The Traitors: New Blood Exit Interview: First Player Banished

SPOILER WARNING: This audio contains major spoilers for the premiere of The Traitors: New Blood, including the murdered player. 

Madeline Kostopulos, the first player banished from The Traitors: New Blood, joins The Exclusive to break down the accusation that took her out at the first Roundtable and what she actually said about Kim. She reflects on a "genuine blindside" that no one in the castle warned her about, why she led her defense with "she must have misheard me" instead of a flat denial, and the moment she knew the accusation was the "nail in my coffin." Madeline also explains why she refused to "bend the knee" and apologize for something she says she didn't say, what Victor's vote meant to her, and how being read as a six-foot woman in a room shaped the way the group took her. She says the response since the episode aired has given her the justice she didn't get in the castle — and that she'd play again "1,000 times over."
