  Speaker 5: And hearts, hearts, hearts, hearts, hearts. Guys, it's the twice
• 0:42
  Speaker 5: annual preseason extravaganza.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: This is the second annual?
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: We've only done it twice? No, we do it for 50.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: We do it like twice a year.
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: Twice a year.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: Oh.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: So does biannual.
• 0:53
  Speaker 6: Biannual.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: Every two years or twice a year?
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: People be using biannual and biweekly and bi.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: Because it's biweekly twice a week or every other week.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: I think it can go either way.
• 1:07
  Speaker 4: But if it's every other week, then you could just
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: say bimonthly if you're using it that way because every
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: other week is twice a month.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: But how about.
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: Fuck.
• 1:13
  Speaker 7: Fuck.
• 1:14
  Speaker 5: Anyways, it's the season 51 preseason extravaganza.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: I'm joined by Chase Bridges.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: That's me.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: And Brandon Gray.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: Yo, what's up?
• 1:24
  Speaker 8: Where's Jorn?
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: You don't have to.
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: Oh.
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: What happened?
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: Oh, baby. I shot him.
• 1:29
  Speaker 9: Oh, baby.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: Let's not bring it up.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: Well, I think people might have missed it.
• 1:32
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:33
  Speaker 5: If you missed it, the previous episode is titled Jonathan's
• 1:36
  Speaker 5: Big Announcement. So go listen to that.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: Petey shot him.
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: That's what you just... That's the gist of it.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: T-L-D-R?
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: Petey shot him. He's dead now.
• 1:47
  Speaker 5: That's the too long, didn't read. Anyway, let's address the
• 1:51
  Speaker 5: Mike Bloom sized elephant in the room.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Let's start with that. That's two hard F words for
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: me so far.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: Dude, it's because I'm jazzed, man.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Bran, I almost called you Jan.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: Jan!
• 2:04
  Speaker 5: I'm being a real Jan right now, in your defense.
• 2:07
  Speaker 5: You don't usually say the F word on air. That's
• 2:09
  Speaker 5: more of an off-air.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: Thing for you.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: That's true. I like to keep some semblance of professionalism. Oh, okay.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: So what are you saying about me? I think it
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: was clear.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: I think Bran's really stressed out.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: I'm not stressed!
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, what happened to you? You have a different energy today.
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: PD was late today.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: So while we were waiting for PD, me and Brant
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: were just chilling.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: Just chilling. Casual.
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: The second PD walked through that door, Brant acted as
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: if he had been shot up with cocaine.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: He brought an energy I didn't appreciate.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: I didn't even howl this time.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, PD came in nice and calm. He didn't make
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: any demands.
• 2:43
  Speaker 9: No.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: I mean, there's still no table, but we're working on it.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: Can I be honest about it? Please, please be honest.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: I'm nervous about the draft this year. Explain.
• 2:50
  Speaker 7: Explain.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: I'm nervous because we have so little information to go
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: off of.
• 2:54
  Speaker 5: Yeah, we typically watch two episodes. And then for season 50,
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: we didn't need to because we know them all.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: Right, so this is the first time we're really truly
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: going blind from a gameplay perspective. We have information about
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: these players, what they're like, if they're married, if they
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: like the summer weather. Stuff like that.
• 3:12
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Not really helpful when trying to decide. So our job
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: this year is a little bit harder, I think, when
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: it comes to drafting. Definitely. I'm a little bit more
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: swimming in the deep end, and I don't know how
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: to swim. Because I'm sorry.
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: If you get to watch the first two episodes of
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: the season, you get an idea of who to look for.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: Even just a little bit of an idea. Even on
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: the seasons with three tribes, and one of them is.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: Not in the episode at all?
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, not in the episode. At least you get to
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: see them at challenges or something. Or when Jeff calls
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: their name and says, you over there in the black shirt,
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: what's your story?
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: And then we get to go, would they introduce the
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: person with the black shirt if he's not going to be?
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: So we have nothing aside from little clips, a couple
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: of Q & A things, and like two previews. And
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: the running for that.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: Usually we would have these 30-minute interviews from Mike Bloom.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: Where there were so many good nuggets in there.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: Rest in peace, Mike. He's still alive. They just chose
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: not to fly him out.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: I want to be like Mike. I'm sure Mike is
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: being very professional about this situation. I'd be pissed.
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: I'll just say this for Mike. He's not asking. He
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: probably doesn't want us to do this.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: No, he doesn't want to do this at all. What
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: the fuck, CBS?
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: He doesn't even really know us that well.
• 4:25
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: No, it's a shame.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: In fact, he'll probably send us a cease and desist
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: for even talking about him so much.
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: But no, it's a shame that he didn't get to
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: do the interviews and they need to.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: Bring him back.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: Dalton Ross didn't get to do them either.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: No one.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: No one got to do them.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: Just somebody at CBS.
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: It would have been so funny if they refused to
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: let anyone do preseason interviews except for Barstool Sports.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: That would have been hilarious.
• 4:46
  Speaker 9: I love it.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: Of that, like, CBS Survivor, they can't win with us
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: because it's like, they should do a thing where they, like,
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: introduce the cast and make it a big thing. They
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: do that, but then they screw it all up by
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: taking away the other stuff that we love. Us asking
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: for an additional thing is not us saying we don't
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: like the stuff that we were getting.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: Right, we want both.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: We just think it would be a fun way to
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: announce the contestants, which it was.
• 5:13
  Speaker 7: It was awesome.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: We loved it.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was awesome.
• 5:15
  Speaker 9: But that.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: That's all we have and it's not enough. It's not enough.
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: Luckily for you guys, at least when it comes to–
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: because we assign– we spin a wheel.
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: And then each of us is assigned a group of
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: castaways that we have to look into.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: That's right. Luckily for you guys, I found a foolproof
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: method to learn everything that we need to know about
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: my group at least. Okay.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: Well, I don't have that. Well, I guess you guys
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: just aren't as good at picking.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Do you want to tell us what it is? No,
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: you'll find out when we start.
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: It seems like me and Bran aren't... So should we
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: start with one of Chase's people?
• 5:46
  Speaker 7: We can.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: Are we getting started? Because I'm going to have to
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: make a costume change.
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: Why?
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: Okay, let's get started.
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: Why would you have to make a costume change for.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: Us to do this preview? Do you want us to vamp,
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: or are we going to edit this out?
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: We can vamp. It won't take long. There's something else
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: I was going to bring up that I forgot.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: Are you going to.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: What is that?
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's a nice jacket.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess it's a nice jacket.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: We're on YouTube now, by the way, if you want
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: to see Chase's jacket.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: What is this?
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Is that a lace bandana?
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: A lace bandana?
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: Is that like lingerie? Did you take that from Elizabeth?
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: Is that it?
• 6:29
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: You know, sometimes when most of the time, I would
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: say like 99% of the time when someone says they're
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: going to do a costume change, you don't, it doesn't
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: also take an explanation for what the heck that is.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: This is the specific case. You did a costume change.
• 6:50
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: And I have more questions.
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: What, what are your questions? Is this something to do
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: with the draft?
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: So basically guys, I have found enlightenment. I've found that
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: I don't want to understand the surface level attributes about
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: these players. I want to dig deeper. And so I'm
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: going to find out who these people are spiritually. So
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: you made a bunch of shit up and you're like,
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: I have all the information.
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no, no. I didn't make up anything.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: This is all based in science. And did.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: You learn about astrology?
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: Maybe man, because what I will say is this season
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: is a different me because I've found Enlightenment. Enlightenment.
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: I'm not going to crash out over anything anymore. Is
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: this because Jonathan left?
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: I don't know, man. I will say a weight lifted
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: off my shoulders.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: You're not going to crash out?
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: I'm not going to crash out anymore.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: Not one time.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: What would you say?
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: Not one time this entire season you're going to crash out?
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: No.
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: What is there to crash out about? I feel like
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: there's been a weight lifted from my shoulders. What would
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: you say?
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: About 250?
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: 265?
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: Weight lifted from my shoulders?
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: I don't know. It's changed over the last few months.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: He is a nutritionist.
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah. So.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll start with Chase.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: Let's start with Ori? Yeah, let's do it. Let's start
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: with Ori.
• 8:03
  Speaker 9: Entry to score a touchdown on offense and defense in
• 8:06
  Speaker 9: the same game. Football's been really good to me, no complaints.
• 8:08
  Speaker 9: I still miss it a little bit. It's the competitive fire,
• 8:10
  Speaker 9: get gritty. Being out here in the mud and the sand, feels.
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: Like old times. Feels like old times.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: He's gritty.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, let me... Actually, I needed a little bit more help.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: Let me grab my crystals.
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: Jeez. Jeez.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: Here, I'm just going to put my crystals.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: Those are just rocks from your driveway. No, these are
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: my crystals. I bought them.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: They were very expensive crystals.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: Did you infuse it with moon water?
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: This one's quartz. This one is gravel. This one is graphite.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: And this one is titanium.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: Okay, so Chase.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: Titanium!
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: Exactly. Chase texts me and he's like, um, yeah, I
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: had no issues researching the players. I got a lot
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: of information and I was like, wonderful. I'm glad he's
• 8:57
  Speaker 5: taking this seriously.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: Ori, Ori Jean Charles.
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: He's a Capricorn, which means that his key traits are
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: he's driven. He's practical.
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: He's ambitious. He's reliable and he's hardworking. And this seems
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: to go along pretty well with his bio that we got,
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: where he says that he puts his family first and
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: he works his ass off.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: He even transferred from a.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: Good college where he was playing football to a worse
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: college so that he could be closer to his mom
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: when she needed him. Oh, that's sweet.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: He's also a Earth Tiger.
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: What?
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: Chinese Zodiac. Earth Tiger.
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: Which means that he is balanced, realistic, courageous, generous, and
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: he is quietly powerful with strong leadership potential.
• 9:42
  Speaker 6: Wow.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: Ori, I think, should be what.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: All of us are looking for in a Survivor player,
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: especially an Earth Tiger. Did you do this with ChatGPT?
• 9:53
  Speaker 7: No, no, no.
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: This was hard research.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: I don't use AI. I'm not that guy that we lost.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: You're not that guy.
• 10:00
  Speaker 6: AI.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: I'm not that guy AI.
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: Jonathan, he does run. He asked Claude if he needs
• 10:05
  Speaker 5: to go get groceries.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: Right, right, right. That's the kind of person Jonathan is.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: That's why we had to kill him.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: But no, I did all that research on my own.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: I will say that.
• 10:14
  Speaker 5: You know, balance does check out because I think you
• 10:16
  Speaker 5: have to have a lot of balance if you're going
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: to score on offense and defense in the same game.
• 10:20
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: Which is awesome. This is my concern with him. Okay.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: With the football thing. It's a, on one hand, inspiring story. Yes.
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: Leaving the better college to go and be closer to
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: home to help out his mom. Mm-hmm. But is he,
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: that's not, that's not killer mentality.
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: Oh, you're saying it would be better if he didn't
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: care about his mother. Okay, but to be a football player,
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: you have to have a certain mentality.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: Right, you have to have that killer mentality, OJ Simpson.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: Well, I like Ori. You like Ori.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: You guys just don't have the crystals, so you don't know.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: Ori is one of those players that I feel like
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: I'm going to potentially have a different opinion on once
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: I see him play. That's the difficulty of this. Right now,
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: I'm not very high on him.
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: But he automatically is a big threat because of his
• 11:12
  Speaker 5: size and athletic ability.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: If the open era is anything like the new era,
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: then he could be okay. But if the open era
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: is anything like the old era... then he could be
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: going home pretty quickly. But I will say this is,
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: you know, we saw Q, who was a football player,
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: you know, Burdette fumbles.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: But then he was so bad at challenges that it
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: didn't really matter. That's a good point. I feel like
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: this guy's going to be good.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: Ori's a bigger dude than Q was.
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: I'm really impressed with Ori. Also, remember in that video
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: that we watched that CBS put out introducing them all?
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: He talked about how he wants to team up with
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: a female contestant because they typically win Survivor. To me,
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: that shows that he's not only going to be a
• 11:51
  Speaker 4: physical threat. He knows how Survivor works. So I really
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: like him. That's why I draft women all the time.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. Well, thank you, Chase. I'll go next. Okay.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: This is Lewis.
• 12:04
  Speaker 6: Everyone loves a cheeky Irish person. We have great crack.
• 12:09
  Speaker 6: We have the best banter. I married my beautiful Puerto
• 12:12
  Speaker 6: Rican wife, and we're living on a tiny little school
• 12:15
  Speaker 6: bus together on our farm.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: And I fire him. That's Lewis Kelly.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: He's so sexy.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: As you can tell, Dublin, Ireland. He has that accent.
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: He's currently living in Puerto Rico. I love that he
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: said cheeky in it because that's also one of the
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: words that he used to describe himself in this online profile. Cheeky, devilish, charming.
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: I love how much Lewis loves the game of Survivor.
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: He talks about how basically applying and being on this
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: show is a chance for him. to live the American dream.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: And he said, you miss 100% of the shots that
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: you don't take. Even if I don't know what's going on,
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: I'm going to put myself forward and give it a go.
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: He's just, he's like, I'm going to go for it.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: I don't have to have everything figured out. Yeah.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: It sounds like he's living the dream already. Does he
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: need another dream to live?
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: That's a good question. That's a good question.
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: He moved to Puerto Rico. didn't speak Spanish, found a wife,
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: lives in a school bus.
• 13:15
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's everybody's dream.
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: That's everybody's dream bus.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: That's my dream. You want to live in a school bus?
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: That is your dream. 100% it is. This is an
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: interesting thing. When talking about Survivor players that he identifies with,
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: he says that he identifies with Venus. Wow.
• 13:32
  Speaker 7: Wow.
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: You know, I also identify with Venus and Mars and Saturn.
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: And those planets are helping me figure out who's going
• 13:40
  Speaker 4: to win this season.
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 13:41
  Speaker 5: I was a huge fan of Venus, and I was
• 13:43
  Speaker 5: upset that she didn't get a call for 50 over some.
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: Of the people that they brought. So that's a win
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: for you. Yeah.
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: Venus was messy.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: Venus was messy. This is what he said about Venus.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: She just got out there trying to represent and handle
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: the chaos as best she can. Mm-hmm. Well, I guess.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: But I also love, then he says, I also have
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: a feeling that I'm a better, cooler version of Tyson.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: That's cool. I like that.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: That's also an insane thing to say about yourself.
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: To say that you're cooler than the coolest guy that's
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: ever played Survivor.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: I can't wait to hear what Tyson says about that.
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: He'll probably like it a lot.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: I'm sure he will.
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: I did a little bit of, I watched some videos
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: on all the players. And one thing that I really
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: liked about this guy was, We all watched videos. We
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: did it together. It was a couple weeks ago. It's
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: the first thing we did this season.
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: No, no, no.
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: Sorry.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: I watched some YouTube videos of Survivor YouTubers.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: Oh, I see.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: Saying their opinions on the players.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: Oh, interesting.
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: And one thing that I learned about this fella is
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: that he said that he doesn't even really care if
• 14:44
  Speaker 4: he wins the money. He just wants to go out
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: there and cause chaos. Oh, well, that hurts his draft stock.
• 14:49
  Speaker 4: But I think that could be good for him, though.
• 14:51
  Speaker 4: It's also kind of hard to talk to you with
• 14:53
  Speaker 4: lingerie on your face. It's not lingerie, guys. Put it
• 14:56
  Speaker 4: in front of the camera and show the people. You
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: have a dirty mind, man. You see a black fabric
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: with holes in it and you immediately go to lingerie.
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: This is a spiritual bandana that I got from an
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: Etsy witch.
• 15:14
  Speaker 5: I saw lots of spiritual bandanas at the Ariana Grande concert.
• 15:18
  Speaker 4: Well, that's because Ariana is like a mother witch, dude.
• 15:21
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: Fuck, dude.
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: I wish I had a little table here to put
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: my crystals.
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: Anything else on Lewis? Lewis's favorite hobby is lying. I
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: found that to be interesting. I really like that. But
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: this is what he said, and I, to the point
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: of not really wanting to, not feeling like he needs
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: to win. When asked why he's going to be the
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: sole survivor, he says, I probably won't be the sole survivor.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: Okay, so draft him last?
• 15:47
  Speaker 9: No, no.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: I think that's going to be helpful.
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: But a big reason is he doesn't think that just
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: because of who he is. He's this fun guy. He's
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: got the accent. No one's going to let him go
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: to the final tribal. But he says, if I do,
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: the game is as good as won.
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that it's actually going to be in
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: his benefit if he's this crazy, chaotic character that's fun-loving
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: and weird.
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: I think he acknowledges and can realize that he's pretty
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: likable right away, just given his accent. He kind of
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: has this leg up on people, and I think it
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: is going to make it challenging for him. He might
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: go far, but I don't know if he's going to
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: make it to fine.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: Top of the morning in Fiji.
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: That's exactly right. That's exactly right.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: I think I want to start with Tanan.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: Okay, I can do that for you.
• 16:38
  Speaker 10: And having a big smile on my face helps people
• 16:42
  Speaker 10: open up to me.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: How I navigate through life is just making genuine connections.
• 16:47
  Speaker 5: So Tanan is 24 years old from Dallas, Fort Worth, Texas.
• 16:53
  Speaker 5: Tanan's interest, I mean, Tanan's intention in this game is
• 16:56
  Speaker 5: to play the most authentic cutthroat game possible.
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I like that.
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: So she came out the gate in her video saying
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: that she can be freaking weird. She loves farts. And
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: that might be an issue for Chase. Now that he's enlightened.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: Fucking weirdo.
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: Hold on. I thought you were enlightened. Oh, I mean,
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: never mind.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: I love all of God's children. Yeah, Chase is a
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: bit of a prude.
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: Especially Tanan. Tanan is a medical student. She is a
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: horned frog. Hey, PD's a horned frog. Every time he
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: sees a spiritual bandana, he thinks it's lingerie.
• 17:29
  Speaker 7: Am I right?
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: A horned frog is somebody who attends TCU.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: That is Terra Masseuse State University. Yes, that's right.
• 17:39
  Speaker 5: So Survivor released a video with three fun facts about
• 17:42
  Speaker 5: all the contestants.
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: Oh, nice.
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: And Tanon's were, at one point, she had more than
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: 12 birds.
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: Dang.
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: She is scuba certified.
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: Of course. Okay.
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: And she has over 100 cousins.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: Wow. The scuba certified, I feel like, is the only
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: thing that is potentially relevant to the game. Well, the cousins.
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: How is it going to help?
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: You have to deal with the chaos of a hundred cousins.
• 18:05
  Speaker 9: That's true.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: I guess you don't know a lot of names. Thanksgiving
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: must be a fucking nightmare.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: Know how to facilitate conversations between all those people. Her
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: being comfortable in the water, I think, could be helpful.
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: She's a little thing. She says it. She's small. But
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: she's great in the water. That could be helpful. Okay.
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: She's a killer. She's a killer.
• 18:24
  Speaker 5: And they asked, why will you be sole survivor? And
• 18:27
  Speaker 5: she said, coming in at five feet strong, I will
• 18:29
  Speaker 5: be lurking incognitoly.
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: Until it's time to strike.
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: I do like that a lot.
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: Incognitoly.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: I've never heard that. I like when people make up words.
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: So she's going to use her size or lack thereof
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: to potentially skate by. Yes. Interesting. I like that.
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: And I've, She was the only person who had some
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: interesting Instagram posts. Oh, okay. Here's one of her with
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: a tiger.
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: It's a tiger. She's just leaning up against that tiger.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: She's just chilling with that tiger. And then, Bran, you're
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: going to love this.
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 19:00
  Speaker 5: This is her and her family at Christmas, all of
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: them with Dallas Maverick jerseys.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: All 100 of them?
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: I do like that she likes Christmas and basketball. I'm
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: not a Mavs fan, but I'll take what I can get.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: I thought you were a magic fan.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: It's kind of his whole thing. I can't believe you're
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: a bad enough friend to not miss it.
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: The M-A.
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: You know, it starts with M-A.
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: Maverick magic. I'm a mad fan. And blue? Blue.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's a fan of blue. Bluey.
• 19:28
  Speaker 5: But the caption for that was, it's beginning to Luke
• 19:31
  Speaker 5: a lot like Christmas.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: That's good, because of Luke. He's not a fan anymore.
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: Because of Luke Keekly. Yeah, not anymore.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: And also, I found a poem that she wrote.
• 19:38
  Speaker 7: Okay.
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: This is on.
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: the TCU MD journal entries website.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: Lord, you did a deep dive brother. I did not
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: get to that point of any of these players. So.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: You won't look me in the eye and I can't
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: help but wonder why your gaze drifts to the floor
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: as if you're not sure you're wanted anymore. All I
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: want is your medical history. Oh, yet you keep yourself
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: a mystery. Silence is all I receive. What is it
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: that you grieve? Is it sorrow? Is it shame? A
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: past too dark to ever name? Is it just homeless
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: shelter you seek? This is a clinic. Sorry to be bleak.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: Is the grasp of the law you escaped? I see
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: your arms are a bit purple and misshaped. Is it
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: the shadow of addiction that follows and lurks?
• 20:31
  Speaker 4: Don't worry.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: I won't share your quirks.
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: I'm snapping. The poem is titled History. All right. Yeah,
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: I like that. I like that, girl.
• 20:42
  Speaker 5: Yep, so in closing, in her words, she hates losing,
• 20:45
  Speaker 5: she takes things very personally, and she's very competitive.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the crystals are telling me that her poem, very enlightened.
• 20:52
  Speaker 11: All right.
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: She could go all the way. Very good.
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: So the crystals tell you who's enlightened and who's not.
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: Is Ori enlightened? Oh, yeah, big time.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: Is Louis enlightened?
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: Big time enlightened.
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: So our first three contestants are all enlightened.
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
• 21:03
  Speaker 8: Wow.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: All right, very good. Let's see if our fourth contestant is. Chase,
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: who do we have next?
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: Oh, thanks for asking.
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: Ladies and gentlemen, next one in the Enlightened Squad, we
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: have Aliyah. Aliyah.
• 21:16
  Speaker 8: Aliyah?
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: Aliyah.
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: Independent woman who was raised by both independent women. I'm
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: not here to find myself.
• 21:21
  Speaker 4: I'm here to win the title.
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: I like that drop. She's not here to find herself.
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: Is it Aaliyah?
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure, yeah.
• 21:29
  Speaker 4: Aaliyah is a Taurus, which means that she's grounded. I
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: thought you said Taurus.
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: I'm like, okay, she's a Taurus. She travels? She's just
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: making a quick stop in Fiji. Travel vlogger?
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: She's practical.
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: She's loyal. And she's sensual.
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: Now, I know what you're thinking. Whoa, what does that mean? Well,
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: I looked deeper into it.
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: Because I was like, yo, Zodiac website, what the fuck
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: does that mean? And it means you appreciate comfort, good food,
• 21:53
  Speaker 4: and fine aesthetics. And I think that that's important in
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: Survivor because what are you competing for in the challenges?
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: Food. Comfort. Fine aesthetics.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: That's what I call Jeff.
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: That's what sensual means? Yeah, that's what sensual means to
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: the Zodiac people. She's a metal snake. I mean, you
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: are wearing lingerie, so I'll take your word for it.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: It's not lingerie. It is spiritual bandana.
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: Anyone knows about sensual?
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: God almighty. Sensual bandana. She's a metal snake, Chinese Zodiac.
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: So she's intelligent, sharp, determined, highly strategic.
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: All things that are needed. And metal snakes are known
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: for being lucid, independent, and capable of simplifying complex concepts.
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: Isn't the main character of Metal Gear Solid named Snake? Dude, probably.
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: Even more reason that Aaliyah, Enlightened.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: Do you have any real information on her?
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: Nope.
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: I couldn't even find her last name for a little while.
• 22:48
  Speaker 8: Really?
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: That probably speaks more on my research abilities. You could
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: just go to Parade. Well, that was the thing.
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: The Parade article only had Aaliyah. Oh, really? Unless I
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: read the wrong article. Maybe that's why I sent it
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: to you as Aaliyah.
• 23:00
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: Or as just Aaliyah.
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I couldn't find it. I'm going to pull back
• 23:06
  Speaker 4: the curtain a little bit here. I couldn't even find
• 23:08
  Speaker 4: Instagram pages or Twitter accounts for a lot of mine.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: They all have LinkedIn, though.
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: It's Aaliyah Paglia. Guys, I'm not doing a joke. No way.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: That's her name. Aaliyah Paglia.
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: Aaliyah Paglia.
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: That's Amelia Bedelia's cousin.
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: Enlightened.
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: So Bran's pulling up some actual information on her. I
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: do know her birthday because I figured out her zodiac.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 23:30
  Speaker 8: Uh, yeah.
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: And okay.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: I can't lie either. I did have my wife do
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: a lot of this research.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: So you did nothing.
• 23:37
  Speaker 9: No, no, no, no.
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: I did all the research on the Zodiac stuff, but I,
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: she did find their birthdays for me, but you didn't like, okay, dude, I'm,
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: I'm telling you, pulling back the curtain a little bit.
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: I couldn't find Instagram pages for a lot of mine.
• 23:48
  Speaker 4: I couldn't find Twitter accounts.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: They had LinkedIn. And then I don't have a LinkedIn account,
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: so I couldn't even see all of their stuff.
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: Chase is giving Jonathan. What are you, Jonathan?
• 23:57
  Speaker 5: And that's the spirit of Jonathan has taken over. You
• 23:59
  Speaker 5: literally just said your wife is doing all the work
• 24:01
  Speaker 5: for you.
• 24:02
  Speaker 4: Don't ever insult me by calling me that man's name.
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: I am enlightened. He looked up the Zodiacs.
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: That's the whole thing. He did some hard work, too.
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: You guys are... I'm enlightened. That wasn't a full crash out,
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: but it was a little crash.
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: You guys are very wise in your skepticism of me.
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: And I appreciate pushing back on that. However, I think
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: I know what I'm doing because I'm enlightened and I'm
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: the one with the crystals. So why don't we just
• 24:33
  Speaker 4: move on?
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: All right. Here's Lania.
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: I write an adult toy business with my brother.
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: That's all you need to know.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: That's all I put in there.
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: That is all you need to know about Linnea. Linnea is,
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: as mentioned, an entrepreneur owning a lingerie shop.
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: Is that where you got that?
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: Got what?
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: The lingerie on your head. You mean the spiritual bandana?
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: Did you go to Linnea's?
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: Guys, I cannot stress to you enough.
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: It is not lingerie.
• 25:05
  Speaker 7: All right.
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: She's jersey, bread, and... Buttered? Buttered. She was born there
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: and lives there is what I'm trying to say. Born
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: and bred. Yeah, born and bred. Why does Linnea want
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: to be on Survivor? Well, she says, this life, this
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: limited time on Earth is all I am certain of.
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: With that, I seek to experience as much as possible.
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: To which I say, Linnea, relax. Like, you sound like
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: Chase over here, given like this.
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: She's enlightened.
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: She's enlightened. She's enlightened. She understands.
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: She's also enlightened.
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: Ironically, her pet peeve is when people ask me my
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: zodiac sign.
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: Oh, she's no longer enlightened.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: To which I say, preach. This would be the first
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: person that's not enlightened. I thought she was, but it
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: turns out she's an idiot.
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: So how much do your crystals know if you just
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: change your mind on if she's enlightened or not? Well,
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: I hadn't consulted with the crystals yet.
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: Oh, okay.
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: I was just being... I was giving her the benefit
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: of the doubt because I'm enlightened and I... support all people.
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: All right. Fair enough.
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: Um, she says that one of her experiences that has
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: helped her prepare for the game is studying and working
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: in Washington, D.C., something that reminded me of what's his
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: name from a couple of seasons ago, Mr. Washington, DC,
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: you know, I'm talking about and how he thought that
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: that was going to Alex, Alex, the DC intern or whatever.
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: I think we called him DC Alex.
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: DC Alex. We thought that that was really going to
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: come into play and was going to help him out
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: a lot. And it didn't, didn't help. So I don't know.
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: I don't know what to do with that. Something to
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: look out for when it comes to Linnea is that
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: she has a laughing problem. She's had countless uncontrollable laughing
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: attacks at funerals, churches, classes, during a presentation, and potentially
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: at a tribal council. Do you think we will see
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: a Linnea laughing attack at a tribal council?
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: The crystals are telling me it's likely. I hope so,
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: but I can relate to that. We've all had a
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: moment where.
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: Can't get past at a funeral though?
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 27:10
  Speaker 5: One of the hardest times I've ever laughed was at
• 27:12
  Speaker 5: a funeral because they kept fucking up the flag. The
• 27:17
  Speaker 5: family member that passed away was in the military and
• 27:21
  Speaker 5: they just kept fucking it up and having to try
• 27:24
  Speaker 5: to redo it.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: And I took everything I had not to laugh out loud.
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: That's great.
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: Saturn agrees.
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: Saturn agrees. She brags about being skilled at reading people,
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: persuading people, and being a leader that doesn't come off
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: as threatening. So a bit of a mixed bag, I think,
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: when it comes to Linnea. Some things that I really
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: like about her. Some things that are a little bit
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: red flaggy to me. So take all of that in.
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: Is the sex shop with the brother one of the
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: red flags?
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: No.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't say that's the greenest flag.
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: I think it's honestly, can I be honest with you?
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: I think it actually can help because it shows that
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: she's kind of comfortable being uncomfortable. Like it is a
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: thing that people are uncomfortable talking about. And I want
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: to bring.
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: It up as much as possible.
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: I think that she is like that could play into
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: her advantage.
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: Can we look up the shop and the Google reviews?
• 28:22
  Speaker 12: Sure.
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: I could try to find that. I didn't do that,
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: but I can try to do that. You didn't even
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: do anything, dude. While PD is going, telling us about Rob. Oh, God.
• 28:34
  Speaker 11: Patriots receiver Stephon Diggs on a yacht in Florida with
• 28:38
  Speaker 11: a pink substance. Should the Pats keep him or get
• 28:42
  Speaker 11: rid of him? Let's talk about it next.
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: You were tuned in to the Rob Show. You know,
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: it's the Rob Show.
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: Oh!
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: What in the world? It's the Rob Show.
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: It's the Rob Show. Rob is a podcaster? A YouTuber?
• 29:01
  Speaker 5: He did some episodes on YouTube. That was the last
• 29:04
  Speaker 5: episode of the Rob Show that I could find.
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: I want to know about Stefan Diggs' Pink Substance. Did
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: you not know about that?
• 29:09
  Speaker 8: No, what happened?
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: He was on a yacht.
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: And there was a pink substance.
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: What's the pink substance? Silly putty.
• 29:14
  Speaker 5: It was in the off season. He was partying. I
• 29:17
  Speaker 5: don't know what the drug was. I don't know enough
• 29:19
  Speaker 5: about drugs to know if pink is a normal car.
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: It was like some fancy designer drug. It's like, you
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: know when Walter White makes blue crystal meth? This was pink.
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: By Jesse Pinkman. Pinkman went on his own. But it
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: ended up not mattering.
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: Stefan Diggs played for the Patriots anyway. Because that was
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: a while ago.
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a while ago. Sure.
• 29:41
  Speaker 5: Anyway, so Rob Antonson, who I will be referring to
• 29:44
  Speaker 5: as Ant-Man. That clip was from The Real Rob Show,
• 29:48
  Speaker 5: which does not appear to be running anymore. But he
• 29:50
  Speaker 5: does like to post on IG and TikTok a good bit.
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: Great.
• 29:53
  Speaker 5: And I would like to read some quotes from Rob.
• 29:57
  Speaker 5: Once an 18-wheeler truck gets next to me, I don't
• 29:59
  Speaker 5: give a fuck what the speed limit is.
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: I gotta go. Seen too many Final Destination movies.
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: That is an enlightened take, I think.
• 30:06
  Speaker 5: When the police get behind me, I don't care if
• 30:08
  Speaker 5: the next turn is a lake. I'm going right in
• 30:10
  Speaker 5: that shit. A lot of driving takes here. A husband
• 30:14
  Speaker 5: is supposed to make his wife's panties wet, not her eyes.
• 30:17
  Speaker 5: A wife is supposed to make her husband's dick hard,
• 30:20
  Speaker 5: not his life.
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: Oh, no!
• 30:23
  Speaker 7: Rob!
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: Tag on, brother. Very enlightened takes all around, I think.
• 30:32
  Speaker 5: Rob is 40 years old. He works at the Logan
• 30:35
  Speaker 5: Airport in Boston.
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: Not anymore.
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: He has three kids, and he met his wife on
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: a cruise that he went on by himself.
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: Dang, a singles cruise. Yeah. Remember in the video, he's like,
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: I went on the cruise as a solo guy. Yeah.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: It's the Rob show. It's the Rob show.
• 30:51
  Speaker 5: Stefan digs with a pink substance. And the reason he's
• 30:55
  Speaker 5: playing Survivor is because he was watching with his six-year-old.
• 30:58
  Speaker 5: His six-year-old told him he couldn't do it. So basically
• 31:00
  Speaker 5: he's on Survivor as a fuck you to his kid.
• 31:03
  Speaker 5: He also loves destroying his kids at board games. So
• 31:06
  Speaker 5: this is a theme.
• 31:07
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 31:08
  Speaker 5: And then one thing that stuck out to me about
• 31:10
  Speaker 5: Rob in my extensive research is that one of his
• 31:13
  Speaker 5: biggest pet peeves is the.
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: Pouring of soda. Isn't that a weird one?
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: That's a weird one. I've never heard that as a
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: pet peeve before. That's a strange one. Shane Powers with
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: a white substance. A white substance rolled up on the beach.
• 31:27
  Speaker 5: What does this mean for the Patriots?
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: Shane Powers. Bill Belichick.
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: Okay, so it's not a vacation for Rob.
• 31:38
  Speaker 5: It's a business trip, and he's coming to win and
• 31:42
  Speaker 5: rip the million dollars out of everybody's hands. He says
• 31:44
  Speaker 5: that Survivor is just another day at the airport, basically.
• 31:47
  Speaker 5: He's like, the airport's so chaotic, I'm used to this.
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, who's TSA in that situation? Jeff. Guys, I believe
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: her shop has five stars with 517 reviews. Really? That's great.
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: What's the shop called?
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: Afterglow.
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: They have really great spiritual bandanas. Can we read one
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: of the reviews?
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: Oh, I just closed out. I will. I'll go back.
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: It's okay.
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: What's next? It's the Rob Show! No, we've got to
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: read one of the.
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: Linnea with a pink substance. The Rob Show. Let's see. Reviews.

• 32:36
  Speaker 3: Whoa.
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: She's there to help at any time.
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: Does that mean that she doesn't make it in Fiji
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: very long?
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: After going to two sketchy sex stores nearby that made
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: me uncomfortable, my girlfriend stumbled upon this store. It's very
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: clean and organized, and the owner is very sweet. Everybody's
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: talking about the owner.
• 32:54
  Speaker 5: Okay, so everybody judging Linnea. for her shop yeah it's
• 32:58
  Speaker 5: obviously very well run and people feel safe and comfortable there.

• 33:34
  Speaker 7: No.
• 33:36
  Speaker 3: No.

  Speaker 2: He'd be offended if you thought that he was.
• 33:38
  Speaker 3: No.
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: Here's Carter.
• 33:39
  Speaker 8: A year ago, I was sitting on the couch eating
• 33:42
  Speaker 8: cheesy puffs, and Survivor was on, and Jeff said.
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: All right, if you want to be on Survivor... You
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: got to apply.
• 33:49
  Speaker 8: I kind of licked my fingers off and said, I
• 33:51
  Speaker 8: think I can do that. The next day I filled
• 33:53
  Speaker 8: out a survey.
• 33:54
  Speaker 6: Here we are.
• 33:55
  Speaker 8: We're in Fiji, baby.
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: I cannot stress how much I love Carter.
• 33:58
  Speaker 4: He's going to become my favorite player, maybe of all
• 34:01
  Speaker 4: time if he's this funny all season. He feels like
• 34:03
  Speaker 4: a JT.
• 34:04
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: He has asked, what's one life experience that you feel
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: has prepared you for the game? And he goes, opened
• 34:11
  Speaker 4: up a snow cone truck, kind of put me in
• 34:13
  Speaker 4: a tropical mood.
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: Oh.
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: Wow. Great.
• 34:17
  Speaker 4: I love this guy, and it's no shock that just
• 34:21
  Speaker 4: like Aaliyah, he is a Taurus.
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: Grounded, loyal, sensual. which means that you appreciate comfort and beauty.
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: Remember he is.
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: Determined, courageous, confident, sharp minded with natural leadership qualities. And
• 34:36
  Speaker 4: I don't know if this is, uh, if this is
• 34:39
  Speaker 4: cheating or not, he's from Iowa. Several players from Iowa
• 34:43
  Speaker 4: have gone on, gone on to win the game or
• 34:46
  Speaker 4: go very far into the game. I didn't write down
• 34:48
  Speaker 4: their names.
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: Did you just see that somewhere?
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: And you're like, Oh no, I just, I, um, I found,
• 34:55
  Speaker 4: so his hometown made an article about, about him being
• 34:58
  Speaker 4: on Survivor, and then at the end of the article,
• 35:00
  Speaker 4: it just referenced there was four or five other Iowa
• 35:04
  Speaker 4: residents who've been on the game, and then it said
• 35:05
  Speaker 4: that they did really well.
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: Two winners from Idaho. Iowa. Oh, Iowa? Okay, that changes everything. Okay,
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: hold on.
• 35:14
  Speaker 5: That's like a Mavericks magic mix-up.
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: Let's go to the census.
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: Two winners from Iowa.
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: Denise Stapley and Sarah Lacina. Yeah, so it was two winners,
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: but then someone came in. Yeah, two women, of course.
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: Two winners, and then someone came in like, third and
• 35:28
  Speaker 4: then someone like two others made it to the jury
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: so Iowa okay Iowa survivor talent yeah it's it's.
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: The way that they do the midterm what is that
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: a called where they go and they also get in
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: corners and they the census is it a census I
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: don't know a census is the in the Bible with
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: Jesus No, they do a census to figure out how
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: many people are in the population. Yeah, that's not what
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: I'm talking about.
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: Oh, you're talking about the.
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: Caucus! Caucus. Caucus. You guys know about caucuses? I don't
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: know anything about that. In Iowa, they do a caucus
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: election where you go to a place and you, instead
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: of voting via a ballot, you go, people talk, and
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: you go to the corner or the section of the.
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: Room that you agree with. Oh, it's like one of
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: those YouTube videos.
• 36:14
  Speaker 4: So yeah, it's like a Jubilee. We should do, it's
• 36:16
  Speaker 4: like a Jubilee. We should do that instead of the
• 36:17
  Speaker 4: like tour college. We should do a Jubilee. The whole country.
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: Have we thought about going full Jubilee? I think it's
• 36:24
  Speaker 4: an enlightened take.
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: Let's do it.
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: Very good. It's a Carter. Enlightened.
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: Tell me about Carter. Anything else? No, that was pretty
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: much it. Good Lord.
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: I told you everything you need to know. He's a Taurus.
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: All I remember is I loved Carter. I think we
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: were all pretty high on Carter.
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: And our blind, our blind boy. All right.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: And PD was high on a pink substance.
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: On a pink substance. We need that drop too. Just
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: to say it.
• 36:50
  Speaker 4: Do you want to play it one more time?
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I do kind of want to. And I want
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: the song too.
• 36:56
  Speaker 11: Patriots receiver Stefan Diggs on a yacht in Florida with
• 37:00
  Speaker 11: a pink substance. Should the Pats keep him or get
• 37:04
  Speaker 11: rid of him? Let's talk about it next.
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: You were tuned in to the Rob Show.
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: Rob Show.
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: It's the Rob Show. Rob Show.
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: It's the Rob Show.
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: Pink substance. All right.
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: Let's find out about Kilby.
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: We're presented these larger than life characters that were not
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: afraid of being who they were. Even if that meant
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: people hated them. I love that you have to stand
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: out or you're caught. Yeah. Or you're caught. Or you're caught.
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: People have been making a lot of comparisons to Rizzo
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: with this guy.
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: I don't, I don't, I don't see that.
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: I don't see that. Rizzo is a quiet confidence.
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Kilby is 30. Kilby is bread and butter Canadian.
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: He's a game designer. And something of note, if you
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: all heard about Blood in the Clocktower, a lot of
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: survivor players go on and they do stuff with Rob
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: and stuff. And apparently, multiple people talked about how they
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: have played online Blood in the Clocktower with Kilby online.
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: and just say he's an amazing liar. So do with
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: that what you will, okay?
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: To be an amazing liar through like a Zoom show,
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: that's pretty impressive.
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: It feels like it. It feels like it would be impressive.
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: He'll be on the clock tower, man.
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: He'll be on the clock tower. You done with your bit?
• 38:26
  Speaker 7: No, no, no.
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: It just got warm.
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: Okay, fair enough.
• 38:28
  Speaker 4: And as an enlightened person, I just need to take
• 38:30
  Speaker 4: some self-care. Being on Survivor is his biggest dream. When
• 38:35
  Speaker 4: he was a kid, Survivor was his favorite show and
• 38:37
  Speaker 4: still is today. Survivor's given him so much.
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: He met his girlfriend playing fan made survivor and also
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: has met a ton of his friends through these like
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: survivor things.
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: So he's one of the people that's like just eat, sleep,
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: breathe survivor year round.
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: Survivor super fan. He is a big fan of board games. Obviously,
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: he creates games, but he also studied board games to
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: help him learn how to execute complex plans fast. Wow. Okay,
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: that was how he studied to get ready for Survivor,
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: and he feels like he's been training his entire life
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: for this moment. I like this. So he's good at puzzles, then.
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: In theory, he's good at puzzles. Um, he identifies with, uh,
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: Ben Katzman. He says I'm a good vibes guy. And
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: when 46. aired, I got 9,000 messages of people telling
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: me that I reminded them of Ben. We like Ben. 9,000 messages.
• 39:37
  Speaker 4: That feels like a lot. Is that one of his lies?
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: It might be one of his lies. His pet peeve
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: is when people tell you that wrestling is fake.
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: Oh, wow.
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: He's enlightened. He's enlightened, absolutely. And the reason why he
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: is going to win Survivor is because he can make
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: anyone love him and feel like the most special person
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: in the world. His social game is bomb, and he
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: has grit like no one else. He's a strategic, crazy,
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: mad scientist and can always think his way out of
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: any problem. Interesting.
• 40:11
  Speaker 6: Wow.
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: Kill me. Obviously, he's saying a lot of good things here.
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: I worry with players that are strategy forward, especially early on,
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: it can come back to bite them. We'll see what happens, though. Yeah,
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: good point. It's kind of like a Christian. It's like
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: the guy who's Christian before 50 had binders of plans
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: and strategies. And it's so obvious that it's like, well,
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: we can't take them.
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: You know, everybody has a plan until you get punched
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: in the face.
• 40:43
  Speaker 5: It's like how in football, the only thing you script
• 40:46
  Speaker 5: is the first drive because everything else is a response.
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: Sure. Well, actually, football is entirely scripted. I don't know
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: if you knew that, but.
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: So is wrestling.
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no. Don't tell Kilby.
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: You know it's fake, right? You're going to piss off Kilby.
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: You know wrestling's fake, right? PD's not enlightened. What's next?
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: It's PD's player, Anna.
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I'm excited for this drive.
• 41:06
  Speaker 3: I'm excited.
• 41:20
  Speaker 13: What are y'all doing out here?
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: Strawberry shortcake. Is that another drop for this season? What
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: are y'all doing out here? Whenever someone messes up the challenge.
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: I love it.
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: What are y'all doing out here?
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: I love it. What a beautiful voice. We need new drops.
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: We need new drops. That's Anna singing?
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's her as Strawberry Shortcake.
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: It's Petey's. Oh, sorry.
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: That is Anna Sinead. She is 34.
• 41:42
  Speaker 5: In her intro video, it took her a second to
• 41:44
  Speaker 5: remember that she was 34, which I found that pretty endearing.
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: And then she's from Toronto, Canada.
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: Another Canadian?
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we got some Canada representation. What are you doing?
• 41:57
  Speaker 4: Well, Bran got on to me for interrupting you, so
• 41:59
  Speaker 4: I'm looking at my Queen of Pentacles tarot card so
• 42:03
  Speaker 4: that I can find calm and enlightenment so I don't
• 42:05
  Speaker 4: crash out.
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: What is pentacles? Is it like tentacles?
• 42:11
  Speaker 7: No.
• 42:11
  Speaker 4: Dude, don't disrespect my stuff, okay?
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: Don't disrespect my stuff, okay? Okay.
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: Like squidward pentacles?
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: Continue. Hey, don't ever say that again. Don't ever say
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: that again. I'm just going to redo my whole bit.
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: What a beautiful voice.
• 42:30
  Speaker 5: That was Anna Sinead, the voice of Strawberry Shortcake. She's
• 42:33
  Speaker 5: from Toronto, Canada, which is awesome. Here's her IMDb buyout.
• 42:37
  Speaker 5: Anna Sinead is a Canadian actress, voice actress, and writer.
• 42:40
  Speaker 5: She's most known for her voice roles on many TV shows,
• 42:43
  Speaker 5: most notably the voice of Piper Willowbrook and Mysticon Striker
• 42:47
  Speaker 5: in Mysticons, and Cleo Bidet on Nickelodeon's Olipac. She's also
• 42:51
  Speaker 5: known for her voice work on Mia and Me and
• 42:54
  Speaker 5: The Magic School Bus. She's also known for.
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: Being an actress... Right on the Magic School Bus!
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: She's also known for being an actress on the upcoming
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: web series Blackout. And for some reason, it's not listed
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: in that bio, that she was in five episodes of
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: The Boys... And her character ends up getting shot in
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: the head, so rest in peace.
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: Nice.
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: That's awesome.
• 43:12
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm a big fan of her. I think she's
• 43:14
  Speaker 5: really cool. Yeah, Anna seems like a lot of fun.
• 43:17
  Speaker 5: Her mother was a big inspiration for her playing Survivor.
• 43:19
  Speaker 5: She watched Survivor with her family religiously, and she unfortunately
• 43:23
  Speaker 5: lost her mother to cancer in 2020 after an 18-year battle.
• 43:27
  Speaker 5: But she says her mom is her North Star.
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: Heck yeah.
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: And as far as how she wants to play the game,
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: she wants to get out there and trick people and
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: be devious. But she doesn't think anybody's going to see
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: it coming because she's cutesy.
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: I like that a lot. And you know what I like?
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: The North Star thing is the stars are brighter in
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: Fiji because there's like no town. I wonder if that'll
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: help her feel like even more constantly connected to her. Well,
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: as someone who's in tune with the stars, I think
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: that you're exactly right, Brian.
• 43:56
  Speaker 5: Okay, so she was asked, what's one life experience you
• 43:58
  Speaker 5: feel has prepared you for the game? And she said
• 44:00
  Speaker 5: being an actor means you have to have really thick skin.
• 44:03
  Speaker 5: She's had really down moments where she's always picked herself up.
• 44:06
  Speaker 5: And that's what she intends to do in Survivor.
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: All right, very good. Up next, Chase, it's you. Is
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: it Jenna? It can be. It's Jenna Dorr. Yeah, Jenna Dorr.
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: Jenna Dorr.
• 44:22
  Speaker 10: All of the wedding photography contracts I've sent out for
• 44:24
  Speaker 10: the last five years, I have included a survivor clause.
• 44:27
  Speaker 10: It literally says, I have every intention to photograph your wedding,
• 44:30
  Speaker 10: but if I achieve my lifelong dream of going on
• 44:33
  Speaker 10: the show Survivor, I'm not going to be there.
• 44:36
  Speaker 4: Honestly, really professional to include that. I feel like if
• 44:40
  Speaker 4: you know that there is even the slightest chance that
• 44:43
  Speaker 4: you are going to have to be whisked away and
• 44:45
  Speaker 4: be not available for someone's, like, biggest life moment, very
• 44:51
  Speaker 4: mature and professional of her to talk about that up front.
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: I think that she's really cool.
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: And there's no doubt. That she's really cool because just
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: like Carter and Aaliyah, she is a Taurus. That's three Tauruses.
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: And you're going to read us the same three attributes
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: of Tauruses.
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: Grounded.
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: Is she sensual?
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: Practical.
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: Patient.
• 45:10
  Speaker 4: Determined and reliable. She is actually a wood pig. Chinese zodiac, though,
• 45:15
  Speaker 4: which means that she is compassionate. generous, diligent, and deeply
• 45:19
  Speaker 4: kind hearted. Her family's nickname for her. No, not her.
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: She's a different kind of tourist, I guess.
• 45:25
  Speaker 4: Her family's nickname for her is in energy, which is
• 45:30
  Speaker 4: very interesting because her name does not start with an N.
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: What does that mean?
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 45:36
  Speaker 4: How was in energy spelled in the letter in energy
• 45:41
  Speaker 4: spelled E N E R G.
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: So like in, Oh, Oh, Oh, um, huh?
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I remember her explaining this. Oh, I don't. All right,
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: carry on.
• 45:55
  Speaker 4: I couldn't find her Instagram, but I did find a
• 45:58
  Speaker 4: person named Jenna Door on Instagram. And I went back
• 46:03
  Speaker 4: to April 1st, 2013, where this Jenna Door, again, not
• 46:07
  Speaker 4: the actual Jenna Door that we're talking about, got the
• 46:11
  Speaker 4: Cooking with Coolio five-star meals at a one-star price cookbook.
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: And the caption was, the ghetto gourmet, hashtag Coolio.
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: Wow. Okay.
• 46:21
  Speaker 4: So that is not the real Jenador. I need to
• 46:25
  Speaker 4: say that again. And that's everything on Jenador.
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: Thank you. Enlightened, very enlightened. Absolutely. All right, up next,
• 46:34
  Speaker 2: I have Sharonda.
• 46:39
  Speaker 3: My life has been for somebody else. I moved to
• 46:42
  Speaker 3: Haiti to help other people. I became a doctor to
• 46:44
  Speaker 3: help other people, like, I've always done that. And I
• 46:46
  Speaker 3: think now I just need to stop and I need
• 46:49
  Speaker 3: to do something for myself. I've been going through the
• 46:51
  Speaker 3: emotion for so long that I need something new.
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: That's Sharonda. Very motivational there in that clip. She's from Florida,
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: lives in Kentucky. She's giving introverts, I will say.
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: She seemed pretty soft-spoken.
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah. But contrary to what we both just said,
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: one of the words that she says to describe her
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: is charismatic. So you can be charismatic and be introverted.
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: I think that's possible.
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: Just like you, Bran.
• 47:24
  Speaker 11: Absolutely.
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: Thank you. Thank you for saying that. She wants to
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: be on Survivor to stop going through the motions of
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: life and meet the new unapologetic Sharonda. Okay. I don't
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: know how I feel about that. When people are like,
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: I'm going on Survivor to find myself, you know?
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: You want them to have already found themselves?
• 47:44
  Speaker 2: I want them to find themselves and then go for it,
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: using all the tools in the tool basket. You know,
• 47:51
  Speaker 2: tool baskets?
• 47:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 47:53
  Speaker 2: You know the saying? Previous player that she identifies with,
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: I did like this, is Ceri, who also is kind
• 48:01
  Speaker 2: of soft-spoken and you might not think is like this killer,
• 48:05
  Speaker 2: but is clearly. She is looking for an alliance partner
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: that is loyal but adaptable. And if plans change five
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: minutes before tribal, this person, your alliance member, must be
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: willing to go for it. Otherwise coming for you next.
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: So willing to turn perhaps on an Alliance member if
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: it doesn't go their way. And, uh, Sharonda thinks that
• 48:31
  Speaker 2: she's going to be the next soul survivor because life
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: has trained her for this very moment. There isn't one
• 48:37
  Speaker 2: thing that this game can throw me that life that
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: I haven't already endured. I was made for this.
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: Oh, she seems very confident.
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: She does seem confident. She's an OBGYN. She's a doctor. Okay. So, uh, Yeah,
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: I don't really know what to do with Sharonda, to
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: be honest with you.
• 48:56
  Speaker 5: Because what she's saying, it doesn't really match the energy
• 48:59
  Speaker 5: in the video that we got. So I'm curious to
• 49:02
  Speaker 5: see what she looks like on the beach. Yeah, she's
• 49:04
  Speaker 5: another one of those players that I am like, all.
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: Right, I'll see. I think I'll know a lot more
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: after episode one. But we'll see. We'll see what happens.
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: All right, PD, you're up next with Brady. Brady. Brady.
• 49:17
  Speaker 2: Is that Bodie? Is Bodie Brady?
• 49:22
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 49:22
  Speaker 3: Oh, okay.
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: I was like, what?
• 49:25
  Speaker 7: It said Bodie.
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: That's Brady.
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: That was his name in NXT.
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: Got it.
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: WWE doesn't let you have your real name. That was
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: a little wrestling bit. So that was Brady Booker cutting
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: a promo. He goes by Brady Booker now in NXT,
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: Bodie Hayward.
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 49:55
  Speaker 5: You know, I have pretty high standards for professional wrestling.
• 49:58
  Speaker 5: I watched some of Brady's stuff. I think he's a
• 50:01
  Speaker 5: good worker.
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 50:03
  Speaker 5: He's good on the mic. He's charismatic. He has a
• 50:06
  Speaker 5: great body. He does a good scoop slam. He does
• 50:09
  Speaker 5: a good spear. Will any of those things help him
• 50:11
  Speaker 5: on Survivor? Probably not.
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: I mean, being good on the mic, I think.
• 50:14
  Speaker 5: Yeah, being charismatic, being good in challenges. I'm sure he'll
• 50:17
  Speaker 5: be very good in challenges. But yeah, I think that
• 50:21
  Speaker 5: if I was an indie company booker, I would sign him.
• 50:24
  Speaker 5: Or I'd get him to work a few shows. You
• 50:26
  Speaker 5: got a book, Brady Booker?
• 50:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Book, Brady Booker. Yeah, book, Brady Booker. BBB. Book,
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: Brady Booker. Book, Brady Booker.
• 50:35
  Speaker 5: So we know from his intro video that when he
• 50:37
  Speaker 5: was seven years old, He shot a deer.
• 50:41
  Speaker 4: He ate the heart and the liver. And then do
• 50:44
  Speaker 4: you remember what he did after that?
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: He put the blood all over himself.
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: Yes, he smeared the blood on his face. Do with
• 50:50
  Speaker 1: that what you will.
• 50:51
  Speaker 2: I will. That's a pretty common thing, actually. In hunting? Yeah,
• 50:55
  Speaker 2: in hunting. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I've never been hunted. It's
• 50:58
  Speaker 2: like a tradition. It's like when you shoot your first deer,
• 50:59
  Speaker 2: you're supposed to put the blood all over your face.
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: I guess that shows I'm being brand or, you know,
• 51:03
  Speaker 1: city slickers. You've gone hunting.
• 51:05
  Speaker 2: You're from Traveler's Rest.
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: It's the city, brother.
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: You've gone hunting?
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I have.
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: I never have.
• 51:15
  Speaker 2: I didn't put blood on my face. I didn't shoot
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: a deer. I was just there. Oh, okay. You've never
• 51:20
  Speaker 2: shot an animal?
• 51:21
  Speaker 3: No, no.
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: You never would? No, no. I'm enlightened. Right. Yeah, no,
• 51:26
  Speaker 2: I would never shoot an animal.
• 51:27
  Speaker 4: He has three degrees. You probably wouldn't expect that.
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: Looking at him?
• 51:32
  Speaker 4: He said he's going to use his little pre-law brain
• 51:34
  Speaker 4: to get after me.
• 51:36
  Speaker 2: Pre-law?
• 51:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 51:37
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he's going to use his little pre-law brain to
• 51:39
  Speaker 5: get after these people on the island.
• 51:40
  Speaker 2: Technically, we're all pre-law. Yeah, that's true.
• 51:44
  Speaker 5: So he wants to be open to working with everybody,
• 51:46
  Speaker 5: but what's really going to give him the edge is
• 51:48
  Speaker 5: the secret alliances with the opposite Brodies.
• 51:51
  Speaker 2: That's how he put it. Was he the guy that
• 51:55
  Speaker 2: was always saying Brody? Brody, yeah. Okay.
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: So his name is Brady.
• 51:59
  Speaker 2: Went by Brody.
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: His name at WWE was Bodie.
• 52:02
  Speaker 9: Bodie.
• 52:02
  Speaker 5: But now he calls people Brody. Man, he is a mess. Yeah,
• 52:07
  Speaker 5: I did see a clip.
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: Book Brady, Booker Brody.
• 52:10
  Speaker 5: I saw a clip of somebody asking him about his
• 52:13
  Speaker 5: WWE release. And I think the report that was out
• 52:17
  Speaker 5: there was that he was late to meetings or something.
• 52:21
  Speaker 5: And then he's like, I was never late. All right,
• 52:23
  Speaker 5: the one time I was late, I had a flat tire.
• 52:27
  Speaker 5: I had to refill it twice. And he's like, and
• 52:29
  Speaker 5: the other time. And then the clip cut off.
• 52:31
  Speaker 2: And the other time. That's funny.
• 52:34
  Speaker 5: So it was like, I was never late. Okay, the
• 52:36
  Speaker 5: one time, and then the other time.
• 52:38
  Speaker 2: He's a wrestler. Is that it? Yep, that is it.
• 52:42
  Speaker 2: All right, Chase, moving right along with Alexis. Is that right?
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: Yes, cousin of Avril Lavigne and Adam Levine.
• 52:50
  Speaker 2: Not really. Are they related? I don't know. I don't
• 52:53
  Speaker 2: think so. Here's Alexis.
• 52:54
  Speaker 9: I believe people have greatness in them and shouldn't really
• 52:58
  Speaker 9: be judged by their worst moments.
• 53:00
  Speaker 2: Now, on Survivor... If.
• 53:02
  Speaker 3: I can exploit someone's worst moment, I might do it.
• 53:06
  Speaker 7: It is what it is.
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: Now, you might could tell just from that little snippet
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: that she is not a Taurus like the rest of
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: the ones we talked about. She's a, let me guess, Sagittarius.
• 53:16
  Speaker 2: Nope.
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: She's an Aries, which means that she's bold.
• 53:19
  Speaker 2: Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no Aries.
• 53:23
  Speaker 4: She's bold, energetic, confident, passionate. Her Chinese zodiac is the
• 53:28
  Speaker 4: water monkey.
• 53:29
  Speaker 2: Ooh.
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: Clever, quick-witted, adaptable, inquisitive. Her pet peeve, misogyny, as it
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: should be all of our pet peeves.
• 53:38
  Speaker 2: You know what? Same goes for me, double. Yep.
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: Hey, triple over here.
• 53:42
  Speaker 2: Can I quad it?
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: People already know.
• 53:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, quad it. Quad it.
• 53:48
  Speaker 4: Her other pet peeve is people who are ruled by
• 53:51
  Speaker 4: their emotions. And I don't want to be that kind
• 53:54
  Speaker 4: of person, which is why I am enlightened now.
• 53:57
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to crash out anymore. I'm not going
• 53:59
  Speaker 1: to let my emotions lead the way.
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: I'm going to ignore your bit right now and say
• 54:03
  Speaker 2: I do like that in a Survivor player. Somebody who
• 54:07
  Speaker 2: doesn't like being ruled by their emotions and someone who
• 54:10
  Speaker 2: doesn't want that in an Alliance member. I think that
• 54:13
  Speaker 2: that's strong. Yeah, I agree.
• 54:14
  Speaker 5: And that would describe you pretty well, the first four
• 54:17
  Speaker 5: seasons covering Survivor for making the merge, ruled by your emotions.
• 54:21
  Speaker 2: I don't think so. But I appreciate your critique. It
• 54:26
  Speaker 2: wasn't a critique. And I accept it.
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: It wasn't a critique. It was an observation.
• 54:29
  Speaker 4: I appreciate it and I accept it. That's all for me.
• 54:33
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 54:33
  Speaker 2: Very good. All right. Up next, I have Pat.
• 54:37
  Speaker 13: With you right until we hit the courtroom. It's the
• 54:43
  Speaker 13: same thing in Survivor. So when I'm in an alliance,
• 54:46
  Speaker 13: I want them to feel that closeness with me. But
• 54:49
  Speaker 13: I'm ready to go to war with any of these people.
• 54:51
  Speaker 2: Ready to go to war. Ready to go to war.
• 54:54
  Speaker 2: Serious stuff from Pat. Pat Cannaday. Cannaday.
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: Cannaday, I think.
• 55:03
  Speaker 2: Cannaday. Sounds right.
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: I don't think I've seen that name before.
• 55:08
  Speaker 2: One thing you need to know about Pat is that
• 55:10
  Speaker 2: Pat is a federal prosecutor. That's big. Big deal.
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: For the Navy, right?
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: And yeah, lives in D.C., obviously, from Florida originally. She's
• 55:23
  Speaker 2: only 33 years old, and she's a federal prosecutor. So
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: pretty boss. And also not a super fan of Survivor. Interesting.
• 55:34
  Speaker 2: She's seen a couple seasons. She saw a season and
• 55:36
  Speaker 2: was like, yeah, I'll play.
• 55:37
  Speaker 1: That's fun.
• 55:38
  Speaker 2: Not a super fan, though. We like that. She loves challenges.
• 55:42
  Speaker 2: She loves adventures. And she wants this to be the
• 55:45
  Speaker 2: challenge slash adventure of a lifetime. She does have a
• 55:48
  Speaker 2: couple players that she is trying to embody. A couple
• 55:51
  Speaker 2: of goats. Amanda Kimmel and Rachel Lamont. Amanda played a
• 55:58
  Speaker 2: loyal resilient game. Rachel played scrappy, no holds barred. She's
• 56:02
  Speaker 2: trying to merge those two. She's trying to make the
• 56:06
  Speaker 2: merge between Amanda and Rachel. Absolutely. Valuing an alliance member,
• 56:12
  Speaker 2: someone who is willing to take risks with her and
• 56:16
  Speaker 2: engage in shenanigans. Okay. Love shenanigans. And she thinks that
• 56:22
  Speaker 2: her sparkling personality, undeniable wits, and, of course, her good
• 56:27
  Speaker 2: looks are going to be why she is the sole survivor.
• 56:30
  Speaker 5: And something that I haven't been able to get over
• 56:33
  Speaker 5: is that she was the first woman in her family.
• 56:35
  Speaker 5: And it's like, how is that even possible?
• 56:37
  Speaker 2: I was the first woman in my family.
• 56:39
  Speaker 5: I'm going to clip that and cut off the rest
• 56:43
  Speaker 5: of the sentence where she's like the first woman in
• 56:45
  Speaker 5: my family. I think it was like to graduate or
• 56:47
  Speaker 5: to go to college or something. But the way she
• 56:49
  Speaker 5: set it up, you know.
• 56:50
  Speaker 2: Pat, I like Pat.
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: She's a real Commander Harmon from JAG.
• 56:55
  Speaker 2: Sure, absolutely. All right, Chase, are you ready? No, PD,
• 56:59
  Speaker 2: you're right. We can skip PD. No, I don't think so.
• 57:03
  Speaker 5: No, because I actually brought some things, like information from
• 57:07
  Speaker 5: their lives.
• 57:07
  Speaker 1: This is Devin?
• 57:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Devin. All right, Devin.
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: I can spin anything on its head to make it
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: a positive.
• 57:15
  Speaker 2: And if the elements don't kill me, then nothing will.
• 57:18
  Speaker 3: If Joe.
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: and Devin's had a baby. That is what you're looking at.
• 57:24
  Speaker 2: If Joe and Devin's had a baby, they'd be so pissed.
• 57:26
  Speaker 5: You're looking at the baby of Joe and Devin's.
• 57:29
  Speaker 2: They hate each other.
• 57:31
  Speaker 5: Devin way. Devin confused me at first when I was
• 57:35
  Speaker 5: looking into him.
• 57:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 57:36
  Speaker 5: Devin is 33. He's from Lufkin, Texas. That was the
• 57:39
  Speaker 5: first thing that confused me. I'd never heard of Lufkin.
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: He is an actor.
• 57:44
  Speaker 5: And what confused me was I went to his profile
• 57:47
  Speaker 5: and And I saw that he had done an interview
• 57:49
  Speaker 5: about gay surf week in Costa Rica.
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: This I was not confused about.
• 57:52
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 57:53
  Speaker 5: What I was confused about was when I scrolled down
• 57:55
  Speaker 5: a little bit further and then I see a picture
• 57:58
  Speaker 5: of him with a woman and it says, to the
• 57:59
  Speaker 5: love of my life, the woman who will carry my
• 58:01
  Speaker 5: child and my wife in every life.
• 58:04
  Speaker 4: And then I scroll down. That's just his best friend.
• 58:07
  Speaker 4: So he is gay.
• 58:09
  Speaker 2: He is gay.
• 58:10
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 58:11
  Speaker 2: People can be bisexual, too.
• 58:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 58:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but that was just him having fun with his bestie.
• 58:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I understand that. Thank you, Chase.
• 58:18
  Speaker 5: But anyway, Gay Surf Week in Costa Rica. So he
• 58:21
  Speaker 5: did an interview about that, and they asked him, how
• 58:23
  Speaker 5: would you describe your experience working with the coaches at
• 58:26
  Speaker 5: Surf Synergy?
• 58:28
  Speaker 2: I was wondering the same thing, actually.
• 58:30
  Speaker 5: Devin said, hot. My coach was hot. And that was
• 58:33
  Speaker 5: his answer.
• 58:33
  Speaker 2: Fascinating.
• 58:36
  Speaker 5: So as far as his occupation of being an actor,
• 58:40
  Speaker 5: he will be keeping that a secret.
• 58:42
  Speaker 7: Okay.
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he doesn't want to give that away.
• 58:45
  Speaker 2: I'd hate for people to know that.
• 58:47
  Speaker 5: Because then he could be acting. If he's ever emotional,
• 58:50
  Speaker 5: they'd be like, are you just acting?
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: Can I make a prediction here?
• 58:55
  Speaker 3: What?
• 58:55
  Speaker 4: If he gets paired up on the same tribe as
• 58:58
  Speaker 4: the voice actress, I think that goes out the window.
• 59:00
  Speaker 4: Because if she starts talking.
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: About all this stuff. Then he'll want to talk about
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: his credits. He'll get jealous and want it. Because I
• 59:06
  Speaker 1: know actors and they can't help it.
• 59:08
  Speaker 2: I've got to be honest with you. I can't imagine
• 59:11
  Speaker 2: Devin having as many credits as you.
• 59:14
  Speaker 8: He doesn't.
• 59:14
  Speaker 2: He was on Peacock.
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: He was on Grey's Anatomy.
• 59:17
  Speaker 2: For an episode. He was on a Peacock show. Okay.
• 59:19
  Speaker 1: He was on Grey's Anatomy.
• 59:20
  Speaker 2: Was he Strawberry Shortcake for 150 episodes?
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: No, he had some role on, I believe the show
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: was called Queer as Folk.
• 59:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I heard about that show. I think they only
• 59:29
  Speaker 2: got one season.
• 59:30
  Speaker 5: So he says he has a lot of bullseyes on
• 59:32
  Speaker 5: him because he describes himself as charming, charismatic, tall, and big.
• 59:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Humble.
• 59:38
  Speaker 5: He's been through a lot. He was a biracial kid
• 59:42
  Speaker 5: raised by drug-addicted hillbillies, and his grandma was in a
• 59:44
  Speaker 5: biker gang.
• 59:45
  Speaker 2: Hell yeah.
• 59:47
  Speaker 5: And he's not so experienced at anything survival-related. Although he
• 59:50
  Speaker 5: had a great time at Gay Surf Week in Costa Rica,
• 59:53
  Speaker 5: he does not like sand or swimming. He's never built anything.
• 59:57
  Speaker 5: He doesn't eat fish. He doesn't like coconuts. But he
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 5: loves people, and he loves games. But he doesn't want
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 5: to lie. So he wants people to know he's reliable,
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 5: and he wants to make it to the end without
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 5: backstabbing anybody. And you know how he said he's a
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 5: mix of Joe and Devins? So the thing that he said, like,
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 5: he wants to play like Joe. And the reason why
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 5: he compared himself to Devins is because Devins is, like,
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 5: happy and smiles.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 2: That's the one character trait that he's gotten from Devon's.
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 2: I think he just watched season 50 for like four
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 2: weeks and was like, yeah, these are my guys. Probably.
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 5: They asked him, what's one life experience that you feel
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 5: has prepared you for the game? And this caught me
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 5: off guard. He said, I play Dungeons and Dragons every week,
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 5: and the game teaches you to roll the dice no
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 5: matter what happens.
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: You can figure it out.
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 2: It is a good improv-based game, I believe.
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 2: All right. Very good. That's Devon. I like Devon.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: I was very intrigued by Gay Surf Week in Costa Rica.
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 1: Can I reveal something about myself?
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 2: I really want to learn to surf. Do you want
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 2: to go to Costa Rica? I would love to go
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 2: to Costa Rica and go to Gay Surf Week. That
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 2: sounds awesome.
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: That does sound like a blast.
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not going to learn. You don't want to
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 2: learn to surf?
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 3: You don't want to go?
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 2: I don't even know how to swim. I'll go with
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 2: you guys. Okay. But I don't even like the beach.
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: I hate the beach. I don't hate the beach, but I.
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 2: Don't love the beach. I don't love it, but. I've
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 2: always wanted to learn how to serve.
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 2: I believe in you. And that was just me opening
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 2: up a little bit about myself. Honestly, can I say this?
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 2: I really appreciate that. Oh, thank you. I really appreciate it.
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 2: And we hear you. Oh, thanks. And we support you. Thanks.
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 2: All right, Chase. You're up next with... Christian Chavez. Christian Chavez. Dude, dude.
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 7: I'm a very bubbly and eccentric person. I think I'm
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 7: very extra, or so I've been told. I fully expect
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 7: to be known as the loudest laugh that a survivor's
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 7: ever had. But I wouldn't be surprised if they could
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 7: hear me on another island.
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 2: Ooh, a laugh-off?
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 9: A laugh-off?
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 1: Is he alluding to maybe the Love Island cast here?
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 2: Oh, that would be cool.
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 1: Don't bring that up to Jeff, though. Hey, fourth Taurus.
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 1: Another Taurus hit the tower.
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 2: I would not have seen him being a Taurus.
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's grounded.
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 5: I don't know what.
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 2: I have no idea what.
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 1: He's grounded.
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 2: He's loyal.
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 1: He's grounded.
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 9: He's loyal.
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 1: He's persistent. He's practical. But he's a metal dragon, Chinese Zodiac.
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 4: Which means he was born in the year 2000.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 2: Confident.
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 5: That's my metal scream for the day.
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 1: Confident, intelligent, enthusiastic, ambitious.
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 4: Now, if you remember when we were talking about the
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 4: pet peeves of Alexis, she said her pet peeve is
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 4: people who are ruled by their emotions. Well, Christian's pet
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 4: peeve is people getting upset at someone showing emotion. So
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 4: I do not think that these two are going to
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 4: blend well on the island.
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 1: Do they have conflicting zodiacs?
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 2: Taurus and Aries, maybe. I should look into that. I'll
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 2: ask the crystals. Do Taurus and Aries get along? They
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 2: can get along, but the relationship takes work because they
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 2: have very different personalities. That means no. That means no.
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 1: Good pull, PD.
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 2: I knew you were enlightened.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 7: Am I?
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 4: I mean, you knew the thing about the Zodiacs there.
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 2: That's really enlightened of you.
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: But yeah, that's about it for Christians.
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 2: All right, very good. A couple more left. It's me next.
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 2: Here is Mike.
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 12: My job is to make recommendations to help win the
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 12: World Series.
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 1: Short one, but that's all you need to know.
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 2: That is all you need to know. World Series. What
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 2: team is Mike talking about? The New York Yankees. He
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 2: is a New York Yankee. Bread and buttered. He works
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 2: for the Yankees as an executive. He is a... Don't
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 2: let that make you think that, oh, he doesn't like fun.
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 2: Because he does like fun. He loves Survivor. When he
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 2: was eight years old, he played Survivor with his friends
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 2: in the New York City apartments. When he was 18,
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 2: his college friends would drop everything for their Wednesday night viewings.
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 2: When he was 28... He proposed to his wife and
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 2: incorporated a Probst catchphrase into the proposal. That's how you
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 2: do it. We call it a Probstposal. Which one do
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 2: you think it was? Oh, man, that's good. That's how
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 2: you do it. You gotta dig. Oh, man. You want
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 2: to know what you're playing for? Show the ring?
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 1: That would be a really good one.
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 2: That's pretty good. I like that.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 1: That might be it. And then if she wanted to
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 1: say no, she could say, sorry for you.
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 2: All right. The players that he identifies with the most, Kyle, Frazier,
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 2: Charlie Davis, Adam Klein. Interesting. Interesting indeed. I thought so
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 2: as well also. With baseball front offices, when it comes
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 2: to survivor strategies, information is king, which is true. When
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 2: you're in a front office, you need information to know
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 2: who to talk to about certain things, trades, etc., And Survivor,
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 2: the more information you have, the better you can maneuver
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 2: with it. So that might come into play here, his
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 2: desire to get information and to know how to use
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 2: that information. He claims that he's athletic, but he's only 5'8,
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 2: so he's not physically imposing. So people might not see
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 2: him as the physical threat that he actually is. He's strategic,
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 2: but he's able to downplay it. And he's good at chatting,
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 2: but not over doing it with the charm. So he
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 2: thinks that that is going to give him the perfect
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 2: amount of like good qualities without being too much that
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 2: will allow him to make it to the end. And
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 2: that is New York Yankees own Mike Pinksky. The Pinkster,
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 2: the pinky in the brain.
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 5: I want to automatically not like him because he works
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 5: for the Yankees.
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 11: Of course.
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 2: I think that is a natural starting point for most people.
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 1: And, you know, the co-host of Deck the Hallmark, Dan.
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 9: I know.
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 2: It's his worst trait. Yeah.
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 5: I told him that there was somebody who worked for
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 5: the Yankees, and he said, like, I've never heard of him,
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 5: but if he works for the Yankees, he's probably an asshole.
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 5: And that's coming from a huge Yankees fan.
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 2: Absolutely. Absolutely. All right. Up next is P.D. and it's Jelly.
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 2: All right. All right. Ah, shit, wrong jelly. Sorry, sorry.
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 1: Something unpredictable.
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 2: I like that you went with the cover. You didn't
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 2: even do an original jelly song. All right, here's the
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 2: real jelly.
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, here's the real jelly.
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 12: More than anything I know to exist is the biggest
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 12: challenge one can put themselves through.
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 2: I want the challenge. I want to be humbled.
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 6: I want to be confronted with my biggest weaknesses so
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 6: I can grow from them.
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 2: I just know that I'll leave here a completely different
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 2: person for the better. That's jelly.
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 4: Do you think there's any players that go in with
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 4: that mindset of like, this is going to change my life,
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 4: and then it's just kind of.
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 2: Like, not? Yeah, I hate it every second.
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 4: It's like, have you seen the clip that goes viral
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 4: every once in a while where it's like a survivor
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 4: challenge without all the edits and the Jeff narrating?
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 1: And it just feels like summer camp.
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 4: And it's like, is that a life-changing experience for everyone?
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 2: I mean, they call it the summer camp high for
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 2: a reason, man. There's something about.
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 5: Yes, I'm going to go out on a limb and
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 5: say Survivor is a life-changing experience for 99% of the.
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 1: People who go out there. I was just asking. I'm
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 1: just answering.
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 2: Anyway, Jelly.
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 5: Jelly is a sociology professor living in Bloomington, Indiana. She
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 5: loved the fact that Survivor was always a sociology experiment.
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 5: And I think that's something that you like too, Chase.
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 5: Isn't that accurate?
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 2: No, no, no.
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 1: Is that not accurate?
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 2: No, I'm enlightened. There's a big difference.
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 5: She's fascinated by hierarchies that are formed when you throw
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 5: 20 people, 20 random people on an island together. And
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 5: she's trained in how those form. So she thinks that's
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 5: going to give her an advantage. And they asked her,
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 5: what is something that we would never know from just
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 5: looking at you? And her answer was, I once won
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 5: most comedic mascot at mascot camp.
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 2: Yes, it's a thing.
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 1: I was Weber the bear.
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 2: Here's the thing, guys. I was fully hoping that there
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 2: would be something in this jelly demonstration that would make
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 2: me not be as high on jelly as I am.
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 2: I think it's just.
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 1: Going to keep going.
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 3: Up.
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 2: It's the opposite. It's just going to keep going. The
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 2: jelly stock is to the moon.
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 1: So you think whoever gets first pick is going to
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 1: go for jelly?
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 2: I think jelly is an easy number one.
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 5: So they asked, who in your life is your biggest
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 5: inspiration and why? She said, my grandma, hands down. We're
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 5: talking about a woman who was queer in a time
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 5: where you could be in prison, hospitalized, or even have
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 5: your kids taken away for loving who you love. A
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 5: two-time breast cancer survivor and widow who's dealt with every
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 5: negative thing life can throw, but she still leads with
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 5: love and pours into every human.
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 1: She comes in contact with.
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 6: Dang.
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 2: Phenomenal.
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 5: Why will you be the sole survivor? Because I'm driven, passionate, brainiac,
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 5: in an unsuspecting, beautifully wrapped package. Being a sociologist, I'm
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 5: not only an expert on all things social... I'm literally
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 5: trained to immerse myself in any environment and social dynamic.
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 5: Take what I need and put it to good use.
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 5: There's nobody better equipped to win a social experiment that
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 5: is survivor than the sociologists who create them.
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 9: Hmm.
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 2: Pretty good.
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 1: Pretty compelling case.
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 4: I will say this is like one of the only
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 4: castaways whose job does make me feel like they will
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 4: be better at survivor.
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 3: Sure.
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 4: Because whenever an attorney is like, well, I'm a lawyer,
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 4: so I can't tell anyone because that means I'm really
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 4: good at survivor.
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 2: I'm like, really? Does it?
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 2: But sociology? I can get into your psyche. There's one
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 2: other person who works in mental health, or at least
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 2: with the brain. We'll get to them in just a second. Okay.
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 2: That's a tease.
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 1: I like that. And the business.
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 2: But you go first, Chase. Is this your last person?
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 1: This is. This is Kristen Flickinger.
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 2: Flickinger.
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 1: I think that's who we're talking about.
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 7: Oh, no.
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 2: Then there might be three. I had someone, too. Here's Kristen.
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 12: My motivation to come out and play Survivor, it has
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 12: been a calling for a really long time since I
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 12: saw that first episode. It reached into my chest and
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 12: grabbed me and was like.
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 4: You got to play this game.
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 12: Actually, every time I saw someone like me on Survivor, Amy, Scout,
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 12: those were important characters to me.
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 1: Kristen, just like our friend Alexis Levine, she is an Aries.
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 7: Okay.
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 4: And we know what that means. We know that that
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 4: means bold, energetic, independent, pioneering. She's a fire snake, though.
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 4: A fire snake is charismatic, intelligent, passionate, and intense. She's
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 4: been applying for Survivor.
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 2: Since the middle of season one.
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 6: Wow.
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 1: Took her 24 and a half years. That's incredible. To
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 1: get cast on Survivor. She never gave up?
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 8: Nope.
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 1: And that's how you do it on Survivor.
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 2: Uh, thank you for, that was a real piece of
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 2: information about her. So I appreciate that. Yeah.
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 4: She also, uh, they asked her, what is your biggest
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 4: pet peeve?
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 2: She says, my biggest pet peeve is the term pet peeve.
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 2: What even is that?
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 1: It sounds like a poltergeist dog.
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 7: Wow.
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 2: So yep.
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 1: That's it for, for Kristen.
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 2: Wow. Pet peeve. Pet peeve is pet peeve. Um, all right,
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 2: here is my last player, which is Eric. My intentions
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 2: are good overall. I want to make friends with these people. However,
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 2: if any of them cross me, that's when the fangs
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 2: are going to come out.
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 9: That's when I'm going to bite their neck, suck their blood,
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 9: toss them.
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 2: In the ocean and sustain.
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 9: So to be a great therapist is to be able
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 9: to build a rapport.
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 2: So funny. It's such a great combination. But yes, he
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 2: is a therapist who will suck your blood if he
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 2: has to. Eric is from Rhode Island, lives in Connecticut,
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 2: so slightly different area, I guess, if my geography is correct.
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 2: They're close, right? Rhode Island and Connecticut? Yeah. Yeah, close enough.
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 2: Eric is someone who loves people and learning about what
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 2: makes them tick. Survivor is the ultimate celebration of the
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 2: human experience. That's a good line. That, I think, sums
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 2: it up pretty good. One life experience that he thinks
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 2: has prepared him for the game is being involved in
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 2: community theater. So he's a therapist and also doing some theater.
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 2: Doing that has prepared him for Survivor and each show
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 2: that he's thrown into. He's with a new group of people,
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 2: very different ages, backgrounds, and skill sets. To which I
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 2: ask you, Chase, you've acted in community theater recently even.
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 2: Do you think your experience doing that would help you
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 2: in Survivor? Yeah, I guess so.
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 4: That doesn't sound very confident. Well, I was just trying
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 4: to think it through to give a real answer.
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 1: Ask your crystals.
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 4: Well, no, I'm going to rely on my own knowledge
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 4: in this one. I'll say you're having to work on
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 4: a big goal with a bunch of strangers that you
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 4: just met, and it's mixing and matching personalities. You're working
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 4: with an 80-year-old British woman. I'm speaking from personal experience.
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 4: And are you trying to eliminate any of them from
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 4: the production over the.
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 2: Course of it?
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the show I just did, someone got kicked out
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 4: the week before the show.
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 1: And it's pretty cutthroat.
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 2: Theater's drama.
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 1: That's just how it is from day one.
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 2: All right, pretty good. Something you might not know about him,
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 2: just looking at him, is that he trained Muay Thai kickboxing.
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 2: Am I saying that right?
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 5: And he met our patron Will. At Wild and Will
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 5: Merritt Boston, he met him at a Ben Katzman concert.
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 2: How about that?
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 1: And they're friends.
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 2: Very cool.
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 1: And Will says that he's going to win the whole season.
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 1: He's really high on his friend.
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 2: But I don't think he's going to go there. Will clarified.
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 2: He's like, I don't have any information.
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 7: Oh, yeah.
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 2: Of course.
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 8: Of course.
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 4: But whoever drafts Eric, I will be locking in with
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 4: their team.
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 6: Wow.
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 2: So all it took was Will meeting one person.
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 1: And I'm not drafting this guy. But it's at... A
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 1: Ben Katzman concert.
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 2: That's true.
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 1: That really takes it.
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 2: To the top. That helps it. That helps it. Another
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 2: thing that might be helpful was a competitive swimmer from
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 2: age eight up until senior year of college. That actually is...
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 2: So it doesn't present as the athletic type, but... That
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 2: is helpful on Survivor. That is helpful on Survivor. I mean...
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 2: He's an emotionally intelligent person who can form close bonds
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 2: and is self-aware and is able to control when to lead,
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 2: when to follow. All the things that you would hope
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 2: to see in somebody on Survivor. The line about the
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 2: sucking of the blood and stuff really throws me off
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 2: with him.
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and isn't there a picture of him as a
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 5: vampire with blood in his mouth?
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 2: Because it's like everything about him and what he is
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 2: saying and his occupation and whatnot, the fact that he's
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 2: not athletic looking but is a competitive swimmer, stuff like
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 2: that is like, I think that he could go all
• 1:15:43
  Speaker 2: the way. The blood sucking thing was so out of
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 2: left field. Like, I don't even know what to do
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 2: with it. I think he just knows he's a Survivor
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 2: super fan. Yeah.
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 1: He knows what he's supposed to.
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 4: Do on a season of Survivor. I don't think who
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 4: he is as a person is a blood sucker.
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 5: I think who he is as a person might a
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 5: little bit. That might be like his alter ego.
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 2: Vampire Eric.
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 12: Yeah.
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 2: Vampire Eric. vampiric vampiric yeah that's strong i like that
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 2: all right last but not least we have pd's final
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 2: player and our final player maggie.
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 10: Apprehensive he thinks i'm a little crazy but i am
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 10: he knows that like my parents literally told him when
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 10: he asked to marry me like are you sure she's.
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 4: A lot I love it, Maggle.
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 2: Maggle. Maggle. Maggle.
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 1: You know about that?
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 2: No, I don't know that.
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 5: Okay, so JBL. Terrible person. WWE wrestlers have commentator.
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 2: What is it? John Bradshaw? John Bradshaw.
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 1: He worked with Michael Cole and he was the heel commentator.
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 2: He was awful.
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 1: Whenever the heels were doing heel stuff, he'd go, I.
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 2: Love it, Maggle.
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 4: Anyway, Maggie reminded me of that.
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 2: That's funny. I love it, Maggie.
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 4: I looked up every birthday of every person on the cast.
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 4: She's the only person where you cannot find it anywhere.
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 2: Hey, shout out.
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 1: I respect that.
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 2: Being on Survivor And unsearchable. Yeah.
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 4: Maggie's 40 years old. She's from West Virginia.
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 1: Mountain mama. Country roads.
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 5: She's a teacher. She's a therapist. And she has a farm.
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 5: Maggie has some ambitious goals for Survivor, though. She wants
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 5: to catch a shark and make a fire without flint.
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 5: That sounds pretty doable.
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 1: Good goals.
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 1: So three words to describe her.
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 2: Joyful.
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 1: Intentional.
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 3: Redneck. Yeah.
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 1: I like it.
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 5: She was pretty dry. In her Q & A, she
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 5: was the driest of any contestant. Here's an example of that.
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 5: What's one life experience you feel has prepared you for
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 5: the game? Growing up in West Virginia.
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah. In the holler.
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 1: Absolutely.
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 5: What's something we would never know from looking at you?
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 5: I'm a mom of three amazing, marvelous children who merit
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 5: me more love than I deserve.
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 4: That's a good answer, Maggie. I feel like I'm on
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 4: Family Feud.
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 1: Good answer.
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 2: Good answer, Steve.
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 5: And I'll close with this. Which previous player do you
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 5: identify with the most? Who do you think you will
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 5: play most like? I most identify with Parvati. I don't
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 5: know who I'm going to play most like.
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 1: We'll see.
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 4: Everyone says Parv. Everyone says Parv. But I've yet to
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 4: see someone other than Savannah come close to Parv.
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 2: Anyway, that's Maggie.
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 4: Maggie seems real nice.
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Maggie seems real nice.
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 1: And she seems talented, too. She has a lot of hobbies.
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 2: There you go. I'm excited about this cast.
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 3: Me too.
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 2: I think this is going to be a really fun cast.
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 2: I agree. And we're not going to have to wait
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 2: long to see it.
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 6: No.
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 2: Is it? Two weeks from now?
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 1: As of recording, yeah.
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 2: When is this coming out? What is this?
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 1: Two weeks from now.
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 2: What are we?
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 4: This comes out next week, then the draft comes out
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 4: the following week, and that's the same week that the
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 4: show starts.
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 2: Okay, very good. All right, so next week we're drafting.
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 2: Next week. We're doing it. We're breaking the wheel out.
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 2: Are we dropping it on premiere night, Wednesday the 24th? No.
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 1: No, probably before.
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 2: That would be stupid. It'd be stupid to do the synergy.
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 1: Why don't we go ahead and pull up the wheel?
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 1: We'll save that for the draft show. I do want
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 1: to ask you guys, is there a clear first draft
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 1: in this? I think Jelly's very strong, but I don't know.
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 4: When you guys said that, because you were like, oh,
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 4: are we going to be fighting for Jelly? I was like,
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 4: I didn't even consider drafting her first.
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 2: Okay, well, there you go. That's why we do this.
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 1: I have considered it. I think Jelly's a strong choice.
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 1: We'll see. I consider drafting her, but just not first.
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 2: Is there anybody who jumps off the board to you?
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 1: Well, I'm not going to tell you, because then you
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 1: might try to take my draft pick. But why don't
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 1: you just tell me anyway? Because the Crystals told me
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 1: not to, and I listened to them.
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 7: All right.
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 2: Come on back next week. Yeah.
