Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Survivor is back, baby.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
What are you doing?

Speaker 1 (00:05):
You have a theme song?

Speaker 3 (00:06):
I have a theme song?

Speaker 2 (00:08):
Hours?

Speaker 1 (00:08):
Oh sorry, sorry, you've not had one for like like
ten weeks in a row, so I got used to
just starting.

Speaker 3 (00:15):
This is the real show, PD. Okay, here it comes.

Speaker 1 (00:19):
That's how you do it.

Speaker 2 (00:21):
Jeh my coule arm still stuck?

Speaker 4 (00:25):
What is this surprivor?

Speaker 5 (00:27):
Do you want to pick it? Go to a park?

Speaker 2 (00:30):
I wish I could hug myself, but that's weird.

Speaker 1 (00:33):
This is making the merge, but we can remember window.

Speaker 3 (00:40):
I'm a dog person.

Speaker 5 (00:41):
Hours, let's go down.

Speaker 6 (00:43):
You told me your dog was sick.

Speaker 2 (00:45):
I'm coming over and over.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
You know I crack.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
You either. It's not about the me dollars. All I
wanted to do is.

Speaker 1 (01:08):
Tar Tar tarts. We're back, baby, Survivor is officially back.
I said it was back on the pregame show, Eyelid.
Now it's back. How are we feeling?

Speaker 4 (01:17):
All right? I'm pumped out of my mind PD. I
wish I could hug myself, but that'd be weird.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
I forgot about that quote.

Speaker 3 (01:25):
Great, I did too.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
When was that? When did you say that?

Speaker 3 (01:28):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (01:29):
He said that after he won the challenge where he cheated, Yeah, got.

Speaker 6 (01:36):
Cheated for the wind Man. I can't wait to talk
about that point.

Speaker 1 (01:38):
Dude.

Speaker 6 (01:40):
A god has been ordained by the Fijian Survivor players
and his name is Riz.

Speaker 7 (01:47):
A straight up steam, a steam steeler, a scene stealer.
He is in charge of every scene that he shows
up in immediately.

Speaker 6 (01:56):
He's also I think the top contender to take Jeff's
job because he will not shut up during challenges. It's
the best.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
That's true.

Speaker 4 (02:07):
Okay, before we dive in, PD tell people that maybe
they're tuning in for the first time. Forty nine Episode one,
What is Making the Merge? What are we doing here?

Speaker 1 (02:16):
Making the Merge? Is a Survivor podcast where we what Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
Believe it was a Big Brother podcast?

Speaker 1 (02:24):
What it's Sometimes it's a big brother podcast. Sometimes it's
about big Brother Katy Perry. Some weeks, this week it's
about Survivor. So the four of us, Jonathan Wright, myself,
p D Brand and Chase will compete in a draft
a week from now. We're going to try to decide
who we think is going to win the season and

(02:45):
take home the Jody Newell Cup.

Speaker 6 (02:48):
That's right. One thing that I want to point out
one thing that I want to point out about our draft.
This is what is this year, season five or six
of doing the draft. Every single one of us has
won the draft at least one except for Brand.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (03:03):
Yeah, well I think that's a little misleading. This is
only my second draft, so that.

Speaker 6 (03:10):
Means won the last one.

Speaker 3 (03:12):
I could have.

Speaker 4 (03:13):
But you know what I've I'm taking a lot of
what I learned last season and applying it to this season,
and I feel great about not coming in last.

Speaker 7 (03:22):
You know, Brand, just to give you a little piece
of advice, as the previous season's winner, it took me
approximately three to finally bring in a win, and.

Speaker 6 (03:33):
Then you had to have your wife help you.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
Right right.

Speaker 7 (03:35):
I know that y'all are saying that, but you don't
mean it right. You don't mean you don't mean that
you think that I did a good job, right like
you think everybody thinks I did.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
Why is everyone so pretty good?

Speaker 3 (03:48):
I did a good season. I think we're gonna have
a lot of fun. Let's dive into.

Speaker 1 (03:54):
It, all right, let's do it. Let's kick off the
first recap of season forty nine with the boat three
little boats. I thought we were getting a big boat.
Turns out three little boats.

Speaker 3 (04:05):
But guys, I was so excited.

Speaker 4 (04:09):
We get word a couple of weeks ago that we're
going back.

Speaker 3 (04:13):
To the marooning, and I'm now, we're going to do the.

Speaker 4 (04:17):
Thing where we're all like trying to jump off and
catch a chicken and stuff. Yeah, we're just in three
little boats before.

Speaker 3 (04:28):
The challenge instead of after the challenge.

Speaker 6 (04:30):
So, and they didn't even jump in the water or anything.

Speaker 3 (04:35):
No, they're dry.

Speaker 7 (04:37):
I didn't even think about it until you you sent
that message in the Patreon chat.

Speaker 2 (04:42):
By the way, people, you can join our Patreon. We
had a pretty good time.

Speaker 7 (04:45):
But I didn't think about it until you mentioned, like,
what kind of a marooning is this? That they had
said they were going back to it, And I mean, yes,
And it totally passed me because I didn't even think
of it like a maroony.

Speaker 3 (04:56):
By definition, Yes, they didn't.

Speaker 6 (04:59):
Maroon brand had a great joke in the in the
patrioch chat last night when this was happening, where he goes,
what's the point of giving him a map? The driver
of the boat knows where.

Speaker 4 (05:08):
He's going, you know, It's so funny. He's like, here's
a map to your place. They could literally tear that
sucker up. They'd been fine, it's not like that. The
driver of the boat is like, does anybody have a map?

Speaker 3 (05:21):
Does anything?

Speaker 6 (05:24):
He's he's asking Riscott and is it a left here?

Speaker 3 (05:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (05:28):
Well so we'd go around around the bend and then
what now?

Speaker 7 (05:32):
Now, imagine if they did like a special season of
Survivor though, where it was like blended with the concept
of alone.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
Have you guys watched the show? Have we talked about this?

Speaker 6 (05:44):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (05:46):
Well, I was saying, what if it was like a
really extreme season of Survivor where they were like, we
brought in a bunch of survival experts and we gave
them nothing, and we marooned them for real and did
not give them a map.

Speaker 2 (05:57):
Yeah, dumb, it sounds awesome. Sounds awesome.

Speaker 1 (06:02):
I think maybe Quibi would give that a season.

Speaker 6 (06:04):
Oh yeah, original for sure.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
No, not Quibbi.

Speaker 6 (06:10):
Maybe you could have got that picked up by the
Roku channel.

Speaker 1 (06:12):
Dog, Yeah, that's a big hit in Roku City.

Speaker 6 (06:17):
Yeah, stream stream? Are you they are starring Chase Bridges
on Channel? Oh?

Speaker 4 (06:23):
Well done?

Speaker 1 (06:26):
So on the Little Boats we get some info from
a few different players. Alex tells us one of his
favorite pastimes is kissing. But Jake Latimer was in a
magic mic group in Australia and he can charm a
woman and he knows how they work, according to him,
and I don't think he does. I don't know. He
said he does, uh, and they would scream his name
every night.

Speaker 6 (06:46):
I think he knows how to charm a man for sure.

Speaker 1 (06:49):
Yeah, definitely, Yeah, he knows how. He knows how to
charm alex uh. And then riz God helped his parents
do their texes when he was fourteen. And then Savannah says,
this is the easiest million she will have make.

Speaker 3 (07:00):
How about that?

Speaker 6 (07:02):
Yeah he's awesome.

Speaker 3 (07:03):
Yeah, that's a.

Speaker 4 (07:04):
Bold thing to say on a game that just started
have really good odds of losing their Yeah.

Speaker 6 (07:14):
I agree with her though, I mean everything that she
did in this first episode, I'm like, dude, I understand
her confidence. The funny thing about riz God too is uh,
you know, he's twenty five years old and his big
SOB story is that he had to do taxes and
he went to college.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
Well, not a SOB story, it's a success story.

Speaker 2 (07:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (07:37):
Yeah, baby, my parents made me learn excel.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
You know.

Speaker 7 (07:44):
That is kind of tough though. If my parents made
me learn excel. I might complain all those formulas.

Speaker 3 (07:49):
Get out of here.

Speaker 6 (07:50):
You ever heard of turbo tax dog h n R
blogs use code making the merge at TurboTax dot com
for fi per sent off your taxes this year h happens.

Speaker 7 (08:03):
Just try H and R block is going to have
like just an onslaught of weird codes be put in there,
like what is.

Speaker 2 (08:10):
Making the merge.

Speaker 3 (08:13):
Risk God for life? That's not.

Speaker 1 (08:16):
And if you put in promo code Chase Bridges, you
get a DVD of his Roku movie.

Speaker 3 (08:25):
Get that on physical media.

Speaker 1 (08:26):
Chase, Uh No, I got it on Blu Ray. What
are you talking about?

Speaker 2 (08:30):
They actually get an MP four file.

Speaker 1 (08:34):
Of the movie.

Speaker 2 (08:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (08:37):
For a Patreon episode is we should watch my scenes
of the movie and react to the put a bubble patriot.

Speaker 3 (08:45):
To do that.

Speaker 1 (08:46):
Yeah, we'll do a Chase vanity project.

Speaker 6 (08:49):
It's not a vanity project if I'm embarrassed by so.

Speaker 1 (08:54):
Now to the marooning. They get off their little boats
and they roll up to the sacred sands of Fiji
and stay in before their idle Jeff probst uh the yelling.
The Yellow tribe runs up, scream. I guess they are
the yelling yell that was worst. They're yelling the chance
later there's they're not wrong. I nailed it unintentionally. So

(09:17):
Jeff welcomes them to Survivor forty nine and then they
all scream, and then Jeff asks the guy in the
front left, the little guy, uh, the small girl. If
you will, Jason, True.

Speaker 2 (09:27):
I will just a small I am going to.

Speaker 1 (09:32):
This season, dude. I've actually I've been studying like millennial
cringe compilations, and I'm going to break some stuff out
this season to get back at you for the.

Speaker 6 (09:44):
Terrible the Millennial cringe compilation. I've checked out Jonathan's YouTube channel.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
I knew it was.

Speaker 4 (09:51):
Really quick though you brought it up. But we do
have team names this year, which is new new. We're
gonna have jerseys, even though this is an audio only show.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
We have true I'm gonna wear mine on Fresh from
Tribal so you'll be able to see it there.

Speaker 3 (10:08):
That's true. That's true.

Speaker 4 (10:10):
But I am brands Blindsiders, which I'm pretty excited about
the alliteration.

Speaker 7 (10:15):
I'm I'm the Flint and Steelers, but you can abbreviate
that and call me the Steelers for fun.

Speaker 1 (10:23):
And That's why I'm doing the millennial stuff because the
Steelers are my favorite football team. I love Mike Tomlin,
I love Aaron Rodgers. I hate Jonathan Wright.

Speaker 7 (10:31):
I don't know who either of those people are. So
that's why I love the Steelers.

Speaker 4 (10:35):
Look at you putting it on the record that you
love Aaron Rodgers. That's so brave of you.

Speaker 6 (10:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (10:40):
Look, I get behind whatever the Steelers do. I can
say I hate Aaron Rodgers from the time I was
twelve until last year, and then.

Speaker 4 (10:48):
Yeah, you actually think he's really insightful and not a
d bag at all.

Speaker 1 (10:52):
No, and I love his political opinions.

Speaker 2 (10:57):
PD.

Speaker 6 (10:57):
What's your team name?

Speaker 1 (10:59):
My team name is the Journeys.

Speaker 6 (11:01):
PD's journeys and my team is chases fake Idols.

Speaker 1 (11:07):
Yeah, so where was I? They're yelling and screaming, like
I said? Jeff asked the guy in the front left,
which turned out to be Jason Trull, what's all the
excitement about? Thanks, Brant, and he reveals to everyone that
he was an alternate and he found out he was
playing thirty minutes before he went to bed the previous night. Brand,

(11:27):
do you think it would be a good move to
reveal that if you were on Survivor, would you immediately
tell everybody you were the alternate.

Speaker 4 (11:34):
I actually I think they know that PD. I don't
think that's news to them. If it was, if it
would be, I'm only basing that off of the ten
minutes that I heard on on Fire this morning, which we.

Speaker 6 (11:49):
Had a cast photo with.

Speaker 3 (11:51):
Yeah, that's true.

Speaker 4 (11:53):
Yes, But from my understanding is they're all there obviously,
and they can look at each other, they can make
eye contact.

Speaker 3 (11:59):
The talking was the thing.

Speaker 4 (12:00):
They got the two players out, and the players that
were there basically thanked the casting people for kicking them
out because it was making them uncomfortable, feeling like they
had to potentially talk to other players to keep up
with the the stuff, and so they want to make
sure that it's fair obviously, so they thanked the casting

(12:21):
folks for kicking those two people off.

Speaker 3 (12:23):
So they were well aware.

Speaker 4 (12:24):
I think of the fact that Jason Jason was an alternate,
and uh I I loved I loved Jason like Jason
Jason's I mean, I got to preview him a little
bit during the preseason show, so it was already a
little bit familiar with his work.

Speaker 3 (12:42):
But I think he was one of the stars of
this episode.

Speaker 2 (12:44):
Personally, I agree.

Speaker 6 (12:46):
I think this whole cast is one of the best
ever because they eliminated two people before the game even began.

Speaker 7 (12:51):
Yeah, well they I think right away this episode we
talked about a little bit of this, like it feels
like the edit is hype for fifty and I think
that we're gonna get like, not only a good edit,
but we're gonna get people playing so hard because they
want to be back for fifty in this season. So

(13:14):
I don't know it just right out of the gate,
I feel really good about it.

Speaker 1 (13:17):
How do you feel about Sage? Because the first thing
that we found out about Sage was she collects blackheads
and a jar. We found that out her out. Yeah yeah,
we found that out in the pregame extravaganza. Check that
out if you want more background on the players. But
this time she tells us that when she's excited, she
pees a lot, and she apologized to anyone who had
to see a full moon or a half moon because

(13:39):
she has her mother's hips. So, Chase, if you got
excited when you peed, would you immediately tell everybody?

Speaker 6 (13:46):
I don't think I would have told anybody.

Speaker 1 (13:49):
I mean, I guess that's another situation where they know
because she had to do it a bunch of times,
but she didn't.

Speaker 3 (13:53):
Have to announce it in her boat. But how does
that work?

Speaker 4 (13:57):
Like, because the boat's all coming together, right, we got
three boats that are all coming in. If she's like, hey,
stop the boat, I gotta I gotta pee, does that
like all the boats.

Speaker 6 (14:08):
Have to I don't think she's stopping the boats.

Speaker 3 (14:11):
Now, you think she's just jumping out?

Speaker 4 (14:12):
And what do you think she's doing the boat?

Speaker 1 (14:15):
No?

Speaker 6 (14:15):
I think she I think I let's not talk about this.

Speaker 2 (14:19):
What you have a standard?

Speaker 6 (14:22):
Now?

Speaker 2 (14:23):
Yeah we got stop?

Speaker 8 (14:27):
So you think no, I'm gonna talk about a bridge
too far from mister bridges. So I guess with her quote,
what it does imply is that she dropped trow and
in the moving boat.

Speaker 1 (14:42):
Huh.

Speaker 6 (14:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (14:42):
You know what this reminds me of is my in
laws dog. When she gets really excited, she teas and
they have a real problem with it.

Speaker 2 (14:50):
So that's the first thing I think of as Izzy
the dog.

Speaker 4 (14:55):
And also like Sage dogs also, uh you know they
they like farts as well, just like save.

Speaker 3 (15:03):
Save just a dog, SAVEE got that dog?

Speaker 1 (15:06):
Yeah, Sage is a Georgia bulldog. Who's that covid down
the track?

Speaker 3 (15:13):
Nobody?

Speaker 6 (15:13):
Hey, man, stop bringing up football?

Speaker 5 (15:16):
Sorry?

Speaker 1 (15:16):
Sorry, no one September.

Speaker 6 (15:18):
No one watches Survivor and football except for you.

Speaker 1 (15:23):
All right, fine, uh, I'm gonna throw this one to Jonathan.
So Jake drops the bomb on everybody. He tells the
story about his dad getting glaucoma and this being the
only chance his dad has to see him play. Jonathan,
if your dad had glacoma, would you immediately tell everybody
upon meeting them?

Speaker 7 (15:39):
I mean, I know people that have glaucoma, but I'm
not gonna just start name dropping on the podcast. And
it's just like, you know, I don't have glaucoma, so
it doesn't feel important to my plot points.

Speaker 6 (15:54):
Wait.

Speaker 1 (15:54):
Wait, so if something's not happening to you, I don't
be Let's say you're in Jake's shoes. You'll get to
the marooning. Jeff asks, Hey, you excited to be here?
Would you start sobbing until everybody? If he was like,
are you excited to be here? Would I immediately cry
and say my father has glacoma?

Speaker 2 (16:13):
Probably not?

Speaker 7 (16:15):
I First of all, my dad does not have glaucoma.

Speaker 2 (16:19):
Just to set the record straight. So I wouldn't talk
about it.

Speaker 4 (16:23):
You know, I.

Speaker 7 (16:26):
Started seeing the hot guys online that was saying, Hey,
Jonathan's dad glackoma. You know he does not, and so
I probably wouldn't talk about it. I don't think it's
very important to bring it up in Survivor.

Speaker 4 (16:39):
I love Jonathan with the most white guy with a
beard stands.

Speaker 3 (16:42):
Ever, it doesn't happen.

Speaker 6 (16:44):
To me.

Speaker 5 (16:47):
In my million time, you know.

Speaker 6 (16:49):
It's what Jonathan seemed to not be able to get
over the hurdle of like imagination. He was like, my
dad doesn't have glacoma.

Speaker 2 (16:55):
I can't I do what? I wait, what if my
dad it does get glackoma?

Speaker 1 (17:01):
I kept saying, in this scenario, your dad has glackoma.

Speaker 3 (17:06):
Oh no he doesn't. I can't do it. He's supposed
to answer this question.

Speaker 7 (17:13):
Pet, I can't believe you're making me think about my
dad's suffering. It's really too much for me this morning.

Speaker 6 (17:19):
Guys, I think we're looking over very cons fact, which
is I'm pretty sure the producers told him.

Speaker 2 (17:27):
Hey, talking about your dead with glacoma as soon as possible.

Speaker 6 (17:30):
They wanted him to bring that up.

Speaker 1 (17:31):
You think they were on the boat, like, Hey, by
the way, just so you know, you gotta say the
glockhoma thing. Remember the glackhoma thing.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
That's kind of a tough spot to be in.

Speaker 1 (17:39):
I don't think that happened.

Speaker 6 (17:41):
I think they get on the beach and the producer said, Okay,
we're gonna go around. Jeff's going to ask you to
introduce yourselves. We want you this is your moment and
tell your story about.

Speaker 4 (17:49):
Don't let Billy ruin survivor for you.

Speaker 2 (17:54):
I think he's totally right.

Speaker 6 (17:56):
I think the fact that you guys think that I'm
even joking is ridiculous. I think came with Billy, didn't
invent producers.

Speaker 1 (18:05):
The two wrestlers with CTE have these theories about survivors.

Speaker 2 (18:11):
Wait, since when was I a wrestler?

Speaker 4 (18:15):
And I think I think it is. It's at this
point if you've watched the show. I'm not going to
say it produces itself. I think the producers do play.

Speaker 3 (18:27):
A role in it.

Speaker 4 (18:28):
But if I have something in my life that I
can use to potentially gain sympathy early on from the
people that are going to vote. If I win a
million dollars, heck yeah, I'm gonna use it. I want
to tell people that my dad is going blind. It's
it was.

Speaker 3 (18:45):
It's yeah. I don't even think a producer has to
tell you to do that.

Speaker 7 (18:48):
At this point, I don't blame him for talking about it,
because it also totally depends on like levels of glaucoma
and all of this stuff for how traumatic it could
be for.

Speaker 2 (18:59):
Like his fans, So it could.

Speaker 7 (19:02):
It seems like it's a very difficult situation for him personally,
so I don't I don't blame him for bringing it up.

Speaker 2 (19:10):
Would I have?

Speaker 7 (19:11):
I don't know, because I can't really imagine my dad
having So Jonathan.

Speaker 3 (19:16):
Is gonna go call his dad around.

Speaker 1 (19:19):
We'll find out later in the episode. I think Jake
is just someone prone to oversharing.

Speaker 3 (19:24):
Hmmm.

Speaker 6 (19:24):
Yeah, but they already did the pre interviews, so Jeff
and them know about this story.

Speaker 3 (19:31):
Is improv moment?

Speaker 2 (19:34):
Okay, free, I agree with Chase.

Speaker 6 (19:38):
I'm already getting furious. So McAfee over here wanting to
football chance and tell me I'm an idiot for thinking
the producers told him to talk about.

Speaker 1 (19:49):
The McCaffey was the anti virus software guy. I don't know,
why would you bring him up?

Speaker 3 (19:58):
What did I get that great software though.

Speaker 7 (20:00):
Yeah, is it McAfee.

Speaker 1 (20:03):
Yeah, it is McAfee. Up next, Jeff gives a great
Jeff speech. I wrote it down. I feel like I
should skip it is it's kind of long, but I
just want to read the one line though, that is
this is the heart of the paradox of survivor.

Speaker 6 (20:19):
That is a that's a great that's a pretty great line.

Speaker 2 (20:22):
The heart of the paradox of survivor. I had to
think about that for a moment.

Speaker 1 (20:27):
Yeah, because it's the decisions.

Speaker 2 (20:29):
The very center of the paradox. Yeah, what you guys
aren't thinking.

Speaker 6 (20:33):
Men like me and Brand, Me and Brand get it totally.

Speaker 3 (20:36):
I know what paradox means. I'll say this.

Speaker 4 (20:39):
I love now that I know that Jeff comes up
with this marooning speech on the day of after doing
his black shirt ceremony. It means a lot more to
me knowing that he went out and he put he
laid out the black shirt, he did the whole thing,
and uh, I think it was really nice.

Speaker 1 (21:00):
It's a great speech. Then Jeff reveals the tribe names.
Yellow tribe is Hennah, red tribe is Uli, blue tribe
is Keller, and.

Speaker 4 (21:08):
I had the hardest time with Keller. I thought it
was Hella. I I it took me a long time
to figure.

Speaker 1 (21:14):
Out and Kella.

Speaker 4 (21:16):
It was a little confusing, right because because I thought
maybe it was Hella, and then I thought maybe it
was Kenna. I was getting all confused, and they didn't
put the things on. I didn't see it until it
was on the boats later and I was like, wait.

Speaker 3 (21:29):
What is it.

Speaker 7 (21:29):
It takes me a half season to remember the tribe
names in general.

Speaker 4 (21:33):
If I'm gonna be honest, I don't care about the
tribe names.

Speaker 6 (21:36):
The colors.

Speaker 3 (21:37):
Yeah, I love the colors. I love yellow.

Speaker 7 (21:40):
It's a lot of names to remember. Every time that
we start a new season of.

Speaker 1 (21:44):
Survivor, tell me last season's tribe names.

Speaker 7 (21:47):
Dude in the world immediately, not Rare Rod, that's.

Speaker 6 (21:57):
That is, But that's the last season we covered.

Speaker 1 (22:00):
I could tell you the forty eight tribe names.

Speaker 6 (22:03):
Let's hear it.

Speaker 1 (22:03):
Oh, it would be Vula green, Siva orange, and Loggie purple. Wow.

Speaker 2 (22:11):
I have no way to prove you wrong.

Speaker 1 (22:13):
Do it without looking screen, without looking at my notes
for this episode.

Speaker 3 (22:18):
Yeah, I think I think you cheated.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
Cheat the producer.

Speaker 4 (22:25):
The producers told you PD the producers told you what
to say.

Speaker 6 (22:28):
He is the producer.

Speaker 1 (22:30):
Yeah, Jeff, I have an earpiece and Jeff tells me everything. Wow, well, guys,
for the first time in season forty nine, do you
know what time it is?

Speaker 6 (22:40):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (22:41):
Yeah, it's challenge.

Speaker 6 (22:52):
I'm just screaming at a hotel room.

Speaker 3 (22:54):
Yeah, they haven't coming.

Speaker 4 (22:57):
They understand that You're not the first person to scream
hive in a hotel room.

Speaker 6 (23:02):
At four a m. Last night, I woke up to
the sound of someone.

Speaker 2 (23:06):
Screaming and all you heard it was through the walls.

Speaker 1 (23:10):
Was somebody else doing a survivor podcast? Turns out they
have the same gimmick as us.

Speaker 2 (23:20):
Yeah, what is that?

Speaker 6 (23:22):
No, it's undly they were murdered. It was.

Speaker 2 (23:28):
Let's just move past, don't.

Speaker 7 (23:29):
It's not happening to me, so I don't care about it.

Speaker 6 (23:32):
It's hard to imagine anyone I know of getting murdered.

Speaker 1 (23:35):
Hey, in the back of my mind, they died.

Speaker 3 (23:41):
Sure, okay, Actually Jonathan's dad let me call it.

Speaker 2 (23:46):
No, are you okay he.

Speaker 3 (23:48):
Was the murderer?

Speaker 2 (23:49):
Oh okay, Well, I.

Speaker 3 (23:50):
Mean too though he couldn't see it. That's fine, guys.

Speaker 6 (23:54):
So the first challenge of the episode, it's the classic
premiere challenge where you have to fight for your supplies,
and this time the tribes divide up into payers and
each one will take on a different stage of the challenge.
The what's the Blue Tribe called kle Kelly? How do
you pronounce it?

Speaker 1 (24:16):
Blue Keller?

Speaker 6 (24:17):
Blue Kella? It's spelled k E l E, which makes
me think it's Kelly, Kelly, Kelly or Kelly. Anyway, the
Blue Tribe they put I mean, look, guys, they put
Trashy Annie on stage one, which makes sense because Trashy
Annie said she's a runner. Sure didn't think about carrying

(24:39):
the super heavy block right, so they had to run out,
pick up a heavy block, run it back. That was
that stage. Annie puts the Blue Tribe the way in
the back. Then we have a water section. Shannon and
Savannah dominated that stage of the contest. They were actually
able to overtake Stephen and Sophie for the Yellow Tribe.

(25:00):
Then the Red Tribe had a dominant lead going into
the puzzle portion, which was the final stage. Jason and
Christina solved their puzzle first for Sina again that is
the Yellow Tribe, and mc jumps up, hits the bell

(25:21):
and gave her tribe, the.

Speaker 3 (25:23):
Victory Female Alternate MC.

Speaker 6 (25:26):
Yeah, but she didn't feel the need to tell everybody.

Speaker 2 (25:29):
She did not.

Speaker 1 (25:29):
I think game it's because the producers didn't say, hey,
you got to mention this.

Speaker 6 (25:33):
That's why she bring the fact that you think that
that's not true, that's outrageous.

Speaker 7 (25:39):
Yeah, the fact that PD PD you know what goes
in behind the scenes of this podcast alone? And do
you think that network television is not going to have
a guy right when they get on the beach fee
like pause, real quick, game plan, Go for it, y'all,
just go for it.

Speaker 1 (25:56):
No, never happened. No, it has never happened, never will happen.

Speaker 6 (26:00):
They just get strained out there and whatever happens.

Speaker 1 (26:02):
This is a big Brother, This is Survivor.

Speaker 9 (26:04):
Okay, maybe I think big Brother is more likely to
be Yeah, I think I think PT's been watching too
much of the live feeds.

Speaker 2 (26:14):
Is what's happening. He's like, nothing's produced, but yeah.

Speaker 3 (26:19):
Cheat on your girlfriend real quick, cheat on your girlfriend,
cheat on it all right, and go go kiss.

Speaker 6 (26:28):
Yeah, that's the that's the opening challenge. Guys. It was
I liked it. I thought it was fun.

Speaker 4 (26:31):
There was no mud, no muss, marooning challenge, and I
like this. This felt like a I know a little
bit of an older h Older school type game for Survivor.
And I liked that the puzzle in this one, I think,
you know, there's been different variations of this puzzle, but
I like it because it's on its head. It's very simple,

(26:54):
just make a make a cube. But you've got your
making a cube out of a lot of different rectangles
and different shapes of that can complicate things when making
a cube. And so it looks so easy, and I
think when you start not coming together immediately, it's easy
to panic. And I thought that the Yellow Tube did
a great job of just like just looking at it

(27:17):
and just like not rushing. And this is the type
of challenge that you can kind of do that with.

Speaker 6 (27:22):
My favorite part was riz God was yelling to try
to help his team the puzzle and at one point
he goes, yeah, put that there, and they did and
it didn't fit. He goes, never mind, I lied.

Speaker 2 (27:32):
Not bad.

Speaker 7 (27:35):
That's a very risk God thing to say. You know,
It's like, not oh, I was wrong. Make it seem intentional.

Speaker 1 (27:43):
I now's a good time for me to unveil the
new nickname for kristin Chris God. Two times God.

Speaker 7 (27:52):
Let me tell you the name Chris God was a
ten out of ten success in the Right household last night,
because as soon as you said it, I laughed, and
then I watched Kristen laugh way too hard because she
never laughs at my jokes anymore.

Speaker 3 (28:09):
So.

Speaker 1 (28:12):
So the two loser tribes have to pick a player
to compete one on one to see which tribe gets supplies,
and then the loser of that will be left with
nothing for their tribe. So Uli picks Rizzo even though
he said, if it's a puzzle, we're cooked. And Kelly
or sorry, I did it too, Chase Kella picks Alex Moore,
and then we get uh, Hannah going back to the

(28:33):
beach and they're thrilled because they just won the supplies.
And then over on the Blue tribe, Kella, we got
a montage of Sophie trying to befriend everybody, specifically Jake
because she referred to him as the mother of all
meat shields, and she said when they got to the match,
she said, thank you God because she wanted to work
with him so bad.

Speaker 7 (28:50):
I think that Jake might be kind of a different
type of meat shield though, like you know, they say
that about usually the guys that are kind of uh
more of the Jim Burrow personality. I think that he
has more likability than the typical meat shield.

Speaker 1 (29:08):
Yes, when when she told him that she wanted him
to be her number one, he said, I've already got
this bromance going on with Alex, but we could be like,
you know, the three of us.

Speaker 4 (29:18):
Yeah yeah, And she's like, well, how the heck, Like
he's not even he's not even here anymore.

Speaker 3 (29:27):
What do you mean you've got a bromance And he
was like, I just you know, yeah.

Speaker 1 (29:31):
We knew, we knew.

Speaker 6 (29:34):
We were bros at first sight.

Speaker 2 (29:37):
The eyes, That's what he said.

Speaker 1 (29:40):
So so now to Redona's brothers shut out.

Speaker 7 (29:45):
Yeah, I felt I was feeling like, yeah, we're gonna
say more about the Jonahs brothers drop.

Speaker 3 (29:48):
But that's Coolah, we done enough.

Speaker 1 (29:52):
So now to the red Tribe. We get our first
lie of this season. Savannah tells her tribe she's in marketing,
when in reality she is a news a porter.

Speaker 2 (30:04):
Such a smart move.

Speaker 1 (30:05):
I don't think that's a great move.

Speaker 6 (30:08):
I may you don't vote me off if they think
I'm too good at reading off of a teleprompter.

Speaker 4 (30:16):
I mean, what's great is that we know that she's
currently unemployed. We know that from the preseason show she's
not currently a journalist.

Speaker 7 (30:26):
Well then it sounds like she's not a journalist.

Speaker 4 (30:33):
And she does like I'm pretty sure she actually does
do something for her parents company.

Speaker 3 (30:39):
I think it maybe is marketing.

Speaker 4 (30:40):
I think she said it's a lie, but it's not
a lie, which she really wants us. She's you don't
know what's up or down when it comes to her.

Speaker 1 (30:55):
But we get another lie right after, and that was
that Nate told everybody that he was a production assistant
on Spider Man two. He doesn't want them to know
that he's produced movies like Black Panther. He's trying to
keep it low key, but I don't think Spider Man
two is very low.

Speaker 2 (31:09):
Key spider Man.

Speaker 7 (31:11):
This was a big problem for me because Spider Man
two is a massive flex to say that you produced.

Speaker 1 (31:16):
On because he didn't say.

Speaker 6 (31:20):
I'm getting people coffee, but.

Speaker 1 (31:24):
On one of the biggest movies in the world, one
of my favorite superhero films of like all time.

Speaker 4 (31:31):
I like the play here because I think when you
say that you're a producer for Black Panther.

Speaker 3 (31:39):
People are gonna be like, this guy doesn't need the money.

Speaker 4 (31:41):
When you say that you're a PA on Spider Man two,
people be like, that's a cool guy.

Speaker 3 (31:46):
He he's got to be on movies.

Speaker 4 (31:48):
But you don't think about pas being these, you know,
people that are are super rich.

Speaker 3 (31:53):
And so I like the move because it's endearing. People
are like, well, do you have.

Speaker 4 (31:57):
Any cool stories you want to share about your time
work on Spider Man?

Speaker 2 (32:00):
What was it like working with James Franco? You know
it was probably.

Speaker 4 (32:03):
Yeah, Like I think people really like that stuff and
it still gives you. It gives you that the likability
that comes with working on movies without the assumption that
you're filthy rich and don't need to move.

Speaker 7 (32:15):
Now here's the thing, though, if if he had told
them that he was a producer, they I would assume
on Survivor think that he didn't do anything, since the
producers don't do anything on Survivor according to p d right,
like they don't they don't do anything.

Speaker 6 (32:28):
For a tribe.

Speaker 7 (32:29):
Yeah, they think that he didn't even so if he
had just looked at them and said, I'm a producer
for Captain America.

Speaker 2 (32:34):
They would have been like, like, producers.

Speaker 7 (32:36):
Don't do anything. They don't give any coaching or advice.
So that's not very cool.

Speaker 1 (32:41):
Okay, call me crazy. I don't think the marooning is scripted.
I don't I don't think they have the marooning.

Speaker 2 (32:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (32:51):
Uh So we find out that Shannon and Sage love
each other's vibes, although Sage had to burp in the
middle of her confessional about it, prompting the cam man
to ask her if she needed a second, to which
she replied, no, I just needed to burp. But after
this Shannon, Shannon tells the ocean, thank you, Ocean for
welcoming me. May I respect you and love you and

(33:12):
receive love and respect back?

Speaker 3 (33:14):
Got out Ocean. I.

Speaker 4 (33:15):
I you know, she's gonna do a few other things
in this episode that's like giving coach vibes, right, Like
you're gonna do like the you know, the meditating on
the beach and whatnot, and you know, we'll see how
it goes for her. I think the well, we'll see.
I think there's a way to do all the things

(33:37):
that she's doing without it being annoying to the people
around her.

Speaker 3 (33:41):
Yeah, I don't know if she's successfully doing that, but
we'll see. We'll see.

Speaker 4 (33:47):
But even like when Coach does his thing where he
goes out and he does the tide she and stuff
on the beach, like he does it in a way
that's like like he wants people to see him do it. Yeah,
And I think that she's doing it. Not not to
say that she's not. This is not her authentic stelf,
because I buy it, but I do think that she's

(34:08):
like it is a bit performative in a way that
I think she thinks that it's going to be endearing
to people, and I'm not.

Speaker 7 (34:16):
Well, and we're also seeing the performative side of people
right now putting up with it because they're like, oh,
we don't want to get on anyone's bad side yet,
so sure we're gonna sit with you and shout out,
oh yeah that was cool, like we really enjoyed that.

Speaker 2 (34:33):
Week.

Speaker 7 (34:33):
And if she is still kind of like they are
doing this, I think people are gonna start being like,
why are we what are we up to out there?

Speaker 1 (34:43):
If given the opportunity, would you sign up for a
Shannon meditation on the beaches of Fiji.

Speaker 7 (34:50):
I'd probably I'd probably do the sage number where I
just sat there and looked like confused, but just like
amicably was like, oh, okay, like thanks for inviting me.

Speaker 1 (35:00):
I don't think you'd be invited. I think you'd have
to pay to go. I don't think Oh no, I
don't think it's free. She runs high vibe women's events.
I mean it's probably takes some extra money.

Speaker 3 (35:09):
What she does. That's what she does for a living.

Speaker 2 (35:11):
Jonathan, Wow, how many left shoes?

Speaker 6 (35:13):
So you just assumed, because she's a woman, that she
does it for free.

Speaker 7 (35:17):
I just assumed that she was well off enough that
she was giving away things. You know, I assume, Yeah,
I assume the best of it.

Speaker 1 (35:24):
She's the survivor bars. I'm pretty sure.

Speaker 6 (35:29):
Yeah, she got daddy's money. And daddy's got a three
floor bar in Boston that we're.

Speaker 3 (35:33):
Gonna go to.

Speaker 2 (35:34):
You're looking at me and saying, hey, did you what
you thought? She didn't earn that Bundy?

Speaker 3 (35:39):
And then up, she's daddy's money. He owns the bar.

Speaker 6 (35:46):
Yeah, I'm pretty sure he manages it or something. But regardless, Yeah,
my loyalty lies to whatever. Is the funniest thing to say, Okay,
making fun of Jonathan. Yeah, finish that up, give Chase
two minutes.

Speaker 1 (35:59):
And no contradic himself. That's what I was gonna say.
So now it's time for the one on one supply
battle between Rizzo and Alex.

Speaker 2 (36:07):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (36:08):
It ends up being a roller coaster for Rizzo. So
each contestant has to race onto the peninsula to find
coconuts marked with their emblem and they bring them back
one at a time, and once they have ten of them,
they have to open them up and then solve a
puzzle and all the puzzle pieces you know, or inside
the coconuts, and it reveals the location of the ship wheel.

(36:28):
They retrieve the wheel, crank the flagpole in the first
person to raise it to the top, winds now. Alex
gets out the gate really hot. It looks like he's
smoking Rizzo. He's got all of his coconuts, while Rizzo
is blown up just trying to like get the first couple.
He looks completely gassed immediately, but Rizzo gets his pieces,

(36:49):
you know, he looks over he sees Nate's flying through it.
So what does Rizzo decide to do? Cheat? And what
did you guys think about that?

Speaker 3 (36:58):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (36:58):
Yeah, it sold me on.

Speaker 4 (37:00):
Yeah, I will say my I was. I watched this
episode with my kids. They stayed up and watched and
they did not think that.

Speaker 3 (37:08):
That was okay.

Speaker 4 (37:09):
Oh they called They called out his cheating. They were like,
you can't do that, that's cheating. And I was like, well,
they're doing it, so that means that it's okay here
in this game, but you are right in life, you know,
make sure that you do cheat.

Speaker 3 (37:23):
But so, you know what, good on them for calling
him out because it does.

Speaker 4 (37:28):
Yeah, but at the end, at the end of the day, Uh,
it's it's on Is it Adam Alex or Alex. It's
on Alex to figure out whether it is to destroy
the puzzle or put something over or something like, yeah,
we've seen the game before. Like, if you don't want
people to look at your puzzle, you got to figure

(37:50):
out a way to make sure that they can't look
at your puzzle.

Speaker 7 (37:53):
I'd say he wasn't even cheating personally, Oh he was.
He was just playing the game.

Speaker 6 (37:58):
I think it was just so funny that he took
all of his pieces to the other puzzle.

Speaker 4 (38:04):
I can't comprehend how he cheated. It was such an
odd way to do it. It's like, I'm gonna do
here and then bring that there and then do this.

Speaker 6 (38:13):
It was really interesting.

Speaker 1 (38:14):
But then Alex comes back and then he sees Rizzo
doing it. He tries to block the whole thing with
his torso, but the problem with that is he has
to leave again, so Rizzo just goes right back to
cheating once he's gone again. Or not cheating depends. If
you ask Brand's kids, they would say it was very
much cheating.

Speaker 2 (38:31):
Yes, I just love that.

Speaker 7 (38:32):
When he blocked the entire puzzle, Rizzo was like, oh,
you're blocking it, ha ha.

Speaker 2 (38:37):
Like he's narrating it.

Speaker 7 (38:41):
As he's going, just talking the whole time, and as
soon as he blocks it, he's like, oh he blocked it,
ha ha. And it runs back to his side and
it runs right back after you.

Speaker 4 (38:51):
And I don't want to get into the weeds here,
but that is the role of a producer. Before the game,
you tell the players, hey, while you're playing, talk it out.

Speaker 3 (39:00):
That's good for tea.

Speaker 1 (39:01):
That's the role of the PCT cheat.

Speaker 3 (39:04):
And then uh, yeah, you.

Speaker 4 (39:08):
Come over here, laid down on the table for a
little bit so they can't cheat.

Speaker 3 (39:12):
It'll be funny.

Speaker 2 (39:12):
Could you also dress like a target employee? Rizzo.

Speaker 1 (39:15):
That's what they said, that'd be great.

Speaker 4 (39:18):
Why was a little bit confused about? Uh so when
they go to to dig. I don't know if you
guys saw this, but both of where they dug was
inside to like wood beams and.

Speaker 3 (39:35):
Why not just go right there? Go there?

Speaker 2 (39:37):
Well they were beams right, that was there. They had
to run across several, uh several wood.

Speaker 3 (39:44):
Beams, so you know which wood beams to dig him,
but yeah.

Speaker 2 (39:46):
You didn't know which one.

Speaker 7 (39:47):
But uh, I'm just a little surprised that it seemed
like riz God's wheel was like shallow.

Speaker 2 (39:55):
I'm just gonna say it. It seemed like it was
less deep into the ground.

Speaker 6 (40:00):
It cared about people's looks way more than his personality.

Speaker 10 (40:04):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't know what went wrong for Alex.

Speaker 4 (40:15):
I don't know if he didn't dig far enough. I
don't know if he went to the wrong area. I
don't know what happened.

Speaker 1 (40:21):
I thought at this point it was embarrassing for both
of them because Rizzos tried to cheat. He's taken forever
and if you're gonna cheat, like do it quick.

Speaker 2 (40:33):
Like a gazelle to get there.

Speaker 3 (40:34):
He's just like.

Speaker 1 (40:36):
He's like, hey, a.

Speaker 2 (40:37):
Little bit more. It wasn't good.

Speaker 4 (40:40):
Did literally everything he could to lose this challenge.

Speaker 6 (40:44):
Yeah. Well, here's what I'll say, because I thought about this,
because he when he was digging, not risk God.

Speaker 1 (40:50):
Is a he dug Alex.

Speaker 6 (40:55):
Alex, And my only thought is he was maybe he
wasn't at the right spot. That's what I was gonna
He had the puzzle down, but maybe in his panic
he looked and read the map wrong or something. I
just can't imagine that that was not in there anywhere.

Speaker 1 (41:11):
And that's why it was embarrassing for him too, because
he had multiple opportunities to run back and forth and
he had like a maybe a fifteen minute lead on
Rizzo and he blew it.

Speaker 7 (41:21):
Yeah, well, and they were They ended up being side
by side right in their sections digging. I would I
would find it difficult to believe that the producers or
the people that were building the challenge would put the
wheel in the.

Speaker 2 (41:37):
Same spot for both.

Speaker 7 (41:39):
You could watch the other person be like, Oh, they're
digging right there, I'm gonna go. So it really does
make me think that Alex read the map wrong and
was digging in the wrong place because he dug deep
and he dug him the whole area and it was nothing.

Speaker 1 (41:52):
You gotta dig deep.

Speaker 2 (41:55):
He's like, I'm trying that.

Speaker 1 (41:57):
Wish Jeff was there to yell at him. That's what
this is missing.

Speaker 6 (42:00):
Yeah, well, riz God was doing his best.

Speaker 1 (42:03):
To you know what. I bet riz God was glad
that Jeff wasn't there so he didn't see his mischievous
uh mis doing.

Speaker 5 (42:11):
Do you think do you think.

Speaker 6 (42:12):
Riz God was like, oh God, I hope John Cena
doesn't watch.

Speaker 1 (42:16):
He's like, he turned heel. I can, I can turn heel.

Speaker 3 (42:19):
But you know what, he never gave up, and John
would be proud.

Speaker 6 (42:22):
That was the hustle. Part of hustle, loyalty and respect.

Speaker 7 (42:26):
I feel like Ris God has like a little mischievous
like almost rumpel stilt skin build, and the way that
he like runs and approaches things.

Speaker 2 (42:35):
It's like, you know, I don't know, it's like a very.

Speaker 6 (42:39):
He's gonna steal Jake's newborn baby. Yeah, I'm just.

Speaker 2 (42:46):
Calling it now.

Speaker 7 (42:47):
I feel it from this guy that as the season goes,
if he stays with us, that he's gonna be kind
of the sneaky, mischievous time.

Speaker 3 (42:55):
That's what the R and R I Z G o
D stands for.

Speaker 1 (43:00):
Did you feel like he had that energy? After he won?
He wins the challenge and he's in the confessional and
he's crying talking about how he's doing it for his
girlfriend and his family and everybody in Albania.

Speaker 3 (43:12):
Wishes he could hurt himself, but that'd be weird.

Speaker 6 (43:14):
Yeah, what is the population of Albania?

Speaker 1 (43:19):
I don't know. Why would any of us know?

Speaker 6 (43:21):
I don't know. I thought you guys, maybe the producer.

Speaker 1 (43:24):
The producer, some of these five people there, and it's
all Rizzo's family.

Speaker 6 (43:29):
I'm looking it up. What about square? Anyway, two point
seven million people in.

Speaker 1 (43:35):
Ho was off.

Speaker 2 (43:36):
Whoa. It looks like the child is going up too.

Speaker 1 (43:38):
So he won that challenge for two point seven million people. Yeah, dude,
shout out to Riz God. This was a coming out
party for the Riz God. It was he is Risen.

Speaker 6 (43:50):
If you will, oh, I like it, I like you.

Speaker 3 (43:56):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (43:56):
So now to the Uli tribe, we find out that
Sage loves poop. She told her tribe if they have
an aquedump that she wants them to describe it in
great details. She would love nothing more than that. Sage
might be the weirdest person we've ever seen on Survivor.

Speaker 7 (44:11):
I feel like I've met people like this and every
time you're.

Speaker 2 (44:15):
Like, you're trying too hard? Why are you like this?

Speaker 7 (44:18):
Like you don't actually enjoy this, you just think it
makes you unique.

Speaker 2 (44:22):
That's how I feel about it.

Speaker 4 (44:24):
I'll be you've heard. I can't what is she like
when she's not being weird? Like everything we so you
we've heard about the Winner edit, right, this is the
freak edit.

Speaker 2 (44:35):
Like the Philip edit.

Speaker 4 (44:37):
Everything, Everything that they show of her is truly bizarre,
and I have to imagine occasionally she's not right, Like,
are we ever going to get to see her not
do it weird?

Speaker 2 (44:55):
Interesting?

Speaker 3 (44:56):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (44:56):
Otherwise I say, when she's not weird? What if she's
never not weird?

Speaker 4 (45:00):
I know? Well, that's why I'm intrigued to find out
if at like everything she says is about poop and
pee and blackheads, Like, yeah, I'm here for it, let's
find out what happens.

Speaker 2 (45:10):
It's found. It sounded a little domeresque. You know, it's
just a little too.

Speaker 7 (45:14):
It's it's borderline, not just quirky. It's now creepy and weird.

Speaker 3 (45:19):
You know, show me you're dump.

Speaker 2 (45:23):
Yeahad's in a jar.

Speaker 1 (45:27):
She didn't sound like Jojo Siwah when she said it
be fair.

Speaker 3 (45:31):
Sorry, you're right, dream guess away. I guess an aquedump.

Speaker 1 (45:37):
Ain't laughed at that. So Rizzo delivers the goods. Uh
ULI's thrilled. Rizzo tells him he did it for them
and his parents, and Nate comes back and wonders how
to spin it, and he just tells them exactly what happened.
There wasn't much spin. So Jake says it a confessional.
He's got a good feeling about Alex. Maybe it's a
sign from God. It's a bromance from God. Uh So,

(45:58):
Sophie and Jake going away walk with Nate and Jake
tells them about the fact that his baby is going
to be born while he's there, so he's revealed both
of the insane things that I brought up in the
pregame show on episode one.

Speaker 4 (46:13):
I do want to just add a little bit more
about the story. The story is they tried for a
long time to get pregnant.

Speaker 1 (46:25):
Would you use the word miracle.

Speaker 3 (46:28):
All babies are a miracle, Pete, but.

Speaker 1 (46:30):
This one's a miracle miracle specific it's a lyrical miracle.

Speaker 4 (46:33):
Baby it's a special kind of miracle. Yes, that you know,
through the marvel that is science and doctors and whatnot,
they were able to she was able to get pregnant.
And he's asks her, Hey, basically like gave her. What
he says is, I gave her the chance to tell

(46:55):
me not to go, and she told me to go
and to make the money. And so oh, that's a
bold move, I would say, of the things that I would,
I mean, on one hand, right, they now know that
your dad is going blind and that you are about

(47:16):
to welcome a nude baby into this world.

Speaker 2 (47:20):
So there is you gain an advantage.

Speaker 4 (47:23):
You gain a little bit of an advantage there, I
do think, And I'm not saying I'm one of these people,
but there is a chance that people hear that you
chose the game of Survivor over the birth of your child,
and that may cause people to be like, oh, that's
a lot. He might that. There's a way to read this,

(47:45):
which is, oh, he's a threat. He loves Survivor so
much that he would choose to be and play Survivor
over being present for the birth of his miracle baby.

Speaker 3 (47:55):
There's a read that some.

Speaker 4 (47:56):
People could hear that and go, we got to get
him out now, because this clearly means a lot to happen.

Speaker 7 (48:03):
I think that people would hear it and give the
feedback that they did on the show, which is like, oh, congratulations,
that's awesome, but then in the back of their mind
they're thinking, why would you not stay home?

Speaker 6 (48:18):
Here's what I'll say, because Twitter immediately started lighting this
dude up last night.

Speaker 1 (48:22):
Oh yeah, that's what Twitter is.

Speaker 6 (48:23):
So I was like, you know what, it's not a
full sound like Twitter. It's not fun if I also
take shots out of it. So I did some research
and I think I figured out why he might have
chosen to go. I don't know the exact salary of
a Canadian Correctionals officer, but I don't think it's much so.

(48:45):
And I'm being dead serious here. If you go on Survivor,
you have the ten thousand dollars guarantee for the live
reunion and the NBA thing, and if you make jury,
you're making another maybe ten grand. And if you somehow
managed to get in the final three, third place is
eighty five grand, runner up is one hundred thousand dollars,

(49:07):
and then the winner gets a million dollars it's a
big boost of money regardless of how you place. I mean,
even if you get out totals, Yeah, you'll still make
twelve thousand dollars. So maybe they just needed that kind
of extra money.

Speaker 4 (49:20):
You know, do you still get the ten K guarantee, Chase,
because there's not a live reunion anymore.

Speaker 6 (49:26):
They do it so that you stick to your NBA,
So break your NDA, you don't get that ten K bonus.

Speaker 2 (49:31):
That completely changed how I feel.

Speaker 1 (49:34):
Towards Yeah, I've been greeting to you today. But I
think that was a great nuanced point because like when
somebody like Jonathan hears that information for the first time,
he makes Maybe Jonathan made a bunch of jokes about
how he was a dead beat.

Speaker 2 (49:47):
Day, Hey, why are we gonna bring up the past?

Speaker 7 (49:52):
This is what I was, like, I father of the
year in my opinion, I've been saying that.

Speaker 4 (49:57):
I know what I would do in this situation and
the not and it's not what he did. But I
you know, everybody is different. I don't know what to
Chase's point, I don't know his situation. Maybe his wife
is what it would be like. You know what you
being in the room would stress me out. Honestly, this

(50:17):
would be really helpful that you know, I.

Speaker 6 (50:20):
Don't know with the doctor delivering the baby.

Speaker 4 (50:23):
Yes, so it like, do I believe that his wife
meant it when she said go brother.

Speaker 2 (50:35):
I don't.

Speaker 3 (50:35):
I don't know. I don't know. But he's made the choice.

Speaker 4 (50:40):
Here it is, and I'm interested to see if that
comes into play at all. Just from a game strategy perspective,
you have this guy who has a new baby, whose
dad is going blind, and he's here playing the game.
He that alone could be seen as a threat brand.
He's the ripest guy.

Speaker 3 (50:59):
In the game.

Speaker 4 (51:00):
But he didn't need to put any more bull's eyes
on his back. But now he has had three, he
has the he has the fact that he's ripped out
of his mind, his dad is going by, he's got
that sob story in his new baby at home.

Speaker 3 (51:13):
Get this guy out of.

Speaker 7 (51:14):
Here, Yeah, Chase, can you help me with something real quick?
This is and I need your acting. I'm gonna play
his wife and you're gonna play him, and you're gonna
ask me if you can go on Survivor while I
am expecting our miracle baby.

Speaker 6 (51:31):
Okay, all right, I'm gonna really get into it.

Speaker 2 (51:33):
Okay, yeah, go for it.

Speaker 4 (51:35):
Well you can watch this on Roku by the way,
after it's called Miracle Baby with Jonathan and Chase.

Speaker 2 (51:41):
It's actually in the horror section.

Speaker 6 (51:46):
Okay, all right, and actually okay, wow wow er okay, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (51:58):
What was that? What was we were on the phone.
Who was that?

Speaker 6 (52:04):
I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, but that was that
was Survivor?

Speaker 2 (52:08):
Eh oh Survivor.

Speaker 6 (52:11):
No way they're putting me on the show?

Speaker 2 (52:15):
Whoa Oh? Okay do you think that's Are you thinking
you're gonna do it?

Speaker 6 (52:23):
I mean, do you think I should?

Speaker 2 (52:27):
Well, you know what, I guess I'll just I'll leave
that up to you.

Speaker 6 (52:32):
Okay, Hey my wife said it was okay, I'll be
there still.

Speaker 2 (52:39):
Okay, Well see you later. You know. That's how I
feel like that?

Speaker 3 (52:42):
Was that crazy? We got the audio that was not.

Speaker 1 (52:46):
Was that people from Canada? Or was that how to
make a murder on Netflix? Season?

Speaker 2 (52:53):
It was? It was actually, uh, far go too.

Speaker 6 (52:57):
I've decided last year we we loved the Cana so much.
I decided this year I'm gonna go full heel on Canada.

Speaker 7 (53:05):
I just I agree brand I do not think that
his wife was probably yeah, like go do it. I
think that he got the answer of, well, it's your decision, Yeah,
that's that feel whatever.

Speaker 1 (53:19):
I think his wife is supportive and.

Speaker 2 (53:21):
She's on board.

Speaker 1 (53:22):
She was supportive when he was a male stripper or whatever,
and she's supportive now that he's still kind of a
male stripper.

Speaker 2 (53:29):
He st was on TV.

Speaker 6 (53:31):
I think it was, hey, go make go make us
thirty thousand dollars real quick.

Speaker 2 (53:35):
That's a very fair assessment, Chase. I would actually lean
that way.

Speaker 1 (53:39):
Now he's the Canadian Hulk. He's my number one draft
pick in two.

Speaker 6 (53:43):
Weeks first, oh, drafting first for real?

Speaker 1 (53:47):
Yep, I'm not lying, all right, that's so that's the most.

Speaker 3 (53:52):
Time give me those.

Speaker 6 (53:55):
That's a me move, dude.

Speaker 1 (53:57):
I'm switching it up. I've lost so many times in
a row. I realized it's the women's fault. I keep
picking them, and so it's their fault that I keep losing.

Speaker 7 (54:05):
Is this what happens when Kristen's not on the podcast
is Peaty completely swaps things.

Speaker 6 (54:12):
Well, he is a performance he's a performative one.

Speaker 1 (54:16):
Whatever you want to say. So we're still on the
Blue tribe. We're gonna keep talking about Matt Nicole loses
her shoe. Chase, how did this happen?

Speaker 6 (54:26):
Well, that would be the Canadian Hulk. He stole it.
I love this so shocking because he in the pre
interview he was all about you know, he was the
integrity guy, the honor and integrity guy. He wanted to
play like Joe, and then he immediately steals this woman shoe.

Speaker 7 (54:44):
It's real klepto behavior, you know, like, oh, I just
stole a little bit of something from each store I
go in.

Speaker 6 (54:49):
And what makes it worse is like she's the one
that goes home, so it's like a bullier. We watched
this woman. We watched this woman throw up because she
was so anxious that she was going to be the
one to go home. We watched her look her missing shoe,
and then we watched her go home.

Speaker 3 (55:10):
That's interesting, Chase, I didn't put that together that.

Speaker 2 (55:12):
You know.

Speaker 4 (55:12):
Last year there was the song curse for making the merge.

Speaker 3 (55:17):
Maybe there's the shoe curse.

Speaker 4 (55:18):
If if Jake steals your shoe, you're going home, Well
that's something to get your shoe, you get the boot,
is what you're saying. Oh, I know, Jonathan, that's not
what I'm saying at all, it's what you said.

Speaker 3 (55:31):
Okay, I say it.

Speaker 1 (55:34):
Next up we have meditation class with Shannon. Savannah was like,
this is gonna get old real quick. But we know
that Jonathan would be interested in one of those high
vibes women classes at least, So when we go to Boston,
we might hit up Shannon and do some pilates.

Speaker 2 (55:50):
Cool well in the in the Survivor bar.

Speaker 6 (55:53):
Yeah, in the bar, on the bar that's floor three.

Speaker 1 (55:56):
We're gonna do the yogatis. We're gonna get up on
a table or the bar and do yoga on top
of that. During the airing of the episode, WHOA. So
now let's go to the water well and Shannon says,
it's nice to be here at the water well today,
And it was. It looked like a beautiful day. It's

(56:18):
the first day of Survivors. It's the nicest day to
be It's nice.

Speaker 4 (56:22):
It is not in her defense, I imagine it was
nice to be at the water well today.

Speaker 1 (56:29):
So but we can't blame her. Yeah, we can't blame her.
While they were at the water well that it was
very nice to be at, Juwan tells them that he
cares about them. He clarifies he cares about everybody, obviously,
but it seems like Shannon might have her power alliance
after all. And Juwan wants to bring in one more person,
but he wants to choose the right person, so he's

(56:50):
trying to feel everybody out, and he says he's trying
to decide between Nate Rizzo and Sage, and the casting
audition is wide open at one point.

Speaker 6 (56:58):
I don't know if it was this section or earlier
in the episode, but Sophie Sigretti, who we did not
get a lot of this sigarette she.

Speaker 3 (57:06):
Goes Season fifty. Sophie, right, is she Sophie's going to fifty?

Speaker 2 (57:11):
No?

Speaker 6 (57:11):
That is uh, Savannah, Savannah.

Speaker 3 (57:13):
It was one of the essays Sage is what I
It's not, Sage. I think we'll be in good shape.

Speaker 6 (57:20):
No, Sophie. So Gretti goes, I work at YouTube, and
out loud, I went, I work at YouTube.

Speaker 1 (57:29):
By yourself.

Speaker 2 (57:31):
I love working at YouTube.

Speaker 7 (57:33):
Sounds like you pack a briefcase and walk into the
offices of YouTube.

Speaker 3 (57:38):
Chase is doing the Leonardo DiCaprio from.

Speaker 6 (57:43):
Your co workers. Me and Siretti are co workers.

Speaker 2 (57:47):
I wonder if you are any of the same slack channels,
you know.

Speaker 1 (57:50):
Oh yeah, so we get to hear from Stephen. Stephen
and Matt made a strong connection. But it turns out
Stephen and everybody he made a strong connection. We had
small girl Jason Truel. He says he really likes Steven,
he's so charming. But hopefully he isn't telling everyone he
loves them. It turns out he was. He was telling.

Speaker 3 (58:11):
Everybody he was. It was a great at it.

Speaker 4 (58:13):
Hopefully it's not telling everybody that comes to him being like,
I really like you.

Speaker 3 (58:17):
She's very funny.

Speaker 4 (58:18):
We've not really talked a lot about Matt the airport
bag man. I love him so much, Like I knew
from the clip that we played in a preseason show
that he might be one of those guys that I
kind of gravitate towards. But after this, we don't get
a ton of them this episode. But what we get
is he's a star.

Speaker 3 (58:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (58:37):
Earlier in the episode, I skipped over it, but they
were all trying to make fire and they were struggling
for hours until it got dark, and Steven could tell
that Matt was hanging in the background because he didn't
want to like put himself out there as the boy
scout and he's like, you know what, Matt, do you
want to do it? And he makes the fire. He

(58:58):
made it look easy.

Speaker 4 (59:00):
Driver because Christina was giving it a shot. And Christina says,
I've never done this before, which is crazy to me
to never at least try to make a fire before
you go out there. And it's like the opposite of
what happened with Juwan later in the episode, where Juwan
was making fires every day before getting out there and
then just can't.

Speaker 2 (59:19):
Do it, didn't do it.

Speaker 4 (59:20):
So yep, I guess honestly, it doesn't matter if you try,
you can't do it if you if you don't try,
you can't do it as a unless unless you Matt
can do it.

Speaker 1 (59:28):
Yeah. One other thing about Steven is that he got
really paranoid after trying to make friends with everybody. He
tells the confessional that he's suspicious of everyone and it
might just be his anxiety because he hit his growth
spurt late, and he said there's still a part of
him that feels like he's in high school and he's
still just a small girl.

Speaker 7 (59:48):
Oh my goodness, Speedy, if we were in person like
the other week, he would have been a full scale attack.

Speaker 1 (59:56):
You know, you choked me last time. I did it
when we were ready, I know. And was that not
a full scale? That wasn't full scale?

Speaker 2 (01:00:03):
I didn't I didn't have full force.

Speaker 1 (01:00:07):
Back to the back, to blue back to blue uh
back the blue back the Blue. Jake says, as a dude,
you know when another dude looks you in the eyes
and you just you know, it's a romance. Alex reminds
me of a half black meat that lives in the States.

(01:00:28):
We just get along so good in a non sexual way.
And then he makes a scissoring gesture. He literally makes
a scissoring gesture with his hands, and he says, I
don't know why I'm doing this. We're not doing that.
We're good, but we're just two dudes chilling.

Speaker 6 (01:00:44):
Guys. We got a redo of the famous Rudy line,
no I love him, but not in a homosexual.

Speaker 1 (01:00:52):
Forty eight seasons later, we got another one.

Speaker 3 (01:00:55):
Finally got it. We finally got it.

Speaker 4 (01:00:57):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (01:00:58):
But Jake might be he uh double the strength of Rudy,
but he's half the man of Rudy.

Speaker 4 (01:01:04):
You can't live up to Rudy, Jake, no matter how hard,
you try, you won't do it. And by the way, Chase,
I don't know if you heard this, Rudy die what?

Speaker 6 (01:01:13):
Oh yeah, no, I know. They did a memorial right
before the episode started.

Speaker 1 (01:01:17):
They did it again this year.

Speaker 3 (01:01:18):
They do it every year. Rudy dies every year for Chase.
I'll just say one thing.

Speaker 1 (01:01:24):
Jake has never drank Vietnam contamination water.

Speaker 4 (01:01:28):
That's right, that's exactly right. Can't touch Rudy. He's drag
water everywhere.

Speaker 1 (01:01:35):
So Sophie, she's getting kind of jealous of the bromance,
she's getting stressed about it, and now she's feeling connected
to Jeremiah, and Jeremiah wants to use the Alpha Bros
As his shield. And then Jeremiah asks Jake if anyone
would suspect him of working with a gay guy, and
Jake immediately's like, no, no, nobody would respect that. I'm
good with it. And so now it looks like Jeremiah

(01:01:57):
is with Alex and Jake and Sophie and they're gonna
run the game. I'm gonna say that about every alliance
so that I end up being right about one of them.

Speaker 4 (01:02:05):
Yeah, I can't wait until Jake's old tweets oh, come
to the surface.

Speaker 1 (01:02:11):
Oh no, can't be worse than whatever Sue said.

Speaker 3 (01:02:15):
That's true.

Speaker 1 (01:02:17):
She just said mother Quake, so didn't say anything that.

Speaker 3 (01:02:21):
I'm Jeremiah is an interesting player.

Speaker 4 (01:02:24):
I feel like Jeremiah's obviously like feeling it out, trying
to figure out where Jeremiah is gonna fit in. And
I think that it could that like a Jeremiah Jake
alliance could be really interesting.

Speaker 3 (01:02:39):
It could be one that goes far.

Speaker 4 (01:02:42):
Maybe that's the secret alliance that that runs to show
this season.

Speaker 1 (01:02:47):
The Double j Alliance, the Jeff Jared jail So on
the Red Tribe, Nate wants to work with Savannah and Shannon.
Savannah says she loved the idea and she doesn't want
to jinx it, but she thinks her and Shannon will
make the decision to see who the fourth Allion its
member is. So Juwan is starting to lose it because
he can't make the fire, and it seems like the
water Well alliance that we had earlier is starting to

(01:03:08):
crumble because Savannah's looking at Juwan being so frustrated and
she's like, this is not a good sign.

Speaker 4 (01:03:14):
Savannah as a as a journalist is gonna pipe been
and be like this just in Juwan having a breakdown,
not being able to make fire. She's eyeballing him, like
watching the whole thing take place.

Speaker 3 (01:03:27):
Reading in them.

Speaker 4 (01:03:28):
Maybe it is the easiest million dollars Savanna's ever made.

Speaker 1 (01:03:31):
Maybe I think she's gonna win the game?

Speaker 6 (01:03:33):
Is that crazy? I love the fact that she hated
everyone doing yoga.

Speaker 1 (01:03:37):
I thought, yeah, she's got winter energy. She's got energy.

Speaker 6 (01:03:41):
Yeah she does energy, she does?

Speaker 1 (01:03:43):
All right?

Speaker 6 (01:03:43):
Does that lead us to the next challenge?

Speaker 1 (01:03:45):
That leads us to the mud baptism with Chase.

Speaker 6 (01:03:48):
Whoa, it's everybody's second favorite part of the episode. I
had to whisper because I'm in a hotel room.

Speaker 1 (01:03:58):
Oh somebod people can wake you up at four am.
But you're gonna be considerate. Come on, have a backbone, Chase.

Speaker 6 (01:04:03):
You're right, You're right.

Speaker 1 (01:04:04):
Hell all right.

Speaker 6 (01:04:07):
I'm gonna run through this pretty quick because I gotta go.
But guys, a challenge includes a rope tunnel, we have
the classic baptism by mud, and then you have to
carry three giant snakes, which is something that Survivor has
been doing these past few seasons. They really like the
big lizards.

Speaker 1 (01:04:27):
The big snakes, and Sage probably loved it because it
looks like a giant poop.

Speaker 6 (01:04:32):
Oh, Jesus, we gotta get her out of here. I agree, uh,
and then I know.

Speaker 4 (01:04:43):
That Jeff was like the spectacular Survivors just it's just
a big stag brother the sss.

Speaker 2 (01:04:55):
Oh.

Speaker 6 (01:04:56):
At the very end, there is a Uh it's one
those classic ball trap games that Survivor loves to do
when you have to try to get the ball around
the puzzle.

Speaker 1 (01:05:05):
Yeah, google a ball trap games, everybody.

Speaker 3 (01:05:12):
Oh, what's that VPN coachase?

Speaker 6 (01:05:15):
You can go to surf shark dot com use coach
chase bridges that check out. Oh my god. Yeah. So,
uh Kayla Kelly, what how do we do this?

Speaker 1 (01:05:26):
It's uh Keller, right.

Speaker 4 (01:05:29):
Keller, Keller, remember Hella, and then say Keller, Helen, Keller, Hella, Hella, Keller.

Speaker 2 (01:05:41):
I resist, I'm resisting, Jake Dad jokes. I'm resisting Jake
Dad jokes.

Speaker 1 (01:05:46):
I'm just gonna put my bike down some Chase confinces.

Speaker 6 (01:05:51):
Keller. Keller loses, Keller can't get it done. Kella is
the first tribe to go to tribal council with Jeff.
But who cares about the challenge whatever, happened to that
challenge doesn't matter because the only thing that I would
to talk about is that Jeremiah, at one point after
the mud, looks at Nicole and says, Hey, how did
you get the mud out of your eyes, to which

(01:06:11):
she responds by spitting water into his face.

Speaker 3 (01:06:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:06:16):
Yeah, I couldn't believe it.

Speaker 6 (01:06:18):
That is I think that is my favorite Survivor moment
of all time.

Speaker 2 (01:06:25):
I mean, it was great, but I just out of
all of it.

Speaker 9 (01:06:28):
Yeah, one other time someone did something, I mean Rachel Hips.

Speaker 1 (01:06:33):
Yeah, Rachel winning the immunity necklaces and then getting the
idols and stuff was pretty cool. But when we saw
the first boot spit in another player's eye, I think
that really in forty nine seasons, that's how you do
it on Survivor, Dude.

Speaker 6 (01:06:46):
It was hilarious. I was cackling, dude.

Speaker 3 (01:06:50):
Because she didn't even pop.

Speaker 4 (01:06:52):
No.

Speaker 6 (01:06:57):
But what's even funny. I think someone pointed this out
in the patro. What's even funnier is he asks, hey,
how did you get the water out of How did
you get them out of your eyes? To what she
responds by spinning water. Do you think.

Speaker 7 (01:07:08):
She she fountain straight up in the like straight up
in the air.

Speaker 2 (01:07:11):
Let the water fall back down in her own eyes?
Or do you think someone else spin in her eyes?

Speaker 9 (01:07:17):
It implies that I might get some spin in your eyes.

Speaker 3 (01:07:22):
They're just all spitting each other's faces.

Speaker 1 (01:07:24):
Yeah, I feel like that's the kind of thing you
need to ask consent. Hello, is it okay for me
to spit in your eye right now? Before you just
full send it?

Speaker 4 (01:07:34):
I don't know much, but I do know Sage would
have freaking loved it.

Speaker 2 (01:07:41):
Sage was like, do it again, do it again.

Speaker 6 (01:07:44):
I just can't believe spat in this guy's face.

Speaker 7 (01:07:49):
It And there's no way that it was just the
edit because he just straight up asked, and she's.

Speaker 1 (01:07:54):
Like, yeah, I was thinking, if you've got water, why
can't you pour it on him?

Speaker 4 (01:08:01):
Yeah, Nicole, you can be as surprise as you want
that you got the first boot.

Speaker 3 (01:08:07):
Yes, spat in that man's eyes.

Speaker 7 (01:08:10):
You know what would have been funny is if when
her torch got stuff, Jeff would have been like the
cold the tribe is spoken, I just found the water
out onto the door, or spitting.

Speaker 1 (01:08:20):
Jeff's face, That's what What if she was holding some
just in case.

Speaker 4 (01:08:25):
Oh triple h out there Nicole going full alpaca out
of the challenge.

Speaker 2 (01:08:31):
Dude, it's crazy.

Speaker 4 (01:08:34):
What if it becomes a thing for color though, Like
the whole season they're just spitting each other's faces.

Speaker 2 (01:08:39):
Yeah, that would be a little bit weird, you know.

Speaker 1 (01:08:41):
It seems like something trashy, and he would do trashy,
very trashy. Any crying Amy?

Speaker 3 (01:08:54):
That was from gran.

Speaker 2 (01:08:56):
Amy spitting any.

Speaker 6 (01:09:01):
Okay, who won? I already said it didn't really matter
who won. I said, who lost? Kelly?

Speaker 7 (01:09:11):
Kelly, which I have to leave in twelve minutes for
a doctor's appointment.

Speaker 6 (01:09:14):
So yeah, I gotta go.

Speaker 1 (01:09:16):
We're at the end anyway. Yeah, it's the Blue Tribe
going to tribal council. The Blues are going. It's very
clearly between Nicole and Annie as far as you know
who's on the block. To put it in BB terms,
But because Jake, Alex and Sophie and Jeremiah are running
the show, they decide Nicole and Alex's job is to

(01:09:37):
make her feel safe and tell her the plan is Annie.
And then we get a confessional with Nicole where she
talks about how it's her job to pick up on
suspicious activity and she's trying to figure out if people's
statements don't line up and if she gets any indication
that the vote is on her. She's playing that shot
in the dark. So I think her employer might be
watching this and thinking maybe she's not so good at.

Speaker 7 (01:09:57):
Yeah, employer just immediately calls her like, hey, we had
to let you go wild.

Speaker 1 (01:10:03):
First episode for Nicole, she's spitting somebody's face and then
while talking strategy, throws up.

Speaker 7 (01:10:08):
She kind of got the whole survivor experience in one day.

Speaker 3 (01:10:13):
She threw up so hard and we didn't do that.

Speaker 1 (01:10:16):
No, say that a.

Speaker 4 (01:10:20):
Personally, like I don't, I don't really get it. Like
to me, trashy Annie was the easy choice. Trashy Annie
is the weakest. I thought Nicole actually did pretty good,
especially when it got to the ball puzzle, Like I
don't know how Nicole gets to blame him for what
happened to them, Like they were going pretty far and
they just didn't listen to her.

Speaker 7 (01:10:40):
Yeah, And I feel like Nicole genuinely is like a
really nice personality too, Like it wasn't like she was
annoying or like bothering people.

Speaker 2 (01:10:49):
I mean, the spit thing is.

Speaker 7 (01:10:50):
Like weirdeous, but it's hilarious, and like, I don't think
that if someone just did that to me in the
middle of a challenge and we're on an island already
doing Survivor, I.

Speaker 2 (01:11:00):
Don't think that I'd be like, hey, that's the.

Speaker 7 (01:11:03):
Thing that's making me vote to send you home. Like
I would just be like, that was aird choice. But
whatever it helped.

Speaker 1 (01:11:07):
Did help him, right, I mean, he had his sight back.

Speaker 2 (01:11:10):
It added the pressures like pressure washing, you know.

Speaker 4 (01:11:13):
Yeah, incredible moment.

Speaker 1 (01:11:19):
So it seems pretty obviously like it's gonna be the cole.
But then Sophie tells Trashy Annie the plan of using
her as a decoy and voting out in the Cole,
and she didn't like that because it means that they
lose again. She's next. So Annie pitches Sophie on turning
on the Muscle Bros. After this vote, and Sophie went
along with it, but then she immediately tells the Muscle Bros.
And now Alex is thinking maybe it's time for Trashyny

(01:11:42):
to go, Like, you know, she's got a little bit
of moody, but she takes it just fine, and maybe
she needs to go.

Speaker 2 (01:11:49):
Those are her words.

Speaker 1 (01:11:50):
Claimer I'm not gonna say the other lines because they're
too explicit, but I.

Speaker 7 (01:11:58):
Thought would have been the most problematic on our podcast.

Speaker 6 (01:12:04):
Hey man, we're just all so excited. It's the season premiere.
We're back right back in.

Speaker 1 (01:12:08):
Full switch back after the edit of this, I'm not
problematic at all. So oh, we're.

Speaker 6 (01:12:13):
Everyone's favorite survivor comedians. And PD's the top of the
top of the chart, top.

Speaker 1 (01:12:17):
Of the charts, top of the Now we all know
it's it's uh rab Cestradino, He's the top.

Speaker 6 (01:12:27):
Dude.

Speaker 1 (01:12:27):
I'm gonna bring up something about Rob on the Sanctuary.
Here's a little preview for the Sanctuary, so there's I
think it's Delta or a different airline. They show our
half stuff and apparently every time you watch anything you
get a twenty five to thirty second ad of Rob.
And the people on these flights who are not familiar

(01:12:48):
with the reality TV world, yes, they despise it. And
I have a lot of comments from those people, and
I'm gonna read those little tea.

Speaker 3 (01:12:56):
Them making the Merge podcast.

Speaker 1 (01:12:58):
I want to say, I love I appreciate Rob, I.

Speaker 6 (01:13:02):
Love Dave Rob, I appreciate Rob.

Speaker 7 (01:13:04):
Yeah, I appreciate Rob. Can't listen to his podcast. I'm sorry, guys,
I can.

Speaker 1 (01:13:13):
Because I don't want to steal their takes. You know,
I don't want to get influenced too much.

Speaker 3 (01:13:18):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's why, right, Jonathan.

Speaker 6 (01:13:21):
Yeah, I just want you guys to know, the second
that Rob offers me a contract for his network, I'm out.

Speaker 1 (01:13:28):
You know you're not going to get along with them.

Speaker 6 (01:13:30):
Oh I know, hmmm. I don't get along with anyone.

Speaker 2 (01:13:35):
He doesn't like it. He doesn't even like us. I
don't think exactly. He doesn't want to get along with
us right now, he's forcing himself.

Speaker 1 (01:13:40):
You know, I feel a lot of times working with Chase,
I feel like I'm Mike Tomlin and he's Antonio Brown
and I'm just trying to keep it lit on things.

Speaker 2 (01:13:47):
Are those Steelers references.

Speaker 1 (01:13:49):
Like once again sports references? I'm sorry, guys, I know
this is a nerd podcast.

Speaker 2 (01:13:54):
Well, we could talk about the Steelers all the time.

Speaker 7 (01:13:58):
I do want to say, I do want to get
a moment here about Nicole going home because I think
I shot we brand and PD now we go to
tribal Yeah, like I called it, guys, I already knew.

Speaker 2 (01:14:10):
I feel like I knew she was going home.

Speaker 3 (01:14:12):
Yeah, tell the people win. You knew.

Speaker 7 (01:14:14):
I knew in the episode, I was like, Nicole's going
home according to my information.

Speaker 2 (01:14:19):
I felt, here's what.

Speaker 3 (01:14:20):
I want point in the game, Jonathan, Did you know.

Speaker 7 (01:14:24):
Okay, here's what I'll say. Let me rephrase what I
said last night. On the After Tribal patreonics Fresh Fresh
for Tribal Look, It's.

Speaker 2 (01:14:32):
Too many brand I predicted that.

Speaker 7 (01:14:36):
Nicole would be the first boot before I watched the episode.

Speaker 1 (01:14:40):
Did he tell anybody?

Speaker 3 (01:14:41):
No, that's not what you said last night, Jonathan.

Speaker 7 (01:14:43):
But once we got into like the last thirty minutes,
I was like, I'm right.

Speaker 2 (01:14:47):
I knew it.

Speaker 6 (01:14:49):
So it was down to two people. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:14:50):
So when I said let's all vote out Nicole, you
were like, oh, I think it's Nicole.

Speaker 2 (01:14:55):
No, no, No. When they said let's vote out Nicole,
I was like, I knew. I was right.

Speaker 7 (01:15:00):
That was the moment I had, so just saying, that's
a little teaser for how my draft is gonna go
this year.

Speaker 1 (01:15:07):
Gay And on the Fresh from Tribal show, Jonathan referred
to this as his plan thought. He said, it was
my plan thought that Nicole was going to go home.

Speaker 3 (01:15:20):
Ran it through the system.

Speaker 2 (01:15:24):
It's true.

Speaker 7 (01:15:25):
So I just wanted to let y'all know that the
draft is going to be really bad for you guys
this year.

Speaker 1 (01:15:30):
We'll see it. Also, Nicole went home, And it always
sucks that there has to be a first boot, but
that's just how survivor works. Somebody's dream is gonna get crushed.

Speaker 6 (01:15:39):
You know who I think is worse than the first boot.
The second boot. No one remembers them as much as
the first one. That's so I feel bad for Trashy
Anne next week.

Speaker 1 (01:15:49):
If I thought, I don't know your plan, plant, I'll see.
But it was a pretty standard tribal up until Jeremiah
was like, yeah, I've narrowed it down to two people,
and the person going has no idea except Jonathan.

Speaker 2 (01:16:05):
Also, Trashy Annie is not going home next week. That's
my prediction, and I'm not going to give you any more.

Speaker 1 (01:16:12):
Yeah, she will continue to shake that little bit of booty.

Speaker 2 (01:16:16):
Yeah, hey, I want to.

Speaker 3 (01:16:18):
I want to be as clear as possible.

Speaker 1 (01:16:24):
Quote me, quote her. I don't care ye enough.

Speaker 2 (01:16:28):
Some say they're quoting both when they say that one.

Speaker 1 (01:16:31):
Yeah, hey, we shake it just fine. I also have
a little bit of booty that I shake just fine,
my words, I'm thinking about shaking it.

Speaker 6 (01:16:41):
Yeah, all right, guys, let's get.

Speaker 4 (01:16:42):
Out, all right, if it's okay, If it's okay with you, guys. One,
I just want to remind people, you know, we'll come
back next week. It's gonna be a lot of fun.
Come back on what day does the Sanctuary come out?

Speaker 1 (01:16:52):
Should be Monday? Maybe Monday night day.

Speaker 4 (01:16:55):
For some random Survivor news and whatnot. But I did
watch this episode with my kids. I asked them their
thoughts on the episode.

Speaker 3 (01:17:03):
So it's okay.

Speaker 4 (01:17:03):
I'd like to close the episode with the thoughts of
a seven and five year old.

Speaker 3 (01:17:08):
This is a yes, all right, here we go.

Speaker 4 (01:17:13):
All right, Griz, tell everybody what you thought about Survivor
last night. It was funny because they said like a
lot of party words and what did.

Speaker 3 (01:17:24):
