Yeah. You know what's great is as um stus, we clean the whole
boat well that includes the captain's porters and without you know there were there were
some secret hiding in his in his room. Welcome to Bart another brands banking
new episode or with China Um of another Below Deck podcast. Today is a
very very special day. Today is not only a searette interview, but rather
a kind of companionship. Today it's a searette recap. Um. We haven't
really done that. We've tried it. I think we did a one time
with Gabby who got absolutely shit faced that I think the fans were really pissed
off. But as we're going back into the vault, we have been exploring
season one of Below Deck og and joining us today is one of the cast
members of the Maiden Voyage of Honor, none other than the engineer herself.
Sam. Hi, Sam, thank you for joining us, Thank you,
thanks for doing this. Happy to me. This is gonna be fun because
when you get to look back and Sam, I don't know if you've kept
track of this. This is the ten year anniversary this month of the release
of this season of Below Deck. Did you keep track of that? Sam?
It's been more than ten years, hasn't it well? Starting off pretty
adversarial. They're saying bad does not like to be corrected. She it debuted,
but it debuted in June of twenty thirteen, but she may be recollecting
that the film was a year prior. See, there's a lot of tension
already. This is gonna get yet. I don't think there's any tension.
I think we got Pat playing the role of Adrian, and Sam is Sam.
But Sam, we're going to kind of ask how this was throughout the
episode recap, so I think we should just get into the first thing that
happens, because we have to ask you what it was like being aboard a
vessel where the patrons were kicked off the boat for cocaine, so that,
yeah, you know I was. I was kind of removed from that whole
happening. I don't know where I was, like down in the launcher room
probably, and Kat was up cleaning the cleaning all the heads and found it.
So you know, I didn't really know what was going on until after
the fact and someone that, oh, they the guests are leaving or the
guests are getting kicked so you know, yes, is what it is.
All right, so you can be on record now finally giving some clarity to
the rumors over the years, did you guys in fact collectively have a mutiny
once the guests were kicked off the boat? Saying basically, your fears were
that producers had created this drama, had planted the cocaine, and you guys
refused to film. Is that true? Can you explain what that was?
Like? Oh? What you lost me? There was there No, there
was no planting of any drugs that I'm aware of. Ye. I didn't
refuse to film after that. So none of you refused to film after those
guys were kicked off the boat. No, absolutely not. In fact,
it was a welcomed break because we didn't have to serve people for the next
next week. We just got some downtime, right, So nice, So
play in the ocean. Who comes up with these stupid fucking rooms? It's
an article if you can believe it? Yeah, all right, So let's
let's just spell some rumors or bad info out on the internet about this season.
Another rumor going around was that Adrian was not supposed to be the chief
stew She was in fact hired on the show to be a chef. Can
you speak to that? Oh man, you're making me, You're making my
memory. Really do some work here, Okay, I do recall something about
that. I think that so I believe Adrian was underqualified to be a cheap
stew. I don't think she had held that position before. And most of
her previous work experience had been as a chef on board much much smaller charter
vessels, and so really hired to be the chef or not. But I
know she was underqualified to be the stew or the chief stew. And I
also know that she was in not even the sizzle reel. But like I
guess in the production world, like when they were pitching this long before it
ever became a reality, was they put together these I don't know, you
guys would probably know what they're called, like little mini cuts of like what
it could look like real. Yeah, yeah, And so I think Adrian
was part of that, and the intention was to only use her for that
and then recast season one or the pilot season. So I don't know how
or when they decided to bring her on as the chief stew it's below deck
thing. Ever, They're just like, let's have somebody who has cooked on
fishing boats. Be the chief stew of this super yacht. It'll make for
great Um. Yeah, Sam, how are you and Adrian doing today?
Are you guys fast friends? Do you guys still talk? Oh? Bessies.
Yeah, it's nice to know that a decade can't heal old wounds.
No no, no, no, no, no no, no full sarcasm.
Idea, how she is or where she is? Um, no clue?
Yeah, all right, A few more questions if you don't mind,
before we get started and start getting into the episode, and then of course
we'll pepper in questions from there. Um, what was it like, because
this was, in my memory an instant hit for Bravo. Did you experience
and like, now, Bravo you've seen what happened with the Housewives and you
know the Instagram followings and everybody's making hay out of being on you know,
a couple of seasons of whatever Bravo offering. What was it like at the
time of the airing for you personally? Um, it was pretty wild.
Yeah. I mean we had no clue. I don't even think when we
were filming that it was that we were convinced it was going to be on
Bravo because it was such a pilot season and they were like, oh,
yeah, we're pitching this to Bravo where Bravo was interested. And then it
wasn't until like the end of the episode they flew somebody out to Saint Martin
from Bravo and then we were like, oh, maybe this is gonna be
on Bravo. Like, I don't know. It was bizarre. So yeah,
when we when it started airing, I guess a year later. At
that point, I had moved to Los Angeles and you know, would start
to get recognized out and about, and it was just very surreal where you
live in Los Angeles. I lived in Encino for a while. Whoa,
whoa, Hey, I am so sorry because we have not asked the most
importan portant question ever. And I think that, you know what, I
think that I think that it's hurt the podcast quite quite frankly, because we
didn't ask question because we didn't all, right, here it is, Sam,
how'd you get on the show? How'd you get on the show?
Soon? Um, so, I was working at an engineering office and my
mom actually sent me a Facebook link that it was just a really basic little
flyer that would pop up on the side of Facebook. This was like the
whole Facebook interface doesn't even look like it does today. Yeah, but it
was a little fly popped up and it just had like a picture of a
Caribbean island and it said want to work on a yacht question marks. And
my mom used to work on yachts, and so she thought, whoa,
let me just send this over to my daughter who's miserable in her engineering career.
And so I clicked the link, seeing what it is, and the
initial application was super short. It wanted like your name, your experience,
and a paragraph about yourself in a touch with photo and that was it.
And so I had no idea that it was like for a reality show,
that it was going to be on Bravos, none of that. I submitted
it like it was just a basic application, and then like within a week
I had a producer or a casting agent calling me wanting to set up a
like an interview, a face to face or a you know, like a
zoom interview. Because now it's it's such a different process. People are actually
going to Yatti school to then kind of jump onto this show, and I
think that's kind of changed the show quite a bit. Yeah, well,
speaking of you know, I want to pause on that question, but thank
you for letting us know one the last question, and I think it's it's
an important question because all right, so Sam, I watched the show when
it originally aired. I loved it instantly. My cousin Christie was visiting for
the summer. That's what we watched every night that when it aired. We
loved it, and I was absolutely confused when season two aired and basically it
was completely recast. Can you walk us through a little bit about how that
happened because we're only on season episode three of the season. I love this
season. I'm just it's just the way it's shot. It's beautiful, the
casting was perfect. What was it like when you found out you wouldn't be
returning, or perhaps you didn't even want to return. I probably would have
returned for a second season. I just didn't get invited. I don't know.
I think that it has a lot to do with storylines and character development
and things like that, and if they feel that they got like okay,
so I really feel like the reason they cast me initially is because they wanted
like a newbie, a party girl, um, someone who was single,
and when I shared the story about my sister, that was like gold to
them, right. They wanted to kind of exploit that, unfortunately, and
so they got all that out of me. That's all I had to give,
you know what I mean? I am who I am. I showed
all my cards in season one, and so I don't know. I can't
speak for the casting producer, the casting people and how they came about season
two, but it is bizarre because I became pretty close friends with um,
you know, Mark Cronin and and Lisa and the whole gang, and you
know, hung out together in Los Angeles, and so I was I was
a little shocked too that I didn't get picked up for a season two business
kid, you were never friends with them, they were using yes And also,
by the way your story nowadays, people just show up in the expectation
is just get blackout, drunken bang your coworker. Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Well, okay, so let's jump in to the next part of the
episode. It we I don't know if you're watching below deck now or if
you care, but right now, the series is kind of gnawing at itself
over this throuble, and it would seem as though in episode two of season
one, the groundwork was laid for a throuble. Ah Cat CJ and Sam.
Now you and CJ were fast friends. You were shaving his back within
moments of knowing him. Why did you say yes to doing that? And
why did you do it? Oh? Man, I don't know. I
guess a kind person. Yeah, help help scrout you know what I mean?
You're a very street person, because that is disgusting. So Sam,
you were sitting idly by while Kat, who seems like a great person had
quite you know, quite a bit of a drinking problem at the stage in
your life, was trying to fuck CJ in the bathroom. Now CJ um
has a little convo with you after Kat, Um I think falls over somewhere,
and he puts you at ease by saying, Sam, don't worry,
I'm not into fake tits? Now were you? How is? See?
What's your your read on c CJ as a person having spent an entire season
with him? Is he a bit of a gross coxman? Or you guys
still friendly? What? What? What's his h what's his beat? Oh?
Man? Um? I mean I said this in the reunion, Um
I ever had dealings for CJ. Yeah, I was never attracted to him.
I know that the season portrays me being into him. I know they
said, like there were clips of me saying that CJ was hot, but
if you notice, I didn't say CJ's hot. I just said he's hot.
And so it was like this Franken clip of me talking about some that
they pieced together to make it look like I was talking about CJ. Yeah,
is a good dude. I would absolutely never be romantic. Now,
just to set the scene here, this is your first night out, which
has now become a major trope of the show. You guys work very hard,
and now it's time to make bad decisions and show up at tourist destinations
where cruise ships drop off people at these night spots that he might be there,
right because they're sparklers and overpriced vodka. So you Kat, it is
made to look like you guys are fighting over CJ. At some point,
Kat goes and hangs out. I think she sits on deckhand Dave's dick and
you cozy up next to him, and I think, per Cat she gives
advice that you always need to have sex with the person that you're sharing quarters
with Yeah, very much like a shop teacher would explain how to use a
band saw. It's just a matter of fact. Lee. But all right,
So I love how that's established very out of the gate that she wasn't
into CJ. I don't think by the way that they have different are they
still doing different sexes in the same I think it's rather frowned upon. Depending
on the vessel, Captain Sandy Joan won't have a second of it, That's
right, she just won't have a second. That is so odd that they
did that. Back well, we get back to the boat, Kate's titts
are out, and Kate's titts are out somehow, So um, yeah,
Kat, sorry, excuse me, I had helmet nachos last night. Sam,
I'm I'm a little right back. So we have our first issue the
next morning of the episode. We've already had fifteen issues with Sam and Adrian,
but this is where you two kind of flare up at one another for
the first time this episode. Now Kat mentions that it's just you two or
oil and water. You are not destined to work with one another. Well,
now, Adrian is an overcompensating monster. But I do have to say,
Sam, and I know that you've likely grown, but you were a
real piece of work back then too. I mean you were quite the dick
to her, but she was quite the dick to you. So this was
not ever going to be a thing. What are we not seeing on camera
that caused the rub? You know, once you lose respect for somebody,
it's just really hard to dig your way out of that for her to diga
you know what I mean. And so it had been like week of just
I I just couldn't with her. Yeah, Sam, I get where you're
coming from, because there's this this slippery thing with that kind of management,
especially if it's completely incompetent and underqualified. So that cameras there and camera's there.
So what that person should be is humble, team oriented and not hierarchically
focused. But when you have somebody who's hierarchically focused, it's not just that
you need to do your job, it's that you need to pay respect to
her position while going throughout the duty. It's like part of your job is
to, you know, kind of cowtow to the fact that she is above
you. And when she is as incompetent and rude as she is, that
adds to the yuckiness of this relationship, and I believe it was brought up
in the episode. Adrian is always on the upper management hierarchy is never there's
never an off button, It's always there is Would you agree with that?
Yeahhheartedly so, so yeah, go ahead him. I knew that after a
few weeks of filming, like the producers were eating it up right and and
I knew that essentially she wasn't my boss, right like in the in the
show, sure she was my boss, but in real life, the production
company was my boss. They were the ones who were paying me to be
there and keeping me there. Adrian couldn't actually fire me, so I didn't.
I didn't really have to report to Adrian. I was reporting to the
production company, and the production company was eating it up right, right,
right right, So yeah, there was plenty of job security in the nastiness
between you. Now you bring up the fact that you didn't get a degree
in industrial engineering to be treated like this. Now I want to talk about
the degree in industrial engineering because this is just insane. You are talking about
how you understand differential equations in this very very complicated math, yet you found
yourself in what sounded like an office space kind of nightmare, so soul crushing
that your mother sent you a maybe take a whim on working in the Caribbean
somewhere, Like, what is going on? Why so much sweat equity poured
into academia to be shaving CJ's back. Now, I don't mean to frame
that as like a drop, but it's quite a shift. Well, she
explains it in the show Dylan when she'll explain it here. She hated the
mundane just right. But there are no other pathways into engineering. Why the
switch? I was young, right, I had only been like less than
a year out of college. So the job I was working was my first
job out of college, and I took it based on, you know what
paid the most. Basically, I hadn't explored my career yet. I hadn't
found my niche in engineering. Yeah, so you know I was. I
had a long commute to get to my job at the time, which didn't
help anything. And you know, sometimes you just want to escape, you
want to be back Caribbean, and so it was just an opportunity. Plus
I had you know confidence that Okay, now I have this degree under my
belt, that's not going anywhere. So if I want to fuck off for
a few months for the summer, I can always come back. Yeah yeah.
This was her version of why don't I just get a train pass and
go stay in Europe for three months? Read one? Because you get a
notoriety and you get paid. Um did you go back to um that career
path? I did? Yeah, I went. I went back to that
same company. Actually I worked with them for a few more months before I
moved to LA. And then when I moved to LA, I started working
for a solar company in the valley. What was it better than being on
a yacht wiping up piss and dealing with me and me and drunks? Yeah?
Um, it paid more. Yeah, well, it's an experience.
It's an experience. Um. All right, So we we get to cooler
gate. Um, this is we talked about it, you guys feud over
the cooler a bit. Kat wakes up believe it or not, she's tired.
The next day. Um, she is getting the ship beaten out of
her by Adrian who doesn't care because the guests are coming and I, for
one was hoping that they did not have cocaine on them. They didn't,
but they arguably had something worse, which was a scam in their bones.
The person that boards this vessel, the second charter guest of the first season,
is a hypnotist who charges people forty five thousand dollars a session. Who
was this guy, Sam? This guy was a quack in a charlatan.
I mean, we saw him perform hypnosis a couple of times and it did
not work. I've lived in Los Angeles, well, sorry, Sam,
I've lived in Los Angeles for a number of years. This was a thing
in that era. Oh my god. And they were making lots of money,
and I don't want to be cynical, but I think a lot of
them were carn artists. Yea, yeah, Sam, what were your thoughts?
I cannot confirm or deny that anyone has ever paid that many anti hypnotize
them. Yea A line that someone said Adrian when she said that, I
don't know. Um, yeah, he seemed like a normal dude to me.
I don't like, I don't know. He seemed like the voice on
meditation apps. But just before meditation apps and before recording if in your memory,
Sam, I had a trouble understanding who actually was paying for this particular
charter. Was it the hypnotist or his ensemble of I think customers? Do
you do you remember the makeup of who actually were you answering to when you
were when you were working for this charter? I have no idea. So
they The thing with these people is the green juice. Now we'll get to
the green juice in a second. Um. C J has a moment though,
where he pops his shirt off, right, CJ. CJ's got to
pop that top off because Sam's been shaving his back. He's looking good,
he's feeling good. And we get this hilarious thread this episode where CJ is
like, you know, this is fucking way out of line. People telling
me to be clothed while I work. Um, can you imagine if he
worked at as like a door greeter at Walmart? Yeah? Yeah, yeah,
he'd be taste right. It's like I work here. I okay,
Todd, but you have your shirt right, your nipples are out. It's
completely inappropriate. Um, what who is this guy? What is his vibe?
Sam? Is he just like a beach bum? I don't know how
he didn't know that it was not appropriate to be half nude. I again
think that he liked much of much of the cast, myself included, we're
all underqualified to be there. And CJ had worked maybe on like, you
know, a thirty foot sale as like a deck hand that wasn't really getting
was you know, doing a doing a I don't even know, Yeah,
some kind of charter. Yeah he was getting paid and weed exactly. Yeah
he's used to shirtless and I don't know, Yeah, not a real upstart.
Um. So the green juice thing comes up next, Yes, and
the green juice is really throwing a wrench into things. Um. Breakfast is
not served for an hour and a half or two hours as the juices are
taking up too much time. Um. Sam, this was a point of
This was an uh moment for you and a point of contention between you and
Adrian. Now Adrian seems to be belittling you in this moment, telling you
that you know not how to cut oranges properly and seems to think that you
are incapable of making green juice. Um, what was this? It sounds
like you had been on the boat for a while before you guys started actually
filming these episodes. But was this a straw that broke a camel's back or
was the camel had had the camel already been mutilated on the ground at this
point, I think the camel was a bag of bones, really right,
right, yeah, I know, just classic case of micromanaging. Yeah,
you know what I mean. Right, You didn't gonna tell me the orange
that I'm putting into a juicer. I mean it's just hitting. Yeah.
Yeah. The beauty, the beauty of juicers is that your knife skills don't
need to be that great because it's going to be turning to pulp soon.
So um, not a big deal. Now, something I deemed something interesting
out of this which has been very early on kind of taking almost like a
labor Union head line in the sand, right, I don't touch anything that's
not solid. Yeah, if it's a liquid darling, I'm not making it
darling. Right yeah. One question, so Captain Lee, I know you
don't follow the series, are I think just briefly talking to you that you're
no longer kind of in the below deck. You've moved on. You've moved
on. Good for you. Captain Lee was handed as walking papers this past
year. Ever, after a decade of service, do you remember pat hates
Do you remember filming with Captain Lee, And can you give a little insight
because I've always thought that he was very heavily involved with production and very cared,
very much about how he was perceived on camera. Can you give us
any insights to your experience watching Captain Lee film. Yeah, so that last
statement you made, I can confirm that, But I don't think as involved
in the production until some of the subsequent seasons and season one, he was
kind of just as confused and skeptical as the rest of us. Wow,
as like, what was going to come of this? Right right? Um,
he always knew he was a star, but he didn't know that he
was going to happens. I think that in season one he was kind of
he wasn't ready to be a star, or he didn't know he was going
to be a star. He was just kind of being the just curmudgeon that
he is. And so I don't know, I think a star was born
season one. Yeah, before you know it, Bradley Cooper is hanging in
the garage. Um, I think I used to. At the start of
the season, Um, I like Captain Lee. I was in his corner,
and by the end, Um, I had a pretty strong distaste for
him. He just kind of Wow. Okay, as was my boss or
he was you know, too strict running the ship or anything like that.
Um, I just think he, you know, he lacked some integrity and
um, you know, he had some personal things going on that he covered
up and you know, hid from the cameras while everybody else was you know,
burying at all. Should we press? Was it about it? Was?
It? Was it about it? No? I think everybody, if
they can, we'll be on a reality show, an attempt to hide things,
and he was no different than that. Sure, but yes, well
I hate his guys. After some conflict resolution between you know, the interior,
we moved to the beach, as we do, and there is a
storm coming. Now they do edit in lightning. That was pathetic, but
there is a bit of a sitch. Um, there's going to be rain
coming down, and as is customary with below Deck, they're just like fuck
it and everyone drinks their green juice and they eat in torrential down storm.
Yeah a lot of rain, A lot of rain, sixty thousand dollars a
day. Yeah, I know, but I love how I think it was
the primary who said how much can we pay? I know, I hope
it was a joe. How much can we pay to make the rain go
away? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, well there is a price on that.
So we get back to the boat and we've got you Sam doing spinach.
You're on spinach duty. And this is when Adrian comes in with another
kind of haymaker. Off the top rope. She is telling you to drop
spinach duty and that you need to go do something else. Now, you
guys get into a little bit of a tiff. But the thing I want
to highlight here is CJ's confessional. He um compares to Adrian to Adolf Hitler.
Yeah, he compares her to Adolf Hitler. That's a that's a comparison
that's made quite often. You know, he's he's one of the more famous
bats ease of human history. But then CJ. Gustati he does the zick
Kyle. Dude, he throws the zick Kile down. I was like,
God, dam, CJ. Sam called me before we recorded this. She
was seeking out an episode. Certain episodes of this season have been pulled off.
What format was it that you were looking for? Hulu because all of
them or it's not available on Prime either Hulu and Prime and all of them.
You can't get the dude it's a dude dude episode, which was former
episode three. You cannot find it, wow, because I think you had
surmised that there were too many slur phobic slurs in the episode. There were.
Yeah, the entire episode was a transgender one big transgender slur. Yeah,
it was about It was about us going to a bar and one of
the guys bringing home a transgender woman and didn't didn't know that it was transgender
woman, and so it was yeah, Oh that's right. I saw that
in the coming up. I hope we can find that on Peacock because that's
going to be quite a time castle down her. So right before dinner,
Sam and Adrian get into um a little another little I owe another one,
another little tiff. Sam goes quite nuts on her here. I can't remember
specifically what happened, so I'm inclined. It was night time where basically she
wasn't allowing Sam to understand her schedule to basically, when can I eat Sam?
Can you break down the game film on that? Oh my gosh,
I just wanted to be able to shower like, I mean, I'm not
kidding, Like we were working, like working, working like we had to
be on like twenty hours a day. Yeah, and like you'd have a
few hours to sleep, and God forbid you wanted to maintain a little personal
hygiene, you have to that had to cut into your sleep schedule, right,
and in Hower it was Yeah. This is one of the drawbacks of
corporate uh, the corporate machine is they're mandated by labor laws to give you
certain break times. Not out at sea to the sun and there's water and
beautiful people. I'm sorry you threw up blood this morning. Back. All
I'm saying is like, if I was no longer serving the guests, I
could have gone below decks down to the crew mess which is also where the
laundry room was, and like kicks off my shoes theoretical or you know,
hypothetically because we didn't have shoes on, right, taking a shower and kind
of turned off, and then I still could have like done laundry and stuff.
I think would have been working. Yeah, but he wasn't allowed that
time to like just exhale. One of the one of the trickier things about
being in higher up positions is managing people. Adrian couldn't. It didn't sound
it doesn't sound like Adrian could do the regular job, let alone the managing
of people. That's where she really did not excel at. And to be
fair to her, if you are not experienced in that, that can go
south with a lot of people. Give them a little power and most people
can't handle it. Yeah, and you do have to, like remind yourself,
part of my responsibility is taking care of the people who are working for
me, because no people cannot just go days without bathing. And you know,
you guys are you're you're all drinking so much. I mean it just
the vodka coming off of cat. I mean, you have to wash that
shit off. So let's see what this forty five thousand dollars is worth.
I believe they hypnotize. He hypnotizes his entire group and my flock, Yeah,
his entire flock. Now, my favorite hypnotist hypnotism moment was when he
hypnotizes Adrian La in the episode. We'll skip past it just for the sake
of talking about it right now. That was an odd sentence. But when
he hypnotizes Adrian, he does this great and obviously spoiler alert, Sam,
you can confirm or deny this, but did the hypnotism take oh kidding.
He does this amazing thing, which is kind of like it's like signing a
waiver before you get on like a really unsafe carnival ride. He goes,
he wakes Adrian up, and he says, now, the tools I've given
you, you can choose to use them or not. Thanks, Obie.
So if this hypnotism didn't work, it's your fault because I am a hypnotist.
So I've done my job here. This guy disgusts me. He's just
he's such a fucking fraud. Yeah. So so yeah, scene because I
only because I just rewatched this episode. In that scene, they show me
like sitting on the floor in a rain jacket, as if I was in
the room watching it all happen. Right. I was not there, of
course, you Like we've been recapping reality TV for some time. That is
an obvious Like I was watching the episode, I was like, Okay,
well, she definitely was not in the room. Yeah, because Adrian would
have been freaking out. If you were in the room, it would have
just it just didn't happen, right, all right. So the crew heads
to bed after a lovely dinner of crispy artichoke with filet it was dinner kind
of. It was back when they didn't understand They loved Chef Ben clearly from
a production standpoint, giving him all the one liners and no one going after
him. Yet they don't feature his food very early on, No, they
do not. Um. But we go to bed and um. Adrian goes
to get a little advice from Porcupine. Um God God Sam. Yeah,
Sonic the hedgehog he dated. We cover our show called Vanderpump Rules. At
the time of airing, he was dating christ Yeah. Wow, wow,
Well he had beautiful eyebrows. But he just tells the cameras and not her
that she's kind of a bitch, and I think that's why it's not working
out. But we get to the next day. There's an issue with running
out of veggies, and this is where Lee leeism's pretty hard um and is
like, you know, this is just completely unacceptable and and it's one of
those things where you're like Lee, these people are eating the amount of vegetation
of a silverback gorilla, a gigantic omnivore. Right, so please fucking lay
off, And would you like to know what's inappropriate? Inappropriately you walking around
in your underwear with a female staff member in your room. You fucking pick
well, Sam, Pat does not likely. He reminded me of a football
coach that beat me up when I was fourteen, and I and so I
triggers those memories. I hately he said, shark, you said, doesn't
like him? Pat does not like me. I don't like him? Yeah,
no, um yeah, yeah. You know what's great is as um
stus, we clean the whole boat. Well, that includes the captain's quarters
and without you know, there were there were some secrets hiding in his in
his room. Yeah, we don't want to get you in trouble. But
that's a nice tease because I think we can think about what might be in
there. I think it's a double sided dildough. Well that's something to do
with with smut, right, something to do It was smut much? Uh,
sack, sack. It's probably porn or lotion. He's beating up he
belo wasn't it wasn't. Oh gosh, is it a fucking crack pipe?
What are you talking about? We don't want to get you in all right,
We don't want to get you in trouble. So um, well we'll
ask you off air. So um She okay, So Adrian's off the boat.
But it turns out that she might have needed to be there for the
coffee machine because Sam and Kat do not do the hottest job of making lattes.
The good name don't get in there. It was Kat making. I
knew that espresso was seeing like the back of my hand. What happened with
the espresso? And she what did she did? She put the beans where
the water is supposed to go. Yes, she did. Okay, Well,
now, because you have to remember, Adrian was putting U in charge.
I'm sorry Sam put Adrian puts salmon charge of the Catalina wine mixer,
right kinda. She tells her she's entrusted her to blend vegetables. The coffee
machine's a hold up. The coffee machine is Cat's responsibility. So Adrian gets
back, She gets the hypnosis that doesn't work, and then we get to
CJ taking off his shirt again. Now he is told by an engineer,
M dude, you have to stop taking your shirt off and CJ. CJ
is like, you know what, I can't fucking I can't fucking do this
shit, man, It's just fucking ridiculous. Um. And this is when
we move on to you and Adrian having a little sit down. Now,
this seems like half measures from both of you. It's a it's a chicken
or the egg thing. I think she comes, she sits down with you
and immediately presents this air of like I have to do this. It seems
very disingenuous and it seems like you're picking up on it instantaneously. But do
you recall how this went? I think was that conversation was one of those
uh production um you know, they coordinated it. They were like, this
is this needs to come to a head. We need like some development on
this. We can't just go you know, the full season in with YouTube
and condescending to each other. Why don't we sit down and talk about it
and try to get the more content out of it. So that's I think
we're that conversation. I love talking to people from past seasons because they're not
shackled by Bravo. Yeah they current cast members are always like, no,
there is no meddling. There is no meddling at all. It's just they
capture what they capture and it's like, you're lying, how could you possibly
say this? I have a note here attempt to squash the beef between Adrian
and Sam, and that's clearly production intervention trying to do that. This was
you trying to get clarity on your brakes, by the way, I think
it was the part of this conversation. Yeah, and just just the fallout
of her being being awful to you for for some time. But we move
on to the guest departing the boat, and we're wrapping up here. The
charter guest says that he had a great time and that he wants to express
his gratitude in a physical way, which is a just a bizarre sentence,
just a bizarre fucking thing to say. Well, we've seen when we watch
next to him, that guy who just gonna do like three hundred years in
jail. We walk him talking circles in say things right that are confusing,
But most dumb people will fall into the trap of like, oh, I
think he's smarter than because I don't understand what he just said. Well most
of us didn't either. Well, we rap up the episode with a pretty
sizeable tip pet fifteen grand, which is now a lot more than that fifteen
k. I thought that was a pretty good tip for one day. It
was only a one day, Charter write Sam, no three days. Oh
that's a little light. That's a little light. That's a little light,
but ten years ago, I don't know, adjusted for inflation, I don't
know. I mean, it's still not not the greatest tip. But we
end the episode with Lee CJ on the boat hitting on Sam. This is
where they're trying to create that romance between the two of them. And then
we kind to Lee calling Porcupine up and Adrian to give a little feedback.
Yeah. So Lee calls Porcupine and Adrian up and says, you guys are
doing a shit job. But obviously I think you're doing excellently. And this
is the kind of you know, management under Lee that gets a little confusing.
Um, do we have any final questions for Sam? Well? I
don't think we need to have any final questions because Sam, we got like
nine episodes left. We'd love to have you back. This was the fun
time I've had podcasting in a while. Would you come back and recap some
episodes with us? We have more questions for you. They're gonna they're gonna
crop up as the season goes. Sure, amazing that sounds like, I
don't know, Yeah, it did sound like a note I come back.
