00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,359
Hey, everybody, welcome back to
the episode of Challenge. The podcast All

2
00:00:25,399 --> 00:00:31,239
about the Challenge this season is on
Paramount Plus. Usually it's on MTV.

3
00:00:31,559 --> 00:00:35,280
Sometimes it's on CBS. We don't
know what the fuck are you going on

4
00:00:35,399 --> 00:00:41,079
anymore? As usual, I am
Brian sitting across the internet is bi Une

5
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:47,799
and also across the internet, Zachy
Bananas. Hey everybody, thanks for stopping

6
00:00:47,799 --> 00:00:51,119
by. Hit every challengepot dot Com
joined the Facebook group. I can also

7
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:53,679
join Patreon and get all kinds of
cool stuff. But we'll tell you about

8
00:00:53,759 --> 00:00:58,320
later. He tip you get the
radio voice on today. We'll see what's

9
00:00:58,359 --> 00:01:03,240
going on, right, I don't
know. Uh yeah, Should I do

10
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:08,879
it more often all the time?
Yeah? Really forcing some energy into good

11
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:14,680
that's what we need. That we
need that we're very low energy. All

12
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,040
right? Do you want to jump
into this episode? Oh? Boy?

13
00:01:17,079 --> 00:01:19,159
Do I? This one's called Brave
New World. It's episode six of this

14
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:23,959
season. Rumor tells me that there's
twelve episodes this season, so if that's

15
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:29,719
true, we're halfway through, and
it seems like not enough players have been

16
00:01:29,719 --> 00:01:33,640
eliminated before being halfway through the season, but here we are. We need

17
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:37,799
a purge, yeah, or just
like a finale that starts with six teams

18
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:42,239
or something crazy like that. That's
kind of fun. We'll see. So,

19
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,040
as you recall, last week ended
on a cliffhanger, this one picks

20
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:48,079
right back up or the cliffhanger left
off. That is, we're back in

21
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,319
the arena Kiki and Durrell. They're
up on the you know, up in

22
00:01:51,359 --> 00:01:57,200
the whatever bleachers whatever whatever we're gonna
call that thing, and they have to

23
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:05,359
decide who they're gonna throw in against
Wes and Zara, and uh, Durrell

24
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:08,159
just sort of doesn't know who to
throw in. He's kind of stumbling looking

25
00:02:08,199 --> 00:02:13,719
for what to say, and eventually
they just decide to throw in Ben and

26
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,759
Casey. Um when he says this, I don't know just because they you

27
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:21,319
know, this show now shows things
out of order and stuff and it's really

28
00:02:21,319 --> 00:02:25,240
weird. Yeah, And so it
doesn't seem super clear as to why they

29
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:29,199
picked Ben and Casey at this moment. But uh, Wolfie, why do

30
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:35,039
you think they picked Ben and Casey
at this moment? Or just in general,

31
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:39,759
why did they now now that I
know why they picked them? Either

32
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:46,919
one cleared up for us just clear. MTV shows us that at some point

33
00:02:47,479 --> 00:02:53,919
Ben was trying to break up the
Aussee alliance, but maybe get into someone's

34
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:57,039
head and to Bill, you're at
the bottom, bro, what you're following

35
00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,879
them for? So drilled in like
that. So Durrell is like, oh,

36
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:05,599
yeah, Ben can fuck off.
He's like Casey, Casey's just getting

37
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:10,120
caught in the middle. But yeah, I think generally nobody trusts Ben anymore.

38
00:03:10,599 --> 00:03:14,719
Even his allies are sort of like, well, wait a minute,

39
00:03:15,039 --> 00:03:16,800
this guy lies and is flying off
the hand of one doing weird shit.

40
00:03:20,199 --> 00:03:25,120
Yes, for sure. All right, So but Ben thinks as he's walking

41
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:29,960
down, he thinks that Sarah and
Danny are actually behind this move. He

42
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:34,520
thinks Sarah and Danny has something to
do with why he's being thrown in there.

43
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,919
The rest of the episode proves that
that's not right. But why Zach,

44
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:44,360
Why does he think that that Sarah
and Danny are behind this? I

45
00:03:44,479 --> 00:03:47,280
think just because you know, he
kind of went against our alliance and fired

46
00:03:47,319 --> 00:03:54,599
the first shot that anything against him, he's going to assume retribution. Yeah,

47
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:59,759
um, yeah, I think that's
probably right. So all right,

48
00:03:59,759 --> 00:04:03,479
So the channel or the elimination is
between Wes and Zara and Ben and Casey.

49
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:09,280
This one is called Herculeans strength.
I mean this is kind of good

50
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,960
though, two sort of bigger teams. Yeah, well man against each other.

51
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:15,879
Yeah, I think that was a
really good, good move, throwing

52
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:20,040
in Ben and Casey. I don't
think they're making any enemies by throwing in

53
00:04:20,079 --> 00:04:24,600
Ben and Casey because so many people
want them out anyway. Yeah. That

54
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:28,680
really the only enemy they're making is
Ben and Casey themselves, which they didn't

55
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:34,439
trust anyway. Yeah. So this
is an elimination where one teammate has to

56
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:39,480
hold up these weights, the other
teammate has to solve math equations, and

57
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,399
for every math equation that you get
right, you can put a weight on

58
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:47,959
the other team's player. Whoever ends
up drop of these weights first loses,

59
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:56,399
obviously, obviously. So this is
where Zara's dyslexia comes back into place.

60
00:04:56,439 --> 00:05:00,000
She mentioned her dyslexia a couple episodes
ago, and now she says it again,

61
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,439
and then that her dyslexi even extends
to like math problems and math equations.

62
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:09,439
She's very unsure about doing math,
So Wes will do the math.

63
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:14,480
Zara will hold the weights, which
I thought was a very interesting choice because

64
00:05:14,519 --> 00:05:18,240
you would think the men would be
holding the weights, and so I sort

65
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,480
of thought, as Zara is getting
strapped up, I was like, all

66
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:25,000
right, Ben versus Zara, Like, Zara is definitely gonna lose, like

67
00:05:25,079 --> 00:05:30,439
no offense to Tsara. She seems
strong, but Ben is stronger. Yeah,

68
00:05:30,439 --> 00:05:33,839
but Ben also decided to do the
math problems. So Casey and Zara

69
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:39,959
are holding the weights, Ben and
Wes are doing the math. Still feel

70
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:44,720
like that's that's not evenly matched.
No, it's no, because Casey is

71
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,680
also very strong. Yeah. I
was like, Casey's pretty strong. I

72
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:49,959
think she could beat her. But
then at my head, I'm just like,

73
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:55,360
but I know Wes is pretty smart, so he may zip through these

74
00:05:55,399 --> 00:05:59,639
math problems real quick. Yeah,
so maybe it will be more competitive than

75
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,399
I thought. Yeah, it turns
out it wasn't. It was not very

76
00:06:02,399 --> 00:06:06,040
competitive. I thought since I saw
that Zara was holding the weight, like

77
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:11,199
as I got they lost already.
Is that because you thought Ben would be

78
00:06:11,199 --> 00:06:15,199
holding the weights or just the Tsar
is not as strong as Casey either.

79
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:18,720
I thought, you know that Zara
was the physically weakest of all four people

80
00:06:18,759 --> 00:06:25,120
in that elimination, so no matter
who you know, Ben or Casey then

81
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,920
went up there. I felt like
they'd Bill hold way more than her.

82
00:06:29,399 --> 00:06:31,399
Yeah. I think I wonder if
the hope was that Ben couldn't do this

83
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:35,959
math and Wes could just do the
math so much faster that maybe they could

84
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,639
load up Casey with a bunch of
weight. I don't I don't know.

85
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:43,800
I don't know what the strategy here
was, but it seemed weird. We

86
00:06:43,879 --> 00:06:46,879
learned that Ben is not holding the
weight because of his shoulder injury. I

87
00:06:46,879 --> 00:06:50,920
think that's the same one that we
saw him get in Challenge USA. I

88
00:06:50,959 --> 00:06:56,439
believe so. So right out of
the gate, Ben is struggling with the

89
00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:00,399
math, Wes is not struggling with
the math. West comes out with a

90
00:07:00,439 --> 00:07:04,319
pretty good lead, starts stacking weights
on Casey's thing. But Ben does catch

91
00:07:04,399 --> 00:07:09,199
up pretty quickly, and this thing's
over about as soon as it starts.

92
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:15,000
Zara drops the Tzar's out it.
Ben did one of those like Hrder Hurder

93
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,040
math problems, which adds more weight, so he was able to catch up

94
00:07:18,079 --> 00:07:24,920
to the last real quick. Yep, all right, well that's the elimination.

95
00:07:25,439 --> 00:07:29,360
Yeah, Les goes home. I'm
sure Zach was happy. Yeah,

96
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,399
how do you feel about that?
Zach? I was very happy? Um?

97
00:07:32,519 --> 00:07:35,800
No, actually, I think at
that time, I was wanting Ben

98
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:42,079
and Casey go home just because I
thought it would better protect the other people

99
00:07:42,319 --> 00:07:46,319
I liked. So I don't know. I think Ben just needs to get

100
00:07:46,319 --> 00:07:51,279
punished for his move. Yeah.
What did you guys think of Wes's like

101
00:07:51,439 --> 00:07:56,519
going away speech to the MVPs as
he was leaving the arena? So to

102
00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:01,160
him, is he trying to build
relay chips for the next time that they're

103
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:05,480
all on? He'd be like,
Hey, remember when I congratulated you.

104
00:08:05,519 --> 00:08:07,079
I'm pretty cool guy, right,
you should listen to me. We should

105
00:08:07,079 --> 00:08:11,560
hang out. Yeah. Probably is
that what it was? Some sort of

106
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:16,600
a strategy move. Maybe I don't
know. Yeah, I don't get it.

107
00:08:16,959 --> 00:08:20,519
I cannot see any other reason for
him doing it, Yeah, other

108
00:08:20,519 --> 00:08:26,800
than trying to just build a friendship
with him leaving. Yeah, I don't

109
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:31,240
know. Wests does have these moments
where he's really just self important and even

110
00:08:31,279 --> 00:08:35,919
like condescending, and this seemed like
one of those, you know, where

111
00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:39,159
he's like, you know, I
don't know. They had this like sort

112
00:08:39,159 --> 00:08:41,679
of air about him of like,
you guys, you know, your MVPs

113
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:43,919
were the vets. We made this
show what it is. But welcome to

114
00:08:43,919 --> 00:08:46,080
the family. Like I don't know, it just seemed a little one of

115
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:52,519
those like humble brag type of situations. I showed it. I don't either

116
00:08:52,639 --> 00:08:54,679
West. I like West, but
I like him about every other season.

117
00:08:54,879 --> 00:08:58,639
I like him best when I don't
see him for a for a few seasons.

118
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:05,639
H all right, And so Zara's
last words that we see her say

119
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:09,840
as next time, we'll drink the
fucking drink. Does it all come down

120
00:09:09,879 --> 00:09:13,440
to this? Guys? Is it? Are they in there just because they

121
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,679
didn't drink the drink? Are they
going home just because of that? No?

122
00:09:18,399 --> 00:09:22,039
I don't remember how the scores fell
out last episode, but it definitely

123
00:09:22,039 --> 00:09:26,919
didn't help their situation any well.
I think there was somebody else that got

124
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,879
in the negatives just like they did, but not as deep into the negatives.

125
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:35,879
And I can remember who it was, but um Amber and whoever.

126
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:39,919
No, they overcame their deficit somehow. I can't remember who it does,

127
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:45,519
It doesn't matter, doesn't matter,
nope. Um all right. So next

128
00:09:45,519 --> 00:09:48,720
scene we get we have Sarah,
Danny, Grant, and Emily. They're

129
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:52,519
all sitting around and all of them
are talking about how Ben is gonna spin

130
00:09:52,639 --> 00:09:56,240
out now and start causing all this
chaos um, which I don't know.

131
00:09:56,360 --> 00:10:00,519
Do you guys think is that true? It could be true. YEP,

132
00:10:01,039 --> 00:10:05,360
I think it's true. Meanwhile,
Durrell is just sort of sitting around wondering

133
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:11,519
what he's gonna say to Ben and
Casey when they approach him, because you

134
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,519
know that's always what happens. They
come in like why why us? Why

135
00:10:13,519 --> 00:10:18,159
did you throw us in? Durrell
has to come up with a good excuse

136
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:22,120
for it. Well he doesn't.
He's not able to come up with a

137
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:26,039
good excuse at all. Yeah,
I think the truth. I mean,

138
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:31,320
unless Ben and Casey are dumb,
they have to know, like, hey,

139
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,759
we just tried to turn against Australia. He's paired with an Australian.

140
00:10:37,759 --> 00:10:41,320
Yeah, it seems like it could
have been handled really logically, but it

141
00:10:41,399 --> 00:10:46,480
wasn't. Durrell just you know,
as we see them confront Durell and Kiki,

142
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:50,360
Durrell just says, I just didn't
know what name to say, so

143
00:10:50,399 --> 00:10:56,120
I just said your name, which
is like the worst possible explanation, especially

144
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,440
if if you know that you have
to come up with a reason, and

145
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:03,559
then that's the you can come up
with. Comandrell you've played this game enough,

146
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:07,000
come up with a better one.
Carlin says, Darrell looked like a

147
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,759
big dummy. He really did.
This is the first time for a while

148
00:11:09,799 --> 00:11:13,399
that I've sort of been like,
Darell, what's up? I don't know.

149
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:18,559
He usually manages the stuff better than
this time. All right, So

150
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:24,720
next we get Troy and Amber.
They're talking to Tor. Troy is starting

151
00:11:24,759 --> 00:11:30,320
to see that the Asses aren't really
looking out for him Emily and Grant,

152
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,240
They're not really including him in conversations, they're not really helping him. He

153
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:37,360
sees that he's at the bottom of
this alliance and I don't know. We

154
00:11:37,399 --> 00:11:39,960
saw Ben tell him that, but
I'm not sure if Ben needed to tell

155
00:11:39,039 --> 00:11:45,519
him. It seems obvious to everybody. And Ambers says that Australia is falling

156
00:11:45,519 --> 00:11:48,919
apart and she'll throw in the Aussies
if she needs to. That's what we

157
00:11:48,960 --> 00:12:01,039
call foreshadowing. Guys. Yep,
all right, one to the challenge.

158
00:12:03,639 --> 00:12:07,480
Were you guys distracted about how weird
this entrance was into the challenge? Did

159
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:13,080
you even notice? I didn't notice? Oh yeah, were you too busy

160
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:18,519
texting again? Wolfe to to actually
be watching the show that we're talking about

161
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:20,320
on a podcast. Yeah, I
was. Actually I actually watched it at

162
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:24,240
work today after we've had lunch.
Oh nice, So maybe that's why I

163
00:12:24,279 --> 00:12:28,159
missed it. Could be it was
just really weird, like we had we

164
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:33,279
have slow motion walking all the time, but this was like super slow and

165
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:37,039
over a really long period of time
and they had these weird slow cross fades

166
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:41,320
and this like super strong epic music. I don't know, it was really

167
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:45,759
distracting. Chat room, am I
do you agree with me? This was

168
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:52,200
weirder than usual. I'm gonna go
with yes. Uh. This challenge,

169
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:56,840
guys is called a rocket man's kind
of a dumb challenge. Yeah, why

170
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:58,799
I tell me about it? Wolfie? What are you doing this challenge?

171
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:05,759
Uh? Well, you have to
jump off ledge onto one of those giant

172
00:13:05,799 --> 00:13:13,399
inflatable air bags and send your partner
like flying and they have to fly over

173
00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:18,399
like these uh tiered uh I don't
know what the fuck do you call them

174
00:13:18,639 --> 00:13:26,000
bars? Bars whatever? And if
you uh do that, you get time

175
00:13:26,039 --> 00:13:31,000
taken off of your total time and
then both have to swim out, grab

176
00:13:31,039 --> 00:13:35,240
puzzle pieces, swim back, put
these put the most complicated puzzles challenge together

177
00:13:37,159 --> 00:13:39,799
and then time will stop. Yeah, Why was this even a puzzle?

178
00:13:39,799 --> 00:13:43,080
Why didn't they just ring a bell
at the end where they usually have to

179
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:46,440
do this stuff? The puzzle thing
was nonsense, a two piece puzzle.

180
00:13:46,519 --> 00:13:48,320
Give me a break. Have them
go out, go around a buoy and

181
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:52,279
then come back and then come and
ring the bell. That's that's all you

182
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,000
have to do. Yeah, I
agree, Yeah, calling that a puzzle

183
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:58,799
is super weird. Zach, What
did you think any any opinion about this

184
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,080
thing? I mean, I thought
the puzzle is dumb as well, But

185
00:14:03,399 --> 00:14:07,200
I loved the blob because we used
to do that summer camps. I was

186
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:11,039
like, oh, I've done this, and we actually had like hoops and

187
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,440
bars up in the air that we
could try to go through as well.

188
00:14:13,639 --> 00:14:20,039
Were you up that high in the
air? I mean it felt like it,

189
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,919
But I was also like, you
know ten, so if I seemed

190
00:14:22,919 --> 00:14:26,600
a lot higher than it really was. Yeah, I've never done one of

191
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:28,679
these, bof we have you done
one of these? Oh? No,

192
00:14:28,799 --> 00:14:33,240
idea, I'm so fucking fat though, I would send somebody flying into the

193
00:14:33,279 --> 00:14:39,399
atmosphere. Probably so Sidey said,
it felt like there was something epic that

194
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:43,879
was going to happen. When they
walked I'm assuming she means that montage you

195
00:14:43,879 --> 00:14:46,840
were talking about. Yeah, and
Chris says I was waiting for them to

196
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:52,360
do something with this setup. Yeah, Syndey does have a point. It's

197
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:54,399
harder to one with those big pieces, That's true. I don't know.

198
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:56,679
Maybe that maybe that slowed them down
a little bit. I don't know,

199
00:14:58,279 --> 00:15:01,320
But just like Challenge has been doing
lately, they don't really tell us exactly

200
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:05,320
what the rules are, like how
much time is deducted for which bar that

201
00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:09,720
you pass pass over? As well
as like if you knock over the bar,

202
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:13,080
does that mean you cleared it?
Because most people knocked over that top

203
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:16,600
bar as they cleared it, but
we don't know if that counted. I

204
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:20,600
don't know. I wish they just
would be more transparent with this. I

205
00:15:20,679 --> 00:15:22,320
was wondering about knocking the bar down
too. But they actually did show us

206
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:26,159
at the beginning how many seconds each
bar was worth. Oh did I didn't

207
00:15:26,159 --> 00:15:28,240
see that? What were the second
what were the what were they worth?

208
00:15:28,799 --> 00:15:33,080
If you get over the top one, it was sixty seconds off, middle

209
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:37,399
was thirty seconds off, bottom was
fifteen seconds off. Okay, interesting,

210
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:43,080
Okay, well I totally missed that. Well, then that does help point

211
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,919
out how some of these times are
people who didn't get the higher bar.

212
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:54,559
Some of their times don't aren't very
good. Yeah, Well, as this

213
00:15:54,639 --> 00:15:58,320
challenge is starting, Jordan has a
confessional where he talks about seeing cracks in

214
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:03,080
this US Australia a lion. The
scene has seemed kind of impenetrable, so

215
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:07,039
UK was kind of freaking out.
But Jordan now is part of the UK

216
00:16:07,399 --> 00:16:11,440
team season opening for them. If
they can sort of nurture that chaos and

217
00:16:11,519 --> 00:16:14,639
make them fight amongst themselves, maybe
he can make a little progress there.

218
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:19,320
Yeah. So I don't have a
ton of notes about what happens in this

219
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:23,639
competition. There's only two runs we
really need to talk about. Yeah,

220
00:16:23,639 --> 00:16:27,159
what's the first one? First one, obviously is Grant trying to jump off

221
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:33,159
this thing, completely fucking it up, Like literally all you had to do

222
00:16:33,279 --> 00:16:36,799
was like fall forward and most of
the work would have been done for you.

223
00:16:37,279 --> 00:16:41,440
Yeah, of course, Grant like
for some reason jumps into the air

224
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:45,519
and then falls immediately to the left, completely misses like the bag pretty much

225
00:16:45,559 --> 00:16:51,120
altogether. It hits like the side
of it. And then John A like

226
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:53,320
jumps like two feet in the air
that just goes right into the water.

227
00:16:53,399 --> 00:16:59,679
They don't hit any of these bars. Yeah, super weird. How did

228
00:16:59,679 --> 00:17:04,039
Grant fuck this up so well?
Lab it's where because I know it's when

229
00:17:04,039 --> 00:17:07,720
he's up on the platform. If
you look, he's actually already like standing

230
00:17:07,799 --> 00:17:12,799
sideways towards where he jumped instead of
like facing it straight on. Yeah,

231
00:17:12,799 --> 00:17:17,720
it seemed like he had some strategy
in mind because he hit the bag at

232
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:21,440
a weird angle that seemed like he
had to purposefully do it that way.

233
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:23,839
It seemed like he was trying to
do something and it just did not work

234
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:30,359
the way he expected or something.
I don't know. There's like two little

235
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,000
like airbags connected to it, and
he got all tangled up, and then

236
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,720
he swam and he was talking about
how his knee was all jacked up but

237
00:17:37,759 --> 00:17:41,039
he kept going, which kudos.
Yeah, he says he fucking booted his

238
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:44,559
knee. I like the I do
like the asse slang. I gotta be

239
00:17:44,599 --> 00:17:49,599
honest with you on that one.
Yeah, And then uh, Emily's run

240
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:55,599
with Yes. Yeah, she's an
Olympic swimmer. Yeah, and oh my

241
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:59,400
god, it was amazing to watch
her though. She was incredible in the

242
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:03,240
water. Yeah. Absolutely, it
looked like everybody else was just standing still

243
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:07,119
and she's just like flying through the
water. Yeah, she went and she

244
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:10,160
was a puzzle piece up there,
and then she went back and got yeses

245
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:15,880
and was kind of dragged yes along
crazy. Yes, her performance was unbelievable.

246
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:22,680
Yeah, some of some of my
other notes. Justine's launch was also

247
00:18:22,839 --> 00:18:26,240
unbelievable. She was I think the
only one that I made note of that

248
00:18:26,319 --> 00:18:30,279
cleared that top bar and didn't touch
it, didn't knock it down. And

249
00:18:30,319 --> 00:18:34,200
then I guess before the challenge she
told Bananas that she couldn't swim, but

250
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,240
she looked like she could swim.
To me, she was rocking that challenge

251
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:41,920
pretty good. She was killing it. Yep. Cindy says, as a

252
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:45,440
former swim teacher, she was great
to watch. Yeah, clearly knows what

253
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:51,279
she's doing in the water. Yes. Carlo says, I would have loved

254
00:18:51,279 --> 00:18:55,519
to see what West, well,
what West would say about her swimming and

255
00:18:55,519 --> 00:18:59,680
if he would try to compare herself
itself to her. I would love to

256
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:03,319
see that too, Yeah, christ
Yeah, I have a note that Jody

257
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:07,559
was pulling Benha out of the water. I always like it when the women

258
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,640
can sort of outperform the men and
show him up. A little bit,

259
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:15,640
and Jody did not surprised. Jodey's
a rock star with this stuff. Uh

260
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,759
yeah, So obviously Grant and john
A they were last place. Grant was

261
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,759
escort at home in an ambulance,
so we don't even see him anymore.

262
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:32,119
But john A's last straight to elimination
with her and TJ always says this one

263
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,200
second separated first and second place?
Do we believe this bullshit? Guys?

264
00:19:34,279 --> 00:19:38,279
Is it really one second? Probably
not. It feels like it's always one

265
00:19:38,279 --> 00:19:44,920
second. Maybe I'm dumb. I
believe TJ. He wouldn't like to us.

266
00:19:45,319 --> 00:19:48,240
I fully think you lies. He
always does the stuff. He's like

267
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:52,440
it all. It came down to
two tenths of a second, Like is

268
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,880
it always that close? I don't
know. I don't I don't buy that

269
00:19:55,880 --> 00:20:00,079
stuff. Uh well, first and
second place are Kelly and and Tris and

270
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:03,359
Kaz and Jordan. Those are the
top two performers and ultimately it's Tristan and

271
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:06,640
Kelly in that win this one.
Are we surprised? Guys? What do

272
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:11,640
you guys think about this one?
I'm a little surprised because that means yes,

273
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:15,880
ate it so much in this challenge, like fucking Emily. Like,

274
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,160
like we said, swam got her
piece, went back out, swam and

275
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:23,680
met yes and grabbed his piece,
went in but it together that had to

276
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:30,160
swim back out to grab him.
So obviously he fucked their team up completely.

277
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,359
And also I can't remember it didn't
They also not make it over the

278
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:40,279
top rung on the launch. I
don't think it showed yes as launch that

279
00:20:38,839 --> 00:20:42,559
I yes, yes, only went
through the second one, right, Okay,

280
00:20:42,839 --> 00:20:45,599
yeah he missed the first one.
So yeah, if they made them

281
00:20:45,599 --> 00:20:49,720
say how they had to like make
up thirty seconds now, Oh okay,

282
00:20:49,759 --> 00:20:55,119
that makes sense. All right,
Well that's the end of this challenge.

283
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:59,480
As they walk out of here,
TJ says, no stalemates. Yeah,

284
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,640
menacingly, as if that's a threat
at all. We know what happens with

285
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:04,839
the standmate. Think it's not a
big deal. Yeah, shut up,

286
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:11,799
TJ. Yeah. So as they're
leaving, ben Ha thinks that he and

287
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:15,480
Jody are going to be the easy
targets. Um, they're the only Argentinians

288
00:21:15,559 --> 00:21:18,559
left. Everyone has already said their
name that it's gonna be easy to keep

289
00:21:18,599 --> 00:21:21,160
saying their name, So they've just
sort of got to deal with what to

290
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:26,440
do here. Yeah, next up, we have Tory talking to Danny and

291
00:21:26,559 --> 00:21:33,480
Sarah. Uh, Tori is I
don't know. Tory is not good at

292
00:21:33,559 --> 00:21:38,119
running these conversations. Not she's not
clear, she's not like super clear about

293
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,039
what she's trying to say, and
not forceful enough. And I don't know.

294
00:21:41,079 --> 00:21:45,079
There's just every time she's on the
screen, because she's gonna try to

295
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:48,799
lead this, she needs to just
be a hard ass about shit. Yeah,

296
00:21:49,079 --> 00:21:52,160
just straight up say shit, rather
than trying to beat around the bush.

297
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:56,160
And well, I mean, you
know, we shouldn't. It's like,

298
00:21:56,279 --> 00:22:00,960
just say it, just say hey, don't vote your I like George,

299
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,920
I don't want him to go in. Yeah, all you got to

300
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:08,240
say. And she tries here.
She says that they're only options. They

301
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:11,680
can only throw on Australians or Jody
and Ben hot and that's all they that's

302
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:15,400
all they can do. And I
think Danny and Sarah just like, well,

303
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:19,519
why we don't have to do that
at all. He can do whatever

304
00:22:19,599 --> 00:22:23,799
we want. So this is where
they have the awkward conversation. It's uh,

305
00:22:25,079 --> 00:22:29,279
Bananas comes in in the middle of
it. It seems clear that like

306
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:33,000
Banana's Tory, these other vets are
trying to get Sarah and Danny to just

307
00:22:33,079 --> 00:22:37,440
go along with what they say,
and Sarah and Danny are basically just like,

308
00:22:37,839 --> 00:22:44,240
no, we're not gonna Um,
Zach, I'm interested in your perspective

309
00:22:44,279 --> 00:22:47,559
on these chats because Bananas, to
me, comes off looking like a major

310
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:53,839
prick. What how did you interpret
these conversations? Um? I didn't think

311
00:22:53,839 --> 00:22:56,680
he has a park here, you
know. I thought, you know,

312
00:22:56,759 --> 00:23:00,720
like, I don't know if he's
dessarily given them the best advice, but

313
00:23:00,759 --> 00:23:04,240
I felt like he was trying to
give it in a way that wasn't condescending,

314
00:23:04,599 --> 00:23:10,079
and Sarah just kind of like flew
off the handle. I felt like

315
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:15,640
he was absolutely being condescending. We'll
figure the tiebreaker was Banana's condescending or not.

316
00:23:17,319 --> 00:23:18,799
Look, I don't know how to
feel about this conversation because I fucking

317
00:23:18,839 --> 00:23:25,480
hate both of them. So I
was just sitting back and enjoying those two

318
00:23:25,519 --> 00:23:26,440
going at each other. I'm like, yeah, fuck both of you.

319
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,319
But you can't you hate both and
still be able to say, like,

320
00:23:30,559 --> 00:23:34,960
well, Bananas is worse. I
don't know if he was worse. Um,

321
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,640
he did have a point. He's
like, I feel like if I

322
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:41,559
was going to be on survivor.
I would sit back and listen to them.

323
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,839
That's not true whatsoever. He would
just do whatever the fuck he wanted.

324
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:49,799
Yeah, but the point was was
obvious. But yeah, they had

325
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:53,839
zero interests. So was Johnny Banana's
being a prick? I mean yes,

326
00:23:53,920 --> 00:24:00,720
because he was breathing. M Is
it specific to the situation though, Yeah,

327
00:24:00,799 --> 00:24:03,480
I guess I do feel like it
was specific because he kept saying like,

328
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:04,759
I just wish you would listen to
me. I just wish you would

329
00:24:04,759 --> 00:24:08,039
listen to me. And I just
think like, well, they were listening

330
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,519
with to you. They just disagreed. They just don't think that you're right,

331
00:24:12,839 --> 00:24:17,200
which is different, Like it's not
they're not ignoring him, they're listening

332
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:18,480
and then saying like, well,
you don't have my interest at heart.

333
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,880
And that was clear when Sarah said
like that, you know, just show

334
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:25,079
me the big picture, tell me
what the big picture looks like, and

335
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:26,400
i'll, you know, I'll see
if I want to work with you,

336
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,759
and Bananas was like, oh no, no, no, we don't do

337
00:24:29,799 --> 00:24:32,599
big picture stuff. We only focus
on right now and right now you need

338
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:36,799
to do this. I don't know, it just seemed very condescending. The

339
00:24:36,799 --> 00:24:41,599
thing I did like is that he
would do that thing where he starts rubbing

340
00:24:41,599 --> 00:24:45,440
his eyes, like, and Sarah
would totally call him out. Yeah,

341
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:48,559
go ahead, start doing that,
She's crazy thing. If he would do

342
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:52,319
something else, she would just call
him out on that too, And to

343
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:53,559
the point where he just got up
and walked away. And I'm like,

344
00:24:55,319 --> 00:24:57,680
damn it, don't do stuff.
I like Sarah because you're fucking annoying.

345
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:03,799
And it's okay to change your opinion. Wolfee. If Sarah makes you're happy

346
00:25:03,839 --> 00:25:07,079
in this moment, you can you
can start liking Sarah. No no,

347
00:25:07,079 --> 00:25:11,559
no, no no, I already
hated their five seconds later. Well,

348
00:25:11,599 --> 00:25:15,680
I'm not the biggest Sarah fan either, but she's right here. I really

349
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:21,039
I am fully on team Sarah in
this seems Sarah and Danny in this conversation.

350
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,400
I think Sarah handled it exactly perfectly. When you're dealing with somebody like

351
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:27,960
bananas, um, and yeah,
fuck bananas, Zach. I'm glad you

352
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,480
agree with me and all that.
I'm sure you would love to fuck bananas.

353
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:36,839
You'd be so lucky. But you
know, this conversation between these guys,

354
00:25:37,279 --> 00:25:40,240
uh, it probably got their nerves
kind of frazzled. Don't you think,

355
00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:42,759
Wolfee, I'm sure. What do
you think they could do if they

356
00:25:42,799 --> 00:25:48,359
needed to kind of calm down a
little bit? Uh? Sometimes I've heard

357
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:52,920
some CBD can help your calm down
some CBD tell me more. You have

358
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:59,559

364
00:26:26,519 --> 00:26:30,240
these challengers with the crazy eyes like
Sarah Head in this conversation. But also,

365
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:34,000
yes, Brad is my second example. Get these crazy ad people to

366
00:26:34,039 --> 00:26:38,119
take some CBD and see if they
can come out looking like normal humans.

367
00:26:38,279 --> 00:26:41,480
Yeah, see if their eyes kind
of go back into their soul a little

368
00:26:41,519 --> 00:26:45,000
bit and just relax them. It's
got to recede into the eye sockets a

369
00:26:45,039 --> 00:26:49,319
little bit. Yeah sure, yeah, yeah, buy that CBD guys.

370
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:56,759
Pure Spectrum CBD dot Com challenges a
checkout. Yeah all right, Well,

371
00:26:56,799 --> 00:27:03,640
we're in due deliberation. I guess
it's or nomination for that's it. What

372
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:08,880
do we call him? This process
here, let's good deliver the deliberation.

373
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:14,119
We'll do that. Carlos. Kellyan
falls in that category. She probably needs

374
00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:18,680
some stressing in her life. Yes, she Kelly and sometimes has the crazy

375
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:22,480
eyes too. When you can see
the whites with the white all the way

376
00:27:22,519 --> 00:27:26,400
around, that's when it gets a
little like whoa, like you got to

377
00:27:26,599 --> 00:27:32,440
chill out, dude, crazy of
course. Kell Yeah, friend of the

378
00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:37,400
show, Kellyan love Kellyan. Yes, all right. So as part of

379
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:44,480
this deliberation, Amber starts it um
and man, she is pulling no punches

380
00:27:44,559 --> 00:27:47,160
here. She's basically just like fuck
you, yes, and Emily, I'm

381
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:52,240
voting for you, um, fuck
you Sarah and thea I'm voting for you

382
00:27:52,319 --> 00:27:56,680
too. Uh. And so then
we have a flashback Wolfe you love these

383
00:27:56,680 --> 00:28:02,279
flashbacks. This just show it on
the show. I know, it's super

384
00:28:02,319 --> 00:28:06,480
weird. I don't know why they
do these flashbacks. It's really unusual.

385
00:28:07,559 --> 00:28:15,480
But we see that Ben approached Amber
and told Amber that Tory's crew was gunning

386
00:28:15,519 --> 00:28:18,119
for her, and he did this
in an effort to sort of pull Amber

387
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:22,880
over into their side and get that
get her and Troy to vote along with

388
00:28:23,039 --> 00:28:27,559
Casey and Ben. Seems like it
worked, right, guys, seems like

389
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:33,440
it? Yeah at all, because
we never saw that conversation take place.

390
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:37,559
And do you think they actually were
trying to target Amber? Do you think

391
00:28:37,559 --> 00:28:41,799
they just made that up to turn
to turn Amber against them? Yeah,

392
00:28:41,799 --> 00:28:45,319
that's the big question, isn't it. I'm not sure. I don't I

393
00:28:45,319 --> 00:28:48,079
don't have any theories. Do you
have a theory. I don't have a

394
00:28:48,119 --> 00:28:52,920
theory because I'm mad at MTV for
doing this flashback bullshit? Fuck them?

395
00:28:53,039 --> 00:28:57,680
What's your theory, Zachy? I
think they made it up because Emily did

396
00:28:57,759 --> 00:29:03,720
seem pretty surprised about her targeting her
and you know, so I feel like

397
00:29:03,759 --> 00:29:10,480
Emily didn't see this coming. Yeah, I'm not sure if I if if

398
00:29:10,799 --> 00:29:15,200
Amber and and uh Troy were targets, but it seems clear that they're at

399
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:19,400
the bottom of the Aussee alliance,
um and that maybe they could move up

400
00:29:19,519 --> 00:29:23,680
in their in their ranks if they
kind of realign with somebody else. Um.

401
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,279
So I don't know. Well,
we'll see how this strategy ends up.

402
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,359
But yeah, Emily's pissed. I
don't know. Um. The other

403
00:29:33,359 --> 00:29:37,160
part I thought was interesting Danny and
Tory, Uh, it's their turn to

404
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:38,839
vote, and they basically just say
like, oh, we're not voting yet.

405
00:29:38,839 --> 00:29:41,440
We want to see what everybody else
is going to do and then we'll

406
00:29:41,519 --> 00:29:48,079
vote at the end. Uh.
And THEO is not dropping this, He's

407
00:29:48,119 --> 00:29:51,480
just like fucking say the name,
like it's your turn, Like you go

408
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:56,359
go go? Who's right? Wollfee, who's right? I would say Theo's

409
00:29:56,440 --> 00:30:00,599
right, Okay, why don't because
don't pull that Oh we're not going to

410
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:04,200
vote, We're gonna wait to see
whatever Bale says. Bullshit, Just you

411
00:30:04,279 --> 00:30:08,319
got your plan. Vote fucking vote. It's your turn. Yeah, vote,

412
00:30:08,519 --> 00:30:11,880
And I would tell everybody like,
no, nobody else go until they

413
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:15,319
vote. So you're all night if
we have to. What about you,

414
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,279
Zachau? Is that what's the who's
right in this? In this debate?

415
00:30:19,359 --> 00:30:22,039
I think Danny's right, you know, as as far as we know,

416
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:26,400
there's no rules saying you have to
go in a certain order like around the

417
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:30,640
table. So you know, we
saw last week that they are a team

418
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:34,279
divided, so I think you know, they don't have a unified decision going

419
00:30:34,359 --> 00:30:37,880
in to let them kind of figure
out what's happening and go from there.

420
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:42,039
Yeah, I agree. I'm also
on team Danny, so sorry, we'll

421
00:30:42,079 --> 00:30:45,000
fore you are outnumbered. It's okay, Sucker has got my back in the

422
00:30:45,079 --> 00:30:49,000
chat room. All right, chat
room, you've gotta vote it. You've

423
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:53,200
gotta vote to chat room. Who's
right? Um, I'm gonna I'm gonna

424
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:56,759
sitte with Danny. I think number
one. I just like Danny. I

425
00:30:56,839 --> 00:31:00,160
just think that he and I would
just be best friends forever. I just

426
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:06,519
like everything about him. But he's
also one like this dude is playing to

427
00:31:06,559 --> 00:31:10,880
win. He doesn't care if people
like him. He is just gonna do

428
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:15,119
the best he can. There are
no rules that say you have to vote.

429
00:31:15,559 --> 00:31:19,160
You can just say pass, and
Danny is becoming an expert at figuring

430
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:23,880
out like, well, I can
follow the rules while also pissing people off

431
00:31:25,359 --> 00:31:29,240
and doing things that they might not
want me to do. Because I guess

432
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,119
I don't know if you guys saw
this, but last week for the stale,

433
00:31:32,319 --> 00:31:36,839
the stalemate thing, I guess,
producers intervened and we're like, you

434
00:31:36,839 --> 00:31:40,960
guys cannot have a stalemate. You
have to vote for somebody, and Danny

435
00:31:41,079 --> 00:31:45,359
was just kept being like no,
I'm not like, I'm not gonna So

436
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:48,599
Danny would not change his vote,
and producers were getting upset with him and

437
00:31:48,599 --> 00:31:53,000
everything, but he just stuck to
his guns and wouldn't do it. Did

438
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,440
you read that, Zach too?
I heard about that. Yeah, I

439
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:59,480
love Danny. I hope he doesn't
push production enough though, where they're like

440
00:32:00,119 --> 00:32:04,160
too much of a problem child to
bring back. Yeah, I'm not sure

441
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:06,759
either. There's got to be a
line somewhere where production is not going to

442
00:32:06,759 --> 00:32:08,720
tolerate his ship. But he did
this on Survivor too. Remember, he

443
00:32:08,759 --> 00:32:13,519
was really outspoken about that hourglass twist. He said it to Jeff Prope's right

444
00:32:13,559 --> 00:32:16,720
to his face that he hated that. Every like interview that he gave he

445
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:22,200
said he hated that rule on Survivor. So this is a guy he's you

446
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,960
know, he's playing to win and
he will follow rules, but he will

447
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:30,880
not just sort of bend to anybody's
will. Former NFL player Yeah, hit

448
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:35,079
him with that. US Checker says, THEO. Joker says, Team Danny,

449
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,880
Chris says THEO. Cindy says,
I see, I see, I

450
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:44,319
see why they want to wait.
Strategically, However, what happens if everybody

451
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,920
keeps passing because of the same thing, voting should be in an order.

452
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:52,240
Yeah, I kind of I kind
of agree with that, but then we

453
00:32:52,279 --> 00:32:54,039
shouldn't that has to be part of
the rules, like there has to be

454
00:32:54,119 --> 00:32:57,920
a blind vote or as to be
like there has to be some way to

455
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:01,880
do this. But there's nothing.
There's nothing against the rules that just say

456
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:06,279
pass. So Danny's just saying pass. I'm just not gonna just not gonna

457
00:33:06,319 --> 00:33:08,960
do it. Um, And I
don't think he does. I don't have

458
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:14,359
the nomination order here. I'm certainly
not thoroughly and not correctly, but I

459
00:33:14,359 --> 00:33:17,480
don't think he does vote he does, I can't. They threw a burn

460
00:33:17,599 --> 00:33:22,680
vote on someone, So they they
did. They threw a burn vote on

461
00:33:22,759 --> 00:33:27,319
Jordan. Yeah, you're right,
yes, which time surprised Tory let that

462
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,119
happen. Yeah, she kind of
okayed it with Jordan there at the table,

463
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:32,240
and Jordan's just like fucking say it, just go, let's go,

464
00:33:32,759 --> 00:33:37,640
let's go. Yeah, yes,
you're right. So I have the They

465
00:33:37,759 --> 00:33:42,640
voted for Jody and Ben Hah and
Jordan and Kaz, so all right,

466
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,759
so everybody else votes uh blah blah
blah blah, blah, doesn't really matter.

467
00:33:45,839 --> 00:33:50,960
The nominees end up being Jody and
ben Ha and Yes and Emily.

468
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:58,640
No surprise is here, right,
guys, not at all. Yeah,

469
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,440
as the other two teams are sitting
in that what do they call that Hall

470
00:34:01,519 --> 00:34:07,840
of Legends or I don't know whatever
bullshit, and uh, john A is

471
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:12,079
just sort of wondering, like,
will Grant even be back? How is

472
00:34:12,119 --> 00:34:15,679
this gonna work? What's gonna happen? Um, it's never a good thing

473
00:34:15,679 --> 00:34:22,400
when your teammate is hallaway in an
ambulance. So she's kind of stressing.

474
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:34,480
So that's it. We'd the elimination. Yes, Uh, TJ calls out

475
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:38,679
Grant and john A. John A
comes running out, Grant comes hobbling out

476
00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:44,639
on these crutches. Uh, this
knee all bandaged up. Bananas is yelling

477
00:34:44,639 --> 00:34:50,639
at him from up there, being
rude and inconsiderate. Yeah, super weird.

478
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:54,880
Okay, Banna's long story short,
believe it or not, Guys,

479
00:34:54,920 --> 00:35:00,960
the guy can't continue in the show
with a but what word did he use

480
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:07,840
for his une his booted knee?
So that's it. Guess he's done zo.

481
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:13,519
He's going home. Johnny is going
with him, and there will be

482
00:35:13,599 --> 00:35:17,760
no elimination. John A's winning streak
comes to an end. Yeah, kind

483
00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:21,159
of kind of a bummer, but
she has a good attitude about it.

484
00:35:21,519 --> 00:35:24,880
Yeah she does. I tend to
feel like we would all be that way

485
00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:29,239
and be like, look, your
knees sucked up. Yeah, big videos

486
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,599
don't like you quit everything. He
gets props for still going after he fucked

487
00:35:32,599 --> 00:35:38,320
his no kidding. TJ gave him
great praise for that too. Are we

488
00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:45,400
going to see him back? Probably
not. I don't know. Maybe maybe

489
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:51,800
TJ's worried you took that fucking weird
ass jump off that uh platform for some

490
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:58,360
stupid reason. I don't know if
they will bring back like players from the

491
00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:00,639
international version, but if they do, I think he's a lock to come

492
00:36:00,639 --> 00:36:07,199
back. Why do you think that, I think because he's a good competitor,

493
00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:09,079
you know, like I think TJ
is gon't respect the fact he still

494
00:36:09,079 --> 00:36:13,960
did the swim after getting injured.
So I think he's just someone that would

495
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:17,039
you know, be a strong male
that because TJ is the one who picks

496
00:36:17,039 --> 00:36:22,920
all the cast members. Sure right, I heard so. I've I've really

497
00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:28,960
liked Grant. I think he's like
funny and personal. I've really enjoyed watching

498
00:36:29,039 --> 00:36:34,159
him, but I read on the
MTV Challenge subread the guy's a major prick

499
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:40,840
and apparently had a very serious girlfriend
during the time he was shooting his season

500
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:46,639
of Love Island and pursued all these
like fake relationships knowing yet a girlfriend at

501
00:36:46,679 --> 00:36:50,840
home. I really just did it
for the TV time. I don't know,

502
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:52,800
Zach, do you know anything about
this if you read up on any

503
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:55,519
of this. I don't. But
doesn't surprise me because I feel like,

504
00:36:57,239 --> 00:37:00,480
on like Love Island in The Bachelor, you have a couple of people season

505
00:37:00,519 --> 00:37:07,039
that go on just for the TV
fame while they Yeah, I'm not surprised

506
00:37:07,079 --> 00:37:09,519
that he but I mean that any
of these people would do something like that.

507
00:37:09,599 --> 00:37:15,119
But Carlin says he was a major
sick in the Australia season and corrects

508
00:37:15,119 --> 00:37:21,280
herself to say he was a major
dick. Yeah that's right, Carlin.

509
00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:27,159
I'm gonna point out your spelling.
Airs. Uh. Well, that's it.

510
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:30,599
So they are leaving, Yes and
Emily. They say they are now

511
00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:35,760
stranded. They have no alliance anymore. The Australians have sort of disbanded and

512
00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:44,079
they are now sort of stuck without
any without any alliances and Kelly and does

513
00:37:44,079 --> 00:37:46,039
not feel great about john A leaving
the game in this way. She thinks

514
00:37:46,079 --> 00:37:50,000
Johnny should have been able to fight
to stay there, which I thought was

515
00:37:50,159 --> 00:37:54,119
very like fair thing of Kelly And
to say, yeah, it was nice.

516
00:37:55,599 --> 00:38:00,480
And I guess I'm upset for Kelly
Anne and Tristan that there when basically

517
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:08,079
means nothing. They had no power
to control anything in this elimination. That's

518
00:38:08,119 --> 00:38:13,719
they just they won for nothing.
It's really that big of a power though.

519
00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:15,880
You get to pick between two teams
that are determined by the rest of

520
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:21,199
the house. That's not really much
power in this version of the game.

521
00:38:21,599 --> 00:38:24,400
I mean, it's at least something. And especially because of the conflict that

522
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:27,960
she and John Ay had, I
would have liked to see some discussion between

523
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,960
her and john A about Johnny,
who do you want? Why should I

524
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:35,039
give you what you want after you
what you did to me? You know,

525
00:38:35,079 --> 00:38:37,360
like, I don't know. I
would have liked to see some impact

526
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:39,880
of this. Yeah, yeah,
And I feel like even though Kelly An's

527
00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:45,000
not happy with how Johnny went home, she got the outcome she probably wanted

528
00:38:45,039 --> 00:38:49,119
to. I'm sure she doesn't mind
not having the power. Yeah, but

529
00:38:49,159 --> 00:38:52,079
don't you think she wanted to play
a role in that, like assigning the

530
00:38:52,119 --> 00:38:58,159
person to beat John A being able
to celebrate when she lost. I don't

531
00:38:58,159 --> 00:39:00,079
know. It just feels like Kelly
on was robbed even though John Ay went

532
00:39:00,119 --> 00:39:06,400
home Kelly and had didn't influence this. They didn't lose, they got injured.

533
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:09,039
It just seems sort of like a
like, not really a victory for

534
00:39:09,119 --> 00:39:15,519
Kelly in here. I can see
that, sure, all right, glad.

535
00:39:15,559 --> 00:39:19,519
I convinced you guys. Yep,
it's my debate training in high school.

536
00:39:19,599 --> 00:39:22,800

00:41:20,119 --> 00:41:24,719
we do about two hours ago.
Um, now that he is giving well,

also, uh, the Challenge has been

566
00:41:43,599 --> 00:41:50,280
nominated for two MTV Awards today,
first for Best Competition Reality Show, and

567
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:55,159
then Tory and Devin got nominated for
Best Reality Duo. Oh nice interesting?

568
00:41:55,280 --> 00:42:00,599
Yeah, so how embarrassing? How
embarrassing is it going to be when shows

569
00:42:00,599 --> 00:42:06,159
on MTV end up losing in the
category from from the network that I was

570
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:10,119
fucking a word show. Well,
that's why we need all of our listeners

571
00:42:10,159 --> 00:42:16,079
to go vote for the Challenge.
Competitors. Did you see Zach in your

572
00:42:16,079 --> 00:42:24,800
social media research the updates about Nelliet, I haven't seen anything directly about him.

573
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:30,800
I've seen a couple of the alumni
still gain mad that people are calling

574
00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:37,639
him out for like raising money.
Oh, I didn't see people they're mad

575
00:42:37,639 --> 00:42:42,000
at him for trying to raise money. Um, there is some so I

576
00:42:42,079 --> 00:42:46,840
started mostly because Devin retweeted like Nellie's
fundraiser and then people checking Matt Devin and

577
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:50,599
being like, hey, you just
won half a million dollars. How about

578
00:42:50,599 --> 00:42:52,840
instead of taking our money, like
you use your money to help your friend.

579
00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:59,079
And then it's kind of like trickled
down and people were hating on um

580
00:43:00,159 --> 00:43:01,880
Nellie as well, being kind of
like, oh, privilege, you're on

581
00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:06,800
TV and like you're asking for our
money. Well, that's really kind of

582
00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:10,239
a short sighted and rude approach to
this situation. They don't know what his

583
00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:15,000
financial situation's like, and no kidding, And I don't think that these people

584
00:43:15,079 --> 00:43:19,559
make a ton. I mean Nellie's
appearance fee, I don't know, what

585
00:43:19,599 --> 00:43:22,800
do you guys think thirty forty grand? Maybe maybe I don't know, maybe

586
00:43:23,039 --> 00:43:25,159
it's to a year or something.
So, I mean it's like he makes

587
00:43:25,159 --> 00:43:30,920
a decent living, but not I
would be very surprised if he's a millionaire,

588
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:34,280
you know. Yeah, and people
like him to do this, you

589
00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:37,880
know, pretty much around the clock
every year. It's not like they have

590
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:44,400
health insurance or anything. So yeah, and his injuries are very bad.

591
00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:47,760
It was not just a car crash
that he walked away from. He's had

592
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:52,360
like multiple surgeries, He's post pictures
on his Instagram. It looks gnarly.

593
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:58,960
I saw a picture of his foot
and it was pretty crazy. Yeah,

594
00:43:59,039 --> 00:44:02,639
really unfortunate. I feel bad for
Nellie. I don't know. And if

595
00:44:02,639 --> 00:44:07,400
you look at that go fund me. A lot of the challengers have donated

596
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:09,679
money. I don't know if Devin
has, but you can see a lot

597
00:44:09,679 --> 00:44:14,840
of Challengers names in that, so
they are helping him. Yeah, fuck

598
00:44:14,840 --> 00:44:19,039
you, people, calm down.
It is weird. People think if you're

599
00:44:19,039 --> 00:44:22,639
on TV, you're a millionaire no
matter what. Like, yeah, automatically

600
00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:25,400
millionaire if you're on TV. That's
not really how it works. No,

601
00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:31,280
I bet, I bet Nellie lives
a pretty modest lifestyle. Actually, me

602
00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:37,400
and Tim have met people have directed
movies that you could go watch right now,

603
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:40,719
could go to the store and buy
them, and they are they are

604
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:45,360
broke as a joke. They have
like regular day jobs. Yeah, and

605
00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:49,360
they like yeah, they like live
with roommates and shit like that, because

606
00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:52,039
this is their dream, you know, to make these movies and stuff.

607
00:44:52,039 --> 00:44:59,000
It's not for the money. Yeah, so interesting. Yeah, poor Nellie.

608
00:45:00,199 --> 00:45:02,559
Some prayers Nelly. Oh yeah,
I do feel bad for him.

609
00:45:02,599 --> 00:45:07,000
As much as I'm not a Nellie
fan, I don't I don't wish that

610
00:45:07,039 --> 00:45:10,480
type of injury on anybody is gonna
put his foot looks fucked up? Is

611
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:14,119
this what's gonna turn you around?
On? Nellie? You just had to

612
00:45:14,159 --> 00:45:15,719
get you just had to almost die
in a car crash where you're like,

613
00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:19,159
Okay, I'd miss him. I'd
miss him if he died, I wouldn't

614
00:45:19,159 --> 00:45:24,360
say turn around. Uh if he
comes back and you know how they did

615
00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:27,679
with TJ when they weren't sure if
he was going to come back to host

616
00:45:27,679 --> 00:45:31,079
after he got hurt, and Nelly
walks in and everybody's cheering, I'll give

617
00:45:31,119 --> 00:45:34,599
him some claps. I'd be like, oh, good, Nellie. Then

618
00:45:34,639 --> 00:45:37,199
will you walk and join the crowd? I'd be like, nell you're such

619
00:45:37,199 --> 00:45:39,159
a fucking idiot. Will you wipe
a tear from your eye? No,

620
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:43,599
because I would not know. You
won't get choked up by that about even

621
00:45:43,639 --> 00:45:49,239
a little bit. Yeah, heartless, heartless bitch, Cindy, are you

622
00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:52,280
listening? Heartless? Look at this
guy? Heartless? No complaion. It's

623
00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:54,719
funny because I was telling her about
all the movies I cried at the end

624
00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:59,719
of multiple times today, So oh, give us one. What's one of

625
00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:02,639
the movie as you cry? It
All Dogs Go to Heaven. Okay,

626
00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:06,000
No, I mean, I know
I've no of the movie. I don't

627
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:08,480
think i've ever seen it. It's
kind a very sad ending, Zach.

628
00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:14,320
Any any movies make you cry,
Zach, I'm very emotional, so everything

629
00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:20,599
makes me cry. Um trying to
think of one in particular. I got

630
00:46:20,599 --> 00:46:22,280
tear out at the end of Clerks
three. I know you were a big

631
00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:29,360
fan of that movie so much,
Yeah, Sidy says, pretty sure.

632
00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:32,320
He cries way more than I do. It seems like that's probably a fact.

633
00:46:32,599 --> 00:46:36,400
I cry it. Big Fish.
That's one of my crime movies if

634
00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:39,079
I want a good cry, big
Fish. And this is gonna make me

635
00:46:39,119 --> 00:46:43,639
sound really weird now because of the
Kevin Spacey stuff. But American Beauty,

636
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:47,199
it's actually like, if you can
overlook the Kevin Spacey being a rapist,

637
00:46:47,800 --> 00:47:00,199
it's actually a wonderful movie. Shaker
says La Bamba makes uh. Who was

638
00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:04,320
that Lou Diamond Phillips. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that guy sucks.

639
00:47:05,079 --> 00:47:08,360
What the Diamond Phillips is a national
treasure? You shut your horse series

640
00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:15,079
love Lu Diamond Phillips, terrible guns, the big hit. He was getting

641
00:47:15,079 --> 00:47:21,599
the big hit, Big Hit.
Wow, thirty two. Yeah. Gross,

642
00:47:21,679 --> 00:47:27,079
that movie sucked so hard. I
wouldn't go that far. I had

643
00:47:27,079 --> 00:47:34,559
a bunch of thematic issues with it, but sure a good times All Right,
