“I start telling my friends, ‘Stop voting for me!’” he added.

Jason went on to say that at one point he even told the producers he was considering leaving the show, but ultimately decided to stick it out and continue competing.

“Having made it all the way to the very end, made it to the buzzer, I look back and laugh and think, ‘Well, maybe if I’d actually given a s–t!’” he said. “So, I would do it all over again if I could, and I would try really hard.”

Also in interview, Jason talked about his sexuality, being closeted in the 90s, and how he’s never actually been in love.
