Survivor 49 Preseason Interview: Nicole Mazullo

Mike Bloom (@AMikeBloomType) is here to chat to the cast of Survivor 49! Join us to learn a bit about the 18 new castaways to be tested on the islands of Fiji.

Mike Bloom continues the Survivor 49 preseason interview series, sitting down with Nicole Mazullo on her 26th birthday. Nicole, a financial crime consultant from Philadelphia, brings a unique blend of humor and strategy to the game. With a background in hearing loss, she plans to leverage her heightened ability to read body language and lip-read to gain an edge in the competition.

Nicole shares her Survivor fandom, citing the Cagayan season as her hook into the show. She describes herself as a “love child of Boston Rob and Shambo,” combining Rob’s strategic mindset with Shambo’s quirkiness. Nicole’s approach to the game includes:

– Using humor as a disarming tool to connect with others

– Playing up an unassuming persona while strategizing behind the scenes

– Opening any advantage she finds, regardless of potential consequences

– Voting for players who show hustle and grit as a juror

– Leveraging her financial background while downplaying her investigative skills

As Nicole prepares to enter the game, she’s ready to embrace the dramatic moments and fight tooth and nail for the win. Will her combination of charm and strategy be enough to secure the million-dollar prize?
