00:02 - Hi, we're casting team.
00:06 We're back.
00:07 We're back again.
00:08 Year eight, I believe.
00:09 I feel like this is like different
00:11 because this is like we broke up,
00:12 like we were together and broke up for a little bit.
00:13 And I'm about to beg you to take me back,
00:16 which is not far off from what's about to happen
00:19 here at On Thing.
00:20 The idea that I got to talk to Jeff and Caitlin
00:23 and Jesse and Hudson and Matthew and Wagon
00:25 and in my living room,
00:26 and the team that makes the show happen.
00:28 I got to interview and talk with them all.
00:29 It's perplexing to me.
00:30 I have to pinch myself to remind myself that it happened,
00:33 but we're not done yet.
00:34 I need to finish this.
00:36 It wasn't just, I didn't just want to walk
00:38 from the application process.
00:39 I want to get on the island.
00:40 Year that you guys gave me of just saying,
00:42 hey, you're on the bench for a little bit longer
00:44 was the best thing you could have done for me.
00:46 'Cause it really made me reevaluate
00:47 not only the skills that I need to play and win Survivor,
00:50 but also how badly I want it.
00:53 I didn't think I could want it more badly than I do now.
00:55 It feels illegal to want something this bad.
00:57 I am, you've never seen anybody balance better in your life.
01:00 I bought a balance board from Amazon
01:03 and I stand on that thing with some ping pong balls
01:05 on a plate like it's nobody's fucking business.
01:07 I wake up every morning, I do 45 pushups, 45 sit-ups.
01:11 I am manifesting that number 45.
01:13 And it, you know, not for anything.
01:14 It's a good number.
01:15 45 is a good number.
01:16 It's a nice Roman numeral.
01:17 It's nice and brief.
01:19 Got a good couple of characters in there.
01:21 It's nice.
01:22 I love Survivor more than anything.
01:23 And I love all of you for not only putting on the show
01:26 that has changed my life and made it so much better,
01:28 but also giving me the opportunity
01:30 to be a part of your process.
01:31 But it's not done yet.
01:32 The chapter of Brandon Donovan on Survivor,
01:35 we just started, we didn't end,
01:36 and I'm ready to be your season 45 winner.
