I needed someone to talk to
1057
00:55:51,278 --> 00:55:53,350

1058
00:55:53,453 --> 00:55:57,561

reminded me so much of my cat.

And, you know, just holding
that paw of that bunny

Okay, Joe, at this point
in the episode,
1063
00:56:09,089 --> 00:56:12,230
clearly, the lack of progress
with your shelter
1064
00:56:12,334 --> 00:56:13,991
is beginning to weigh on you
a little bit.
1065
00:56:14,094 --> 00:56:16,580
At what point did you realize
that you might've
1066
00:56:16,683 --> 00:56:19,306
made a mistake in terms
of that balancing act--
1067
00:56:19,410 --> 00:56:21,930
you know, taking a little bit
more time to build the shelter
1068
00:56:22,033 --> 00:56:23,690
than maybe you should have?
1069
00:56:23,794 --> 00:56:26,452
- I think as I--my energy level
started to decline,
1070
00:56:26,555 --> 00:56:28,281

1073
00:56:33,182 --> 00:56:34,839

but if you had to do it
all over again,
1075
00:56:37,394 --> 00:56:39,775
is there anything
you would've done differently?
1076
00:56:39,879 --> 00:56:42,364
- You know, if I could shift
a few things around timewise,
1077
00:56:42,468 --> 00:56:45,125
I would've liked to have gotten
my gillnet in the water
1078
00:56:45,229 --> 00:56:47,507
and stockpiled more food.
1079
00:56:47,611 --> 00:56:49,682
But if I could do it
all over again,
1080
00:56:49,785 --> 00:56:51,200
I don't think my decisions
1081

1082
00:56:53,099 --> 00:56:55,929

with your decision to tap out?

I mean, I definitely

but ultimately,
when I decided to leave,
1089
00:57:09,598 --> 00:57:11,082
what played
the biggest part in that
1090
00:57:11,186 --> 00:57:13,464
was not wanting
to fully deplete myself.

to have you on the show.
