}}'''Spencer Reiman Bledsoe'''<ref>https://www.facebook.com/spencer.bledsoe</ref> is a contestant from {{S|28}} and {{S|31}}.

In ''Cagayan'', Spencer repeatedly found himself in the role of underdog. He started on the dysfunctional [[Luzon]] tribe, before gaining temporary control of the game after the tribe switch. His luck soured once again after the merge, after the betrayal of his ally, [[Kass McQuillen]], which eventually left him and his only other strong ally, [[Tasha Fox]], at the bottom. However, [[Tony Vlachos]], a member of the [[Solana Alliance|new majority alliance]], was willing to work with Spencer on three occasions to take out threats in his own alliance, helping to advance Spencer to the final four. After failing to win immunity at that stage, he was unanimously voted out for being the biggest jury threat. He also turned out to be a fan favorite, becoming one of the more popular contestants from his season.

Returning in {{S|31}}, Spencer experienced something of a reversal of fortune after a rough start and narrowly making it to the merge. From that point, he was not only absorbed into the [[Bayon Alliance]], but often found himself in a position of power due to his sub-alliance with [[Kimmi Kappenberg]], [[Jeremy Collins]], and his ''Cagayan'' ally, Tasha. This and his impressive challenge performances took him to the [[Final Tribal Council]]. However, his perceived arrogance and his error in aligning with the extremely popular Jeremy caused him to lose the title of [[Sole Survivor]] to the latter in a unanimous vote.

I want to play the game of ''Survivor'' for the challenge, the competition and the chance to prove myself in such an epic game, under such trying circumstances. Also, the money.

==Survivor==
===Cagayan===
Spencer started out on the [[Luzon]] (dubbed the "Brains") tribe. After the tribe lost the inaugural [[Immunity Challenge]], Spencer joined the majority of the tribe in voting [[David Samson]] out. Following that [[Tribal Council]], Spencer joined an alliance with [[Garrett Adelstein]] and [[Kass McQuillen]] to vote out the weakest of the tribe, [[J'Tia Taylor]]. However, after Luzon's second straight loss, Kass sided with the women, blindsiding Garrett, and leaving Spencer on the outs. When Luzon lost immunity again on Day 11, Spencer was immediately targeted by the women's alliance. However, Spencer pleaded with Kass and [[Tasha Fox]] to keep him in favor of J'Tia, who had cost them victory in almost every challenge. Despite some hesitance to do so, both women decided to keep Spencer for his strength and voted out J'Tia.

On Day 12, a [[tribe switch]] occurred, sending Spencer (along with Tasha and Kass) to the new [[Aparri]] tribe. Here, Spencer found himself in a powerful position due to the distrust between the original [[Solana]] members. At Aparri's only Tribal Council, Spencer voted out [[Alexis Maxwell]] and later made the [[merge]] on Day 18. Although the new [[Aparri Alliance]] entered the merge with six members as opposed to Solana's five, Spencer was concerned over [[Sarah Lacina]]'s loyalty due to her previous affiliation with [[Tony Vlachos]]. However, Sarah stayed loyal to Spencer's alliance and joined him in voting against [[Jefra Bland]]. Unfortunately, Kass decided to join the new [[Solana Alliance]] and voted out Sarah, leaving Spencer in the minority once again.

As his allies continued to be voted out, Spencer was frequently targeted by the Solana Alliance, but he won three individual Immunity Challenges as well as finding a [[Hidden Immunity Idol]] (which he used, but ultimately wasted on Day 28). Additionally, Spencer played on Tony's paranoia, frequently pitting him against his own alliance and resulting in the eliminations of [[LJ McKanas]], Jefra, and [[Trish Hegarty]], allowing him to reach the Final Four. After finally losing immunity to Kass on Day 37, Spencer realized that the season would likely end in a [[Final Two]]. He told this to Tony and attempted to convince him to vote against [[Woo Hwang]], whom Spencer believed would take Kass to the [[Final Tribal Council]] over Tony. He promised Tony that the two would go to the finals together should either of them win the [[Final Immunity Challenge]], if he voted out Woo. In the end though, Tony stuck with Kass and Woo, unanimously voting out Spencer. He became the eighth member of the [[jury]].

At the Final Tribal Council, Spencer criticized Woo for following Tony's every move, comparing Woo to a dog following its master, while praising Tony's game-play. In a similar manner to {{S|22}} castaway [[David Murphy]], Spencer pleaded with the jury to vote for Tony, whom he felt was the more deserving castaway of the million dollars and the title of [[Sole Survivor]]. He cast his vote for Tony, who won in an 8-1 vote.

===Cambodia===
Spencer was one of the twenty castaways chosen by the public to compete on the second chance season, ''Survivor: Cambodia''.

Spencer was initially placed on the [[Ta Keo]] tribe. After they lost the season's first [[Immunity Challenge]], the tribe immediately went to [[Tribal Council]] where Spencer joined his alliance mainly consisting of the new-school players, plus [[Jeff Varner]] and [[Peih-Gee Law]], to blindside [[Vytas Baskauskas]]. However, after Ta Keo lost the second Immunity Challenge, both Spencer and [[Shirin Oskooi]] became the targets for playing too hard thanks to seeds that Varner planted within the rest of the tribemates. Despite their damage control efforts with [[Abi-Maria Gomes]] and [[Woo Hwang]], Spencer and Shirin were forced to vote against each other. Luckily for Spencer, Shirin was voted out and his second chance continued.

On Day 7, a [[tribe switch]] occurred. Spencer and [[Kelly Wiglesworth]] switched to the [[Bayon]] tribe where despite being in a 4-2 minority, he bonded with [[Jeremy Collins]]. Bayon finally lost their first Immunity Challenge on Day 13. Spencer appeared to have made more connections than Kelly, but due to Monica's insistence on making an all girls alliance in the future, Spencer was very much a target still. At Tribal Council, Spencer and Kelly voted against each other, but [[Monica Padilla]]'s plotting backfired as she was blindsided due to Jeremy, [[Kimmi Kappenberg]], and [[Stephen Fishbach]] voting against her.

On Day 14, another tribe switch occurred, with Spencer and Kelly switched back to Ta Keo. Spencer and Kass were placed on the same tribe together for the first time this season, and despite his (few) efforts to mend that fence, it remained awkward between the two. In fact, Kass was very eager to send Spencer home next provided she had the numbers. After they lost the Immunity Challenge, [[Andrew Savage]] planned to blindside Spencer by telling him that [[Ciera Eastin]] was the target. However, Ciera believed that Andrew was too closely aligned with Woo and convinced [[Kass McQuillen]] and Abi-Maria to save Spencer and blindside Woo. Kass alerted Spencer about the plan, but was still of two minds as to who of her Cagayan frenemies to blindside. At Tribal Council, Spencer, Kass, Ciera, and Abi-Maria successfully blindsided Woo, leaving Savage in shock as well.

On Day 17, the tribes [[merge]]d into the [[Orkun]] tribe with 13 players remaining. Spencer, [[Kelley Wentworth]], Abi-Maria, and Kelly were the only original Ta Keo members to make it to the merge, and Spencer was the only original male Ta Keo member remaining. Spencer, along with [[Joe Anglim]] and [[Keith Nale]], were the swing votes between the [[Bayon Alliance]] lead by Savage and Jeremy and the {{dab|Witches Coven|alliance}}. Ultimately they sided with the former, sending Kass to the [[jury]]. Despite a then 9-3 advantage, the next few votes were anything but simple thanks to idol plays and voting blocs leading to a series of blindsides. At the climax was Spencer trying hard to convince Jeremy to vote out Stephen, to no avail as Jeremy protected Stephen with an idol to seal Ciera's fate. Despite Joe finally losing immunity on Day 29 (with Spencer winning his first individual Immunity Challenge despite several close finishes), Spencer took a gamble on keeping Joe in the game to use his vote to finally successfully eliminate the Tocantins finalist.

With 8 players remaining, the contestants met their loved ones. Spencer met his girlfriend, Marcella, and told her he loves her for the first time. After Kelley won the [[Loved Ones Challenge]] and chose Joe, Abi-Maria, Keith, and Kimmi and their loved ones to join her, Spencer, Tasha, and Jeremy made a final three deal after Spencer successfully achieved damage control after the Stephen blindside. They were in agreement that Joe had to go next, with Spencer hoping that he didn't let his only opportunity to take out Joe slip in the previous Tribal Council. Despite rumors of an all girls alliance, this trio maintained control along with Kimmi to vote out Joe and Abi.

Spencer won his second individual Immunity Challenge on Day 35, and his third on Day 36. After winning immunity on Day 36, both he and Tasha noticed Kimmi strategizing with Kelley and Keith, so they believed that Kimmi had flipped, but Jeremy did not believe them. At Tribal Council, Spencer vocally announced that he, Tasha, and Jeremy were sticking together and attempted to threaten the other 3 to flip. This prompted Kelley to play her [[Hidden Immunity Idol]], to which Jeremy replied by playing his as well. The idols both negated the three votes cast against them. In the second vote, Spencer, Jeremy, and Tasha voted for Kimmi, and the vote was tied between Tasha and Kimmi. Spencer, along with the others, told host [[Jeff Probst]] that they would not change their votes, resulting in a deadlock. Jeff tells them that if they cannot come to a decision in one minute, Kimmi and Tasha would become immune, and Keith will be eliminated by default. Jeremy and Spencer still decided not to change their votes, prompting Kelley and Keith to change their votes to Kimmi, thus eliminating her from the game.

On Day 37, the main target, Kelley, won immunity and Keith was voted out at the subsequent Tribal Council. Unbeknownst to Spencer, Jeremy stealthily misdirected Keith into targeting Spencer in case either he or Wentworth possessed an idol. Though Spencer received two votes (the first votes he received since Day 13), the trio successfully voted out Keith. On Day 38, Jeremy defeated Spencer to win the [[Final Immunity Challenge]]. Jeremy reassured Spencer and Tasha that they were safe, and Spencer confronted Kelley about the likelihood she would vote against him that night, which annoyed her. At Tribal Council, Spencer desperately told Jeremy that if he votes him out, he will vote for Kelley to win and make sure she gets enough votes to win. This caused some shock for Kelley and some of the jurors, since she was the clear underdog to survive the vote even without that plea from Spencer. Ultimately, Jeremy honored his alliance with Spencer, and Kelley was unanimously voted out.

At the [[Final Tribal Council]], Andrew criticized Spencer for being arrogant during the final four Tribal Council, and Kimmi called him a bully for threatening Jeremy. Despite these accusations, Spencer tried to do damage control and convince the jury that he had matured and grown as a person while playing a game deserving of victory. Kass referenced his statement from Cagayan that "Kass had a 0% chance of winning the game" and asked him why she should respect him enough to vote for him to win when he showed a lack of respect toward her. Spencer again told Kass that he is not the same person that he was his first season. Despite his best efforts, Spencer ultimately became the co-runner-up of the season along with long time two season ally Tasha, losing to Jeremy in a unanimous 10-0-0 vote.
