Interview: My name is Gary Raske. I have a beautiful wife of 35 years, Marissa, 6 amazing children, and 3 grandchildren, and counting! One of the things I love about my job is being able to meet new people every single day. I've always been a people person, and I think that will help me greatly in this game. I have always been an adventure seeker and I have never shied away from a challenge. I have been watching Survivor since season 1, episode 1. Every Thursday night, and now Wednesday night, the entire family would all gather in front of the TV to watch the latest episode. My favourite players personally were Jake Dowker from Survivor: Yucatan, Doug Johnson from Montserrat, and Nathaniel Roberts in Upolu. Maybe it's just the old guy in me and the fact I hope to go far like they did, but who knows? (Laughs). As I've said, I'm here for the experience and the adventure and I want to see how far I can go. Besides, there's a million dollars on the line if I do happen to win! So there was absolutely no way I could pass up this opportunity. I can't wait to get started. I'm super excited, to say the least!
