Summary
For Survivor's 38th season, 12 more Youtubers competed on the islands of Fiji to win Survivor. The tribes were set into Trending and Subscription.

On Trending, there were two different alliances- one with Logan, Lele, and Jake, and one with Ryland, Trisha, and Joanna. The two alliances bonded and distanced themselves from each other. While Lele's alliance was cruel and rude, Joanna's was a lot nicer. On Subscription, everyone worked hard and connected, but Lilly was a target, for she was very talkative and bothersome. At the first challenge, Trending didn't work well together and lost. Lele wanted Joanna to go, while Joanna wanted Logan. A tie occurred, and Trisha told Lele to flip. Lele ended up flipping and sending Logan home. Jake was very mad at her, and formed a bond with Ryland and Trisha. Subscription lost the next challenge, and unanimously voted out Lilly.

When Trending lost the third challenge, Trisha and Ryland told Joanna that Lele would be a better fit to leave, since she was shady and was willing to easily flip. She agreed, and Lele was blindsided. Although the 4 felt strong, they lost again, and the trio of Joanna, Trisha, and Ryland stayed strong together, sending home Jake.

The tribes were happy to know that there was a switch. The new tribes were Social; Liza, Ryland, Trisha, and Danny, and Blade; Joanna, Casey, Jenna, and Rosanna. On Social, Liza did not want to work with Ryland nor Trisha, and kept close to Danny, who rode coattails and didn't have much say in any strategy. Trisha saw this and tried to sway him to join her alliance. On Blade, Joanna looked to be on the bottom. However, Jenna Marbles was a very popular contestant on Subscription, and Casey and Rosanna felt like she needed to go. When they lost, they blindsided Jenna, who left sad.

Once the tribes merged, Casey reconnected with Danny, who left his alliance with Trisha and Ryland. This annoyed Trisha, who made an all girls (and Ryland alliance) with her, Joanna, and Rosanna, who became good friends with her. The group targeted the boys, and tried to get Liza to join. Liza, however, liked to keep her tribemates around, but did want to keep the girls numbers up. She decided to target Ryland, getting the two Subscription boys to go with her. She then lied to Rosanna, telling her that Ryland wants her to go, and promising to take her to the Final Two. Trisha overheard the two talking and called them out at Tribal, and casted a vote to her. It proved ineffective, for the 4 Subscriptions blindsided Ryland 4-2-1.

Joanna and Trisha wanted revenge on Liza. Trisha had a bond with Danny, and convinced him that Liza was a dictator and could instantly get him out. Joanna felt like she needed to make bigger moves, and told Rosanna that Casey had a secret advantage and to vote for him, so the votes wouldn't be tied. Obviously, it was a lie, but it gave Trisha, Danny, and Joanna the majority, blindsiding Liza and Casey, who were voting for Trisha. Down to 5, Trisha wanted to get out Rosanna, while Joanna disagreed with her, and the two got into a big fight. In the end, Trisha got Casey and Danny on her side, and Rosanna was sadly eliminated.

Joanna knew she would be next, for she was on the bottom and no longer aligned with Trisha. She knew Casey was easy to persuade, and promised him a Final Two spot if she voted with him. At Tribal, Trisha and Joanna were forced to do a fire making tiebreaker, and Joanna came out victorious. With 3 people left, Casey won the Final Individual Immunity challenge, and was conflicted between Danny and Casey. In the end, he chose to vote out Danny, for they grew distant and felt like he had a better chance against Joanna.

At the Final Tribal, Casey's theory was proven incorrect, and the jury expressed praise in Joanna's ability to work people and get to the Final Two, while being on the bottom for the majority of the post merge. Casey was berated for not taking his Day 1 alliance member, and his coattail riding. Joanna was then given the title of Sole Survivor, winning 4-1.
