JAY BYARS:It’s crazy to think 10 years have gone by, kinda makes me feel old.
As soon as I came back, I went straight back to modeling.
What is your proudest moment ever from playingSurvivor?
Ahh man, that’s tough, but a few highlights come to mind.
It’s a long process just to get to that point.
It was also cool to have my family in N.Y.C.
That was special for me to have them share in the experience.
What is your biggest regret from yourSurvivorexperience?
You really gonna make me relive this?
Those damn chicken wings!
How many times Jeff cussed Tarzan out for saying “the game is afoot” lol.
You’re being filmed 24 hours a day, there’s so much that happens that never makes it.
How do you feel about the edit you got on the show?
I think I got a fair edit.
Plus, I was young.
I would do things a lot different knowing what I know now.
What was it like coming back to regular society after being out there?
Was there culture shock or an adjustment coming back?
It was an incredible experience.
I always tell people it was like being dropped off in Jurassic Park with a bunch of knuckleheads.
It was a blast.
Whom do you still talk, text, or email with the most from your season?
I didn’t really get to know or hit it off with Jonas until our days in Ponderosa.
That dude is a character, he’s so fun to be around.
I admire and respect him so much, he’s like a long-distance big bro to me.
He was even in my wedding.
Outside of the norm, we usually talk about real estate or cryptocurrency ides.
Her family basically adopted me.
And, every once in a while, Troyzan.
Yes, probablyRedemption Island.
Who’s one player from anotherSurvivorseason you wish you could have played with or against and why?
Probably Boston Rob the dude’s aSurvivorlegend.
If I could choose from my season, I’d say Troyzan.
That guys vs. girls start killed us, way too much testosterone for one hut.
If you could make one change to any aspect ofSurvivor, what would it be and why?
I think if you played the game with the same people 10 times you’d have 10 different winners.
Finally, would you play again if asked?
I’d hop the first plane out.
