Here's the link to the weekly interview Jeff does with Dalton Ross at EW.com
**********************
https://ew.com/tv/2019/10/17/survivor-jeff-probst-island-of-the-idols-episode-4/
And here is the teaser from the bottom of that interview:
Dalton Ross: Finally, it looks like it’s time for a tribe swap next week. What can you tell us?
Jeff Probst: I love it when I know an answer to one of your queries. Okay, let me explain! So, a tribe swap is a phrase that indicates players on all tribes will have to draw new buffs and potentially swap tribes. It’s designed to mix up the game by forcing you to form new relationships and test the strength of existing alliances. It doesn’t always happen that you actually swap tribes. Sometimes you end up on the same tribe. Crazy! But technically this moment is still referred to as a swap, a.k.a. “switch.”
It’s something we first did in our third season in Africa, and it was met with a lot of controversy. Oh boy, fans hated it. Thought it was soooooooo unfair. Fortunately, Survivor doesn’t have controversial twists anymore, other than when I don’t wear a blue shirt. Other than that, our audience adores everything we do, and they have for many years now! I can’t think of the last time someone complained about a creative idea. Anyway, so yes, from 3,000 feet that is the working and current definition of a Survivor tribe swap. But since I still have a few characters left to use, I could give you a bit of a tease for next week: Our biggest reward of the season and another killer Tribal Council!

Is he saying that even though there is a swap this week the tribes actually stay the same because I don't remember that ever happening before.

No what I took from what he said is that some people stay on the same tribe as had happen each time they do this.

I'm thinking Jeff was being a little snarky...he can't remember the last time anybody complained about a creative idea...RIGHT!

Thanks Granny … just a different life now, a different house, daughter and grandson with me instead of a husband, new medical issues to tend to, and time schedule is a bit shifted...but better late than never … right?
Okay....the Press Release pics are up in thumbnail size again, so I grabbed the 4 that tell us a little something.
Reward Challenge
Reward Challenge where the "Drop Your Buff" action takes place
Immunity Challenge
Another closer look at Immunity Challenge
There are no action shots of the Immunity Challenge … obviously they don't want us to see the new tribe make-ups.
