Speaker 1: That's right. Start a podcast by swearing.
Speaker 2: We have to stand for my audio board. It doesn't
fit on it, so sometimes they'll slider. Hey, everybody, welcome
to Survivor, the one season podcast about Survivor.
Speaker 1: Yeah, since we.
Speaker 2: Usually cover Challenge, but challenges, I don't know a hiatus.
Speaker 3: So and shit, they's took a chance that we'll get
two seasons of Survivor in before for next season Challenge
comes in.
Speaker 1: They're recording this season the Challenge but yeah, sometimes sits
on a shelf for a year, so we'll see what happens.
Speaker 2: Hey, as always, I am Brian sitting across in his
bedroom thinking about Nicole Aaker, big uncle, sweetee and sitting
at home.
Speaker 1: And hot and dumb.
Speaker 2: Jactually called this, she called Jonathan last week.
Speaker 3: Oh still hot and dumb. Yeah, he was especially hot
and dumb in this. He was just especially hot in
this episode.
Speaker 2: You saved someone's life, Carlyn. How dare you?
Speaker 1: So? As we're talking about Jonathan, there's no way for
me to squeeze this into the trivia of the show.
But I learned from the Survivor's subreddit that Jonathan appeared
in this in the TV show Endurance, which was a
Nickelodeon TV show that also uh John a from the
Challenge appeared in Oh so Jonathan, Yeah, Jonathan was in
this at age fourteen. Somebody posted like a video of
Jonathan on a reality show at age fourteen, and he's
he's one of these fourteen year olds that looks like
a twenty five year old dude. No, I mean like
but like clearly had already been working out and like
clearly like you could see you could see his course,
like he's a big big for you.
Speaker 3: He knew that he was going to be hot and dumb,
so he needs to lean.
Speaker 1: Down to the hot spot. Just start working out early, dude,
to start lifting, wait for real early. But yeah, fair, yeah,
So if you want to see Jonathan, if you're Jonathan
fan and you want to see him at age fourteen,
Carl and I know you're myself.
Speaker 3: From seeing anything that's outside of the actual episode for
the season, So okay, well they don't want anything to
taint like what I what.
Speaker 2: I don't, But don't watch him when he's fourteen and
call him hot and dumb because that's a.
Speaker 1: Little FBI is watching Crown. You cannot escape, believe me.
Speaker 2: Now, Hey, head over challenge pot dot Com. Joining the
Facebook group. You can also join our fantasy league, which
we'll get it too later. It's so fun, do it? Hey? Tim?
Do you tell us about episode two of Survivor fifty boy?
Speaker 1: Do? I? So? I love Survivor because it always picks
up right where the last episode ended it. That's usually
it does. It's great crown, You'll get used to that.
It's usually with the tribe coming back from tribal council
and talking about who is gone, but in this case,
it's Kyle leaving and the tribe talking about how sad
they are that Kyle's leaving.
Speaker 2: Everybody's really emotional.
Speaker 3: So like, okay, I said this in the pre show,
but for those who weren't listening to pre show, which
is probably most of us, I had a work thing
that kept me really late, so I only got to
the episode within like forty five minutes of us starting tonight,
so I was having to fast forward through something. So
I fast forward through the like the intro intro, and
picked up like as the boat is pulling away, and
as boats pulling away, I thought that they were talking
about Jenna. I completely forgot about Kyle and then everybody's crying,
like why is everybody having such a huge reaction to
Jenna leaving? Like no one seemed to be real upset
when the tribal council, like, I'm confused by this, and
then remember that it was kind oh that's right. Now
there were two people who went home last week.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was the moment I realized that, oh shit,
they really did pick up, like the moment they dropped
off last episode.
Speaker 1: That's survi.
Speaker 2: They didn't which during Tribal Council, I not, as Jeff said,
third person eliminated from Survivor, so.
Speaker 3: Third person voted out, which I said them multiple times
in this episode, and I did not appreciate that. That's right, Yeah,
it's not the start person voted out.
Speaker 2: Which is what I found pretty weird.
Speaker 3: But yeah, yeah, you're right, he says, like two or
three times, but this is only the second person voted up.
Just say third person eliminated.
Speaker 1: No, Well, yeah, as you said, everybody's really sad, and
Genevieve talks about why it's so sad for everybody, and
her basic reason is like it's Survivor, like you're kind
of you have no distractions, you bond instantly and and
sort of you're in a vulnerable, weird state, and so
these things matter more than maybe they would in the
real world.
Speaker 3: And I mean we see that on the Challenge as well,
Like people get super emotional very quickly, they get very
attached very quickly. You see full relationships play out in
the few weeks that they're in these houses because they
have nothing else to do. Yeah, I mean in the
Challenge they can drink, but they it's literally eat, sleep,
and play all with the same Like twenty people.
Speaker 1: You can't escape. There's no there's no getting away from
the person. I mean, it's just, yeah, they're always right there.
Speaker 3: So I get it. Like that's why it's part of
the reason why I really hate the dating shows like
the you know, the Bachelors and they whatever, the what
is it? The the love and the pot.
Speaker 1: That love is blind, Love is blind. I love that one.
Speaker 3: I can't watch any of those things because none of
that ship is real. Like you are, You're forced to
be around these people for an extended period of time,
you're forced to interact with them, you're forced to have
these things happen. None of that ship happens in the
real world.
Speaker 2: So what about Married at First Sight also a trash show.
Speaker 3: I like that one too, don't do any of the
dating shows.
Speaker 2: Amanda used to watch it and I used to get
sucked into it.
Speaker 1: I don't watch it on my own, but most women
I date watch that ship and I will gladly watch
Love is Blind and Married at First Sight gladly it's
but I again, I don't really watch it if I
don't have somebody to talk about it.
Speaker 2: I always find it especially good when the woman starts
crying after the wedding because she's like, I don't think
he's interacted.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that would suck.
Speaker 1: It's so Yeah, those married at first sight when the
other you can tell they're not into each other, are
getting married, it's fucking great.
Speaker 3: I mean severe tangent from our our actual episode, but
for Married at first Sight, Like did these people talk
to each other prior to that?
Speaker 2: Or it's just like the first time you meet him
is when you walk down the aisle to get.
Speaker 3: Married, first time you know anything about this person.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they have like professional matchmakers, so every contestant says
what they're looking for and then they do try to
match it within those like criteria. Yep.
Speaker 2: The interesting thing is, and I haven't really kept super
up with it. But one of the women who did
that cried because she did think he was attractive. They
ended up getting married, you know, doing the thing, but
then she hunt like off her feet fell in love
with them afterwards. They're still married from what I understand,
and have multiple children now, so I didn't.
Speaker 3: The first time they see each other. They are actually
legally getting married.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then that shows like three months or something
like that, and they can divorce at the end of
the show of them do. But yeah, it is. It's
a legal, legit, real marriage. It's kind of weird.
Speaker 3: Can you imagine dating someone and being like, oh, yeah,
you know, I went on the show Married at First Sight.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we talked about it has been episodes ago now,
but like marriage is being deal breakers as you're dating Carlyn,
would that be a deal breaker somebody saying like, yeah,
I got married, it was for a reality show. I
was married three months, I got a divorce. Yeah, maybe,
care is that Like that's a maybe. It's just a
little weird. It's it's super weird. It's super weird. But
I would do that show.
Speaker 3: But honestly, though, you would do that show.
Speaker 1: Because I can get divorced again. Dude, it's great. I
love getting divorced.
Speaker 2: They do it again, but they would immediately move in
with you.
Speaker 1: Oh well that part. Sometimes they do say like I'm
going to sleep at my apartments because they put them
in like a shared home that's like a rental basically,
And so sometimes they do say like I just need
a night to myself. I want to go. I would
do that most now go home. Yeah see uh.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, I'm just saying, like being three times before
the age of forty, big deal breaker, Just saying I
mean you're not before the age of forty.
Speaker 1: Yes, so not not a deal breaker for me. And
it's only one divorce.
Speaker 3: And you get on the show and it's another.
Speaker 1: It's true, all right. So one person that's not super
sad about seeing Kyle go is q Q is looking
at this as an opportunity to say, like, all right, uh,
we got to start over like Kyle was in my alliance.
That's great, he's gone now, so what's next for me?
So I love q Q is the best narrator of
this episode. This guy's a fucking lyritic, but he's so funny.
He's so funny. So we see Q and Colby talking
and they're kind of bonding because they're in the same alliance,
the alliance with Kyle, and so they lost Kyle. And
not only that, but Q doesn't have a vote. He
sold it for the supplies, if you recall, and Coleby
doesn't have a vote. He lost it with the stacking
game with Savannah.
Speaker 3: Oh god, that that was why he lost his vote.
Speaker 1: Yes, so these this alliance is fucking hurting man. It
was Alliance of five, but now they have no votes,
and so they bring in my boy riz God. Uh
Rizzo is annoying, but they need they just need people.
They need support, and so they tell him everything they
tell him. Colby lost his vote.
Speaker 2: Q loss his vote, although Q tweaked the reasoning he
lost his.
Speaker 1: Vote, did he I didn't catch it what Q said.
Speaker 2: He said he had to sell it just to participate
in the challenge.
Speaker 3: He did sell that stuff. I did gain some appreciation
for Rizzo because he as he was sitting down to
that conversation in his confessional, he goes, yeah, I kind
of came in real Hyper to season fifty, and he did.
He came in real Hyper. He's great I'm trying to
kind of back that off and like redo my impression,
my first impression with everybody. And I appreciated the self awareness.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he is self aware, and like I've only seen
him in another season, but this is kind of how
he is. He plays super aggressively. He's kind of shoot first,
think later, kind of.
Speaker 3: A yeah, but I like this. I like this what
twenty four twenty.
Speaker 1: Five young guy? And you can tell he's smart. He's
a smart guy and just sort of I kind of
wants to make a name for himself here, I think,
and I don't. I find him very charming. I really
like him else, I.
Speaker 3: Really appreciate Like I'm trying to figure.
Speaker 1: Out how how to word this, so you're into it.
Speaker 3: I feel like I kind of said, huh.
Speaker 1: You think he's hot, you're into him? No, you like
the skinny guys, you like Armenians.
Speaker 3: No, I do not think that he's hot in any way,
shape or for him.
Speaker 1: Armenians what you hate? Yeah, he's Armenian. You can't tell
it was It was like he talked about it a
lot last season. I'm making a joke. Yeah he's Armenian.
It's like his father's prom ar media.
Speaker 3: I think Tim, this is the first season I've ever watched.
Speaker 1: I don't know anything else, but there's somebody out there
listening to this podcast laughing hysterically because you're not getting
You're not fucking getting what I'm trying to say.
Speaker 3: No, I'm not getting relaid down.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 3: We have talked and we kind of we mentioned this
a little bit last episode. In previous seasons with me
on the show. Prior to me being on the show,
it's been talked about quite a bit of it is
incredibly frustrating when people show up on the Challenge who
know absolutely nothing about the gameplay. They don't know how
the game is played, they don't know any of the players,
they don't know how any of the players play the game,
they don't know what's going on. They come on and
think that they're going to rule the whole thing, and
they do not understand what they're doing. This is it's
really fun to watch this game and see all of
these players. I mean, granted, I get that all of
these players are return players, and I'm sure it might
be a little bit different on a regular season, but
it's really fun to watch this game and see people
who so obviously know, this is how the game was
played ten years ago, This is how the game was
played twenty years ago, this is how the game is
played now. We are playing now, like you cannot play
the game. And it gets mentioned multiple times in this
episode of like people are playing old school games, new
school games, whatever, and same thing happened last episode. It's
really neat to be able to watch a season, watch
a show where people know what's going on, they understand
what's happening, and that they have to tailor their game
to this because they have seen every fucking episode because
they did the goddamn homework.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, and most Survivors, oh nice, Yeah, even on
new seasons where you don't know anybody. Most Survivor players
now are fans of the show.
Speaker 3: Like longer they said last episode. But like it's if
you were just watching Survivor, you may not even notice it,
and it's it's kind of like just an undertone along
with everything. But the fact that everybody seems to kind
of understand that there are different seasons of how this
game has been played. It's just it's so refreshing because
I'm so used to only the veteran players knowing all
of this information and for them to come in and
continue to play the same ship that they have played
every fucking season. Yeah, and then be mad when their
shit doesn't work anymore. Yeah, Johnny and Wes, we're calling
you out.
Speaker 1: Nice to see.
Speaker 3: It's really nice to see the game. I'm I'm appreciate it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's cool. It's cool because like Rizzo, I think,
respects the game, but he's also sort of like, I
want to fucking take out these legends, Like I know
they're legends, I want to take them out. So it's
a respect.
Speaker 3: Not only does he know that they're legends, but he
knows why they're legends. Which, Yeah, there are so many
seasons with the Challenge where new people come in, even
if they've only been there for one season. They come
in and they play one season, they still don't understand
why some of these people are challenging are legends.
Speaker 1: Yep, yep. Frustrating. Yeah, yeah, all right, Sun is coming
up this day, five five guys on the islands. We
see Joe and Christian talking. They're doing camp work, and
then Christian shits his pants. That's this part so weird.
Speaker 3: We'll be so funny.
Speaker 1: When was the last time to shit your pants, wilf
uh No stories, it's Karl. I'm gonna ask you.
Speaker 2: To Colin had been about twenty years.
Speaker 1: Oh long time.
Speaker 2: I think it was after a night of drinking.
Speaker 1: Probably that tends to happen, Yeah, Carlin, have you shit
yourself lately?
Speaker 3: Not lately? The last time I shit myself was eight
years ago.
Speaker 1: All right? What happened? It seems like you have a
you have a specific memory.
Speaker 2: What happened?
Speaker 3: Yes? I do, Okay, it like really pops into my head.
I was at we I have a group of friends
that we used to go up every winter and do
a kind of a late Christmas like ski thing, and
we'd stay in a house. A group of us went
out to a lunch or dinner or something like that
after skiing one day at one of the local restaurants
and Breckenridge. Of the like six people that went to dinner,
four of us got food poisoning and we were all
going home the next day. So I had to drive
from Breckenridge back to my house, which is like two
hours through the mountains with my boyfriend. I didn't realize, well,
I didn't realize that I was that that was going
on until we were getting ready to go to the slope,
so I had all my ski gear on and I
was like, no, no mountain, Yeah I need I need
to go home right now, Like we need, we need
to leave right now. Definitely, thank god I had on
ski gear because it's a little more waterproof. Otherwise the
seats in his car would have been brown.
Speaker 1: And the relationship may like lasted throughout this it is,
that's over for me, man over as you're sitting at
that point, we done. Doesn't matter, doesn't matter.
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, it was.
Speaker 2: Like this is it.
Speaker 1: I'm totally teasing now that Hill.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: Hill did not.
Speaker 2: Ship herself tell Hill stories on the show.
Speaker 1: Oh I'd love to We one time both got food
poisoning from the same dinner. I happened to get to
the toilet first. Thank christ, I was shitting like a
normal person on a toilet. She had to go outside
and ship in the yard. We only had a one
bathroom that was Mary mac will be one bathroom for
the house, and so I had to go out and
spray it with the hose till you couldn't see it.
Speaker 3: An that poor woman.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was married at the time, where that would
have been the end of it. Uh.
Speaker 3: Anyway, it had been a nice person, you would have
given her the toilet.
Speaker 1: I I didn't. I didn't know what was happening, and
I don't she did either. I just knew I had
to take a ship and I went. And then she
had to take a ship and she went. Also, fun
wasn't in like.
Speaker 2: Brimfield or whatever. I don't remember where your house was
off there? She could. She could have just went over
like the ravine that was in, Like.
Speaker 1: That would have been. That would have been a story
right there now. Joe, though, jo siees the whole thing,
and then Joe tells Emily. I think that's personally fucked up.
I don't think that you should go around telling people
that other people ship their pants. You should be cool
and like not make it a big deal.
Speaker 3: Jo, you are living on an island with seven other
people and have nothing else to do. Absolutely anyone I
would have immediately told him, oh my god, pants, I'm
not saying.
Speaker 2: This is your TV, this is what you do. Do
it for enjoy.
Speaker 1: I would be like what you do. I'd be like Christian,
I won't say anything, but you're in my alliance now, dude,
Like you owe me one I will keep to the secret.
Speaker 2: You have to vote at the next vote.
Speaker 1: That's it. You use this for the game.
Speaker 3: Honestly, if I was the one who shipped my pants, yeah,
I may have been embarrassed immediately, but I would have
gone and changed and then cleaned my cleaned my pants
and walked back and be like, oh my god, I.
Speaker 1: That's pretty much what he did.
Speaker 2: How do you how do you clean your pants? Do
you know?
Speaker 3: You just take them off into the ocean and like,
I bet you.
Speaker 2: You take them off when need to put out literally
whin the poet out and then like, you know, kind truly,
I am.
Speaker 3: Really surprised that he didn't immediately walk into the ocean
and just take it all off there.
Speaker 1: I bet that's what he did eventually. But it was
weird the cameraman just following him shooting it like this
ship coming out of his ass, blurt out and ship.
That's weird.
Speaker 3: I was really surprised if they blurred it. If this
were MTV, I don't think they would have this a challenge.
I don't think they wrath like a.
Speaker 1: Little brown streak or something. Right, How bad could it
have been? Yeah, be fine, I could deal with.
Speaker 3: That unless it's red. Yeah, I think they would have.
I don't think they would have blurred it. No, if
that were me, I would have just turned around and
walked straight into the ocean. Yeah, walked straight into the ocean.
Speaker 1: I would have walked home, walked all the way.
Speaker 3: I would have walked into the ocean. I would have
taken off everything on the lower half and like you know,
tried to get some of it out and then to
walk back out of the ocean. I would have taken
my shirt off and you wrapped it around and give
myself a little bit of coverage and then gone to
my bad like gone.
Speaker 1: And hung my stuff.
Speaker 3: I honestly, I was watching this going, how is this
not what he's doing? How is he how is he
even functioning with literal ship dripping down his pants his legs?
Like if that had happened to me, I would have
immediately walked into the ocean. I wouldn't be clean. There're
too many foll and ship down there, like they're already
and they're.
Speaker 1: Already discussed straight. I didn't care. Yeah, this is great.
I love Christian. He handled it as well as he
could have. He just laughed it off. Not a big deal.
Speaker 3: It's not a big I mean, there's no other way
to handle it. If you if you get truly embarrassed,
like to the point that you cannot laugh about it,
you are on the wrong show.
Speaker 2: This is the one where you just go take care
of it and you come back and be like, guess
who shipped their pants today?
Speaker 1: Yep, that's kind of yeah, he kind of owned it. Yeah,
that is what it is, all right.
Speaker 3: If I were Joe, I would have done the exact
same fucking thing. I would have laughed. I would have
been laughing.
Speaker 1: So Joe's for that. I don't like Joe. I don't
like Joe anyway, but I did not like that.
Speaker 2: Is joy Emily laughing so hard at this.
Speaker 1: Emily is wonderful. I love Emily so I like her.
She's great.
Speaker 2: And then he walks back up and she's like, you
have it a bad day.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I would have done that one thousand.
Speaker 1: She's my number two, man, Aubrey is my number one forever.
I love her. Emily's number two. Very cute.
Speaker 3: I like Emily a lot.
Speaker 1: All right. With the reward challenge, Jeff says, bringing the boats,
everybody come to there. It is so Carl. This is
another part of the show. They bring in the tribes
so the other tribes can see the quote unquote new tribes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because they don't they have no clue what's happening
on other tribes when they're not altogether right.
Speaker 3: They don't know who has gone home who.
Speaker 1: Okay, that's why he says, say hello, the new Orange team,
what their real names are. But so Jenna's gone, Nobody
seems shocked. Everybody's going like, all right, that makes sense.
But then the other tribe pulls up where Kyle is gone,
and everybody is crushed by this, notably com especially. They
work together very very closely on season forty eight maybe
I don't know whatever, whatever season it was, yeah, one
of those. So they work together very well, and so
she's crushed. She really is really having a hard time,
and the conversation does seem to be focused mostly on
Kyle and how sad that is until Coach makes it
all about him, brings up the key challenge thing with
Ozzy and ship like that. Uh so Carl and this
is oh, you must have been fastwarding through this, so yes,
so this is in front of everybody. Jeff is sort
of trying to talk about Kyle. Coach interrupts and says, well, hey, listen, yeah, Kyle, Kyle, Kyle,
Yeah that But what I really want to talk about
is that Ozzie said some shit about how I won
that Key Challenge. But I just want to say, Ozzie
and Q made this deal. I was not part of
the deal. The key fell. I got it play. It's
still honorable. He was not, like Coach did not say
anything inappropriate. I I kind of actually support what Coach
was saying, but wrong fucking time to say all of it.
Speaker 3: This is this is when when Ozzie was like, oh, yeah,
Coach is playing the same game. He's always plus.
Speaker 1: Same the same scene, same scene. But yes, it was
wrong timing and he just it made him look very
small and sort of pathetic. And this Joe does the
same thing of like an honor game, on or on
or honor. It's dumb. It's like, you shouldn't do it.
Speaker 3: And I don't know why anyone. Yeah, I don't understand
why anyone who plays any of these games, The Challenge
survivor Big Brother, I don't. I don't care what the
game is. Playing it with honor is bullshit.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, and but that's how Coach always does it.
This is his spiel every time, Like honorable, honorable, Coach says.
Ozzie says, notable thanks to the roundtable. Who gives a
shit about honor. It's not an honorable thing. Yeah, and
it's like it's you're just following the rules of a game, man,
Like he got the key. That's how the game is played.
He won. So yeah, Ozzie's but hurt. I think Ozzy's wrong.
But Coach looks like a dip shit here. Everybody's sort
of laughing at him. He looks small, he looks kind
of pathetic. Anyway, With that round of the Reward Challenge.
Speaker 3: Ready to get to today's reward challenge.
Speaker 1: The first two teams get stuff. So, Carl, this is
just reward. They're not playing for you or anything. This
is just reward.
Speaker 3: The only note that I have on this. Wait, they
are similar to the challenge. These games are played a
lot of times, it seems like a lot of times overwater,
and this one it is literally on top of water.
They're standing on platforms on top of the water. Coach
is playing this in his socks.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, Coach is a weird guy.
Speaker 3: It's like wearing tennis shoes on sand, Like you're playing
this in your everybody else's barefoot and you're playing this
in your socks.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's very I didn't notice that, but he's a
strange man.
Speaker 3: I could not would believe. It's the only note that
I made for all of this.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't make much notes on these challenges because
for the most but they don't. It does only matters
who wins and loses.
Speaker 3: No, but I do. I I have, I have liked
these challenges because they feel like they're not quite as
you know, uh like old school carnival gaming as the
old school challenge games. But we I like that we
get to see all of it, to get to see
everything that they're doing. It's all relatively contained. You can
see how well some one team is doing against the other.
It does it's they are very very fast. Yeah I
get I guarantee this entire game happened, like last episode,
in twenty minutes. It's a very fast thing. So it
wouldn't work for like the challenge. But I really wish
that the challenge would get back to this kind of
spirit of the game. Get rid of the fucking pyrotechnics,
get rid of all of the extra, like all of
the extra bullshit. I don't need them writing on top
of it, like riding on having a car. Some of
them are cool, but like I don't need the them
flying drones. I don't need fucking explosions every thirty seconds.
I don't need them dropping shit out of a helicopter.
I want to see them compete where I can see
everything that's happening. I can see them one team in
comparison into the next, in comparison to the next, like yep,
I love.
Speaker 2: Telling the exactly where everybody is. Yes, this team's barreling
through it. Oh, this team's this seems dead last. They
better hope they could catch up.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, doing it, doing the narration of it, telling
us where and where everybody's at, Like, oh, you know
they're they're doing They're really behind, Like they need to
catch up. They need to catch up. Oh here he's
coming in from behind. Oh look at that, like dove
into that water so fast and got those things. He
hasn't come up yet. There he goes. There's the rate
like seeing all that it was. I mean, it's very
like Monday night football announcer. But at the same time,
like it's it's kind of nice to be like, oh,
we know what's happening in this game.
Speaker 1: Much much better games than the Challenge, like for sure,
especially in the later seasons of the Challenge.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, it's just it's I like the Challenge games
because they are they're long, and they're very intensive, and
they require a lot of skill and like strength and
thought and it it's not a twenty minute game. I
like them for that. But god damn, they need to
figure out a happy medium between the ship that they've
been doing and this sort of thing.
Speaker 2: Yep, these are games just about anybody can do. Anybody
could relatively win. Yeah, every got But the interesting thing
I find with Survivor is they can't. You can't necessarily
train during the show like the Challenge people do, because
if you're just wasting energy for no reason, you're gonna
have no way to replenish it. So if you're training
the beach or whatever, you're gonna like gas out at
the next challenge.
Speaker 3: I mean, technically they could train on the beach, they
could run laps on the beach they really wanted to coach.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so I don't have any notes from this either.
I don't care about the challenges. I have that Camilla
sits out for this one. So this is the kind
of a new new Survivor rule. If you sit out
for one, you can't sit out for the other. So
Jeff says, famili you have to play the immunity there there.
Speaker 3: I totally agree with that because.
Speaker 2: When they've had injured people before, they've kind of used
this as a way to keep them out of challenges
and stuff, but keep them in game yeap.
Speaker 1: Or even just really bad physical players like Sondra, who
is a two time champ, she's won this show twice,
but she's terrible at all these challenges, so they call
her the set out Queen, like she's always sitting down.
Speaker 3: Oh interesting, Okay, anyway.
Speaker 1: So my I have that Mike White crushes this ship.
This is the one where Mike White like fucking just passes.
Speaker 3: Somebody Camilla on the sidelines. Look at that.
Speaker 1: Oh, Mike is crushing at the season.
Speaker 3: You know, you know that he's sitting at home watching
this ship on TV being like, yeah, look at me.
Speaker 1: He's loving it. He's loving it. We have Aubrey. She's
the only one that misses the target as she jumps
off and swings. But personally, I think that's great because
we get to see her do it again. She's so pretty,
isn't She's so pretty? Carlyn? Okay, so she's great.
Speaker 3: Yes, Aubrey is the only one to actually miss it,
but who is I think Savannah was maybe the first
one to jump for the rings when she when she
jumped for the rings, I thought that she was meant
to grab another bat and hit another another thing. And
when she completely just did not grab a bat and
then did not hit me thing, I was like, the
fuck are you doing? You completely completely bypassed. Oh oh,
she rocked it.
Speaker 1: Check your tech mas. I just sat you a very
funny thing from the Survivor subur speak of Savannah going
on the water. Uh, it's Savannah and oh was it
her boobs out? No, it's.
Speaker 3: For those yep, for those of you who are just
listening to us on your podcast app. If you have
ever seen the Nirvana never Mind naked Baby in the
swimming Pool cover, this is Savannah. I mean not naked,
but Savannah in kind of the same underwater releasing the rings,
and it's it's pretty good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's funny.
Speaker 2: When she gets back up.
Speaker 3: Come out. They blurred the whole thing blur.
Speaker 2: This means a booze popped out.
Speaker 1: This show.
Speaker 3: And I don't think they like fully put. I think
it was like bottom half of the nipple and down.
Speaker 1: Even better, even better, it's my favorite part. I do
like an underboob. I gotta be honest with you all now.
Speaker 3: On hot like someone who can see it every day.
Under boop is hot.
Speaker 1: I'm a big side boot little to the imagination also hot.
All right, So I have the Devin's wins it for
first place, Coach wins it for second. The coach is
kind of crushing it this season, actually, kind of in
front of physical perspective.
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is when D at one point in time
yell oh no this later on yells at him to
get his head in the game, which I thought was
a real non sequitur.
Speaker 1: But D kind of sucks. I hate D. Yeah, I'm
not a fan of But this is also where at
the end of it, Coach gives something about like an
enemy can become your adversary and your adversary enemy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's like, do you.
Speaker 1: Know, like those are the same words, Coach, Like what
are you trying to? Like, what are you actually trying
to say.
Speaker 3: I feel like he was trying to. Yeah, I don't know.
It was weird when he was trying.
Speaker 1: I don't really know he's weird. We're back at camp
drinking coconut water. Sour coconut water sounds gross? Yep?
Speaker 3: Was it so? Was it bad?
Speaker 1: They can talk about that.
Speaker 3: They had it gone bad.
Speaker 1: They were talking about whether it was Yeah, whether it
was too early to drink it or too late to
drink it. I don't know. But this is like just
sort of I love this camp shit where you can
tell they're just sitting around for twenty hours at a
time with nothing to do. But when sour coconut water
hits the scene, it's like everybody wants to try it.
Everyone wants to be like included in this sour coconut shit.
Love it?
Speaker 3: Would you try it?
Speaker 1: Yep?
Speaker 3: Were you upset with?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 3: One puked.
Speaker 1: A little? I do like seeing people puke. One of
my favorite part favorite things in life.
Speaker 2: Charlie pants. I don't know if I would be like,
let's just eat random stop.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true too. This is where we're seeing a
lot of Christian not yeah Christian Christian, That's what I
meant so Aubrey my girlfriend. If you guys remember Aubrey,
she's the pretty one on the show, prettiest one. She's
having a hard time at campus. She's talking about everyone's
a lunatic. She can't get a read on the game.
Speaker 3: She's uh yeah, she seems real disconnected.
Speaker 1: Well, and she sort of is like when you look
at that tribe, she is sort of the one everybody's
kind of planning around her and they're not including her
and shit, so I think that she sort of has
a right to feel a little excluded from things.
Speaker 3: But okay, so is she. I get that they're planning
around her, but they've been there for six days now.
It feels like she somehow has like distanced herself from
her her tribe. Like you would think that in six
days they would have made some sort of she would
have made some sort of a connection. Yeah, And it
feels like it happened immediately where she kind of set
that boundary of I don't know if I want to
like really be close to you guys, because last episode
we were talking about the weird conversation between her and Genevieve. Genevieve, yeah, yeah, yeah,
and she brings that up again too, that yeah, the
Geneviev thing was weird.
Speaker 1: She's feeling just sort of isolated, like and maybe some
of it is her fault, but at this point she's
sort of feeling like, do I have a future in
this game? Should I just give up and go home?
But at the end of this she does say like, well,
I'm not gonna like I've gotta fight, I gotta try
to do this. But we see Genevieve and I love this.
I did not think about this sort of wrinkle in
the boomerang idol plan. But Genevieve thinks, well, listen, I
got a boomerang idol and send it to Christian or
to Ozzy. So she's thinking, what if somebody else found
a boomerang idol and send it to Aubrey? And because
Aubrey has been like weird and cagy with her bag,
and so Genevieve thinks Aubrey's got this fucking idol.
Speaker 3: Okay. So at this point in time, I was wondering,
how one have boomerang idols been a thing in the past?
Speaker 2: Never?
Speaker 1: Never?
Speaker 3: Okay, So did Genevieve. I mean I know that she
talked about it. She asked if Aubrey had a boomerang
idol in her confessional, I don't remember it. Did she
say does she have a boomerang idol? Or did she
just say does she have an idol? To her fellow
tribes me members.
Speaker 1: She probably just said an idol, because for Aubrey it
would be just an idol.
Speaker 3: It would also I would if Genevieve said does she
does she have a boomerang idol to the rest of
her tribe, it would have kind of given given away
the goat to the rest of them, like.
Speaker 1: Yeah, different type of idol. Yeah.
Speaker 3: So my other question was, are there is there more
than one of the same type of idol? Which we
find out letter clearly there is.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean it's a good bet that if one
beach has a boomering idol, they probably all do same.
Speaker 3: As like theoretically all tribes would have the same kind
of idols available to them.
Speaker 1: Yes, because like boomerang idol is a new idol, but
there is like beware idols and beware advantages, and those
are always the same amongst all the tribes. So you
gotta assume if one person on your tribe finds it,
somebody else in the other tribe is also found it okay,
and so yes. In this case, Genevieve was thinking, well, shit,
two tribes could be sending us idols. Maybe Aubrey has one,
And because Aubrey is sort of on the outskirts, she
gets basically the rest of the tribe to help distract
Aubrey and also go through Aubrey's bag to see if
she has the idol. This is within the rules of Survivor,
Carl and you are allowed to do this.
Speaker 3: Oh no, I have no. I love I love that
they did this. I think this is fantastic. It's such
good gameplay, like having all of the different steps of
like we're gonna have someone go to her to distract her.
We're gonna have someone in between to let us know.
We're gonna have someone who's just their stand watching what's
going on. Someone. Yeah, we're gonna have someone going into
the bag and not just going into the bag, but
then like setting things out in the exact order and
then putting them back in in the exact order. My
question the reason why I raised my fingers, would you
keep your if you had an idol, would you keep
it on your person or would you keep it in
your bag person.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but.
Speaker 3: I would have a sports bra on while I'm there
and it would forever be tucked in between my boobs.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, we saw later the Aussie as underwear.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah. Why would you ever keep it in your bag?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Well, I think people keep it in their bags because survivor,
there's not always a place on your body to hide it. Carl,
and you've got the big old boobs, you can hide
stuff between them.
Speaker 3: I mean they're not they're really not that big. But like, okay,
so you think of.
Speaker 1: A savannah, Like a savannah can't hide shit into boobs
and she's wearing a bikini, like like, where's she going
to hide it?
Speaker 3: Okay, you know to a challenge where you're gonna be
jumping into water, then yes, obviously you can't have it
in your in your broad whatnot. But if you're just
hanging around at camp, like I assume that they get
a little bit of a notice like, hey, we're going
to a challenge, in which case you can could, like
you know somehow try to like, oh well I need
to I need to, you know, make sure I've got
on my swimsuit or whatever. Yeah, you'd have you know,
thirty seconds to pull it out and shove it back
into your bag. But like, if I'm just hanging out
a camp, that shit is either in my underwear or
in my bra.
Speaker 1: Yeah, one of the two. Yep, they think it might
be in the back, so they're checking that. I like
cues cues, the lookout, and his sign of if Aubrey's coming,
his sign as he screams, let's go.
Speaker 3: Just like, that's a.
Speaker 1: Weird that's a weird thing. If you're just standing around,
then somebody else let's go.
Speaker 3: That's why are you yelling right now? Like we're not
going anywhere. But I love it.
Speaker 1: Survivor, He's fucking great. But I love so they go
through the whole bag. There's nothing in there. Yeah, And
I love this because you know we're not there yet. Yes,
I love that this comes back because Aubrey.
Speaker 3: I thought that was great, but no I did. I've
I really appreciated that they could go through her bag
because we don't. I'm gonna I'm gonna be doing this
all season where I'm tying this back to the challenge
because this is my first time watching the show. We
never I can't think of a single time where we
have seen people like really go through another player's stuff.
We've seen like who is it Camilla, or we've seen
we've seen I know Kara grabbed uh Jordan's bag and
like throw it in the pool. But his bag, it
was a water proof bag, so it just floated on top.
Speaker 1: We've seen Tanya, Yes, there we go.
Speaker 2: Through the bag in the and the water girls through
what's her name's bag over the balcony.
Speaker 3: Yep, bag over the balcony. We've seen multiple times where
one woman has thrown and it's almost always went in.
One woman has thrown someone else, some other woman's bag
of clothes into the water, so all of them are
just all throughout the pool. We've seen that sort of thing,
but we've never seen them like, hey, we are trying
to find out if this person has this special thing.
Even the season, the season that this would have made
sense for is the season that Johnny that they had
all the notes that kept showing up on everybody's beds.
Speaker 1: That's what I was gonna say is that in the challenge,
there's no game mechanic like this of sort of advantages
that not everyone knows about.
Speaker 2: I like that you pointed out it's usually women throwing
it is they're clothes, because if a dude did it
to another dude, they would just be like, great, that's
how I wanted it, all the wet clothes on, and
be like this is how I like it.
Speaker 3: So it would have accomplished like it would have been
Joey Tribani showing up in all the chandler's clothes.
Speaker 2: Yes, all the clothes I have on comfandos.
Speaker 1: For clarity, Carlin, this probably makes sense to you, and
you probably understood this without me telling you. But if
they did find an idol, they cannot take it. That
is against the rules.
Speaker 3: You can assume I have to, and I kind of
assumed that with like how they were unpacking her bag
to make sure that they knew all the layers, so
exactly where if they found an aisle the idol, they
knew exactly where that idol was sitting at.
Speaker 1: Right, It's also okay to say we searched your bag
and found the idol, but you just by finding it
doesn't mean you take it. But the idol can be
given away, just has to be given intentionally. It can't
be stolen.
Speaker 3: You can't be stolen. You can't steal it from somebody. Yep,
I kind of assumed, but no, I just I appreciated
this because it just it's kind of fun to be like, well,
I mean, like you live on an island with a
bunch of other people, like your shit is private, but
not really.
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, so we're back. We're at the other
other camp. Now, this is where Jonathan goes fishing, and
this he's so dumb. He sits and he talks to
the camp and he's like, I'm playing a different game
this season. Everybody thinks I'm just a strong guy and stupid,
but I'm not. Now I'm playing a smart game. But
I'm gonna act stupid. But he gives no real dumb
He doesn't give any strategy. He's just saying words.
Speaker 3: Don't is the second episode that he's done the sun.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like you're not, I'm sorry.
Speaker 3: Sorry.
Speaker 1: At my point is like, just tell me the strategy.
Don't tell me that you're playing smart. Tell me the
smart thing that you're doing. And so he's not done that.
So I don't think he's playing a smart game.
Speaker 3: No, he and Ozzie are doing the same thing. They
have both last episode it was Ozzy. This episode it
was him. Both of them have said in the past,
I have been the provider, I have been the strength.
I have been the you know, the big man on campus.
This season, I'm going to pay play a strategic game,
acting like I was doing that. But neither of them
actually gave a strategy. Neither of them are actually doing
the smart thing. They are just playing the game that
they've always played. Saying that they're playing a smart game.
Speaker 1: That's exactly it. They're both really stupid guys, and I
don't think that they can play strategically. They both know
they should, but I don't think that they're able to do.
Speaker 3: Jonathan's still hot and dumb, so honestly, it might just
be the fact that he's tall.
Speaker 1: What do you think about the dreads?
Speaker 3: You like the dreads?
Speaker 2: That's his one flaw.
Speaker 3: Dreads It okay. He's also he's he's got like a
receiving hairline and very obviously thin.
Speaker 1: Nothing wrong with that, nothing wrong with that, nothing wrong
with the receding Carlyon should take it back, say you're
sorry for saying that.
Speaker 2: I know the people who have a receding hairline and dreads.
It's like doubly awful.
Speaker 1: It's like the count and crows. Guy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh yeah, no, I mean just shave it. A
bald head looks great. Yeah, my co host are the
perfect examples. A bald head looks great.
Speaker 1: Thanks. Yeah, Jonathan should do all bald head I agree
with that too.
Speaker 2: Here, I'll go in solidarity with with that idea.
Speaker 3: There you go, we'll be taking off the hat. So
send me coming after you, man.
Speaker 1: It's nice. Shine it up, all right. So Coach and
Jonathan are out there trying to fish, and Coach gets
this major leg crampies, like just floating out there like
it's dying.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 1: They have to bring in the safety swimmer. People put
Coach on a boat bringing back to the shore. Very
embarrassing for Coach in my opinion.
Speaker 2: But I'm still strong.
Speaker 1: Guys, strong Mike Mike White, who is just so like,
he's fun. Every time he comes on the screen. He's hilarious.
He compares the coach to a bug in a pool.
I'm just picturing that. It is just fucking hilarious to me.
Uh yeah. And on the height of this is the d.
This is the only time we see D this episode.
Who again, I don't like she said the tribe is weird.
She points out Coach and Chrissy specifically as being the
ultra weird people. And this is where we see the
montage of Chrissy just being sort of general abrasive around camp,
just sort of bossy, sort of to mom like sort
of too.
Speaker 3: Like yeah, I mean surely say abrasive, but definitely mother hen.
Speaker 1: Ish Yeah, yes, uh sort of annoying, Uh, sort of annoying. Yeah,
even like Charlie says she's annoying. Charlie makes a.
Speaker 2: Is it gonna bring up Charlie's like, usually I like
myself on the Older Woman Alliance, but you know the
way she's been, I'm going to extricate myself over here
to get away from that.
Speaker 1: So we are seeing cracks in this alliance or in
this tribe. It does seem like Coach is on the
ouse even though he's winning for them, and Chrissie's on
the ouse because of just her general personality.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Uh. Savannah and Devn's are going on a walk. Devon's
tells Savannah like, hey, your story is not very realistic,
like did you actually win an advantage when you did
your your journey? And Savannah lies again and says no,
I did not, which is weird because you, like, these
guys are allies, and Devon's is saying like, hey, nobody
buys your shit. What's up? Savannah should have told Devons
here yet.
Speaker 3: She should have she she would have gained some serious
I mean yeah, she would have gained some serious points
with Devons at least, who has a pretty strong fucking alliance.
He would have been able to go to bat for
her in the same way they SuRie went to bat
for Ozzie. Yeah, if she had just told him like, yeah,
you know, I did, I got a block of vote. Like,
in my head, a block of vote does not seem
like that big of an advantage, especially for someone who
seems to be on the ounce with everyone else on
the team.
Speaker 1: Yeah. No, you're exactly right. And as we've said, uh,
information is currency. It would have meant a lot for
her to say, like, I have a block vote. Do
you want to see it? I'll show it to you
to prove that this is what I have. Yeah, would
have made her a more trustworthy person. We see her
get voted out, and I do think that this is
because this is part of it. Like nobody can trust her,
even Devons, who is supposed to be an ally, nobody
believed her story that she didn't get advantage.
Speaker 3: I mean, circling back to last episode when we were
talking about this, she absolutely should have just told everybody, look,
I got a block about yeah, yes.
Speaker 1: Because everybody's looking at her sort of just yeah without try. Yeah,
it's just sort of like, what what are you hiding?
What's up? So Ozzie walks in on them as they're talking,
and Ozzie basically says, like, Hey, whoever you guys want
to vote out, I don't care, Like it's as long
as it's not me, as long as it's not Joe,
I don't care who it is. And that was weird
to me because I didn't know that Ozzie and Joe
were that close. I thought it was Ozzie and Serie.
So it was weird to me that Ozzi threwout Joe
right here.
Speaker 3: It feels like Ozzie's trying to hide his like this.
That is the strategicy of Ozzie's game. He's trying to
hide that he's in an alliance with Serien.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that is one of the things that's maybe
the only thing he's doing well strategically. I don't think
people have figured it out yet they.
Speaker 3: Seem to kind of be cluing into it a little bit. Yeah,
but they're not sure.
Speaker 1: Yep. So Devins has his alliance. His alliance is Emily
and Christian, but they are trying to recruit him. I
don't know who I mean by him. Do I mean
Ozzie or do I mean her with Savannah Devon's and
who Christian they're trying to They're trying to recruit Joe. Yes, yes, yeah,
so as Devon's. As Devin says, like Joe, this goes
very terribly, like really kind of goes out of control.
Speaker 3: So Devin says he did not get photed out in
this episode.
Speaker 1: Yes, but he's on thin ice for sure. Uh. Devin says,
like Joe, let's go to the water hole. Let's let's
let's chat as they're leaving.
Speaker 3: Sorry ahead, sorry really quickly. Okay, So they have just
unlimited water available to them.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but they've got to walk to the walk to
the waterhole.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Okay. Is it the same watering hole for all
three teams or okay, they each team has their own. Well,
but they have unlimited water. Okay. I wasn't sure on
that in the first few episodes, so that's good to.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I think it's clean water. I don't I
don't think have to boiler. I think I think that
they are supplied.
Speaker 3: Literally, if you if you, if you are deprived of things,
the thing you want to be deprived of is food,
because you are, you will die significantly faster if you're
deprived of water.
Speaker 1: Three weeks without food, three days without water, it's crazy. Uh,
and so yeah, so they wander off, but before they do,
Savannah pulls Devon's aside and just says like, hey, are
you gonna recruit him into the alliance. Joe sees them whispering,
and Joe does not like it, and that kind of
again taints the whole conversation between Devon's and Joe, which
Jesus Christ, Yeah, yeah, this is crazy. I like Joe
wasn't wrong for asking. I do think that's like a strategy.
I think he was wrong for pushing so hard and
being so sort of like aggressive about it. But I
think he got the information he needed when he said
to Devon's like, Hey, what were you guys talking about?
And Devon's clearly lied, like an unbelievably clear lie to me,
if I'm if I'm Joe, I just think like, okay,
you're a liar, and then I just like let it
go and I move on. But by Joe continuing to
press this, I think is what kind of did him
in my opinion.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he went from zero to one hundred roll fast.
Speaker 1: Yeah. But Devin's Devon's was also fucking weird here too, right,
like he yeah, like bad liar Devon's Like that was
that was not good?
Speaker 3: Yeah, like Devon's you could have you could have. Devon's
seems like a smart enough guy that he could have
thought on his feet and been like, Okay, Savannah wants
to start an alliance with me, and in quotations with
me and Joe like I'm just gonna play into it.
Just immediately tell him what's going on. So then she
and Joe both think that we are in an alliance. Yeah,
and then I need to go let Christian know immediately. Hey,
heads up, we're in a secret alliance with these two,
even though our actual alliance is this.
Speaker 1: Yep, they fully Devon should have fully told the truth here. Yes,
that a Savannah and I were kind of thinking about
having you an alliance. What's up? Because yeah, it makes
the whole thing weird. Now yeah yeah, uh, so that'll
come back to bite everybody in the back in the
back later. But in the meantime, we have Devin's Christian
and Surreen and they're talking about doing a jotation, which
I fucking love that, uh, because they're all talking about
leaving Joe out of the vote that Joe is playing
again this honorable noble game based on truth and whatever,
all this shit. Nobody, nobody wants to fuck with this
because it's just it's hard to navigate around it.
Speaker 3: And this is one of those one of those times
where when I was talking about like the old school
game versus a new school game, and people understand that
there are these different games that everyone has played in
the past and in the future and the current time.
Like it's it's really cool to see that everybody understands
all of these different games. They've all seen all this
shit happen before. I love it. I love it, and
I didn't realize it until this episode, Like I didn't
realize that was a thing and I started cloning it. It
was goddamn. We never see this on the Challenge.
Speaker 1: God, Carlin, Carlin's gonna be a Survivor fan. Look at her,
go I don't say that, But so they're they're just
trying of trying to leave Joe out. And they even
have a plan of like you talk to Joe like
while the rest of us talk about who's going to
vote for who. So that's kind of the current plan.
And next we see Christian wandering the jungle and he
stumbles upon the fucking Billie Eilish boomerang idol again, Boom Christian.
Christian's rocking this season. I love Christian, I really, I.
Speaker 3: Do really like him. He's really fun. Uh shooting his
pants at all? Love for that. Okay, So we talked
about whether all of the teams have all of the
tribes have I'm gonna keep calling them teams close enough,
stuck away, whether they all get the same type of idols.
If he opened it and read that whole thing and
was like, I don't want to deal with this, could
he wrap it back up, put it back where it
was at and walk away.
Speaker 1: I don't think this one. You can. The beware advantage
says that on the outside, before you open it, you
have to put it back. I don't. I once you
open a note, it is I think you're that gets you?
Speaker 3: All right, You're stuck with it, regardless of I mean theoretically,
regardless of what the Okay.
Speaker 1: Yeah it doesn't. It never says that in this season,
but that I think that that's how this would be played, Okay. Uh.
Christian has the same kind of debate about the idol
that Genevieve had, like do I want to give this
somebody that is going to be in a strategic alliance
with me? Or do I want to give it to
somebody that's going to suck it up so I get
it back later. Ultimately he sends it to Aubrey, my girlfriend.
Remember prettiest woman on the season. You guys know who
I'm talking.
Speaker 3: About with the glass.
Speaker 1: She's so pretty, she's the Aubrey. Yeah, she's great, she's great. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I loved that he sent it to her. But knowing,
knowing because we've seen this once already, knowing that the
person who gets it doesn't know who it's coming from,
it kind of feels like it defeats the advantage that
he thinks that he's getting.
Speaker 1: Well, the advantage would come if they make if they
both make the merge, Christian can pull Aubrey aside and
say like, hey, I know you have the boomerang thing
because I send it to you. True, So that would
be the ADVANTA. Yeah, that's the advantage here. Yeah, you're
setting up to a future alliance. You're hoping you both
make the merch or you're hoping Aubrey gets out before
the merge and you get the idol.
Speaker 3: Could he potentially tell her at a challenge, they're not
really allowed to talk like that, but he maybe could
motion signs. So basically at challenges, the teams are really
they as far as we know, they're not really allowed
to kind of interact with each other.
Speaker 2: You don't really get like alone time. Yeah, as soon
as they line up, Jeff's talking to him blah blah blah.
So unless I guess like if they were it was
only one end and she was on the end of
the next team.
Speaker 3: While something's over, like heads up.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we've seen some things like that. If there's two
people in the sitout bench, sometimes they'll like talk about
the game on the sit out bench things like that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but generally have to luck out where both of
them are on the sit out bench. Yeah, that's true.
We did watch them all pull up right before the game.
Then it seemed like a pretty fast turnaround of like
Jeff is very quickly saying, Okay, this is the game,
this is what we're doing. We're into the game. We
finished the game. Okay, goodbye. Everybody gets back on their
boats and leaves.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So, yeah, it doesn't seem quite like the challenge where
they're like they come in and then like you know
that there's you know, they're standing there for half an
hour getting everything set up and take TJ.
Speaker 1: And and everybody's in one house and they can talk. Yeah,
this is not like that.
Speaker 2: Yep, not until the merge.
Speaker 1: Okay, So Aubrey's touched. Aubrey loves this. She's crying and
personally I love this because she's already been sort of
deemed as like safe, like non entergy. Yeah, they've checked
her back for the idol. She doesn't have the boomerang idol.
She's safe, Like we can we can stop at Aubrey
and then she fucking gets the boomerang idol. Boom. Yes,
I love this. I love this all right. So we
get Queue and Rizzo. They're bonding. They're looking for like
crabs and she's to eat on the beach. And stuff
like that, and you just like, I like Rizzo, Rizzo's
lazy ship. Uh, and then Colby says generally the same thing.
Colby says, Angelina is like a statue at camp. She
just stands there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I don't disagree with that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I love it.
Speaker 2: She's staring into the fire.
Speaker 1: Yeah, true, I do that. I mean, yeah, I just
gotta look.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they could have been picking very stylize shots, but yeah,
just the things that they were showing, it was like, yeah,
that does kind of seem like she's just kind of
hanging out.
Speaker 1: I love this because this is this is very old
school survivor of like, can't is a community affair. You
have to help around camp or we're gonna fucking beat
your ass. It matters less than the new seasons. But
obviously Colby and Q are very much like you better
fucking help.
Speaker 3: Yeah, which is interesting because Colby is an ultimate player,
but Q seems he's a newer player, right, Yeah.
Speaker 1: He's a newer player a couple seas. But he's got
a good work ethic, I guess. Yeah, he doesn't like
people standing around doing exact shit. Yeah, all right with that.
One of the immunity challenge.
Speaker 2: Shall we get to today's immunity challenge?
Speaker 1: Yes, we should, they're coming in. I noticed Aubrey had
some good cleavad showing during these shots. You guys notice
that I did not. I did not, But she's looking good.
She's looking good.
Speaker 2: I did enjoy this immunity challenge, so.
Speaker 1: I did too. Christy sits out of this immunity Challenge,
which seemed like a weird choice to me because I
thought she was really capable in challenges.
Speaker 3: Well, I also kind of figured that they would have
put her because her team had talked about how annoying
she was. They would have put her into the challenge
because I let me let me pause that. So I
was under the assumption that if they sit out, then
there's the possibility, like on the on the challenge, a
lot of times, if people sit out, they either are
automatically voted into the you know, whatever the thing is
at the end the you know, the the gauntlet or whatever,
or they are automatically not up for grabs. I think
it's one of those two things.
Speaker 1: Neither neither on that neither on sur it.
Speaker 2: Does give them I mean, they don't get to control it,
but it does have them sort of an argument. She's like, hey,
I didn't lose the challenge, and that was.
Speaker 3: Part of the reason why I was kind of the
Oh I didn't lose the thing. I was kind of
surprised that they let her sit out, Like, Okay, well,
wouldn't you want her in the game so that if
you guys lose, you have someone to potentially point a
finger at if she was maybe the reason why you lost.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but yeah, it doesn't ultimately matter who who sets
out on this particular game. M So again, I don't
have a ton of notes because I don't really care
about There's game as much.
Speaker 3: The only note that I have is that in the
very last bit, so like they they have to do
the you know, the thing where they're they're moving the
ball along this giant snake thing yea, which oh, at
one point in time, Jeff says that the snake's weigh
two hundred pounds, and it sounds like it seems like
those it's two hundred pounds cumulative, which between the three snakes,
So really they're like sixty five pounds a piece.
Speaker 1: Oh no, I can't bear right, No, what the snakes
are sixty five pounds they gotta be twouter each, right, the.
Speaker 3: Way that they were carrying them, there's no way that
it is two hundred pounds.
Speaker 1: I think there was. Yeah, maybe it was back of
a bag of concrete is eighty five pounds. Yeah, I
guess that's one little bag of concrete. No, you're right,
those are big old snakes.
Speaker 3: I think that they're They probably are two hundred pounds.
It just it looks like it was way too easy
for them to be here. And maybe it's just because
I'm so used to people on the challenge carrying things
that are so much heavier than that.
Speaker 1: It looked easy for some dying, it looked easy for
Genevieve and Rizzo were struggling, man like they couldn't do it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess that's true.
Speaker 2: And we got to talk about Jonathan's amazing role out
of the rope.
Speaker 3: Like jump and roll out of it. Yeah, it was
very like, lam on my.
Speaker 1: Back, what are you doing dumb?
Speaker 3: So what I was saying, So the last bit of
the challenge where you have three players who are guiding
that ring that's holding a ball, trying to get it
across this big giant snake, it's only like three inches wide.
The first time the ball falls off, D immediately says, coach,
get your head in the game. Such a non sequitur.
I was so confused as to where that. To me,
that came completely out of left field. Yeah, Like, it
just felt like she was because of the thing the
comments that they had made in their confessionals and what
not about him and Chrissy. It was why are you
why are you ragging on him? Like there are three
people who are trying to guide this ball, He's not
the only one. Why are you ragging on him? I
just it felt weird.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I do. I kind of wonder if she did,
like a little a strategy thing of like if she's
trying to get rid of coach, she now could say like, oh,
coach fucked up the snake thing, you know, because maybe
people are thinking of that that It.
Speaker 3: Felt like she was trying to do hard to make
it his fall. I don't know. I don't like D.
There may be a big reason. The big reason why.
It might be because she was working around with Johnny Banas,
but I just don't like her. She was she annoy
the shit out of me when she was on the challenge.
She's not She's done almost nothing on this game.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't like d either. I don't like to either,
But I did like the Snake game. I thought that
was cool. I like seeing Colby fucking beast mode this thing.
Colby rocked it, pulling that big old snake and shit,
he did a good job.
Speaker 3: This was a very challenge like game.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, this is cool. It was fun to watch. Ultimately,
Purple and Teal they win Immunity. Orange is going to Tribal.
That's the same team that we saw go to travel
last time. If you've forgotten, that is Christian, Joe, Ozzy, Emily,
Devin's and Savannah.
Speaker 2: Was it Purple or I was doing really bad and
Siri at the beginning, I think it was Purple.
Speaker 3: I think it was Purple.
Speaker 2: They were like really far behind and then all of
a sudden they have just like cold you mentioned, Colby
just fucking like boosted them and got them way ahead.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they I feel like they've done that. They
did that last episode too, where they were not like, oh,
maybe I was maybe just Orange. I don't know, but
I feel like they've They've done a few games where
they've kind of been Purple and Orange have kind of
been in the lower tiers of the of the game,
and then Purple is just surged ahead.
Speaker 1: Yep, all right, so yes, Orange is going back to
tribal Uh. We see them back at camp. We find
out oz and I guess not find out, but we
are reminded that Ozzie has an idol and an extra
vote and he says like, I'm gonna use this if
I have to, So he's you know, bound to determine
to make next episode anyway. We see Emily and Siree talking. Oh,
this is where Siri shines, guys, this is where you
figure find out why fucking badass player.
Speaker 3: My only note for this whole well, I have two notes,
but the big one was I can one thousand percent
understand why Siri has made it so far in this
game for so many seasons. Yeah, her social game is
on fire. This is a masterclass is in a social game?
This is insane to watch.
Speaker 1: Yes, and if you totally and if you notice Carlyn,
the social game is literally all Siri has. She's not
good at the physical game, and we learned later she's
never had an advantage in this game, which again I
didn't even though I've watched every season I didn't realize this.
She has never had a legitimate advantage ever in all
of her whatever. This is her fifth season, I think. Uh,
and so to go as far as she's gone, and
to do as well as she's done with no physicality
and no advantages, all just sort of social strategic is
pretty very impressive. Uh. And so Emily tells SuRie, Hey,
I'm thinking about voting Ozzie. But Ozzi and Suri are
like paired up. Apparently nobody knows that, or Emily would
have never said this to Siri. Yep, and SERI doesn't.
Speaker 2: This is where secret alliances pay off.
Speaker 1: Totally, especially when you're talking to somebody smart like SuRie,
who does not give it away that I'm working with Ozzy.
She instead says like, ooh, Ozzie, that's interesting. Tell me
about why Ozzie would be good. Now, let's talk about Savannah.
And then all of a.
Speaker 3: Sudden, it's like such a good master class of turning
this shit around in a way that does not guide
Emily to think that she is trying to guide her
in a certain way.
Speaker 1: Totally master class.
Speaker 2: This is what I lost watch. I like, even though
they're in a secret alliance. She kind of trash talks
them a little bit, just yeah, kind of put everybody
in these She's like, well, I mean sure, but his
social game sucks, and they're like, yeah, you're right, it does.
Speaker 1: She's not lying either, Yeah, yeah, Siri's fucking awesome. This
is why. Yep uh. And so now we see Syrien
is kind of hitting everybody up, saying like, hey, I
know everybody's kind of thinking Ausie, but what about Savannah,
And we see her one by one, like changing the
tide and stuff. Now gonna be Savannah. Ozzie and Serie
kind of circle up and do their one on one,
and Ozzie is so touched by everything that Saria has
done he gives Suri his extra vote.
Speaker 3: Okay. So my other note to this this part was, Okay,
I know that you can give away an idol unless
it explicitly says you can't give it away. You can
give it away, yep. One if you if I give
the idol to you, Tim, can you then potentially give
it to Wolfe? Or can it only be given once? Okay?
So you can give it as many times one okay, yes.
Speaker 1: And you can also say, by the way, you can
say like hey, I'm going to give you this idol,
but you have to give it back to.
Speaker 3: Me and then if it has to come back.
Speaker 1: Nope. I could agree to that and do whatever I want.
I can pass it off. I can. Yeah, it's because
you're allowed to lie and Survivor like, Yeah, but you
have to you have to willingly give it to me
the idol yea or or it has no power.
Speaker 3: Okay, can you do that with any advantage? I mean,
clearly you can do that with the with the extra votes,
unless its Savannah. If Savannah wanted to give her block
a vote to Colby, she.
Speaker 1: Could unless it says explicitly that you cannot.
Speaker 3: Yes, okay, okay, yep uh.
Speaker 1: This on when we find out Soria has never had advantage.
This means a lot to her that that Ozzie trusts
her not only with the information, but with the advantage itself.
This is like you know, in the game of Survivor.
This is the ultimate trust. It's it's giving away something
of extreme value in the game.
Speaker 3: I was surprised, but because that is a from from
my understanding so far in this game that that seems
like a huge deal.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is, And I mean to restarted crying, like,
so it's that big of a deal, Like it is
a big deal. This this means a lot in terms
of that to personal alliance. It's a yeah there, even.
Speaker 2: Though they're cool. I was shocked, Yes, like here's a reward.
Speaker 1: Yeah he too. I thought he would tell her about it,
but I was surprised he gave it to her, Like
that's yeah, that's a I know.
Speaker 3: I when he when he started saying when he said,
you know, I, when he was starting to say that
he has an extra vote, I was expecting him to say,
I have an extra vote, and I'm going to use
it for this, Like I didn't think he was gonna say,
and I'm going to give it to you. I thought
he was going to say, I'm going to use it
in the vote tonight to help us do what we
need to to, like to save our alliance.
Speaker 1: Is there one of these safe Yeah.
Speaker 3: I did not expect him to say, and I'm gonna
give it to you.
Speaker 1: I didn't either, And maybe this is strategic from ozit.
I guess we'll see how this kind of plays out
in the end. But I thought this was a cool moment. Yeah,
all right, so this is where we get Joe's spinning out, right.
So Joe says, he's carrying this baggage of the Camilla,
Camilla and Kyle alliance. Frankly, Joe's carrying this with him.
I don't remember this as it being an issue. I
remember that Camilla and Kyle had a sort of secret
alliance and that people felt burnt by that, and that
might be Joe might be one of these people feeling burnt.
But so Joe's sort of like looking at for these advantages.
He's feeling like, kind of weird about it. So he
confronts Savannah about the weird whisper that he saw between
Savannah and Devins, and it just sort of spins out
and Joe looks like a fucking idiot during all this shit.
Yeah the impression you guys.
Speaker 2: Have to yeah, yeah, because what's his face? Devans keeps
trying to be like, dude, this is what I said,
and the guy is just like, yeah, but blah blah blah.
And you can see the frustration on Devin's face where
he's just like, God, what the fuck do I need
to tell you that? You just stop spinning out?
Speaker 1: Yeah? I think jo Joe's a very intense person. Joe.
Joe drives me nuts. I hate Joe for exactly reasons
like this. He gets so intense and so sort of
like honor based. I was wrong, do I got to
make this up Justice and Ship. It's like, fuck off, dude,
Like Devin says what I think, Like, you're allowed to
lie in this game, You're allowed to cheat, You're allowed
to stab you the like, this is this is what
the game is like if I can deal with it,
you know anyway. Yeah, so Joe sucks. Even Christian has
to kind of chime in and kind of try to
get Joe calm down and leveled out. And this is
where the vote seems like it might be turning to Joe.
The rest of the tribe is sort of thinking, like Jesus,
this guy's going around just like fucking wreaking havoc. Me,
do we just get him out. There's a minute in
time here where Joe seems like the easy vote.
Speaker 3: Yeah, honestly, at this point in time, I thought that
their entire team was going to go for him. I
did too, just to like just to clear the bullshit,
not have to deal with this craziness anymore.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because it did.
Speaker 3: It went from zero to sixty in a matter of
half a day. It went from everybody's going more towards
Savannah or Ozzy to all of a sudden, Joe, you
are a front runner for all this shit.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And part of me was excited because I hate
Joe and I wanted to see Joe go. But part
of me was disappointed because Savannah seems to know what's
going on, and so had Savannah made it through this episode,
I think we could have seen a shake up. Savannah
says directly to the camera that she knows what's going on.
Serie and Ozzie are working together. They're using Joe to
protect Ozzy, which at the time that she said that
that was true, and she's right, and she's seems like
the only person who sees the Siria and Ozzie alliance.
So I don't love Savannah either, but I do kind
of wish that she would make another episode or two
and blow up there too. Person alliance. Yeah, all right,
so we see Savannah, Emily and Devn's they're also kind
of thinking, Hey, what about Ozzi? Do we have enough
votes to get Ozzie out of here? Probably spread on
by Savannah thinking that Ozzie is working with Serien, although
we don't see that. And then Christian tells Devins about
the boomerang that he gave to Aubrey, but he wonders
if Savannah has a boomerang idol also, And this is
where Devon's has the brilliant idea of like, hey, do
you have the rapper for your idol, which of course
Christian has, and Devin says, let's wrap a fake idol
with the rapper of the legit idol and we're gonna
hide it at tribal in case we need it later.
This is why I love Survivor. This has never been done.
We've seen a lot of like wrapping fake idols in
real idol wraps, that's not new, but hiding it somewhere
where they can use it later, especially at tribal, is new.
And we've got to see this later or else they wouldn't
bring it up right, like they wouldn't like show it
and make it a deal. We have to see it later,
like there's no way they built this up and we
don't see it come back.
Speaker 3: And part of me really hopes that someone else sees
it before they're able to use it to their advantage. Yes,
fucking awesome. Would that be?
Speaker 1: Indeed, not realize so good if.
Speaker 3: Someone else saw it and like realized it why they
saw it while they're at council and then grabbed it
when like when everybody's kind of walking out so it's
not being used at council, and.
Speaker 1: Then oh, it's gonna be great.
Speaker 3: Sends a fake fake boomerang idol to someone like this
has the potential to not just fuck over one person,
but fuck over multiple people.
Speaker 1: It'd be so cool, fingers, I want to see that too,
because yes, this is fucking great. I love this ship.
This is why I love Survivor of just like, hey,
here's a new, weird fucking thing we can try, and
then yeah, Carlin, you'll get to see the great pleasure
of Jeff will sometimes say like, this is a an
immunity idol, and votes for Carlin will not count tonight.
But then sometimes he says, this is not an immunity idol,
votes for Carlin will count tonight. Oh yeah, it's the best,
it's the best.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm really hoping that we see it.
Speaker 1: Yeah all right, so yeah, yeah, so now we're at
tribal council. Some torches, everybody grab a torch, dip it in,
and get fire. I have no notes about tribal. I
think tribal is bullshit unless it's unless it's a live tribal,
it's just people talking in weird metaphors. I don't know.
I don't like this.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and Savannah talked for forever.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I started three times through what she was saying. I
was like, I was trying to like get onto this show,
and I can't. I don't. I don't need to hear
the bullshit. I just want to see them vote. And
literally I hit fast forward like three or four times
and she was still talking.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, Chris, one of one of Tim's favorite shows.
I don't like the competitions. I don't like drama. I
just want to watch people sit around. I can't talk.
Speaker 1: I love the talk on the beach and the like
this clan versus this klan and who's gonna do this?
And yes, the tribal it's all weird. It's all just
like Jeff is like, oh Christian, who are going to
vote for?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 1: Well, Jeff, it's like fucking being on a rocket. You
gotta decide, are you am? I going to go here?
All right? I don't need to know any of that, Like,
you're just saying the thing that we just saw in
the episode. Just move on, all right? Does anybody have
anything to say about tribal otherwise I'm just gonna read
the votes.
Speaker 2: It was pretty pretty one sided.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, so before we get to the votes, I'm
gonna gess kind of with the votes. I was so
convinced that everybody was gonna be voting Joe at this
point in time. Yeah, same in my fact sporting through
tribal council. Is there something in what Savannah said that
made everybody change their.
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 3: Okay, so me thinking that everyone was going to vote
for Joe was just a kind of a misdirect.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And this is one of the reasons I don't
like tribal. Well, Fee, you might have a different opinion
about it, but it does seem like most of the
time when they're at tribal, the decisions made, and the
goal of tribal is just to not say the decision
because if they say it or imply it, then it
does change it. Then it can like sort of alter
the direction. And so people just say things to mislead
and misdirect and they're say, really ambiguous things. The only
time I like tribal is Carlin when when what you're
saying actually happens. If somebody says like, hey, I know
you guys are planning un voting for me, but Ozzie
and Surrey are working together and Ozzie has the Boomerang idol,
Like dropping something like that at tribal, wou would cause
a live tribal. You'd start to see whispers, start to
see people like, you know, huddling up and doing other shit.
That's the interesting part to me. Okay, when you when
you go into tribal and it's all just sort of
people talking and then you vote, it's I don't know,
not interesting.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the live ones are good and there's some interesting
strategy that comes into that. No, you're getting voted out,
and so you're just like, guess what, guys, I have
an idol, I'm gonna play it. Yeah, So then everybody
freaks out and they all have to huddle up and
have a conversation. And then even sometimes even if they
do have an idol, it seems like everybody changes their vote.
So then like they end up not playing their idol. Yeah,
but then everybody knows they have one so or yes,
things they do.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's great. I hope we see a live travel
so you can you can get you can get it, Carl,
you can get it anyway. It's Savannah. Savanna's going home,
it seems. I think it's a unanimous other than her.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean the first four votes are all Savannah.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Then she's out. He didn't read anymore. We see
him all later. I do think every single other person
vout it for Savannah, and Savannah says an emotional goodbye.
Jeff says, are you ready to go? She says no,
but do it anyway?
Speaker 2: Well, this is the first time she's ever been voted off.
Speaker 3: Right, Well yeah, Yet she was there, made it the
whole time, spent two weeks, and then was back. So
I mean, I could understand why she'd be emotional, Like
you have, You've been away from family and friends on
an island with people that you don't know for the
better part of three months. Ye, and it's it'd be
a it'd be a shock of like, oh, and now
you're also going to be not only not going home,
but you're now going to be sitting in a hotel
for another month, waiting for everybody else to finish, so
then you can finally go home. So it will have
been like four plus months by the time you actually
make it home.
Speaker 1: Yep, yeah, yep. So she said, I'm not sad Savanah
and one less, one less winter, and yeah, she just.
Speaker 3: Rubbed me the wrong way. There were I don't know
if there's something about her, but just.
Speaker 1: Thank you, I said the same thing. I can't explain it.
There's not words I can need to describe it. But
there's something about her that I don't like it. She's
just like, is she's weird. I don't know, She's just
like I don't like her.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's the fact that she I think I
think the big things. And again this is me coming
in brand new person to this, to this game, uh,
pretending like I know what's going on, knowing through you
guys that information is currency. That she has now twice
lied about her block a vote. She seems to be
trying to play a strategic game by not telling everybody
what's going on, but then just failing miserably at it.
She seems to try be trying to kind of like
coyly play this game and like not really let people
know what she what her moves are and moving kind
of weird. I don't know. Just yeah, it's it's very strange. Yeah,
everything that she's done so far, it may have worked
for last season, but it's it's not working for this season.
And I don't know if she moved the same way
last season or not she did.
Speaker 1: I didn't like her all last season either, and I
was actually really surprised you won because she like was
unlikable to me and it seemed like most everybody else.
But what do I know. So as they're leaving tribal
Christian whose job it was was to distract everybody, so
that hide the idol Christian fucking just falls down like
weirdly randomly in the as part as a tribal.
Speaker 3: Okay, what else would you have been able to do
to be, like, I don't know, other than be like,
who look, there's aliens.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but like that was a really good it was,
but it's like, it's such a weird thing. A Christian
shit himself and then he fake fell in this episode.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but okay, so if you if you're getting up
and leaving something and you're you know, you're one of
the last people to leave, you're in a big, giant
conference room with you know, a bunch of people, and
you're still kind of like tiding off all your ship
at a meeting, putting it into a bag, and then
you hear someone fall on the floor. My immediate reaction
is to turn my head in that direction.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I did too, super simple, super effective. It
was effective, and I loved as they're like helping him
up off the gritty. He says, no, no, I'm okay. I
meant to do that, like perfect, but that's a perfect Christian.
I meant to I don't. Oh, it's great though, this
is Christian. I fucking love that guy. I fucking love that.
Speaker 2: So funny part for me. I don't know if I
mentioned it in the pre show, but I was not
feeling super great over the past couple of days. Yeah,
So I had trouble sleeping last night, and I was like,
it's like eight o'clock in the morning, I'm just gonna
start watching my episode Survivor and then I'm gonna go
to sleep for the rest of the day. And so
I was kind of delirious watching this. I completely missed
the let's wrap up a fake idol and stuff or whatever.
So I think I was just own out. So I
was like, why is he keep reaching into his bag,
like like at the very end, what he's like visioning
with it? And then fucking Christian fell, which I didn't
realize was fake on purpose.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then.
Speaker 2: Yeah he hit it, and I'm like, oh, I don't
know what that is. So I was completely like, off
all that stuff. It's just him him falling. Then he's
even funnier because because oh I meant to do that.
That just cracks me up.
Speaker 1: Now, Yeah, it's great. I love it. I love Christian,
I love this whole thing. I love Christians and Devin's
that bromance. This is all great. I love this all. Yeah, Carlin,
did you watch the next episode on no trailer? I'm
not doing that, all right, Can I tell you what happens? Oh,
Carlin's taking off. Tribe swap.
Speaker 2: Yep, tribe swap. Everybody gotta fill up, fill up the
empty spots on those tribes.
Speaker 1: That's right, yep, drop them buffs, yep, drop them buff
that's the next episode, guys, very exciting. Put them back
on con. We're done. We're done.
Speaker 3: Okay for anybody who's not watching us on here, I'm not.
I'm not watching the next week on. I'm not looking
at anything on the internet. I'm trying to keep it
purely to the episodes. So I just took my headphones
off talking about whatever was happening on next week.
Speaker 2: Do you fast forward through the No, I don't, because
after that there's like an exit interview with the person
who got voted off.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I missed that.
Speaker 2: So there like sometimes some interesting things.
Speaker 1: I mean, it reveals every vote. Also it is saying like,
oh I loved my time here whatever. It shows everybody
holding up their vote, and so even though Jeff only
read a handful, you can see how everybody voted, gotcha.
Speaker 3: So yeah, no, I'm like literally the moment that they
I mean, like last week when when they were taking
Kyle off, that was it started playing the next week
and then I cut it. This week, I knew that
nexicon was coming, so I cut it right then. Yeah, yeah,
that happens.
Speaker 2: This would have been the first one where they would
have had all the votes at the end. So yeah, okay,
so just keep in mind that there is a little
piece afterwards.
Speaker 3: Okay, well you guys don't have to you'll have to
tell me how it goes because I'm not going to
fast forth through it.
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna didn't. I didn't say anything super interesting, all.
Speaker 3: Right, Oh, where where where Devin's put the idol? So
this is this is why I say I would love
for another team or another person to find the idol
because it seems like he he had a split second
to hide that idol. Yeah, it seems like he may
have potentially put it in a spot that someone else
could find it.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: And I also so part of me is now that
I'm saying this because he only had a split second
to put it there. I'm wondering if like a production
assistant after the production after this, if it's not like
properly like seated in there or whatnot, if they're going
to come back and just like tuck it in just
slightly more so that it is properly seated so that
it's kind of a little bit more hidden. I just
I'm excited about this. I mean, it's just so much fun.
Speaker 1: It showed it sitting there. Yeah, and I guess we
don't know who's put it where it landed exactly, but
like it showed it sitting there, and it does seem
like a savvy. Other tribe could see it.
Speaker 3: It's only in their tribe that's made it to tribal council.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so so I did, since I don't remember them
doing this. Did they put the note in it too?
Or is it just the wrapping?
Speaker 1: I think the wrapping is the note and then they yes,
and then they put a fake idol.
Speaker 2: But I'm saying so if someone found it and it says, hey,
I'm Billie Eilish, this is a Boomerang idol, so then
they'll send it to somebody else. Is production foll through
with that if it's not? Hope?
Speaker 1: So yeah, I guess we'll see. I guess we'll see.
Speaker 3: I mean I would think that. Okay. So my theory
is if if someone from another team or someone from
their team finds it and grabs it and doesn't like
immediately try to play it or like open it up
at at tribal council whatever. If they bring it back
and they open up back at their camp and they
see that it's a Boomerang idol, my assumption is that
then they would send it to another tribe. That production
would not include the note that that other person would get.
That We've seen twice now saying hey, you have been
sent this idol. They would just that idol would show
up in that person's bag and there would be no
note with it, which they wouldn't know any different unless
they were Aussie or Aubrey, right, in which case it
would just show up in their bag and they'd be like, oh,
I've got an idol okay, So like it would still yeah, yeah,
we'll see, there's potentially over both people.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the funders driver. We have no idea to
see how this plays out. It's gonna be very fun.
I'm excited me too. Great, so great episode right.
Speaker 2: Head over to challengepod dot com. Join the Facebook group.
You can also join our Patreon. What if people get
on Patreon?
Speaker 1: Right, guys, five bucks a month you get exclusive access
to pre shows after so it's literally years and years
worth of content. What do we talk about this time?
And the access to discord too? What was there this time.
Speaker 2: Which we never checked because there's been like multiple people
will try to have with Tim.
Speaker 1: And uh turn off notifications on everything. I try to
like not be that guy that has notifications on.
Speaker 3: I typically have my notifications off on everything, and apparently
I turned them off for discord and stove t Adams.
When is you Tim right?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, so Tach.
Speaker 1: With different you know, in different in a different order.
Speaker 3: Oh okay. Uh tags Tim in a post saying shot
in the Dark is live this season. Apparently Jenna mentioned it,
mentioned that she was convinced not to use it in
her exit interview by Christian.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we didn't see it, but yes, shot in
the Dark is live. Christian convinced Jenna not to use it.
Speaker 3: Interesting, Okay, I didn't know that. And then he also
tagged me, which I this is how I realized that
I had notifications on saying that. On the topic of torches,
so I was asking this last week, production team will
put out the torches before they go back to camp,
if the tribe has not yet made fire, if they have,
if they do have flint production, we'll let them keep
the torches. And then in the topic of surprise idols,
because I was asking if we have ever had if
the game has ever had someone show up to tribal
council play an idol that the audience doesn't know that
they have, not just their tribe, but that we don't
know that they have. He said on the Tropic of
surprise idols. There has there have been a few instances,
at least in season forty where someone forty plus, where
someone has played an idol where the audience doesn't know
and they do flashbacks to let people know what happened
and when they found it. So apparently that has happened.
Speaker 1: I don't recall that, but I trust the stuff.
Speaker 2: So my cover part what they do flashbacks?
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh, what was the genie the genie lamp sitting
when they were all filling out the thing at tribal council.
What was the genie lamp?
Speaker 2: Just a decoration?
Speaker 1: Okay, Core. Also for your five bucks a month, we

Fantasy League.
Speaker 3: Tim's missing the Fantasy League. Lame. This is one of
his favorite parts.
Speaker 2: Mum, so we can hear him po.
Speaker 3: I mean, I have to really pee, and I've been
holding off because apparently I am more committed to this
show than he is.
Speaker 2: Yep. Even though you were five minutes late to the
pre show.
Speaker 3: Well, that's because I was watching the actual show that
we're talking about.
Speaker 2: I'm just saying I was on time. I know.
Speaker 3: I was trying to bant and play for time so
that Tim would be here when we talk about Fantasy League.
Speaker 2: No, I was here on time. Tim surprisingly showed up
on time.
Speaker 3: Yeah, even though I was going to Okay, I.
Speaker 2: Talked about Scream seven, which was nice Chris watching.
Speaker 3: Also, apparently there's a scary movie like seven. I didn't
realize that there were so many scary movies.
Speaker 2: It is coming out six.
Speaker 3: I didn't realize there were that many. I thought we
only had one.
Speaker 2: Nope, there has been five previous.
Speaker 3: Yep, I didn't know that.
Speaker 2: I am way more excited for that than I am
that there was a scream seven.
Speaker 3: Now, okay, all right, Uh, Fantasy League, if you have
not joined, you could still join. It's still a lot
of fun. It's pick them league. You have to pick
new players every week, which.
Speaker 2: Apparently I forgot to do it this week.
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, but you weren't feeling well, so I understand. Yeah, okay,
first place, if you win the entire season, then you
get to co host an episode with us. It might
be a you know, do they do reunions?
Speaker 2: Whose No, because they have they have the big thing
at the end where they announced the winner and then
you know, like the first episode was like three hours long,
three hours long, so in the finale usually it's like
a two hour final episode and then they'll have the
reveal of the winner, which is new because they used
to have a whole different setup, but because of COVID
just contained it on the island and then immediately.
Speaker 3: Kim just flush the toilet.
Speaker 2: Jeff's Jeff will be like, all right, now that we
revealed the winner, production and is going to set up
and they set up a whole new set while they're
sitting there.
Speaker 3: We do like it.
Speaker 2: They do like an hour long after show where they
sort of have everybody who was on the jury and
who is still playing sort of talk through the season
and god, we fell all that stuff.
Speaker 3: So all right, well, first Place gets to co host
an episode with us. If it were the Challenge, you'd
co host potentially one of the probably at the beginning
of next season.
Speaker 2: Did we have a winner last season? Aren't they do?
They need to co host an episode of Survivor with us.
Speaker 1: We brought him in the finale, right, yeah, the last episode.
Speaker 3: Oh Chris, Yes, yeah, well we brought him in last
season because we weren't sure if we were doing another season.
Speaker 2: That's right, Chris was awesome.
Speaker 3: Okay, so First Place we have a new first place person,
Garrett h. I am the Challenge is in a first
place with three hundred and fifty seven points second place.
This seems like quite the achievement. Second Place came up
thirteen spots.
Speaker 1: Woo crazy.
Speaker 3: Welcome the rob Father. Mister Jason p is in at
three forty five, and Heather b is in at third.
She came up four spots with tally the votes proposed
at three thirty five, I dropped two spots, so I
am in fourth place. I have a feeling I'm just
going to continue to drop because I don't know what's
going on.
Speaker 1: Though.
Speaker 3: I did pick Savannah this week because I figured that
she might be getting out, and then I was like,
I don't know if she's actually gonna be getting out
because there are three different teams. Any of the teams
could be getting in. Yeah, I'm chooser just in case
she gets out this week and then she on Survivor. Yeah,
I was. I was very scra all right, So I
am in fourth place. We haven't I moved up to
you guys. The host team dropped ten points. It's also
partially because we only we didn't pick all of our
things because Wolfe wasn't feeling well and forgot to get
his stuff into us. But that's okay.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 3: Tim is up two spots at twentieth release the Epstein's files,
and Wolfy dropped two spots to twenty fifth because he
didn't put his picks.
Speaker 1: In on the only two places I advanced were the
two that didn't play this week?
Speaker 3: Nice.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it feels real good. I feel real good about it, guys,
real good.
Speaker 3: Who did you pick this week?
Speaker 1: Nobody good? Nobody good. I'm slow playing it, which I
think is a mistake. I think slow playing it is
better on the challenge. Not so good.
Speaker 3: I'm much even that good on the challenge. You still
didn't give her. The highest you got was fourth, and
that was like three episodes before.
Speaker 1: The fact, really high. Fourth place is really high, Carlin.
That's a good score. That's a good score.
Speaker 3: All right, So this week you picked Angelina, Charlie Colby,
and Genevieve Bad.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they had bad picks. Bad picks.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I all were in the twenties. Genevieve
at least got forty points.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't do some didn't do so good.
Speaker 3: Who did I pick? I don't remember I picked.
Speaker 1: I think the most important thing to remember is that
Donald Trump started a war with Iran to distract from
the Epstein files. And we shouldn't let that distract from us, guys,
because our president is a pedophile, and that seems worse
than than like most things.
Speaker 3: All right, I picked Aubrey Ozzy Savannah.
Speaker 1: Wait, wait, wait, wait, what happened to Carlin's thing? Is
that just me? Or did Carla get super loud?
Speaker 2: She did? You did get a lot louder.
Speaker 3: Oh, I don't know what. I just did talk Okay,
I picked Aubrey, Ozzy, Savannah, and Tiffany.
Speaker 1: That was loud, right, that was crazy loud for a second,
it was weird. It just happened. I don't know.
Speaker 3: I didn't want, I didn't do anything.
Speaker 2: You're fine, now, you're fine, Okay.
Speaker 1: I believe complex Wolf. He turned you up.
Speaker 3: Nobody is christ wouldn't put it past them.
Speaker 2: He's the type I did on mute during while you're
during your bathroom breath.
Speaker 1: I know, I knew you would. That's why I pissed
in the bathroom every times out of the house. You
couldn't hear it, could you.
Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure that I heard the toilet flush.
Speaker 1: M That makes sense.
Speaker 3: Oh, Chris has been has been talking to us in
the chat room because he's back. Everyone saying was saying
that Joe or Ozzy. Everyone was saying Joe or Ozzy
when Savannah was around. So the Editus uses that to
make it a surprise.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, yeah, So it was always Savannah, but misled
us for a second.
Speaker 3: Yeah, of course Savannah has judgment eyes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Savannah's got like a mean girl kind of spirit
about I can't I can't explain it, but there's just
something about her that just seems like a fucking it
doesn't It's just like everything she says it is just
like fuck. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Like I said last week, she's got like a pretty
girl syndrome, and it just it just it feels. It
feels odd.
Speaker 2: Poverty, poverty. It reminds me of her a little bit.
Speaker 1: Oh, se Parvety is like so charming and nice and
sweet on.
Speaker 2: Like one season, so she seems kind of mean girl
on that season.
Speaker 3: I think Parverty was on Traders. Yes, I know the name,
even though I haven't seen Traders. I just listened too
many podcasts.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yep, she was Classics cyber Player. Yep.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's where we're at for the Fantasy League. You
should all join. It's a lot of fun.
Speaker 1: I would say it's not too late to join. I
really think that you can overtake a lot of a
lot of us at the bottom, including myself.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think within the first four episodes, I think
you can he's the first three joining. Is it's not
too late?
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a lot of fun.
Speaker 2: I've uh, well, you were going over the Fantasy League.
I set my team so I wouldn't forget this.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you have until right before that week's game, that
week's episode, so Wednesday up? Is it like six to
set your lineup?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Six Central time? All right, anything else before we wrap
up this episode that is longer than the actual episodes.
Speaker 1: Right, we sucked it up. We're trying.
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, well, I guess for this episode of Survivor,
this has been Brian.
Speaker 3: Big Over, sweet, team Carl and san Diego hot and dumb,
and Jonathan's hot and dumb until next time.
Speaker 1: Oh yo, weo weo, we we you you're going to
