This week we interviewed Shirin Oskooi. She left the game in
episode 11 of Survivor Worlds Apart. After years of applying,
Shirin finally realized her dream to be on the show. Unfortunately,
that dream quickly turned dark. She was frequently targeted by most
of her fellow castaways and ostracized for her quirky behaviour and
obsession with the show. Even after being degraded and dehumanized
by several male castaways she fought on and found little moments to
celebrate and enjoy her time on the show. We admired her
perseverance and triumphant spirit.
Listen to this interview to hear more details on that infamous no
swimsuit event, events leading up to Will's hostile outburst, how
she's working to turn her experience into a positive for others and
more!
