Kass Bastarache Exit Interview | Survivor: Australia Vs The World - Episode 7 | Beyond Tribal
In this episode of Beyond Reality: Beyond Tribal, long-time Australian Survivor producer Hayley Ferguson sits down with Kass after her dramatic elimination from Survivor: Australia vs The World.
Kass opens up about one of the most chaotic tribal councils of the season – including why she was so sure the votes were heading towards Lisa, what went wrong, and how her idol play was meant to be both a game-saving move and a big résumé builder.
We chat about:
- Why she fought so hard to keep Lisa in the game
- Building and protecting the international alliance
- Facing off against Parvati in epic endurance challenges
- Playing Survivor in a second language – and why it made the game twice as tough
- The shock of being cast for Australia vs The World fresh off Survivor Québec
- How Aussies play Survivor differently from the rest of the world
Plus, Kass takes on some fun quickfire questions about camp life, her tribe mates and what reality show she’d take on next.
