  Speaker 5: Jax and Justin Clements. Here to talk all things Rob Antonson. Guys,
• 1:04
  Speaker 5: are you excited? Are you excited about this?
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: I just, I want to make sure that everybody knows.
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: I want to make sure that everybody knows. Like, we're
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: here not because, like, Rob quit. It was because Rob
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: was evacuated.
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he was medevaced. And he told, apparently, told someone
• 1:20
  Speaker 4: that he had met prior to this episode, get your
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: tissues ready.
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: Please go on.
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: I love Survivor Reddit so much. And apparently he had
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: met someone new at some sort of event. And I
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: was like, yeah, get the tissues ready. It's going to
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: be real tearjerker. This is before he saw the edit.
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: So I just love, I was having like a little reverie,
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: like a fantasy of imagining what Rob thought his edit
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: was going to look like.
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 1:54
  Speaker 5: I just, I love that in his own mind, it's
• 1:58
  Speaker 5: just a completely different reality than what everybody else is experiencing.
• 2:03
  Speaker 5: And I think there's something beautiful about that.
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: Can I just like, as I like push my hair,
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: like behind my ears here, like instruct everybody, I do
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: feel like this is going to be low key and
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: episode on like PR management. I have a master's in
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: communications focus in PR because I wasn't, I was super
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: worried about like my future. This man, has done everything
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: but correct PR since, since he left. And I love
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: him for it so that we can come together to
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: this place for magic.
• 2:39
  Speaker 5: But like, I thought you were about to say he's
• 2:42
  Speaker 5: done everything perfectly and no one gets it.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: So I'm, I'm of two minds because there was a
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: piece of me. So growing up when I was dropped
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: off at a kindergarten, like elementary school, The entire first year,
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: I hold a record that was not chronicled, but I
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: do believe it belongs to me, that I threw up
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: every day of elementary school because I was so sad
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: that I was leaving my mom. And, like, I would,
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: there was this, like, whole, like, diatribe I would do
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: is I would, like, walk in, I'd be like, I'm fine,
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: I'm fine, I'm fine. And then, like, as soon as
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: my mom would turn to leave, I would, like, do the,
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: and I would throw up. It is every single day.
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: So like, make no mistake. There are a lot of
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: people from my elementary school that will say like Justin
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: left every day because he like didn't have the emotional
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: like integrity to stick around. But the truth is, is
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: that I was injured on the bottom of my foot.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: And every day that I threw up, I was unwell.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: So I will be a full Rob defender in this
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: podcast today.
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: Can I just say, Justin, that now if that was
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: happening to a child, we would address that anxiety full
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: speed ahead. But you powered through. No, they beat me.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: They beat me. And arguably in 2026, maybe Rob should
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: have been, I don't know, beaten a little bit.
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: You think Linnea should have beaten Rob out there?
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: Oh, God. Well, we're not talking about kinks here, but
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: like maybe.
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: We should be. It's been too long, honestly, since we've
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: talked about our kinks. You know, Justin, it's interesting that
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: you're talking about throwing up every day at school and
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: Rob with his pink substance because I'm going to share
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: a little tale from my kindergarten class where every morning
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: I would have strawberry milk for breakfast and and then
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: there was one day when I couldn't make it to
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: the bathroom, and then the pink substance, I threw it
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: up all over the scissors.
• 5:00
  Speaker 5: Jax with a pink substance.
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: At the end of the school year, so we had
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: nuns because I went to a Catholic school, and at
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: the end of the school year, you had to turn
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: in your scissors, and They were like, where are your scissors, Jacqueline?
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: And I was like, remember? I threw up on them.
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: And then they were like, oh, gotcha.
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: Turn in your scissors. It was like you had a
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: government issue.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah. They were like, please.
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: You had to turn in your scissors and your pencils
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: and all your textbooks.
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: All right, kids. If somebody breaks in, we all get
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: the scissors and we rush.
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: So good. So good.
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: So all that is to say, PD, is that Justin
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: and I clearly can relate to Rob. So you have
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: the perfect people here in the sanctuary today.
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: Guys, I'm sorry about my camera. I don't know why
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: it does this, why it punches in and then like
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: goes back out all the time. I'm not doing it.
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: It's just the ghost of Steve Jobs deciding.
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: Can I interject? I think it is. And PD and
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: I met this summer at Bramble Fest. when we played
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: survivor together but i think that the camera like insert
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: and back up is like a little a gift to
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: me because like it's a little like kiss it's just
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: like yeah when it gets close i'm like oh there
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: he is and it's.
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: Okay i take it back i programmed that in there
• 6:32
  Speaker 5: on purpose god.
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: Bless you i kind of love it oh there it
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: is there it is wait did It's like the video
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: that you sent our group chat of you at the
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: Charlie XCX concert. And when you zoom in on her.
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: Cleavage, I've... Hey, I'm the feminist around here. You don't
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: bring stuff like that up.
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Well, I've watched it now
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: the tallies probably 21 or 22 times. And I just
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: think it was gorgeous camera work. I don't think you
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: were doing it to be a weirdo or perverted at all.
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: I think you're just an excellent cinematographer.
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: Let's start with the thing that kicked all of this off.
• 7:08
  Speaker 5: It was a video of Rob that was captioned, let's
• 7:10
  Speaker 5: talk about the tea. And it's like him slowly walking
• 7:15
  Speaker 5: up in the airport. And then he bends over and
• 7:19
  Speaker 5: he sees a bunch of Instagram notifications. And he's like,
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: a lot of people want to know what went down,
• 7:23
  Speaker 5: what's going on, especially from tonight's episode. I'm not going
• 7:28
  Speaker 5: to tell you tonight. You'll have to wait until tomorrow.
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: And then he walks away. And what's really funny is
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: imagining that, you know, he has to turn around, go
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: back and hit, like, stop on the recording and then
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: crop out him walking back. Yes. But in the comments
• 7:47
  Speaker 5: of this, I mean, it got 400 or 100,000 views,
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: 400 comments. I think one of them was Shaheen. Oh, wait, no,
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: that's another one. But I just I love in all
• 7:59
  Speaker 5: the comments how people are like, you know, I can't
• 8:02
  Speaker 5: believe you quit. And he's like, thanks for the engagement.
• 8:04
  Speaker 5: Can't believe you care about a reality show.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: So what, how do y'all, what do y'all think about
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: the introduction to, to the crash out?
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: Do you think this was like it? Like, do you
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: think this was his game? Like, do you think that
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: he ever wanted to win survivor? Because like, I swear
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: to God, like after seeing everything, I don't, I don't
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: know that he was ever playing for the end game,
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: especially considering the bra, the Rob show. Yeah. Of it all. Hmm.
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: So you think he just wanted a little clout and then,
• 8:42
  Speaker 5: then he was done.
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: Like I go on Jackson.
• 8:46
  Speaker 5: No, no, no, no.
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: You go ahead.
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: I just think that there is something so God, I
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: hate using this word, but like, there's just something like
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: he's something so like pussy about it. And the reason
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: that I like don't want to use that word is
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: because I actually think that like pussies are quite like strong.
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: And I don't think he is. Like, I just think
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: that like he showed up to a thing and he
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: was like, I'm going to leverage this for as long
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: as I can stand. And six days ended up being it.
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: And then he left and was like, well, you guys don't,
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: you guys don't know the whole story. And it's like, well,
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: I think that you were betting that you would last
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: maybe 10 days and you didn't get there. It just
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: feels so fucking baloney.
• 9:39
  Speaker 5: What do you think, Jax? Do you think he wanted
• 9:41
  Speaker 5: to be out there?
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: So I think that Rob desperately wanted to be on
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: any reality show that would take him. I think he
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: would have been amazing on big brother. I actually think,
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: He would have been really interesting and hilarious on Traitors
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: as well. This man was not built for Survivor. He
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: didn't watch the show. I think he thought that it
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: was one of those things where it's like, it's reality TV.
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: I'm sure you're still sleeping at night, and it's not
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: really that intense. But to Justin's point, which I fully
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: agree with, I don't think he thought or necessarily cared
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: about winning, but there's no way that this man did
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: not think that he wasn't making it to the jury,
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: and he 100% was like, I'm not going to win,
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: but I'm going to be the fan favorite. I'm going
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: to get the SIA award that they're going to bring back,
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: and they're going to give it to me because I'm
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: everybody's favorite. Yes, he thought he was going to be beloved,
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: and yes, Then when he realized he couldn't hack it,
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: he was like, okay, I'm going to be really strategic
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: and I'm going to control my edit.
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: And so he tries with Eric. Like the Eric thing
• 10:54
  Speaker 5: was his first attempt at going out in a blaze
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: of glory. And then, you know, that didn't work. So
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: he's like, okay, fake an injury.
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: Can I.
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: Can I tell you, Jax, why I don't think that
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: he would have done well on Big Brother?
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: Because Dee did a lot of, like, press on Big
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: Brother after she exited. And she said the difference between
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: Big Brother and Survivor is that Survivor is, like, so fast. And, like,
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: the cameras are on you when they're on you. But, like,
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: ultimately there is a little bit of downtime. And, like,
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: all of you become, like, trauma bonded. by this experience
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: where like you're submerged in the survivor of it all.
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: Whereas big brother, you're constantly being filmed. And I think
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: if Rob were constantly being filmed within the first week,
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: it would, it would have revealed that like, he's just
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: a little like baby. Like, I don't think, I think
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: he would have made it less time game wise and
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: big brother and, than he would have game-wise in Survivor.
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: Because I just think that he's like a child.
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree. The way he talks about being... I'm
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: sure he's a great dad. I'm sure he has lots
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: of fun with his kids. But the way he talks
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: about the amount of responsibility he has as a dad,
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: I sort of want to reach out to his wife
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: and be like, baby girl, how you doing?
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: What does he do?
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: Do you feel like you have four kids?
• 12:33
  Speaker 5: He works in the airport. We saw the menacing video
• 12:36
  Speaker 5: of him walking up and walking away.
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: Couple of them.
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: And his wife is a travel nurse. So they make bank.
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: So I do understand that he is at home with
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: his children a lot. But there's something about the way.
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: And this is a very, I will say, I feel
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: like this. And please correct me if I'm wrong. I
• 12:56
  Speaker 4: love to be called out. I love to be called in.
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: I have flexible thinking. I like to change my mind.
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: I feel like it is a very male thing to
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: care so much about legacy and your name and about
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: like this presentation out into the world. And I feel
• 13:13
  Speaker 4: like that is what he cares so desperately about is
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: looking like a good man and having an excellent reputation.
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: But now that he doesn't have that, he's like, well, okay,
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: at least if I can make a splash.
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 13:27
  Speaker 5: Let's talk about the first big splash of, It was
• 13:30
  Speaker 5: the video that got 432,000 views as of me reading this.
• 13:36
  Speaker 5: And it was that weird laughing sound that he put
• 13:40
  Speaker 5: on it. Let me.
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah, this.
• 13:44
  Speaker 5: And then it's just a wall of text. He's sipping
• 13:47
  Speaker 5: a mug. And there's a wall of text that says,
• 13:50
  Speaker 5: the amount of people who are crying right now over
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: somebody leaving or quitting, quitting in quotation marks, a TV
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: show is alarming. You people are crying over a TV show,
• 14:01
  Speaker 5: a game, some weird-ass energy right now, soft-ass society.
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: Can I just, like, chime in? I do want to
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: ask you, PD, before we move on. Like, what's your, like,
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: gut take on Rob's leaving?
• 14:20
  Speaker 5: I mean, on his leaving, it was... disgraceful it was
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: pathetic it was an insult to everybody who's applied to
• 14:26
  Speaker 5: survivor and didn't get on and wouldn't have quit for
• 14:29
  Speaker 5: no reason but his handling of it afterwards i think
• 14:32
  Speaker 5: is hilarious.
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: Oh hundo p i think so i'm a my like
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: day job is journalist um my day job is is
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: boy um my day job is journalist there was um
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: when the lover album uh from taylor swift came out
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: I love that album. The lead single was You Need
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: to Calm Down. I am a, if you can't tell
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: by the voice, a card-carrying homosexual. And when I was
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: working my job, my employer was like, won't you write
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: a take about You Need to Calm Down? Because it
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: was very LGBTQ-oriented, all that. And I said, I felt
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: like Taylor... Swift had created a song that like met
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: the moment when it was popular to like support gay people.
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: And it was like the like lowest common denominator to
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: like bring in that audience. That review was one of
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: the worst things that's happened to me in my entire career.
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: It was also put into a Wikipedia article. And to
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: this day, I get at least two to four death
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: threats a year from people that are like, you should
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: kill yourself because like you would ever come for somebody
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: that's like trying to do any like good for like
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: the LGBT community. And when it was published, it was insane. Yeah.
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: So the idea that this man is getting like any
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: kind of like flack from the survivor fandom that rivals
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: like the Swifties coming into my inbox and being like,
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: if I knew where you were, I would kill you myself.
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: Like brother, like it is, there is a certain.
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: Well, are you saying that you didn't have a massive
• 16:28
  Speaker 5: crash out online and respond to every single one of them?
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: No, I stayed home and ate chicken wings like a
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: normal person. But like this man, I feel like it
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: is so soft spined that he's just like, you guys
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: don't understand it. And like the crash out this week,
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: from a personal perspective, I'm like, dude, you're annoying. But
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: from like a take in the entertainment perspective, it's been
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: amazing because he has crashed the fuck out and it's amazing. Yeah.
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: First of all, Justin, I'm sorry that happened to you.
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: And I feel like I'm somewhat responsible. I'm not a Swifty.
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: But my fellow millennial white women who I need to
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: round up and be like, ladies, we are the new
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: white men, okay? We are, we're not doing great, okay?
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: So first of all, also now everything that has happened
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: or that everything now that Taylor Swift has not said,
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: I think speaks volumes and you were ahead of the curve.
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: I won't be getting into that. on this podcast because
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: that's another podcast, but there's something about Rob and this
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: is what I almost find the funniest and to be honest,
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: saddest about it. He's actually acting like this is going
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: more viral and like he's having more trolls than he
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: does and that feels almost sadder to me.
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 17:55
  Speaker 5: Oh, that's amazing. Yeah, you're right.
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: It's very much like A lot of people have been saying,
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: and it's like, are a lot of the people in
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: the room with us? Like, can you direct me to
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: where a lot of the people are? And it's wild.
• 18:12
  Speaker 5: Oh, yeah, because before all this happened, he had a
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: video where he was talking about his move to try
• 18:17
  Speaker 5: to get rid of himself. And he was like, it's
• 18:19
  Speaker 5: going viral. The podcasts are talking about it. There are
• 18:22
  Speaker 5: articles about it. It's everywhere. But here's the truth. And
• 18:25
  Speaker 5: I don't remember what he said after that.
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: He goes, one of the things that I love to say,
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: he goes, no, no, no, it went semi-viral.
• 18:35
  Speaker 5: So for any fans listening, if you are also interested
• 18:39
  Speaker 5: in sending Justin death threats, you can do that at
• 18:41
  Speaker 5: makingthemergepod at gmail.com. Let's see, what else did Rob do?
• 18:50
  Speaker 5: There's more. You want to play him in the pool
• 18:53
  Speaker 5: or him with Dalton Ross or?
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: I think you have to play him in the pool
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: because also the fact that this man has this really
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: luxurious pool in Rhode Island. He's talking about people on
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: the East Coast, how they're so tough. And I'm like,
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: you are sitting in that pool that your wife paid
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: for for you. Nothing wrong with that. I love a
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: strong woman who makes money and I love a woman
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: who's the breadwinner. But yeah.
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: Can I take us to niche for a second?
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: Please.
• 19:24
  Speaker 5: Are you about to read your death threats?
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: Hold on. Let me go through. Justin, you're a stupid...
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: Never mind. When I watched the video of him in
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: the pool, right? I really wanted to like read the moment.
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: And I was like, it would be too on the
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: nose and hateful to talk about his like peck tattoo.
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: Because that's a whole thing. But I did see him...
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: holding a Corona. Yeah. A Corona as he like waited
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: throughout this pool with like his tiny, tiny little like
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: foot cut. And I just like, am I being too
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: harsh in that like, I can't respect you if you're
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: like beer of choice is a Corona.
• 20:15
  Speaker 5: I'm not a beer drinker. So I don't even, I
• 20:16
  Speaker 5: don't have opinions one way or the other.
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: I'm not either, but like I have taste.
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: So my, my partner, Alex, who you've both met his
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: beer of choice is a Corona, but he's a soft,
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: whimsical British boy. And you know that I like women
• 20:31
  Speaker 4: like that. Like I need something a little softer.
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: It's a soft, whimsical, whimsical British boy.
• 20:38
  Speaker 5: My grandma's favorite beer is a Corona. So Justin is
• 20:40
  Speaker 5: coming after our loved ones here.
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: Oh, bet your fucking ass I am.
• 20:46
  Speaker 4: I just hear grandma kicking back a Corona PD.
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: Yeah, she loves them. She got really mad when I
• 20:52
  Speaker 5: pulled one out in front of her pastor. That was
• 20:55
  Speaker 5: a whole thing.
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: Does she do Corona light or just the regular?
• 20:59
  Speaker 5: Just the regular.
• 21:01
  Speaker 4: That's a real one. No, but I actually, Justin, interestingly enough,
• 21:06
  Speaker 4: To your point, I am shocked that either Rob drinks
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: Corona or he's going to let us know that he
• 21:12
  Speaker 4: drinks Corona.
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 21:13
  Speaker 5: Hey, in the comments of this video, what's your opinion
• 21:15
  Speaker 5: on Corona? We really need to like discuss this as
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: a group.
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: And Corona, if we don't feel like you have, we
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: have like besmirched your reputation, would you want to sponsor?
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: Who's to say? Sorry. Wait, what?
• 21:30
  Speaker 5: All right. Let's play Rob in the pool. Did you
• 21:34
  Speaker 5: want to say anything else before we get into robbing
• 21:36
  Speaker 5: the pool?
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: No, please.
• 21:37
  Speaker 5: Please play it. This is going to be three minutes,
• 21:39
  Speaker 5: so I'm going to cut it off somewhere. We can't
• 21:41
  Speaker 5: just sit here for three minutes and listen to rob.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: Your feelings and your emotions not show weakness so I
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: mean that's what I was trying to do that's why
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: I didn't tell my tribe anything about it and uh
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: when it came to the doc you know you Survivor
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: and CBS does a great job of doing the check-ins
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: with the doc all the time and I always told
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: the doc I'm good to go I'm a-okay so from
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: the Survivor side they thought I was healthy ready to
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: go but I wasn't so I dealt with this injury
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: for the days leading up to day six and started
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: with my foot and then it was the whole leg
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: just had just pain you know I was getting chills
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: at night couldn't sleep probably slept you know two to
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: three hours at night and again you know in the
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: game of survival you don't eat you don't drink really
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: you're not getting any of that so put the pain
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: in and no sleep I mean it's just it's a
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: Molotov cocktail of not success so anyways we.
• 22:38
  Speaker 5: Arrived not success.
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: And my leg shot I know I'm probably done. I mean,
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: I had to make a decision. I was contemplating the
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: decision back and forth. You know, do I say for
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: myself a selfish reason or I have three kids at
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: home and I have to be a full-time daddy. I'm
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: not a deadbeat dad. I'm a dad that when my
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: wife's working.
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: As a nurse in California, I'm taking care of all
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: three kids.
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: I'm traveling with all three kids. So they need me.
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: So I made the decision that I was going to
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: take myself out due to my injury because I know
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: there's crazy things that can happen with an infection.
• 23:14
  Speaker 5: Okay, that's enough.
• 23:15
  Speaker 4: I don't... Can I? Okay, so.
• 23:19
  Speaker 5: The deadbeat dad. I looked at you. I looked right
• 23:21
  Speaker 5: at you when he said that because you've been throwing
• 23:23
  Speaker 5: those accusations out there, but here he is in the
• 23:25
  Speaker 5: pool with the corona saying I'm not a deadbeat dad.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: I'm not.
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: It's like when a nice guy... It's like when a
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: guy tells you he's a nice guy and I'm like,
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: you know, if you're a nice guy, you don't have
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: to tell me you're a nice guy. And I think
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: that the interesting thing about this with Rob is.
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: I am sure that new mothers, and this is some
• 23:45
  Speaker 4: of the discourse online, which I'm loving. They're like, you
• 23:48
  Speaker 4: know that man, even when he had each of his
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: three newborns, was like sleeping through the night. Plenty of
• 23:53
  Speaker 4: parents only sleep two, three hours a night. As someone
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: who has never been a parent, but has worked all
• 23:59
  Speaker 4: sorts of weird schedules to Three hours is a full
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: sleep cycle, baby. If you're getting three hours, you actually
• 24:09
  Speaker 4: feel pretty okay. So I don't want to hear.
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: It, Rob.
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: And I think the funny thing is, though, is that
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: someone commented below the video that you were referring to earlier,
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: PD of the text.
• 24:28
  Speaker 5: The wall of text with the coffee mug.
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: And this comment has nearly as many likes as the
• 24:34
  Speaker 4: video itself. And someone put that he just commented that
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: Rob is Schrodinger's douchebag. A guy who says offensive things
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: and decides whether he was joking or not. based on
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: the reaction of people around him. And I think that
• 24:53
  Speaker 4: Rob is, he is not spending time with his kids
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: or his wife or creating like more pink substance videos.
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: He is on TikTok. He is on Instagram, religiously monitoring
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: everything that people are saying to figure out what his
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: next move is. And I kind of admire that in
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: the sense of like, yeah, if you can do some
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: stuff that's really going to catch fire, even to get
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: haters and stuff, I think that's great. I don't know
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: if he's that skilled that he's even going to be
• 25:22
  Speaker 4: able to do that. What do you guys think?
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: I think that if, so I used to have to
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: go on these hunts with my dad. I grew up
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: in East Tennessee. My dad's like a big, like big
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: game hunter. So there are two weekends a year. that
• 25:40
  Speaker 3: are reserved for hunters between the ages of 10 and 16.
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: So between the ages of 10 and 16, I had
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: to go on four hunts a year, two weekends, both
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: weekend days, every year. I hated it. And every time
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: that we would go out there, I would get a
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: stomach ache. And I would be like, and it wasn't real.
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: I was just like desperately trying to get out of
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: going to the hunting. And it wasn't because I didn't
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: want to kill animals. It was just because I didn't
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: want to wake up early and like be out there
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: with my dad. And I do think there's a certain
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: level of respect that I would have garnered if I
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: had said at a certain point, I just don't want
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: to be out here. Like it's not my vibe. I'm
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: not thriving. I don't want to wake up early. I
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: don't want to do this. And that's kind of what
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: I get from this. That like, if he had just
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: been like, cause every time he adds another layer of
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: like why I had to leave. One of my other
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: favorite like lessons that I learned from my dad early on,
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: and this is kind of rough. He said, if you're
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: going to tell a lie, tell one lie. Don't tell
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: multiple lies. Like don't say like, I didn't kill like
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: Nicole Brown Simpson or, Because like the glove didn't fit.
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: And also like she wasn't there. And also I like
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: I loved her. And also like I was out with friends.
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: Like tell one lie. The glove didn't fit. That's it.
• 27:16
  Speaker 3: So like I just kind of feel like this like
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: building on things where he's like, well, like, you know,
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: and this and this and that. Just tell everybody I
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: didn't want to be out there anymore. I was sad.
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: It was hard. I know I look tough. I help
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: people get into their planes. That's what I'm best at.
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: I want to go home.
• 27:36
  Speaker 5: That's really good advice if you want to manage your
• 27:39
  Speaker 5: reputation and if you want to get acquitted for murder.
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: Of course.
• 27:44
  Speaker 5: So just keep that in mind, everybody.
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: Wait, Petey, what's your thoughts? I want to know yours.
• 27:51
  Speaker 5: Well, on him becoming a lol cow. Are y'all familiar
• 27:53
  Speaker 5: with the term lol cow?
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: No.
• 27:56
  Speaker 5: So it's like LOL cow. This is what he is doing.
• 28:02
  Speaker 5: It's like when you're a YouTuber and then you become
• 28:04
  Speaker 5: disgraced and then the only community that you have is
• 28:09
  Speaker 5: people who watch just to hate you. And they'll give
• 28:12
  Speaker 5: you money to have you do embarrassing things. And it's
• 28:15
  Speaker 5: just this weird cycle that feeds into itself. And he's
• 28:20
  Speaker 5: a survivor lolcow and maybe the first one I've ever seen.
• 28:26
  Speaker 4: And, okay, hear me out here. In a world that
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: is so fractured that where people can't agree on anything,
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: there is something that is beautiful about the comments.
• 28:40
  Speaker 5: That Rob uniting us all?
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: Yes!
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: With his lol cow.
• 28:44
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 28:45
  Speaker 4: Everyone in the comments, what I'm actually seeing is not
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: people being... I mean, of course, you have that occasional
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: like stray comment or something that's like really nasty or
• 28:57
  Speaker 4: below the belt. But let's be real, you guys. I
• 29:00
  Speaker 4: spent an afternoon scrolling through his comments on Instagram, on TikTok,
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: Survivor Reddit.
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: And.
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: It brought me not a feeling of like anger or toxicity,
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: but pure unbridled joy. I love talking shit on people
• 29:20
  Speaker 4: when it is low stakes and it is funny. And
• 29:24
  Speaker 4: that is what this man is giving us. Right?
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: On top of that, I do feel like there is
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: something about... In these moments, you have to look at
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: not just what's being presented to you by the person,
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: but how that person is being received. And like, nobody
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: from this cast is trying to be like, no, the
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: Heron and the Otter are my friends.
• 29:52
  Speaker 5: Like, yeah. I mean, like Jax can tell you this
• 29:55
  Speaker 5: from us going to the watch party, Linnea, Ori and
• 29:57
  Speaker 5: Lewis were like, fuck that guy. And like, here's all
• 30:00
  Speaker 5: the reasons why he sucks and he's a liar in
• 30:02
  Speaker 5: this episode. And this was before any of us knew
• 30:04
  Speaker 5: that this was going to happen.
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: And Pantsless Pat is pissed because her exit is getting
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: overshadowed by Rob's exit press.
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: Well, did you guys see Anna's response? No.
• 30:17
  Speaker 5: What did Anna say? I heard she said she loved me,
• 30:20
  Speaker 5: but other than that.
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: Anna was like.
• 30:21
  Speaker 4: She did. She loves PD. We all do.
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: Anna said something to the effect of, wait, so if
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: Rob had quit during my... vote out would I still
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: be in the game and it was like dead skull
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: emoji dead skull emoji and I'm like if I'm Anna
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: I'm bad and you guys know I've said it enough
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: on this podcast alone not an Anna fan but if
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: I'm Anna I'm pissed because I'm like dude like you
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: could have like bowed out and I could have still
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: played the game I could have and per survivor history
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: like Anna two days is far enough to resurrect your
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: game Like, Anna could still be in the game if
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: Rob had just been, I'll say it, man enough to
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: have been like, I'm a little baby. I can't be here.
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: My hard cut hurt me earlier. Like, get out of here.
• 31:14
  Speaker 5: And not a little baby in the fun way like me.
• 31:18
  Speaker 4: PD, nobody is a little baby in the fun way
• 31:21
  Speaker 4: like you. You're special.
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: PD, mommy and daddy would love to hold you. And
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: you can figure out who's mommy.
• 31:27
  Speaker 5: And who's daddy. Will mommy and daddy pay for my
• 31:29
  Speaker 5: flight to New York? No, mommy.
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we'll get you on Frontier. Okay.
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, daddy.
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: I'll do it, Justin. Justin, I'll take you to Greenville.
• 31:38
  Speaker 5: Give me Alex's number. He'll get it done.
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: Alex was like, should I fly Justin to Greenville? He
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: did actually say that to me. Wow. I was like,
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: maybe you should.
• 31:49
  Speaker 5: But one of my favorite things about all of this.
• 31:50
  Speaker 5: He can probably hear me. He's in the next room. Yeah,
• 31:54
  Speaker 5: get him in here and tell him to buy me
• 31:55
  Speaker 5: a flight. But when Shaheen commented on the wall of
• 31:58
  Speaker 5: text video. and he said calling people soft over quitting
• 32:02
  Speaker 5: or while quitting over a paper cut is top tier
• 32:04
  Speaker 5: trolling salute emoji and then robs his response which is
• 32:10
  Speaker 5: very eloquent he said you triggered question mark.
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: I loved it.
• 32:18
  Speaker 4: He he's he's going back with and you know what
• 32:22
  Speaker 4: it was also amazing he said on um the pod
• 32:25
  Speaker 4: has spoken when he was talking to Tyson, which was
• 32:28
  Speaker 4: brilliant because Tyson does an exit interview with panelists, Pat,
• 32:33
  Speaker 4: that is about like 30 minutes and is what, what
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: they say, according to survivor Reddit was likely contractually obligated
• 32:42
  Speaker 4: interview with Rob, where you can tell he's just not
• 32:44
  Speaker 4: having it. Rob is saying, I was built for this.
• 32:49
  Speaker 4: I was built for TV. I was built to have haters.
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: I have thick skin. I'm like, Okay, like maybe, like
• 32:59
  Speaker 4: maybe you were, but I don't think, the thing is
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: he's not actually, there's something to be said for someone
• 33:10
  Speaker 4: who can be so divisive and I don't know, unique
• 33:16
  Speaker 4: in the way that they can piss people off, that
• 33:18
  Speaker 4: they'd have true haters. Like I genuinely think that's an achievement.
• 33:24
  Speaker 4: I think this is a little bit going to be
• 33:28
  Speaker 4: a flash in the pan for him, much to his
• 33:30
  Speaker 4: disappointment because he wants to carry this forward.
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: I will do the opposite of what Jax is doing,
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: which is to dismiss him.
• 33:39
  Speaker 5: But do you think that it's real, this persona that
• 33:42
  Speaker 5: he's projecting? Or do you think it's a veneer and
• 33:44
  Speaker 5: he goes into the bathroom and he cries about what
• 33:47
  Speaker 5: people are saying to him?
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: I'll meet him where he's at.
• 33:51
  Speaker 5: So you're taking it at face value.
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: I take it at face value. I think he's a
• 33:55
  Speaker 3: Rhode Island bitch. I think that he's like talking out
• 33:59
  Speaker 3: of his ass. I think that he's being like harsh.
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: And if Rob ever wants to go in like a
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: fist fight against me, I'd welcome it because I think
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: I'd win. Like I legitimately think that I would like
• 34:11
  Speaker 3: do it because there's just, there's this like bullshit because
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: like you can't meet people like him where they're at
• 34:19
  Speaker 3: logically because Because he exists in this world where he's like,
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: I'm tougher than everybody. Like, I think that I'm strong.
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: No matter what you say, logically, is not going to, like,
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: meet me. And, like, correct, like, logically, we'll never be
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: able to meet you because, like, we're not on the
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: same plane. So, like, I just think he operates from this, like,
• 34:41
  Speaker 3: machismo place that just is so boring and, like, tired of... And, like,
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: I think that, honestly, it's, like, a gift to us
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: that he's gone this early because, like, nobody like him
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: has ever made it deep in Survivor. Not because he
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: can't win Survivor, but because, like, there's no character development.
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: There's nothing interesting to talk about because, like, he's not
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: a person. He's, like, a caricature that just exists in
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: the world.
• 35:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you know.
• 35:19
  Speaker 4: I think that to your question, PD, of whether he's
• 35:23
  Speaker 4: like crying in the bathroom about this, I think, and
• 35:26
  Speaker 4: he's pretty much all but said this, that he, of course,
• 35:34
  Speaker 4: it would be great if everyone liked him. He says,
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: I love my supporters. Of course I love my supporters,
• 35:39
  Speaker 4: but I also love my haters kind of thing. I think, yes,
• 35:43
  Speaker 4: does it bug him that people don't, quote unquote, get
• 35:48
  Speaker 4: him and that he has more supporters?
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: Sure.
• 35:51
  Speaker 4: But I really do think that as Justin's saying, this
• 35:54
  Speaker 4: is kind of a boring, tired trope of a man.
• 35:57
  Speaker 4: And I do think that ultimately him having what he
• 36:02
  Speaker 4: perceives as haters and getting attention is so much more
• 36:06
  Speaker 4: energizing and fuels him. It other than being forgotten or
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: dismissed or people just being like, oh, it's okay. Don't
• 36:14
  Speaker 4: worry about it, buddy. Like some people really don't like
• 36:17
  Speaker 4: that negative attention and would be like, oh, I just
• 36:19
  Speaker 4: wish people would leave me alone. I'm embarrassed. Not him.
• 36:22
  Speaker 4: I mean, what do you think, PD? What do you
• 36:24
  Speaker 4: think is really going on inside this man's head?
• 36:28
  Speaker 5: I think it's driving him insane and he wants to
• 36:30
  Speaker 5: control the narrative. And so I don't think it's real.
• 36:34
  Speaker 5: I think it does bother him. I don't think he's
• 36:35
  Speaker 5: necessarily crying in the bathroom about it, but I think
• 36:38
  Speaker 5: that He's definitely in a rage every morning. You know
• 36:42
  Speaker 5: that 100%, no doubt, he's making his coffee, and he's
• 36:46
  Speaker 5: scrolling Instagram, and he's scrolling TikTok, and he's reading the
• 36:50
  Speaker 5: hundreds of people saying stuff like, bro really thought he
• 36:54
  Speaker 5: cooked here, and to which he replied, you, like I
• 36:57
  Speaker 5: cooked you. He got him. Is there anything left to
• 37:05
  Speaker 5: say about Rob, or should... I mean, do you want
• 37:08
  Speaker 5: to move on to Maggie's earrings? We could just talk
• 37:10
  Speaker 5: about those for 20 minutes.
• 37:11
  Speaker 4: I mean, Justin definitely has thoughts on Maggie's earrings.
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: I would, you know, let's do a whole other episode
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: on Maggie's earrings. But I think when it comes to Rob,
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: what's interesting, and when I think of the place he's
• 37:25
  Speaker 3: positioning himself in, like, the Survivor fandom, is, like, would...
• 37:31
  Speaker 3: I think it's a cheap shot to take to say,
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: would Parvati... respond the same would sandra respond the same
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: with all these people because like obviously that wouldn't so
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: like like let's choose the people that he is most
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: likely to want to emulate right would tony respond to
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: this no would rob respond to this no and if
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: they wouldn't i'm just kind of like Well, maybe that
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: just tells you where you exist in the Survivor fandom.
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: Because the comment that I saw on social media this
• 38:08
  Speaker 3: week that I think is the most illustrative of his
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: tenure is somebody said, does this guy think a day
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: six elimination is anybody that Jeff would bring back for
• 38:24
  Speaker 3: an All-Star season? And the answer is, nah, girl.
• 38:28
  Speaker 5: No but did you suggest that at some point that
• 38:30
  Speaker 5: he would get brought on an all-stars i.
• 38:32
  Speaker 3: Think that's what he's playing for because nobody is this
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: like effusive coming back in and being like no like
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: i was like a hard ass i would have won
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: the season all right diva yeah me too i would
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: have won the season from home cheers the.
• 38:47
  Speaker 5: Only all-star he's getting is from waffle house.
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: Oh, don't, don't, no, no, no, no, no. I'm mad
• 38:54
  Speaker 3: now because don't you ever, don't you ever PD put
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: that kind of negativity on a Waffle House?
• 39:03
  Speaker 5: Well, I'd be, he would, he'd be giving them $ 15.
• 39:05
  Speaker 5: It'd be good for Waffle House.
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: Waffle House doesn't need that man's money. I.
• 39:12
  Speaker 4: He has been saying, get ready for Rob 2.0. On what? Oh,
• 39:18
  Speaker 4: he's been saying it on, like, on social media, on podcasts. Like,
• 39:22
  Speaker 4: he's been saying, like, he's coming back.
• 39:23
  Speaker 5: But, like, where is Rob 2.0 gonna take place.
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: He also is the space between Maggie's earrings.
• 39:31
  Speaker 5: Yeah we're gonna shrink Rob and put him in Maggie
• 39:35
  Speaker 5: in one of Maggie's hoops.
• 39:38
  Speaker 4: Oh I would love that like a honey I shrunk
• 39:40
  Speaker 4: the kids and he's in Maggie's hoops and she can
• 39:42
  Speaker 4: take care of him and like cuddle him he's like
• 39:44
  Speaker 4: we're gonna.
• 39:44
  Speaker 5: Win ooh that's what the pink substance does it shrinks.
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: You The pink substance makes you eligible to come back
• 39:52
  Speaker 3: into the same season you were eliminated from.
• 39:56
  Speaker 4: I really think he's making a play, which he pretty
• 39:59
  Speaker 4: much just said, so this isn't me being perceptive, that
• 40:04
  Speaker 4: he wants to be a reality TV star. He realized
• 40:06
  Speaker 4: this wasn't the show for him, and this is his
• 40:09
  Speaker 4: audition for future seasons. of other reality TV shows. And
• 40:16
  Speaker 4: I'd be interested to see if it works.
• 40:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 40:20
  Speaker 5: Well, Justin, do you want to give a closing thought
• 40:22
  Speaker 5: on Rob before I tell you something about Maggie?
• 40:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, of course. Bye.
• 40:29
  Speaker 5: So that's it.
• 40:30
  Speaker 3: All right. Bye.
• 40:30
  Speaker 5: Bye, Rob. Justin, I don't know if you know about this,
• 40:34
  Speaker 5: but Maggie recently went out like on, on Instagram and,
• 40:39
  Speaker 5: She's had one since apparently, I just scrolled back to
• 40:42
  Speaker 5: her first post. She's had one since 2012, but she
• 40:46
  Speaker 5: just recently made it public. And so if you want
• 40:50
  Speaker 5: to go learn some more about Maggie dating all the
• 40:53
  Speaker 5: way back to, are you afraid of what you'll find
• 40:56
  Speaker 5: in there?
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: I'm so worried.
• 40:58
  Speaker 5: It looks wholesome to me. It's like coffee and pregnancy
• 41:02
  Speaker 5: pictures and fruit.
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: Uh-huh.
• 41:06
  Speaker 5: I think it's safe to go in there, but it
• 41:07
  Speaker 5: was really cute.
• 41:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Oh, I thought you were teeing me up or something.
• 41:12
  Speaker 5: No, I was just, I was just telling, I was
• 41:14
  Speaker 5: like informing you that Maggie's on Instagram.
• 41:18
  Speaker 4: Were you afraid she was a bigot?
• 41:20
  Speaker 3: No, I was, I literally took my glasses off and
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: I feel like this is some context that you guys
• 41:24
  Speaker 3: should have known beforehand. I'm literally like, like legally blind
• 41:30
  Speaker 3: without my glasses. So when I take them off, like
• 41:33
  Speaker 3: I don't want to know. And I do feel like
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: we've entered this, like, period of life where, like, you
• 41:38
  Speaker 3: come across a certain person and I think that you
• 41:41
  Speaker 3: have the right to say, like, no. Like, I just,
• 41:44
  Speaker 3: for a minute, I just don't want to know. But
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: the fact that there's nothing that, like, flags as worrisome
• 41:53
  Speaker 3: thrills me because I really do believe in my heart
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: of hearts. She is, like, our West Virginia queen. I
• 42:02
  Speaker 3: think she's such a gosh darn delight.
• 42:03
  Speaker 4: I also, to the point.
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: To the point where, like, I even want to, like,
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: take back my comment about a hooker hoops. Because, like,
• 42:10
  Speaker 3: if it's offended anybody, specifically Maggie, like, I want to
• 42:15
  Speaker 3: take it back. Because I do think the more that
• 42:18
  Speaker 3: I watch this season, the more that I'm emboldened. I
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: think she's winning. Wow.
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 42:26
  Speaker 4: I really hope that Kristen wins, though. Because Kristen is doing... Like,
• 42:31
  Speaker 4: I loved Kristen's... She did a recap of the last
• 42:35
  Speaker 4: episode with her fiancé. I don't think it's her wife yet.
• 42:38
  Speaker 4: And she was like, what do you think about Rob's exit, honey?
• 42:42
  Speaker 4: And her wife just looked straight at the camera and said, blink, blink, blink.
• 42:47
  Speaker 4: And I just think they're so adorable. And I hope
• 42:50
  Speaker 4: that our final three is Kristen, Linnea, and Maggie.
• 42:55
  Speaker 5: And Devin. Oh, sorry. And Maggie.
• 42:59
  Speaker 4: Jelly, maybe.
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: Jelly.
• 42:59
  Speaker 4: Jelly.
• 43:02
  Speaker 5: What's wrong? You don't want to support a fellow gay
• 43:04
  Speaker 5: man in Devin? Clock it. Clock it. Wait, I think Devin's...
• 43:09
  Speaker 5: Devin is on the TV show Queer as Falk. He
• 43:13
  Speaker 5: went to Gay Surf Week in Puerto Rico. Oh, I like.
• 43:16
  Speaker 4: Him better now. I thought he was just a straight guy.
• 43:19
  Speaker 3: Devin is quickly turning a corner for me.
• 43:24
  Speaker 5: Because he looks like Jalen Hurts? Because you realized I
• 43:25
  Speaker 5: was right?
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: Brother.
• 43:27
  Speaker 3: Brother. come to my podcast. Jalen hurts is my daddy
• 43:31
  Speaker 3: for further commentary on Jalen hurts.
• 43:34
  Speaker 5: But you're a bills fan. You can't say that.
• 43:38
  Speaker 3: Trust and believe I can. Um, Devin is quickly turning
• 43:43
  Speaker 3: a corner because he is so delusional and so stupid.
• 43:49
  Speaker 3: Like of the three episodes that we've seen, the three
• 43:52
  Speaker 3: like vote outs that we've seen, um, he has had
• 43:57
  Speaker 3: the opportunity to be on the majority, like an open
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: opportunity and has always ended up in the minority. Devin
• 44:05
  Speaker 3: is quickly approaching like camp to me because he's so
• 44:10
  Speaker 3: stupid that I'm almost on the other side of standing.
• 44:15
  Speaker 5: And before I do want to play this clip of Maggie.
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: Oh God.
• 44:19
  Speaker 5: Before we get out of here. And it's so endearing.
• 44:22
  Speaker 5: This is her, like her first public statement on Instagram.
• 44:27
  Speaker 3: I've done three interviews. I did a newspaper.
• 44:32
  Speaker 5: Oh, wait. I need to find what was the first one.
• 44:35
  Speaker 4: My name is Maggie.
• 44:38
  Speaker 5: Not that.
• 44:40
  Speaker 4: That sounds great. My name is Maggie.
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: Me too.
• 44:44
  Speaker 4: We are all Maggie.
• 44:47
  Speaker 5: I will find this eventually. This is it.
• 44:51
  Speaker 3: Maggie Strong.
• 44:52
  Speaker 4: Helicopter Alliance, baby.
• 45:13
  Speaker 5: I don't think this is the right thing either. No,
• 45:15
  Speaker 5: I don't like this. She's whispering. I saw some video
• 45:20
  Speaker 5: where she's like, I'm new here and please DM me advice.
• 45:24
  Speaker 5: And that's what I was trying to find just now.
• 45:26
  Speaker 5: Wait a minute.
• 45:27
  Speaker 4: We need to be doing that and supporting our girl.
• 45:30
  Speaker 5: Yeah, definitely. And hopefully she hasn't listened because I don't
• 45:35
  Speaker 5: think she would enjoy this program very much.
• 45:37
  Speaker 4: I think she might.
• 45:40
  Speaker 3: So one of the things that's brought me a bit
• 45:42
  Speaker 3: of a pause in contributing is that you guys do
• 45:45
  Speaker 3: seem to find people along the way that listen and
• 45:49
  Speaker 3: embrace it.
• 45:50
  Speaker 5: Kilby's been in the comments multiple times.
• 45:54
  Speaker 3: Survivors, if you're listening, if you're one of the ones
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: that have made it this far, I want you to
• 46:00
  Speaker 3: know I don't care about you. You are not somebody
• 46:05
  Speaker 3: that brings my attention unless... Your name is Maggie. Because
• 46:11
  Speaker 3: in this fraught, fraught, terrible world, I do believe that
• 46:17
  Speaker 3: you are good. And like, I just need you to
• 46:21
  Speaker 3: know that like I'm rooting for you. I don't need
• 46:24
  Speaker 3: to hear from you ever. But I do think that
• 46:27
  Speaker 3: you're good. And like, I'm rooting for you, sister. I
• 46:30
  Speaker 3: hope you take it to the end. And if you don't,
• 46:32
  Speaker 3: I wish you joy and happiness. But most of all,
• 46:36
  Speaker 3: I wish you this. I wish you love.
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 46:39
  Speaker 5: I feel like that's where we need to end it.
• 46:43
  Speaker 3: Maggie forever.
• 46:44
  Speaker 4: Amen.
• 46:47
  Speaker 3: No, should we just end it?
• 46:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah, probably Maggie forever and to non, by the way,
• 46:52
  Speaker 5: to non they brand and chase scoffed at me for
• 46:55
  Speaker 5: trying to give to non credit for the move that
• 46:57
  Speaker 5: she made. which is crazy anyway.
• 47:00
  Speaker 4: Well, no, actually just quickly before we go, I do
• 47:03
  Speaker 4: have to say PD, thank God that you're doing that
• 47:05
  Speaker 4: because the discourse online in the survivor forums, the fact
• 47:10
  Speaker 4: that to non is not getting more screen time and
• 47:14
  Speaker 4: that is her move. She should get credit. It's also
• 47:16
  Speaker 4: saying something about the way that women and women of
• 47:19
  Speaker 4: color are edited on survivor. So chase and brand is,
• 47:24
  Speaker 4: can fuck right off.
• 47:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 47:26
  Speaker 4: And thank you for talking about to non, because I
• 47:29
  Speaker 4: hope we see more of her and I hope she
• 47:31
  Speaker 4: goes all the way.
• 47:32
  Speaker 3: And I like this. And I know I'm done.
• 47:38
  Speaker 6: You're about to hear some ads that help keep the
• 47:40
  Speaker 6: lights on here in the old studio. Thanks for listening
• 47:45
  Speaker 6: or don't listen. It's really up to you at this point.
• 47:48
  Speaker 6: It's at the end of the show. I mean, you're
• 47:50
  Speaker 6: listening to me.
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: Hi.
• 47:52
  Speaker 5: But here they come.
• 47:53
  Speaker 6: I promise they're coming.
• 47:54
  Speaker 5: Yep, here they are. Happy day.
