Rob Bentele Exit Interview | Episode 1 Australian Survivor: Australia vs The World | Beyond Tribal

Beyond Reality: Reality TV Interviews with Producers, Crew & Talent

Beyond Reality host Hayley Ferguson has spent the past decade producing Australian Survivor, and now in this special series, she’s taking you Beyond Tribal. She’ll be chatting with players from Survivor: Australia vs The World as they leave the game - unpacking their strategy, their downfall and their story beyond the vote.

In this episode of Beyond Tribal, Hayley sits down with Rob Bentele, the first player eliminated from Australian Survivor: Australia v The World.

Rob, the winner of Survivor South Africa: Island of Secrets - came into the game swinging, but his bold gameplay and early moves made him a massive target. In this candid exit interview, Rob opens up about:

✨ How it felt watching his short but explosive Survivor journey back on TV.

✨ Why he underestimated Parvati — and how it cost him.

✨ The moment he knew he had to reveal Parvati’s secret

✨ Why he’s determined to return to Survivor and reclaim his crown.

Plus, Hayley puts Rob through some quick-fire Survivor questions:

If you were sad to see Rob go so early, this chat is your chance to hear the strategy he never got to play out, and why he’s not finished with Survivor just yet.
