Thomas Krottinger, a contestant from 'Survivor' Season 48, revealed that Mike White, creator of 'The White Lotus' and a 'Survivor' alum, inspired him to pursue his reality show ambitions. Krottinger, who holds a prominent role at Sony Music Publishing, expressed his desire to work with White on future seasons of the Emmy-winning series, citing his experience in the music industry. He shared insights on reactions from peers in the music business touching on authenticity and the willingness to take risks in pursuit of passion.
Mike White is the reason...when I was watching everything and I got to Mike, I finally saw myself in a weird way. I was like, 'Oh. Okay. I can go chase a dream and not ruin my entire life.'
It's very interesting because I don't think people in my position are willing to, as Mike White would say, embarrass themselves. So I think there's an element in the business about like, 'What? You are a lunatic.'
Put me on. Let's do this, Mike. I'll work on music. He always hires someone great for music...but maybe we could collab.
You're crazy and I like it. You got balls, kid.
