1
00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:17,640
Seriously, I tested this ship before
we started and do do Do Do Do

2
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:21,440
Do Do Do Do. I'm trying
really hard not to see challenge. There

3
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:39,840
we go. Sounds good to me. It's perfect. He everybody, welcome

4
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:44,119
to challenge. The podcast is all
about the challenge. Wasn't that the intro

5
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:51,119
for the old versions? Arlen,
get off your phone? I literally said

6
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:54,679
it was the wrong intro. I
know, but I'm trying to think.

7
00:00:54,799 --> 00:00:58,000
Wasn't it the one that Wasn't that
the one that was used for the previous

8
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:03,359
uh All Star seasons. I don't
know. Maybe I'm just trying to I

9
00:01:03,399 --> 00:01:06,640
heard you say that. I'm just
trying to remember which seasons we used it

10
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:08,280
for. It's I can tell my
kids, Carling, you get what you

11
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,640
get. You don't throw a fit. That's the song. You know,

12
00:01:11,719 --> 00:01:15,599
it's a fucking song. Just deal
with it. Well the way to start.

13
00:01:15,239 --> 00:01:23,599
Everybody on Brian and Germantown Hill says
big sweet and just got down my

14
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:29,519
owner yard, Carling, San Diego, it still work, Zachie Bananas.

15
00:01:30,159 --> 00:01:34,280
Don't act like we're all excited.
Hey, everybody ahead, every challengepot dot

16
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,359
com on the Facebook. You can
also try a patchraunge whull time about that.

17
00:01:38,519 --> 00:01:42,920
Yeah, I'm excited episodes. What's
what's what's this week? What's somebody?

18
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,480
Somebody tell me what happened this week? It's Carlin's Yeah, that's my

19
00:01:47,519 --> 00:01:55,000
week, all right, Jesus,
look at it, Carling. It's happening

20
00:01:55,079 --> 00:01:59,480
right now. They're walking through a
field looking like I don't even look at

21
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,040
him, Dan and up there with
the red shoes on. I can only

22
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:09,199
see like the bottom leg. That's
all. Yeah, TJ gives what the

23
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:14,080
last week on? Nothing exciting.
We all know what happened in the last

24
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,599
two weeks, and then we immediately
get to it literally picks up from exactly

25
00:02:17,599 --> 00:02:21,439
where they left off last week.
I like it. I like it when

26
00:02:21,439 --> 00:02:23,479
they do that. Yeah, And
there was like other than the last week

27
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:28,080
on, there was no like lead
up. They didn't redo any of the

28
00:02:28,159 --> 00:02:32,120
things. It just started in with
well, Derek, you're going home goodbye?

29
00:02:34,159 --> 00:02:38,479
Oh okay. Then that was fast. I'll show my cards here,

30
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:42,439
guys. Goode yea. I'll show
my cards here, guys, Derek.

31
00:02:42,479 --> 00:02:46,199
I picked Derek for this week in
the in the I can we call it?

32
00:02:46,719 --> 00:02:47,919
Yeah? We I don't think we're
actually going to be able to do

33
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:53,039
the draft scores for the Public League
because they don't come out until tomorrow.

34
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:54,439
I don't think. Well, I
know I did not move up in the

35
00:02:54,479 --> 00:03:00,800
ranks because I picked numbers one and
two who went home today. I picked

36
00:03:00,879 --> 00:03:06,039
Leroy, I picked Laurel, and
I picked Kara. Yes, haven't come

37
00:03:06,039 --> 00:03:10,719
out yet. Here's the thing I
I picked because I did mine last night.

38
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:15,439
I picked Kara, Laurel and Steve, and about five minutes later,

39
00:03:15,479 --> 00:03:23,439
I changed out Steve for Nicole.
Oh, car, you said, Laurel,

40
00:03:23,479 --> 00:03:27,879
Karra and Leroy. Yep, yeah, same fuck you, guys.

41
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,400
I did Derek, Leroy and Kara. Yeah, Laurel, Kara, Nicole.

42
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:35,120
Oh you know I can I probably
guess right now. I have a

43
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,080
feeling whatever Stove is going to be
winning this because he picked Kara, Laurel

44
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:42,360
and Steve. Yeah, all right, well he's the winner. You couldn't

45
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,120
do any better than that. Yep. But we'll talk about it later.

46
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:50,520
Uh oh, but yeah, so
Derek, it's eliminated. And then TJ

47
00:03:50,759 --> 00:03:57,039
tells us this little quote unquote twist
of everybody. Stars are like you can

48
00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,039
give if you get eliminated, you
can give your star to another player and

49
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:04,719
it will give them an advantage in
Day two, which actually hated this.

50
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:13,080
I'm wrong, I picked Kara and
Nicole. Okay, Okay, Yeah,

51
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:18,720
I fucking hated this. This little
twist, Well, Derek gives his star

52
00:04:18,879 --> 00:04:25,319
to Laurel and this is not the
first time that happens, and give some

53
00:04:25,639 --> 00:04:29,279
speech about how she helped him win, which like if he's only basing it

54
00:04:29,319 --> 00:04:33,000
on yesterday, Like, I don't
understand how Laurel has and this will come

55
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,800
into play later on. I don't
understand how Laurel has made all of these

56
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:42,439
friends when she is so obviously a
fucking asshole. Yeah. I thought that

57
00:04:42,519 --> 00:04:45,360
was very weird too, But let
me so Carly. And you didn't like

58
00:04:45,399 --> 00:04:47,600
the twist of the stars being advantages, But is that just because Laurel is

59
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:51,959
the recipient or just in general you
don't like I just didn't like it.

60
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:59,759
I felt like I overall I didn't
like this final because this final was just

61
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:05,120
a much. This final was the
Challenge fifteen years ago. It was a

62
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:09,399
bunch of carnival games, and I
fucking hated that. My favorite part about

63
00:05:09,439 --> 00:05:15,279
the finals is it's dirty and gritty
and everybody's exhausted and you're eating weird things.

64
00:05:15,319 --> 00:05:20,560
And you're doing ridiculous stuff and you're
like, it's it's hard, Like

65
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:24,920
this is ship that we could all
do. Yeah, it drove me.

66
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:28,000
TJ said it a few times,
like anybody can win this final, but

67
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,000
I don't. I don't want to
final anyone can win. I want a

68
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:36,240
really fucking hard final the whole thing. By the end of it, not

69
00:05:36,319 --> 00:05:41,519
everybody could win it because we'll get
there. Yeah. Yeah, And I

70
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:45,279
expected would get kind of the old
style carnival games just because, like as

71
00:05:45,319 --> 00:05:47,680
Tim said, TJ was saying all
season, anyone could win, so you

72
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,040
got, you know, you gotta
think, like, okay, if that's

73
00:05:50,079 --> 00:05:54,720
true, they got to figure out
something that like Veronica could you know,

74
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:59,519
legitimately beat Laurel at. I mean, I agree, like because it keeps

75
00:05:59,519 --> 00:06:02,920
getting hard, gone that this is
a game that anyone can win. But

76
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:06,560
it just like going back to what
was it last week when we were talking

77
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:10,199
maybe two weeks ago, when we
were talking about whether the All Star seasons

78
00:06:10,199 --> 00:06:13,600
count in the grand scheme of things, and I was originally going with,

79
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,120
yes, they do, but that
was the last few seasons, the finals

80
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:21,600
have been these big run races,
like similar to finals for the regular game.

81
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:28,160
This. This final alone made me
think, no, these really don't

82
00:06:28,199 --> 00:06:30,519
count like the normal ones, because
a normal final would not be this fucking

83
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:34,360
easy. If this is something that
I could do, this final is too

84
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:41,160
easy. Yeah, I totally agree
with that. Take this. This is

85
00:06:41,199 --> 00:06:43,920
a cheap ass, week ass final, one of the weakest that we've seen

86
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,639
in a very long time. I
did not like that it was mostly luck.

87
00:06:46,959 --> 00:06:50,120
Yeah, this was like the Invasion
of the of the Champions final where

88
00:06:50,199 --> 00:06:55,759
they had to string beads all night
and jump off or hold on to it

89
00:06:55,959 --> 00:07:00,279
a bar being held over the water
by a speed boat and a bunch of

90
00:07:00,319 --> 00:07:02,800
stupid ship there too, sleep on
a bed that had snakes in a pit

91
00:07:02,959 --> 00:07:09,519
like yeah, yeah, I was
not thrilled with this all right, So

92
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:12,720
back to the game. Uh so, let me go straight into an advantage

93
00:07:12,759 --> 00:07:16,639
checkpoint. Uh the advantage. The
checkpoint is just there are ten peppers of

94
00:07:16,759 --> 00:07:21,360
varying hotnesses hung on a string,
and you have to eat all of the

95
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:27,680
peppers. First person eat all the
peppers wins, and Nicole surprisingly has a

96
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,720
decent strategy of moving all of the
peppers down because they're just strung on there.

97
00:07:31,079 --> 00:07:34,279
She can slide them all down with
her mouth and eat all of them

98
00:07:34,319 --> 00:07:39,000
at the same time, rather than
trying to go after each one individually.

99
00:07:42,079 --> 00:07:46,199
Dumb. This is super dumb.
Dumb. Oh, let's string up peppers

100
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:50,439
and how people eat them off the
string. Yeah, to explain more,

101
00:07:51,199 --> 00:07:59,839
we are in a final. This
was a final. I'm pounding on my

102
00:08:00,319 --> 00:08:03,480
is fired up, fired up,
pounding on my desk. My dog's get

103
00:08:03,879 --> 00:08:07,399
all worried. It's all right,
yeah, I mean it was. This

104
00:08:07,639 --> 00:08:11,600
was This was eating challenge light,
just like all of the eliminations have been

105
00:08:11,639 --> 00:08:16,120
eliminations light. Yeah, if you're
gonna have an eating challenge, have a

106
00:08:16,199 --> 00:08:20,560
fucking eating challenge. Like a few
seasons ago they had people eat three Carolina

107
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:26,079
or however many Carolina reapers before they
did anything. Like the peppers that were

108
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:31,319
up there, they had like ajlapino
and a tie chili, And these are

109
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,080
peppers that people eat on a normal
basis. I don't think they had ghost

110
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:37,080
pepper on there, even though Laurel
wanted to say that they did. Yeah,

111
00:08:37,159 --> 00:08:39,639
nobody looked like they were too bad
a pain there. No. I

112
00:08:39,639 --> 00:08:43,080
think they might have had a hobanarow, but like, none of these peppers

113
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:48,200
were all that exciting. Yeah,
no, I I agree. I don't

114
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:50,720
like any of these advantage checkpoints.
I think they're pointless and stupid. I

115
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:54,720
don't like any games with no steaks. It's like everybody's eating these peppers for

116
00:08:54,799 --> 00:08:58,120
advantage that we don't know about.
Nobody's out or anything. I don't know.

117
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:01,440
To me, it's like, this
is not final Ship. We should

118
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:07,039
be getting rid of people every time
at all of these checkpoints. Take the

119
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,159
peppers, rub them in your eyes, and then you have to drive a

120
00:09:09,159 --> 00:09:13,480
golf cart through an obstacle course.
Like that's the final that's final ship.

121
00:09:13,879 --> 00:09:18,159
Yeah, like when they ate the
chili peppers. Was at All Stars one

122
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:22,799
or two where Drell is like puking
on the trail, I'm all for that.

123
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:24,919
I like they had to eat the
I think those were Carolina Reapers.

124
00:09:24,919 --> 00:09:30,519
Just what they They've been very common
on their faces faces. Yeah, where

125
00:09:30,639 --> 00:09:33,120
like they have to eat the hot
pepper and then they have to run for

126
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,720
five miles, Like do that?
That's what we want to see. Yeah,

127
00:09:35,759 --> 00:09:41,120
we heard vomiting, but there wasn't
any like filming of vomiting. Yeah,

128
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,159
oh I want to see that too, you know, I gotta see

129
00:09:43,159 --> 00:09:48,159
that. You Oh, I got
to see that peke us. Jamie points

130
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,919
out, Jamie lots of people pointing
stuff out in the chat room, but

131
00:09:50,399 --> 00:09:54,759
Jamie points out, I just don't
enjoy watching them eat peppers. No,

132
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:58,759
it was boring as fuck. Yeah, yeah, it's fun when they look

133
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,879
miserable, Like I it's still picture
Durell with like it's it's it's streaming at

134
00:10:01,879 --> 00:10:05,480
his face and stuff. It's great. Oh, I mean the one that

135
00:10:05,519 --> 00:10:09,200
we all go to is Cet with
the horn of blood. Oh yeah,

136
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:13,000
it's dripping face. It will forever
live in my memory of just yeah.

137
00:10:13,159 --> 00:10:16,480
Oh he smiles. It's between his
teeth and ship he's got blood and oh

138
00:10:16,519 --> 00:10:22,600
it's great. Yeah. I mean
I understand we're on All Stars and they

139
00:10:22,639 --> 00:10:26,600
gotta they gotta ease it up a
little bit, but I mean they don't.

140
00:10:26,799 --> 00:10:30,279
I mean, they don't have to
ease up the eating challenge, eating

141
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:35,200
challenges and something to kill somebody.
Yeah, it just it was bullshit to

142
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:39,679
me. This entire final is the
eating Pepper's Challenge, so don't work.

143
00:10:39,799 --> 00:10:43,159
Yeah, I mean, it's it's
all carnival games. It's all carnival games.

144
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,279
It's all things that the four of
us could do, Like this is

145
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:52,600
insane Jamie says, they ate onions
on USA. I don't remember them doing

146
00:10:52,600 --> 00:11:03,759
that. Whatever, try to go
in my mouth, all right. So

147
00:11:03,799 --> 00:11:09,399
then they go to an elimination checkpoint, and Nicole has the advantage. It's

148
00:11:09,519 --> 00:11:15,000
yet again another carnival game where they
have a platform on marionette strings and they

149
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,000
have to put a cup on the
platform and tip the cup into their mouth

150
00:11:18,519 --> 00:11:20,679
and get as much water as they
can out of their cup and then spit

151
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,200
it into a tube and the first
of the last person to reach the line

152
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:30,559
on their tube goes homepy and Nicole's
advantage is the line on her tube is

153
00:11:30,639 --> 00:11:33,639
much farther down, so it's much
easier for her to fill it. And

154
00:11:33,759 --> 00:11:37,919
still Laurel finishes within like thirty seconds. She just had like the technique and

155
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,919
the approach. You saw her like
get it up to her mouth so slowly.

156
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:46,000
I mean she just and then she
just held it there and one,

157
00:11:46,519 --> 00:11:50,720
two, three, like it was
this looked like cake for her. Everybody

158
00:11:50,759 --> 00:11:54,080
else was spilling water which was tinged
red, so it looked like kool aid.

159
00:11:54,879 --> 00:11:58,639
Laurel is just like shit like this. Laurel's just good at this.

160
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,840
She's like the ct Johnny and like
this. Yeah, she just picks it

161
00:12:03,879 --> 00:12:07,120
apart. She just knows how to
coordinate and balance that. She just is

162
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:15,799
good at randomly the stupid carnival games. Yeah, yeah it was. It

163
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,559
was very boring to watch for the
most part, Like it was funny watching

164
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:20,559
them spill stuff all over each other, but there was no real action in

165
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:24,360
this entire thing. The only time
that I actually got exciting was the last

166
00:12:24,399 --> 00:12:31,519
like thirty seconds of this whole thing
when not ct uh, Leroy and Veronica

167
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:35,120
are going head to head because of
their last two and ultimately Veronica wins,

168
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:39,799
but Leroy looks like he is like
within inches. Yeah, and Leroy is

169
00:12:39,799 --> 00:12:43,720
the anti Johnny. Leroy is not
good at this. He's not good at

170
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:48,039
like figuring this. He's not good
to just sort of like run time figured

171
00:12:48,039 --> 00:12:50,720
it out with no prep, just
fucking figured it out. He can't.

172
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:54,799
He can't. Sort of love Leroy, but I truly think he could come

173
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:56,919
back to this for fifty years and
he will never win. I agree,

174
00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:01,639
he just doesn't have He's not well
rounded and for something, there's too much

175
00:13:01,639 --> 00:13:05,440
that he's not so good at.
Yeah, it's unfortunate. I mean I

176
00:13:05,879 --> 00:13:13,240
enjoyed how he I enjoyed that he
played this game more like a like a

177
00:13:13,399 --> 00:13:18,840
Johnny or a West where he didn't
put someone like them before himself. Yeah,

178
00:13:18,919 --> 00:13:22,960
but he's just Yeah, Leroy is
just never gonna win. Yeah.

179
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,559
I have faith in Lera. He
could win, even a game like this.

180
00:13:26,639 --> 00:13:28,960
That's carnival games. It's I mean, we've seen it. He's just

181
00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:33,559
not good at them. It's too
bad. I want him to be.

182
00:13:33,639 --> 00:13:37,279
I want him to win so bad, but but it's just not him.

183
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,639
You know. As much as I
love her, the thing I always go

184
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:41,960
back to when I'm like, can
this person win? Is I go back

185
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:46,200
and I think Paula Walnuts has won
two seasons. Anyone could win at least

186
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:50,320
one. Okay, one of those
seasons she was paired with Evelyn and the

187
00:13:50,399 --> 00:13:56,559
other season she was paired with Emily
Schrom. Okay, So if massive massive

188
00:13:56,720 --> 00:14:01,720
caveat So if Leroy came back on
a partner season with partner, you know,

189
00:14:01,759 --> 00:14:03,200
with one of those two girls with
Kara with Laurel, you don't think

190
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,840
they can have gone there? I
do. If I think if LeRoy's got

191
00:14:05,879 --> 00:14:09,080
a strong partner, I think he
can get there. Yeah, I don't

192
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,440
think he's going to slow people down
too much. But he's not necessarily a

193
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:15,440
big help either. No. I
mean the season that he plays second with

194
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:22,799
what was it, Nannie, No, his partner, Teresa was Johnny's and

195
00:14:24,759 --> 00:14:31,960
Nia Teresa's Wes's partner. Yeah,
yep. Anyway, yeah that season,

196
00:14:31,039 --> 00:14:35,960
Like he did really well in that
final because he had a really strong player

197
00:14:35,039 --> 00:14:41,320
or really strong female partner. I
think if if Leroy had a really strong

198
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:43,639
partner, then yeah, he has
a fighting chance. But if he's on

199
00:14:43,639 --> 00:14:46,639
his own, never gonna happen.
If Paula's on her own, also never

200
00:14:46,679 --> 00:14:50,799
gonna happen. Like there's no way
in hell she would have ever won those

201
00:14:50,799 --> 00:14:56,080
finals without Evelyn and Emily Shrom.
Yeah. I think Paula is sort of

202
00:14:56,120 --> 00:15:00,840
like the female Leroy, Like she's
not terrible, she can keep up,

203
00:15:00,919 --> 00:15:03,759
she's got some things she's good at, but she's not a great, well

204
00:15:03,799 --> 00:15:09,279
rounded competitor herself. Yeah, though
she's a fucking mess, or she was.

205
00:15:09,399 --> 00:15:13,639
I think Lero was never really a
fucking mess. No, Lero is.

206
00:15:13,679 --> 00:15:16,600
No, Lera is wonderful, And
I think I think Paula's got her

207
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:20,320
ship together now. Yeah, she
feels like she's in a good spot.

208
00:15:20,399 --> 00:15:24,759
She randomly followed me like ten years
ago on Twitter out of nowhere. I

209
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:26,879
was like on a skype called a
bunch of friends and stunning. I got

210
00:15:26,879 --> 00:15:31,440
the dentification like because I even follow
her at the time. I'm like,

211
00:15:31,039 --> 00:15:35,480
guys, Paula just followed me.
I think she still follows me to this

212
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:39,879
day. Pretty sure. Nice celebrity
over there, I know. Right,

213
00:15:43,879 --> 00:15:48,639
So goes home, Yeah, Lero
goes home. Uh. He gives his

214
00:15:48,759 --> 00:15:52,759
star to Steve, which I think
legit. He like, he gives the

215
00:15:52,799 --> 00:15:58,519
explanation of Steve's been into the elimination
three different times. He like he deserves

216
00:15:58,559 --> 00:16:03,799
us. I love because I was
team Steve all day. Yeah. I

217
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:07,000
love this too because I can just
tell Lero was very sincere and he did.

218
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:08,240
Yeah. He was just like,
Steve, You've had the hardest path.

219
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,840
You deserve a little something so here, you don't. I just love

220
00:16:11,879 --> 00:16:19,159
everything that Leroy does. Yeah,
I agree. I also think that Steve,

221
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:26,159
out of everybody up there, Steve
deserved the star. Yeah. Yeah.

222
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:33,440
So then the next one is an
advantage checkpoint uh called hose ball.

223
00:16:33,759 --> 00:16:38,120
It's played in pears in a triangle
shaped arena where they're all sprang a soccer

224
00:16:38,159 --> 00:16:42,759
ball with fire hoses, and the
first team to two goals wins. The

225
00:16:42,799 --> 00:16:48,039
pears are Ace and Kara obviously,
Steve and Baronica, and Nicole and Laurel

226
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:52,919
obviously. And Nicole seems to think
that she and Steve's voice that seems to

227
00:16:52,919 --> 00:16:57,480
think that she's going to have an
advantage just because she's a firefighter. This

228
00:16:57,559 --> 00:17:02,840
has absolutely nothing to do with me. Work in the hose, Like some

229
00:17:02,879 --> 00:17:06,039
practice work in the hose probably comes
in handy, don't you think, I

230
00:17:06,039 --> 00:17:11,599
mean maybe, But she's still fucked
up. Yeah. Steve does a really

231
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:15,200
good job of pissing Laurel and Nicole
the FuG off, and he voices that

232
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:18,480
that's his intention, is to piss
them off so much they can't do it.

233
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:26,079
Yeah. He pisses off Nicole enough
that Nicole in the second round ends

234
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:32,119
up spraying him in the face with
a fire hose from like a foot away.

235
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:38,000
Yeah, which is Yeah, she
has some issues, like some serious

236
00:17:38,039 --> 00:17:42,759
issues. This season killed Nicole for
me, Like I never liked Nicole,

237
00:17:42,839 --> 00:17:45,640
but I just thought she was harmless
or whatever. Yeah, I hate her,

238
00:17:45,759 --> 00:17:48,839
ridiculous, I hate her. I
hate her. Now. Hey,

239
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,599
the scene's on in the background right
now, Oh, there it is.

240
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:57,200
Yeah. Uh. The only redeeming
part of this entire game, other than

241
00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:02,599
the fact that Kara and Ace winn
with two goals almost immediately, uh,

242
00:18:03,079 --> 00:18:11,440
was our TV correspondent, mister TJ
Lavender. I dressed up. No,

243
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:17,200
no, he dressed up, but
he had rinalds. This was not like

244
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:21,359
a game show like situation. It
didn't make any sense. It didn't.

245
00:18:21,559 --> 00:18:23,920
It didn't. It makes sense,
but I have seen a lot of people

246
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:29,319
on social media calling for TJ Lavin
to be fired and replaced with TJ Lavender

247
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:33,079
going forward. I mean, we
didn't really get a whole lot out of

248
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:37,960
it. All he did was say
goal a few times, a couple of

249
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:41,839
weird like I'm here to ride ride
bmxs and blow a blow horn or something.

250
00:18:42,599 --> 00:18:47,000
Yeah, God put me a good
put TJ Lavin on earth to do

251
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:52,039
two things, ride bikes and blow
air horns for yeah weird. It didn't

252
00:18:52,079 --> 00:18:55,359
really make any sense. But I
kind of liked this. I like see,

253
00:18:55,519 --> 00:18:59,240
I mean, it was funny,
but I I think it would have

254
00:18:59,279 --> 00:19:00,720
been better to have him like,
I don't know, Yeah, it wasn't

255
00:19:00,759 --> 00:19:07,799
really necessary. Maybe TJ was just
a pack of productions like this final blows

256
00:19:07,839 --> 00:19:10,720
ass and they're like, do you
want up on some funny costumes? He's

257
00:19:10,759 --> 00:19:14,559
like, yeah, sure, why
the hell not? Yeah, at least

258
00:19:14,559 --> 00:19:18,119
it'd be fun. At least then
these all Stars ones, they seem very

259
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:22,920
laid back. Like the other thing
when Veronica asked for milk and TJ made

260
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:25,839
some weird thing about milk. He's
just goofing around. He's just having a

261
00:19:25,839 --> 00:19:30,240
good time. Jbie says that TJ
Lavender made him uncomfortable or made them uncomfortable.

262
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:33,039
You can make comments pop up on
the street on the st Yeah I

263
00:19:33,079 --> 00:19:36,880
saw that. I saw that was
interesting. Did you do something wolfing?

264
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:40,519
Yeah? I click on it and
it says show on stream and oh,

265
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:52,160
oh crazy interesting. Yeah so yeah, Car and Ace Winley advantage. Uh

266
00:19:52,279 --> 00:19:57,039
so. The next checkpoint is a
double elimination checkpoint called Bluff Night, which

267
00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:03,240
was dumb. It was a dumb, dumb name. They are playing this

268
00:20:03,319 --> 00:20:08,160
game as individuals. There are three
different rooms. Each room has a different

269
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:12,200
game in it, and each game
can be played twice. So and then

270
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:17,039
once that game has been played twice, the room closes and isn't available for

271
00:20:17,079 --> 00:20:22,359
anybody else. The first person gets
to go pick what game they want to

272
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:25,640
do. Do the game as fast
as they possibly can, come back to

273
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,400
the rest of them and pick the
next person to go, and so on

274
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:32,440
and so forth. So it's a
real big advantage to go at the beginning

275
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:37,160
because you get to pick your game, and it's a real bad disadvantage to

276
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:41,599
be the last person to go because
you are stuck with whatever is left.

277
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:45,839
You can also give info when you
get back about the games, whether it's

278
00:20:45,839 --> 00:20:52,440
truthful or not, to anyone you
want, which didn't really have anything to

279
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:55,920
do with anything. I think that's
I think they were expecting people to come

280
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:59,200
back and like really start lying about
what was in the rooms. But whatever,

281
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:03,079
it didn't really happen. I will
say that it was kind of interesting

282
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:07,440
to watch Nicole like freak out,
like Clara, why don't you tell me

283
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:11,559
nothing? Calra, Calra, why
don't you tell me? It's like you've

284
00:21:11,559 --> 00:21:15,640
been trying to get her eliminated a
little fucking sea. Yeah. Yeah,

285
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,400
she was driving me nuts dying this
one too. She looked like she was

286
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:22,599
driving Ace nuts too, Yeah she
was. She kept asking him as well.

287
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,240
Well. So Steve in the chat
room says that, like this was

288
00:21:26,279 --> 00:21:29,759
the overnight portion. It didn't make
that clear, but the first person to

289
00:21:29,799 --> 00:21:32,480
go, I guess that was Kara
when at eight thirty at night, and

290
00:21:32,519 --> 00:21:37,400
the last person to go when at
two am. So what is that six

291
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,480
out? Almost six hours those people
were sitting there. They were saying that

292
00:21:40,519 --> 00:21:42,359
they had everybody had about an hour, which I mean, I don't know

293
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:52,480
if that was a production ploy to
kind of thank you, that's that word.

294
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:56,519
The fact that it only took five
minutes to do most of these less

295
00:21:56,519 --> 00:21:59,440
than five minutes to do most of
these things. Yeah, but the Laurel

296
00:21:59,559 --> 00:22:03,599
came back Vernica's like that, like
that went really fast. Yeah, So

297
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:04,920
I don't I don't know if they
just kind of let her come back quickly

298
00:22:06,039 --> 00:22:10,640
or not. So the three rooms
are nailed it, which there are a

299
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:15,000
bunch of seven inch hammers in a
stump and you have to nail three of

300
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,640
these hammers down as quickly as you
can. Marble Blast, which is a

301
00:22:18,759 --> 00:22:22,400
ramp. When they first walked into
the room for marble Blast, I couldn't

302
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:26,559
tell what it was a ramp at
first. It looked like a flat surface.

303
00:22:26,279 --> 00:22:29,680
So you have to go up to
the top of this ramp and roll

304
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:33,480
a ball down. But there are
obstacles throughout the ramp that you have to

305
00:22:33,799 --> 00:22:36,279
try and miss and it needs to
make it through the hole at the end

306
00:22:36,279 --> 00:22:40,599
of the course. And then the
last one is firearm, which is a

307
00:22:40,799 --> 00:22:47,599
stupid fucking name for a bunch of
different reasons, where they set your glove

308
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:51,640
on fire. You then use your
glove to set four stars on fire that

309
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:56,079
are hanging from the ceiling, and
then you have to throw kerosene soaked balls

310
00:22:56,119 --> 00:23:00,960
at stars and try to set some
of those on fire. This is clearly

311
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,359
the fastest one, right, we
all knew that right away. This is

312
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,960
the Yeah, the fastest and the
coolest to do. Yeah. I think

313
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:11,680
they were thinking people would be scared, but this is not a scary thing

314
00:23:11,799 --> 00:23:14,079
you were geah. I think I
think it was gonna They were thinking it

315
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:15,519
was gonna be like, oh,
look, you're setting yourself on fire,

316
00:23:15,599 --> 00:23:19,960
like no, you're not gonna do
this, and it's safe like yeah,

317
00:23:21,079 --> 00:23:22,920
And asan far, they didn't look
like they gave any ships about being on

318
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:26,839
fire, like it was fine.
No. So yeah, car goes first.

319
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,880
She chooses firearm. Ace goes next. He also she tells him you

320
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,640
should do this because then we can
close out of room, So he also

321
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:37,519
chooses firearm. He makes the point
of saying that he is a carpenter and

322
00:23:37,559 --> 00:23:42,839
he knows how difficult it is to
hammer seven inch nails into wood. Steve

323
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:49,519
goes third and he picks nailed it
so he's he takes up one of the

324
00:23:49,519 --> 00:23:53,200
spots there. This is when Nicole
is freaking out trying to get Ace to

325
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:57,400
tell her what was happening. You
make sure to put his gloves on while

326
00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:03,279
it's just hammer and I want to
damage these hands. Yeah, and these

327
00:24:03,319 --> 00:24:08,359
guys have terrible hammering techniques. Oh
my god. Laurel's especially was fucking awful.

328
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,559
You can tell people that have never
used the hammer. I don't think

329
00:24:11,559 --> 00:24:15,480
Steve ever has either. Like it's
all in the elbow, Like what are

330
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:18,880
you doing? That's doing it,
that'sat her in the wrist. Yeah,

331
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:23,279
it's really funny watching them do it. It's always been entertaining in seasons where

332
00:24:23,319 --> 00:24:27,559
they've had sledgehammers, and you can
tell people who have no idea how to

333
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,359
use a sledgehammer because they're like choked
up all the way at the top,

334
00:24:30,559 --> 00:24:33,640
just hitting it as quickly as they
can. Then you have someone like Jordan

335
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:38,079
come in who only has one hand
and like full swing and it goes down

336
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:45,200
like six inches immediately, like I
love those ones. Uh. Veronica goes

337
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:49,319
fourth. She chooses Marble Blast.
Nicole also chooses Marble Blast, and then

338
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:55,240
Laurel is last, and she gets
nailed it and she's fucking pissed that she's

339
00:24:55,400 --> 00:25:00,640
last, and because she's just fucking
Laurel, she slams those nails and the

340
00:25:00,839 --> 00:25:03,440
like bad technique, but she got
it down. I bet she beat Steve.

341
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:07,599
I bet she was faster than Steve. Yeah, I bet I bet

342
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:11,119
she was probably faster than Steve.
I still have a feeling it probably took

343
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:15,640
her a decent amount of time and
it was just the fact that you had

344
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:22,400
to roll a ball into a thing
like the the Veronica and Nicole get eliminated

345
00:25:22,279 --> 00:25:27,079
because Marble Blast was an awful game, and they both give their stars to

346
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:33,119
Laurel. Nicole is no surprise.
Uh. Veronica, though, says that

347
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:36,359
she's giving it to her because this
is the person that she likes the most

348
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:44,720
and wants to win the most.
What again, since when has Laurel made

349
00:25:44,759 --> 00:25:48,079
all of these friendships in the house. She's such a fucking asshole. How

350
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:52,480
is that so apparent to everybody outside
of the camera, but not in the

351
00:25:52,519 --> 00:25:56,480
house. Like I don't I just
I don't understand. There are things that

352
00:25:56,519 --> 00:26:00,440
are happening in the house that they
clearly have not shown us, and it

353
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,480
doesn't make any sense to me.
I know last weekend when I was at

354
00:26:03,519 --> 00:26:08,759
Talingsmania, both Derek and Ryan talked
about how after being out of the house

355
00:26:08,799 --> 00:26:12,400
now kind of seeing stuff that the
some of the stuff that went down seeing

356
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:17,759
you know, the way people lacked
post show, they're out on Laurel.

357
00:26:17,759 --> 00:26:18,960
But they were like, no,
like we loved her in the house.

358
00:26:19,039 --> 00:26:22,039
Everyone loved her in the house,
like Kara and her gang did not like

359
00:26:22,079 --> 00:26:26,559
her the rest of the house,
like we were all team Laurel. How

360
00:26:26,799 --> 00:26:32,599
Like, after watching this woman for
so many years on this show, never

361
00:26:32,799 --> 00:26:37,559
changing who she is, she has
always been an asshole. Every season without

362
00:26:37,599 --> 00:26:41,720
fail, she has been an asshole. Even the seasons were like the one

363
00:26:41,799 --> 00:26:45,160
season where she was actually Kara's friend, she has always been an asshole.

364
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:51,279
They think it's because the whole house
was kind of unified against Cara this season,

365
00:26:51,319 --> 00:26:53,400
and so yeah, she's been an
asshole to the person that everyone else

366
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:57,079
disliked. So it's like, you
know, the enemy of my enemy is

367
00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:02,799
my friend. Yeah, I just
I just don't. I just don't get

368
00:27:02,839 --> 00:27:04,359
it. It don't get it because
I don't think I could go into a

369
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:10,680
house after knowing who this person is, who both of these people are for

370
00:27:10,759 --> 00:27:15,680
however many years, and be like, oh, well, whatever, I'm

371
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,960
gonna be here. I just it. It just does not make sense to

372
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:22,519
me. And then to also just
keep stacking stars on the biggest threat to

373
00:27:22,599 --> 00:27:26,720
win. Why would you not?
Why wouldn't you just want to make it

374
00:27:26,759 --> 00:27:30,319
a little more even give it to
right like you already know is so obviously

375
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:33,039
going to give this to Laurel,
Like one, Derek, why the fuck

376
00:27:33,039 --> 00:27:37,599
did you give this to Laurel rather
than like Steve or Leroy or someone like

377
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:41,960
I expected him to give it to
someone else. I did not expect him

378
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,079
to give it to Laurel out of
anybody. Nicole obviously is going to give

379
00:27:45,079 --> 00:27:49,519
it to Laurel, like hands down, never going to give it to anybody

380
00:27:49,559 --> 00:27:55,559
else unless Laurel is being eliminated.
But Veronica, like, why didn't Veronica

381
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:57,119
give it to somebody else? I
would have expected her to give it to

382
00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:02,839
you know, Steve as like the
old especially at this point she knows that

383
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:07,079
Laurel has three stars, and she's
gonna give her a fourth to the to

384
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:10,680
the favorite to win. Like what
you already you already know that she's got

385
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:14,720
this massive advantage. What the fuck
are you stating it in her deck even

386
00:28:14,799 --> 00:28:18,519
more? Yeah? So weird,
what a weird choice. And my guess

387
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,640
is, you know, like we
said, uh, they all were against

388
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:25,440
Kara, and I think they look
at like especially I feel like Ronica,

389
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:27,240
it's like, hey, this is
a double middle finger to Cara, because

390
00:28:27,279 --> 00:28:32,160
one it's a middle finger in the
moment, but two we know how badly

391
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:34,319
she wants to beat Laurel, so
like, let's try to make sure there's

392
00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:38,039
no chance of that happening. What's
really fucking funny about it is she only

393
00:28:38,079 --> 00:28:44,960
doesn't beat her by like this much. Yeah, even though Laurel had four

394
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:48,559
stars, had a massive advantage,
she still only beats her by this much.

395
00:28:49,119 --> 00:28:52,559
Yeah, this is a Laurel like, it's a Laura win, and

396
00:28:52,559 --> 00:28:53,960
we can't take that away from her. It is what it is. But

397
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:59,240
there's an asterisk on this one.
There's one massive, massive asterisk. She

398
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:03,200
barely got it. Took four advantages
and a major mistake by Steve to make

399
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:07,920
this one, yeah for her,
So yeah, it's a uh yeah,

400
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:11,839
it is what it is. Yeah. So Nicole starts leaving and in her

401
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:15,279
little confessional she's talking about how she
wants she's excited to see where things go

402
00:29:15,359 --> 00:29:19,559
with Laurel and wants to cont we
all know that this ship almost immediately,

403
00:29:22,119 --> 00:29:26,039
and we knew everybody should know this
is going to go to ship. This

404
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:30,200
is like, of course this is
going to go to ship this show.

405
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:40,920
H yeah, it's it's insane.
Uh. This is the last part of

406
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:44,079
the final, right, yes,
So they get to spend their night in

407
00:29:44,079 --> 00:29:48,880
a cargo net, which whatever,
I liked this part. I liked seeing

408
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:55,480
Kara and Steve and Ace be friendly
and Laurel be away from them. Me

409
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:57,559
too. I think we got to
see some like real good conversations. We

410
00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:00,319
got to see Carr be a real
human and during this part I like that

411
00:30:00,359 --> 00:30:06,559
part. Yeah, though, yet
again we get a saying that he doesn't

412
00:30:06,599 --> 00:30:11,519
know if he deserves to be there
and also says, you know, this

413
00:30:11,599 --> 00:30:15,039
is a really this has been a
really long final And my only note to

414
00:30:15,079 --> 00:30:18,359
that was, dude, you have
no fucking idea. This final is cake.

415
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:25,119
This final is cake. The this
is nothing yeah, you get to

416
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:27,559
actually sleep. No, like,
hey, you have to do this,

417
00:30:27,599 --> 00:30:32,079
will stand your partner stands on this
thing or anything? Yeah, Ace as

418
00:30:32,079 --> 00:30:33,720
wee is me and I like Ace
a lot. His Woe is Me schpiel

419
00:30:34,079 --> 00:30:41,160
like you gotta you gotta stop.
I'm not into that. Yeah, it

420
00:30:41,279 --> 00:30:45,079
was just dumb. I mean it
was fun to see them all act like

421
00:30:45,119 --> 00:30:48,599
real people. But whatever. And
then Ace also the next morning he mentioned

422
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:55,200
something about a mineral spring that he's
gonna open. That's this was such a

423
00:30:55,240 --> 00:31:00,519
non sequitur. Yeah, this was
real weird. It made no sense.

424
00:31:00,559 --> 00:31:03,359
There was no lead into it.
There was no like this thing is on

425
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:07,519
my property. It was I was
so confused, exactly have any insight into

426
00:31:07,519 --> 00:31:14,400
this weird thing? I mean,
nothing that deep, but yeah, it

427
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,680
just seems like, yeah, he's
a very holistic type person and thinks that

428
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:21,920
there's like a natural spring out there, almost like a mini fountain of you

429
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:25,519
know, youth, they can help. Wait, he thinks that there is

430
00:31:25,759 --> 00:31:30,359
or there actually is this thing that
he's just gonna open. I'm so I'm

431
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:33,480
still so confused. I mean,
he claimed it's the real thing. I

432
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:37,160
don't know about it, but he
said there was one. Yeah, but

433
00:31:37,359 --> 00:31:41,400
is it like on his whatever,
we don't have to go into this.

434
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,599
This has absolutely nothing to do with
anything, and it's just going to confuse

435
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:48,119
me even more. But he believes
it. Yeah, whether it actually works

436
00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:49,880
or not, well, it's and
it's funny to me because he's talking about

437
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:53,240
like it's gonna reverse aging and like
cure the world and cure all the diseases,

438
00:31:53,279 --> 00:31:56,880
and he leans a quarter he needs
a quarter mill to open it.

439
00:31:56,920 --> 00:32:00,920
We should be able to get that
together, right, like if it's if

440
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:02,680
all it takes is a quarter mill
to heal the world, Like, yeah,

441
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:06,519
somebody is gonna put that together.
I feel like you could do the

442
00:32:06,519 --> 00:32:09,200
crowd funds at or like walk into
your closest bank and be like, hey,

443
00:32:09,279 --> 00:32:14,480
I need a I need a house
alone for this. Ye who knows.

444
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:17,799
Yeah, whatever, that's a weird
Ace. That's a weird fucking thing

445
00:32:17,839 --> 00:32:22,359
to say. Yeah, and I
think I did deserve to be there because

446
00:32:22,359 --> 00:32:25,680
I don't know if you saw this
on Reddit to him, but someone pointed

447
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:30,480
out that Ace is the first person
like fifteen years that did not they made

448
00:32:30,519 --> 00:32:34,960
it to the final, that was
not ever vulnerable a single time this entire

449
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,880
game. There's only two rounds where
he was in the bottom and both of

450
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,920
those were girls rounds. Yeah,
I did see that on Reddit. Yeah

451
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:44,559
there was there was no point in
this whole game that Ace could have ever

452
00:32:44,599 --> 00:32:51,640
been eliminated. Interesting yep. And
then good for him. He definitely flew

453
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:53,880
under the radar this entire season.
He got his star. He got this

454
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:58,720
far without doing funck all. So
both times he got a star, it

455
00:32:58,759 --> 00:33:02,000
was given to him. Yeah,
yeah, way to good, good job,

456
00:33:02,039 --> 00:33:05,519
dude. I mean he says he
doesn't deserve to be here, be

457
00:33:05,599 --> 00:33:09,319
there. He doesn't. Really.
Veronica also didn't deserve to be there,

458
00:33:09,319 --> 00:33:15,119
and she was given her star.
So I guess Veronica. I think technically

459
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:20,279
Veronica falls into that same boat,
doesn't she. Oh no, I guess

460
00:33:20,319 --> 00:33:28,039
she was a few times. Yeah
yeah, yeah. All right. So

461
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:37,400
day two it's just one big this
is this is Mario Party as So.

462
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:42,640
Day two is a game called star
Loop. There is a giant field called

463
00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:46,279
the star Loop. In the field, there are five different games. Drink

464
00:33:46,319 --> 00:33:49,839
It, where you have to take
a shot of some gross thing or eat

465
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,680
a live cockroach. Connect It,
where you have to connect a bunch of

466
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:59,119
the tiles with lines on them to
make one single continuous line from start to

467
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:01,839
finish. Rocket where you have to
stack tent. You have to dig ten

468
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:07,760
stones out of a little thing of
mealy worms and stack the stones, keep

469
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:13,320
them stacked for ten seconds without touching
them. Build It, which is you

470
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:16,639
have to assemble a vertical puzzle without
it falling over. And swing it,

471
00:34:16,679 --> 00:34:20,679
which is the bar game with the
ring on a string where you have to

472
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:25,000
like swing it towards the wall and
catch it on the hook, but you

473
00:34:25,039 --> 00:34:28,920
are the one who was attached to
the string and you are trying to throw

474
00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:37,400
the rings onto the hook. Oh
and also really quickly, did you guys

475
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:39,119
notice that on Rocket, the one
where they have to stack the rocks,

476
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:47,199
they had plexiglass things around it to
block the wind. I did. Yeah,

477
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:53,239
massive advantage for them because in other
challenges that has been the massive problem.

478
00:34:54,119 --> 00:34:58,440
So they have to play this game
in laps where you have to play

479
00:34:58,639 --> 00:35:00,440
and you have to play it in
that order. Drink it, connect at

480
00:35:00,519 --> 00:35:07,159
Rocket, build it, swing ups
It's loops because the fact that it wasn't

481
00:35:07,199 --> 00:35:10,119
called laps is what threw me off
on this challenge completely. Oh because TJ

482
00:35:10,159 --> 00:35:14,960
says laps at one point in time, well, the actual title at the

483
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:19,280
bottom says loops. Yeah, interesting, well whatever, so you have to

484
00:35:19,639 --> 00:35:22,519
you have to go. You have
to play game one, so you have

485
00:35:22,559 --> 00:35:24,320
to do drink it, and then
you have to do drink it, connect

486
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:27,400
it, and then you have to
do drink it, connect at rocket,

487
00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:30,159
and so on and so forth until
you get through all five rounds, playing

488
00:35:30,199 --> 00:35:35,440
all five games, and then you
can run to the finish line and get

489
00:35:35,119 --> 00:35:39,679
the final checkpoint. See when he
initially explains that, I thought, because

490
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:45,199
they get on these fucking scooters and
go down this hill and then they get

491
00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:46,920
to the thing. So I thought
they had to write the scooter down,

492
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:52,880
take the drink or whatever, get
on their scooter, make a lap around,

493
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,679
come back, do the thing,
do the thing, get back on

494
00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:59,039
the scooter, go back around.
I thought that's what it was, and

495
00:35:59,079 --> 00:36:00,679
I was like, oh, but
then everybody just starts doing whatever, and

496
00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:04,119
I'm like, well, this is
bullshit. Yeah, I think that the

497
00:36:04,119 --> 00:36:06,079
scooter was going to be part of
it, but I thought that they were

498
00:36:06,119 --> 00:36:09,840
going to have to do the first
game, run a lap around the star

499
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:14,679
like the on the like in the
shape of a star, so you have

500
00:36:14,679 --> 00:36:19,280
to do the full star loop and
then do those two games and then run

501
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:23,360
the entire thing again, like that
would have made it more interesting. That's

502
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:29,880
what they would have done in any
other final whatever something. And so this

503
00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:35,480
is where the stars come into effect. You can use your star your stars

504
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:43,679
to skip one game per loop,
any game you want, very important,

505
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:50,280
very important, one star per loop. So Laurel can skip four games,

506
00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:54,079
Steve can skip two, and Kara
and Ace can each skip one. Laurel's

507
00:36:54,079 --> 00:36:59,480
strategy is to is to not use
it on the first one, use it

508
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,119
on the second one because that's the
case. She uses it on Connected for

509
00:37:02,199 --> 00:37:07,920
the for her second, third,
and fourth rounds, and then she uses

510
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,400
her star in the fifth round on
Swing It because it's the only game that

511
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:17,320
she hadn't played. There's nothing really
all that interesting about what happens in all

512
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:22,039
of these games other than Ace eats
a cockroach and is apologizing to the bug.

513
00:37:23,159 --> 00:37:28,000
I mean I think is interesting is
before we even got to the stars,

514
00:37:28,599 --> 00:37:31,920
was just Car's inability to ride a
scooter? Yeah, what was this?

515
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:36,760
Why was she struggling so hard with
this? She rides horses all the

516
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,679
time, Like I think this would
be I mean even like remotely similar,

517
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:45,599
But yeah, I mean this is
she almost like got her fucking legs torn

518
00:37:45,639 --> 00:37:52,159
off hard. It's got a handbrake, yeah, use it. This is

519
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:54,719
just it's funny. This is one
of those like I think it's just you

520
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:58,559
get freaked out when you start going
so fast, you just sort of get

521
00:37:58,559 --> 00:38:00,519
freaked. And I think she kind
of freaked, And like Ace and Laurel,

522
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:05,480
I don't think they freaked. Steve
took a super early lead. He

523
00:38:05,519 --> 00:38:09,280
got on that thing and fucking flew
down that hill. He was onto like

524
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:14,440
the second game or the second time
of eating something by the time everybody else

525
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:22,719
showed up, flew down that hill. Uh, so Steve uses his let's

526
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:28,800
see they're oh. Ace gets stuck
at the Connected for a long time because

527
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:32,679
he gets a single piece in the
box and that ends up ultimately completely fucking

528
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:36,760
him over. But he doesn't.
He gets stuck at that same puzzle again

529
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:38,920
later, right, he just I
think he just sucks it. That puzzle

530
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:45,599
just does not like him. So
Laurel and Steve are Laurel, Stephen Kara

531
00:38:45,679 --> 00:38:47,159
are all kind of neck and neck
for most of the game, even though

532
00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:54,840
Laurel is continuously skipping over Connected.
So in the fifth round, Laurel finally

533
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:58,800
asked to connect it, and at
this point in time, she and Steve

534
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:01,119
are like neck and neck, and
then Steve has already done that one,

535
00:39:01,159 --> 00:39:07,320
so he finishes that before she does
and moves on to the fourth game.

536
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:10,440
So it moves on to just a
puzzle, Yeah, just a step,

537
00:39:10,559 --> 00:39:14,159
and he makes a point of saying
like, I'm gonna use my star to

538
00:39:14,159 --> 00:39:16,639
skip build it, and we're in
the fifth round. I'm gonna use my

539
00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:21,400
star to skip game number four,
even though this is like a fifteen second

540
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:27,559
game whatever, because then I can
just be done with it. And he's

541
00:39:27,639 --> 00:39:30,199
starting to run back to the stars
and he gets told by a producer,

542
00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:35,519
you can only use one star per
round, So he has just skipped a

543
00:39:35,559 --> 00:39:40,559
fifteen second game to have to play
Swing It, a game that he has

544
00:39:40,599 --> 00:39:44,360
not played yet, and you have
to stay in there while he puts the

545
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:49,760
fucking thing. Oh man, like
instantly five minutes just to just to do

546
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:52,679
that. And Laurel catches up.
And this is where my heartbreaks, because

547
00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:55,920
I was so convinced for most of
us that Laurel's gonna win, and then

548
00:39:55,960 --> 00:40:00,039
when Steve passed, I was like, oh my gosh, he's gonna do

549
00:39:59,920 --> 00:40:01,920
it. And then he's like oh, I have two stars left for this

550
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:05,840
last round. I was like,
my world broke it, Like I see

551
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:09,320
where this is going, and I
saw my Steve when like floating through my

552
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:14,960
fingers because it was so close.
I almost had it. It's heartbreaking.

553
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:17,400
All he had to do was use
those advantages correctly, and even just if

554
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:21,480
he used one of his two advantages
correctly, he would have won. But

555
00:40:21,519 --> 00:40:24,920
he just Steve threw on me a
little in this episode. Yeah, he

556
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:29,800
grew on me a little bit in
this episode and the moment that he did

557
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:36,480
this, uh yeah, but he
had a heartbroken me too. But he

558
00:40:36,519 --> 00:40:38,639
handled it like a mature adult,
right. He was just like fuck,

559
00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:45,400
God damn it fucked. But he's
not pissed at a person. He's not

560
00:40:45,599 --> 00:40:47,639
mad at somebody or saying it's unfair. He's just like, god, damn

561
00:40:47,639 --> 00:40:51,199
it. Like yeah, like he
knew that it was it was only his

562
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,280
fault. Yeah, only his fault. He was the one who fucked up

563
00:40:53,280 --> 00:41:02,760
with it. So yeah, I
I hey this because I found this really

564
00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:09,960
funny. The only reason why Laurel
loss or Laurel won was because Steve fucked

565
00:41:10,039 --> 00:41:17,639
up so badly. Laurel had a
massive, massive, massive, advantage and

566
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:23,519
she only won because he fucked up
just this one game and again. So

567
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:29,639
Laurel passes Steve, she runs off, grabs the thing to set her flag

568
00:41:29,679 --> 00:41:35,119
in motion, whatever, and she
wins. Cara is on her fucking heels

569
00:41:35,159 --> 00:41:38,599
because caraa has the same strategy.
She uses her one star to skip swing

570
00:41:38,639 --> 00:41:44,519
it. Steve finally finishes swing it
and he goes running away and Ace is

571
00:41:44,559 --> 00:41:47,880
left in the dust. So Ace
can't finish because there are only three keys.

572
00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:53,360
Ultimately, Laurel wins. Cara gets
there almost immediately after her, and

573
00:41:53,400 --> 00:42:00,840
Steve's coming in real close behind her. Laurel, with her huge advantage,

574
00:42:00,159 --> 00:42:07,920
only managed to win by like what
a minute? No, are we sure

575
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:10,920
it was only a minute, or
do we just think it's editing to look

576
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:15,440
closer? It could be editing.
It could be editing, but it just,

577
00:42:15,599 --> 00:42:21,239
I mean it, it felt like
it was close enough that her,

578
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:24,079
like Laurel fucked up with her advantage, like she was not actually good at

579
00:42:24,079 --> 00:42:28,199
this final. Yeah, that's the
thing, I mean it did. It

580
00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:32,599
took Laurel's four advantages to beat Steve
and Kara, who had significantly fewer advantages.

581
00:42:32,639 --> 00:42:36,880
I mean, it's just that's a
that's a fact. So, I

582
00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:38,239
mean, you can't take a win
away from a player. It's like,

583
00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:40,400
these are the rules of the game. It is what it is, but

584
00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:45,599
fucking congratulations. But at the same
time massive caveat on it. And you

585
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:52,960
had to have a huge advantage in
order to be Kara and Steve huge advantage

586
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:58,159
and suddenly she's like best friends with
Cara. Yeah, that was the other

587
00:42:58,199 --> 00:43:01,760
thing. Car comes running down towards
the line and Laurel's all happy to see

588
00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:07,519
her. She sounds super excited and
cheering her on, and it's like,

589
00:43:07,599 --> 00:43:12,599
what the fuck is this? You
are so two face? You are such

590
00:43:12,679 --> 00:43:16,119
a fucking hypocrite. I can't.
I cannot stand this woman. I think

591
00:43:16,599 --> 00:43:22,360
like I was super grating. She
just she's such a fucking asshole. I

592
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:27,320
cannot deal with it. So I
definitely thought the same pan first, that's

593
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:30,760
thought about like we saw early in
this season, the Laurel and Carr were

594
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:34,920
going along, it wasn't a Laurel
yeah, and then Laurel fucking stabbed her

595
00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:38,639
in the back to her face.
So do we think is Laurel that horrible

596
00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:43,679
or is just is Nicole the bad
you know? No, Laurel is always

597
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:46,679
an asshole. Laurel has always been
an asshole. This just proved how much

598
00:43:46,679 --> 00:43:52,400
of an asshole she is. Like
she had she tried to Kara was trying

599
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:55,679
to rekindle a genuine It looked like
she was trying to rekindle a genuine friendship.

600
00:43:57,679 --> 00:44:00,039
I thought for a minute Laurel was
going to but then it took thirty

601
00:44:00,079 --> 00:44:05,480
seconds for Laurel to just completely shit
all over all of that, and I

602
00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:08,880
agree her like shit. I guess
in part of me thinks, like,

603
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:13,119
had Nicole not down the season,
I think there's a real chance they did

604
00:44:13,159 --> 00:44:16,599
reconnect this season and they did become
friends and work together all season. Yeah,

605
00:44:16,599 --> 00:44:21,679
I mean there's a possibility. But
Laurel was there, Nicole was there,

606
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:25,760
and Laurel was just an asshole like
she always is. And we can

607
00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:29,320
hate them both, right, we
don't have to pick one. We can

608
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:31,159
hate Laura Nicole. Yeah, yeah, we can hate both Laura and Nicole

609
00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:37,079
totally them. I hit them in
the context of the season. I love

610
00:44:37,119 --> 00:44:39,000
them outside of the show. They're
both super nice. I can't fucking stand

611
00:44:39,079 --> 00:44:44,559
either of them. I love them. I will always love watching Laurel.

612
00:44:44,679 --> 00:44:49,960
She is just she's good at these
games, and I'm I will always watch

613
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:52,960
that, but I won't root for
her though. You know what, if

614
00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:55,760
she's a challenge Mania Carlin, are
you gonna go tell her? I fucking

615
00:44:55,800 --> 00:45:00,519
can't stand you. No, I'm
just not gonna do And yeah, no,

616
00:45:00,639 --> 00:45:04,039
do it. You gotta do it
for the podcast. Go up and

617
00:45:04,039 --> 00:45:07,400
tell her that she's an asshole.
Yeah, no, I'm not that much

618
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:13,000
of an asshole. I will complain
all I want on the podcast, but

619
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:15,199
I'm not going to tell someone that
I have never actually met in person that

620
00:45:15,199 --> 00:45:22,320
they're an asshole, because that's just
so super super richd What about it?

621
00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:24,679
What about Donald Trump? Would you
say that to Donald Trump? Oh?

622
00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:30,880
Absolutely absolutely. There there's a category
of people who I would absolutely do that

623
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:35,599
too. But I yeah, so
I'm thinking of you guys know Shima from

624
00:45:35,639 --> 00:45:39,400
Big Brother. She's on Big Brother
eleven. No, but I met her

625
00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:43,920
like fifteen years ago and I hated
her on the show. And I actually

626
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:45,480
did walk up and this is one
of my favorite responses. I was like,

627
00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:47,440
I told her, I was like, I hated you on the show.

628
00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:50,159
You were a bit. She's like, that's okay, hanh, I

629
00:45:50,159 --> 00:45:52,480
hated you on the show too,
and I was like, Oh, now

630
00:45:52,559 --> 00:45:55,960
I like her. Yeah, it's
I mean, it's that's one of those

631
00:45:55,960 --> 00:46:00,039
things where like you have to have
people like her and Nicole and Laurel,

632
00:46:00,119 --> 00:46:02,280
and that's something I'm sure they get
told all the time. I do not

633
00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:08,920
like you on this show. Yeah, so I just I think it's incredibly

634
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:13,159
rude to go up to someone and
say something like that. Also, Laurel

635
00:46:13,159 --> 00:46:15,960
has absolutely no bearing on my life
whatsoever. Donald Trump, on the other

636
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:19,679
hand, has massive bearing on my
life because he has been the leader of

637
00:46:19,679 --> 00:46:22,320
our country before. There's a serious
chance that could be it again. He

638
00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:25,800
is a massive asshole and I will
gladly say it to his face. He's

639
00:46:27,119 --> 00:46:30,519
ruining everything that we have in place. Right, No, no, don't

640
00:46:30,519 --> 00:46:34,199
hold back, Carland, don't hold
back, keep going. Apparently he again

641
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:42,039
we forgot the most important part at
the end, go back. That's all

642
00:46:42,039 --> 00:46:45,920
the conroaches for you. Yeah,
that was the very final scene. Yea,

643
00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:50,599
oh I do love Ace again.
I do. He's gott to drop

644
00:46:50,639 --> 00:46:52,920
the woe with me stuff, but
this is he's just a goofball. God.

645
00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:58,400
He definitely needs to drop the woe
is me stuff, like you're you're

646
00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:04,679
there because everybody likes you like it's
it's okay. Yeah, and nobody deserves

647
00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:07,840
these finals, man, just fucking
enjoy it. Just go. Yeah,

648
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:12,079
it's funny you and Veronica are both
at the final because you were gifted stars.

649
00:47:12,159 --> 00:47:16,760
Like, just be happy to be
there. Enjoy Yeah, I well.

650
00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:21,320
Final thoughts in the season, guys, good season, bad season started

651
00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:25,199
off strong, started off really strong. I don't know if it actually started

652
00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:30,039
off strong or if we were just
so fatigued by the previous season. Also

653
00:47:30,199 --> 00:47:35,760
possible. I I enjoyed. I
enjoyed the season very much. The final,

654
00:47:36,039 --> 00:47:38,079
the final was not so good at
all. But I liked the season.

655
00:47:38,119 --> 00:47:42,800
I liked the personalities and yeah,
you know, overall, even the

656
00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:46,119
final. I think overall I liked
all of it because it had players that

657
00:47:46,159 --> 00:47:50,079
we are invested in, that we'd
like to see, that are fun to

658
00:47:50,159 --> 00:47:54,000
watch. The final was bullshit.
The eliminations were bullshit. Half of the

659
00:47:54,119 --> 00:47:59,920
games they played were bullshit. Yeah, but yeah, overall I liked this

660
00:48:00,039 --> 00:48:02,280
season. Yeah, but I think
it does prove like this is why we

661
00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:06,719
watch All Stars the cast. That's
these are people that we've just yes,

662
00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:08,159
we've known for forever. We care
about them. That's why we're invested.

663
00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:14,239
That's why they react like the new
champion bullshit, like who gives a shit?

664
00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:16,440
We didn't care about those I didn't
care about any of those people.

665
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:21,159
I'm not invested, and that's why
I didn't enjoy it. Yep, I

666
00:48:21,239 --> 00:48:27,920
agree about the personalities and the people. So I have a fun little thought

667
00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:30,000
exercise for all of us, and
I have a feeling. I already know

668
00:48:30,039 --> 00:48:32,760
the answer that all of you guys
are going to give, but for the

669
00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:37,960
listeners to think about as well.
I saw a post the other day saying,

670
00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:44,920
for all of the non Big Brother
watchers, if there were a Challengers

671
00:48:45,079 --> 00:48:52,320
season where it was entirely fell entirely
cast by players of the Challenge, would

672
00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:59,840
you watch Big Brother? No?
Yeah, really, three days a week

673
00:49:00,039 --> 00:49:05,360
it's too much commitment. If you
could just if you could just watch without

674
00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:12,320
doing a podcast, No, three
days it's too much. I didn't even

675
00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:15,760
I stopped watching the original Big Brother
when Amanda was just watching it because I

676
00:49:15,760 --> 00:49:19,800
mean, this is I didn't expect
that answer. I said, yes,

677
00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:22,280
I think you're missing the bigger picture
here, Wilf. You forget the three

678
00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:27,639
like episodes of the week, we
could have three months of live, unedited

679
00:49:27,679 --> 00:49:34,400
feeds of these people, like in
a house, but it's constantly cut off

680
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:37,519
because someone's saying something stupid, so
they just shut the live feed off.

681
00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:45,599
Like they've gotten better. They just
just cut it off for challenges now.

682
00:49:45,679 --> 00:49:52,119
But I would totally watch it.
Yeah, I didn't think about the three

683
00:49:52,119 --> 00:49:54,239
hours per week. I might get
fatigue two. But I think I would

684
00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:58,400
try it. Would you cary it? Yeah? I think I think I

685
00:49:58,400 --> 00:50:00,719
would actually watch it. I mean
I didn't even think about it. I

686
00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:01,960
didn't realize that it was a three
hours per week thing. But like,

687
00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:07,440
I throw enough shows on in the
background, not doing It's not three hours.

688
00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:14,719
It's three nights a week. Sometimes
the episode's two hours. Sometimes the

689
00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:16,559
episodes one hour. Well, I
mean I have enough things. I just

690
00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:21,519
throw one in the background while I'm
doing other stuff. Anyway, this is

691
00:50:21,559 --> 00:50:24,440
just another thing that I just throw
on the background while I'm doing other stuff.

692
00:50:25,639 --> 00:50:30,960
Three one hour episodes, three hours
a week. I would I would

693
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:35,480
like I would cash out my retirement
and like quit my job for those three

694
00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:38,119
months to just sit and watch the
live feeds all day. I'm not that

695
00:50:38,199 --> 00:50:40,920
obsessed with about it. I would
not do that. That's kind of gross

696
00:50:43,199 --> 00:50:45,800
because I can watch them while I
work. That's what I did season one.

697
00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:49,360
Actually, that's why that's why you
no longer watch Big Brother. I

698
00:50:49,559 --> 00:50:52,199
can't do it. I can't do
it. Yeah, but yeah, I

699
00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:53,440
think I would. I think I
could actually get into it for that season.

700
00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:59,440
But I would only be into it
because it's a bunch of people that

701
00:50:59,519 --> 00:51:06,639
I have genuine like I am excited
to watch. So mhm yep. So

702
00:51:07,119 --> 00:51:09,960
who do you guys think from the
Challenge world would be the best Big Brother

703
00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:21,039
player? Case a Big Brother player
just happen both her and Josh. She's

704
00:51:21,079 --> 00:51:23,400
one, alright, Well, okay, we have to put the caveat in

705
00:51:23,440 --> 00:51:27,000
there of if they have already been
a Big Brother player, they are not

706
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:30,800
allowed to replay the game. This
has to be a Challenge only players.

707
00:51:30,159 --> 00:51:32,639
They have to be like an og
challenge, not someone that I mean,

708
00:51:32,679 --> 00:51:36,960
you know, I don't care.
They can be, they can be,

709
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:40,039
they can be any of any of
the players. They cannot, but they

710
00:51:40,079 --> 00:51:45,599
cannot have been a Big Brother player
or I guess survivor, because that's kind

711
00:51:45,639 --> 00:51:47,000
of the same thing. Yeah,
I don't think I can say I don't

712
00:51:47,039 --> 00:51:50,840
know Big Brother enough to know even
how to play the game to be honest,

713
00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:53,599
I don't know who can do well. Unfortunately, Johnny would probably do

714
00:51:53,719 --> 00:52:00,599
really well. It's just all sitting
around in scheme scheme. Oh so then

715
00:52:00,639 --> 00:52:07,440
Johnny and West pretty much ooh,
Wes. I didn't think about Wes THO

716
00:52:07,559 --> 00:52:10,440
one. I think Wes would be
terrible at Big Brother. You say that

717
00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:15,480
Wes either gets figured out pretty quick
and gets eliminated like right away, or

718
00:52:15,559 --> 00:52:17,920
he does he finishes it. You
know, he's one or the other.

719
00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:22,159
I assume you'd be assume a Big
Brother. Well, my thought is,

720
00:52:22,159 --> 00:52:23,519
and I've always said this is,
this is why I think Johnny's bereater than

721
00:52:23,599 --> 00:52:29,400
West. Wes can only wrangle in
the newbies and control them because they don't

722
00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:31,719
know his game. Bananas can like
pull in the same people ten seasons in

723
00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:36,679
a row and like manipulate them every
time. So if it's all challengers,

724
00:52:37,079 --> 00:52:38,239
there are all gonna be people in
there that know Wes is game, and

725
00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:43,760
I guess you're right through them and
not be manipulated by him. All right,

726
00:52:45,639 --> 00:52:49,239
you say that, but Johnny's been
using newbies for the past couple of

727
00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:52,840
years. Yeah. Usually the Navy
said he's trying to get in the pants

728
00:52:52,880 --> 00:53:00,800
of yep. Yeah, that's all
I had. And I'm trying to think

729
00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:04,679
of the last season his on.
I mean he also had like Tory and

730
00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:13,880
Cory, Like he uses the veterans
as well. Yeah, Johnny's you know,

731
00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:17,119
both West and Bananas have difficulty in
the in the current game because they

732
00:53:17,119 --> 00:53:27,880
are untrusted. Yeah. I think
it's just Yeah, I think who's Johnny

733
00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:30,559
threw a fit last time he was
on and he's like, well, I'm

734
00:53:30,559 --> 00:53:32,159
not going to make it to the
final if I keep getting thrown into elimination.

735
00:53:34,559 --> 00:53:37,599
Yeah, you moron. That's the
point Bananas. I'm trying to think

736
00:53:37,679 --> 00:53:40,559
of, Like, who's just a
chill person that everyone gets along with?

737
00:53:40,599 --> 00:53:45,079
They would go far, Like I
could see something like LeRoi. I could

738
00:53:45,119 --> 00:53:49,000
see sound like an ace doing really
well. I'm big brother. Yeah,

739
00:53:49,079 --> 00:53:52,960
somebody chill that everybody likes. Yeah, yeah, I just got to get

740
00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:55,199
Leroy. And it's got to be
Leroy right. Oh, my Tribute Team

741
00:53:55,239 --> 00:54:01,039
one? What was two weeks in
a row? Was? What was different

742
00:54:01,280 --> 00:54:06,480
this week? No, it's two
weeks in a row? So uninterested in

743
00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:09,199
the podcast that she's currently on.
No, I literally just got the text

744
00:54:09,239 --> 00:54:13,920
messages, So am I I'm playing
a game on my phone because I fucking

745
00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:21,119
hated this episode. I'm dedicated,
no phone for me chat room. Hey,

746
00:54:21,599 --> 00:54:25,480
I took notes and read through all
of them. I made a sign

747
00:54:27,159 --> 00:54:30,320
song. Oh oh, that's what
I was like. I was trying to

748
00:54:30,320 --> 00:54:35,719
look up to see if we did
what the because we kind of talked about

749
00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:38,719
it earlier Fantasy League. Fantasy League. We won't have scores until tomorrow morning.

750
00:54:39,159 --> 00:54:47,239
So unofficially, but most likely the
winner whatever Stove because his his three

751
00:54:47,360 --> 00:54:52,000
players for this week were Kara,
Laurel, and Steve our first, second

752
00:54:52,039 --> 00:54:59,639
and third place finishers. Yeah,
What's eight times nine? Said Kara Leroy

753
00:54:59,639 --> 00:55:07,599
and A so might be in second, third place CT for the win.

754
00:55:07,920 --> 00:55:12,760
Laurel, Steve and Derek. So
there might be some There might be a

755
00:55:12,800 --> 00:55:17,239
switch maybe between What's eight times nine
and CT for the win. Yeah,

756
00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:20,760
we'll just have to see how they
come out. But I don't think I

757
00:55:20,800 --> 00:55:23,360
think I'm going down. If anything, I don't think Stove is moving anywhere.

758
00:55:24,159 --> 00:55:28,199
Yep. I think whatever Stove is
placing first. Yeah, I might,

759
00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:32,320
I might be moving up. I'm
currently in fourth, so I think

760
00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:36,960
second, third and fourth might have
a potential chance, and maybe fifth.

761
00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:39,440
I'm saying for top ten, I
think I'll I think I'll get top ten.

762
00:55:40,679 --> 00:55:45,440
Well, right now, with last
week scores, you were in eighth,

763

months before next season starts something like that.

782
00:57:06,159 --> 00:57:08,760
I'm going to be spending the next
two months commemorating the fortieth season of

783
00:57:08,800 --> 00:57:13,800
the show, but also whatever season
this is. I've challenged, So don't

784
00:57:14,199 --> 00:57:17,199
unjoin the Patreon. Let's just mark
that down to like a buck a month,

785
00:57:17,239 --> 00:57:20,960
because then I want to send the
messages about collecting stuff for this,

786
00:57:22,800 --> 00:57:24,639
for this project I'm working on.
Okay, well, I was going to

787
00:57:24,719 --> 00:57:29,519
pause, but can we just roll
it back to like a buck a month

788
00:57:29,599 --> 00:57:36,800
or something so that I can still
email everybody just as much as much part

789
00:57:36,800 --> 00:57:38,599
of the show as I am.
What you want, all right, I'll

790
00:57:38,639 --> 00:57:42,599
research what I if I can still
email you if it's paused. I don't

791
00:57:42,639 --> 00:57:44,400
know. We're not looking for money, but I want to be able to

792
00:57:44,400 --> 00:57:47,320
reach out to people who like the
show, so we'll figure that out.

793
00:57:47,440 --> 00:57:51,599
Join the Join the Patreon and we'll
figure out what's next after that. Yep.

794
00:57:52,079 --> 00:57:55,719
Also a quick reminder for everybody.
Even though the tickets already sold out

795
00:57:55,760 --> 00:58:01,039
for the actual Challenge Mania event on
I Guess thirty first in Chicago, all

796
00:58:01,079 --> 00:58:05,920
four of us hosts will be at
that event, and there will most likely

797
00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:12,519
be an after party something or another
in the area that the event happens.

798
00:58:12,559 --> 00:58:15,800
And so we would love to see
all of your smiling faces or not smiling

799
00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:22,119
faces. Uh no, frowns allowed. We would love to see all of

800
00:58:22,119 --> 00:58:23,960
you guys. And there's a chance
that ce Ta may show up at the

801
00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:30,519
after party. Yeah mean himmer buds
meet and himmer buds. Yeah. Hey,

802
00:58:30,800 --> 00:58:34,719
you know, maybe maybe I will
charm him enough to come to the

803
00:58:34,719 --> 00:58:38,039
after party and that's where we'll get
married. He doesn't show up two events,

804
00:58:38,039 --> 00:58:42,719
that me and well, that's why
we say that I'm throwing it.

805
00:58:42,760 --> 00:58:46,679
And then maybe he'll show up.
I'll text his buddy Johnny, Johnny Hickey,

806
00:58:49,000 --> 00:58:52,960
say, Johnny, give me Seeta's
number. Sure it will happen,

807
00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:57,679
all your buddy Leroy, I'm sure
Lee Roy totally got I got all sorts

808
00:58:57,679 --> 00:59:05,039
of connections reviews, no reviews?
Is that? Do weing any social media

809
00:59:05,079 --> 00:59:10,199
stough. Uh we do, let
me pull back up. I remember on

810
00:59:10,199 --> 00:59:17,760
my head what it was. Oh, so we have a potential Yes,

811
00:59:17,840 --> 00:59:24,239
we have a potential cast spoiler for
The Traders season three. We want to

812
00:59:24,280 --> 00:59:30,320
discuss that or no? Yeah,
I mean the season three cast has been

813
00:59:30,320 --> 00:59:35,639
out for like a month now,
it has. And the big thing was

814
00:59:35,719 --> 00:59:38,800
we saw that there was no challenges
on this season, but reports are now

815
00:59:38,840 --> 00:59:44,199
coming out that midway through the season, Wes is joining the Traders as a

816
00:59:44,239 --> 00:59:52,880
contestant. Really. Oh interesting thing
so last season we had someone that joined

817
00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:55,599
like about two thirds of the way
through the game, so that might be

818
00:59:55,599 --> 01:00:00,519
the west spot this year. Is
that he Hoe one left or somehow.

819
01:00:02,400 --> 01:00:07,679
Yeah. I have not watched any
I Haven either, and it seems like

820
01:00:07,679 --> 01:00:09,920
I should because it's got survivor people
that I really love on that show,

821
01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:13,400
and I just can't bring myself to
give a shit. For some reason,

822
01:00:13,679 --> 01:00:15,400
it won an Emmy for I think
it was an Emmy. Yeah, an

823
01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:22,039
Emmy for Reality show casting for season
one, and it'll probably win again for

824
01:00:22,159 --> 01:00:25,039
season two. Yeah. It's weird
that like CT was on season two and

825
01:00:25,199 --> 01:00:30,840
like I just don't see and spoilers
they won, Yeah, and yet knowing

826
01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:34,039
that I still don't give a shit
about that show. I just can't add

827
01:00:34,079 --> 01:00:36,920
on. I don't know why I
should, I should be able to turn

828
01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:38,760
it on. I heard really like, I heard a lot of people who

829
01:00:38,760 --> 01:00:44,840
really, really really loved it,
but I just I don't know. It's

830
01:00:45,239 --> 01:00:47,920
I watched it like two or one
or two episodes of the first season,

831
01:00:49,119 --> 01:00:52,199
and I felt like the games that
they were playing were more carnival games than

832
01:00:52,239 --> 01:00:58,079
they were like challenge games. And
when I watch a challenge like show,

833
01:00:58,159 --> 01:01:07,840
I want to see challenge games.
So m yeah, yeah, all right,

834
01:01:07,880 --> 01:01:10,400
Well that's season four of All Stars, right yeap? Also, uh

835
01:01:10,800 --> 01:01:15,800
real quick, A Man Well showed
off his new tattoo. Have you seen

836
01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:19,639
this ship him? Yeah, that's
the one like a Spider Man. It's

837
01:01:19,639 --> 01:01:22,639
like a Spider Man, like a
really shitty Spider Man. Christen Yeah,

838
01:01:22,840 --> 01:01:25,760
kissing Kristen Well. No, So
it's his girlfriend. So you guys know

839
01:01:25,800 --> 01:01:30,320
that famous Spider Man scene of like
Toby Maguire hanging upside down and kissing.

840
01:01:30,599 --> 01:01:34,960
So a Manuel got attacked on his
leg, but Ine Kirsten Dunst, it's

841
01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:37,960
his girlfriend and instead of kissing her, he's sucking on her. Nipple.

842
01:01:38,719 --> 01:01:43,679
He's like motor boating, super weird, and it looks like it was drawn

843
01:01:43,719 --> 01:01:47,920
by like a child. It's like
a really bizarre children's illustration style. It's

844
01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:58,440
very strange, Carlyn. I'll text
it to you, guys. Emanuel is

845
01:01:58,440 --> 01:02:04,280
a weird dude. Yep. The
worst winner of the worst season. Eman

846
01:02:07,599 --> 01:02:10,360
Do you have anything else? We
wrap this season up? Let's wrap it

847
01:02:10,440 --> 01:02:21,320
up. That's fucking awful. It
is right, that's so bad. Yeah,

848
01:02:21,320 --> 01:02:22,880
and is that is her name?
Is Melissa? Right? But that's

849
01:02:22,880 --> 01:02:28,039
not challenge Melissa. Is that a
different Melissa. It's a different Melissa.

850
01:02:29,199 --> 01:02:32,559
Yeah, very weird. Swanee says
theod Olivia are dating and she got his

851
01:02:32,639 --> 01:02:37,679
name tattooed on her. Yep,
we dis I think I think it's like

852
01:02:37,679 --> 01:02:40,000
buying the ear. Wait, you
talked about that last week? No,

853
01:02:40,039 --> 01:02:44,880
we didn't. I mentioned it.
Yeah, when I got back from Atlanta,

854
01:02:44,880 --> 01:02:47,480
I talked about the fact that,
Yeah, she got DIA's name tattoo

855
01:02:47,519 --> 01:02:53,360
there. No, we definitely didn't
talk about that, Zach, I think

856
01:02:53,400 --> 01:02:59,239
we did. We did because I'm
married. Two weeks ago, I asked

857
01:02:59,239 --> 01:03:01,679
you, guys, I'm like,
hey, there's two new confirmed couples from

858
01:03:01,679 --> 01:03:05,760
the season forty. Do you guys
want to know? He said, no,

859
01:03:05,840 --> 01:03:07,800
let's not that'd be a spoiler,
don't say it. And then by

860
01:03:07,800 --> 01:03:10,400
the next week we all knew,
like, you know, because it was

861
01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:15,320
all over social media. I did
not know, we knew they were dating.

862
01:03:15,400 --> 01:03:17,519
We didn't know that she got his
name tattooed on it, which theo.

863
01:03:19,119 --> 01:03:22,440
I fully knew that. One idea. Okay, yeah, one idea.

864
01:03:22,840 --> 01:03:25,519
I totally knew this. Yeah,
this is it. Yeah, Olivia

865
01:03:25,719 --> 01:03:31,880
like Alaska Olivia. Yeah, yes, his name, his name is tattooed

866
01:03:31,960 --> 01:03:35,840
right behind her ear. We talked
about this in the show, Zach,

867
01:03:35,920 --> 01:03:39,360
I think I'm with you. I
think we talked about this. I do

868
01:03:39,480 --> 01:03:44,840
not remember this in any way,
shape or for him. Was it the

869
01:03:45,119 --> 01:03:46,599
was it the after show? Because
I tune out at the beginning, it

870
01:03:46,639 --> 01:03:52,440
could have been. And did we
did we ever end up deciding to talk

871
01:03:52,440 --> 01:03:54,320
about the other couple then? Or
is that one still? No, we

872
01:03:54,360 --> 01:03:59,000
haven't talked about either of them because
they're spoilers for season forty. Gotten to

873
01:03:59,079 --> 01:04:04,400
the to that, Yeah, okay, mm hmm. Hey, everybody,

874
01:04:04,599 --> 01:04:10,679
thanks for hanging out with us for
season four of All Stars. It was

875
01:04:10,840 --> 01:04:15,000
a roller coaster it's up lots of
downs and real real quick because I guess

876
01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:19,719
we're just skipping over it. But
I want I won the host Fantasy draft,

877
01:04:20,280 --> 01:04:27,079
all right, I forgot about that. Yeah, Yeah, rigged shocker,

878
01:04:27,239 --> 01:04:30,360
big shocker. Harlan made a pretty
good comeback. She had she had

879
01:04:30,519 --> 01:04:36,199
four people in the final, but
I had. I couldn't overtake that.

880
01:04:38,639 --> 01:04:42,719
We're gonna tweak this for for next
season. Yeah, next season, I

881
01:04:42,760 --> 01:04:45,320
agree. I think we need to
tweak it where we're not just drafting once

882
01:04:45,320 --> 01:04:46,679
at the beginning of the season.
I want to I'm gonna play around with

883
01:04:46,760 --> 01:04:50,199
it a little bit and see if
we can do like a we picked three.

884
01:04:50,840 --> 01:04:54,239
I don't know. I'll play around
with it a little bit and see

885
01:04:54,559 --> 01:04:59,199
if there's a better way to do
it, because I do like like it

886
01:04:59,239 --> 01:05:00,800
was. It was a lot of
on to pick new players every week.

887
01:05:00,960 --> 01:05:03,559
I do think it'd be kind of
fun to have some players that we're stuck

888
01:05:03,599 --> 01:05:06,599
with the entire time, or that
we can potentially keep the entire time.

889
01:05:06,599 --> 01:05:10,199
I don't know, Well, I'll
play with it, yeah, because it

890
01:05:10,280 --> 01:05:14,440
is this competition thing between all of
us is a lot of fun. And

891
01:05:14,480 --> 01:05:19,159
I also it was fun for Tim
it's like week four and I'm out of

892
01:05:19,159 --> 01:05:23,679
it, freacking hell yeah, And
I think that we should go with the

893
01:05:23,800 --> 01:05:27,880
online version exclusively, Zach, because
I don't like not being able to go

894
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:30,840
in and actually see what the scores
are and only have them on your computer.

895
01:05:31,400 --> 01:05:43,719
Colin doesn't trust you, Zach,
Zach has nothing. We'll see that.

896
01:05:43,840 --> 01:05:45,320
And if we're going to be picking
new people every week, that's just

897
01:05:45,320 --> 01:05:49,440
a pain in the ass to do
analog. Well, and I still think

898
01:05:49,519 --> 01:05:56,199
that if we're gonna do the viewer
league again next year, like where we

899
01:05:56,239 --> 01:05:59,880
pick new people every week, doing
a separate host league where we picked new

900
01:06:00,039 --> 01:06:02,679
of every week is just redundant and
ridiculous. And yeah, I mean we'll

901
01:06:02,719 --> 01:06:05,400
we'll, we'll play around them.
I think it's gonna be. I have

902
01:06:05,440 --> 01:06:13,079
some ideas of how I can set
up the the thing that anyway, Yeah,

903
01:06:13,159 --> 01:06:17,559
I have ideas. Yeah, I
don't think there's anything else. Hey,

904
01:06:17,599 --> 01:06:19,599
all right, let's get the fun
out of here. Hey, everybody's
