- 0:41Speaker 3: Survivor is back, Baby.
- 0:44Speaker 2: I've been dying to say that.
- 0:46Speaker 5: How we're doing baby, that's how you do it on
- 0:49Speaker 5: a premiere. I guess what's going okay? Well, for the
- 0:56Speaker 5: first episode, there was a lot of sad stuff. I
- 0:59Speaker 5: mean the beginning of the episode, it was like really sad?
- 1:03Speaker 5: You know, No, I don't think so.
- 1:05Speaker 2: I mean it was sad. Are you just going through something?
- 1:08Speaker 5: Oh?
- 1:08Speaker 2: Wait?
- 1:08Speaker 6: I might have been watching the wrong live feed because
- 1:11Speaker 6: in my version when the Survivor episode started, it was
- 1:14Speaker 6: like an in memoriam section of all past players?
- 1:19Speaker 2: What was that? Just my feet? Are you no? Like
- 1:25Speaker 2: for real? Like what?
- 1:26Speaker 6: I I was watching it on Paramount what I guess
- 1:29Speaker 6: we can get into this now. But I thought that
- 1:31Speaker 6: the intro was really great.
- 1:32Speaker 2: You know they do that.
- 1:34Speaker 6: They did a thing where they showed like the people
- 1:37Speaker 6: that are going to be on this season finding out.
- 1:40Speaker 2: Yeah what is I saw that too.
- 1:42Speaker 6: But before that on Paramount Plus I was watching live,
- 1:45Speaker 6: they did like a quick in memorial of past Oh
- 1:47Speaker 6: for real.
- 1:48Speaker 2: They did not do that on Seats I. I just
- 1:50Speaker 2: had to watch the horrible local news hit me too.
- 1:52Speaker 6: Well, I've watched the news too, but then it was
- 1:54Speaker 6: like a commercial break and then that little section it
- 1:56Speaker 6: was like thirty seconds.
- 1:58Speaker 2: Wow. I came back like hyped. I was like, Survivors,
- 2:02Speaker 2: did I did I kill the moon Chase? Maybe I
- 2:04Speaker 2: dreamt that? Maybe I made that up.
- 2:06Speaker 6: You you said something about Rudy last night in the chat, yeah,
- 2:12Speaker 6: and I was like, why does he bring up.
- 2:13Speaker 2: Rudy right now? And that would all make sense.
- 2:16Speaker 7: Here's what we found Here's what we found out last
- 2:18Speaker 7: night in our Patreon by the way, you could join
- 2:20Speaker 7: us in chat. We found out a couple of things.
- 2:22Speaker 7: One Chase apparently just dreams of Rudy, and two the
- 2:29Speaker 7: Canadian feed is ahead of the US feed.
- 2:31Speaker 2: That's what we found. Good yeah, by like a good minute. Yeah.
- 2:35Speaker 7: There were times when our Canadian patron was just saying stuff,
- 2:40Speaker 7: and I didn't know what they.
- 2:41Speaker 2: Meant until like a minute later. I was like, oh,
- 2:45Speaker 2: that's good. At first, I was like, is he making
- 2:47Speaker 2: this up? Nope, didn't didn't make a single thing up.
- 2:52Speaker 2: Tutter total right. Well, I'm making the merge. It's great
- 2:56Speaker 2: to be here. Rudy's dead. I do we want to
- 3:01Speaker 2: do an in memoriam for Jonathan and Kristen. Yeah, so
- 3:05Speaker 2: it's me, Brandon and Chase.
- 3:07Speaker 3: Jonathan last night texts us at ten pm and he says, hey, guys,
- 3:12Speaker 3: I'm not gonna be able to make it tomorrow, which
- 3:15Speaker 3: would have been fine if you told us like two
- 3:17Speaker 3: days ago.
- 3:18Speaker 7: And Jonathan's defense, we only gave him a full twelve
- 3:21Speaker 7: hour window of which we could record, like pick a time, only.
- 3:25Speaker 2: A twelve hour. It was a twelve hour window. Hey,
- 3:27Speaker 2: you pick your poison only half a day. It was
- 3:29Speaker 2: only half a day. And so that that was that
- 3:32Speaker 2: was tough.
- 3:33Speaker 3: Yeah, So unfortunately Jonathan and Christen won't be here for
- 3:36Speaker 3: this recap. But you know, I saw some people saying
- 3:38Speaker 3: that this is like a fine premiere.
- 3:39Speaker 2: I think it was better than fun. It was awesome. Yes,
- 3:42Speaker 2: I thought there's a lot of stuff for energy now there.
- 3:45Speaker 2: Now that I know that we're not doing the in memorial,
- 3:47Speaker 2: Hey Chase, Rudy's dead. No, no, we're bringing the energy now. Rudey, Rudy, Rudy.
- 3:55Speaker 2: That feels good, all right.
- 3:57Speaker 3: So the very first thing we see is a shot
- 3:59Speaker 3: of Fiji, and then we see Mitch on a zoom call.
- 4:02Speaker 3: Because the way they opened this season was showing the
- 4:04Speaker 3: cast reaction to getting that call, the You're on Survivor call,
- 4:08Speaker 3: and it got me really hyped out.
- 4:10Speaker 2: I don't really liked it. I really enjoyed that intro
- 4:13Speaker 2: and it made me want to apply to Survivor just
- 4:16Speaker 2: to get that call. Yeah, I'm not going to anytime
- 4:18Speaker 2: soon anyway.
- 4:19Speaker 3: Yes, the intro was great, and so now let's go
- 4:23Speaker 3: to the marooning where Jeff, you know, he's out there.
- 4:27Speaker 3: He's given us a motivational Jeff speech about like how
- 4:30Speaker 3: everyone's different, but you're all here for the same reason.
- 4:33Speaker 1: You heard the call to go on Survivor, and then
- 4:36Speaker 1: he sings.
- 4:36Speaker 2: Have you heard about that?
- 4:37Speaker 7: Jeff gives a call every episode. You've heard about it,
- 4:39Speaker 7: but he gives a call every episode. He's very happy.
- 4:42Speaker 3: About it, and he's speaking to all the people who
- 4:44Speaker 3: heard the call, and before he talks to anybody else,
- 4:46Speaker 3: he singles out Mitch, and how do you think Mitch
- 4:50Speaker 3: did in that?
- 4:51Speaker 2: I thought Mitch did great. And a quick reminder.
- 4:54Speaker 7: As we did our our preview episode and we talked
- 4:57Speaker 7: about all the all the people, one of the things
- 4:58Speaker 7: about about was that he has a stutter.
- 5:01Speaker 2: Yeah, and.
- 5:03Speaker 6: I was really intrigued to see how he was going
- 5:05Speaker 6: to do, especially being the first person that Jeff called on.
- 5:09Speaker 6: That was a bold bit. It's not like Jeff didn't know.
- 5:12Speaker 6: Jeff did on purpose. He picked the guy with a
- 5:15Speaker 6: stutter on purpose, and and Mitch questioned.
- 5:17Speaker 2: It, he queshed it.
- 5:18Speaker 3: I thought, my job, what a charismatic man. Oh man,
- 5:21Speaker 3: he is so entertaining to listen to.
- 5:25Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Mitch is gonna go far. I think
- 5:27Speaker 2: so he goes home next week.
- 5:28Speaker 6: We were all trying to figure out who was going
- 5:29Speaker 6: to go home first, because they always like walk this
- 5:32Speaker 6: line of like, uh, they want you to know that
- 5:35Speaker 6: person before, so that way he doesn't feel like someone
- 5:37Speaker 6: you don't know gots at home first.
- 5:38Speaker 3: But you know, you can't too much. So everybody was
- 5:41Speaker 3: trying to figure it out. And what if it would
- 5:43Speaker 3: have been him. Well, I'm really glad it wasn't, but
- 5:47Speaker 3: but we got to get to something. They cut to
- 5:49Speaker 3: the Green Tribe after Mitch speaks, and the fashion choices.
- 5:54Speaker 1: Just blew me away. Let's talk about Justin first.
- 5:58Speaker 7: I was blown away by all of the fact from
- 6:00Speaker 7: chices by this group, not only on the beach but
- 6:02Speaker 7: throughout the entire time.
- 6:04Speaker 2: What was Justin wearing? Justin was wearing jeans right.
- 6:07Speaker 1: Yes, and a shirt with one word on it pizza.
- 6:12Speaker 2: Incredible cedric full suits like this guy.
- 6:17Speaker 6: It's as if they don't know that there is gonna
- 6:19Speaker 6: be a messy challenge right after they get marooned.
- 6:23Speaker 2: If they watched the show, it's been the past, like, yes,
- 6:26Speaker 2: five years, I knew what I know. You don't wear
- 6:30Speaker 2: a suit to the marooning.
- 6:32Speaker 3: No, because it's immediately gonna get ruined. But there was
- 6:35Speaker 3: another funny thing before we do the first reward challenge
- 6:39Speaker 3: where Jeff tells them, all right, the group in orange,
- 6:41Speaker 3: your name is Ceva and you represent the sun.
- 6:45Speaker 1: In the middle you are Vula, you represent the moon.
- 6:49Speaker 2: That's the Green Tribe.
- 6:50Speaker 3: And in the purple you are Loggie and you represent
- 6:53Speaker 3: the entire sky, the entire.
- 6:58Speaker 2: Sky, you know what.
- 6:58Speaker 6: I liked it because we were talking about their outfits.
- 7:00Speaker 6: I like how they were color coordinated with their tribe
- 7:03Speaker 6: colors ahead of time. But on the Green tribe, Cedric
- 7:07Speaker 6: is not wearing green whatsoever.
- 7:10Speaker 2: And neither is the dude wearing jeans and a white
- 7:15Speaker 2: T shirt. That's true.
- 7:16Speaker 6: So do you think production was just like, hey, bring
- 7:18Speaker 6: something green and they just didn't listen to him. Some
- 7:21Speaker 6: of them clearly listened. Mary she bought all into green.
- 7:24Speaker 2: Well, she's an Eagles, that's why she's wearing That makes sense.
- 7:28Speaker 2: It wasn't hard for her. Stephanie.
- 7:29Speaker 7: Stephanie's entire life was green, like she was the most
- 7:33Speaker 7: green person ever. So clearly some of them got the
- 7:37Speaker 7: memo and really bought into it, and some of them
- 7:39Speaker 7: were like, all right, I'm not gonna do it.
- 7:41Speaker 3: Orange tribe. Everyone's decked out an orange except for one
- 7:43Speaker 3: guy who's wearing pink.
- 7:45Speaker 2: Close enough, Yeah, it's like close enough. I'm just so
- 7:48Speaker 2: curious on like how that happened. I don't know.
- 7:51Speaker 3: And I wonder if Justin had his green pizza shirt
- 7:54Speaker 3: mate specifically.
- 7:56Speaker 2: Pizza.
- 7:57Speaker 7: I need a pizza shirt. I need that right now,
- 8:00Speaker 7: I need a merry mug and I need a get
- 8:04Speaker 7: on it justin Big Green team fan so far. So
- 8:07Speaker 7: let's get to the first reward challenge. I like to
- 8:09Speaker 7: call it the Jeff Baptism because he covers them all
- 8:11Speaker 7: in mud, and his quote, not mine, berths them into
- 8:15Speaker 7: the game.
- 8:16Speaker 2: I don't like it. I don't like it, but that's
- 8:19Speaker 2: why I made sure to credit Jeff with that quote.
- 8:21Speaker 2: Did he say it again this season? No? He said it, yeah, okay,
- 8:25Speaker 2: but not on the show.
- 8:26Speaker 7: I'm pretty sure he said it on the on the
- 8:28Speaker 7: show last season or something like that, like I remember
- 8:31Speaker 7: hearing it.
- 8:31Speaker 2: It might have just been on the podcast. But hey,
- 8:34Speaker 2: what a thing to say.
- 8:35Speaker 3: So let's talk about the Jeff Baptism Birthing Invitational. It's
- 8:40Speaker 3: the official name of the first challenge. Kevin's trying to
- 8:43Speaker 3: get through that mud, and Kevin messes up his shoulder
- 8:47Speaker 3: really immediately. Yeah, we were all very concerned about that.
- 8:49Speaker 2: He just yells my shoulder, and that's how you knew it.
- 8:52Speaker 2: It's never good.
- 8:54Speaker 7: I did I see any necessarily like performance loss with
- 8:58Speaker 7: him yell after he yelled my sh Not really, no,
- 9:01Speaker 7: but he didn't want you to know that he hurt
- 9:04Speaker 7: his shoulder.
- 9:05Speaker 3: I was thinking, we're gonna have another Bruce moment where
- 9:08Speaker 3: everything gets halted, and apparently that did happen. I was
- 9:10Speaker 3: listening to On Fire, Okay, I hadn't listened to it. Yeah,
- 9:13Speaker 3: so Jeff said that Kevin dislocated his shoulder.
- 9:15Speaker 2: Oh wow.
- 9:16Speaker 7: So they had to go back in there and pop
- 9:17Speaker 7: it right on back down there, pop it in medical
- 9:20Speaker 7: couldn't make the two hour cut, no doubt, he said,
- 9:22Speaker 7: because it made the first portion twenty minutes and it
- 9:25Speaker 7: needed to be like seventeen. Oh my gosh, I gotta
- 9:29Speaker 7: be honest, leave the guy getting his shoulder foot back
- 9:32Speaker 7: in place.
- 9:32Speaker 2: If I had to vote, yeah, yeah.
- 9:34Speaker 6: My thing is like they made sure to like caption
- 9:37Speaker 6: it on the screen every time he said my shoulder. Whatever.
- 9:40Speaker 2: They wanted us to know. He hurt his shoulder.
- 9:42Speaker 7: I know that, But the I from a storytelling perspective,
- 9:45Speaker 7: which is like all Jeff talks about is the story.
- 9:49Speaker 2: I was more confused after that, since we didn't see it.
- 9:52Speaker 2: Moved on and I don't want to get ahead too quickly,
- 9:55Speaker 2: but I'm gonna do it anyway.
- 9:57Speaker 7: They decide, Hey, you're gonna go on the the you're
- 9:59Speaker 7: gonna be our guy to go to the thing, be
- 10:01Speaker 7: a representative.
- 10:03Speaker 2: He shoulder, I thought would be a bad choice. No,
- 10:07Speaker 2: it's fine.
- 10:07Speaker 7: So I would have really appreciated finding out that he
- 10:10Speaker 7: had a dislocated shoulder and it was put back in,
- 10:12Speaker 7: because it would have made sense for the rest of
- 10:14Speaker 7: his story.
- 10:14Speaker 3: But what do I know, Jeff said, he they they
- 10:17Speaker 3: mentioned it, or he meant that Kevin mentioned it in
- 10:19Speaker 3: the confessional, and he's like, so we got it.
- 10:21Speaker 2: We found out he hurt his shoulder, but he's okay.
- 10:24Speaker 3: Yeah, they pop it back in and they tell him
- 10:26Speaker 3: that there's gonna be some like, there's gonna be some pain,
- 10:29Speaker 3: but it's manageable right now and he can stay in
- 10:31Speaker 3: the game.
- 10:32Speaker 6: Sold would you My favorite because I read the article
- 10:35Speaker 6: uh where Jeff was talking about this, and my favorite
- 10:38Speaker 6: Jeff quote from this moment is he goes M. Kevin
- 10:42Speaker 6: kind of surprised me because I happened to be standing
- 10:44Speaker 6: near him when he suddenly said.
- 10:46Speaker 2: I'm in pain.
- 10:46Speaker 3: I'm in pain, And I said, can you hang a second?
- 10:49Speaker 3: And he said no, and I said, Okay, he's really
- 10:52Speaker 3: in pain.
- 10:55Speaker 1: I didn't know about that quote. I'm glad you brought
- 10:57Speaker 1: that up.
- 10:57Speaker 2: What us can you hang a second? Mean, like, what
- 11:00Speaker 2: what are the options?
- 11:00Speaker 6: I just love how he heard on repeat, I'm in pain,
- 11:03Speaker 6: I'm in pain. Hey you okay, Okay, he's really good.
- 11:07Speaker 2: I'm in pain. Wasn't enough? Does Jeff mean, can we
- 11:10Speaker 2: keep the challenge going? I think that's why it was. Yeah. Maybe,
- 11:13Speaker 2: but they didn't stop the challenge. They did. They did
- 11:15Speaker 2: so they stopped the challenge. All the Gavin medical comes in.
- 11:17Speaker 2: They stop everything. Oh, I assume that it happened after
- 11:20Speaker 2: the fact. They just didn't show us. That's crazy. They
- 11:22Speaker 2: should have kept that in. It would have been a
- 11:25Speaker 2: good moment. I can't They should have kept that in.
- 11:28Speaker 2: That's great. But also Jeff Probes can do no wrong.
- 11:30Speaker 2: The Father, the Son, and the Holy Probes.
- 11:33Speaker 3: That's right, that's really good. So for this challenge, they
- 11:37Speaker 3: had to retrieve some heavy chests. Once you get all
- 11:39Speaker 3: three chests, then you go back into the mud. And
- 11:42Speaker 3: then the next part is where our boy Cedric struggled
- 11:44Speaker 3: a little bit.
- 11:45Speaker 2: The steep ramp. Cedric had his issue, Guy Greenville, Cedricville, Yeah,
- 11:52Speaker 2: he was really struggling. He kept falling down. We never
- 11:55Speaker 2: actually got to see him get up there.
- 11:57Speaker 7: In my mind, I'm like, oh, he's he's still doing it,
- 11:59Speaker 7: And then next thing you know, they're running back and like,
- 12:02Speaker 7: it's interesting to me to spotlight someone struggling getting up
- 12:07Speaker 7: the wall and not show him getting up the wall,
- 12:10Speaker 7: similar to it's interesting to spotlight someone going my shoulder
- 12:15Speaker 7: and not show his shoulder getting getting But again, I guess.
- 12:19Speaker 6: It's hard for that first episode because they tried to
- 12:21Speaker 6: emphasize on getting.
- 12:22Speaker 2: To know as many But good point.
- 12:26Speaker 3: Maybe just maybe if he didn't wear jeans in a blazer,
- 12:30Speaker 3: it would have been.
- 12:31Speaker 2: A little easier, no kidding, real real struggle there.
- 12:35Speaker 3: Yeah, so that was unfortunate for Cedric, but we got
- 12:38Speaker 3: a really good moment for one of our contestants. Next
- 12:40Speaker 3: we got our first That's how You Do It of
- 12:42Speaker 3: the season, and uh, at least I think it was
- 12:45Speaker 3: the first one, and it went to Eva for how
- 12:47Speaker 3: quickly she got up the ramp.
- 12:49Speaker 2: Well, you go, that's how you do it, survivor, that's
- 12:51Speaker 2: how you do it.
- 12:52Speaker 3: That's how you do it when you're a female hockey
- 12:55Speaker 3: player on the men's team.
- 12:56Speaker 6: Kidding, and she's an autistic queen. That's right, We're going
- 13:00Speaker 6: with it. Yeah, I'm rocking with all right because she's awesome.
- 13:03Speaker 6: She's awesome, incredible story and it's like a major part
- 13:05Speaker 6: of who she is. She said, yeah, so I don't
- 13:07Speaker 6: think she would be and like a big plot point
- 13:10Speaker 6: later on, Yeah, yeah with her conversation.
- 13:13Speaker 3: So Purple, the Laggy tribe, they got out to an
- 13:16Speaker 3: early lead and then Shaheen clinches it for them.
- 13:19Speaker 2: They get the tribe supplies.
- 13:20Speaker 3: The two losing tribes, Orange and Green, both get to
- 13:23Speaker 3: choose someone to compete for supplies, and like brand mentioned,
- 13:26Speaker 3: Justin's like, Kevin, you know you didn't really get to
- 13:29Speaker 3: participate in the challenge because you know, you dislocated your shoulder.
- 13:32Speaker 3: How about you go compete for our supplies.
- 13:35Speaker 2: I thought that was weird too. It's so weird.
- 13:39Speaker 6: Do you think that maybe he was trying to do
- 13:41Speaker 6: some strategy of like, oh, I'm setting him up for
- 13:43Speaker 6: failure so that way, if we lose the Immunity Challenge,
- 13:46Speaker 6: he'll go home first. Maybe because then it's like, oh,
- 13:48Speaker 6: he got hurt of the first challenge, he cost us
- 13:50Speaker 6: our supplies in this second challenge, and then you know,
- 13:53Speaker 6: if you ended up going to tribal, then it's like, oh, well,
- 13:54Speaker 6: then we also lost the third challenge.
- 13:56Speaker 2: He is the weakly Yes, he did go to Yale.
- 13:58Speaker 3: He could be in Skull and like he might have
- 14:01Speaker 3: George Bush in George w So Orange chooses Kyle and
- 14:05Speaker 3: before we go to the challenge. You would think that,
- 14:07Speaker 3: you know, we would go to the challenge after they
- 14:11Speaker 3: choose the people for the challenge, but we actually go
- 14:14Speaker 3: to the Laggie Beach and the focus is on Thomas
- 14:17Speaker 3: and he talked about how he's on a tribe with
- 14:19Speaker 3: huge threats and that he and Bianca really hit it off,
- 14:23Speaker 3: and is it too early to say power Alliance and
- 14:26Speaker 3: Thomas it is?
- 14:29Speaker 7: But that didn't stop that didn't stop anybody in this
- 14:32Speaker 7: episode from talking, you know, like talking game, talking serious game.
- 14:38Speaker 6: Hey, you're my number one, you're my day one, we're
- 14:39Speaker 6: gonna get four, you're my FOURD or you're my thirdy.
- 14:42Speaker 6: Immediately you can't have a Day one? Well I don't
- 14:46Speaker 6: day one. You're so right, Chase, Yeah, you're so right.
- 14:49Speaker 6: That's a great point.
- 14:50Speaker 3: But I don't even think he's gonna be rocking with
- 14:52Speaker 3: his Day one No, because I'm sure you'll get to
- 14:54Speaker 3: it in a second. He makes another Power Alliance very
- 14:56Speaker 3: quickly after this, and it might be even more powerful.
- 14:59Speaker 3: But you know, we'll get to that later. You said
- 15:01Speaker 3: it was too early. I don't think after watching this
- 15:04Speaker 3: is too early for anything, because these people want to
- 15:06Speaker 3: get right into the game. So we're still not talking
- 15:09Speaker 3: about that Kevin and Kyle challenge. We're going to go
- 15:12Speaker 3: to the Orange Beach now where David lets us know
- 15:15Speaker 3: that he's awesome and he's a superhero and he.
- 15:17Speaker 2: Can start fires with bamboo and he avoids water.
- 15:20Speaker 6: I don't know if it's a hot take or not.
- 15:22Speaker 6: I hate him, didn't like him at all in fact,
- 15:26Speaker 6: and every time he was on.
- 15:27Speaker 2: The screen, I was like, let's get him out of here.
- 15:30Speaker 2: They can he get out of here now? I don't
- 15:32Speaker 2: know if I'm alone in that.
- 15:33Speaker 6: I don't hate him, but I can see where you're
- 15:35Speaker 6: coming from. I think he's definitely going to be a
- 15:37Speaker 6: more polarizing character. That's another thing. I try to consider
- 15:41Speaker 6: them as characters, sure because of the edits, so yes,
- 15:44Speaker 6: you know, he could be a wonderful guy.
- 15:48Speaker 2: But I do feel where you're coming.
- 15:50Speaker 6: From because he did that kind of like that arrogant
- 15:53Speaker 6: guy thing where they're trying to not be arrogant, and
- 15:55Speaker 6: they're like, you know, hey, if you know, if he
- 15:58Speaker 6: doesn't get.
- 15:58Speaker 2: The flint, you know I can I can make fire
- 16:00Speaker 2: with bamboo. You can make fire with bamboo. Yeah, yeah,
- 16:03Speaker 2: you know if I do you want to do that?
- 16:04Speaker 4: Now?
- 16:06Speaker 2: If he could do it so and he's a superhero,
- 16:08Speaker 2: I think we would have saw it. Yeah, I to
- 16:10Speaker 2: your point.
- 16:10Speaker 6: The editor for the edit for him seemed very specific,
- 16:15Speaker 6: like everything that he said was so so cocky and
- 16:18Speaker 6: so full of himself that I can't imagine that he
- 16:23Speaker 6: didn't have some lines where he wasn't that right, like,
- 16:25Speaker 6: and they just didn't show.
- 16:26Speaker 2: It's the thing.
- 16:26Speaker 6: That's what I love about it, is like I love
- 16:28Speaker 6: the show because there are going to be kind of
- 16:30Speaker 6: quote unquote villain characters, and he's kind of one right now.
- 16:34Speaker 3: Yeah, the avoiding water thing, let's talk about that some more.
- 16:40Speaker 3: How do you look like him? He's ripped. How do
- 16:42Speaker 3: you not hydrate?
- 16:43Speaker 2: I don't know, but he hed, to his credit, he
- 16:47Speaker 2: did take a sip of water and then said disgusting.
- 16:52Speaker 7: I mean, so he is trying, he's trying to evolve,
- 16:55Speaker 7: he's trying to grow. He understands that he's gonna need
- 16:57Speaker 7: to drink water.
- 16:58Speaker 2: Obviously, I would hope you and he just thinks it's disgusting,
- 17:03Speaker 2: so that's what he says.
- 17:07Speaker 3: Maybe I'd be higher on him if he did some
- 17:09Speaker 3: more chocolate milk bits in this episode, but there wasn't.
- 17:12Speaker 2: Is he the chocolate milk Captain America? Yeah?
- 17:14Speaker 6: Oh man, Now I gotta go back because I was
- 17:17Speaker 6: like rooting for him hard in the preseason.
- 17:19Speaker 2: Never mind, he's awesome, He's milk Captain America.
- 17:22Speaker 3: Baby.
- 17:23Speaker 2: He can't do chocolate milk though. On the island. Maybe
- 17:25Speaker 2: you can figure it out.
- 17:26Speaker 6: But reward dirt and water, Yeah, close your eyes. Do
- 17:29Speaker 6: you think that one of the rewards of the sanctuary whatever?
- 17:32Speaker 6: Try to have chocolate milk for him and he's gonna
- 17:33Speaker 6: lose his mind.
- 17:34Speaker 2: That would be awesome.
- 17:35Speaker 1: So you would think now we're gonna talk about the challenge.
- 17:37Speaker 2: No, uh, we really did like the episode. Yeah, I
- 17:41Speaker 2: just fought it on the record. Yeah.
- 17:43Speaker 3: The editing is just like they had a lot of
- 17:44Speaker 3: stuff to get to, so we spread some stuff out.
- 17:47Speaker 3: You know, we talked about the challenge it's about to
- 17:49Speaker 3: happen three scenes ago. But we get Cy saying I
- 17:53Speaker 3: don't want to build camaraderie around the campfire. Yes, that's
- 17:56Speaker 3: part of it, but I need to know about the
- 17:58Speaker 3: longevity of my game him. And then she goes up
- 18:00Speaker 3: to Justin and Cedric and she says, let's lock in three.
- 18:03Speaker 3: Let's lock in three right now.
- 18:04Speaker 6: You were my third.
- 18:06Speaker 7: I had quite the journey with ci on this episode,
- 18:08Speaker 7: I must say, from not liking her at all to
- 18:12Speaker 7: finding her really endearing to not liking her at all.
- 18:14Speaker 2: So quite the journey for cy, I must say, Yeah,
- 18:17Speaker 2: I agree.
- 18:17Speaker 3: I went from liking her to being annoyed to being
- 18:21Speaker 3: so annoyed that I'm like, this is.
- 18:22Speaker 2: Good for TV.
- 18:23Speaker 3: Let's keep sorry right for TV. She's great for TV. Oh, so, guys,
- 18:29Speaker 3: it's time. Let's get to the challenge between Kevin and
- 18:35Speaker 3: Kyle brand take it away.
- 18:36Speaker 7: So we know Kevin, obviously, we've talked about him his
- 18:39Speaker 7: hurt shoulder. Kyle, if you remember from our Previey episode,
- 18:42Speaker 7: really smart guy, I believe he was. He's a lawyer
- 18:46Speaker 7: and attorney, really smart, and they kind of have two
- 18:50Speaker 7: different approaches to this game.
- 18:51Speaker 2: So the game is you.
- 18:53Speaker 7: Gotta follow this long rope thing and get a machete,
- 18:58Speaker 7: and then you gotta go and you gotta find this
- 19:00Speaker 7: key that's on top of this bamboo and get it
- 19:02Speaker 7: down by any means necessary, and then go down and
- 19:05Speaker 7: get the vessel to be able to fill it up
- 19:09Speaker 7: with water. And whoever does that first ones and very
- 19:13Speaker 7: different approaches, I think I I.
- 19:15Speaker 6: Uh, so Kevin is caught like talking to himself, go slow,
- 19:20Speaker 6: slow and study, slow and steady. And Kyle's over there
- 19:23Speaker 6: like going nuts, going crazy.
- 19:27Speaker 7: And to Kevin's slow and study approach and his defense,
- 19:31Speaker 7: it ends up working for him because he's he's able
- 19:34Speaker 7: to figure out, hey, okay, I have this machete now,
- 19:37Speaker 7: and then this other rope is connected to coconut. That
- 19:40Speaker 7: must mean that the key is in the coconut I
- 19:42Speaker 7: can cut. Kyle is going so fast that he can't
- 19:45Speaker 7: even think straight gets both of those things.
- 19:47Speaker 2: And just I don't really know what his plan was,
- 19:50Speaker 2: but he just kind of took it with him.
- 19:52Speaker 7: It was like going on the next thing and uh
- 19:55Speaker 7: and then uh, Kevin ends up getting to the bamboo,
- 19:59Speaker 7: and he ends up finding another perfectly sized length of
- 20:04Speaker 7: bamboo just lying around, I guess, and he's trying to
- 20:07Speaker 7: use it to prop the bucket off with the key
- 20:11Speaker 7: or whatever, and Kyle, on the other hand, is like,
- 20:17Speaker 7: so two very different approaches, and so you might be
- 20:21Speaker 7: wondering how all these different approaches affect the final part
- 20:25Speaker 7: of this, which is to fill up this glass vessel
- 20:28Speaker 7: with water.
- 20:29Speaker 2: First. One to do it first wins. Here's the thing
- 20:31Speaker 2: about glass. You gotta be careful around that thing.
- 20:35Speaker 7: And Kyle not careful around that thing, was going very fast,
- 20:40Speaker 7: so fast that he ended up breaking shattering his glass vessel.
- 20:44Speaker 7: So since it's broken in half, can't fill it all
- 20:46Speaker 7: the way to the top. And so he's very kind
- 20:49Speaker 7: though he does this thing. I think he's thinking, he's
- 20:52Speaker 7: thinking merge, He's thinking, I'm gonna eventually have to interact
- 20:55Speaker 7: with this guy. Why not start, you know, having some
- 20:57Speaker 7: goodwill with him now, And so he helps him fill
- 21:01Speaker 7: up his vessel.
- 21:02Speaker 2: So it's two different approaches. And I gotta be honest
- 21:05Speaker 2: with you.
- 21:05Speaker 7: While this was happening, like Kevin was so like he
- 21:08Speaker 7: was constantly talking about Sloan study to take your time,
- 21:10Speaker 7: take your time, and I was like, don't take your
- 21:12Speaker 7: It's a.
- 21:13Speaker 2: Race just so much I know to his credit, dislocated shoulder.
- 21:18Speaker 2: Dislocated shoulder something they did not talk about during this
- 21:23Speaker 2: year events. That's literally what I said. While he was
- 21:25Speaker 2: pulling it up. I was like, sure, she's fine now,
- 21:28Speaker 2: so I don't Yeah, it would have been nice to
- 21:30Speaker 2: know that.
- 21:30Speaker 3: But at the beginning he was kind of like, look,
- 21:32Speaker 3: I'm gonna lose anyway. I might, you know, I might
- 21:35Speaker 3: just take it easy to the beginning, and then once
- 21:37Speaker 3: he realized he had a shot, that's when Kevin started
- 21:40Speaker 3: to go into full gear.
- 21:41Speaker 7: I found the thing that I found to be most
- 21:44Speaker 7: like I wouldn't have even I guess he had the
- 21:47Speaker 7: advantage of seeing how Kyle was trying to fill up
- 21:50Speaker 7: his vessel and just like splashing it all in there
- 21:52Speaker 7: and not much of it going in. But I don't
- 21:55Speaker 7: think I would have gotten to that conclusion to just hey,
- 21:58Speaker 7: go really slowly with the poor and be trying to
- 22:01Speaker 7: be precise with it.
- 22:01Speaker 2: I would have. I think I would have done the
- 22:03Speaker 2: Kyle approach, which is just shatter it.
- 22:06Speaker 6: Just go go hard, go fast, and the water. If
- 22:09Speaker 6: the more water you pour down faster, it'll fill up.
- 22:12Speaker 6: And I'm that's I'm just not that smart.
- 22:14Speaker 2: And so it was really interesting to see two different
- 22:16Speaker 2: approaches and how that approach ultimately ended in Kyle breaking
- 22:21Speaker 2: his vessel chase.
- 22:22Speaker 3: What did you think of Kyle's decision to help Kevin.
- 22:25Speaker 3: I thought it was a stand up move.
- 22:28Speaker 6: Like I thought that was great gameplay, like strategy wise,
- 22:31Speaker 6: but also just like you can you can tell it.
- 22:33Speaker 2: Maybe he wasn't even really thinking about it.
- 22:35Speaker 6: He was just really upset with himself for breaking He's like,
- 22:37Speaker 6: you know what, I can either stand here or I
- 22:39Speaker 6: could I can help him, And I think that out
- 22:41Speaker 6: and he's just a good guy.
- 22:42Speaker 2: It made me a big fan of him. What would
- 22:44Speaker 2: Andy have done? And Andy would This is what I
- 22:50Speaker 2: think Andy would have done.
- 22:51Speaker 6: Andy would have like thrown himself down into the sand,
- 22:55Speaker 6: put his head in the sand and just been like
- 22:57Speaker 6: really upset, gotten back to try and just had a
- 23:00Speaker 6: melt down in front of everyone.
- 23:02Speaker 2: Andy would have rick flared himself. He would have flop.
- 23:06Speaker 2: Oh no, no one feared for me when I made
- 23:11Speaker 2: myself flee.
- 23:12Speaker 1: We've never had a survivor blade job.
- 23:14Speaker 2: Come on, let's do it.
- 23:16Speaker 6: I thought was interesting though this is the second time
- 23:19Speaker 6: in the past few seasons where glass is broken in
- 23:22Speaker 6: that challenge, but between the remember Jelenski when he was
- 23:26Speaker 6: doing that challenge and just chucked the glass.
- 23:28Speaker 2: Thing and it shattered. Yeah, what is up with that?
- 23:31Speaker 2: Why don't they use plastic? Let's not use glass?
- 23:33Speaker 3: Before we move on, one Jolynsky thing I want to
- 23:36Speaker 3: bring up real quick is that Jelensky. We were all like,
- 23:39Speaker 3: oh my gosh, he said seven means several next season
- 23:42Speaker 3: forty seven, We're gonna say it constantly.
- 23:44Speaker 2: Nobody said it. We all forgot memorial. Memorial. Yeah, it
- 23:51Speaker 2: just said several.
- 23:52Speaker 3: We had a lot of fun with several for like
- 23:54Speaker 3: the first half of forty six. And then we're like, okay,
- 23:56Speaker 3: this this bit's kind of.
- 23:57Speaker 2: I am sure he made merch and I hope he
- 24:00Speaker 2: made money off of it.
- 24:01Speaker 3: Kevin returns to the Green Tribe with the supplies. Uh,
- 24:04Speaker 3: and then Mary knocks out a fire immediately she took
- 24:06Speaker 3: those supplies. Iconic mother mayor. That's right, she gets that flame.
- 24:11Speaker 3: Mary as she says, he's never tried to start a fire. Wait,
- 24:14Speaker 3: then we got fired.
- 24:15Speaker 2: She had never done it before. You guys just kind
- 24:16Speaker 2: of put this together real quick. But by the way,
- 24:18Speaker 2: we didn't even acknowledge Mary in our intro. Incredible. Oh.
- 24:23Speaker 7: Mary hooked us up on cameo and gave us some
- 24:27Speaker 7: great line reads and.
- 24:30Speaker 2: Incredible and the whole video is great. She's just so funny.
- 24:33Speaker 3: Mary is my favorite immediately. Yeah, you know the fact
- 24:37Speaker 3: that we got her to read that tweet and she
- 24:38Speaker 3: was so willing to do it. So here's the backstory
- 24:40Speaker 3: on that. After we did the draft extravaganza talking about
- 24:44Speaker 3: all the players, I mean not draft extravage, pre pre game,
- 24:48Speaker 3: pre season extravaganza, I talked about the cameo thing, and
- 24:52Speaker 3: then that later that night, I was like, I got
- 24:55Speaker 3: to pull the trigger on this. It's ten bucks, so
- 24:57Speaker 3: it's gonna go.
- 24:59Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 25:00Speaker 3: So at three am, when I get my work done,
- 25:02Speaker 3: I sent that off to Mary and then she had
- 25:05Speaker 3: it done the next day and I was like, this
- 25:06Speaker 3: is gold. The price is only going to go up
- 25:08Speaker 3: on the ten dollars Merry Cammy.
- 25:09Speaker 6: Especially considering her first confessional she drops an F bomb
- 25:13Speaker 6: and is already hilarious.
- 25:15Speaker 2: She's so funny. Actually, we've got that clip. We do
- 25:17Speaker 2: have that confessional. Do you want it? So I got
- 25:21Speaker 2: the fire started and that was pretty cool, but it
- 25:25Speaker 2: was kind of easy. I'm glad that everyone's got to
- 25:27Speaker 2: make the fire. However, I feel like in the new era,
- 25:30Speaker 2: people also don't give up about that. She's iconic.
- 25:35Speaker 1: Yeah, dude, straight up, like Mary is bratt she is.
- 25:41Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't really know what that means still, but
- 25:44Speaker 2: I do agree very brat.
- 25:47Speaker 3: It's very bratt to get the flint, immediately start a
- 25:50Speaker 3: fire when you've never done it before, and then drop
- 25:52Speaker 3: an F bomb in your first ever confessional.
- 25:54Speaker 2: Yeah. So she's so iconic, dude.
- 25:56Speaker 6: She doesn't win this season, she'll still definitely come back
- 25:59Speaker 6: in the future, because, man, can.
- 26:01Speaker 2: You imagine Mary if it comes down to Mary making fire, Like,
- 26:05Speaker 2: oh oh man, she's like never done this before. Oh this,
- 26:10Speaker 2: I haven't done it since I did it my first time. Immediately, dude.
- 26:15Speaker 6: I think the reason that she had her merch ready
- 26:17Speaker 6: before the season is because she knew episode one she
- 26:19Speaker 6: was gonna be the f fate out.
- 26:20Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 26:21Speaker 3: I knew from doing her preview. I was like, we've
- 26:23Speaker 3: struck gold with Mary.
- 26:24Speaker 6: We had I can't wait later in this episode once
- 26:28Speaker 6: we get there, I have another thing I want to
- 26:29Speaker 6: say about Mary, but I'm gonna save it. Okay, so
- 26:31Speaker 6: you're listening, don't change that dial. Well, I've got another
- 26:34Speaker 6: thing to say about Mary right now. And the next scene,
- 26:37Speaker 6: she calls Kevin a Golden Retriever, very accurate. SI after
- 26:40Speaker 6: that immediately pulls Kevin aside and she's like, you know what, Kevin,
- 26:45Speaker 6: I want to bring you into my group.
- 26:47Speaker 2: We're gonna have it be the Core four.
- 26:49Speaker 1: Yeah, and that Core four consists of Kevin, Cedric, Justin.
- 26:55Speaker 6: And Ci Yes, Yes, yes, and but and so Justin
- 26:59Speaker 6: and Kevin men are kind of in this interesting spot,
- 27:02Speaker 6: the two of them, because they've both kind of had
- 27:04Speaker 6: conversations with both both sides and they'll continue to that.
- 27:08Speaker 6: I would say that the solid tudes are Cy and
- 27:11Speaker 6: Cedric and then Mary and Stephanie. They those those two
- 27:16Speaker 6: groups have kind of they're hanging out with each other
- 27:19Speaker 6: all the time. And then Kevin and Pizza are kind
- 27:23Speaker 6: of like they're they're hanging out with both groups.
- 27:28Speaker 2: I mean, you know, wear a shirt that just says
- 27:30Speaker 2: Pizza not expected to call you Pizza. Yeah.
- 27:33Speaker 6: I also liked how he's like he just kind of
- 27:34Speaker 6: seems like a stoner archetype. So like the whole episode,
- 27:37Speaker 6: there was a lot of times where he just didn't
- 27:39Speaker 6: seem to care at all, Like he's like he didn't
- 27:41Speaker 6: even here to be Like, at one point he was
- 27:42Speaker 6: helping try to to cipher. Well, that's a jump ahead
- 27:46Speaker 6: a little bit. He tried to cipher something and he
- 27:49Speaker 6: does not seem excited whatsoever.
- 27:52Speaker 2: So there's numbers exactly. He was like, oh cool, yeah, man,
- 27:56Speaker 2: this is this is dope. Yeah, we gotta figure this out.
- 27:58Speaker 2: Be a man speaking of deciphering something.
- 28:02Speaker 3: Back on the Orange Beach, David starts noticing colorful animals.
- 28:06Speaker 2: Does start noticing colorful animals?
- 28:09Speaker 5: Uh?
- 28:10Speaker 2: Do you do? You think you guys would have noticed it,
- 28:12Speaker 2: like on your first day? Okay, for sure, because you've
- 28:15Speaker 2: never seen that. I think I would have.
- 28:16Speaker 6: It was giant, I know, but I think I would
- 28:19Speaker 6: be too like excited to like be aware of a stencil.
- 28:24Speaker 2: Okay, maybe I should have noticed. It's like they are
- 28:28Speaker 2: stencils of like.
- 28:29Speaker 6: Whales and red eagle birds and whatnot, So maybe I
- 28:34Speaker 6: should notice it. But knowing myself, i'd be too like
- 28:38Speaker 6: focused on all right, where we like, let's all be
- 28:40Speaker 6: friends like stuff like. I feel like I would be
- 28:43Speaker 6: too excited to notice it on day one, it's all okay,
- 28:46Speaker 6: that's a day two, that's.
- 28:50Speaker 2: Right.
- 28:50Speaker 3: I think if me and Chase were on the island,
- 28:51Speaker 3: we would have noticed it, just because they don't they
- 28:54Speaker 3: this has never happened. There's never just been random colorful animals.
- 28:57Speaker 2: I would see it and I would be like, oh,
- 28:59Speaker 2: they never showed us those before. Keep in the cutting
- 29:04Speaker 2: room floor.
- 29:05Speaker 3: Yeah, but we've got a great David quote about the
- 29:07Speaker 3: colorful animals. He said it could mean nothing. It's got
- 29:10Speaker 3: to mean something though a philosopher, that man.
- 29:17Speaker 2: Yeah, David's great.
- 29:18Speaker 3: He then tells everybody about the weird animals after Kyle
- 29:21Speaker 3: came back, and now the whole tribe is searching for
- 29:24Speaker 3: the beware. But we didn't get shown anyone finding it.
- 29:27Speaker 2: No, no, they did not find it.
- 29:30Speaker 7: I found it interesting how willing that group was to
- 29:36Speaker 7: and eventually when we do find the big ware advantage,
- 29:39Speaker 7: everybody's so willing to work with everybody on everything in
- 29:43Speaker 7: this episode, which is really interesting.
- 29:45Speaker 6: I have a whole thing about that, because I was
- 29:46Speaker 6: thinking about that pretty hard last night. Is this season
- 29:49Speaker 6: feels a little different than the past couple because the past,
- 29:53Speaker 6: especially last season, where it was like if you were
- 29:55Speaker 6: a threat, you were going home immediately, this one feels
- 29:57Speaker 6: a little bit more traditional, like a more traditional However,
- 30:00Speaker 6: they're still keeping that thing of like I don't want
- 30:03Speaker 6: a secret that I keep from everybody because they're so
- 30:07Speaker 6: afraid of like someone finding out about their advantage, and
- 30:09Speaker 6: then they go home immediately. So it was weird in
- 30:11Speaker 6: between of like playing really hard but then keeping that
- 30:14Speaker 6: new like fear of any sort of advantage. Yeah, but
- 30:17Speaker 6: what they don't know, what they're not privy to, is
- 30:19Speaker 6: that Sue had a secret the whole season last.
- 30:21Speaker 2: Season and they got her to the final, but she
- 30:27Speaker 2: had a secret. Sue.
- 30:29Speaker 3: Sue, Sue, Sue, Sue loves Sue. So now let's get
- 30:33Speaker 3: to the best moment of the entire episode.
- 30:36Speaker 2: Eva.
- 30:37Speaker 3: She has not been open with her autism to anyone
- 30:39Speaker 3: on the show at this point, but Eva feels like
- 30:42Speaker 3: she can trust Joe, so yeah, she pulls him aside
- 30:45Speaker 3: and tells them that she's on the spectrum. She was
- 30:48Speaker 3: told that she'd never live independently or have a job,
- 30:51Speaker 3: but her parents didn't give up on her. She then
- 30:53Speaker 3: tells them that she can get over stimulated and to
- 30:55Speaker 3: grab and squeeze her hands as much as possible and
- 30:58Speaker 3: that would calm her down, and when she gets too
- 31:00Speaker 3: after a challenge or whatever it is, that he can
- 31:02Speaker 3: just squeeze her hands really hard and she'll feel better,
- 31:04Speaker 3: and then we get a beautiful moment of Joe and
- 31:07Speaker 3: a confessional with tears in his eyes where he says,
- 31:09Speaker 3: I've made a decision, She's with me, I've got.
- 31:13Speaker 2: Her great, and he's tearing up.
- 31:15Speaker 6: It's very It's that whole scene was incredible and just
- 31:19Speaker 6: a great moment for humans. I think, you know, like
- 31:22Speaker 6: that's what I is so great about Survivor is there
- 31:26Speaker 6: is there's so much going on, but at the end
- 31:29Speaker 6: of the day, there are these like truly human moments
- 31:32Speaker 6: that are like that's dope, that's great in the midst
- 31:34Speaker 6: of the game, but also there's other people that are like,
- 31:36Speaker 6: it's still a game, Like I don't care.
- 31:37Speaker 7: I don't care about this. We'll stave it for outside
- 31:39Speaker 7: the game. So it's always interesting to see how those
- 31:41Speaker 7: things kind of shake out and what At some point
- 31:47Speaker 7: there might be a situation where Joe might have to
- 31:52Speaker 7: vote her.
- 31:52Speaker 6: Out or or we'll see something or something will happen
- 31:55Speaker 6: where and I And that's always like, what will happen
- 31:58Speaker 6: if if you are presented with the opportunity to vote
- 32:02Speaker 6: out or need to vote her out or whatever it is.
- 32:04Speaker 2: It's always on day one to be like I'm never
- 32:09Speaker 2: I got her. Yeah.
- 32:10Speaker 6: The fact that he said I will destroy my own
- 32:12Speaker 6: game before I let her down makes me like, well,
- 32:15Speaker 6: really excited to see if that comes to playing you
- 32:17Speaker 6: said it. But speaking of that too, I feel like
- 32:20Speaker 6: this season we're getting, like really because we've talked about
- 32:23Speaker 6: some more villain edits we've gotten already, but we've got
- 32:26Speaker 6: a big hero edit big hero which makes me excited
- 32:29Speaker 6: because back in the day, that was the whole thing.
- 32:31Speaker 6: It was heroes versus villains, right, and this, I mean
- 32:34Speaker 6: Joe is obviously a hero. Our boy getting dislocated shoulder
- 32:37Speaker 6: and still fighting through and winning. That's a hero moment.
- 32:39Speaker 6: Like we're getting all these hero moments, we're also getting
- 32:42Speaker 6: some pretty big villain moments.
- 32:43Speaker 2: I do just want to say.
- 32:44Speaker 3: I know it's it's too early to say anything we're
- 32:46Speaker 3: on episode one, but I'm gonna say it anyway. This
- 32:49Speaker 3: scene tells me that Eva and Joe are making the merch.
- 32:54Speaker 3: I was just gonna say it, Okay, show, it'll finally click.
- 33:01Speaker 3: Can we get some sort of sound drop whenever we
- 33:03Speaker 3: accidentally the show?
- 33:06Speaker 2: I really Oh I can, uh yeah, I can? Can
- 33:10Speaker 2: I do it? Can? I? Oh? Wait here? I uh yeah,
- 33:19Speaker 2: I think that they will.
- 33:20Speaker 7: I will just say it I and I said it
- 33:22Speaker 7: in the Patreon chap. But it is an interesting choice
- 33:25Speaker 7: to tell the strongest person in the game, squeeze me as.
- 33:30Speaker 2: Hard as you can. I love that. I love that
- 33:33Speaker 2: she felt so safe with him.
- 33:35Speaker 7: That she said squeeze me as hard as you can,
- 33:36Speaker 7: and he was like, I will, I will, I will,
- 33:38Speaker 7: I will, I will snap you in half accidentally.
- 33:42Speaker 2: He's so strong.
- 33:43Speaker 6: It's such a beautiful like relationship because I'm really times
- 33:48Speaker 6: in Survivor history we get typically an older woman and
- 33:51Speaker 6: a younger guy and they team up. Uh, there's been
- 33:55Speaker 6: times where we've gotten a really older guy and a
- 33:57Speaker 6: younger girl and they team up and to win a season.
- 34:01Speaker 6: I'm not going to do any sort of spoilers, please don't,
- 34:03Speaker 6: but it's been very effective in the past in the past,
- 34:06Speaker 6: but this is like, you know, Joe's not super old now,
- 34:09Speaker 6: he's just.
- 34:09Speaker 3: A little bit of an order, a huge physical threat
- 34:12Speaker 3: teaming up with a younger girl.
- 34:14Speaker 7: And I just think she talks about the father figure
- 34:17Speaker 7: like that. So yeah, I'm that's one of the storylines.
- 34:20Speaker 7: I'm most intrigued to see how to how it plays out.
- 34:22Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he's about Sue's age forty five. Hey,
- 34:26Speaker 2: you know who else was an old man? Rudy. Ah, yeah,
- 34:29Speaker 2: Rudy was. He did pass away a few years ago.
- 34:31Speaker 2: And yeah we knew from the in memorium. We actually
- 34:33Speaker 2: did see it.
- 34:34Speaker 6: We were we were doing, I know, we kept joking
- 34:36Speaker 6: and I was like, I just want everybody to listening
- 34:38Speaker 6: to know Rudy didn't.
- 34:39Speaker 3: Rudy, he really did drink contaminated water in Vietnam. He
- 34:44Speaker 3: admitted that, Yeah, maybe they had something to do with
- 34:47Speaker 3: but it took a long time catches.
- 34:48Speaker 2: Up and he lived long.
- 34:50Speaker 7: Dude, held always feel about when like people that smoke
- 34:53Speaker 7: their whole lives, like live a long time, Like maybe.
- 34:55Speaker 2: I should, like maybe we should we should all smoke
- 34:58Speaker 2: and shouldn't smoking a cigarett It looks so cool.
- 35:01Speaker 3: Almost every day every day, bro PD does smoke cigarettes.
- 35:05Speaker 2: He smokes like eight packs a day. Yeah, I know,
- 35:07Speaker 2: I like this guy. That's how I got my broadcaster point.
- 35:12Speaker 2: Really good, brother, That's how you do it.
- 35:16Speaker 1: Imagine what if he smoked during the challenge.
- 35:22Speaker 2: That's how he lights the torches at the first council.
- 35:27Speaker 2: That's how you do it. Guys, don't smoke. This is
- 35:32Speaker 2: a PSA from making it. That's exactly right. Oh, you
- 35:35Speaker 2: said it? That was that was you were just saying
- 35:38Speaker 2: the title. He still said it.
- 35:43Speaker 3: Now we're back to the Green Beach and say is
- 35:45Speaker 3: randomly like, hey, I've got to get an idol before Stephanie,
- 35:49Speaker 3: and uh, I don't really know where that came from,
- 35:51Speaker 3: but she's she's looking for it, and she's walking around
- 35:53Speaker 3: with Justin and she said I heard something say get
- 35:56Speaker 3: on your tippy toes and look in this hole, and
- 36:00Speaker 3: side uses that voice and gets the beware it was
- 36:04Speaker 3: exactly in that hole that she looked in.
- 36:06Speaker 2: Only that voice wasn't a producer. Yeah, I hope not.
- 36:09Speaker 2: But here's she's just walking where I come from.
- 36:15Speaker 1: There's a problem, guys. SI sucks at math. Yeah, yeah,
- 36:19Speaker 1: I don't.
- 36:21Speaker 2: I this isn't really math though, right she did call
- 36:25Speaker 2: it math cryptogram.
- 36:27Speaker 6: Oh yeah, I'm just so not good at cryptograms often
- 36:32Speaker 6: chuntering crypto, or.
- 36:33Speaker 3: Maybe she just knows that they occasionally pop up in
- 36:36Speaker 3: Survivor and she's like, please don't include it this time.
- 36:39Speaker 2: She doesn't like all him puzzles, or he's like, cryptogram,
- 36:42Speaker 2: I had it like that every time crypto.
- 36:44Speaker 1: Maybe she was worried about this specific thing.
- 36:48Speaker 7: I always come across these crypto gams. So I do
- 36:52Speaker 7: love that she keeps saying, like Jeff, She'll just be like.
- 36:55Speaker 3: Oh no, Jeff, because she I wasn't like I wasn't
- 37:00Speaker 3: being mean by saying she sucks at math.
- 37:02Speaker 2: She said she sucks at math. She said, Jeff, I
- 37:05Speaker 2: suck it math incredible.
- 37:08Speaker 3: So she she struggles, she panics, doesn't sit on it
- 37:13Speaker 3: for very long. Once she actually started thinking about it,
- 37:15Speaker 3: she started to figure it out. But originally she panics
- 37:18Speaker 3: and gets our boy Cedric, And this is the moment
- 37:21Speaker 3: of the episode where Cedric shines. Yeah he does, because
- 37:24Speaker 3: he immediately went to work read eagle hawk.
- 37:28Speaker 2: Red eagle hawk. She starts running around like a maniac
- 37:34Speaker 2: like looking at all these things guy remembering what the
- 37:38Speaker 2: color is of the animal, and red eagle hawk. She's
- 37:42Speaker 2: just read egal hawk.
- 37:44Speaker 6: I wouldn't be good at that, trying to remember the
- 37:47Speaker 6: five different colors eight animals. I have a terrible memory.
- 37:50Speaker 6: So it's like credit to her for remembering it. But
- 37:53Speaker 6: then I got yelling, what's.
- 38:00Speaker 2: An eagle hawk? You know? I am so glad she
- 38:03Speaker 2: figured out just bird. Yeah, she was. She was complicating it. Oh,
- 38:09Speaker 2: so the fourth letter of read hawk is W no care.
- 38:16Speaker 3: She gets that part and she goes to Cedric and
- 38:19Speaker 3: she's got the letters. And I got this before she did,
- 38:23Speaker 3: before she even you know, gave it to Cedric. But
- 38:25Speaker 3: Cedric immediately gets it too.
- 38:27Speaker 7: You know you did what with with the help of
- 38:30Speaker 7: running in the sands, Like he's no spelling be you know,
- 38:32Speaker 7: writing behind on the back of the thing, and it was.
- 38:35Speaker 6: Listen, listen, Yeah, I like how they figured out the letters.
- 38:38Speaker 6: And I was like, l I s t e in
- 38:40Speaker 6: and she immediately goes that doesn't spell a word. That
- 38:42Speaker 6: doesn't spell a word.
- 38:43Speaker 7: And then Cedric was like, l I listen, it's a cryptogram, dude.
- 38:49Speaker 7: Those are like, there can't the cryptograms.
- 38:51Speaker 3: There's always a few moments where I'm like, Okay, if
- 38:53Speaker 3: I was on Survivor for this bit, I would have
- 38:56Speaker 3: been happy about it because listen, like, if that's the
- 38:59Speaker 3: puzzle you get, and hey, she she listened to that voice.
- 39:02Speaker 2: That she did, and she listened to Cedric saying the
- 39:04Speaker 2: word listen, and now Si has the beware advantage. Incredible,
- 39:09Speaker 2: She gets it and she holds on it. She's very excited.
- 39:12Speaker 2: She cries, I think.
- 39:14Speaker 3: Cy gets a strong villain edit in this episode, but
- 39:19Speaker 3: she's a very good player.
- 39:20Speaker 7: She's such a it's such an I wouldn't even say
- 39:21Speaker 7: it's necessarily a villain edit so much as it like
- 39:27Speaker 7: she's just a really strong personality.
- 39:30Speaker 6: So it's different than like somebody who is so full
- 39:33Speaker 6: of themselves. I'm not gonna talk about them or like,
- 39:41Speaker 6: but like, she just has a really strong personality, which
- 39:45Speaker 6: is why it was like having such a hard time
- 39:47Speaker 6: with her during this episode, because sometimes the brashness in
- 39:51Speaker 6: what she says things is like jarring, But then like
- 39:55Speaker 6: that same strong personality is what makes her so endearing.
- 39:58Speaker 2: Like Rad eagle Hawk, Red eagle Hawk. She she just
- 40:02Speaker 2: has a lot of beef with some of the other places,
- 40:04Speaker 2: including Mary. Yeah, she calls Mary a hoochie mama. Oh
- 40:08Speaker 2: I don't remember that, Yeah, she calls it.
- 40:10Speaker 3: She called she said these hoochie mamas and Mary step
- 40:12Speaker 3: Mary referenced it, if you want to read.
- 40:14Speaker 6: That, And that's what I wanted to bring up. And
- 40:16Speaker 6: so Mary actually references this. It's her in a confessional
- 40:20Speaker 6: with her bangs in her sweater and she goes me
- 40:23Speaker 6: wondering if I got called a hoochie mama, or caps
- 40:26Speaker 6: because my bangs were seawording too hard, or because my
- 40:32Speaker 6: drip was too impenetrable.
- 40:34Speaker 2: Yeah, the drip was strong.
- 40:35Speaker 3: It was a maclate I'd say both. Yeah, her bangs
- 40:38Speaker 3: were seawording her. Uh, I think so was her Eagles sweater? Yeah,
- 40:43Speaker 3: read go Jalen Hurts. So she did have a good
- 40:49Speaker 3: moment though, she because she broke down after she found it.
- 40:52Speaker 3: I don't know if you call it a good moment,
- 40:53Speaker 3: but she she was in tears after she found the
- 40:55Speaker 3: idol and she gave a shout out to all the
- 40:58Speaker 3: women in her life.
- 40:58Speaker 2: I find her endearing that I don't. I don't think
- 41:01Speaker 2: she's my big villain.
- 41:03Speaker 3: Okay, but speaking of looking for idol's star apparently was
- 41:08Speaker 3: looking for one and disappeared for an hour and did
- 41:11Speaker 3: not find it.
- 41:12Speaker 2: Star, I like I wanted here for stars like star,
- 41:17Speaker 2: you can't, you can't.
- 41:20Speaker 3: Chase just had a tweet, guys, I have a really
- 41:22Speaker 3: important tweet. So there's a an account. Yeah, I guess
- 41:27Speaker 3: it's kind of news because there is an alert emoji
- 41:30Speaker 3: on it, an alarm emotion. So from Star Updates, Star Updates,
- 41:36Speaker 3: says Eva did not tell stars she had autism, and
- 41:40Speaker 3: then the graphic just says autism.
- 41:42Speaker 6: Hold on, wait, so there is an account devoted to
- 41:45Speaker 6: Star Yes and updates we have and on like every
- 41:49Speaker 6: update and then, because of course we had to get
- 41:51Speaker 6: the update that Eva told Joe but Eva did not
- 41:54Speaker 6: tell Star.
- 41:54Speaker 2: So so Star Updates let us know that. Wait, why
- 41:58Speaker 2: does she have an update account? I don't love that graphic.
- 42:01Speaker 2: I'll say that with just her picture of her, picture
- 42:04Speaker 2: of her, and it just Star Updates do better. I
- 42:09Speaker 2: think Star.
- 42:09Speaker 3: Updates crushed it with that gras crazy, that's crazy. It
- 42:14Speaker 3: got over seven hundred likes on Star up Uh. One
- 42:18Speaker 3: more update from Star Updates. Give me a little spoiler.
- 42:22Speaker 3: Star to meet will not be the person voted out
- 42:25Speaker 3: of Survivor. Star Updates tweeted that after they're.
- 42:28Speaker 6: Not giving us any updates about the show, the star
- 42:32Speaker 6: who wasn't in the episode that much, Chase.
- 42:34Speaker 2: I think you need to give Star Updates some credit.
- 42:37Speaker 3: Yeah, something happens on the show and maybe some people
- 42:41Speaker 3: really care about start to think about.
- 42:44Speaker 2: You got another thing on the Purple Beach.
- 42:48Speaker 3: The alliance we talked about earlier, the California Girls Alliance
- 42:51Speaker 3: between Shaheen, Thomas and Joe.
- 42:54Speaker 2: That's the title they gave themselves, We're Not Girls. Yeah,
- 43:00Speaker 2: should we make a parody of the songs. Let's write
- 43:03Speaker 2: that down.
- 43:03Speaker 1: Yeah, Khaki shorts and Survivor buffs on top.
- 43:07Speaker 2: There you go. That's you were really close to.
- 43:11Speaker 3: We could work shop it a little bit, you know,
- 43:12Speaker 3: once we stopped recording. Yeah, think, yeah, yeah, work on
- 43:15Speaker 3: that for a couple hours, a couple hours at least.
- 43:17Speaker 2: So the Katie Perry.
- 43:18Speaker 3: Alliance, I love it. Thomas did mention here that Bianca
- 43:22Speaker 3: is his number one. So he's got this California girl.
- 43:26Speaker 2: You know who's not in the California Girls Alliance?
- 43:29Speaker 6: Yeah, because she's not from California, but she can't Well,
- 43:31Speaker 6: so here's the thing is she's his day one. But
- 43:34Speaker 6: by this time it was day three? So did anyone
- 43:38Speaker 6: else find it weird that we didn't get any evening
- 43:41Speaker 6: moments in this episode?
- 43:43Speaker 2: Interesting if you weren't paying attention to the lower third
- 43:47Speaker 2: telling you that it's day two days.
- 43:48Speaker 6: I think it was all the same day. I didn't
- 43:51Speaker 6: even notice that we didn't get to see the first
- 43:53Speaker 6: night or can you.
- 43:54Speaker 2: Make a night time updates? Just no nighttime in this episode,
- 44:01Speaker 2: did sleep updates start started? Sleep tag start updates? I'm
- 44:05Speaker 2: trying to.
- 44:05Speaker 3: Think of like because last season when we got night updates,
- 44:08Speaker 3: it was typically like what it was Andy being weird
- 44:12Speaker 3: to Rachel in the middle of the night, and then
- 44:14Speaker 3: it was like, you know, right after tribal, Like the
- 44:17Speaker 3: next episode, you get the tribal fallout at.
- 44:21Speaker 7: Night, Rachel crawling around in the dirts, hiding behind bushes,
- 44:25Speaker 7: stuff like interesting.
- 44:26Speaker 2: I guess just nothing interesting happened at night.
- 44:29Speaker 6: Maybe I'm watching the old seasons and there's a lot
- 44:32Speaker 6: of night time stars. Well, you gotta remember to Fiji
- 44:35Speaker 6: is probably at a place in the world where it
- 44:36Speaker 6: doesn't get dark early, right, I don't know, because when
- 44:40Speaker 6: you're in when they were in, like a tribal happens
- 44:43Speaker 6: at night.
- 44:44Speaker 2: Yeah, it's true. Stupid. I tried to be I tried
- 44:47Speaker 2: to be smart. Dude, I need to stick to my lane.
- 44:50Speaker 2: Doesn't have night night updates. It's like, what is it, Alaska?
- 44:55Speaker 2: It doesn't get.
- 44:55Speaker 3: Dark and the Chase said he needs to stick to
- 44:58Speaker 3: his lane. Let's talk about Chase's movies. Camilla won us
- 45:02Speaker 3: all over by saying her favorite movies holes digging.
- 45:06Speaker 2: Up in hand I got no respect because I'm an
- 45:14Speaker 2: got my shovel shoes full of sand. Check out the
- 45:17Speaker 2: tag the name's caveman. Dang dude, I forgot.
- 45:20Speaker 6: I forgot that Brandon has a Disney con dcom original
- 45:24Speaker 6: podcast DC guy.
- 45:26Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right, but he did play on Disney a lot.
- 45:28Speaker 2: Yeah that's what I watched. Yeah, no doubt. Holes. I'm
- 45:31Speaker 2: gonna be real. I respect that as a favorite movie,
- 45:33Speaker 2: great movie, hardcore. Do you think that who was that
- 45:36Speaker 2: that was freaking out? Was it? Was?
- 45:38Speaker 3: It?
- 45:38Speaker 2: Kyle? Was Kyle? Do you believe him?
- 45:42Speaker 1: I believe him?
- 45:42Speaker 2: You believe they were three times when he was like no,
- 45:46Speaker 2: what do you think? All three? Yes?
- 45:48Speaker 3: And okay, they put him on the same tribe because
- 45:50Speaker 3: they identified the the shared heritage thing.
- 45:53Speaker 6: Do you think that they like they Okay, that's interesting,
- 45:56Speaker 6: that's interesting. I think I think maybe he was exaggerating
- 45:59Speaker 6: a little bit.
- 46:00Speaker 2: Well what was the ship?
- 46:01Speaker 5: Like?
- 46:01Speaker 2: They're both they both love the movie holes, right, well
- 46:03Speaker 2: they both love Holes. They departed? Yeah, and so Holes
- 46:07Speaker 2: the movie departed? Was there another movie?
- 46:10Speaker 6: I think I want to say there was a song
- 46:12Speaker 6: or something and then when they're over by the water,
- 46:14Speaker 6: what what's the heritage thing.
- 46:16Speaker 3: They both Guyanese Guyanese. Kyle is half Guyanese. I think
- 46:20Speaker 3: Camilla is fulled Guyanese Guyanese.
- 46:24Speaker 2: Just one of the bros. No, not Boo. We have
- 46:29Speaker 2: Boo sound drop, I have trombone.
- 46:36Speaker 3: The charity, you know, once we're on the Orange Tribe.
- 46:41Speaker 3: After so we're still in the Orange Tribe. I forgot
- 46:45Speaker 3: which one Kyle and one episode in.
- 46:49Speaker 2: The tribe names. By the way, I'd really appreciate it.
- 46:51Speaker 3: We're not doing it because after the season, nobody's going
- 46:55Speaker 3: to know what the tribe names were, so we're calling
- 46:57Speaker 3: it Orange. Uh So, speaking of the Orange Charity throws
- 47:00Speaker 3: Kyle's name out there to Camilla, but because of their
- 47:03Speaker 3: shared heritage and love of the movie's holes in the Departed,
- 47:07Speaker 3: Camilla is not having it, and she goes and tells
- 47:09Speaker 3: everybody and she describes it as throwing Charity under the
- 47:12Speaker 3: bus and reversing that bus over and over.
- 47:15Speaker 6: It was a really intense thing to say, I don't
- 47:20Speaker 6: think how, I don't think she knows how Psycho she
- 47:22Speaker 6: said yeah, and saying that.
- 47:24Speaker 2: I like cal over and reverse and over and reverse.
- 47:28Speaker 2: It was a really really intensing to.
- 47:30Speaker 3: Say, I don't think maybe Camilla is not quite as
- 47:33Speaker 3: bratt as Mary, but I think Camilla's got some bratt
- 47:35Speaker 3: in her too.
- 47:36Speaker 2: You said it, brother, that's right, California girls.
- 47:39Speaker 3: Next stuff, so we I mean, that was a lot
- 47:42Speaker 3: of stuff before the Immunity Challenge Community Challenge.
- 47:45Speaker 2: Now Chase walk us through this this Community Challenge.
- 47:49Speaker 6: This is one of those immunity challenges where it's not
- 47:51Speaker 6: anything truly unique. They just it is so complicated. There
- 47:55Speaker 6: were so many stages to this one. You had to
- 47:57Speaker 6: run over a giant net. Then you had to crawl
- 47:59Speaker 6: through a skin net tube, which was like a solo
- 48:02Speaker 6: tube of netting. Then you had to untie a wooden staff,
- 48:06Speaker 6: use that staff to hit a tribal mask that was
- 48:10Speaker 6: made out of wood, that drops a box. That box smashes.
- 48:14Speaker 6: Inside of that box is a key. You use that
- 48:16Speaker 6: key to unlock a giant wooden crate that you and
- 48:19Speaker 6: your tribe mates have to shove sticks into to pick
- 48:22Speaker 6: it up. Get it on the track. Now you're pushing
- 48:24Speaker 6: it across the track while going over hay hurdles. And
- 48:27Speaker 6: then to top it all off, there is a puzzle.
- 48:30Speaker 2: Yeah. Jonathan called that middle part the arc of the
- 48:32Speaker 2: Covenant Challenge. And that was a great name for it.
- 48:36Speaker 2: Not to give credit to Jonathan for anything, but it
- 48:38Speaker 2: was a great comparison.
- 48:39Speaker 4: Shout out the Arc of the Covenant, shout out Shout
- 48:41Speaker 4: out Indiana Jones, shout out Boy, shout out God, shut
- 48:48Speaker 4: my Guy, shout out Jeff Probs.
- 48:51Speaker 6: So yeah, the whole challenge tight, tight challenge everyone. And
- 48:56Speaker 6: that's another thing I noticed. There's not a single tribe
- 48:58Speaker 6: that seems to be really like carrying away with all
- 49:01Speaker 6: of the physical challenge.
- 49:03Speaker 2: Yeah, they all.
- 49:04Speaker 6: Seem pretty fair, all seem pretty even until we get
- 49:07Speaker 6: to the puzzle at the end, and that is when
- 49:09Speaker 6: Stephanie really drops the ball.
- 49:12Speaker 2: She doesn't roam it, but no, pretty bad. She volunteers
- 49:17Speaker 2: herself for the puzzle. She did way better than Rome.
- 49:22Speaker 2: But we talk about blowing a puzzle, just.
- 49:24Speaker 3: Know it's from not as bad as Rome is the
- 49:27Speaker 3: worst you could possibly do, and Ozzie is the best
- 49:30Speaker 3: you could possibly you don't you guys don't know? But
- 49:33Speaker 3: does yeah love o If Jonathan was here, he wouldn't
- 49:36Speaker 3: know who was. Stephanie volunteers through the puzzle and then
- 49:42Speaker 3: really drops the ball.
- 49:43Speaker 2: She was doing so good.
- 49:45Speaker 7: Yeah, and then like I don't really know what, Like,
- 49:47Speaker 7: I guess she wasn't putting the puzzle securely enough or
- 49:50Speaker 7: making sure it was flushed because it started like sticking
- 49:53Speaker 7: out art, which was making it hard to put new
- 49:54Speaker 7: pieces in.
- 49:55Speaker 2: It was a whole who else was working on it
- 49:57Speaker 2: with her? There was one other person, remember Vin. It
- 50:00Speaker 2: might have been Kevin. I can't remember their name though,
- 50:02Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure it was Kevin, because I was just
- 50:04Speaker 2: blown away that Kevin was doing something else. He's doing everything.
- 50:08Speaker 2: He's hurt, shoulder, be damned, doesn't matter. He's the hero
- 50:12Speaker 2: of this season. Do you want to know something else?
- 50:13Speaker 2: I noticed?
- 50:14Speaker 7: And I think I'm just keeping a close eye on
- 50:16Speaker 7: Cedric because of Greenville. Yeah, but he seemed like he
- 50:19Speaker 7: was really struggling, struggling with the physical stuff and in
- 50:22Speaker 7: this one, which he was struggling in the first challenge
- 50:25Speaker 7: as well. So something to keep an eye on of
- 50:27Speaker 7: the people that I kind of noticed falling behind or whatever.
- 50:31Speaker 2: Cedric was that guy in both challenges, which is stuff.
- 50:33Speaker 3: At least he's locked in with that alliance. That's true,
- 50:36Speaker 3: that is true, locked up. But since Stephanie costs them
- 50:40Speaker 3: the challenge, that means that Voula is that how you
- 50:42Speaker 3: pronounce it. VI is the one going to tribal tonight,
- 50:47Speaker 3: and I was scared for Mary. I I didn't think
- 50:50Speaker 3: the heat was on Mary, but I was scared.
- 50:52Speaker 7: Yes, because we know Cy has the immunity idol and
- 50:57Speaker 7: so she's gonna be safe. And that means that if
- 51:01Speaker 7: you're like you're on size team, you're going to be
- 51:04Speaker 7: you're gonna be in a good place, which leaves Stephanie
- 51:07Speaker 7: and Mary because they think that Pizza and Kevin are
- 51:12Speaker 7: on their side, So that leaves Stephanie and Mary. So
- 51:15Speaker 7: thank god it was Stephanie doing the puzzle and not Mary,
- 51:18Speaker 7: or else we might be sitting here today.
- 51:21Speaker 2: And we may be spent too much on the ten
- 51:23Speaker 2: dollars cameo may have been too much. She's the first
- 51:25Speaker 2: one out, Yeah, so.
- 51:27Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, really thrilled that Mary's going to stick
- 51:30Speaker 3: around a little bit, but she needs to get some alliances.
- 51:33Speaker 7: And I think she was, well she thinks, you know,
- 51:35Speaker 7: obviously Kevin is her day one, one of her day ones,
- 51:38Speaker 7: and so I'm interested to see how she kind of
- 51:41Speaker 7: shakes things up. Obviously, she's got to change her game
- 51:44Speaker 7: plan now, and that's not unheard of, especially in the
- 51:46Speaker 7: new era, if you will kind of you've got to adapt,
- 51:49Speaker 7: and you've got to be willing to adapt with other people.
- 51:51Speaker 2: So I think Mary can figure out a way out
- 51:54Speaker 2: of this hole. But it's going to be interesting.
- 51:55Speaker 6: But the tribal, even though spoilers Stephanie does go home,
- 51:59Speaker 6: it was still a already it was a heated.
- 52:03Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, and that was because of Ci.
- 52:05Speaker 3: And immediately once they got back from the challenge, Cy
- 52:08Speaker 3: and Cedric were like, we like, we hate steph she
- 52:11Speaker 3: bombed that puzzle.
- 52:12Speaker 2: She's got to get out of here. Yeah. And then
- 52:14Speaker 2: we go to tribal and guys, the domes, the dome,
- 52:19Speaker 2: you know what I was thinking, It looks like maybe
- 52:21Speaker 2: a war had happened. Yeah, maybe maybe a war had happened.
- 52:25Speaker 2: I can't It was just like magical colors.
- 52:27Speaker 6: You know, you know what I like.
- 52:30Speaker 2: I don't know if you guys were able to did
- 52:31Speaker 2: you guys see the really big one with the really
- 52:33Speaker 2: magical thot that's where the leader lives. That just happened.
- 52:42Speaker 2: That just happened naturally.
- 52:43Speaker 6: I will say, if we didn't know about the whole
- 52:47Speaker 6: Jeff talking about that, I don't think I would have
- 52:49Speaker 6: noticed anything that.
- 52:51Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm glad I sent that to Jonathan to read
- 52:55Speaker 3: because it's it's really fun that we got the whole
- 52:58Speaker 3: backstory about Igadeza. And I want to say I'm serious
- 53:01Speaker 3: about this. The domes are magical, domes are great.
- 53:05Speaker 7: I will say what I probably what probably would have
- 53:07Speaker 7: happened if I would have seen him and gone, uh yeah,
- 53:10Speaker 7: that would.
- 53:10Speaker 2: Probably and that's not nothing. Yeah that's cool, that's not cool.
- 53:13Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 53:14Speaker 2: Yeah, we would have never known that a war happened.
- 53:18Speaker 3: We would have never known that their intentions we don't want,
- 53:20Speaker 3: We couldn't possibly.
- 53:21Speaker 6: Yeah, I would say that after I was like really
- 53:24Speaker 6: looking at the set stuff, it did look like a
- 53:28Speaker 6: warlike because there was like some like broken pieces of
- 53:31Speaker 6: like old tools and stuff in the corridor.
- 53:33Speaker 2: There you go, maybe there was a war, Maybe a
- 53:38Speaker 2: bomb could have gone out. There could have just been
- 53:39Speaker 2: pizza and thing he's got away from them. It's hard
- 53:42Speaker 2: to say.
- 53:42Speaker 3: Yeah, So, like we said, if we didn't know about it,
- 53:45Speaker 3: we wouldn't have been able to tell that this is
- 53:47Speaker 3: supposed to be a fake civilization and it's called But
- 53:53Speaker 3: I hope, I know, I know they're not going to
- 53:55Speaker 3: do this, but I kind of hope they say Agadeza
- 53:57Speaker 3: at some point or like Jeff gives some kind of
- 53:59Speaker 3: mentioned it, but it.
- 54:01Speaker 2: Does actually means even more sky sky wait vula. Okay.
- 54:07Speaker 3: Yeah, so we've got the Moon Tribe Tribal Council, which
- 54:10Speaker 3: is fitting because you know they do it at nighttime
- 54:13Speaker 3: and they.
- 54:13Speaker 2: Talks a lot. Dark in Fiji doesn't get it, and
- 54:17Speaker 2: actually only every three days, which is really convenient for
- 54:20Speaker 2: the show. Wow. So they've just been doing color grading. Yeah,
- 54:27Speaker 2: the sun, isn't it one of those.
- 54:32Speaker 3: I don't even know where Fuji Fiji, Fuji, mister fuji,
- 54:37Speaker 3: some powder.
- 54:38Speaker 2: I got a couple of fuji. App you want to
- 54:41Speaker 2: come over all right?
- 54:42Speaker 6: Uh, that's we're at the tribal and and speaking of
- 54:46Speaker 6: moons and stars, lots of horses, lots of horse.
- 54:50Speaker 2: I didn't see common great segue, Brandon. We I didn't
- 54:53Speaker 2: see it coming either, and I was rolling my eyes hard.
- 54:56Speaker 2: The air is an air sign. I was outside of
- 55:02Speaker 2: my element there. I know about uh Sagittarius because apparently
- 55:06Speaker 2: that's what I am. But they're both air signs. Can
- 55:09Speaker 2: we guess each other's uh? Yeah, well you said your
- 55:13Speaker 2: what's yours? Brand?
- 55:14Speaker 3: Let me guess I have nothing to get like to
- 55:17Speaker 3: base my guess off. I don't know what they all either.
- 55:19Speaker 3: I don't even know all of them. Hey, what's the
- 55:21Speaker 3: one that makes you the happiest to hear the name cancer?
- 55:24Speaker 2: My gosh, that was quick. That's like the only one
- 55:28Speaker 2: I know. It was too quick. Leo Leo. Okay, I'm
- 55:32Speaker 2: a capricornus reminds me of Unicorn. That is okay.
- 55:35Speaker 3: Now I see what you were saying, and I've got
- 55:42Speaker 3: my sag Cardarius.
- 55:45Speaker 2: Joke I was. I was like, Oh, that's awesome, bro,
- 55:48Speaker 2: I'm glad I'm not the only one that made a
- 55:49Speaker 2: dum joke. I do have to say, I felt like
- 55:54Speaker 2: Stephanie could have if she wasn't kind of getting hold
- 56:00Speaker 2: into the.
- 56:00Speaker 6: Whole argument with cy, if she just kind of played
- 56:03Speaker 6: it cool, didn't get I.
- 56:05Speaker 2: Think she could have.
- 56:07Speaker 7: I really felt like Kevin and Pizza went into this
- 56:11Speaker 7: kind of not sure and it was kind of like, hey,
- 56:14Speaker 7: let's just and then make like I don't know, I
- 56:16Speaker 7: don't know this for sure, but I think they kind
- 56:18Speaker 7: of went in and we're kind of like, let's just
- 56:19Speaker 7: kind of see how it plays out, And based off
- 56:21Speaker 7: of the way that they were talking, I think they
- 56:23Speaker 7: just took sign I disagree.
- 56:25Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know if that was fine. Good, we'll
- 56:28Speaker 2: start a podcast.
- 56:29Speaker 3: Well, I mean, respectfully, I had the numbers going in respectfully,
- 56:33Speaker 3: she had.
- 56:33Speaker 2: The core four. I think Stephanie did exactly what she
- 56:37Speaker 2: needed to do.
- 56:37Speaker 3: Really, she really kept egging Cy on to the point
- 56:41Speaker 3: where Sy was coming across extremely harsh side. I mean,
- 56:45Speaker 3: she mentioned the astrology thing and it wasn't antagonistic towards anybody,
- 56:49Speaker 3: but Cy hears air sign and she makes a face
- 56:53Speaker 3: that was so noticeable that Jeff was like, hey, Si,
- 56:56Speaker 3: you just made a face and she.
- 56:58Speaker 6: Says, I got to work on that, and he was like, no, me,
- 57:01Speaker 6: and she proceeds to say I don't get along with
- 57:03Speaker 6: other air signs.
- 57:05Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 57:05Speaker 3: But then not only that, she's like, you know what,
- 57:07Speaker 3: I'm here to play the game, and if you're just
- 57:10Speaker 3: looking up at the sky like that, I have I
- 57:13Speaker 3: want no part of that. I'm here to play Survivor.
- 57:15Speaker 3: And then Stephanie is like, whoa she took a issue
- 57:18Speaker 3: with that.
- 57:18Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, and then it ended with saying like something
- 57:23Speaker 6: like really harsh, like that's enough of the stars.
- 57:28Speaker 2: Yes. The the point I'm trying to get at is.
- 57:31Speaker 7: I felt like you could tell that Stephanie was scrambling,
- 57:36Speaker 7: and I felt pretty confident that she's gonna play her
- 57:39Speaker 7: shot in the dark.
- 57:40Speaker 6: Which flows off any sort of chance that we have
- 57:43Speaker 6: to then vote sye out. So any chance that she
- 57:47Speaker 6: had if she did have those numbers, you can see
- 57:50Speaker 6: that she's scrambling. Yeah, And so for me, if I
- 57:54Speaker 6: see that, I'm going you know what, I'm gonna play
- 57:56Speaker 6: it safe and I'm gonna say with that that's what
- 57:59Speaker 6: I mean.
- 58:00Speaker 3: And she she's forfeiting her vote, or at least there
- 58:02Speaker 3: was a five out of six chance that she's forfeiting
- 58:05Speaker 3: her vote in that scenario, which is not good for
- 58:07Speaker 3: the workout.
- 58:07Speaker 2: I still haven't seen it work out. I know I'm
- 58:09Speaker 2: gonna eventually one day you will here and it'll be amazing.
- 58:12Speaker 2: Here's what I'll say.
- 58:14Speaker 3: When she was playing or Shot in the Dark, in
- 58:16Speaker 3: my head, I was like, if this works, best first
- 58:20Speaker 3: episode of a season of all time, Yeah, because it
- 58:23Speaker 3: was so intense.
- 58:25Speaker 2: It was like, she is going home.
- 58:27Speaker 6: Yeah, shot in the Dark. If it would have worked,
- 58:30Speaker 6: that would have been amazing. That would have been insane.
- 58:33Speaker 2: But it didn't.
- 58:36Speaker 6: Can I ask you a quick question, Yeah, if if
- 58:38Speaker 6: it did hit Yeah, since he hadn't started reading off
- 58:42Speaker 6: votes yet, could say have then played her idol and
- 58:45Speaker 6: that is legal interesting.
- 58:46Speaker 2: But maybe I don't know for sure, but maybe she
- 58:49Speaker 2: has to play it.
- 58:50Speaker 6: Before it's like did the before the scroll the scroll
- 58:54Speaker 6: opens and it shows whether she's safe or not.
- 58:57Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 58:57Speaker 3: But no, no, because Rachel was gonna play it in
- 58:59Speaker 3: the look around at everybody and then decides. So I
- 59:02Speaker 3: guess as long as he's not reading out that actual
- 59:05Speaker 3: votes for the tribal and.
- 59:07Speaker 2: You can play it.
- 59:08Speaker 6: Interesting, that would have been cool because then that would
- 59:11Speaker 6: have been a revote, and then I think by the rules,
- 59:13Speaker 6: they wouldn't have been able to vote for either sy or.
- 59:18Speaker 2: Your face right, and then Mary would have Mary.
- 59:20Speaker 3: You just fantasy booked the fantastic ending. But let's talk
- 59:23Speaker 3: about the real one. Stuf and he gets voted out.
- 59:25Speaker 3: She is the first person voted out. And if it
- 59:28Speaker 3: had to happen to anybody, I'm glad it was multiple
- 59:31Speaker 3: hundred millions of dollars in business deals.
- 59:34Speaker 1: Woman, Oh, I forgot about that. Yeah, she doesn't need it.
- 59:38Speaker 2: She doesn't need it. She also gave us one snort.
- 59:41Speaker 7: I don't know if you guys caught that she snorted
- 59:44Speaker 7: earlier when they maroons, she snorted as something that somebody
- 59:47Speaker 7: said in the way that she never snorts again, but.
- 59:49Speaker 2: I missed that it was. It was a subtle snort. See,
- 59:51Speaker 2: that's why you're here, brand. You got a snort. Count one.
- 59:55Speaker 2: We'll see where. I don't know if anybody else snorts,
- 59:57Speaker 2: might ask.
- 59:58Speaker 3: Oh and another thing to mention real quick, that's how
- 1:00:00Speaker 3: you do it. Count We got two, two, we.
- 1:00:02Speaker 2: Got too in this episode, were going to get a third,
- 1:00:04Speaker 2: but we're going to be tracking. There was one that
- 1:00:06Speaker 2: it felt close, but it was no cigar to to this,
- 1:00:09Speaker 2: that's how what if? So I know he uh notoriously
- 1:00:17Speaker 2: does not wear wear an ear peer piece ear piece,
- 1:00:22Speaker 2: but what if he was about to say it and
- 1:00:24Speaker 2: the person was like too many? And then that's why
- 1:00:30Speaker 2: he cuts it short. This was a really great first
- 1:00:32Speaker 2: episode of Survivor.
- 1:00:33Speaker 6: I think it sets up a lot of fun things
- 1:00:35Speaker 6: to happen, and I'm excited to see next week and
- 1:00:38Speaker 6: then we get the draft.
- 1:00:39Speaker 3: Yeah, so let's get some overall thoughts, like now that
- 1:00:42Speaker 3: we've talked about the entire episode, Yeah, how did you feel?
- 1:00:45Speaker 3: I think it was phenomenal first episode. I think it
- 1:00:48Speaker 3: could have been one of the best of all time
- 1:00:49Speaker 3: if that shot in the dark work. I have some
- 1:00:53Speaker 3: concerns because I am really attached to a lot of
- 1:00:55Speaker 3: these players.
- 1:00:56Speaker 2: Already, especially because of our pregame.
- 1:00:58Speaker 6: Y and so, like, I'm really worried because right now
- 1:01:01Speaker 6: it's four versus one against Mary and her tribe. I
- 1:01:06Speaker 6: can only imagine they probably won't do great in the
- 1:01:08Speaker 6: challenge again next week. But so I'm really concerned about Mary.
- 1:01:13Speaker 6: But I'm also rooting for a lot of people, which
- 1:01:15Speaker 6: is odd because I usually don't have a bunch of
- 1:01:17Speaker 6: people i'm rooting for yet. But I'm rooting for Kevin
- 1:01:21Speaker 6: and Joe and Eva, even for Eva hardcore dude. All
- 1:01:27Speaker 6: There's so many really likable people, and there's people I
- 1:01:30Speaker 6: cannot stand. Like sigh, I think I like the whole
- 1:01:33Speaker 6: Purple tribe. Yeah, I yeah, great, big Purple fan. I
- 1:01:36Speaker 6: think the thing I'm to your point about Mary.
- 1:01:39Speaker 7: The thing I'm concerned about is I think it's pretty
- 1:01:41Speaker 7: clear that that is the weakest tribe. And you know,
- 1:01:45Speaker 7: you never want to see a tribe this early go
- 1:01:48Speaker 7: back to back tribals. I wouldn't be surprised if we
- 1:01:50Speaker 7: see it though, and that's what Mary is going to
- 1:01:52Speaker 7: be in trouble. So I'm really interested to see what
- 1:01:54Speaker 7: Mary does early on next next episode.
- 1:01:56Speaker 3: Yeah, but you know what, at the end of the day,
- 1:01:58Speaker 3: I think she's going to be a safe because he's
- 1:02:00Speaker 3: a three six five party girlup up in that, just
- 1:02:03Speaker 3: like Charlie XCX.
- 1:02:05Speaker 2: And he lost me on that one too. Reference Oh good,
- 1:02:10Speaker 2: big brat fan. I just know that her bangs are
- 1:02:13Speaker 2: always serving and her drip is immaculate. That's right. Uh,
- 1:02:18Speaker 2: let's do the MVP of the week. Okay, let's start
- 1:02:20Speaker 2: with brand Who's your MVP of the week?
- 1:02:24Speaker 7: I think I am going to go with Kyle. And
- 1:02:27Speaker 7: here's why I'm gonna go with Kyle. I I think
- 1:02:30Speaker 7: that Kyle did a couple of things really interestingly. One,
- 1:02:34Speaker 7: when he goofed up the glass, he didn't sit around,
- 1:02:37Speaker 7: and that means it's showing me he's thinking long long term,
- 1:02:40Speaker 7: which I think is always a good thing to see
- 1:02:43Speaker 7: with a player.
- 1:02:43Speaker 2: He's staying long term.
- 1:02:44Speaker 6: He's thinking, I got to develop this relationship right here,
- 1:02:47Speaker 6: and that'll, uh, that'll you know, help me out later on.
- 1:02:51Speaker 6: And then I think that he has a lot of
