Hey, everybody, welcome to Challenge the podcast all about the Challenge as always.
I'm Brian sitting in Germantown Hills grooving on his camera and up in Minnesota
carl and San Diego questioning her place in the world, wishing she was living
in Australia. Everybody had over to Challenge pot dot Com. Joined the Facebook
group. Can also join our Patreon, which we will get into later.
Matt He says, I just love the music so much. That's why I
stopped changing it because this theme is a lot of fun. He Tim Marland
or whoever whoever's doing the notes. Very uh disjointed the episode this week.
Yeah, we else hated this episode as much as I did. Oh.
Carlin said she missed the end of the episode because her parents' DVR cut it
off. No, it wasn't even a DVR. So I'd log into Expinity
and usually they have the episodes up on the Exfinity on demand and it's not
even a DVR thing, it's just they're on demand that you can get anywhere.
And I played the episode and our mercenary walks out and gets introduced and
then it cuts out, and I thought that, like, okay, maybe
someone logged in and it kicked me out. No, it just straight up
cut out, like that's that is the end of the episode that they have
saved in there. It's supposed to be an hour and a half long episode
and they have like sixty three minutes of it. Yeah, even they know
nobody gives a shit about this season. Yeah, this is the worst season.
Terrible episode yep. So this episode's going to be very interesting because I
will do the first three quarters of it and then Tim's going to do the
last little bit, and we're gonna surprise the fuck out a Wolf because he
didn't watch it at all, Zach Zach. Zach Zach texted us and said
he's probably not gonna be able to be there because he was having sort of
a hiccup at work that was gonna take his attention. And the other two
we're bitching about how terrible this episode was and how nothing has changed since last
episode, and I was like, cool, I'm not gonna watch it because
I hadn't started it yet. Yeah. Really, when they when they don't
send people home, nothing changes and nobody should be surprised. Whaler spoilers and
nobody's been going home lately, and so it's like, this is the same
episode as last time because nobody went home. So the dynamics have not changed
at all. And we've done this several times in a row. It's very
frustrating. Yeah, it's super frustrating. I'm real over it. I swear
to god. If CT doesn't when next week, I I don't even know
what I'm gonna do. Yeah, it's crazy, know what I'm gonna do.
They say it a few times in this this episode that there's sixteen people
left. Yeah, we're thirteen episodes in and there's sixteen of these motherfuckers still
in the house. What's going on? Speaking of spoilers, people in our
fucking Facebook group spoiled sort of the outcome for me of this episode of the
show. People. This episode people, there's a twenty four hour ban from
discussing outcomes of the show, So posting hell, I hate it when nobody
goes home like that spoils it for me. And that made me infinitely less
interested. And then when these two said, oh, it's a fucking terrible
episode, I was like, oh, well, fuck it, I'm not
going to watch it. Well, to our credit, even if somebody went
home this episode. It doesn't change. We've already said that nobody's gone home
the last three, so it's this episode is the same as the last,
with the same exact players. Yep, but yeah, nothing changes. It's
like but still all of the all of the people in the Facebook group twenty
four hours. You can put a spoiler post in there, but you have
to say spoiler post and either put a bunch of dots so that it takes
it down all the way so you have to hit the load more, or
just don't put it on there and wait twenty four hours. Yeah, yes,
people, Yeah, y'all suck. It's against the rules. Nobody in
our group is following the rules because all of our admins have abandoned ship.
That. Yeah, I guess we can actually get into the episode now.
No, I guess this season does seem universally hated. Who is it?
John? John in the Champ says, I hated Jay the whole episode.
I did too. This season is making me hate people. I used to
like, what's going on with this Jay? This episode? Just Michelle last
episode and Jay this episode have just fucking nose dived. Yeah. So we
get back to the house and we immediately get a talking head from Jay going
on for like a solid minute about how he and Michelle are running things and
how Michelle just beat Kara and how they need to set themselves up to get
Kylin and Harassio out and just this whole monologue of shit, like I don't
want to hear your voice. I want to see your face. I want
to hear your voice. Get the fuck off my screen. You have done
shit this season. He's really high on his own supply, as they say,
Oh my god, they both are. They both are so hardcore and
it gets real obvious later on with him. Yeah, I think Jay's even
worse than Michelle and this. I mean, you can just tell Jay just
loves himself this season. He's just into himself. He thinks that he is
the fucking shit. Yeah, there's a lot of you beat Kara going around,
which again I know that, Tim, I know you said last episode
that you give this win counts for you. To me, It's still like
this one, the one against Darrell, the one against Laurel, like all
three of those. You put physical people in a fucking puzzle rather than in
the sand, and it just it taints it. It taints it. It's
not the same tint wolf. He said taint I said it multiple times twice.
It's good. I'm looking at this wolf. He's just strolling Facebook's.
He hasn't seen this episode. He's so uninterested. He just could not give
a ship. He's being responsible and working. Yeah, so it's just my
notes to say that I'm over this Jay and Michelle thing because it's a lot
of them going back and forth. We finally get a talking head from Raven
saying that she is no longer to be working with Jane Michelle, that she's
just fucking over it. She's tired of their bullshit, kind of like we
all are. Goose for says Jay is constantly live on TikTok, sucking his
own dick and trying to sling his merch. I wonder if that's literal.
Is he literally? Second? And did he get the the removing of the
rib thing, Marilyn the rumor that when viral around the country when we were
in like grade school, before viral was even a than Seriously, how did
we all know that everybody know that Paul from The Wonder Years got his rib
removed? Yeah? John wants to know if this elimination was meant for bananas.
I have some thoughts on that. We'll get to that as they get
into the Okay, into the arena, we'll talk to it later. Then
we get our first scene of Olivia, first scene of this this episode of
Olivia talking shit about her relationship with Horacio and how he is. You know,
he doesn't have her back and he doesn't talk to her talking about all
of that to someone else and not to him. This is the second episode.
Again, it's this is groundhog Day. These fucking episodes. We have
to hear Olivia for the third episode of a row say that Jay is a
bad friend. In this episode, she does this like six times. I
know, it's just constant, and almost every single one of those times,
they like skew the camera just slightly and you can see Harassio like within twenty
feet of heart. Yeah, you're like, I it's weird. We're all
in high school. It's just turn over your shoulder, be like hey,
Rassio. But yeah, we not talking to me. Yeah, this is
middle school weird shit. We like, I used to like Olivia too,
and now I've gotta deal with this for three episodes. Yeah, Jay's a
bad friend. Shit just fucking go talk to him or don't like who cares?
But Hirasio Jay is a friend or whatever? Who cares? Who cares
about any these people? It's all just apparently we do. We do a
podcast about it. I guess I'm just so sick of this ship. This
is the worst season. This season is terrible. Yeah, it is terrible.
Yeah, there's just there's a bunch of other bullshit, like Maurice is
telling Hirasia that he needs to break out of a shell because he's so quiet
even with her, which I agree. I this season is making me hate
Horassio because he's so fucking quiet about everything. He's not fun to watch.
No, he's and I think he's playing the role too of this like just
super positive guy dock Man. Yeah, it's just like it seems inauthentic,
it seems weird. Yeah, when he gets called out later and he does,
oh, well, I mean I think I should have gone, no
you don't. Yeah, oh and thank you for throwing me in guys,
I deserve Oh fuck off Rasio. Just yeah, he does feel like he's
playing a part. It's just it's awful. We Kylon complaining again about how
the social environment is difficult. He's having trouble navigating it. I mean,
that's kind of the point of the challenge. I feel like everybody has issues
navigating the social environment, regardless of who they are or whether they have any
anything on the spectrum. It doesn't matter if they all have issues with it.
Yeah, and then we get to the challenge. How uh. This
challenge is called getting tanked, which I did kind of I found kind of
funny. I like it when they get a little clever with the they've been
lazy lately. I like this one too. Yep. So this challenge is
instead of being played on top of a semi, uh, it is played
inside and on top of a tanker, so a semi with a big tank
behind it, rather than the typical shipping container. Uh. In the container
in the tank, it's like, I don't know, probably two thirds filled
with water. You have all of the team it's teams of four, and
you have three of the four players inside the tank collecting plaques that have letters
on them, and you have one person on top of the tank collecting the
letters from the players from the inside and putting them on the end of the
tanker to spell out the words challenge champion and whoever does its fastest wins.
This would have been fun to be on the inside of this tanker truck.
It would have been a lot of fun to do. I would pay to
do this, like at a theme park of a month. Yeah, thats
been a lot of fun to do. Yeah, the tanker truck is driving
and kind of like go inside to side, and so you're, you know,
flopping around inside this tanker truck and you could. I noticed that they
all had on rather than just letting them like swim around, they all had
on harnesses to keep them above the water level. Yeah that makes sense though.
Yeah, I just I when I first saw this, it was like,
this feels like MTV being so safe with their with their players. And
then I saw the harnesses. Okay, cool, they do actually care if
these people get hurt. What if it was filled with margarita. Oh that'd
be great. Yeah, yeah, kind of gross, but it would be
great. Nope, I just drink it as long as I'm the first one
in there. The alcohol kills germs, that's how it works. That's fine.
Yeah, they drinking it and refill it out between or not. Who
cares. I still drink it. You guys watched Last Man on Earth.
He had a Margarita pool. It'st I wouldn't mind having Margarita pool. That
would become a nice all right. So first team, I noticed that they
were doing like they had people. The people inside were handing out like full
stacks of letters, like four or five at a time, so they were
going real fast. That team had j on it. The second right,
Yeah, that team had j on it. The second team, Harasio was
paired with three people from the Jay and Michelle alliance who all want to get
him out, who spend this entire episode talking about how they want to get
him out. So they threw the fucking challenge like one hundred percent through this
challenge. They would hand him one thing at a time, and they were
by far and above the losers of this challenge. Do we think Harasio really
had no idea that this was happening. I mean, he sure has fuck
acted like it even at the end. Yeah, that John is asking the
same question. I just asked, how did he not know? Because it's
this seems obvious to me. They did so poorly, and it was all
because the letters weren't being thrown out like he should have known. This was
this should have been super easy. Well, he had Asof on the team,
and Osof was chalking it up to, oh, well I just can't
spell because I don't English isn't my first language. Yeah. But like at
the end when they were interviewing the team and Harassu was telling, oh,
well, you know, we had this whole plan. The plan just kind
of went to shit, And you can see the look on Michelle's face where
she like she's trying not to smile, yeah, when she's like, oh,
yeah, I just went to shit. Yeah, you threw the fucking
challenge. Yeah, the smile was more like, how does he not understand
what happened? Just now? Very weird. Yeah, Harassi is not made
to do this game. I think he's just like an athletic guy. And
that's kind of all all Harassio is. To be honest, Yes, John
ossif does suck ass, I don't know that. I'd go as far as
I want to want his harness to break in the tech, but he does
suck ass. I don't want him. I don't want him dead. But
uh, that's right, that's the best thing. Third team did. They
did okay, and then fourth Team just absolutely smashed it. Ultimately, we
get down to the end and TJ says, well, we had two teams
that were separated by two seconds because we don't have Zach here this week.
Who thinks that's a lie? Always, always alive, Always. I love
Zach for his his naivety on thinking that the the challenge God's will just not
screw with the numbers or screw with the game. They absolutely do, Like
there's there's no way in hell that they don't screw with that. Yeah.
Swannee brings up Ed. I did like Ed in this competition. I like
that he's sort of is shining a little bit. He might be the one
person that I like him the same as other times I've seen it. Yeah,
because they're not showing him too much, and every time they do show
him, he's still his fun, quirky, like entertaining self. Yeah.
He hasn't been too over the top in really shitty ways. No, he's
not been involved in weird child drama. Yeah, and I think that's part,
like this is all B level cast that we should just see in little
bitty snippets. Yeah, and we see him too much. It's like,
well, I don't like him anymore. Yep, Ed is still a minor
character. I like that. Yeah, Goose for says, did you see
the winning team used an upside down W instead of an M? No?
I did not notice that. I don't know. I was also only kind
of half paying attention because I was trying to take notes and I was just
so fucking over this episode. So yeah, so really the winning team may
not have actually won. Yeah. So ultimately the winning team is Olivia,
Ed, Corey, and Berna, and they come out saying Corey says,
we're gonna make a power move, like they're all super excited. We get
a quick talking head of Mariah saying that they better not fucking throw James in
or I'm gonna be really mad. This is super out of left field.
This hasn't been brought up at all this episode. Like I legitimately completely forgot
that James is even in the show. Yeah, if we just get this,
like, where where did that come from? I know, I swear.
I think production plays these games now because they realize we are bored as
fuck. It is one alliance that's making the all every week because nobody ever
gets home. It's the same fucking thing every time, and so they like
throwing this stuff that's like, oh, maybe they're gonna shake it up.
They like make us question it for a second, but it never never works
out. No, it doesn't. And Corey this week and it still didn't.
Yeah, So Corey throwing in Harassio or saying Rossio's name is not a
power move. And in fact, that was the whole thing was orchestrated by
the Alliance to lose to do that. So it's not this is not a
Corey move and it's not a power move. It's just sort of how the
game happened. And I don't like Corey taking a power move. Would have
been throwing in j Yeah, yeah, shaking it up Jay or Immanuel,
that would have been a power move, go against the expectations of what they're
supposed to be doing. A power move is not throwing in the same people
that you've been trying to throw in every episode. Yeah, in accordance with
what the Alliance tells you to do. This is just the Alliance working its
magic. Corey said the name, but he didn't like make the decision.
Yeah. Uh, Corey does say like he turns to Olivia when he's getting
ready to say Hirasio's name. He says, sorry, Olivia, I know
you're not gonna like this, and she doesn't actually say anything. The only
response that she has to Hirasio's name getting thrown out there to her team is
there's no way I'm going to be able to sway you guys's boats is there
and they're like no. And then when his name gets set out to the
rest of the rest of the group, she goes, I'm sorry, Horatio.
I didn't have I couldn't do anything. You didn't actually try. And
we've already had talking heads and like seen you talking with other people about how
you no longer have his back because you don't think he has yours even though
you haven't actually talked to him to find out if he does. Yeah.
Yeah, Olivia put up no fight here at all. She didn't try to
advocate for put up more of a fight. Yeah, after this was all
like, Kyland then calls out after Corey announces that they're doing uh harazio.
Kylon does an offhanded colds oh, because you're scared, and Corey lets loose.
What do you mean I'm scared? This doesn't scare. This is the
bulls he has moved that we've done all season. No, man, it
was just starting to like Corey again too. And then he pulls this ship.
That's the bravest thing anyone's done this game. Oh fuck off man.
Yeah, he didn't do anything. He said a name. It was Oh
the one thing I wrote this down because I could not believe that he said
this. So Corey while in there in his talking head or no to the
rest of the group, I don't know. In this whole scene, Corey
mentions that he thinks Harasi is one of the best players to ever play this
game. Yeah the fuck planet is he on? Based on one season where
he didn't win it. Yeah, one season where he didn't win it in
a second season where both of them. He has no social game, he
has no political game. He's decent at the at the physical stuff, but
you don't get along on just that. Like, is Corey fucking high?
Yeah, well, I think they're worried about him in a final, but
yeah, to say he could do the physical shit, but we haven't seen
him do a puzzle. We haven't seen him like, yeah, I'm with
you, No, I'm totally with you, totally with you, And we've
seen him freak out if he loses something. So like, if they do
a final where they get paired, where they've done it, where they switch
up the pairs every section of the final, if he loses one of those
sections, is he going to start bawling like he did with the last season.
Yeah, it is funny. Like I feel the same way about Rassio.
I really really liked him last season. I was excited to see him
back, and now it's just like, oh, fuck Rassio. He's just
at best, he's boring at work. At worst, he's like this authentic
like I don't even know how to describe him, like he's just yeah,
he's just I don't like him. Brian. Brian in the chat room said
that Corey doubled down on all of his comments on Twitter. Oh how good
Rao is? Are you kidding? I'm sure that Horasio can can compete physically
manifinal next week. I'm glad. I'm we get to see it, all
right, we'll see it next week. But yeah, it's I I agree,
he's not a contender in any other way. He's not good socially.
He doesn't really have people that you know, have his back. I mean,
yeah, and I wouldn't put him say one of the best ever.
No, No, in order to be one of the best ever, you
have to be a Johnny Banana is a wes a ct A car like you
have to He's been heard. You have to have some wins. You have
to have some wins, but you also have to have the political and social
side of this, like that is a huge part of this game. Yeah,
they hit, just don't understand. So they go back to the house
and we just get a bunch of talk. Like it starts out, it's
a solid, like three or four minutes of nothing, but people talk about
how they want to put Kyland, and just everybody talk about how they want
to put Kyland. And then we get a shot of Kylan talking about how
he wants to get in j and they start rating, they start counting the
numbers to get to put in Jay, and they are pretty goddamn close.
They're very close. Yeah, they Zara goes and talks to James, because
James is supposed to be on the alliance that's against Jay. Sara goes and
talks to James and says, we have a legitimate shot to get Jay in,
but you have to side with us. You have to put your vote
in with us. You can't put you're voting with the other team, and
you cannot tell Mariah in this stupid little bitch turns around and immediately goes and
tells fucking Mariah. Zara has a really funny comment about how he has to
go talk to the boss. Yeah, just pure amateur hour over here.
It's just we see this every season. These rookies don't know what they're doing.
They just play into the people that have done it before. Yeah,
in this case. Also, it's also really interesting to see the dynamic between
Mariah and James switch because it was very like he was the power player in
that dynamic for a while, and now it seems to be that she's the
power player because her alliance is now protecting him because he's apparently now part of
the US alliance, right a few times. Yeah, that's the weird thing,
and this is how alliances work. Like none of us should be surprised
by that. That you have your core and then you have sort of these
like members on the fringes who are sort of they'll vote with you, but
they're gonna be cut immediately. And like, of course that's James and Colleen
and all these people, and they know that now, and even knowing that
they're not going to change it up. Well, I don't know how these
people didn't know it ahead of time, Like you, you aren't like best
friends with these people. Of course they're going to take their outside of this
game best friends. Yeah over you, yep um. But yeah, it's
just it's really dumb. But that's when we start getting Jay. Jay hears
that his name has been thrown out by Kyland because of this whole shit show,
and he goes and sits down with Kyland and oh my god, what
was this? Fucking loses his goddamn mind. Well, for you should watch
that just this few minutes. It's bizarrely, he thinks that he is the
biggest, baddest fucking dude out there, and he walks in like, so
I hear you want to throw my name down there. I love this,
I love this, I love this confrontation ship. I'm in. Let's do
it. Fuck off, man, I'll take you down. Let's let's do
this. Like he gets real fucking big and bad about it. But he
also there's a lot of talk. He throws out that he's bored and how
he wants to make big moves and then throws out the game has finally started.
What do you mean it's just starting? So yeah, it's one of
those things people say because it sounds cool, but it doesn't so it doesn't
mean anything. Yeah, Okay, Jay, when we do nominations, you
you throw yourself in. Yeah. And then when it comes time for the
elimination, I will tell TJ no, no, no Champ, no nothing,
just me versus Jay, send one of us home. Let's do it,
Jay, And I bet Jay, But I don't own you know,
let's I don't want to do that. Yeah, he is an all taught
guy. Yeah, he's not more yeah Jay, And maybe it's just because
Jay is more featured, but he is really not home what. I don't
know if he's trying to play a villain or just trying to get more airtime
or whatever. But his talking heads bother me. His like behavior in the
house bothers me. I don't like how we talked to Kyland here. I
just don't. Yeah, I'm over Jay. I mean he at one point
in time, just before this, he talks to Nourice because Nourice finally she
says that she finally realizes that she's a pawn, that she's being played as
a pawn by Michelle and Jay, that they're not actually equals, that she's
underneath them in this alliance, and he just she brings it up to him
and it's kind of like, why why are you calling out Kyland because you
know that Kyland and Horasio are my two big people, Like what is going
on here? And he just gaslights the ever living shit out of her.
I got a lot of trouble watching that episode, but partly I was like,
this is like, this is fucking awful. I can't deal with your
bullshit. Was this the one that then in his talking hand he said something
about like, oh, Nurice, like she'll she'll say whatever she wants,
but she's always gonna vote the way I tell her to or something. Yeah,
it was just like, dude, you look so shitty, Like everything
you're doing looks shitty. I mean it really. It kind of harkens back
to like FESSI in his second season, where he was doing all of this
shit and saying all of this bullshit and then like, I guarantee you that
Jay's coming out of this episod out of this season, like I'm fucking badass.
This season was fucking great. Everybody's gonna fucking love me, And now
that he's getting all this hate what what what do you mean? I guarantee
you that's what's going on. Yeah, he's not the type he's and Festi's
this way too. Like they they sort of seem like a villain, but
if you ask them to play a villain, they wouldn't do a very good
job of it, because I think they want They both really want to be
liked, and both are sort of confused as to why they're not. Yeah,
we like We get another another scene of Olivia talking shit about Rassio behind
his back, and this time it's to Nourice and Lurice. He kind of
he talks to her and talks to Nouricse later and is like, no,
Olivia would never talk shit about me. Olivia like, I have her back,
she has mine, and he's kind of like, I don't know about
that, but even that's weird that he would think that without having talked to
her. Why are these people not talking to each other. We don't know
the extent to which they are just mute to each other, but are they
really just like not saying anything to each other. I mean, that's that's
how it looks, That's how it feels like coming through this TV. It
feels like they have been in this house for our however many weeks, and
I've literally not said a single fucking word to each other since they got there.
Yeah, and that is incredibly unusual. Like if I was in a
house with sixteen people, I would probably talk to every single one of them
almost every day, right, just sort of in passing. Just pass me
the salt, hand me a towel, like whatever it is that you say
to people when you're living with them. Yeah, it's so bizarre, especially
if it's someone who you not only are friends with out of this show,
but you spent all of last season as their ride or die. Yeah,
Like, how are you not saying anything to each other? Yeah, it's
very weird, very bizarre. Let me have club night. It was very
helpful, Thank you. Apparently the club is in the basement of the house.
Oh there. It shows scenes of like a city I don't think they're
in. I don't think anywhere to where that city is, and maybe like
on the outskirts of it. From what I've heard, it's it's just a
it's in the basement of the house. I mean, I'm sure that cuts
way down on the budget. Yeah. Well, you know, we never
see anybody else in those balls, you know, the bars, other than
the players these days. Yeah, that's a good way to do it.
Keep those COVID rates down, keep cover rates down, keep the players contained,
I guess. But that would be weird to be partying like that with
just a few other people. And you know what I mean, I guess
they get used to it. We get caught. All the parties we had
at your apartment, it was always the same people, true, so it
wasn't my life too. All of our parties are always the same people.
It's fun though, good times fun. I know. None of them are
like us, getting out and like going full club and house music, like
dancing on a dance floor though, and that seems to happen pretty often in
these shows, which it's a little weird. Yeah, that's the weird part
to me. Yeah, normally it's just like twenty of us sitting around in
the house, draking beers and talking for a few hours, listening to music
whatever. Yeah, it's when there's sixteen of you in a big club and
eight of you or on the dance floor. It's like, yeah, it's
weird. She's never been to a Bryce Moss Avenue party. I have not
had music thumping you can hear from blocks away. Please show up a couple
of times, be like, hey, turn it down. We used to
have a vomit contests off off the deck. No wonder you like the gross
episodes? Love It Love It started early, of course, So in the
club, we get Colleen talking to Jay trying to kind of feel out where
her placement is in this alliance, saying that she doesn't want to be part
of this alliance if she's at the very bottom, but she just needs to
not say that. She just needs to to know that and do other things,
but not say that to the person running the alliance. Yeah, it
was very weird. We get Olivia talking to another person, uh oh,
talking to I think it was Jay, and in the shot of her talking
to Jay about Horasio, Horasio is literally like ten feet behind her. Yeah,
really weird, really awkward, so bizarre. Yeah, and then then
Harassio approaches her and finally he's finally just like, okay, let's talk.
Let's just go talk. Yeah, and she kind of has this like,
oh, I don't know if I want to talk to you look on her
face like, yeah, you've been bitching about this non stop and now you
don't want to talk to him. Yeah, And then that weird. So
then we get Olivia and Harassio talking, and to be honest, I don't
remember anything that they said. I truly don't care. But this is when
I started looking at Harassio like, oh, he's a little weir weird too.
I think he's a little socially weird. I wonder if he's got a
little autism over something like Kylin, because he's a little out of sorts.
He seemed super uncomfortable. He said weird things. This conversation was weird.
It was weird, like he yeah, it was basically just him saying that
he has her back no matter what, like it doesn't matter who's who says
her name, he will always fight for her to not be down there.
He will always fight for her and be on her side. And it was
just it was odd. She doesn't seem to be convinced by the end of
it, though, she still seems to have this like I don't think you're
on my side. Look, but yeah, well, I don't think he
is. I I don't know what he's doing, but I don't think even
he knows what he's doing. He's just he's just sort of there. I
remember you said last episode to somebody else like she's my number one. I
would never say her name. Yeah, I think he is still on her
side. I think she is way far away from his. Yeah. And
also the term number one has lost all meeting on this show because they even
say outright like, oh, she's one of my number ones. He's one
of my number one, Like, that's not you can't have multiples. That's
some of his works. There's one one number one. Yeah. Do you
think that's it's a guy versus girl thing too, because like me and Tim,
we'd be like we just go in and be like, oh, she's
my friend, of course, just got my back. I mean like we
don't even talk about it. Yes, whereas the girls, like I need
told every morning when I wake up, your best friends, Carl Carlin,
let's get a little stink face on about that one. No, I don't.
I don't think that it's a guy versus girl thing because if you think
back into previous seasons like Johnny and West consistently use I have my number one
spot. If this person goes home, that spot is now open, or
if this thing happens, that spot is now available. They use that all
the time. I think in this season we see it more of like the
girls needing to be consistently told, like, oh am I here number one?
Am I in that spot? But I don't think it's a guy versus
girlfriend. I think it's just this season that it feels like it, like
if the three of us went on the show. I don't imagine Carl would
be that way. Looking at the girls that are on this show, I
do feel like they need to be babied. Oh my god. Every day
they all need like you know, they wake up their number one is by
their bedside, Hello, number one. Yeah, welcome to Tuesday. Don't
forget we're number ones. Like that, they need that when they wake up.
There are a few scenes of Berna saying, like, you know that
we keep talking to veriou different people and trying to like she talks to to
Colleen at one point in time, she's like, you know, you should
really side with the people who love you like we love you, like this
is a game. Why is that the word that you're using in this game.
Yeah, it's just it's so bizarre. Yeah, I mean, this
is this this season is amateur hour, and we're seeing we're like fucking awful.
There's signs of it everywhere, from like even the drama is boring of
like you're not my friend anymore, dramas like who gives a shit about that?
Like the gameplay is weird and amateur It's just like, this is a
season that's very difficult to watch. They're dumbing down all of the they're they're
watering down. Not dumbing down, they're watering down all of the eliminations.
Like if this for a normal season and we had gotten this far in and
had not had a hall brawl or a pole wrestle or a balls in,
we don't be sitting here like we are with this one, going what the
fuck is going on? Yep, I blame every sea. Every problem this
season has is production's fault. Every every scene is every part of it.
Even though cast that I hate is production's fault for making me hate them.
Yeah, format's not good this season. There's a lot of problems. It's
just it's even because even if we took if we took this cast all right,
and we put a uh like the seasons where it's like you have to
have a skull in order to make it into the final. Yeah. Yeah,
that format would work so much better. Fuck yeah, because they would
rip each other apart because everybody's so fucking insecure. All of the alliances would
have been done within the first like three weeks because they wouldn't have been able
to figure their shit out. Yep, like, oh god, it would
That would have been so much better. Yes, there are so many things
they could have done that would have made this better. Yeah. Stop having
episodes where nobody goes home. Yeah, like, whatever you have to do
in the game format, I don't really care what it is to bring the
champs back and also have somebody go home, like they have to do that.
They have had a chance, like, yeah, you know, if
they had to do it where they had to go down into the sand in
order to get a skull or whatever to be able to make it to the
final, they could have really played that up in chaos. They could have
said, Okay, because this is chaos, we're gonna like it would instead
of it being only like eight competitors long, it's gonna be ten competitors long,
and you have ten slots to go down into the sand. There are
only ten slots to go down into the sand, and you have to beat
a champion in order to get your spot in the final. Yeah, yep,
something like that. Yeah, I mean it could have been somebody.
They could have done something really fun with that, like it. I know
it's really frustrating, but I feel the same way. I just want to
shake this season and the producers like, what the fuck are you thinking?
This is the every worst idea imaginable all combined. I don't understand what was
the first phase? Control? Is that what it was? Sure, give
us a ship. Why do we even need these phases? I'm saying that
that phase, if you want to go to make it to the final,
you have to go against the champion to get a skull. There's only ten
slots available. Ten people get skulls. Guess what, we're in the chaos
phase. No more champions. You want a skull, you have to steal
it from somebody who already asked, Oh, yeah, there you go.
That's the way to do it, Like on the Island with the keys.
Yeah, yeah, you have ten weeks to get the keys. You then
have six weeks to steal the keys, right, and then you have six
weeks to keep the keys. Yeah, and then you got to watch everybody
else do the final. If you don't have your key, you're done.
You just watch them. Yeah, say much better. We just made this
show, dude, I'm telling you, it wouldn't take much to really improve
this. It's like they it's like they purposely fucked it up every time.
I mean, they get the champs that we love, but they give them
shitty games, Like what's going on? Like, how could they have not
just given them good games? I don't know, right, I don't get
would. Yeah, this season, these last few episodesdes would not have been
as bad if they had given the champions real competitions. One, because the
season is so bad, that's all we wait for is the champs to come
there, like that's that's all we give a shit about. And then they
come out and it's like, oh, they don't get to touch each other.
They're just gonna be fucking trying to catch shit on fire with their feet.
Who gives a shit? The episode with Jordan like that, yeah,
will be the epitome of this entire fucking season. Even though they gotten like
they got stopped when they started wrestling, they get it started there, they
were told that they can't do that. Even then, he's still it was
still a more physical like you have to be with this person. You have
to do it in person, like you are actually competing against them. You're
not playing two separate games at the same time. Yeah, these race games,
these have to stop. They need to be like against each other.
Yeah, like you said, like a ball's in like a hall brawl,
pull wrestle. Yes, Casey's pull wrestle maybe the only decent elimination this whole
season. Did she do a pull wrestle? She did do a poll wrestle.
Yeah, And Jordan's running thing was pretty good, and I think it
was I think Jordan's was so good because one because it was Jordan, and
because it was the very first one and because Kieren went home. Yeah,
and even Devon's was good. Like Devin did the puzzle, but Devin is
Devin, Like we expect him to do a puzzle. That is what he
is known for. That's what we want to see him competing in. Yep,
and we really but we also see the difference between like the Vets that
we love. There's something completely indescribable about them. But like when they're on
our screen, like we are engaged, we want to hear that, we
want to see them do stuff. And then when like James is on the
screen, it's like, I just don't give a ship, Like who's this
fucking guy? Get him out? And it's maybe I just need to get
known better. I don't know, but they just need better people, more
interesting, Yeah, players that are engaging and funny. Yeah. I was
trying to hold out hope at the beginning of the season that having a bunch
of newbies, like having a bunch of not veteran players, would be a
lot of fun because we'd finally be able to like pick some new people.
But god, it just every week, every week it has gone farther down
that drain, and it has proven even more as to why they need to
have at least a handful of vet Vets on the team or on the show,
because even with just that handful, even though we know that at least
one or two of them are going to go home immediately or very quickly because
all the new people are gonna try and get them out, it always switches.
They are always able to keep some vets until the end, and it
just makes the gameplay so much better. Yeah, yep, and politics more
fun to watch, makes the bullshit more fun to watch. They yep.
It's even very bizarre that they didn't like this. It's called battle for a
New Champion. Yeah, they should have done a team's thing or something and
had like six new champions this season, you know what I mean. And
they said they're having one, not even one man and one woman, like
all this for one new champion. Yeah, it's we're all pretty sure that
next season is going to be the final MTV season. Like it's a little
strange. Yeah, this whole thing is weird. It's just like every decision
is like, what's why did you make that decision? It's very odd.
So we're back at the house after club night. The other Alliance has finally
kind of come to the realization, Oh, this has been I did this
earlier, the whole James and Mariah and from him telling her and this was
Jay freaking out. Oh so if we're nominations, so yeah, this is
where Horassio comes in. It's like, yeah, I mean I deserve being
to be put down there, thanks for voting me in, guys, okay,
and Jay comes in acting like the big bad like I'm gonna I'm king
shit, this is my playground, Like I got this. He looks so
silently smugg didn't. He just looks so fucking smug, sitting there like a
little smack that off look off his face. Hard to watch, hard to
watch. Yeah, Kylin does bring up a very good point because Jay starts
it off kind of saying, you know, we've only had my name and
Kylin's name thrown out here, and Kylin goes, hold up, there aren't
just two guys who were in this, like, there are five of us
down here. Why are we the only two names that y'all are willing to
throw out that? Like, there are five five, not just us two,
Which makes for and it makes her a very interesting not very interesting,
It makes very slightly more interesting nomination. They started off and the first few,
it's what like four immediately go for Jay yep, and it's kind of
like, oh, maybe we'll actually get some payoff this episode. Again,
MTV just fucking with us. I don't buy this shit for a split second
anymore. I mean, I had a glimmer of hope, and then I
saw Nourice's faces, like, well that was bullshit. Then Nourse is up
and she is obviously very pained as to what she has to do because it's
either she has to vote for her boyfriend's best friend or she has to vote
for the head of her alliance, and she ends up not doing either,
very brave and throwing it on a manual. Yeah, very brave, terrace,
very brave and Jay, and Jay's talking head said something like, oh,
Seed, Nurie is never gonna help vote for me like I win,
or like it's like she didn't vote for the other guy, like she just
she just threw it away. And that's one of those things where like there's
the possibility that if Maurice had actually voted for j then they would have had
five votes for him, and it would have either gone five votes for right,
because there's only five other people five for anyway, it could have actually
gone to him. Like yeah, I didn't that math, but yeah,
she was that deciding factor. I think there are what they're sixteen, yeah,
four groups of four. Yeah, but then she did the weakest,
the weakest possible thing, yea, right, yep, so there are four
votes in she votes for Emmanuel, there are seven votes left. If she
had voted for UH for J that it would have been five for J and
that would have potentially swung James and Colleen back over to the J side,
because then they could have been like, oh well, I mean that's who's
going mm hmmm, like it had it had some real potential. But she
fucked it all up. It did, and it's like it frustrates me that,
Yeah, her her choice was nothing. It sort of is like Nurie
A or B, like this is your chance to shine. You can make
a decision, and her decision is I'm not going to make a decision,
which is the same as siding with JA. Like you know, then,
like I don't even know what I just don't know. I just don't know
what nouris is doing. Stupid move on her part, I think. Well,
so Stephanie in the chat room brings up that Nourice had said earlier that
burning her vote would actually be a vote against Kayland. Yeah that's what Yeah,
but the next that's always what burning a vote is, unless you're burning
a vote on Leroy. Yeah, so then just do it, right if
if that's what it's doing just actually ate it, actually say I am against
Kyland, I am with Jay and instead it's like everybody knows it. It's
it's the weakest possible move. Like when they say weak move, this is
what they mean. This is Maurice not committing because she doesn't have to.
There's nothing on the line, so she's just not gonna do it. But
it's weak. It's it's a week as hell. It just is. Yeah.
I think if she had been further at the end of the line of
people voting for Kyland, she would have voted for Kyland. But because she
was going to be the first vote for Kyland, that's why she didn't do
it. Yeah, well, Crime River, you gotta do something in this
game. You gotta play this game. Well you look on your face there
for a minute, I was watching my cat. Are you gonna watch this
episode after it's more important than us? No? No, never gonna watch
this episode. No, you're not missing. But yeah, ultimately it ends
up being Kyland who gets voted in because it's the same fucking people you get
voted in ever goddamn episode, which of course is MTV, Like did they
not think of this? What's going on? Yeah? Yeah, all right,
is this where I get to shine? This is this is Wolfy cat
Man a perfect leading. That was Wes. That was not him. Wait
do you have the do you have the other one? Now it's a necklace.
There you go, so elimination. Uh TJ says to be the best,
you have to be the best. Let's bring out our champion, and
Brad runs out. This is supposed to be bananas, right? Is everybody
on the same page here, wolf You didn't? Yeah, I mean that's
that's what everybody has said, right, yeah. This is also this is
also where my TV just stop. Okay, okay, so you didn't see
that. Okay, I think I got that. I got the numbers of
I got his record, which is he's been on twelve seasons, he has
gone to five finals and he's won once. Yeah, and that was cutthroat
way back in the day. Yes, very excited to see Brad. I
love Brad. I'm always excited to see Brad. Don't get me wrong.
Unbelieve big eyes. Oh man, they were they were on display today.
Yes, but see, this is the shit that I missed. And not
only that, I think it gets more and more clear to me every all
the time that this was that he's that he was flowing in at the last
second, because first of all, he looks tired of shit. He looks
fucking torn up. Yeah, like big like purple bags under his eyes and
stuff like. He just looks he just looks like he's been through it,
probably because he's been traveling for twenty hours straight. When he got there and
he said a few things, he was like, uh, he said like,
oh, it's this is a good elimination to do a little on the
smaller side, which makes me think he's like not all beefed up and royed
it out. And he said something about like, uh, endurance isn't He's
like, endurance is something I'm known for. It's not something I'm really good
at anymore. But I'm lighter than I usually am and I'm a good climber,
so I'll do okay with this one. But you see it, Like
the way he said was like I'm not prepared to be here, but I'm
just gonna try my best sort of That's what it seemed to be saying to
me. But did you even get like the name of the thing or the
name of the No, I literally did. That's all that I got o
get what the name of the elimination was. I didn't get. I didn't
even realize there were towers in it until I saw some clips on Instagram.
Okay, so there were towers on it. Chatroom. You'll have to help
me out. I forget what the name of this thing is called. But
basically, you start at the top of this scrawl, yeah, something like
that. You start at the top of this tower. There's like these little
shoots that you have to move to the side to get down to the bottom.
You take like a big, like a yoga exercise ball up to the
very top and then you drop it down a shoot. You have to do
that ten times. You have to stack these yoga balls in order from ten
to one or whatever. So that's the game, and they play it and
Brad loses, and that's the end. I don't know, not much to
say. Who does he pick to go in? You didn't yeah, oh
yeah, yeah. Brad pulled the thing out. He went against Kyland.
Brad pulled the hammer, went against Kyland. They did this thing. Kyland
kind of beat the shit out of him. I think, I think,
I think Brad had six or seven balls and Kyle got the ten. Oh
so it like wasn't close stomped. Yeah, Brad kind of got his his
ass kicked. Kyland was really really fast. Brad's just old. Brad's my
age, you know, he's like forty two or some shit, forty three.
He's just old. I don't think he was prepared. And uh,
yeah, you're you're forty four. Don't be trying to shave years off of
Brad's a year two younger the way Brad's a year too younger. Yeah,
I think Brad. But still Brad's in his forties. I mean he's got
to be. But yeah, so I don't know if there's not much less
to say. Corey was talking, was saying, how good Kyland is it
this game because there's like these slats that you had to move out of the
way, and Kyland moved two at a time instead of one at a time.
Corey was very concerned about this. He's like, that's why I know
Kylin's gonna be a good player. He figures out how to do these things
fast. Like okay, all right, whatever you say, Corey. But
yeah, it's kind of is Corey the news Josey, I see him,
I can see the comparisons. Yeah, yeah, self important yea where he's
like, you have to be really smart for this game, like me with
my agility. Yeah, this is very swim yet, so I don't know
if I'm gonna have to have a panic attack watching him swim. Yeah.
But they both they both say very obvious things, but in a way like
like they think that they're profound, you know, like Nelson, Yeah,
kind of like Nelson. Is that too? Yeah, I think Nelson seems
to be a little bit more endearing. But yeah, yeah, Corey smug.
I hate smug miss Yeah, Jose was smug. Yeah, Jay was
smug on the earlier this episode. I hate smug Pee, Like it's gotta
be the worst, the worst sort of traits. I really hope that CT
pulls Jay's name or pulls it, gets him down there. I really hope
that CT pulls the chaos mace or just gets to choose regardless of whether there's
a chaos mace or not, because he's bringing it in. I hope that
he so. Yeah, but I hope that he gets the chaos mace and
calls Jay down when Jay thinks that he's sitting pretty and then just beats the
ever living shit out of him. Yeah, that's what I hope for next
episode, you're gonna earn his son. I do too, But let me
let me qualify that a little bit. If that's what happens the next episode,
I'll be fine with that, unless they do it daily that ends up
not mattering because CT comes out with the mace. Then I'm gonna be pissed
if we have to watch a shitty daily that means nothing them like going against
these nominations, which will mean nothing, and then CT just gets to pick
somebody skip all that Car had to do the draw, and she was the
last female mercenary, so I'm gonna assume CT is going to too. But
again, since Zach is not here, I'm pretty sure they load up the
maces these last ones. Yeah, we've seen the preview of CT holding the
base, so yeah, it's yeah, but he's he looks like he's walking
in with the mace, So I feel like, yeah, I don't know,
but it would just seem weird that they would do it for the men
and not for the women. Yet, but I wonder if it was Bananas.
Right, Let's say, let's say Brad does not exist in this and
it's Bananas who would be the last male vet. Would it be Bananas or
would it be you think it's still be ct. I think you think Bananas
would would sign off on not being the premiere flagship person. Stephanie brought up
the Bananas would have been earlier. That's when they had to switch to two
girls in a row. Okay, yeah, because there was a what was
the episode that there was the episode that Mariah was really worried that Bananas was
gonna come out. Who came out instead? No, I thought it was
a guy because we've had Jordan. We had Jordan and then oh we had
a real and it wasn't It might have actually been Tori. You might be
right. I don't first time ever if that happened. No, because I
think I did the fact, you might actually be right because that might have
been when they when they switched it so that it was two girls, because
we've had two girls back back twice. Yeah, I think it might have
been to It just seems like they've been building, you know what I mean,
They've they've started off kind of they start off with Jordan, which is
a big splash, and then they started and then they went small down with
Cass small to big guys and then went to Devon and Tory and yeah,
I mean, I guess we could Kara and then Brad and I love Brad.
I love Brad. Yeah, they would not have brought Brad out Aftercara.
If it had been Jordan for the men Jordan, Devon, Johnny Durrell
CT, then it would have been three really heavy hitters, and Devon and
Darrell who are still heavy hitters but not on the same level. I could
see that. Yeah, it would have made a lot more sense with all
of the Mariah and James drama. Yeah, it just seems like if Bananas
would want to be the headliner, I would. I would think Bananas would
want that, and he's sort of too, But it could also be I
don't know. I feel like people may want to see CT just beat the
other living shit out of people a little bit more than Bananas would because it's
always been ship at eliminations. Yeah, and I'm not saying what fans would
like. I'm just saying what Bananas would sort of tolerate. It just seems
like Bananas wouldn't sign up if he wasn't the headliner, but maybe maybe you
would. Yeah, that's true too. I guess anyway. Yeah, Kylin
winz also could have been scheduling. Yeah, maybe that's his schedule would have
fit. Yeah, that's true too. Yep. Well, Coylin wins,
nobody goes home. Brad does not win. He does say twice two times
that he loves this game with every fiber of his being. That's what we
get when MTV has got a pad out for an hour and a half episodes.
You get to get people saying the same ship, the same exact sentences
over and over again. Are you sure it wasn't in the exact same clip.
Yeah, because one time he said it in the arena and then the
other time was in a confessional. It's like, yeah, we've heard it,
like this is we've heard this. They did give Brad a chance to
like talk to the players, like say something heartfelt and inspirational. He didn't
do a very good job at that. I don't remember what he said,
don't get married. I feel like they all have gotten a chance to do
that. We just haven't seen it for all of them. Yeah, and
I know Brad is not well loved. I don't think a lot of people
knew who he was. And he walked into the arena like he felt a
little he felt a little out of place. Yeah, I mean quite honestly.
I think the thing that people know the most about him recently is that
he was married to another Challenger and that he fucked Brittany on the very first
episode and had this Challenge relationship for the next like two or three seasons that
then broke up on the season. Yep. He's a very interesting guy that
Brad. I love Brad. Wasn't wasn't on a season between seasons. It
was kind of, honestly, like it was on a reunion or something that
we saw Brittany come on and it was weird. There was there was the
episode where she had already gone home and he called her to kind of like,
well, what's going on? I hear that you and your ex er
because they were in the Redemption house and I think it was was it Devin,
that wasn't it? It happened between because she flew to Chicago, hung
out with him and his boys and his family, and then he drove her
to the airport. Oh that's right at the airport as she was got on
the plane home and they were together that weekend. Because of that Chicago event,
Wolfe that me and you almost went to yep, and then she brings
it up on the reunion the uh he fucked her brains out for like four
days and then dropped said in Illinois, yeah, which yeah, we live
Yay. We could have been there for part of that, Wolfe could have
we could have seen it. You want a pizza beat? Oh god,
that's right. One of the best lines that has ever come out of this
show was because of Brad and Brittany Well and now it's a necklace. Brad
has made an impact on this show. Brad has beat ct and landing in
eliminations. Brad's Brad's a badass. I love Brad. Not the best performance
tonight, but I will always tick up for Brad. Yeah, we'll put
me on your list. You're on my list. He's so weird, it's
great. I love that guy. Oh god, he's such a nutcase.
And those eyes, those oh yeah eyes, just beautiful. He could give
you give Ramota Singer a run for her money. She is a rather disgraced
because she's most definitely racist. She's an old real housewife of New York who
has the same type of eyes. They bug the fuck out when she gets
like when she gets aggravated or when things go wrong, her eyes are just
fucking huge. Love it. Love those big guest Love Brandon yep Hey.

nice if people do that, it's very nice. Yeah, and then Jamie
says that you guys are basically the only reason I'm still watching this show.

pants? Well, you should always have pants on. I'm at home,
just saying you can only see from like mid chest up, so to say,
if you're not, that's going to be a Patreon. We got Andrew
KA ninety three titled Brutal Honesty, which makes makes me really worried about what
I'm about to read flucker real quick, but it's really positive, So thank
you to Andrew K ninety three. It says I've been listening to for three
or four seasons now of your podcast. It is so entertaining. I'm such
a huge fan of the brutal honesty that you all bring to your reviews,
tearing apart how bad some of these challenges are, what bad decisions are being
made by challenges and alliances, and just hearing your general opinions on some of
the egotistical maniacs that are playing or have played this game. I love the
throwbacks to all challenges and challengers as well. I've been watching on and off
since Fresh Meat too and absolutely love the challenge. Keep posting and I'll keep
listening. Thanks Andrew from Toronto, Ontario. Thanks Andrew, Thanks Andrew very
nice. I appreciate that people are okay with me with the shit the wheels
out. You know, I'm over giving a shit. I'll talk about this
season, but I hope there's somebody out there thinking this season does suck.
Listening to them except that it sucks makes it a little better. I mean,
it seems to be more than just someone. There seems to be the
majority of people. Yes, most people are yes full of hate for this
season. Ooo, e Zach, we you guys social media? Oh thank
you. I guess that's it. During the pre show, before we even
started recording, Carland's like, I bet tonight it's gonna go pretty quick.
Yeah, I did say that we're at an hour five. Well, okay,
so I did say that I bet that tonight's going to either that Tonight's
gonna go really quick, and then I followed it up with or we're gonna
spend fucking forever bitching about how bad this episode was. That's true. Well,
this is fourth in a row that nobody goes home bullshit. Yes,
that's some fucking bullshit. Somebody better go home next week and we better have
some fucking purges coming up. Save a CT say yeah, there better be
some Like I'm not talking like one or two people, like they need to
send home five Yeah, sixteen fucking people, yep, sixteen Yep. I'd
be fine if the next episode was just sort of like TJ putting them on
the start line, like run two miles. The last seven people are just
out of the game. Yeah, but then I watch the Souse CT.
It's gonna have to be the episode after that. That'd be fine, well
probably, I mean, if the way things go then they were still gonna
have fucking sixteen people. Yeah, Goose Forces. What if CT comes out
forty pounds overweight? Man, fuck that shit. He came out forty pounds
over weight when he came back on his Dad Bod season and still won that
ship. Yeah, dad, but Dad dad Bod CT was still a monster.
So yeah, I fucking love Dad Bods, especially when he's not competing
in daily challenges and living in the house and all you gotta do is show
up, wreck shit and leave. Oh that's perfect, yeah, CT.
The most impressive moment for CT for me was actually one of the Champs Versus
seasons. I don't remember which one was, but it was probab like at
his fattest, And there was a scene where he just sort of like effortlessly
put himself up on these like big mats and like balanced across all of them,
looking at like a graceful gazelle. And he's like sixty pounds overweight.
He's like this enormous, huge, fucking fatness of a man, just like
bouncing delicately on this thing. It was like, holy shit, look at
that guy. Yeah, he's he's fully capable at any size. That's CT.
Yeah, CET. Like we have Jose over there saying that that his
his skill is his agility. No, no, no, you don't.
If your skill is actually your agility, you don't spot off about it.
Yeah, you act like CT, who can just go through and do this
shit. And his skill is actually his agility and his puzzle skills and his
ability to just fucking house anybody in an eating competition and all of the physical
competition. Like, there's a reason why CT is a champ. He has
no weaknesses. Yeah, it took him, don't get me wrong, it
took him many years to get there. Yeah, but once he kind of
calmed his ass down seats, he's biggest enemy was himself percent. Yeah,
since he's been focusing on that on other people. He just wins every time.
Yeah, it's crazy. Brian wants to know, does this season make
you miss Josh or not quite that bad? No, no season will ever
be that bad. No. Still very glad Josh is not on this season.
Y'all. Don't miss me. I do not know. No, we
don't Josh. Not a bit, not a bit, all right, I
guess for this episode of Challenge has been big sweet Team carl and san Diego
and as Brad said, Charlie
