HOBOKEN, NJ — The Hoboken Historical Museum's weekly live interview series has a special episode coming up this Thursday: A walk-and-talk with Mike Turner, the former Hoboken firefighter who competed in the last season of "Survivor."

The episode was postponed from last month because of bad weather.

On Thursday at 7 p.m., you can catch Turner wandering and talking with longtime city worker and friend Stu Chirichella.

This episode of "Hoboken Talks" is called " 'Hoboken Whisperers." The "Whisperers" is a reference to Turner's initial biographical video for the last season of "Survivor" in which he said he talked loudly, in what's known as the "Hoboken Whisper."

"These 'Hoboken Whisperers' have stories to tell about every street corner," the museum said. "Who will they bump into? Anything can happen! Mama Johnson Field, anyone?"

They noted: "Stu has worked at City Hall for 17 years and has lived in only three homes within a downtown “triangle.” He’s the 'best actor you’ve never heard of' and was recently seen in the Netflix comedy-drama 'The Good Cop.' He’s been clean and sober for 30 years and works to help others at the Guardian IOP rehab facility."

Turner was the oldest “Survivor” contestant in season 42, stranded with 17 other castaways in the islands of Fiji. He came in second place.
