  Speaker 1: Chase. Today is not Today is not a day to
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: be taken lightly because we have the results said Mergy Awards.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: How does that make you feel?
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: It makes me feel great. I didn't get to be
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: here for the nominees. Yes, you know, hey, scheduling issues.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: It just happens. We're adults, and speaking of scheduling issues.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: The reason it's just me and you, we were gonna
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: have a fancy host. We it's gonna be like all
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: four of us, and then it just falls apart and
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: then it's just Hey, me and Jonathan are gonna dude.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: It's which PD just texted us. It was the loudest
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: thing I've ever heard in my years. Uh, let's see. Wait, no,
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: don't read this yet, don't read it. Don't read it, Okay,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: tell you what. I'm not going to read that, PD.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: So if you're listening to.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: Read it, because I read it ahead of you and
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: I know we need to save it for in a
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: little bit.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: Oh oh okay, okay, okay, Well, Chase, here's the thing though,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: is there were a lot of people participating in the
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: awards voting. This was we didn't know how this launch
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: would go, and p D and I were just thinking, hey,
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: it'd be cool if like twenty people voted on things, right,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: like that would be that would be pretty exciting mash success. Yeah. Well,
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: I mean on our very first voting opportunity, it was
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: like three hundred votes, dude, Like it was. It was
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: not a small number of people participating in this. So
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: we've really uh, we really went from zero to one hundred.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: But like you said, we had big plans. We really did.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: All right, Chase, let's just go ahead and jump into
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: it in the order with which we posted, because we
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: had the Quote of the Season award. The nominees were
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: saw with the quote fart, we had Kyle, and Kyle
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: was a two timer with two different quotes, and then
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: we had Rachel with her kind of funeral quote. And
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: so Chase, why don't you go ahead and open up
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: that beautiful envelope you have there?
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: All right? And the winner is Rachel's funeral.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: Wow, beautiful, beautiful.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: Here I'll read the full quote. I'll read her full quote.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: Go ahead and read that.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: I think the only thing better than attending your own
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: funeral is knowing that you're going to wake up alive
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: the next morning.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Wow, dude, that's a well deserved win.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: We're doing kind of like this like award show host
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: shtick right now, but in all reality, that is a
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: pretty baller quote.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: It's great. It's a great quote. I mean, we all
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: knew it was great when she said it while we
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: were watching alive.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: What a way to play an idol. From now on,
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: every survivor contested should, whenever they're about to do a
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: big power move, they should do a one liner like
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: their Arnold Towartzenegger.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: It felt like she had sat at camp all day
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: long just thinking.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: About what am I gonna hit him with?
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: My funeral? My funeral, you know, just planning so.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Many better being at your own funeral is knowing you'll
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: wake up the next morning. Jim, I'd like to play
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: my idol.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: I'm going to play my idol now.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: Jeff Run, Run, Rachel Run, Jeff Probs is.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this was this was our impersonation portion of the day, right,
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: you know, the Golden Globes. They had Matt Friend for
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: the impersonation stuff on the carpet tonight. Chase is gonna
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: be doing that for us. But uh, you know, congratulations
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: to Rachel.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Rachel, our first Mergie Award, winner of The.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Nine and the first winner of the Making the Merged Podcast.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: So I mean, yeah, you know, there's there's two wins
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: for Rachel. But we can't stick around on just one
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: thing right now, Chase, right, like, I mean, we've got
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: we've got way more to do, that's right.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: Our next nominations the Gone Too Soon Award. Yeah, this
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: is where we had everyone vote for who they thought
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: should have stayed in the game longer. And the nominees
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: are Honica, Asia, John love It, and TK.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: The winner is Honaka. Honaka is the winner of the
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Gone Too Soon Award. So we are, man, I'm telling
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: you what. That's again a well deserved win, Chase.
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: Kind of a docking one in my opinion.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: I thought I thought John was gonna take it for
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: a while. It was like watching a ping pong battle?
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: Is that what we call those? Now?
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: I really so? I nominated Asia right because I was
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: like she she, I know, John love It was kind
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: of a celebrity, and so it was kind of like
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: people wanted him to stick around. But Asia, Yeah, seemed
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: like she was going to be a power player throughout
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: the season. So the fact that she too is like crazy.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: Well John, I think for me, I nominated John, and
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: I'm not upset that he lost. I'm not gonna I'm
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: not gonna carry that negativity into the Mergy Awards results, right.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: I did nominate John because I felt like it would
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: have been really cool to see a speech writer taking
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: on like the jury or taking on you know, tribal
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: councils in general. But we really didn't get to see him,
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: get to demonstrate that he was gone. He's gone to one.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: But Anaka is taking it. We had a lot of
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: Anaka fans apparently listening here. Man, I wasn't anticipating that.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: And usually this is the part where I would say
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: what I'm about to say and PD would like jump
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: in with the actual facts.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: Oh uh oh.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: But I just like, I don't even remember anything Anica
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: did this season.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: You know, I don't either, dude, I really don't. This
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: is I was thinking, as I'm looking at her winning,
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: I kind of read it and was like, huh, I
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: remember her. If PD was here, PD would just like
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: nailed out like a list of five things that she
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: did in the season that was like really important. And
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: we were being like, oh, yeah, yeah, why did he?
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: This is why they leave us to the already predetermined information.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: They just gave us stuff. They're like read this. We're like, okay,
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: so funny dude.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: But he moving on to our next category.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: Oh boy, let me tell you this one. This one
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: was going to be tough. I could already tell, or
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: at least I thought so. So Funniest Castaway Award. Our
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: nominee are Andy, Sue, Kyle, and Saul, who gave us
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: the most Entertainment Chase.
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: And the winner is Andy.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Andy. Wow.
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: I should have seen it coming.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: Should have seen it coming, but we did not see
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: it coming in a landslide that we saw. I mean,
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: he took fifty two percent of the votes, Chase. Are
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: you seeing that?
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: Fifty two of one hundred and thirty one responses?
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: How over? What what does that mean?
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: Six people? Seventy people?
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah? That would that would account for the math? I
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: think so it's it was. I really thought that we
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: would see a harder contest there, but Andy swept it.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: I think he's the again a deserving winner. We got
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: a lot of entertainment out of him thrusting. Yeah, just
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: no stopped him like biting a ball with his teeth
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: and like moving it with his tongue.
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, you know I can't, I mean,
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: immediately Week one, episode one, giving us the banger. They
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: don't cheer when I opened cocon nuts.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: They don't cheer. I see how they look at me.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: I see how they don't cheer.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: Someone should do an edit of that monologue over like
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: some like really ominous music.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, over like Midwest emo music. You know, it just
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: sounds like a like a freaking death cab song something.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: Like you said. I thought this would have been closer
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: because this was a tough category soon yeah, part of
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: some really hilarious moments her age debacle, the red Paint,
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: the Red pain, exactly like tweedled and tweedled.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Dumb dude. I again thought it was gonna be closer,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: but Andy won in a landslide. It is not even
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: able to be argued. I mean, this one was really
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: close in comparison. Just to let people know, Anka with
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: the last vote, she won with thirty nine percent of
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: the vote. John was tailing in at thirty five percent
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: of the vote, so we're talking really close stuff. But Funniest, Dude,
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Funniest Award goes to Andy. Congratulations, Andy, We're.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: So gratulations on your mergery award in yes, and thank
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: you for the TikTok fuse, thank you.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: So okay, all right, Chase, why don't you go ahead
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: and in memory of your favorite contestant you've ever drafted,
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: go ahead and read us the nominees for the next award.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: The next category is the Big Mistake Award, and the
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: nominees are the Lavo Tribe, letting Rome do the puzzle,
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: Caroline not letting Sue play her idol for her, Andy
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: asking Rachel to vote for him when she's on the jury,
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: and keeping Andy in the first week.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: That was the one that you said it just saying
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: just in general, keeping Andy, and we all had a good, uh,
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: we had a good laugh about that nomination. And it's
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: true that was a that's a tough decision, but only
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: one of these decisions can be labeled the Biggest mistake, Chase.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: So the winner of the Big Mistake Award is Andy
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: telling Rachel she'd be on the Churry Wow, this.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: Congratulations as well.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: Slide another landslide, another landslide for sure, with fifty five
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: percent of the votes going to it, this does feel
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: like this does feel like a pretty big blunder to make.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: I mean, one of the biggest ones of the recent
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: probably the last five or six seasons for sure.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: And it was an embarrassing one too, Like knowing how
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: it ended, You're just like Andy, I know you feel
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: embarrassed watching that back.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: Like as bad if it wasn't like the same, like
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: it was happened right before the Tribal Council where Rachel
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: played one of the most baller eaves ever. So it's
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: just like the man, you look dumb.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah it really did not well well, it's just it. Yeah,
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: it's a big, big mistake. And so another award goes
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: to Andy, right, like, yeah, how does this? This makes
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: him a two time Mergy Award winner.
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: At this point, he's already doing great.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: He's doing better at this than he did the Game
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: of Survivor. Yeah, all right, moving on, because we've got
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: nothing else to talk about other than these awards. So
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: we've got the Baby Come Back Award. Okay, so this
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: is different than the gone too Soon Award. The Gone
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: Too Soon is a contestant you believe was gone too soon.
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: The Baby Come Back is, Hey, do I want that
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: person back in another season? Yeah? You know, because it's
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: not It's not the same thing. So the Baby Come
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: Back Award nominees are John love It, Saul Rome with
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: a question mark because I think all of us were
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: absolutely blown away that Kristen nominated Robe. I'm still confused
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: by it. I've been confused for the past week looking
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: at Kristen said are you sure? And then right after
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: that we had another nomination for Andy. Will Andy take
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: this chase? We opened the said fake envelope.
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: And the winner is Saul.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: I will say kind of a close one though, between
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: Saul and Andy.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: Yes, it was. It was very close because I think
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: that people like Andy as a character but not as
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: a player, and then people liked Saul as a player
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: and as a character and a person, so that's what
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: it gave him that edge. So we've got Saul with
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: fifty four percent of the votes taking the win the Baby.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: Come Back Award, and I really hope that he does
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: come back because I think we all do talk about
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: like the Gone Too Soon Award from earlier. Yep, Saul
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: like lasted.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: A long time.
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: The man did he deserve to at least be in
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: that final tribal man?
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: I agree, dude, he he to me deserved to make
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: it to like at the final three, in my opinion,
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: because if we watch back the amount of stuff he
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: survived with just Rome, Dude, he just he deserved to
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: go much further in the game. And I think that
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: he would do a much better job when handed hopefully
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: a better group of contestants to work with.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: I mean he was I think, you know, because he's
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: still People like him so much because he's such a
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: likable guy, such a fun Yeah. Obviously the Rome episode
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: where they are butting heads is what led a lot
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: of people to liking Soul, But people forget how entertaining
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: of a player he was, oh game wise, I mean,
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: he's the reason Rachel survived that week. Yeah, so's he
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: was just a ton of fun.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: One with a great poker face too. I mean him
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: sitting on that on the Jerry being like.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: Oh what just the stupid sexy saw yes, dripping with
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: Fiji rainwater.
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: We don't we don't have an award for most sexy
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: And I can't help. But notice we didn't. We don't
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: even have. We should have, but we know who's swept. Yeah,
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: why even do it? You know? Okay, Chase? All right?
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: Our next category is the Game Changer Award. Now, this
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: is what move from a player this season changed everything.
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: And the nominees are Kyle getting everyone to give up
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: their shot in the dark in exchange for Rice, Saul
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: saving Rachel with the safety without Power, Operation Italy, and
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: Rachel's funeral.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: Oh Man, Chase. All of these are game changers, but
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: only one of them can be the game changer. So
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: the winner of the Game Changer Award is Andy Pitches
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: Operation Italy. Dang dude, splendid, splendid move.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna be honest. This is the first one where
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: I disagree with the winner.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: I agree with you disagree, Chase. We're gonna be on
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: the same side with this because I believe that Saul
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: should have taken it with giving that advantage to Winchel.
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: Rachel won the whole season because of that move. That
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: was the biggest game changer move.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: Now, see, I think that Operation Italy was it could
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: have been in my opinion, Again, this is not this
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: is not negating the votes. Clearly the votes saw it differently.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: It was close by the way, it was Operation.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: Italy and Saul thirty four, yeah, thirty four percent to
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: four twenty three percent, and then Rachel's funeral coming, you know,
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: in third there. But I really think that Operation Italy
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: was like putting a band aid on an amputation.
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree. I don't even think that that because
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: that was a cool move, Yeah, don't. I think it
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: was an accident. I don't think that they were as
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: smart about it as they they thought they were.
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, and it was everything. It was almost luck
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: had to play out for them, super lucky. Now with
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: Saul saving Rachel, he just tactfully chose the right person
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: to receive that award, and that really changed the game
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: because if she she would have gone home that night.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: Yes, and everyone knew it. Everyone knew that Saul knew it,
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: and that's why he chose her because he knew that
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: she was the one going home and this was going
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: to put a giant twist in everyone's game that was
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: building for Rachel.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I'm glad look at that chase again. The
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: Mergy Awards are bringing us closer.
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: Dude, Yeah, maybe you know, maybe we're not the problem.
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: Maybe it's PD that's the problem. Maybe against each other.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: We have Yeah, look, I'm gonna pretend like I understood
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: a sports reference there for a moment.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: But he did a dog fighting.
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: Oh that's right, that's right. But it's two cats fighting,
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: is what we established earlier. I hate that we both
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: did that. Yes, I don't know, I don't have that
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: on my southboard, but I hate that we both chose
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: to do it at the same time. Anyway, Uh, congratulations
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: to Andy for pitching Operation Italy. Andy is now is
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: he a two time merging?
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: Three three three three?
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: Andy's sweeping tonight? Dude, Andy is sweeping tonight? So will
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: he get another chance? We have the making them Merge
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: MVP awards now chase this one. I had to explain
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: a little bit in the description of the post, and
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna explain it again for people today because MVP
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: does not mean who we think was the MVP of
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: survivor so to speak. But who do we find to
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: be the most valuable player to us?
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: Essentially, who brought the most entertainment value on the podcast?
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, like, who did we talk about who racked in
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: some great entertainment views for us on TikTok. Who did
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: we just find to be the most valuable player to
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: discuss and talk about? So we've got some We've got
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: some like controversial names in here that people were I
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: don't know how they felt about it. They didn't comment
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: a ton, but they did vote. So Chase. Those nominees
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: for the Making the Merge MVP awards are Kyle, Andy,
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: Sue and Rome Rome making it in again. You can't
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: argue with numbers, though, Rome brought us in some views,
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: So Chase, why don't you take it away with this?
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: And the winner is Andy again ever time Mergey Award winner.
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: Look, I mean this is bonu could only hope to
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: win this many hearts, that's really.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: I mean this was another absolute runaway win too. Fifty
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: of the votes, yeah.
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: Fifty percent, fifty one percent either way. Rome got the
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: least amount of votes. I think that's all that we
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: really need to know about this.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: You know, I thought it could you know, obviously, Andy,
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: extremely hilarious player, very entertaining player, if you know, just
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: from watching. If you just use our little, tiny kind
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: of survey as a measuring stick for what Survivor fans
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: really loved about this past season. Andy might be a
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: good pick to bring back for another season.
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: Straight up, You're right, Like I think that if you're
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: looking at how many awards he's gained the votes for
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: people love them some Andy dude loved it.
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: But I mean we had other really entertaining people in
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: that category. I mean, Sue so funny. I mean from
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: the dirt on her face the whole season.
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but how is she supposed to return for another
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: season if they all know her age? That's what I say.
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: Kyle Kyle got us a lot of views on TikTok
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: with his Kyle quotes of the week.
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: Yep, Kyle did great and Rome Rome toasted his chances
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: of ever returning. He just he really did.
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but there's no denying he got us a lot
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: of views because he did some crazy stuff.
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah he did, and at the most of the time
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: at the expensive Soul, so you know, it was it
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: was a rough time, but got us some TikTok views,
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: got us some new listeners, So we appreciate him for that.
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: Now that's uh.
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: Let me jump in real quick. Okay, that is four
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: Mergy Awards for Andy.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: Dad.
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: I believe PD has sent us a voice memo and
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: he has something to say.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: Oh oh uh oh.
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: I don't know if you guys will see this in
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: time for it to make the show.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: Uh, maybe you will, maybe you won't.
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: I just want to say that Andy winning all these awards,
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: you know, and running away with the vote, it's just
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: a sign that the trophy's coming home.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: Season eight, Trophy's coming home.
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna be the first three time champion. I'm already
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: the first two time champion. So I'm just gonna keep
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: pouring on the accolades in addition to having my players
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: sweep the Mergi Awards. I mean, it's all coming up
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: PD in season forty eight.
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: PD out.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Man, that's that's some big talk from PD.
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: It is a big some big talk for someone who
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: lost earlier than I did. You know, Yeah, dude, PD,
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: I will say he is the first and only two
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: time Yeah Survivor Draft Champion.
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: But here's I'm gonna say something very I'm gonna say
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: it while Kristen's not in the room.
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: Good.
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: I think Kristin has a good chance of being a
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: two time winner, and it makes me furious because she's
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: some She's got some sort of I don't know, some
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: sort of magic to picking some players that make it
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: a really long way.
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: She is really good at that. We talked about that.
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: Me and PD talked about that in the season recap,
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: the season draft recap episode from the other week. Man,
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: she's really good at picking players. And Jonathan, you really
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: suck it.
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: I really do. I do. I've tried. I've tried everything.
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: I've run the numbers, I've tried to eliminate feelings. I'm
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: trying everything that I can. I haven't decided what I'm
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: trying next season, but I think it's we'll see.
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: I think you should do some homework, man, I think
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: you need to go watch some old seasons.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: You know. I've done some. I've done some homework. I've
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: watched some old seasons, but I just haven't watched a
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: whole lot of them. But see, you say, watched the
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: old season. But clearly the game is changing. It is
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: the time is now, old man, We're moving forward. And
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: uh I'm also I called you old man, and I'm
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: older than you, you know, but it's okay, that's okay.
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: I give off an air of elderness.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you give off geezer.
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: I am your I am your superior, so I can understand.
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: This is unbelievable.
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: You know, I went, hey, I kind of fell back
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: into my villain.
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Wait a second. Wait, now that's a pretty good transition.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: Speaking of villains. I see what you're doing, and you
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: know what, in the uh, in the spirit of being
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: kind during the season of Mergy Awards, I'm gonna applaud
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: you for that. So good job on that. Because the
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: next award is the Villain Awards, Chase, why don't you
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: read off the Villain Award nominees.
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: Our nominees for the Villain Award, which is, of course
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: the villain of this season. Our nominees are Rome yep,
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: Rome h Rome okay, and Rome Wow.
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: Okay, drum roll. This one's a big one, Chase. The
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: winner is Rome Wow.
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: I ran away with it.
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: You notice the crowd did not applaud or cheer for
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: him when we announced he was a winner. That's because
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: the virtual crowd was not ready for it. Rome won
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: with one hundred percent of the votes. One hundred. Look,
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: there were one hundred votes, yep, every single one of
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: them was went to Rome. We did have a few
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: people that pointed out that we forgot to put Rome
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: in the running for it, so that's all bad. So
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: we'll also give him an honorable mention, But villain award goes.
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: To it's kind of to go to anyone else. They tried,
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: Like Sue was kind of a villain. She was getting
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: villain adjacent year, Yeah, villain adjacent.
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's kind of anti hero kind of thing, you know,
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: where you're like, sometimes good, sometimes bad. Who is she?
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: You know, a free agent?
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: Even if you take away what he did outside of
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: the game, which if you don't know, he potentially I
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: think it's an allegedly kind of thing spoiled the season.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: So from what I've gathered, he basically on some sort
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: of podcast started listing the names that seems just.
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: So happened to be in the exact order of the
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: next Yeah.
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's something weird like that.
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: But if you just look at in the game, just gameplay,
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: I think just the episode where he's harassing Saw the
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: whole time is guaranteed villain Hall of Famer.
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's he. Here's what sucks Chase is if he
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: had not done the boot list thing, he would have
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: been for the purposes.
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: Of clearly just te Yeah, he would have been brought back.
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: He would have been a good bringback for entertainment value.
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: But he is. He toasted it, He ruined it for himself.
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: But Chase, we've made it all the way through the
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: Mrgie Awards. Can you believe it? It's gone so fast?
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: The first annual Mergy Awards are over, Andy sweeping, absolutely demolishing.
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: Just with four award wins this season, Oh.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: My goodness, will we ever see a contestant take home
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: for Mergy Awards? Chase, I don't know.
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: And here's here's what's really cool. And this is, you know,
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: dropping the host facade for a second. One of the
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: things I'm very excited for as making the Merge continues
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: and grows and stuff is we're gaining lore.
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: We are gaining lore.
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: So imagine if Andy comes back for season fifty, dude,
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: and he wins another four Mergy.
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: Awards, oh my eight, eight total.
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: Mergy Awards, and people, you know, our listeners and us,
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: we could be like, can you believe Andy, He's got
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: the record for most Mergy Awards.
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: However, not only that, but it's like if he goes
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: on to another season, we'll be like, wait, that's the
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: four time Mergy Award winner returning for another Survivor season. Yeah,
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: there's this excitement that can be brought into it, and
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: we're cooking it up, we're making it. We're lower shifts. Yea.
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: Yes, Survivor has a lot of history over the past
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: twenty five years, but you know, we're kind of starting
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: our own Survivor history here. I mean, imagine four seasons
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: from now and we're talking about, yeah, the first ever
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: season of making the merge chase one.
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and and and then he never won another one.
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: You know that sounds about right? Can you imagine about
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: think about how cool that story would be though I
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: won the first ever season, Yeah, then I don't win
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: again for.
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: Like tens would, where it's like, oh man, he's just
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: he's been trying to climb all the way back up
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: to the top. Here's my thing. I've still I've still
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: yet to win, the only one of us. I'm a
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: zero time winner. I'm the only one. So I'm gonna
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: just say our fans should be rooting for me to
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: be to have an upset next.
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: They might be next season, man, it is they need.
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: To be who you who you draft? Look if we
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: if I have another pick like Genevieve. Then I could
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: I could really, I could really use a couple of
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: good picks like that.
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: I'm glad you brought up Genevieve because this is probably
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: the last thing we have to say about the Mergy Awards.
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: A lot of people pointed out Genevieve wasn't even nominated
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: for a single Mergy award.
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: That's just true. There were a lot of people that
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: were upset at some of our choices. I mean, for example, uh,
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: let's let's take a look here, because there was one
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: that I saw that I thought might have been a
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: good point and I just can't remember. Oh it was.
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: It was the who provided the most laughed Someone said Genevieve,
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: and I was like, I think you're wrong on that one. Yeah,
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: I don't remember laughing at all. But a lot of
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: people were saying that Kishan should have come back for
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: the Baby Come Back Award or the gone to soon,
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: Gone too Soon Award. So I saw Keishan's name dropped
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: and then twice in there, and Tijana once. So there
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: were some there were some differences, but hey, that's okay.
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: We're just there's always next season.
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: It was just our four nominations you know, we got
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: to nominate one person.
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: And yeah, and y'all don't have a microphone, you know, yes,
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: that's what I keep saying. You know, but what just
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: happened to us, Chase? What happened? We're making it happen about.
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: We're making the merge. Baby, He's gonna fix us. I
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: know it. He's gonna fix these two faroh cats. That's
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: what it is.
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: Well, guys, Rare, sorry, go ahead, go ahead.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: Were you about to end this episode? Because I was.
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna backhand you across the face if you end
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: up before we read this email, because we gotta. Yeah, look,
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: oh my goodness, this is what look. Merging awards are over,
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: the gloves are off, and now the claws are out rare.
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: You know, yeah, yeah, yeah, and we have something else
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: we need to do. So read the email.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: So we have an email, Chase. The subject line says,
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: a message from your number one Canadian fan, WHOA. This
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: is big for us because Canada was an early supporter
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: of the podcast, and I think we owe a lot
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: of it to Faith. Now you may think Faith, Wow, Jonathan,
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: that's super spiritual of you to say, no, I need
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: the name Faith. We've got a listener named Faith who
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: sent us a lovely email, and I'm going to I'm
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: going to kind of skim through it, but it's a
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: lot of beautiful details here. So Faith says, Hey, guys,
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: loving and enjoying every minute of the podcast. I've got
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: my brother, sister and parents on it as well. This
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: is a family situation change. Every year, since I was
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: about seven, I'm twenty one now, our family has watched
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: Survivor together. Similar to the draft, we each get to
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: choose one male one female as our team for the
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: season at the end of the second episode. That would
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: be an interesting twist to the show the season of
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: making the merge one year to make it like an
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: alternative thing. But each episode we watch our house pretty
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: much sounds like an episode of your podcast with the
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: same critiques and comments. It's been so fun to listen
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: to the episode after we watch to see how similar
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: our thoughts were to yours. Throughout the year, Survivor has
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: consumed my family. Many birthday parties were had, tribes were made,
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: buffs were given, puzzles, races were completed, idols hidden, and
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: of course, it wouldn't be Survivor without disgusting food. Challenges
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: my dad, the Jeff of the parties, Jeff of the.
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: Parties, that's what they called me.
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: And college dude, that's what I'm talking about. It took
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: a little too much joy and watch.
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: Out, dude, and Chase Chases the Jeff Probes of this
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: party doll, because he's way too old to be you.
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: Right now, I've been calling you the rom of the
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: parties behind your back.
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: Because because I spoil the order that I kicked people out.
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's it, that's the one. It's well, you keep
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: following me around too, And I'm like, is that Chase?
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: But uh so, she says. When COVID happened, our family
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: needed a boost. Uh need a little boost. So we
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: decided to play our own version of Survivor. Each night
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: at dinner or should I say tribal we would vote. However,
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: with only five of us, it wouldn't last very long,
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: so we've voted people off instead. We just took a
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: different approach. Some nights we would vote as to who
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: had to do dishes, or who would have to go
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: pick a movie, or who would not be able to
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: watch Just kidding, they didn't say that, who got to
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: go to the next dinner, et cetera. And so they
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: would do all of this and said, my dad began
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: to hide idols advantages around the house. Just one of
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: the things we did to stay busy during COVID. This year,
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: I took it one step further at Halloween and I
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: dressed as Jeff probsed. She also sent us a picture, Chase,
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: and I will send it your way. There there are
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: pictures galore of these tribals happening, challenges, happening, and Faith
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: dressed as Jeff Probs. It's a beautiful costume, perfectly executed.
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: But anyway, says your favorite Canadian fans, Faith and the
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: drink Walter family. Ps. Attached are some of the lovely photos.

• 34:26
  Speaker 1: it with white, drink Walter White, say drink.
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: Yep, they're telling people to make meth.
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: Nope, no one's saying that, especially Drink Walter family. This
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: seems very wholesome.
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: The drink water family.
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: We're gonna move on from this, That's what I'm gonna say.
• 34:39

  Speaker 2: That house sounds like a ton of fun. Facting idols
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: around and playing surviving.
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: They're doing more than us, Chase, the.
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: Way you guys are working harder, Yeah than we are. Yeah.
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: I'm like, don't whatever you do, don't start a family podcast,
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: Drink Walter family, you will tank us. And speaking of
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: tanking us, Chase like, yeah, like, look, we're gonna I'm
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: gonna try my best to explain this to you after
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: the podcast, So please stay behind after class. Okay, here's
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: the thing, Chase, if they started a podcast, they'd probably
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: soar past us and reviews.
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure.
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: And that's what we're trying to accomplish. We're trying to
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: soar past everybody else into the reviews right right, right right.
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: So here's the problem we're having. We need more reviews.
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: We need twelve more reviews, twelve more reviews. This is
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: a message straight from PD to your ears via Chase
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: and Jonathan. Who would have thought we would have teamed
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: up to move on a message with the PD, But
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: we need twelve more reviews.
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we're like, we're like Jehovah's witnesses.
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, is that what? I don't know? Does that work?
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: PD gave us a message? Oh and so we're going
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: door to door and we're asking for more reviews.
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: Because two cats out here fighting.
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: We are. We are only twelve reviews away from passing
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: the amount of reviews that former survivor contestants Carolyn and.
• 36:26
  Speaker 4: To your Gabe right now, Chase, it's on you, why
• 36:31
  Speaker 4: Carson Carson Carolyn and Carson's podcast, So help us pass
• 36:35
  Speaker 4: them in reviews, guys, not not like there's any competition.
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: I'm sure the show is great. Yeah, we're just you know.
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we're sure it's great. If you don't like listening
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: to good survivor podcasts, I'm gonna say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: so we're maybe we'll start some beef here.
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: I'll just put it this way. The Drink Water Family
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: was not emailing Carolyn and Carson.
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: That's true. They really were. And it's also drink Walter.
• 36:57

• 36:59
  Speaker 1: get you there. So guys, please leave us a review.
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: We're gonna we're gonna pass them twelve more reviews. It's
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: like a fundraiser, That's what I feel like. I'm on
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: like a pledge drive for PBS is like we just
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: need twelve more callers to call and then we will
• 37:15
