Talking to T-Bird: Jan Gentry

The time has come for the return of “Talking with T-Bird”. Each episode, Rob Cesternino (@robcesternino) and Survivor: Africait is Teresa “T-Bird” Cooper (@tbirdcooper) will catch up with a former Survivor player and talk about anything and answer questions from listeners. In the fifty-second episode of “Talking with T-Bird”, Rob and T-Bird’s guest is 3rd on Survivor: Thailand, John Gentry.

Jan’s Survivor’s career began with great responsibility: as an elder woman, she was in charge of choosing the members of the Chuay Ghan tribe. Although she was criticized for choosing the castaways who were older and perceived to be weaker, it was perhaps this early game decision that caused her to last in the game until Day 38. A goofy and quirky character, Jan both mystified and entertained his tribe. Perhaps most memorable is the pet cemetery she established on Chuay Ghan Beach, best told in Mario Lanza’s Funny 115 article. Jan’s non-threatening demeanor protected her until the Final Immunity Challenge, where season winner Brian Heidik decided to send her to the judging panel because he felt she was well-liked and had a better chance against Clay Jordan. T-Bird and Rob are thrilled to reunite with Jan 20 years after her debut in Survivor.
