With the 50th season of Survivor underway, three former Survivor winners tell us how some of the skills they learned in their careers helped them win the show.  There’s game theory, social engineering, and learning how to get along with a group of castaways who have a $1 million incentive to vote you off the island.  Come see Planet Money live on stage!
