I screamed when I got this blurb.

I’ve been reading Emily Nussbaum for decades now. Not only is she one of the most insightful tv critics, but she literally wrote the book on reality television with Cue the Sun!

A book quote card promoting Stephen Fishbach's novel Escape!, with a blurb from New Yorker writer Emily Nussbaum: "A thrilling, emotionally affecting deep dive into the perilous world of reality television production, in all its manipulative glory."

I was wondering this too!! At first I thought that Rizo has to be Stephen, but then Jawan has glasses and calls himself a nerd, so I think he is Stephen?

I just pre-ordered Escape! by Stephen Fishbach. I hope the protagonist is not a wimpy, little non-leader.
Congratulations on your book, @stephenfishbach.bsky.social

just watched episode 5 of alien earth, a total flex from Hawley. "oh you want a perfectly-crafted space hulk alien movie but with an even weirder new species?"

truly sublime, everything I want from the franchise.

This could be a good strategy for my 15 year old survivor podcast. “Two rogue podcasters….”

thank you David!! Our editor Jacob Stern is amazing.

David Franklin @david.franklin.dev · 25d

Great gameplay as always and the editing is the best out there. I loved the little context callouts when out-of-play roles and terms were mentioned.

Finally pre-ordered @stephenfishbach.bsky.social 's book. Enough time has passed that I'm finally over him pretending Survivor 48 was a good season. Perhaps even more importantly though is that I was running out of time before he could start doing the same for #Survivor 49!
