informative podcast. I feel like I got to see a more fun and light hearted side to Cochran which wasn't seen in his Survivor seasons. He is a guest I would be stoked to see on another podcast!

[@nurilee16]

YOOOOOOO WTHH YOU GOT COCHRAN OMG GUYS. YOU GUYS. YOU GUYS ARE LIKE INFINITELY AMAZING. this is so cool :')

[@Axel_Shaun]

Easily one of my favorite podcasts, with my favorite winner, talking about my favorite season of my favorite show

[@BriHoaby]

Best podcast ever. I've been a fan of Survivor and Jenna since the beginning, so to see my two loves come together in such a way warms my heart. ONTO THE NEXT SEASON! ...snapchat your viewing party with Cochran please and thanks...

[@lepaulinos]

I dont watch survivor, havent seen any episode, but I have to watch 1h 34 min of podcast

[@ashleyward2351]

You can't fit in that last 17 seconds?

[@lepaulinos]

+Ashley Ward naa, its too much :D

[@Hey1234612]

After I watched the podcast I binge watched his whole season. No regrets, but it is 4am lmao

[@nicolehales5406]

I"M DYING! I LOVE COCHRAN OHHHH! Best group of people in one room ever!!!

[@bunnyrabbit443]

This was awesome, you asked him some great questions that I have wondered myself. I'm obviously really late to watching this but I loved every minute. I could have listened to you guys talk about survivor all day 😊

[@binbunni]

Just the mental picture of John chasing his flip flop in a hot tub is enough to make me smile for eternity
