I like how Rudy paused for a second before saying "not in a homosexual way" lol

RIP to a true legend and reality tv pioneer!

"Me and Richard got to be pretty good friends, not in a homosexual way that's for sure" *camera cuts to Rudy rubbing lotion on Richard's back* Gets me every time 😂

The thing I love about Rudy is that while he may have held onto the trappings of homophobia in some his comments (the result of his age and what he was used to and all that), but in truth you could tell that he had no real feelings of homophobia. He didn't have the slightest ill will toward Richard, and he was happy to form a real friendship with him. The most unlikely of duos, and yet they also made perfect sense

How is saying "not in a homosexual way" homophobia? It's just another way to say he's not gay.

@@exiaR2x78 But it was also the accepted term. We've had lots of terms that were considered politically correct that we'd be shocked at now. My grandmother grew up in an era where it was "colored people" and that was the correct way to address them. So when it became "African-American" she'd been taught "colored people" so long that she just didn't make the switch. She wasn't racist, she was just taught a different way.

Rudy wasn’t just in the navy. Rudy was revered in the seal teams. At one point, he was the senior enlisted advisor to SOCOM (just a few of his accolades). So you can imagine the kind of badass Rudy was to be putting sun tan lotion on Rich on national TV knowing his friends are all career Navy Seals. LOL.

A lot of “social commentary” from the earliest seasons has aged like fine milk, but this is really very touching.

This is Survivor. The strategy is only fun when you know the people and how they interact with each other

What a legend. R.I.P. Rudy.

"Deal with that" he ended homophobia right there with these words, honestly it amazes me how an old person like him can be so understanding despite his background ❤, a true icon RIP

Rest In Peace Rudy. God Bless you!

Rudy is old enough to be Bob Crowley’s dad. That’s crazy to me.

Rest in tranquility Rudy

i find it hard to believe richard is one of the nicest guys rudy has ever met

I love how he had to make sure that was perfectly clear. Rip Rudy.

I think Rudy was one of Richard's greatest allies in the game and he entered the game pretty homophobic. I feel like Rudy and Richard created poetic justice in the first season of survivor.

I always viewed Rudy as ignorant instead of homophobic. With that being said, if this type of language were used today I think it would be a different story.

Is "Survivor" as good TODAY as it was back THEN?

Depends on what your idea of what good was. When it first started there was more of a sociology aspect to it. Now it's much more physical leaning despite the game being less physical in nature. It honestly feels the challenges are just an afterthought now.
