• 1:20
  Speaker 3: the first ever Mergy Awards. Everybody, the Dundees. Oh, Kristen,
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: not the Dundees. This is way more prestigious than the Dundees.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, why'd you say it with an Australian accent like crocodile?
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: But it reminded me?
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess so maybe anyway, you referenced the office
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: and then you thought that that reminds me of Crocodile Dundee.
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: It's just a lot going on in my head today.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know, It's just I've never been more
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: surprised by Krista doing an Australian accent of any sort
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: than's just now on a podcast. But anyway, Yeah, the
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: first annual Mergie Awards.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: It's gonna be exciting.
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: I do.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: I kind of wish that Chase is here to bully us.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: I do too.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm relieved, and I'm also sad because I
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: will say, I feel like I'm the I'm just the
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: target for Chase's anger. If there was a most Angry
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: Host award, I'd be giving it right to him, and
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: then most Bullied Host would go straight to me.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: Uh so it would. I mean, it was just me
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: and Chase last week and we were talking up Kristin
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: and how great Kristen's been and then Chase is like, man,
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: Jonathan sucks at drafting players.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Dude, I was milliseconds. I recorded a I've recorded a
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: video to put on the stories on TikTok and Instagram
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: ranting about you guys. I recorded the video. I'll send
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: it to you. But I recorded it fresh out of
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: the shower. I had soaking hair, and it was just like, hey,
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: what's the deal? You know?
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: So it was I thought it was like a little
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: too unhinged to post.
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so that's what you were thinking about in the shower,
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: was how upset you were chasing.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: To it while I was in So I'm just in
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: the shower, no clothes, soaking wet, and uh, you know,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: I'm getting bullied relentlessly via audio wild trying to take
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: a shower. So it'd be like I'm washing my hair
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, I'd be like what you know,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: like just scream from the bathroom.
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: Well, what did you think, Kristen? Were we accurate or not?
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: I mean, it's true, and I see the methods, so
• 3:27
  Speaker 5: I understand why he sucks.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Were the method an this is?
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: I mean, I can't reveal the secrets of how Jonathan
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: picks his players.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: But it's just it's I revealed the secret of how
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: I take my place. I used math, I tried to
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: figure out statistics, and uh, it led me to say Genevieve.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: But anyway, yep, anyway.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Look, I just can't. I can't. I can't
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: do this anymore. But it does cushion it a little
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: bit that Chase is not here to be mean to me.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: And without further ado, PD, Kristen, Chase, who's with us
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: in spirit and and our baby. Thanks Kristin. We we
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: are diving into the Mergy Awards for the first time.
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: So oh, actually I do have to cut you off
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: because Chase has texted me all of his award picks.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Oh perfect, see shows Okay, I'm gonna talk about this.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: This shows the disrespect that's evident in this whole dynamic
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: because I texted the group and said, hey, Chase, if
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: you want to text me your picks for the awards,
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: feel free, and he chose to text you instead. This
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: is unbelievable. All right, all right, PD, is this in
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: any particular order top to bottom? One?
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: I think you can just do whatever you want.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: All right, I'm gonna I'm gonna start down at the bottom.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: All right, Game Changer Award. This is gonna be for
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: best move of the season. It can be a general
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: plan if it's multiple players involved, or it can be
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: kind of one player plan, you know. Just we're not
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: taking it very seriously. So p D, why don't you,
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: why don't you start us out? Give us your pick?
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: All right? My pick is Rachel's funeral where she got
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: the jury to make the case for her about how
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: awesome she is and how she's got to go home,
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: and then she's like, psych, I'm gonna I'm not going anywhere.
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: This is the greatest funeral ever.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Wow. That that was gonna be my pick.
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: P D, Well, you let me go first. I had
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: to pick the obviously one would.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Have gone first because I thought that was good. Tell
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: you what, I'll go, I'll go second, so that Kristen.
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: I'll go very last. How about that?
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: Okay, Chris you go, you go second, and I'll scramble
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: for the third pickievable.
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: Then if my pick is bad, it'll I can blame
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: it on being list.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: Okay, I'm going with I'm going with Operation Italy as
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: as a a game Changer Award. So I'm gonna accredit
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: it to Andy though specifically because he was the one
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: who at the sanctuary went to the others and said,
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: we need to do something. Here's what I think we
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: need to do, and pretty much formulated this idea from
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: a starting point. So that's my nomination is Operation Italy.
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's a great one because she woke up
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: after having Italian food that night and he's like, I
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: woke up with a plan, let's change the game.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: It was very it was like it was like he
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: had a revelation during the middle of the night, like
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: I don't like a dream. Maybe it was inspired in
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: some way, but either way, I think that one is
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: gonna give Rachel a run for her money. Even though
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: that was a great move that you listened now, Kristen,
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: let's hear your third pick.
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: Well, see, I don't know if this is.
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: Really a game changing move for the person, like because
• 7:02
  Speaker 5: because this person was no longer in the game. But
• 7:04
  Speaker 5: I loved when Saul gave the advantage to Rachel.
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I think that's a great pick.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: That's a great pick, Kristin. I didn't even think about that.
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: Move because he was no longer in the game. He
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: was already on the jury, but well he.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: Was in the game when he gave it to her,
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: but he he was, but then he was voted out.
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: And I think it definitely that that move changed the
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: entire game. So it fits in.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: The the Wow Kristin here, I thought that was going
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: to be a weak.
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: Submission Kristin from the top rope.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: Wow. So Chase, uh, Chase has sent us his ghostly
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: you know, non presence. So why don't you go ahead
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: and tell us what his pick was?
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: His nomination is when Gabe got everyone to give up
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: their shot in the dark and exchange for Rice. He
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: said that that heavily changed the game and prevented any
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: wild rescues. So yeah, wow, good nomination from Chase.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: All right. Next up, sorry child is making noise? All right?
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Next up, after the Game Changeer Award, we have the
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: Big Mistake Award. You know, we've seen what it looks
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: like to have a good move. Now what do we
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: think the biggest mistake in the season is, Kristen, do
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: you want to go first or do you went last?
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: Last time?
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: I'm trying to be polite, you know, I kind of
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: want to hear chases.
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: All Right, we're gonna let the ghost Chase go first.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: This is unbelievable. He still wins in talking.
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: All right, So for the Q slash the Big Mistake Award,
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: this is the Q award. Chase said the biggest mistake
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: of the season was keeping Andy the first week. If
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: he hadn't been to the game, it would have fit
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: completely different.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: Okay, so keeping Andy from Chase?
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: Do we need to find out who specifically kept Andy?
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: Would that be Sam?
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: I think it was a collective, like, I mean, everyone
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: actively chose to keep Andy.
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but didn't Sam kind of lead the charge off?
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: I think so that sounds right. I can't remember, but
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: I would say so.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: We couldn't just put up a graphic that has Chase's
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: nomination but it's a picture of Sam.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's just I think it was Sam. Maybe
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: attribute it to him. I am tell you what, I'm
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: gonna take the next pick PD because I figured if
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: there's one nomination for keeping Andy, I think I'm gonna
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: pin a nomination on Andy, which is I think the
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: big mistake was when he went to Genevieve towards the
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: end of the season and was immediately just like, hey,
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: when you're on the jury, make sure that you vote
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: for me to win. And it was, wasn't it. It
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: was a big mistake.
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: That's a good one. Yeah, Andy digging his grave in
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: that canoe? Or what wasn't in a canoe? What was
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: that a hammock? I was thinking of a hammock, not
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: a canoe.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: Some say hammock. So the canoes of trees.
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: Hey, their canoes on Survivor it happens.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, sure, I will let you have it, but I
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: will say the biggest mistake, uh, to me was watching
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: Andy just dig his grave and get super arrogant after
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: one successful move. So that's my big mistake. Submission PD.
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: Mine is that Caroline would not let Sue play her
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: idol for her on the Operation Italy Night. So Caroline
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: made a big mistake.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: I forgot about that. I forgot about that. That was
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: a terrible mistake on Caroline.
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: Sue wanted to play it for her so bad too.
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: She was like practically begging.
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah Sue, Yeah, and did Sue.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Ever, she never even used it right, She used it
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: the last vote and like looked at the jury and
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: was like, right, guys, look at me, all right, Kristen.
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: My big mistake nomination is when the Lavo tribe let
• 11:22
  Speaker 5: roam man this.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that feels so long ago.
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but that's a great one.
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's hilarious. I can't believe we forgot about that.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: All right, So excellent picks.
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: Not a single piece of that puzzle was completed.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: I feel like I feel like all four of those
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: are solid contenders for Big Mistake Award. All right, now,
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: let's let's move on to let's move on to the
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: Baby Come Back Award. Okay, yeah, this is this is
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: who we want to see return as a contestant. P D.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: Why don't you take this one first?
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: All right? I mean I think you know who I'm
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: gonna pick. I want Andy back on Survivor. I want
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: him to thrust in an All Stars season. I want
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: him to be doing challenges next to Boston Rob.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: What a what a weird thing to witness on television,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: to see Boston Rob or Massachusetts Robert as.
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: We called him.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, right beside Andy, that would be really odd.
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: Make it happen, would be fun.
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: It can make it happen, Jeff, I'm sure he listens, right, Kristen,
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: what would your pick be for the Baby Come Back Award?
• 12:45
  Speaker 5: Oh?
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: Goodness, let's see here.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: You didn't pick yet.
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: There's like a small part of.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: Oh, don't say Kristen is the villain of this of
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: this podcast. If she said that is what I think
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: she's gonna say.
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: There's just a small part of me that wants Rome to.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: Come No, no way.
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: But you know what he did, right, I did?
• 13:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 13:11
  Speaker 5: I told Jonathan, I was like, he just ruined his
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: shot to come back on Yeah, which is a bummer.
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: For the rest of us.
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: So despite that, there's still a small part of you
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: that wants more Rome on Survivor.
• 13:23
  Speaker 5: I just love like the trouble he stirs up and
• 13:25
  Speaker 5: Howard it was that like he continued on so.
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: Far despite like everything, he just kept doing.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: I mean, I kind of get it, because first of all,
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: we need our tiktoks and reels to keep getting views.
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: Puts us in a tough spot because Kristen is nominating him.
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: Therefore he will have to be in a graphic and
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: it will say that making the merge has nominated Rome.
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: You know who should come back.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: Hey, the heat is gonna be off of you being
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: a sexist pet.
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, what if we put in parentheses like Christen made
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: this pick the other people making the merge, do not agree.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: Please please, we have to We have to do that.
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: That's the only way I'll let this stand is if
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: we explicitly say Kristin did it, if.
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: He had not done what he did, if he had.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: Not spoiled, if he was blameless, then he could return. Guys,
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: I don't know how either of y'all didn't pick Saul,
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: because that's exactly who I'm saying i'd want back in
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: another season.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: And that is also Chase's pick.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: That's because Chase and I, even though we fight like
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: an old married couple, sometimes we agree like an old
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: married couple.
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: So I'm reading this from Chase. He said in all caps,
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: Saul Nation, Rise up, back up, pick Andy. So you
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: took his first pick and I took his second pick,
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: So why don't you give us an alternate? Jonathan?
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: Okay, so an alternate? You know what, I'm gonna throw
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: this one to John because I felt like John would
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: go on and uh, you know he I was interested
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: to see him play because he categories no, no, no, no, no,
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not moving on. It's possible for people
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: to get more than one pick, for you know, an award.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: You know, multiple awards can be won by a person.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: But I was looking forward to seeing John in Tribals
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: as a speech writer to see what he would do.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: But I just I felt like he didn't get to
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: So you know what, let's let's throw John in there.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: I'd like to see him come back.
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: I'm shocked that you picked John over Genevieve.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: Genevieve, if this makes sense, I feel like we got
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: to see her game, and yeah, but she had I
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: do feel like Genevieve, we saw what we needed to
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: and it wasn't that she was a bad player. But
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: I will say that it wasn't she wasn't necessarily very interesting.
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: So where one might pick Rome or or pick Andy,
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: it's because of the chaos and because of like it
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: making the show significantly more interesting. And so.
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: Again, yeah, like we couldn't believe it the first time
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: she picked Rome and then picking him for this award.
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: My little agent of chaos is what I call her. Yeah,
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: I'm putting Kristin in counseling. Is what's happening after this?
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: The nominees it was soul, Andy, Rome and John love it.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah and John love it. So now we're bringing it
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: full circle, PD, And by full circle, I'm not even
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: sure that that saying works here, But basically, we just
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: went from people that we want to come back to
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: people that we hate or that we don't like. So
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: we're moving on to the most Hated award PD. My
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: submission right away is going to be Rome.
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: And that's a good one. And to piggyback off that,
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: I mean, I am going to switch it up a
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: little bit because you know, you picked Rome and I
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: am gonna also pick Rome. Rome is my pick for
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: most hated. Yeah, what do you think, Kristin, I guess who.
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: Is the I want you to think about this reasoning? Yeah,
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: I need you to not I need you to do everything.
• 17:25
  Speaker 5: That's the most reasonable person to hate would be Rome.
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: Well not to hate, Like, we're not challenging people, but
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: we're saying, every everyone, load up in the van, we're
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: off to hate Rome. It's we're saying he was the
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: most hated player for sure.
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 17:41
  Speaker 5: I nominated Rome. He was definitely the most hated and
• 17:44
  Speaker 5: he probably deserved it.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah what did Chase say?
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we've got the nomination from Chase and for most hated,
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: Chase chose Rome. Oh okay, so it's gonna be a
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: tight race.
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: Besides Rome, you know who else could be?
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: So yeah, he's he's an authentic villain. So I think
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: it was I think that that makes Mony Kristen. Let's
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: not go there. We're trying to have a good evening
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: at the house tonight. Okay, So let's move on to
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: funniest Castaway? Pete, why don't we start off with Chase's
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: pick since he hasn't led the charge at all, it seems.
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: So Chase's pick is Andy, and it's pretty obvious why
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: he would pick Andy for Funniest Castaways because of his
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: challenge performance or lack thereof. Throughout the whole season. There
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: was also a really funny moment where John he went
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: up to John love It and he just goes, I'm
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: by and then John's like, cool, I'm gay.
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: I forgot all about that.
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: It was ancient history. I think that was the first episode.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: All right, So, Pete, who do you think is the
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: funniest Castaway?
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: Mine's gonna go to Sue. We got so much intention unintentionally,
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: very much unintentionally. I feel like the dirty face stuff unintentional.
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: There was one intentional thing. It wasn't intentionally funny, but
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: she intentionally lied about her age, which ended up being
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: pretty funny, like when you know, Kyle called her a
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: badass grandma and then yep, she's like, you know what,
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: Actually I'm not I'm gen x brom, I'm forty five.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: I'm just one of the kids, is what she was
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: kind of implying. Yeah, she was funny to watch the
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: dirty face situation, just a lot of questions there.
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: I defended her in the lowest viewed video we have
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: ever put out on TikTok. I was nice to Sue
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: one time and nobody watched it.
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: And nobody cared.
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: Then you were mean to her one time? And what
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: were the results of that? People?
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: Four hundred thousand views.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: I believe I'm gonna submits.
• 20:01
  Speaker 5: Kyle, Kyle, that would be mine on in I figured
• 20:08
  Speaker 5: I would let Jonathan have to pick a fourth. I
• 20:10
  Speaker 5: was actually gonna say, I think I'm just.
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: I'm submitting John Love it for go ahead, Christen. She
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: took she took Kyle from me.
• 20:26
  Speaker 5: Well, I knew that if you went before me, you
• 20:29
  Speaker 5: were going to choose Kyle.
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: He started to actually say it scramble.
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, okay, So for me, the funniest What in
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: the world am I gonna say? I mean, I think
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: that there were some responses from Saul where his responses
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: to Andy and then when he would go and he
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: would like talk to Kyle or he would talk to
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: someone else about his experience with Andy. There were some
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: really funny moments there where he was like in his
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: first tration, kind of laughing through it. So you know
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: what we'll throw on. We'll throw another one to our boy.
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: So since Chrystal will let me say, Kyle, I don't
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: think that's a bad one.
• 21:09
  Speaker 5: I also loved like Saul's like interactions with Rome, That's
• 21:16
  Speaker 5: what I mean. Yeah, just and his interaction with suegnizing
• 21:21
  Speaker 5: him endlessly.
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: See, maybe maybe I got a sleeper win the nomination.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: The burping. The burping was also very fun. So uh, anyway,
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: Saul gets my nomination for Funnies Castaway. Now I'm going
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: to be moving to Quote of the Year p D.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: I feel like you're going to be a machine with
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: this one, because you we've established you take detailed notes.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: You are with the two other people on this podcast
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: that take the least amount of so we're we are
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: scrambling and doing our best so why don't you lead us?
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean my quote it's not detailed at all.
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: It's one word and it's word. Yeah, it's from the
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: guy that was just nominated previously for the Funniest Saul
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: when he said, oh, fart.
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I hate to break to you. That's two words.
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: But you know, I mean if you look at the captions,
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: I think it just sets fart on it. So I'm
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: gonna go, yep, fart by Saul is is that like
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: a perfume for like a fart by soul?
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: Ah, fart by Saults. I'm gonna I'm gonna throw it
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: to a to Kyleile Kyle. Kyle had many good quotes,
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: but I think there was one recurring statement that he
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: kept using, which was give it a buck twenty, you know.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: And I think that I'm gonna do a sweeping buck
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: twenty submission where I say that Kyle should take.
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: It with that, okay, and we can just pick one
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: when we put the post up.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but I mean, yeah, like the mine I think
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: would be his closing Buck twenty statement about family and
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: all that. It was just it was a beautiful quote.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: It was more of a monologue than anything. But uh,
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: I liked it. Yeah, I felt I felt like it
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: was more eloquent than a fart.
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: But one of them is much funny. Yeah.
• 23:24
  Speaker 5: So, as Jonathan said, I'm not the most detailed note
• 23:30
  Speaker 5: taker of Survivor, so I'm not gonna lie. I went
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: back and I looked at some of our Kyle quotes. Wow,
• 23:39
  Speaker 5: And and the one that tickled me was and now
• 23:45
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna have to preface because for all my friends
• 23:47
  Speaker 5: and family, they know that I don't really cuss, but
• 23:49
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna say it because it was the quote. But
• 23:52
  Speaker 5: when he said I'm the most honest dumbass out here.
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: That was funny.
• 23:56
  Speaker 4: It just got I just it just made me laugh.
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: It was funny.
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: Did he say that in response to his beef with Rome?
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: Yes? Yes, I think so.
• 24:06
  Speaker 5: I was trying to figure out the context, and I
• 24:09
  Speaker 5: know it was in response to something with Rome.
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was he just said so much. That was good.
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: Like Kyle, we could pretty much do an award for like,
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: which Kyle quote do you think was the best?
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and nominate four different Kyle quotes. Yeah, because there
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: was that one where he said, like we got all
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: these people trying to fact check on this twisted conundrum
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: we've created on a beach. Yeah, that's a fantastic quote too. Man,
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: maybe the nomination should just be everything Kyle said.
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe maybe it could be. I don't know, what
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: do you think, Kristen? Do we do we combine forces
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: and just say every Kyle quote was the best?
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: Sure?
• 24:53
  Speaker 4: Whatever?
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: Interesting? Yeah, now I'm interested. Yeah. What did Chase say?
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: Another Kyle quote?
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: Chasing?
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he said there's only one mbre with immunity tonight
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: and that he is me.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: Oh man, oh dang, okay, I kind of want to
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: leave them separate.
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: What if we just.
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: Is now christ is far away again?
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: The four Kyle quotes?
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: Mm hmm, well no, no, no, I think no, no, no,
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: I say we keep all of them.
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, three Kyle quotes and fart next to it would
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: be pretty good.
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: Who wins?
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: There is that Rachel quote that might be deserving of
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: being nominated. That was about the funeral, but like the
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: best part of.
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, of the best part of.
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: Being at your funeral.
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I love that. We don't remember it, but it's
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: knowing you're gonna wake up that that's what.
• 25:56
  Speaker 4: We were quote but it wasn't really funny, but it
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: was just are we doing a funny quote?
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: It's just quote of the Year, does it.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: Say funny quote? And the worst reading Comprehension award goes
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: to Christen So yeah, I think, uh, I think we
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: leave these four. I really do. I want to see
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: which of the chyld quotes gets more votes. Anyway, even
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: if I fart one, you know, tell you what you.
• 26:24
  Speaker 4: Know, Rachel I already won everything since she'll be okay, no, no.
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: No, heard this one.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: Her quote is good enough, and I don't remember the
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: entire buck twenty monologue. So I'm just gonna swap mine
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: out to go to Rachel's gueral quote because that needs
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: to be that texted.
• 26:43
  Speaker 5: PD before we started this, man like, hey, give me
• 26:46
  Speaker 5: a quote because I don't have one. Actually, y'all don't know,
• 26:49
  Speaker 5: but PD, he just actually organized this whole thing and
• 26:52
  Speaker 5: told us what to say.
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, thanks Pet.
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I wrote a script and they're horrible at sticking
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: to it.
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: It's more checking on the baby than I thought it would. Yeah, grounded, Yeah,
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: try to keep it grounded. Okay, well, p D, Kris, just.
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: A reminder, what if what if we say everything that
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: just got nominated? Because I don't even remember, so it
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: was the Rachel funeral quote, and then fart and then
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: there's only one ombre with immunity tonight and that he
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: is me? And then what was Kristen's.
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: The smartest?
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, yeah, smartest dumb ass? All right? And those
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: are the four.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: Those are the four of them. Okay, Yes, I feel
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: good about this.
• 27:37
  Speaker 5: Makes me laugh about that is? It sounds like something
• 27:39
  Speaker 5: Michael Scott would say.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: It does.
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: It's very the most honest dumbass that was it?
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, yeah, that's fun. I said the smartest I
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: swapped down, all right. Moving on with all of these
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: beautiful quotes. There were a lot of people who didn't
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: get to do many quotes because they were gone to soon.
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: So we're gonna be doing the gone too Soon award.
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: I am leading this one. I feel like I've been
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: generous with letting y'all get these. First pick. John Lovett
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: was gone, John love It gone too soon. I wanted
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: to see him absolutely approach some of the tribals. He
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: did not get to because Andy had a weird breakdown
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: and then everyone pitied him and kept him, which we've
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: already established was the big mistake. So John love It
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: is my submission for gone too soon.
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: That's a good one.
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that was a good one.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: I was going to pick him to Wow Christmas.
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: That's definitely who I would have picked if I was first.
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, wow, but you weren't, so p D. Who's your
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: pick for Godess?
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: And Chase took the other one that I would have taken?
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: I better know. Yeah, let's hit Chase.
• 28:55
  Speaker 4: So y'all have to start scrambling.
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: Chase picked Asia, Yeah, he said she Yeah, she would
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: have been a dominating force all season, but she got
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: taken out third really unexpected.
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: Dang.
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: I agree, because Teeney and Kashawn are idiots, like I've
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: said before, and and Asha should have been there all along.
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: All right anyway, Yeah, okay, okay, p D. We'll give
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: Kristen a little extra time to.
• 29:28
  Speaker 4: But I have a third option.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: Okay, okay, Kristin, who do you think was gone too soon?
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: I was going to say, I think t K has
• 29:35
  Speaker 4: gone too soon? He was?
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: Now who am I going to pick?
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: Man?
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: He was too fast for the game, Kristen.
• 29:44
  Speaker 5: Okay, I know challenged beast, and I understand why they
• 29:47
  Speaker 5: got him out quick, but you know, I think he
• 29:50
  Speaker 5: could have been more valuable.
• 29:53
  Speaker 4: For for the team longer on. I don't know what
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: I'm trying to say, but.
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: I could have done good and things. What you're trying
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: to say?
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, and we've already discussed the fact that a
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: lot of strong players were sent home very very early.
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: So everyone that we're mentioning right now kind of seemed
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: like they would be a strong player. So p D,
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: why don't you dig to the bottom of the barrel
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: for who's gone?
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: All right? You know, there's there's part of me that
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: once I'm just kidding. I'm not picking Rome, dude, couldn't
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: do that. I'm gonna pick Anka because she was another Yeah,
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: she was a victim of Andy being there, like a
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: lot of people were. And just the look of shock
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: and discussed on her face when when she realized that
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: they were keeping Andy over her and it was justified too.
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: I feel like, you know, she had to have felt horrible.
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: I'm blank, I'm blanking on who Honka is right now? Yeah?
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but John, this is why you suck. This is
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: why you lost the draft is because you don't even
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: you already forgot her.
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: I don't remember Anka.
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: I just heard Chase in my head being like Jonathan,
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: you suck.
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: So I had to say, well, someone someone had to
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: do it, you know, someone had to keep the quota
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: alive of making me feel bad about myself on the podcast.
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: But uh, I don't know. Anica doesn't seem like she
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: was gone too soon. I didn't, sir.
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: Wow, thanks for just you know, crapping on my pick.
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: Look, I want to win something this sea. I want something.
• 31:38
  Speaker 3: I mean, Honica is fine. I mean she she was
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: good at puzzles.
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: She's just that's your argument.
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, she was good at puzzles. She was vib Yeah,
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: mid players end up.
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: Pretty. She made a TikTok with Sam lip syncing a
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: Gracie Abrams song and that was good.
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: So well, you know what, give her the win? PD?
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Oh man, how everybody vote for Anka to the
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: rest and everybody votes for Anica just to spite me,
• 32:11

• 32:40
  Speaker 1: to take this one first.

• 32:58
  Speaker 1: So much brand alive. You know, you could have just
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: it would have been the branding choice.
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and us hating on you for the room stuff.
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: That's just a consequence of your decision.
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Kristin, that's that's on you. Yeah, which I'm submitting Rome.
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: Are you actually nominating Rome?
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: I actually abominating Robe on behalf of our TikTok algorithm
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: and providing entertainment. The man is a straight up villain
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: and he really did bring a lot of conversation to
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: the podcast. I mean, we're still talking about him with
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: the same amount of fervor as thirteen weeks ago. So
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: I just I think he would be an MVP for
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: entertainment value. So there we go.
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely, because we kind of tracked the podcast doing
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: well to those clips we made of Rome.
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and yeah.
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: The argument for Andy is that we got to two
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: million views off of Andy's first thrusting incident, so yeah,
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: I think they both have.
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: A shadow band for his second thrust. Yeah, so you
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: just never know. P D. Who do you consider the
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: MVP of the making Merge Awards?

  Speaker 3: All right, and Chase didn't do one, so I guess
• 34:19
  Speaker 3: somebody gets a second pick. But like we said, there
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: are four obvious ones. So the next one is Kyle
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: because Kyle came out of nowhere and gave us those
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: awesome quotes every week and yeah, he's just a good dude.
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: Buck twenty go Kyle.

• 35:00
  Speaker 1: I mean, Chase owes his entire win to Saw making
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: a good move that was like just like he gave
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: an advantage.
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: But yeah, he did that in the game, but he
• 35:11
  Speaker 3: didn't do that on our TikTok, that's true.

• 37:46
  Speaker 1: One word, Oh my goodness, but it is Jeff Brooks.
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I had a thought and then I was like, oh, no,
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: I sound like Jeff is speak it boy. The other
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: day I was like, all right, So Survivor is like
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: its own multiverse, and every time you start a new season,
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: it's like you're entering an alternate universe and you get
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: to the middle of it and you're like, I don't
• 38:13
  Speaker 3: want to leave. But that's just how Survivor works. That's
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: the beauty of the game. I love dogs.
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: It wasn't convincing me until the dogs statement. I do
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: feel like this is a different topic, but I'm just
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: gonna hit it briefly. I feel like I have these
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: moments where when I start a new season of Survivor,
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: I'm like, this just isn't the same as last season.
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: I always have it, and then I get fully invested
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: after like two episodes. But like the first episode, it's
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: like I'm looking at a bunch of strangers and I
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: have to grow a new attachment to them.
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I get that. I remember like after forty six
• 38:52
  Speaker 3: ended and those insane characters, it's like, oh, Survivor's gonna
• 38:55
  Speaker 3: be normal again. But yeah, this was a great season.
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: It was a great season. But we're going to see
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: who has the greatest in these categories for the season.
• 39:04
  Speaker 3: All right, let's play a game. This game is how
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: much do you think this Survivor contestant is charging on cameo?
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: Because there's a lot of people from forty seven.
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: They all hopped on the train.
• 39:19
  Speaker 5: Okay, So so for context, like what is the average
• 39:22
  Speaker 5: cost of a cameo?
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: Well, p D you and I we we bought a
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: cameo of Q for.
• 39:29
  Speaker 3: Chase last season and that was around thirty five dollars
• 39:33
  Speaker 3: I think it was.
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: It was fifty bucks. I put twenty five bucks in
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: on it.
• 39:38
  Speaker 3: Okay, so fifty bucks for Q that is all you
• 39:41
  Speaker 3: have to go off of for this game.
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, Kristin, that's all I have to go off
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: for for this game. Because I all have a cameo.
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: It's a reference, So that's that is. I'm like, it's
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: this more or less than Q?
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah? All right, so how much?
• 39:55
  Speaker 5: And then you guys, you guys, the listeners, y'all right,
• 39:59
  Speaker 5: what you think is re So when we start making cameo,
• 40:03
  Speaker 5: we know how much we can charge.
• 40:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, great, idea, All right, how much do you think
• 40:07
  Speaker 3: Sam is charging.
• 40:10
  Speaker 4: Sam is gonna charge thirty dollars.
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: Sam's gonna charge eighty dollars.
• 40:19
  Speaker 3: So Kristen says thirty. Jonathan says eighty. Sam is charging
• 40:23
  Speaker 3: forty dollars.
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: Oh oh, okay, I said eighty because I thought he
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: would think too highly of himself.
• 40:30
  Speaker 4: I thought he would see it seem like a reasonable person.
• 40:33
  Speaker 4: That's why I picked.
• 40:34
  Speaker 3: Okay, So Kristen wins that round. All right, Next up, Rome,
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: how much do you think Rome is charging?
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: Oh man, this could definitely.
• 40:44
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna say seventy five dollars.
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: I'm going to I'm gonna hit I'm gonna hit it
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: with eighty again.
• 40:51
  Speaker 3: All Right, you guys are gonna be shocked to know
• 40:53
  Speaker 3: that Rome is charging twenty nine dollars on cameo.
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: Nine dollars. That's less than thirty. What a steal.
• 41:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah. And there's one contestant, the one right next to
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: him on the profiles, who is charging thirty?
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: What?
• 41:07
  Speaker 3: And that's teeny.
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: Teeny charging thirty? Teeny's got a good value. I feel
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: like teeny could charge more than thirty.
• 41:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, teeny, you are worth a lot more than one
• 41:17
  Speaker 3: dollar more than Rome.
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you gotta at least charge forty, Like, you can't
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: be neighboring him that in that rate. Who else we
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: got on there?
• 41:30
  Speaker 3: Next up? How much do you think Rachel is charging?
• 41:33
  Speaker 5: Dang, Well, she's the winner, but she's also a very humble, reasonable.
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: Person and she doesn't need the money. Let's be let's
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: be real.
• 41:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah, say twenty dollars.

  Speaker 3: Jonathan's closer in this one. Rachel's charging seventy five dollars.
• 41:52
  Speaker 4: Dangel, this is a surprise.
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: That's a reasonable price for a survivor. Champion did win.
• 41:57
  Speaker 3: But yeah, so this is the last bit, So I
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: want you guys to guess this is the most expensive one.
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: It's ten dollars more than Rachel. Who do you think
• 42:08
