Why Jeff Probst Went to Therapy 'Every Day' in the Weeks Before Survivor Began In a candid conversation with PEOPLE, host and executive producer Jeff Probst reveals that he went to therapy "every day" in the weeks leading up to the start of Survivor's latest season. The emotional toll of hosting the hit reality show for over 20 years has taken its share of wear and tear on Probst, who admits that the constant stress and pressure to deliver memorable episodes can be overwhelming at times. "It's a very demanding job," Probst says. "I'm responsible for making sure the show is good, that it's entertaining, that it's well-produced. There's a lot of pressure to perform." And while he has learned to cope with the demands of hosting Survivor over the years, even Probst admits that there are times when he needs outside help to process his emotions and manage his stress. "I think therapy is one of those things where people might not understand how helpful it can be," Probst explains. "I'm a guy who's always been pretty good at compartmentalizing my emotions, but I realized that I was carrying around some emotional baggage that needed to be dealt with." And so, in the weeks leading up to the start of Survivor's latest season, Probst sought out therapy as a way to clear his head and prepare himself for the challenges ahead. "It was every day," he says. "I would go to therapy in the morning, and then I'd come back and work on the show all day. It was a great way to get my thoughts and feelings out, and it really helped me clear my mind before each episode."#Jeff_Probst #Survivor
Philadelphia's Bench Scoring Sensation Vows to Keep Momentum Going The Philadelphia 76ers' bench unit has been a source of inspiration for the team all season, and none more so than Tobias Harris. The veteran forward scored a game-high 24 points in Monday night's dominant 126-94 win over the San Antonio Spurs. With the Sixers riding high on their recent five-game winning streak, Harris is determined to keep the momentum going as they head into a tough stretch of games against some of the league's top teams. "We're not getting ahead of ourselves," Harris said after the game. "We know we've got a lot of work to do, but we're feeling good about where we are right now." Harris' performance was just one highlight in an impressive all-around effort from the 76ers' bench unit, which outscored the Spurs' reserves by a whopping 64-23. The Sixers' second unit has been a key factor in their recent success, and Harris is thrilled to be a part of it. "It's fun being able to come off the bench and make an impact," he said. "We're all feeding off each other right now, and it's showing on the court." With the Sixers set to face stiff competition from teams like the Milwaukee Bucks and Boston Celtics in the coming weeks, Harris knows that his unit will need to continue to produce if they want to keep their winning streak alive. "We know we can't take anyone lightly," he said. "We've got to stay focused and keep pushing forward." Harris' teammates are just as impressed with his play as he is himself. "Tobias has been unbelievable all season," 76ers guard Shake Milton said. "He's a difference-maker, no question about it." The Sixers will look to build on their winning streak when they host the Los Angeles Clippers on Friday night.#Milwaukee_Bucks #Boston_Celtics #San_Antonio_Spurs #Los_Angeles_Clippers #Philadelphia_76ers #Tobias_Harris #Shake_Milton
Jeff Probst Spends His Downtime Watching Real-Life Police Interrogation Videos As the host of the hit reality show "Survivor," Jeff Probst is no stranger to competition and drama. But in his free time, he turns to a different kind of thriller: real-life police interrogation videos. In an interview with Business Insider, Probst revealed that watching actual police interrogations has become one of his favorite pastimes when he's not busy hosting the show or working on other projects. "I love true crime and I love the art of interviewing," he explained. "There's something fascinating about watching skilled detectives try to get to the truth." Probst, who has been hosting "Survivor" since 2002, said that he stumbled upon police interrogation videos while researching a different project. He was hooked from the start. "I found myself mesmerized by the way these detectives would slowly build a case against the suspect," he recalled. "It's like watching a masterclass in interviewing." While some might find the subject matter morbid or unsettling, Probst insists that his fascination with police interrogations stems from his respect for the skill and dedication of law enforcement officials. "I think what I find most compelling is the way these detectives use psychology and persuasion to get the truth out of people," he said. Probst's love of true crime extends beyond police interrogation videos, however. He also enjoys reading books about famous cases and listening to podcasts that explore unsolved murders and mysteries. "There's something about the human condition that fascinates me," he mused. "I think we're all drawn to stories about good vs. evil." Despite his love of true crime, Probst insisted that he doesn't let it consume him. He said that watching police interrogation videos is more of a...#Jeff_Probst #Survivor #Police_Interrogation_Videos #True_Crime #Law_Enforcement_Officials

Predators Acquire Fifth-Round Pick in 2027 NHL Draft From Colorado The Nashville Predators have acquired a fifth-round pick in the 2027 NHL Draft from the Colorado Avalanche, it was announced today. The Predators sent forward Jeremy Lauzon to Colorado in exchange for the draft selection. Lauzon, a 25-year-old defenseman, has played parts of four seasons with the Predators, accumulating 15 points (4g-11a) and 74 penalty minutes. He has also appeared in 14 playoff games with Nashville, recording two assists. "We are grateful to Colorado for this opportunity," said Predators President of Hockey Operations/General Manager David Poile. "Jeremy is a good player who has given us everything we've asked of him, but at times he's struggled to find consistent playing time. We believe this move will give him the chance to continue his development and potentially play a bigger role with Colorado." The acquisition of the fifth-round pick in 2027 gives Nashville an additional asset for its rebuild efforts. The Predators have been busy retooling their roster over the past year, making several trades aimed at shedding salary and acquiring draft picks. "We're excited to add another piece to our organizational puzzle," Poile added. "We believe this move will help us in our long-term goals of building a competitive team that can make a deep playoff run."#Colorado_Avalanche #Nashville_Predators #NHL_Draft #Jeremy_Lauzon #David_Poile
Scrubs Fan's Outrage Over J.D. and Elliot's Revival Reveal A dedicated Scrubs fan has been left reeling after the show's creator, Bill Lawrence, announced plans to revive the beloved series with a new storyline featuring original characters J.D. (Zach Braff) and Elliot (Sarah Chalke). The news sent shockwaves through social media, prompting one particularly passionate fan to take to Twitter and express their disdain for the move. "I'm just so done with these reboots and revivals," the disgruntled viewer tweeted. "Can't we just leave Scrubs alone? It's perfect just the way it is." The post quickly went viral, garnering thousands of likes, retweets, and replies from fellow fans who shared their own sentiments. Lawrence, however, was not one to shy away from controversy. In a response that has since been deleted (but screenshots are still making the rounds online), he addressed the fan's concerns head-on. "I understand why you might be upset," he wrote. "But trust me when I say that this isn't just about rehashing old times for nostalgia's sake. We've got an incredible new storyline that honors the spirit of Scrubs while still pushing the characters forward in meaningful ways." The creator went on to explain that the revival, which is set to premiere later this year, will focus on J.D.'s journey as a hospital administrator and Elliot's struggles as a single mother trying to balance her personal and professional life. "It's not about going back to the old days; it's about exploring new themes and challenges for our characters," Lawrence emphasized. While some fans may still be skeptical, many others are already expressing their excitement for the revival. With production set to begin in the coming months, it remains to be seen whether Scrubs can recapture the magic that made it such a beloved hit in the ...#Scrubs #Bill_Lawrence #Zach_Braff #J_D #Sarah_Chalk #Elliot
