  Speaker 1: addition to celebrity guests, whether in the unscripted space or

  Speaker 3: ring the whole episode, and shit like, wake me up
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: when it's over. God damn it.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: The entertainment is.
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: Gone, gone no more. No more of Candice's antics, no
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: more of her her fashions, no more of her witty retorts,
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: no more of her wonderful interview confessional scenes that we
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: adored that added just the right amount of context and
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: camp to the situation. We don't get any of that
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: no more. What are we stuck with? Carlos Natalie Steven
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: who Eric? We stuck? We stuck. We ain't got nothing, man, nothing,
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: We ain't got ship Okay, we ain't got ship left
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: for us on this damn show. Nothing. I'm Eric, so yes, yeah, yeah,
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: we love Eric. We love Eric. He cool, but yeah,
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: like you know, it just it's a different show. We
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: were watching Carlos. This is a different show at this point.
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: Let me tell your personality, you know what I mean.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: It's it's and you know, look, one of the rules
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: of big a reality producer is the fact that you
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: never ever want to assume that, Okay, this person is
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: the show, and when this person is gone, the show unwrapplers,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: because you know, all the girls be like, I'm the
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: start of the show.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: There's a show without me. You know, we all like
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: a healthy ego.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: Well, I will say as we start to recap this
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: particular episode, is it really did show you that the
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: last standing entertainment value was Candace? And we all said
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: episode one that Candace was the star of the season,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: even when we had Portie, Lisa, Rna. You know, you
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: you've had other people where you were like, listen as
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: much shit as you and I talk about what's his name?
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: No, the oh, what's his name?
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: Wait? Who? Because we didn't talked about a few of
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: them motherfuckers. So whoot report. Oh oh see, I have
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: I blacked him out. I forgot about.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: That, and that wasn't me trying to be funny. I
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: completely forgot about him.
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, me too.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: But at least it was something to watch, you know.
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah he did give us something to work with. Yees. Yeah, yeah,
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: it's funny too, Carlos. Because on a show like Traders,
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: where you have to fly under the radar and be unassuming, right,
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: it's got to be difficult to infuse parts of your
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: personality in a way that will garner and generate interest
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: from the audience, right, you got to figure that out
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: as talent. People think it's just simple, you know, to
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: be a celebrity or to be cast on one of
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: these shows, but it's not. There's an ask here, right,
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: especially on the Traders. You have to be unassuming, but
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: also you got to find a way to infuse your
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: personality and make yourself interesting on this show. So hats
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: off to the motherfuckers like Candice and Tiffany and people
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: whose person and Derinda, people whose personality shine through you
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, even though they had the job
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: to do. I think it's a testament too. Yes, their
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: fitness on a show like this, you know.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes, I could not agree more on This episode
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: was evident of that.
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: So it kicks off with Rob telling.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: Eric that you know, he is going well number one,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: revealing that he's the trader, and you know, Eric had
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: a great reaction because it was a gag, not for
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: the audience because we already knew, but for Eric due
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: to the fact that Rob has played all of them,
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: you know, So his big reaction some mu solidified what
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: we all know was the fact that Rob got these
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: motherfuckers fooled.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: And as you and I love.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: The art of this game, we will get Rob his
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: props in that regard he's playing.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: He's playing a good game.
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: Just because he outsmarted someone that I wanted to win
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: the show does not negate the fact that he outsmarted
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: someone I wanted to win the show. Rob is playing
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: the hell out of this game. It is what it is.
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: And when you look at what's going on on that
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: screen through the lens of just watching a game being played,
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: and you take your favorites and your emotions out of it,
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: he's knocking it out the park Man. They don't get
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: no better man. Rob is literally playing an incredible game
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: on this show.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: He really really is.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Were you surprised when Eric decided to join him in
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: his treachery versus being murdered?
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: Not at all, because I think Eric thinks Rob is cute,
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: So I wasn't surprised that I think he is enamored
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: with him in a way that will lend itself to
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: him conceding or agreeing or going along to get along,
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. I think that's what that was.
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: So I wasn't surprised at all, especially when Rob started
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: adjusting Eric's hood on his his trader's cape and all
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: that other stuff, and tell him you look straightened up
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: your finger, you look. I was like, oh, okay, I
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: see what's going on here, And I'm not mad. Little manipulation,
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: you know, never hurt nobody.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: The thing for me is Rob is playing up his
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: looks when it comes to the gays and the girls,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: and it's working, and it's so masterful to me because.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Listen, I'm not hating on it. I called it gay
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: for play. You know.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: Rob is definitely flirting with the with the gay boys.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: He did it with Colton, He's doing it with Eric
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: and is working for his advantage. Eric's response of like, yes,
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: I will serve you. I can't serve you when we
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: are sent home in the way that I would like to.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: But but master, oh, master, masterfold piece. Man, you are
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: the masterpiece. I will serve you in this game in
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: this way if that means I get to be close
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: with you in a dungeon.
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: Mm hmmm, mm hmmm. Yeah, that's what it was. You
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. Eric, Literally he got to that
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: turret and he put his arms around that damn thing
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: like this. He said, I so what we're gonna do next? Rob? Okay,
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: That's what it was. That was the energy and I
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: you know, hey, it shout out to Rob. You got
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: to use what you can't what what did.
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: Use what you got to get what you want?
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: And what did Mariah Carey say when she was at
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: that that performance next to the DJ. I'm gonna do
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: the best I can what I got. That's exactly what Robs.
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: That was his mantra, his rashanale. That was that was
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: what he used to propel himself forward in this game.
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: He used he is using, okay, in real time what
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: he had to get what he wants. You know what
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: I'm saying, and I, hey, did show for it? We
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: were watching a better show for it. It was boring
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: this week because all of the fund's gone, but we
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: still want to know what happens, and so we're going
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: to see it through. And while we're seeing it through,
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: what we're seeing is Rob have excellent gameplay, for sure.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: One of the things that I thought about immediately, and
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: I wondering if it crossed your mind, because again, if
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: I'm here to play the game, and yes, I'm surprised
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: that Rob is a trader, I would immediately be like,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: wait a second, hold on, Rob voted for Lisa.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: And Candace.
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: Okay, why would I even trust him? And that to
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: me is where you know Ari's googly eyes is then
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: really focused on wasn't in front of him? Which is
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: this man cannot be trusted.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: He went and gets me.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: On like he voted off the other two traders. What
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: makes you think you're safe? And Eric has not even
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: come to that conclusion, and I just thought to myself,
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: it's obvious Rob may take this all the way home.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: Because even something so obvious, Eric doesn't even see yet.
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: Mm hm, he don't see it because he's too busy
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: Rob makes Eric's ears hard and so you know what
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: I'm saying, he gave him. He gave him an ear
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: hard on, you know what I'm saying. So he can't
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: he just can't see past it, you know what I'm saying.
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: He's blinded by the light like that that Rocks blinded
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: by the light. He's blinded by the light of Rob Man.
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: He cannot see beyond that, so much so that he
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: was willing to even switch it up. I'm going to
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: be a faithful to the end this game. Maybe I
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: can be a trader's like Eric. Okay, okay, but it's
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: good and listen you at the end of the day, again,
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: he cannot hate on the fact that Rob is playing
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: the hell out of this game. He had a job
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: to do and he's getting in there and doing it.
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: And even though you know, some of our faves got
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: caught in the wake of that, we cannot omit or
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: or erase the fact that he is playing the fuck
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: out of this game. He is, and you can't hate
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: on that he's doing his job.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: No, he really is.
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: They decided to kill off the Dirnda.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: I didn't understand that decision in terms of nobody suspected Direnda.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: To me, it was a throwaway sweat up like a
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: murderer in the middle of the night.
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: Why do you think they decided to offer her because
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: it was I feel like it wasn't It wasn't gonna
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: trace back to anyone. Derinda was a miscellaneous, like you said,
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: a throwaway murder, throwaway vogue. We love Derenda, we love
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: seeing her have her second roll, go at being on
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: the traders and lasts a little longer, you know what
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: I'm saying. But Derinda wasn't really and maybe this is
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: maybe she was playing a great game, but Derenda wasn't
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: really moving the needle either way. Denda was coasting and
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: so to me by her not kind of leading the
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: charge with anything and just kind of like going along
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: to get along. She just it was a tempid gameplay
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: from her, and I think that that just resulted in
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: it's your time, you know what I'm saying, It's her
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: time to go, because it just was.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: Rob is so comfortable Dustin that when this motherfucker was
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: in his cropped sweater vest lay out on the couch
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: like these, he is truly owning the joint. But meanwhile,
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: you have Kristen and I know she's one of our favorites.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: Who told terror to her face how she thinks it's
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: her and she said.
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: So off. She's so completely off. I was watching her
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: like girl until she was on. She was off until
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: she was on. But the problem was she was talking
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: to the devil. You know what I'm saying. I think
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: I know who the devil is and you're talking to Satan,
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: so like, what are you? You know what I'm saying.
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: It was a little higher. She was so far off.
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: They were so far off it was crazy to watch.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: What did you think though of Johnny and Tara's gameplay,
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: because in the beginning of the season, they both said,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: we are not going to let people know her best
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: friends and they are best best, best best friends, and
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: for the past couple of weeks they've done a good
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: job at hiding their friendship.
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: Do you think it was a smart move for.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: Them to finally reveal that, look, we are best friends
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: because everybody believes that Johnny is a trader due how
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: close he and Candace.
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: Were before you got I think it was smart. I
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: think that it kind of shook things up. I think
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: that nobody really knew what was going on. They were
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: kind of stunned by the revelation that they actually are
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: best friends and love each other and are close and
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: are playing the game together. I think that was a
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: surprise to most people, and I personally loved it. I
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: think that it shook things up at that round table,
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: and you see the vote went a different way, you
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. Like, once once the conversations began,
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: and once him, Johnny and Tara kind of really just
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: bum rushed to the round table like that. I loved it.
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: I thought it was great.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: This is reality with the King, and I'm Carlos King.
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: Let's get back into the show. And the thing for
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: me when.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: It comes to Tara and Johnny, I'm curious in terms
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: of as we saw them at the round table, Tara
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: spoke first. And one thing that our Detroit says, Tiffany
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: told us last week, Dustin.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: Yes, how they really, you know.
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: The producers let the cast talk, and how nobody wants
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: to be the first to speak.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: I thought I was.
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: Smart for Tar to speak, especially because at the whole game,
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: Rob and Eric decided to constantly throw her name in
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: the hat in terms of the Trader's game. So her
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: speaking first to me, I thought was another bold move
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: in terms of whether or not they are going to
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: survive another week, because I personally think that when it
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: comes to Johnny Johnny, I think Johnny's days are numbered.
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: I do too, but I do think that. Listen, we
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: thought Johnny was going home this week, you know what
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: I'm saying, and they were. He was able to rise
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: like Stacy Rush. He was able to rise at the
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: round table and then do what he needs to do
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: with the help of Terror. So that to me represents
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: us a little bit more Wherewithal, a little bit more
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: tenacity from him that we didn't know he had. And
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: so I don't know, Johnny might not go home next week,
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying, Like, we never know what
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: will happen from one roundtable to the next. So I
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: after things shifted him at that roundtable and Steven ended
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: up going home, I really feel like Johnny and Terror
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: may be a little bit stronger than we realized as
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: a coupling, as a group playing this game, as a
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: duo of faithfuls, they may be a little bit stronger
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: than we realized. Because he survived a roundtable when he
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: was really up for elimination.
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: So do you think those two can like be a
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: powerful duo to like really take this shit home.
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: Hell yeah, if they play their cards right. The only
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: thing is, excuse me, Rob has that dagger, so which
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: is two votes? Remember, and it's two of them. Excuse me,
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: Rob has that side.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: Baby, not.
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: Rob has that dagger, you know what I'm saying.
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: Because daggers and the other word kind of rhys go.
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: Ahead, So you know, so there's two of them. Rob
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: has that dagger, so he has two more votes. So
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: it'll just be interesting to see how this plays out.
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: But I do believe that I think that Johnny and Terry,
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: if they play their cards right like they did in
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: this episode, right because Johnny ended up surviving, which is
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: really the ultimate goal here, right, is to continue in
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: the game. And if they were able to do that
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: this week, I think they'll be able to do that
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: at the next couple round tables. So it'll be interesting
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: to see how far they go.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: What did you think though about Natalie revealing softly the
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: that Rob has the daggers, So that pot was confused
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: because I didn't know if she whispered did and only
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: a you know, maybe Rob heard her or did everybody
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: at the round table hear her?
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: I heard her. I feel like everybody that was available
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: to hear her should have been listening. Okay. So I
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: don't know the answer to that question, but I heard it, okay,
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: and I feel like I don't know. I just to me,
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: I put it like this, if I were a trader,
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: Natalie and Kristen would be on the first thing smoking.
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: They'd be on the midnight train to wherever they're from.
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying That they would have been gone.
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: They are on the trail. Kristin is definitely on the hunt.
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: She can smell the traders. I think it is not
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: too far behind, even though she's completely off. That only
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: takes one conversation right to redirect her, and once she
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: Natalie is the type of player that if she's given
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: any sort of hint as to the right path to take,
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: she will not stop until they mow them traders down.
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: So all they got to do is just point Natalie
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: in the right direction, and her and Kristen could really
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: take them two traders out. So it'll be interesting to see.
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: That's all I know. Even though our players of excitement
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: are no longer there, the possibilities of the way that
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: this thing could go moving forward, make it exciting enough
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: to continue watching and see what's going to happen.
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: The biggest thing on social media was the question and
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: I would love to get your thoughts on it, because
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: you're the expert and the trader. This is my first
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: season watching, but a lot of people raise the same question,
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: and I was like, good question was the fact that
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: if this was any other season and a trader i e.
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: Candas did a.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: Throwaway vote then tried to get someone out, which is Rob.
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: Do you think that alone should have provided suspicion to
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: the other faithfuls that if this trader was gone, could
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: she be trying to get rid of somebody else?
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: Because when they flashed.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: Back the moment Candace had her one of the up
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: with Steven and she told Derendam to Johnna to get away.
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: No one really clocked that Rob, which is Stephen, who dufest?
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: Rob told me Carlo one damn job.
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: The fact that he told Stephen, hey, can you go?
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: I want to talk to candas Stephen alone should have
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: been like wait a second. Rob told me to remove
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: myself from kandas Canda was already giving me tea that
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: Robbed could be it Canvas votes for rob again. She
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: gets sit home and that that didn't clock click.
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: All you have to do backwards? No, it's not normal
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: because literally we all were watching that screen doing like
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: Beyonce did in that Girl video. Remember when she was
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: like watching that screen, Like what the you don't put
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: that together? Like what are you? Of course, all you
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: have to do, right, Carlos, All you have to do.
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: You cannot lie.
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: All you got to do is put it together and
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: work backwards. If you literally start thinking backwards from whatever
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: just happened, and you start putting the pieces together of
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: what happened previously, you'll put it together. So I don't know,
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: it would have clicked for me and it clicked for you, Carlos.
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: I don't know, but it would have clicked for you.
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: It would have clicked for me, but it didn't click
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: for the Okay, So.
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: The biggest bomb in this episode was when Kristen clocked Eric. Now, now, Dustin,
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: I did not see this moment coming. Kristen tells Eric,
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: you were really quiet in the roundtable, and that's unlike you.
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: You're normally more vocal, You normally have a lot to say.
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: You even use canvas word about a throwaway. Eric is
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: the most horrible choice of a trader. But before I
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: get to your theory as to why Rob chose him,
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: because there's another theory the audience is having.
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: What did you make of Christen clocking Eric?
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: Because I truly did not.
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: See that coming. I don't think anybody saw it coming either, Carlos,
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: because it happened in real time, like Kristen was expressing herself,
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: her the cadence of her speech to reflect that, the
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: fact that her thoughts were running in real time while
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: she was speaking, and she literally just was like, I mean,
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: you didn't take you got to do something like you
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: didn't like she was thinking and putting the pieces together
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: in the moment, And so listen, all Eric did was
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: do he He pulled his same old, same on. And
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: mind you, he was a faithful before. So now that
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: he's doing the same thing as a trader that he
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: did when he was a faithful it's comical to me
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: because as soon as she started putting the heat on
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: his ass, what did he do? You know what I'm saying?
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: It was that same shit, But now it looks faker
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: to us, more fake because we know he's lying, and
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: so I don't think that Eric was a good choice
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: to bring in as a trader. We're gonna see what happens,
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: but I don't think he was a good choice. I think,
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: if anything, that he'll just be eliminated faster.
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: Do you think Rob chose Eric because ultimately he will
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: set him up the way he did Candace and Lisa.
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but the difference is that Candice and Lisa both
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: were actively working to assist the traders in getting to
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: the end. Eric is just trying to survive. He was
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: he was. He into the game as a faithful even
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: though he is a a person who we know can
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: play dirty, right, we know he can play dirty, but
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: he's not good at it, and that's the difference. And
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: so I don't think that he'll have a very long
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: Although we only have a few episodes left, it's not
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: a whole lot of time left in the game. I
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: think I foresee Eric getting the fuck up out of here.
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: I do, I do. I don't think he'll make it.
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: I think if Rob wins this thing as a trader,
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: he's gonna go all the way to the end by himself.
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: M hm.
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: He is given sit home next week.
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: Probably Eric has shit to be the way Rib be rolling.
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying like that, you know who knows?
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: Probably Eric. That's what I think.
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: I see Eric too, And and the thing that that
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: that I do see is I think because Kristen stands
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: on business and we saw how she did it with Terra,
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: I think she I think the difference is she's she's
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: so familiar with Eric that she now really has her
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: eyes set on him. And one thing we know Rob
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: is capable of doing if he gets too much on them,
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: he is going to throw Eric under the bus any
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: chance he gets. And like you said earlier, he still
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: has the power of a dagger that he's not going
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: to use until.
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, yes, yes, So it'll be interesting they all
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: Rob again. I can't stress it enough. I know I
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: sound like a broken record, but Rob is playing the
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: game well. He's setting him self up for security, he's
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: setting himself up for the win. And although I didn't
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: want it to be him that one. I can't be
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: mad at a smart play, a smart you know, gameplay.
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: I can't be mad at that. And that's exactly what
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: he's doing. Eric is a temporary tool, a temporary minion
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: of Rob's masterful plan to win this game. So I
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: don't know me personally, I don't I don't know. If
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: I would have accepted Rob's invitation to be a trader.
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: You would have been you would have said, murdered me.
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: I think so, why because because after I would have
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: seen that he was a trader in that moment, I
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: would have just put everything together. And after I would
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: have seen that he was a trader, I would have thought, damn,
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: So he got the other two traders up out of here.
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: He's playing for himself, Like I already know that. It's
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: this late in the game. You know what I'm saying,
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: It's not really enough time for me to kind of
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: work around him. I don't know. I might just went home.
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: That's interesting because of that, I.
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: Feel like he would have went home anyway, right, It
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: was like go home now, or you wait for Rob
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: to play you and get sent home. Right, So play
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: him first and go home.
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: Well, And to your point, the thing is this, if
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: Eric had an and he doesn't like Eric, Eric doesn't
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: have any leadership quality.
• 26:18
  Speaker 4: He's always wrong and he blends in.
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: I think to your point, if your decision of joining
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: his treachery was not to take him out.
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: You should have just murdered me.
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: Right, because he gonna murder you anyway? Yes, yes, yeah, yes.
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: How many more episodes? Okay, so this was episode eight?
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: You know, how many more episodes do we have until
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: we see the reunion? Because we don't have our stars anymore?
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: The interesting people have left the building high canvas? So
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: is it normally ten episodes?
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: I think eleven? I think I think it's not. You know,
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: I don't remember seether ten or eleven. I can't remember.
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: But the reunion is coming up, and the day that
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: the in previous seasons, the day that the last episode
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: is released, the reunion episode comes out that same day
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: as well, so we won't have to wait. Oh really, yeah,
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: it's usually like the finale and reunion are released together.
• 27:16
  Speaker 3: Is usually yeah, just one episode?
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: Okay, mm hmmm, and rain dropped, Just so y'all know
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: they taped the reunion yesterday. We don't know what happened,
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: and I don't want to know what happened, but I
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: think we're all waiting for the showdown between Candace and
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: Rob at the reunion.
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: I hope Candas and Tiffany cuts everybody the fuck out.
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: I hope they body shame people. I hope they. I
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: hope they. I hope they go on that show. Now
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: I'm just playing, but I hope they go on that show.
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: On that reunion. It set it on fire because those
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: women have something to say. You know what I mean
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: that I don't I think that after watching this season
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: and seeing some of the other methods that the players
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: have used to advance themselves exposed, I think that we
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: will be in for a great reunion. Yes, you know,
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: with those women armed with that information. And so I
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: can't wait. I cannot wait. And again, I just really
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: want some good I want to watch that screen. You
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: remember that lady. There was some protests in Washington, d C.
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: A few years ago, and there was a lady who
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: had on a mink coat and she was holding a
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: glass of champagne and she was standing on the porch
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: watching the protests going, and she was smiling. You don't
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: remember that, phone, I'm gonna show you, but that is
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: what that is. How I plan on watching this reunion, right,
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: I plan on watching Candice Customer ass cuts the ass out,
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: Tiffany cuts them out, and I'm having me a glass
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: of something to be sitting back smiling like you know,
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: that's what I'm rooting for. That's what I can't wait for.
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: Yes, you gotta be Oh Google, it was just looking
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: for this.
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: Look. It's a it's a white lady on a porch.
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: I think this was during the b l M protest too,
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: and that made it even sweeter. She's wearing a mink
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: coat and she's holding a glass of champagne, smiling as
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: a protest, watching it from her porch. And that is
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: the big mood for this You remember that picture.
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: I do remember this.
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: You remember that ship, don't you? Yes, that's the that
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: is the move for the Traders reunion.
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: Yes, And just so y'all know, this is Abaka Trump's
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: neighbor who is joyfully watching protests while sipping her wine.
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: In a perk.
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: Big mood, right, Carlo's big mood. That lady is a vibe.
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: That is that is the big move for this season
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: for a reunion.
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: As I watch it, their promise me for the reunion,
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: you are going to wear your fur coat.
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: Say, let's I put it on right here? The whole
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: episode to I'll be hot for you. I don't even
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: get it down.
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: Is everything well Dustill luck.
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: We have two more episodes, we believe, until the finale
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: Slash reunion. My prediction once again is I think Rob
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: is gonna take this all the way.
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: Homes Yeah, me too, me too. I mean, it's pretty obvious.
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: The writing's on the wall, the writing is on the overalls.
• 30:45
  Speaker 3: You can see it, you know, you know. And and
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: to be fair, it ain't like he had no I mean,
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: the only people who really could have put up a
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: fight against him, it could have really been his true
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: competitors were eliminated. Candice Tiffany, likeho, who else? You know
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: what I mean? Like he I nominated, So it's not
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: like he had stiff competition, you know what I mean?
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: Moving forward through this thing. So yeah, great gameplay, off,
• 31:11
