Survivor 2015: Joe Anglim ‘Day After’ Interview

Survivor 2015’s biggest threat Joe Anglim had his torch snuffed Wednesday night, making him the second member of this season’s jury.

The day after the not-so-surprising vote, Joe sat down for his exit interview to talk about his game. In the end, he thinks he may have played too hard at merge and fought too hard to stay instead of surrendering.

“I want to say that I felt like I played a good game,” Joe says. “I’m proud of myself. I learned a lot about myself. But at the same time, in terms of the objective of this game, I came up short.

Joe, a fan of the show, realized that he was playing with some tough competitors, so he’s just focusing on the experience.

“I wanted this so bad for so long,” Joe says. “I tried to enjoy it, but at the same time you get lost in what’s happening. It’s so much harder than I ever thought. The game is just bigger — bigger than me. This season … it was an honor to play with so many gamers. I felt like everyone was bringing their A-game. It’s a lot easier sitting at home.”

But like most players who don’t win, Joe is just really thrilled he got lucky enough to be apart of Survivor Worlds Apart.

“I’m happy … I wouldn’t change it for the world,” he says. “I’m proud that I made the jury. I did things in this game that I wanted to do my whole life.”
