Season 8, Episode 14 with Eric Shevrin

Anna and Nick are joined by Eric Shervin to talk season 8, episode 14 of Below Deck.

SOME INFO ON ERIC'S ORGANIZING WORK:

Airbnb is taking over our cities. The Olympics and Airbnb even have a 10 year sponsorship! Corporate-run, illegal, and speculative ‘home-share’ hotels contribute to rising rents, evictions, and homelessness. Across the city, hundreds of tenants have been kicked out of their homes after profit-eying landlords rais

Once these units, or even full buildings, have been cleared out, landlords can convert them into hotels. When there are fewer homes to rent out, landlords then raise the rents on their remaining units, overburdening some of their tenants and displacing others. Think this should be illegal? It is!

So NOlympicsLA and Anti Eviction Mapping Project created an anti-displacement organizing tool that allows tenants and neighbors to share stories of illegal Airbnbs across Los Angeles. To report Airbnb activity in your community, go to NOLYMPICSLA.COM/LOCKS and learn more.  

Both the Olympics and Airbnb are corporations that were founded on real-estate interests and the wealthy-tourist economy. They believe a city’s palatable corporate image comes before the lives of the poor. Let's fight back.

all grown up? God, my nightmare. I've heard that before.

(01:10):
I am in prison. Why did you go to prison? Well,
apparently he can't do everything you want. I'm in prison, Uh,
stemming from the Capitol riots from January six, Yeah, of
course that is. Actually I do want to look up
if they were at the Capitol riots, because I was

(01:31):
assuming the President was not lying to me, and I
continue to believe that he's gonna pardon me. Great great, Yeah,
you do realize he's no longer president. Right, so we
can't pardon you. What what's that he's not he's no
longer presidents. We can't pardon you. Huh uh. Well that's

(01:53):
a lot of news to hear. Okay, well I got
I gotta go hang myself. Okay, okay, she got dark. Alright,
Well see you all right. We have a great episode today.
We're talking below Deck, season A, episode fourteen for teeny
weeny as I like to call it. We have an
interesting guest to guess. We've never had an interesting guest before.

(02:18):
All our other guests who are lacking interest. This one though,
Oh whoa wa wa wa we woa my roh you
went yes, I went boor wat Yeah, this guess We
have not had them one before, but they come highly recommended,
so I am excited to have them, and we are
excited to have them. No, just me, not you, Nick.

(02:40):
We are joined by musician and organizer from No Olympics
l A. Eric Chevron. Welcome, Eric, thanks for joining us,
Thanks for having me on. You are the second guest
that Molly Lampert has recommended to us, and wow, she
never fails, So I'm excited to have you. I have

(03:03):
a lot to live up to she actually introduced me.
Molly actually introduced me as a comedian. So I feel
like I have a lot to live up to. So
I'm gonna try well jerk. Okay, Nick, You know I
always ask when I'm being brought up to stage, I say,
just don't tell him I'm a comedian, say I say,
say financial advisor trying out stand up for the first time.

(03:26):
People go, why why don't we buy tickets for this?
But then I come and I am okay, and their
minds are blown. Expectations need to be as low as
possible in general in life. They bring me up as
the first guy to sell game stop stock. Wow. Yeah,
so right away that is topical. Nick. I like that

(03:49):
kind of humor, thank you very much. I like to
call that good time humor. Yeah, um, do you do
like an hour? Then when the then okay, yeah, well, Eric,
look I heard you have a great Captain Lee impression. Um,
and I heard that from yourself, So I know that
sounds kind of a weird thing to say, but I'm excited.

(04:10):
That's why I was, like, comedian and he's got a
Captain Lee impression. Then he claims he's not a comedian.
Doesn't matter to me because at this point he's a
comedian to me. So yeah, my yeah, no, no, no,
my Captain Lee impression. It's one of those kind of
impressions that, um, well, actually, my my girlfriend got me
into this show. Um. I want to give a shout
out to my girlfriend, Chloe. You helped me prepare for
this show. Um, and we do we do these impressions,

(04:31):
uh in the comfort of our apartment. And my Captain
Lee impression is uh, I have to stand up for
it actually because I have to get in the mode. Um.
But it really came out when he had to kick
off audition for us. As you're holding paper, and he
came right right and he came. Uh. He was so

(04:52):
angry that they jumped in the in the ocean. Um,
when they were drunk, when she was drunk. Yeah, and
he just went, okay, I'm a second. He went, God
damn it. Yeah, that was do it again, do it again.
That's it. If I can get a line from him,
I can say, how about Oh I wrote one down.
Actually what I wrote one down from the shop here

(05:14):
it is, this is the most performance anyone has given us. Yeah,
he had a wild hairra brass. No, that wasn't that
good classic? Yeah, I mean Captain Lee is a very
interesting guy. I feel like the more of these seasons
go on, the more like he becomes humanized to me,

(05:34):
because before I was always like, he's just a tough guy.
He doesn't want to babysit anyone. He just wants to
captain the boat and go home to his lovely bride
Marianne at the end of the day. But now you know,
with this like extra layer of his personality that we're
getting that he's you know, experienced some trauma in his
life of losing his son, and he's like really going

(05:56):
through it. I'm like, who is this man? Very interesting?
I'm very moved by him as a white I totally
agree with you as a white boomer. He is very
in touch with himself. He's been through a lot, like
you were saying, Um, his son, there's been multiple opioid
overdoses in this season, which is really sad and tragic,

(06:18):
and um, he shows emotion on television and uh. He
has really shown himself to be a complex character and
he's very dynamic as a character. And I really really
grown to like Captain a lot. Yeah, he's but I
guess I'm not going to talk to you about his politics.
His politics have I mean, look, he's a he's an

(06:40):
older white man in Florida pom talking about people. I
wasn't even talking about his politics. No, I know, I'm
saying that there's lots of lackable things about his personality. Yeah,
his politics. Look again, older white man in Florida. I
expect fucking nothing from his polity. I know nothing about
his I actually know nothing about are they're They're very

(07:01):
similar to the people on the boat right, Oh of
course they are. I bet they all hang out. Of
course they do. Do you think that guy's never been
down to Versailles? I don't know. I'm sure he has. Well,
it's interesting to me because also he posted on his
Instagram about getting the vaccine. That was another layer where
I was like, Okay, so he believes he's not an

(07:22):
anti vaxer. Okay, okay, no one was. When the vaccine
became available, then they're like, oh wow, actually we all
like the vaccine. Now excuse me. I'm first I thought
one of the funniest parts of it wasn't this episode.
Do you guys remember when Rob when they were doing
the environmental clean up on the beach and Rob made

(07:45):
that comment to the camera and he you know, classic Rob.
He's just like that, you know, like puppy dog guy
and he's like he's like I couldn't believe it. I
you know, had this moment. I was like, you know,
if if we don't clean this up and if the
mbio it doesn't get better, they adding is gonna just
like go away and and like what happens then? And

(08:06):
I was like, oh my god, I know they're so
out of touch, Like that's the least of our fucking worries. Bro. Yeah,
it's like, no no one on either end like what
are rich people do? They'll find something? What well I do?
I don't think you wanted to do that forever? Yeah,
how quickly do you think? But when you're in that,

(08:26):
I mean I worked in service for for a really
long time at like high end restaurants, you know, lower
end restaurants, different different kind of service jobs. Like when
you're in it and it's super super high octane high
end guests, it's like it's traumatizing and you're you're you're
being abused just like constantly, so you're just like you

(08:47):
don't really know what you know, you have this like
tunnel vision, and you really have to take it like
one day at a time and one hour at a time.
Um so I do understand where it's coming from. And
I do, you know, like empathize or sympathize, you know,
like with these people they're working there. So I think
I do watch these and sort of like I'm forgiving
more so to to these work like the workers. But

(09:08):
I sometimes with like Captain Lee, for example, I'm like, oh, yeah, okay,
he is a boss. He is the fucking supervisor. But
I think to to a large extent, he does treat
them compared to like Sandy, for fucking example, Oh my god,
she's the classic. So I don't know if we even
want to go there, but go ahead, go ahead, please continue.
We're curious Andy. So so when you watch, like the

(09:29):
difference and even between Glenn Sandy is the class the prototypical.
I mean it's complex. You know, she's a woman, she's gay,
came up in the in the industry, you know, she
has to she tried to prove herself in anyway, So
it's complex in that way, but she is that sort
of prototypical you know, you have to work hard. You know,
you don't ask questions, you you do what you're told.

(09:51):
But she gives no praise, there's no love, there's no
softness with her, and she micromanages like fuck obviously you
mean like when she was just staring at Kiko, I
mean KOs her worst enemy. When are you sure that's
the side of the bread you want to butter Kiko?

(10:15):
I mean yeah. She also plays favorites in a way
that was unnerving, like with Malia, Like I don't know
what to tell you, but Malia isn't it my friend?
Like I know she wants she wants to follow in
your footsteps, but like, by like favoring Malia so hard,
you're disregarding the rest of your crew in a way
that's very detrimental to like teamwork. Basically she always has

(10:38):
teamwork makes the dreamwork. And it's I don't want to
but Malia ain't big enough, okay to be who Sandy
wants her to be. She can't lift things Malia though,
in order for Yachting to like exist or to keep going,
I feel like that type of postion almost like you

(11:01):
have the way that YA is set up, in the
way that the structure is like you have to sort
of I mean, what do you guys think of that?
Like you have to have that sort of um like structure.
I feel like they're that type of I don't know,
there's like no room for softness. I feel like in
some ways. Yeah, I mean it's very material. Was it militarialist? Militarist? Wow?
I can't say that word military? Oh god, this is

(11:27):
this is going well? Yeah, that word militaristic because of
like one, they're always in the way that you always
turn a blind eye to a sexual yes, but also
like hierarchy, like your rank, Like it's they're so obsessed
with these things that like, you know, I don't necessarily

(11:49):
think that goes hand in hand with good service, you know,
like I don't care about your rank, Just do your
job well. And like we could be here all day
to talk about this, but let's get into the show alright.
Season A, episode fourteen, I'd like to have to start
every new every show with a new guest and asked
them three questions. One, when did you start watching Below Deck?

(12:12):
What was your first season? My first season was um Met.
It was Mediterranean and it was Hannah Sandy and the chef,
And what's his name? British Ben. Yeah, yeah, oh, behave peace.
My second season, which was Bobby and the other Psycho,

(12:33):
Bobby and the other bro Broson. Actually I think that
that was the first season of Men, and the captain
was Mark Marcus. Remember he was like a Rando captain
they had for one season and then they got rid
of him and brought in Sandy. Right, oh right, right,
right right right, yeah, yeah, he's not a Rando captain.

(12:54):
They chose to build the spinoff around and and he
I guess he was a little less exciting than Zandy
because he was better. Well it's because Ben went up
to him to complain about something and He's like, I
don't care, and they were like, he is not bringing it.
He is not bringing it. He's fired. You know what

(13:14):
Marcus is doing now, he's um, he's captaining a boat
for the oligarch that poisoned navalny. No, he's not you okay. Yeah.
Ko was very famously the chef for Russian gods or something. Yeah,
it was like god son of Putin really yeah before yeah,

(13:38):
I mean they probably saw him before okay, yeah, yeah,
but he's the type of guy who doesn't care. He
says opportunities opportunity you got to get out of Brazil.
Boom boom boo. Can you imagine how many? Oh, he
probably loved it. That's why Kiko would always make it
all right. Second question, what has been your favorite season

(13:59):
you've ever watched? I think it was season two, the
one with Bobby and Sandy and Hannah and Bobby's the
bro the Broson season? Was that season two? Yeah? That
was season two. It was one of the most extraordinary
displays of like toxic masculinity and like gas lighting, And
it was honestly pretty disturbing to watch on television that

(14:23):
I've ever seen and like to like analyze that and
see that on on TV. It was like pretty astounding,
just like television. Season seven of Regular Below Deck that
one was pretty bad too, with the toxic masculinity on
the boys side being boys. I'm gonna punch you in

(14:44):
your boys right now, okay, buddy, um okay. Last question,
who's been your favorite contestant to ever be on this show? Um?
Favorite contestant is probably until sort of recently, but on
the show was I just oh, the guy from Liverpool, Liverpool.

(15:04):
I used to I'm a friend from Liverpool and he
reminded me of him, just a ste Liverpool was his name?
It was Jack, wasn't it Jack? Jack? Yah? Yeah, I
thought Jack was just a It was just a scouse.
D scounsels are just like they're just fucking that's how
they are. And being my girlfriend, no matter of good

(15:26):
Wolf back home. But then you know, we find out
later that he what did she say? He like got
back together with his ex. So you got back together
with his ex and has a baby with her. Now, sorry,
I was a laugh with you. Yeah, that was fucked.
That was fucked because I showed was it? I showed?

(15:46):
Was it? I show my one of my all time
favorite cast members? Right? I just my second, she's right
up there. Yeah, she's my first. Oh my god, that's
what she's always like. No, I love her. Yea. Let's
get into this episode. So Yes BLOWDECT Season eight, episode fourteen.

(16:09):
We continue with Francisco Francesco freaking out on Elizabeth for
sleeping in the guest cabin with James, to which I say,
who gives a fuck? It doesn't matter. Well that was
Elizabeth's point. She's like, I was there. Look I fucking
banged dog. You would have done the same if anyone

(16:32):
could stand you for twenty minutes. It takes. Yeah, Unfortunately,
unfortunately it's kind of a bummer, Like it's getting to
a point where, like Francesca's how emotionally invested Francesca is
in getting Elizabeth fired, it reflects incredibly poorly on her.
Like it's like, just do your fucking job. Focus on

(16:55):
directing Elizabeth to make sure she does her job, and
stop getting so like invested in what's going on between
her and James, Like, check out of that, dude, Just
check out. You don't need to worry about this. Worry
about your relationship with Rachel. Who's gonna fucking cut you
in your sleep, dude, that's who you should be worried about.
Rachel is not well. She will fucking poison you. You

(17:18):
need to be careful. You are making her unhappy right now. Yep,
I'm concerned. Yeah, I came out with the mahi. You
know that's what happens. You're gonna sunk up another Wise,
there was four orders of mahi one, two, three, four
mahi mahi mahi mahi. Okay, okay, did you see what
what the discrepancy was and what Francesco was saying? Why

(17:40):
it was five yes, because she was on one line
she had abbreviated mahi mahi to mahi, and then on
one line she wrote mahi mahi, which is the name
of the dish, and you can abbreviate and then put
them together. There was nothing in between them. Indiscretion was
that she wrote two people's name on one line and

(18:01):
just wrote mahi next to them, but she wrote everyone
else's name separately, which was confusing for Rachel. Go ahead,
as a as a server, you cannot do that. It's
always your fault when you write it like that because
you're looking the chef is going so fucking fast that
it has to be exactly the same every way. It
was a hundred percent. Francis his fault. I agree, she

(18:24):
knows fucking Rachel's busy. This woman is making four meals
at a time, and she's unhinged. Rachel's got something up
with her. Yeah, I think they're all unhinged, the chefs.
The chefs are are normally a bit of a piece
of work, but that's how chefs work. I'm afraid of
everyone on this show. I'm afraid of Elizabeth for putting

(18:46):
a spell on me. I'm afraid of Francesca just for like,
I guess you know, she's probably got laser eyes. I
am afraid of Rob, mostly just because I don't understand him. Hey,
I ask all the guests this, Bob Benson. Does that
mean anything to you? Yeah? That comedian? No, um, it's
a Madman character. Which one is that he comes in

(19:08):
late in the series and he is kind of an
enigma and you're not sure if he's kind of real
or not for a while. Yes, yes, yes, yes, that's
who Rob reminds me of. Interesting. Interesting. Oh. I think
Rob is like painfully normal. He's one of those like
hot kind of guys, but he's like so normal. It

(19:30):
all kind of came came to me once when he
said he was eating flawfel in one of his interviews,
and he said it in this way where he do
you guys remember this? He was like he was, yeah,
I was. I was like walking and I was like,
you know, eating flawf And I was like, dude, shut
up the way and his tattoos are a thing. It's

(19:52):
just like I was like, oh, Rob, you're like one
of these kind of guys, you know, like I don't know. Yeah,
And Bob Benson thing is kind. Yeah, it's interesting. I
don't worry. I'm not un interesting. I had a falafel.
I was listening to my iPod world music. You would
you know every I you know, I put my shoes on.

(20:12):
Don't worry every p pair I buy a to go
to homeless people who wears like those like Sanook loafers.
They're like made out of like canvas. Right right, exactly?
What was your sorry? Your your original? We were talking
about the Mahy thing right in Francesco. Right well, I

(20:32):
just think Francesca needs to worry less about Elizabeth and
more about her relationship with the chef of the boat,
who is kind of like the core piece to the
service going well. So it's like, I need you to
drop the Elizabeth ship because it's not going anywhere. It
doesn't matter. She does her job whatever. She's not as

(20:53):
bad as I don't believe. Of course, I'm not seeing everything.
She's as bad as they're making her out to be.
What about the fact that Ash is also so disturbed
and upset by Elizabeth? Like, what about that side of it?
I don't know what ashes deal is. I don't know
if Ash is just trying to stay on Francesco's good
side or if she really is perturbed by her. It's

(21:15):
hard to tell because it's like every time like an
example of Elizabeth annoying Ash. It's just that she's like
asking clarification questions. So why would you stick up for Elizabeth?
Why on earth? I mean, why would you confront your
boss about it? And then so you know, she had
to take a side pretty quickly. I think they've been

(21:35):
at this a long time. Elizabeth. She's being edited very
fairly for her. I think she's probably a lot worse
than we as the audience, think she is. And so
I think very early on, you know, her boss is like,
isn't this other person trash? And then she's like, I guess,
And then overall she doesn't do anything to make her

(21:57):
not seem trash, Like she almost kills him with a
dirty bomb. She's sucking in a cab. It's like everyone
knows everything you're doing sucks, like you cannot put enough
rocks in your tits to make up for how fucking
insane you are. So then the boss the whole time
is just like getting increasingly frustrated and you talk to
her about it for like an hour a day and

(22:18):
you get all fucking ramped up, and then eventually, you know,
the cabin fever hits, the coronavirus fever hits, the pressures
of the job here, and then you're in the middle
of this thing and she wants to explode at it all,
but the only thing she can safely explode at is
Elizabeth in a conversation with Francesca, so that's when she explodes.
It's not all about Elizabeth, but poor Ashley has been

(22:40):
stretched at a Lamit interesting. I can see that. I mean,
I agree it could be edited to make her look
less bad than she is, but I don't know. At
this point, I don't like Elizabeth isn't really annoying me
that much, so I'm like, wow, I don't know for sure.
And Nick, you brought up a great point where Elizabeth,
You're welcome. Is there anything worse than when someone is

(23:02):
responding to you and saying, I'm gonna do better, I'm
gonna I got this, I'm gonna give it my all,
and then like they just like repeatedly say that. It's
like you have that with friends, you have that family,
and it's like, I don't care, stop telling me this,
just do it. And it's like that's just happened so
many times with her. Yeah, so okay, Elizabeth or Francesca
freaks out on Elizabeth for sleeping in the guest cabin

(23:23):
with James, and Elizabeth says, this is the worst birthday
ever because I guess the next day is her thirtieth birthday.
So she has to call her energy healer to deal
with the terrible energy from Francesca, and her energy healer
is like, I'll totally give you good vibes over face
time or good energy and heal you. So she's doing
that on the deck and Captain Lee walks up and
he's like, what's what's what's up with their energy? Is

(23:45):
it busted? Is it broken? She's like, I'm just talking
to my energy healer and Captain's like, okay, all right,
sounds like her energy is not doing so well. But
I love when or when Captain he has to deal
with anything even remotely, not like straight and narrow for
what he's used to and you know by the book,

(24:07):
he's like energy, Do I have energy? I wonder how
much that phone call costs to her spiritual advisor or
not how much she charged? Oh my god, that guy
does not wake up for less than eighty a ten
minute session. Yeah, and you know her dad, who's a
lawyer that like you saw Elizabeth's dad was like, I'm
a tough guy, Long Island lawyer. He's paying for that.

(24:30):
She's not paying for it. I just wanted to be happy. Yeah.
She literally at one point says that she had a
wonderful childhood, Like, give me a fucking break, all right. Anyway,
it is officially the next day on boat World. It's
the morning. Francesca is losing her mind still over Elizabeth
and doing her like like arms up in the air exercises,

(24:55):
which is interesting. I guess that's how she gets her
like energy out in the morning, where she just wants
to punch as a bit of the face. I'm not
sure doing that. Actually, whenever I need to record with
Nick and I'm like he's made me man, I'm just
up in the recorder like what the fuck that? There

(25:19):
was a moment um Eddie wears a size small T shirt. Yeah,
a little little moment. I thought that was a really
funny things. I was like, small, bitch, not even a medium.
How tiny are you? Tall? Is this dog? Eddie? Eddie's
probably like five seven or something and hears a small,
which means he's pretty well a men's small, men's small.

(25:42):
It is not super tighty. It looks he looks like pretty.
It's confusing. The sizing was confusing, So yes, I would
agree ashe could be annoyed in that moment. She's like, bitch,
nobody wears a small except for the women, but who knows. Actually,
while we're here, let's take a quick commercial break and
we'll be right back to talking about this. And we're back.

(26:07):
It's true hot off the presses. We have made it
back to this boat. It's Elizabeth's thirtieth birthday. Is he
is dealing with James and rob being children about her
new position. They're just ribbing and robbing her, like just
being like, okay, is he all right? We'll do exactly
as you say. And she's just like fucking dick bags.

(26:31):
And then there was a great moment where Rachel drops
a spoon in the galley and she says fuck me
in the ass, which I was like, clip it and
use it, drip, and she's so everything with her is
just like how fucking fuck a fucking stab you in
the fucking nuts, you fucking bitch. I'm like, damn, dude,

(26:51):
who are you? I love it? I love Rachel. I'm sorry.
I won't deny. I know she is cuckoo for Coco puffs,
like Captain Le. Let's say Rachel's a friend of yours.
What do you like to do with her? Oh no,
I don't, no, no, no, no, I don't love comes
over to your house, she brings a bottle of vodka.
And what Rachel is a friend of a friend that

(27:12):
I'm like every once and I'm like, yeah, bring her fucket.
But no, no, I'm not hanging out with Rachel under
any regard. I'm not trying to die. Okay. I love
her on TV far away from me. Yes, I might
hang out with her once every six months when I
let that friend who has better friends with her bring
her to whatever we're doing, because I'm like, fucking I

(27:33):
want to see something. I want to see a bottle
be thrown across the room tonight, because you know she's
great at Like if there's a coffee shop with a
real bitchy barista, You're like, I'm bringing Elizabeth with me.
I mean Rachel with me next time I come here
and see what happens. Yeah, she'll read her down. Yeah,
because you know the segment of society I want to

(27:54):
take down most are people who earn coffee shop wages.
I know. Interesting. I would bring her to like a
rowdy bar and then like stand back and just wait.
I probably would't even drink myself. I would just observe.
I'd bring her to a sports bar in Chicago or
something like a Cobbs bar. Maybe got her real real

(28:18):
soaked up and see what happens. Can espresso martinis. And
then I figured out this is what I'd do. I'd
bring her to the bank and then while she's having
like a meltdown with the teller, m I sneak, I
go around and get some money. Yeah, fill out my pocket.
No one knows. Everyone's looking at this crazy lady. I'd

(28:40):
bring her as my plus one when I give birth,
because I would like her to scream at everyone and
make sure I get my own room. It's interesting. I
would probably bring her to mediate my divorce. M hmm,
just let her fucking rip someone to shreds that I'm divorcing.
I would buy hire her as a lawyer, even though

(29:01):
she's not qualified to defend me in court. A smart Hey, guys. Yeah,
it's great, She's perfect for that any like car dealership,
Bring Rachel, guys, tweeted us, where where would you bring Rachel?
Because I'm curious because she seems like she's just been
good to have. Yeah, a few espresso Martini's in and

(29:25):
let her loose, that would be good. Alright. So Francesca
calls Elizabeth into a meeting to be like, hold on
Chis and Ross. I'm so disappointed in the Elizabeth. I
really thought you'd be bringing the professionalism, but you're not.
And this is the final straw. Elizabeth's just like, huh
when and Francesca's like, she's doing this to push my

(29:49):
buttons and then she starts crying, which is ridiculous. It's
not that personal. There's no way Elizabeth's doing this to
push your buttons. Because I thought the crying. I was like,
it's not personal, Eliza, it's just dumb. That's it. That's it.
I used to be a camp counselor and like, at
at one point like a camp director, So I've been
like a supervisor for people for a little bit in
like really high stress situations, and it's sort of similar

(30:13):
to yachting, very differently but similar where you're like working
twenty four hours a day essentially, so I can understand
the stress, but the leadership style of of Francisco is
so twisted to me. I was trained to like give
some you give some positives, you kind of like sandwich
in positive and then you talk about negatives and then
you get a positive. There's literally nothing nice being said

(30:36):
and then the crying. It's like so unprofessional. So when
when Elizabeth, yeah, she's so annoying and apparently she's not
doing anything, but like when she's like, hey, this is
like unprofessional, it's like fun, Yeah, it is like really unprofessional.
So it's like I do understand that. It's just I
wanted to say that because it's like pretty wild to watch. Yeah.
To me, it's like the fact that she's taking it
so personally, Like when Elizabeth and is here talking in

(31:00):
the room and is he called Elizabeth a twatt and
she's like accusing Elizabeth of doing that on purpose, speaking
loudly so she would hear her. It's like it's not
they're not Elizabeth does not want to be in more trouble,
Like Elizabe's trying to avoid trouble, but she's a dumb, dumb.
So she keeps like literally tripping and falling into it,
like that's just who she is. She's, you know, sweet person.

(31:21):
Yeah a little some things are not really connecting up there,
but like it's not personal. And I can understand how
she started to take it personal, but like it's not personal.
She's not trying to push your buttons. It's Elizabeth the girls.
There's no, there's no like she's not a vicious person
in any way. And I don't know what Francesca is seeing,

(31:42):
but I'm not seeing this like malicious side that Francesca
is like trying to project onto her of like she's
doing this to funk with me, she's trying to ruin me,
And it's like she's not She's just dumb. That's it.
It's as simple as that. She's just a little dumb,
dumb with a kind heart who doesn't see she's sucking up.
She's a little bit of an airhead. That's it. I

(32:04):
don't get it. But anyway, it leads to Francesca going
into her room and crying and she tells us she's
like I can't deal it. Chelis and Rastle, like I
get my Australian X back, I can't deal with it anymore,
and and ashes like, I'm done with Elizabeth too, I'm
done with her. And then they both I don't I

(32:26):
don't know. They come up with some plan, but we'll
get to that in a little bit. But James says
like is he's trying to get James to do something
for Elizabeth's birthday, and he's like, I'm not Elizabeth's boyfriend.
I'll do my best as a friend to make sure
she has her day because it's her birthday. I actually
I'm starting to like James a lot. I think he's
really funny. I thought he was really bland at the beginning,
like had nothing to offer, But now that he's come

(32:46):
out of his shell, he's really funny to me. He's
just so like openly a funck boy. It's entertaining. Yeah.
I mean, he's a stupid idiot, and so he's the
only one who could have a conversation with Elizabeth because
he is too stupid to know how stupid she is.
I would actually argue that James is more of a

(33:09):
soft boy and maybe not as much of a fuck boy,
maybe like a mix between a fun boy and a
soft boy, only because of his um testimonials. He seems
pretty away, he's pretty aware of what he's doing and
and like everything things seem to change once Elizabeth kind
of wronged him and if or insulted him or didn't

(33:29):
stand up for him with Rachel, you know, and he
and he seemed to like kind of shift pretty heavily,
like obviously, I mean we can get there, but um,
he is just like being so passive aggressive. But yeah,
it's like fun boy, soft boy kind of well, he
basically says he just has not ever recovered from some

(33:51):
his like ex girlfriend cheating on him, cheating him a while. Yeah,
all right, right, I mean honestly, yeah, I actually yes,
he doesn't. He legit does not know how to get
over it, and like you need to fucking confront her
about they need. They just don't talk to each about anything.

(34:11):
Like young people are so proud of their walls, Like
they so want to brag about how big their walls are,
like to explain away their inability to form relationships. You
don't understand. I'm like a hardass bitch, which is why
I will die alone and be unhappy about it. That

(34:32):
the Hank killing effect? Who's Hank killing that's like I
don't know the hank killing of it, you know, just
putting it away, just like deep deep in your stomach. Okay, yeah,
we don't talk about that. Okay, you're right. That's a
good thing, like that about it. Yeah, you're right. All right. Well,
Francesca takes Captain leeh his coffee and she takes the

(34:54):
opportunity to snitch on James and Elizabeth, and Captain Ly
gets all pissed and he's like, that's a no, oh no,
there is no sleeping in the cabins. So he calls
Eddie in to confirm, and Eddie's like, yeah, I don't know,
sure whatever, Uh, thank you, Eddie. I want to work
on Eddie's boat. And he's just like, yeah, sure, if
you caught him, you caught him. I don't know, man,

(35:15):
smooth sail and good thing. We're on the islands. No
corona here for now, all right, guys, is he you're
the best? I'm just chilling. That's like his whole vibe
right now. And so they called James in to confirm,
and that's when Captain Lee says, if you're gonna be
playing hide your salami with his girlfriend, you're gonna get
in trouble, okay. And then so he called jameson and

(35:36):
he's like, no more sleeping in the goddamn cabins. James
is like, okay, yes, sir, and then he walks out
and he says, is Captain Lee being unfair? No, but
what I do it again? Yes, which I was like, well, okay,
I can't come out of that. He's aware of the
knew it was illegal or whatever against the rules first

(35:57):
before they did it. I mean they must have, of
course they do. You don't think they mentioned that, you know,
you know how you all sleep in coffins and there's
just empty palatial suits. Well you can't go in them.
I'm sure someone says that. Well, I think it's in
the rule book of who cares? That's what they don't.

(36:19):
They just don't care. And I wouldn't care either. It's like, okay,
if I could get away with it, I'm getting away
with it. Unfortunately, this boat is full of snitches a k.
A Ash because Ash is the one who originally told
Francesco about it, because is he didn't say ship, because
is he don't care because is he's in a leadership position.
But she don't give a fuck. Even Eddie was like,

(36:41):
I mean, sure, maybe it happened. I don't know. I
love Izzie's journey this episode where she's just like begging
people that she beat to congratulate her on beating them. Yeah,
you guys, it seems like you don't even care that
I a stewardess when this seasons are did and your boss,

(37:01):
it's like, you don't love it with the full Well,
they should love it because she's a woman and she's
gonna beat them all. But it's also like two dumb dumbs.
One guy who very like his personality is now like
not being interested in the fact that is he is
his boss, and the other guy who's just like, I'll

(37:24):
funk again and that's it. It's like, do you really
need these guys approval? Like they're pretty whatever. Like you
got the approval you need, which is Eddie your boss,
Like you're good, dude, fun funk. These dudes, they're literally
like dumb and dumber. One of them is going to
go back to the forest and search for gold and
not talk to anyone for six months. I think you're fine.

(37:46):
The other guy probably has HPV that he's spreading, you know,
so I want to worry about it, and no one's
getting paid more, so yeah, just tell him what to do.
If they talk back, tell Edie be like these dudes
are being ship acts. Boom oh hey Umzzy. I wanted
to say thanks, um, because when my friends and family

(38:07):
watch this, they'll notice that I'm not very good at
my job and I have you two thank so thanks. Thanks. Well, yeah,
maybe you should have more of a personality, So Francesca
tells Captain Lee. She says, hold on, Chi and Ross.
I can't look on the boat with Elizabeth on it.
And it's like, what's a really good impression? Like I

(38:32):
don't even get like she's the tamest human being on planet.
Elizabeth is like all about energy. Like no one who's
been all about energy has ever rubbed me this way.
Like what is she doing is she's stealing things from
your bathroom? Like relax, it's just not that big a

(38:52):
deal that you can't even be on a boat with her,
I mean the laundry room and shut the funk up,
that's right, It's just like put her in there, keeping
the door, don't let her out. Do you think that
James and Elizabeth's relationship, like their dynamic is like pissing
people to funk off. Is that cannot be explaining part

(39:15):
of this? Well yeah, so last week's guests said John
Pemberton said that he thinks that Francesca is jealous of
Elizabeth and James is dynamic, which is why she's like
taking it out on Elizabeth. Now, I don't know if
I agree with that necessarily. I don't really understand what
the big deal is. I don't know if Francesca is
just like narrowed in on Elizabeth because she's just not

(39:36):
that great a worker and has decided that she will
be her ship bag this season. But to the level
that Francesca is taking it, I feel like I'm missing something. Yeah,
she's um, she's gone the extra mile. Um, she's she's
beating the dead horse. It's like, come on, dude, coronavirus
is gonna rip through these islands in about twenty minutes.

(39:57):
I want to worry about it. This season is over. Like,
just get through it without contracting a fucking virus in
a global pandemic. That's all you gotta do. I would
not worry so much about little Elizabeth with her crystals
and her bra don't worry about excited for Francesca to
see this. I mean, you know, obviously she's seen the
season now and she's heard on social media about her behavior,

(40:21):
and I think that's always like the silver lining in
this ship, you know, because she's gonna see it and
she's gonna have a realization. I'm just curious if they're
going to ask her back. No, zero chance zero. The
audience hates her very little Christmas. She's also got no
interesting storyline except her bitch for in some way we

(40:44):
can't understand why. But there was a little there was
like a thread, right, a little spark between her and
was it robbed? And he was like, I like Rocks
and Peter, like you know, I'm on the times. Yeah, Okay.

(41:05):
So Francesca basically asked Captain Lee to find a new
stew for her, and Captainly says it's gonna be hard
this far in the season, but he'll try and sozz
He and Elizabeth they talk about how it's becoming such
a toxic work environment with Francesca being a dick and
then Robin and James being like so weird about Issy's promotion,

(41:26):
and Elizabeth just hopes that like James will do something
nice for her birthday, which I'm like, don't hold your breath.
This is not the place. But Francesca is again back
to crying to Ash how about how Elizabeth and James
slept in a guest cabin and it's like this is
getting old real quick, and she's like, they're just she's

(41:47):
just not helpful enough, and they're like complaining about how
she doesn't work when literally like they're cutting back and
forth between Elizabeth working, So I'm like, what what what
is what are we doing here? Uh? And then Ash
starts crying and I'm like, what the fuck are you
guys crying about? She's fine, this is not worth your tears.
And I do think it's because they're both just stressed

(42:09):
that it is all coming out on Elizabeth. But it's like,
come on, man. Ashe has this absurd suggestion that they
get rid of Elizabeth and just do the charter with
just the two of them, which I'm like, why fuck
out of here with this suggestion, and then Francesca comes
to her senses and decides they can't do it because
the guests there are a lot of work. The Queen

(42:30):
of Versailles is coming on. They can't risk that they
need her the queen is the Queen is coming. A
woman who asks people to call her the queen is
coming and we're gonna do it. There seems to be
like a Florida theme where people think they're the queen.
Because on The Bachelor right now, there's another woman from
Fort Lauderdale. Her name is Victorian. She goes by Queen Victorian.

(42:53):
She really truly seems to believe she's royalty. Now. I
don't know what Florida is feeding you in their water,
but none of you are loyalty. You're from Florida. I'm sorry. Look,
I want to get this trending. Okay, maybe I'll talk
to Wall Street Bets on Reddit see if they can
push this next time. Okay, go ahead, this is what
I want. If somebody asks you to call them queen

(43:16):
or king or whatever, prince, princess and they're not that thing,
slap them in the face. Now, if somebody is that thing,
two slaps. Stop saying your king or queen of ship.
There's nothing more unlikable. You did not deserve to be

(43:38):
among normal people. If that's how you go through life.
Slap her in the face. It's there's no chill to it.
And I don't care for it. And it also makes
no sense because you're not actually royalty. You made your psychopath.
You made your money on the backs of people who
you underpaid, So shut up and their nouveaux reach, right, Yeah, yeah,

(44:00):
there doesn't even make they're not kind of invented the
model of um time shares, and so all of his
resorts are time share resorts, and his sons are now
you know, the head of not these sons, his older
sons from his he said he'd had about he had women,

(44:22):
he had kids with about three women. He's like, you know,
like he doesn't know um. And so yeah, his older
sons are in charge of the business. And there's just
everything you want nepotism, um, you know, like uh illegal
you know things about like you know, there's insider trading

(44:42):
and and inventing an industry to destroy poor people. Um.
You know, he made his money, like you know, hundreds
of dollars at a time from people with a dream.
Just a real evil piece of ship. Also put a
lot of money into getting uh, George Bush, George W.
Bush elected, And if you watch that documentary Queen of Versailles,

(45:04):
he spends all of his time in his room, just
like asking people for money, making calls and begging people
for money so he can continue to build his house,
which is bigger than everyone else's house. Well, I'm glad
that Bravos reckoning with racism and you know, social justice
issues by putting them on and humanizing them. That's good.

(45:26):
I know they really fucking do. That's the problem. They're like,
and you've experienced trauma speak honest to create some sort
of layer of humanity in your life, and it's exactly exactly.
But anyway, yeah, so um okay, so this was weird.
So later on in the episode, when Elizabeth's being like, oh,
I'm so stressed about this situation where Francesca ashes like

(45:47):
don't worry about a girl, just don't think about it,
and it's like, you fuck fuck you Ash ashes really
starting to annoy me. It's like, just if you're going
to be a shade ball, be like, hey, look, man,
pull your fucking weight. Say the same ship Francescas it
is saying, so at least she gets a hint that
ship's not good for her instead of being like, girl,
don't worry about don't think about it, don't think about

(46:07):
the fact that you're about to get fucking fired because
there's a coup against you. Let's take another quick break
and we'll come back and finish this episode out a
And we are back, baby, And guess what. These lovely
guests that we so calmly just critiqued are here, baby,

(46:31):
they are They are coming on the boat. And the
dad oh man, David Versailles. See, I gotta remember their
last name. David Versaillah is here. Uh. And he is
so fucking old. He's so old, dude. He shows up
with his own sweet tea with vodka, like do you

(46:52):
want champagoe? Like, hebra my own drink and they're like, okay, sir,
do you need to sit down? Did anyone's see any
details about that drink? After the Queen of being a
piece of shit said it's his styrofoam cup, and she said,
never throw away his styrofoam cup, which means this guy

(47:14):
is known for taking styrofoam cups everywhere he goes. He's
is if he's not fucking evil, he's known for loving styrofoam.
The cars engines. Yeah, he's just like it's like a
roading away in his little mouth. Yeah. Yeah, he's a
little way in of styrofoam cups. But anyway, he's just
at one point lays down on a bed and they're like,

(47:35):
this is not your room, honey, honey, this is not
your room, and he's like what. But then he's like,
I'm just testing it out, and I'm like cool, Dad, Joe.
And then at one point he sits down at the
table and someone's like, oh, it's so nice being rich,
and he literally says, I wonder what the poor people
are doing today? Unreal than that? Um one of my

(48:01):
dad's most often said phrases for when like he would
get like a bonus at work, or he would get,
you know, a raise or something. He would come home,
we'd celebrate, would have dinner, and he would say, I
wonder what the poor people are doing now, which is
a joke because we're poor, and so it's funny when

(48:21):
people who aren't mega millionaires, their billionaires say it, it's
a joke. But when he says it, he does deserve
to be slapped. And I was also thinking like instead
of or like instead of like how are you, or
like oh all right, they go what the part people
are doing today? When about the more people are doing
today that's kind of how I saw it as well.
Kind of it was just like a greeting. We would live,

(48:42):
don't I do? Wonder? How are the poor people doing today?
None of your business, your piece of ship, you're ruining them.
But yeah. One of his shitty sons walks up to
Captain Lee and goes in his weird monotone droll, what
part of the crew are you? Then at one point
he goes like, maybe my dad will buy this boat.

(49:04):
I'm like, what, that's the life you live? Maybe mine?
Now mine? Noma? Anyway, Dotty, she did not give me
any how does see data by the boat? Dottie Shara's
boss god that was missing. Captain Lee threatened to slap them.

(49:25):
I think after that, right, like, I'll slap you after head.
One of the kids to who so the kid with
the decadent mouth. I think was going to stop him.
I missed it, missed it. Well. I wish he would.
I wish you would. Well. Anyway, the father David, introduces

(49:46):
his family to Captain Lee and they share their stories
about losing their children to drug overdoses, which is very
weird sobering moment on this show. And the asshole sons
are chatting up Ash and they say they're like, our
euro trip canceled. We didn't cancel it, they canceled it
because of what's going on. And then he goes, the
media is way out of proportion, and I'm like, did

(50:08):
your dad write these talking points? Jesus Christ, the media
is out of proportion. Bro. They they had like a
bunch of sound clips that were so annoying, like when
they were playing with the power surfing water toy thing,
and they one of them asks Eddie, who gets in
trouble if I damage it? And Eddie's like, you you
get in trouble. I'm not familiar with that. I'm very

(50:35):
confused by which you mean that I have any consequence? Okay,
So Rachel thinks Francesca, okay, so this is the Mahima
Hey tobaccle. Rachel thinks Francesca fucked up the lunch order,
but she misread the paper because Francesca wrote it in
a very confusing manner which we discussed earlier, which she
wrote two orders on the same line, so Rachel counts

(50:58):
for Mahi mahi orders went who are on the same line,
so it's technically five. But Rachel says She's just unhappy
with service regardless, and she like tries to talk to
Captain Lee about it, but Captain Lee's like, I don't
really need this right now. It doesn't really acknowledge what's
going on. That was kind of weird. I think Rachel
just kind of has like doesn't have very good uh

(51:18):
good grace with him right now since she like quit
and came back a day later. But yeah, well, also,
how could I mean she just screams obscenities all day long.
No one likes her. I like her like Coot or Nick.
You don't have to live with her. It's inappropriated for like,
she has very little social skills in the sense of
like you stormed off the boat and like you're gonna

(51:40):
get into the captain and complain and just just like
a minor funk up. It's like, come on, there's no
need to go to talk to Lee about that. No,
this is so fucking stupid. It's over. No one cares
that got away with it. Um, she doesn't. She didn't
like her before, she doesn't like her now. How're you
gonna say? How did you guys think that Ash handled
the drunk the drunk babies by the way I wanted

(52:02):
to ask, like, how do you think she maneuvered that?
I think they she handled it pretty well. She was
able to distract them a lot. I do think maybe
those kids are going to try and snitch on her
because I don't trust them. Yeah, I think they're going
to try and put her in jeopardy. But I do
think Captain Lee will take her side because Captain Lee
is like so strict about these sorts of things, and

(52:22):
they're like that one could drink like half a bottle
of Hennessy like he might if he had drank more
like I would have been concerned that something would have
happened to him. Captain Lee always has his I feel
he always has his employees backs. And also I think
he's very sensitive to like drinking and like debauchery on
the boat after a certain hour. Like the fact that
that kid jumped in the tender I think is like

(52:45):
a big no no. And if Captain Lee had been there,
that kid would have gotten slapped in the back of
the head. Right. She was smart to be like, let's
get off the swim platform and like be like, unfortunately,
I can't serve you anymore because he was acting. I
don't know, it felt like it was going somewhere that
could have potentially been dangerous, and I thought she was
quick to shut it down. I mean, it was awkward

(53:07):
that she was like, I can't serve you anymore, because
it's like he could have been like based on what rule.
But let's hope he doesn't remember any of it, so
we can't snitch her out anyway. After the weird tobacco
with Rachel and Francesca, uh, they have a weird, awkward
exchange over it about how Francesca wrote it down, and
then they agree that they're going to change the way
it's written down. And I'm like, that sucks because their roommates,

(53:29):
so like, this ship is unavoidable. And that's why I
think Francesco should worry about a relationship with Rachel and
not Elizabeth, who really doesn't isn't like going to change
anything in the grand scheme of this uh service plan. Man,
nobody here should worry about their relationship with anybody. Everyone

(53:50):
on here is a fool, thank you. That is that
is insight. They are all. I mean, remember what sucks.
No one, not one of these people is coming back.
You don't think so I thought a chance, Yeah, Eddie
always comes back. Eddie's done, dude, Eddie has done two seasons,
y'all three? All right, yeah, no one else will come back.

(54:14):
I agree, But I don't even think, because how do
I just don't just I'm done with it. Wash our
fucking hands. All these people are coronavirus tainted. Okay, I
could see is he being brought back as a boson
in the future, I mean, no way. Interesting. She doesn't
really bring Yeah, she's fragile, and she has like she's

(54:36):
not inconsistent enough, and she doesn't really bring much to
the table in terms of I don't know. Yeah, she's
like too consistent almost, and she's not pretty funny interesting. Okay,
So what you're saying is you think Eddie is really funny. Huh. Yeah.
I'm a fan of Eddie as a boss, as like
a boss kind of that's how he treats people, and

(54:58):
I actually kind of think a he's funny. Interesting. Look,
we we here at Deckheads are huge fans of Eddie's impressions.
He stopped doing them as much this season, but every
once in a while we get it old every once
in a while and thrive on those moments. I absolutely
they grind my gears in a way where I'm like, God,

(55:19):
damn it, Eddie, but I love him. I live for them.
Oh this is um. This is actually his fourth season, Eddie, Right,
that's what I'm saying. He's done three before this. Remember
third season he left after he gasolit Rocky, so he
poofed because he was like, I can't handle the shame.
And I guess he feels like he's lived it off
at this point and has come back. Hey Eddie, we

(55:40):
never forget. We will never forget what you did too, Rocky. Anyway,
So and I watched one of her live we will
never forget you did other day, just the saddest man
I watched it. You know, I'm like, I'm always hoping
they always come up. She goes live all the time,
and every time I get on, it's just so sad

(56:01):
because it's like me and eight other people. This one
she was just like eating, she was eating, saying nothing,
just like really happily eating a banana and honey and
like peanut butter, but just separately, its just eating it,
like dancing around. Just that. It just makes me sad

(56:26):
when I see someone living their life that way. You
want people to watch you want eight weirdos just looking
for content for their podcast to watch you eat a banana,
You fucking weirdo. Get out of here, please. You clicked it.
You're all in it. You're like, eat that banana, Rocky,
eat that banana. Well yeah that was my comment. But

(56:46):
I'm just trying to get dirty girl. They were only
eating the banana. Was there any other like part of it?
She was just eating a banana with some honey and
some peanut butter in different containers, just sticking her finger
and eating, you know, eating them all in one bite,
but not putting them together. You know what I mean? There? Anyway,
it's not I cannot believe I spent all right, Yeah,

(57:09):
let's finish this episode out. So um, everyone started to
talk about coronavirus more seriously, and Eddie keeps saying the
best place to be is on the islands. But it's like,
why everyone's traveling to those islands. That's like prime way
of traveling coronavirus to those islands, So good luck. Captain
Lye is hoping the dinner conversation that night with the
guests isn't heavy. This is interesting. He's like, I hope

(57:31):
it doesn't get heavy because I don't want to have
to go through all these heavy memories I have of
my son and the loss and all that. But I
want to say he brings up the conversation I felt
I felt from there. Yeah, of course I felt bad
for him too, But I was like, if you didn't
want to have that heavy conversation, don't initiate the heavy conversation,
my friend. You could have eaten. Yeah I think he

(57:55):
wanted to. Yeah, well, yeah, I know what you mean.
But like he's so deep in it and grieving, like
you know, I can't. I can't believe he's still doing
this show, Like he should have taken some time off, right,
but I guess he can't. Maybe also this helps him
keep his mind off of it because he's working and
staying busy. But that's still stuff to go through that Also,
like on a reality show, boy Well, Rob tells Izzy

(58:20):
that she got promoted to lead Shammy, which to which
I will say, that is the most like to him.
That's like cutthroat because he lacks such a personality that
the fact that he would say that, I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa, Rob,
calm down, that's too far for such a simple man.
That is way too far to be fair. This this

(58:41):
is like the promotional equivalent to being promoted to assistant
to the regional manager. It's like Dwight coming out and
being like, why aren't you guys celebrating the fact that
I'm assistant to the regional manager. Well, because he's great,
and you know it's important because she's a woman, and
all you ever hear about are the old salty sea

(59:02):
dogs and not the women. So this is huge for
us women to be lead Shammy, Nick, Why aren't you
men excited about what I've done for women? Hey, I'm
not sure you've done anything for women, but be I
don't we work here. We work here. We wanted that job.

(59:26):
There's no way they wanted that job. Did Rob have
early testimonials talking about like women's rights and stuff? I
feel like I remember that, it's like kind of early
once about that or like equality. I don't recall. Okay,
he hasn't really said a lot, unfortunately, so sometimes I
don't know. I don't know. Well. At dinner, the guests

(59:47):
get the news alert that Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson
got coronavirus and that all travel from Europe is being
shut down and the old fuck David says coronavirus is
no worse than the flu. I like, you better hope
you don't fucking get it, bro. I'm glad they left
that in. Yeah, well of course they did of questions

(01:00:08):
that he's not like in the editing bay. Oh you
think he owns Bravo ink or whatever. Wouldn't be surprised, right, Yeah,
Like why do they keep coming back on this? You know? Yeah,
keep coming back. I don't know. I think they just
pay and they're like cool, guess perfect bring them on
because I think it's important for them to be famous.
And the yacht is discounted half off exactly. And I

(01:00:31):
also think, like after a while, like you can't get
like real, real, like dignified rich people on this show
because they're in on it. They're like, I'm not gonna
go on the reality show and be edited to look
like a goddamn fool. You have to get the ship bags,
because the ship bags don't give a funk. They'll come on,
they'll do their thing, they'll be assholes or whatever, they'll
look like a goddamn jerk, and they'll leave you not

(01:00:52):
think about it. Well anyway, So um, is he in
the deck crew make Elizabeth a fairy bread cake for
her birthday because Rachel never got around to making her one.
And what is a fairy bread cake anyone? I think
it might be a New Orleans thing. I could be wrong, though,
because it's similar to a king cake with the baby
in it. Oh thank you, it's yeah, that's kincake. Yeah,

(01:01:17):
it says fairy bread is sliced white bread, spread with
butter or margine and covered it with hundreds and thousands
are hundreds and thousands served at children's parties in Australia,
New Zealand. Oh, it's just like sprinkles. M it's Australian.
So yeah, that's interesting. So I guess its just like

(01:01:37):
making a dessert out of white bread. Okay, Well they
make her that for her birthday and they present it
to her and she loves it and she's like, oh
my god. And then she just hopes that James gives
her a little kiss. I know he's not going to
give her a little kiss, which, you know what, you
don't need him, Elizabeth, you don't need him. But Captain

(01:01:59):
Lee at dinner asks the main primaries, Jackie and David
for advice. I'm coping with the loss of his son.
And they asked, like how did he get into drugs
and he's like, you know, he had demons that we
couldn't fix and that his wife isn't doing well because
he was the only product of him and his wife,
which I did not know. And that is fucking devastating

(01:02:20):
to lose your only son. Jesus fucking Christ. I guess
Mary Anne's only son, not Captain Lee's only son or child.
So Captain Lee said, so okay, it gets very emotional
and very heavy, and Captain Lee gets up because it
starts to hit him, and he's like, I just need
a minute. And then he like walks out back into
the bridge and like it is like kind of getting

(01:02:40):
emotional and kind of maybe possibly crying. We can't see,
we can just hear him. And he's like, pull yourself together,
pull yourself together. And then he says that he's learning
skills to cope with his sadness and he really wants
to use these skills to help his wife and his
family because he needs to be strong for them. So
he goes back out and he's like, thank you for
your help, to your advice and like thanks to them,

(01:03:01):
and he's like, sorry, I had to leave. I just
needed a minute, and they're very nice to him, and
I thought that was very that was a very sweet
moment with a bunch of scary white people. So this
is where Ash is staying up to take care of
the Sun's who want to drink all night and they're
they're really grossed, and one of them wants to go
to the jacuzzi, but Ash tells him it's out of
order and it's draining. But he goes up and sees

(01:03:23):
it full, then asks for more alcohol and Ash says
she can't serve him anymore, and then he like drunk rambles.
He's like, I want you guys to have fun, like
I'll do the work and you guys enjoying yourselving. I'll
make breakfast and you guys enjoy yours some this is
your Imancasian and then he goes to bed and that's
where the episode ends, and I think he's very lucky

(01:03:45):
he did not fall off board, and James meanwhile was
standing there doing funk all James just making sure he
doesn't go in the tender. I guess right, but he didn't.
If you watch it, he was like, not actually doing it,
He's just standing. He's like not's not really help thing,
in my opinion, he just h what whoops? Oh, you

(01:04:09):
would kill someone in the water. I am going to
wait ten minutes and alert the captaine so that your
your move would be let him go, let him do
him m hm yeah why. I probably would have called
his mother. I would have called his mother bag Jackie,
get up here. Your son is out of control. Huh.

(01:04:33):
And what would you have done? Eric? I would have
been like, look in the water, there's like a new
there's like an apple watch. There's like a there's like
a new like whatever the missing is. And he's like,
all right, is it time for boat facts? With nicky tease?
It's time for boat facts when niken tease? Okay, guys.

(01:04:53):
This type of boat could also be used as ice
breaker or a salvage boat, and many of this type
of boat have firefighting monitors allowing them to assist in firefighting.
This type of boat is mainly for one thing, but
it could be used as icebreaker, salvage boat, or even

(01:05:16):
a firefighting boat. What boat am I? It's a type
of boat A a tug boat. Yeah, they of course
Eddie is a tug boat captain in the harbor in Baltimore,

(01:05:38):
And uh, we often make fun of them because it's
a hilarious type of boat to specialize in. But there
are more things that a tug boat can do than
just tug boats. How many tugs could a tugboat tug
if a tug boat didn't only tug boats? Well? Three
back to you. Wow, that was a total s because

(01:06:00):
that's the only boat I know. That's like the working boat,
I guess. Also, Uh, the ones that carry all those
shipping containers. What are those ones called cargo ships? Cargo ships?
There you go a little bit about the harbor variant
of tug boats. Compared to seagoing tug boats. Harbor tug
boats are generally smaller, and their width to length ratio

(01:06:21):
is often higher due to the need for a lower
draft in smaller harbors. These are often also termed lunch
bucket boats. I think we should call ed a lunch
bucket boat. Okay, lunch bucket yeah, yeah, because they're only
manned when needed and only at a minimum. Thus the
crew will bring their own lunch with them. That's why

(01:06:44):
they lunch bucket bo LBB. Yeah. Lbb lbb eddie. Hell yeah,
