Espana
Name: Raphael Kern, Jr. But everyone just calls me Raph. Age: 32 Job: I'm the guy who lines the ground before you dig. Current Residence: Dayton, OH. But, there's talk about possibly transferring down to Cincinnati. Inspiration in life: The Thirst-Aid Man. He's not afraid to just break into people's walls and yell "OH YEAH!" So I should have that same fiery spirit. Hobbies:  I'm a big fan of the Cincinnati Greys, as well as the East Ohio Tech Marauders. Pet Peeves: Naturists. They're a monstrosity to all mankind, and need to be abolished. Three words to describe you: Overzealous, leadership (or something like that) and curious. What is your luxury item and why?: i brought my daughter's boyfriend's photo. I figured that I needed something to get angry at and take out on the challenges. Why do you think you'll "survive" SURVIVOR?: I'm sorry. Did you say think? I know I will. And here's why. I am a 5 time Dayton city chess champion, a 15 time 5k obstacle course champion, and a 7 time Hands on the Car champion. That's literally outwit, outplay, and outlast. I think I'll be fine putting them together.
