Weâre joined by none other than Deal or No Deal Island champion (and Survivor Australia legend) David Genat, a.k.a. âThe Golden God.â We talk through his wild final night, what was going through his head in those last moments, his favorite memories from the game, and what lifeâs been like since becoming a multi-millionaire.
He opens up about his relationships with the cast, how fans have reacted to his âfake familyâ storyline, and what his real family thought of it all. We also get into the big celebration party and the superfan bond thatâs formed between him and Parvati â a friendship rooted in admiration, gameplay, and some seriously strategic minds.
And for the Survivor fans: yes, we talk about Boston Rob. David shares how his entire game persona â both on Survivor and now on Deal or No Deal Island â was born from a simple Google search of âParvati and Boston Rob.â That one moment sparked the creation of an iconic player, and now? Heâs not just the best to ever play Survivor in Australia⊠heâs also the best player to ever win Deal or No Deal Island.
Letâs just say, being nice wasnât exactly part of the plan â and it paid off big. This oneâs a must-listen.
