Jackery, I felt like I seen you last night.
[00:03:14] Then you ghosted me and now you're here again. What's popping with you, Jack? What's up? No ghosting occurred last night. Just a little bit tired. Had to get home. Had to wake up bright and early for work today. But yeah, last night was a great time. Excited to be here to recap the episode that we all got to sort of watch together last night. And we got a great guest for it too. So very, very, very pop. So, yes.
[00:03:41] Wendeezy, I'm going to need your help introducing this guest because I was with this guest last night. And this guest had to cut me out a little bit. Okay? This guest had to let me know he was standing on business. So I don't want no smoke on the pod. So Wendeezy, can you do the honors? Oh, ladies and gentlemen, we would like to welcome to Survivor News one of the most memorable players the game has ever seen.
[00:04:11] He might be not the largest in stature, but he's the largest in effort and in gameplay. And in hypeness, he is from Survivor 47. The one and only Rome is in the building. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. It's good to be here. You know, I appreciate you guys having me on. It's awesome. I enjoyed listening to you guys all my season.
[00:04:40] And so now it's cool to be a part of one. So it's going to be great. Yes. Now, Ron, we got some things to discuss real quick before we discuss the discussing. Now, anything you want to say to anybody about the brand T-Move? Hey, listen, listen, man. I seen that shot, man. I seen that shot. Okay. I seen Wendell. Wendell. I seen it, man. They said they said that I'm the T-Move version. They said I'm the T-Move Q.
[00:05:10] They said I'm the T-Move Q. Y'all said that. Wendell said that. I seen you say that, man. I seen you say that. But listen, let me just say, let me just say. Me and Q definitely both had big impacts on our seasons. I lasted half the episodes. I never asked to quit. You know what I'm saying? Like, let's we really talk about it. You know what I'm saying? I didn't ask to leave. And people was like, no, we're keeping you around. No, if I asked to leave ever, I was gone. I was out of there. That wouldn't have happened.
[00:05:39] Let's just get that straight. Okay. So, and we talk about the T-Move. We talk about the T-Move Q. But, you know, we had Q on last week. We seen those numbers. So, I know why y'all called me. Because, you know, y'all had to boost it up a little bit. You know what I'm saying? We had to boost up. Wait, wait, wait, wait. Now, wait, wait, wait. Now, bro, the Purple Pants podcast ain't going to be taking no shots. Listen, the YouTube numbers might not be high.
[00:06:08] But, baby, check them podcast download. Hey, listen, man. I'm just saying. I'm going to bring it up for season 48. I got y'all. For episode two. I got y'all, man. I got y'all. Wow. Everybody was all blast there. But he wasn't lying. I don't know. What was the podcast stimulus package? Blow my socks off. Listen, man.
[00:06:38] I'm having fun, man. I'm having fun out here. And, you know, it's time to have fun. It's after my season, man. I'm on a podcast. I'm going to have fun. I'm going to speak my mind. You know what I'm saying? It's a hot start. We've had two guests this season. And there's already beef between the guests. I'm like, we need to have to keep a roll in it. Crazy. I got to call James Jones. Featuring Brandon Hance. There's going to be some real smoke. Oh, my gosh.
[00:07:06] Before things came, we had a lot of time. And we've done a lot of talking about Rome. So he's finally here. He can represent himself. And I know he can hold his own. So here we are. You know? We got to look the man in his eyes now. You know? See, this is my home right here. See, I'm an esports commentator. I'm used to the mic in front of me. The webcam. Talking right into the webcam. You know what I'm saying? I'm used to this. You know what I'm saying? I was made for this. So this is a little bit of my domain that y'all walking into right now. That's all I'm saying.
[00:07:37] Okay, listen. We're in Rome's home. Okay? Well, I am super excited now. We are getting off super hot. And I'm ready to get into this episode. But last night, the BWP48 pulled on into L.A. And L.A. definitely did its thing. The rain doesn't stop. A Bryson Wynn present event. Okay? We still move. We still shake. It was amazing. So much fun. Rome was there. It was some puddles outside.
[00:08:07] Rome had to jump over the puddles. All right, we just go be roasting all night. We just go be roasting all night. It was a drop of water. And Rome had to get a running start. And Rome was like, I had to jump over that. Jack and I just went. Oh, man. How did everyone enjoy the event?
[00:08:37] What was it like? What was it like? For the event, for everyone. For me, seeing Phillip Shepard in the building was just like the legend himself. It was crazy. But love to hear what you, Rome, Jack, what y'all thought. I mean, so my thoughts, like, honestly, last night was awesome. Even though, like, you know, it was a little bit loud in the building. You know, that's what happens when you get so many passionate Survivor fans. Is that, you know, with also so many alumni. And like, there was like amazing race people there.
[00:09:06] And just like, so many people in the CBS family. Big brother people there. Like, and, you know, anytime you get that many people together, it's going to be, it's going to be, it's going to be rowdy. And it was fun, man. It was great. We got to see a couple of the 48ers that were in the building, too. They popped out. You never know who's going to show up to these events, man. And that's the great thing about these Bryce and Wendell events. Like you said, Phillip Shepard came out. Like, I was like, what in the world? Phillip Shepard. I got to take a picture immediately, man. Like, that dude is an absolute legend. You know what I'm saying? People forget that he got second place, man.
[00:09:35] He got second place. Like, people forget that, man. The dude was a character. But guess what? He was still able to make it to the end. So, you know, big props to him for coming out and showing love. There was Caleb out there. There was Tiffany that showed up. There was so many people that just popped out. That's exactly what you want to see. So, I appreciate you guys and what you guys do for the community because it's honestly amazing, all these events. If you haven't went to one yet, telling you, it's worth going to. I don't care if you got to book a flight to go there. If you're like, okay, one's one city over.
[00:10:05] Look for the cheapest flight out of all of the ones left and be like, look, I'm going to go to that. Because trust me, if you haven't been, they're worth going. It's an incredible thing. And it's something you're going to have. It's a memory you're going to have for the rest of your life. I promise. Okay. When do we clip in that? That's our new promo. Tour 49. Okay. Yeah. I mean, I had a great time too. Rome said it all. But it's great. You always see some old friends. You also make some new friends. And obviously seeing everyone from the community was excellent.
[00:10:33] You know, so many interesting characters popping up. And, you know, it was a new venue. Some technical difficulties. But here's the thing I like about it, Bryson Wynn. Sometimes you might not catch the whole. You might get caught up. You might be grabbing a drink with somebody. You might. But then the episode, it's like a little teaser. You go home the next day. It's like you get to watch it again. Fresh perspective. So, it's really like a two for one if you think about it. So, it was really the best. Way to clean that one up, Jackery. We will use the Rome.
[00:11:03] We will use the Rome. Yes, we will take the Rome. But nevertheless, LA definitely delivered. And the BWP Tour 48 continues next week. We will be in San Francisco continuing our tour on the West Coast. And let's be clear, the sound, everything will be right in San Francisco. And then the following week, we will be in Nashville. We've got some amazing people coming out to all of the cities.
[00:11:32] You know my man, my man. Austin said, you on the West Coast. I'm popping out with you. We got the Queen of Traitors. There you go. Jelinski, Franny is going to be amazing. And oh, if you did not know Rome in Nashville, Quinn, Quinn, Quinn, Quinn, Quinn, Quintavious will be there. So, you know, I'm just. Okay, okay. And we have so many more stops. And if you don't want to miss out, go to BryceAndWynn.com and get your tickets.
[00:12:02] And we will see you on the road. Listen, we have such an interesting episode. We've got the commentator himself, Rome here. Jack, this episode, I texted you earlier. No spoilers because we're on the same coast. And it was Thursday. So I text Jack and I said, Jack. I cannot wait to hear what you have to say. Also want to shout out to the Jack Shack that was in the building yesterday. Someone came up to me and was like, I'm part of the posse. He looked around. He said, I am the Jack Shack.
[00:12:35] You told me that. Some people came up to me and showed love. But whoever said that to you didn't announce that they, you know. Going forward, guys, if you're in the Jack Shack, you got an honorary VIP meet and greet. You say I'll buy you a drink. Just say you're in the Jack Shack. You're going to make my day. All right. So just know that. But thank you guys for showing up. Sorry, I didn't mean that. No, no. Well, and also listen. I'll be reading. I want a Jack.
[00:13:05] What's up? I want a Jack. A Jack? Oh, yeah. You're going to have to build that on your shelf, Wendell. Mr. Wendell. Classic Wendell. No, no, Wendell. We're good. We're good. What was that blanket you made on Winners at War? What was it? You could.
[00:13:34] It had a name, right? It had a name. I forget. It's all good. We all forget it, too, Wendell. It's all good. We all forget it. It's okay. Whoever you can fit under. Whoa! Well, my bad, Rome. That's right. It was a bunch of millionaires on that island. You're right. You're right. You're right. I'm sure it was a great time. I'm sure it was a great time. I had to throw it in. My bad, I had to throw it in. It's all, uh...
[00:14:03] I know what it's called. I know what it's called. A Womper. A Womper. Whoever wants to get in under the Womper. No, no, no. It's the Wends. It's nothing. It's nothing. A funny story, though, real quick. Bradley from Ghost Island was in the building yesterday. Shout out to Bradley. Y'all know I love Bradley.
[00:14:27] And the venue that we were at wanted to play some Survivor seasons on different TVs before the episode came on. And Bradley walks in. It's literally his vote-out episode. And he's like, what type of welcoming surprise is this? But then I walk away. I come back 15 minutes later. Bradley has set up shop at the bar.
[00:14:56] And it's like, you know, I've never actually seen this episode in its entirety. And he's watching his boot-out of Ghost Island. So that was kind of crazy in itself. I heard him telling fans that he was on the new season. That's what it was. Nah, nah. I like Bradley. I like Bradley. But it was funny. I walked in and saw, like, the Stephanie boot or whatever. I was like, it's a new season. What year is it?
[00:15:26] Did we go through a time machine? Yeah. I was like, this season sucks. And listen, listen. As much flack as Ghost Island may have gotten, in all seriousness, when I did my binge, like, my super binge of all the seasons, Ghost Island was one that stuck out to me. Like, I really thought that that was a really good season. Like, so I was kind of surprised once, like, you know, after I started getting into the Reddits and things like that, that people were like, oh, they didn't have the season that high of ranking. And I was like, I don't know why. Like, I thought it was, I thought it was really cool through and through.
[00:15:55] I thought it had a cool duo that made it all the way to the end. It had the first ever straight up tie at the end. I'm like, how did y'all not like it? Personally, that's just my thoughts. But, you know. You know what? Well, thank you, Rome. All right. So y'all love me to make it a part. You are the Louis Vuitton version of Q. Okay. Thank you very much. You are the Gucci version of Q. Okay. You are. Thank you. Thank you, Rome. You know what? Q is gone.
[00:16:22] We got to give Rome a nickname because this Rome right here, this is like, this, no, this is Jerome. Okay. Jerome with us. Rome, can I ask Jerome a question real quick since we talked about Zilean? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Who you thought should have won? In the moment, I thought, I thought, I thought, I thought Dom was going to win. In the moment, I thought Dom was going to win.
[00:16:49] I didn't really know who I thought should have won because I felt like they did everything together. So, like, also, I thought that Wendell's fire making kind of put him, like, a little bit more even. Like, because at first I was like, okay, I think Dom's going to get it. But then once Wendell won fire making, I was like, okay, it could go either way now. Because, like, the way Wendell won it when he was putting them sticks down, I still remember he just looking over while putting them sticks down with a straight face. I'm like, nah, this dude got it. I was like, Wendell might win this thing. And it ended up being a tie.
[00:17:16] So, and, you know, that early game connection that he was able to make early on in the game ended up being the vote that he needed to win the million. So, yeah, props to Wendell, you know? Jack, don't the fans, for season 50, didn't Jeff say, like, we'd be able to vote for the fire? Don't the fans not like the fire making challenge? I would say the fans that kind of are, you know, the super fans. I would say I'm generally against the fire.
[00:17:46] I think, yeah, I think they're against the fire making. But, you know, the casual fan out in, you know, wherever, the middle of nowhere might like the fire. I like it. I vote to keep fire making. Like, it makes sense. I think that the only reason why the quote-unquote diehard fans don't like fire making is because of the season it was introduced and, like, at the time. And it wasn't announced to the players beforehand. So, when, like, everyone thought Ben was going home when he had the letter upside down, everyone
[00:18:14] was like, oh, my goodness, yay, Ben's going home because they were rooting against him. And then, boom, it's actually fire making that night instead. So, I think a lot of people were more just upset at how it was introduced rather than upset at what fire making actually is. So, that's my thing. I do think that's a knock against it. I do have other gripes with the fire making challenge. I don't know if we want to get into all that right now. Maybe that's something we save for later. But I think there's other flaws with the fire making challenge. But it's not as bad as... I can go either way. But I prefer no fire making.
[00:18:42] Because the nice thing is, when there's no fire making challenge, but then there's a tie, it feels like the fire making challenge, the drama is so much more intense. Because there was a tie. It's unexpected. And I also think, just to quickly make... You know, if you have an idol or whatever, you can play an idol at five. You can make fire at four. Or there's no opportunity for you to actually get voted out. There's no need to play Survivor after six if you have an idol. So, I think it would be nice to see people maneuver a little bit more.
[00:19:12] And I also think it was introduced to help bigger threats make it to the end. But now, it's more important to take bigger threats out earlier, I think, which is actually a little bit counterproductive. So, anyways. Yeah. My suggestion that I have is that at the final four, the final four immunity, the immunity necklace can be used as an immunity idol for that night. So, essentially, you can play it on somebody after the votes are cast.
[00:19:38] So, essentially, it makes it where that last immunity matters a ton. Because if you know everyone's voting for one person, you can say, nope, after the votes are cast and put that necklace around them and be like, they're actually safe tonight. And you voted somewhere else, and that person's actually going home now, and you just set up your final three how you want. I think that that would be interesting. If they are going to remove fire making, I think that they need to replace something else. And I think that would be a good replacement. I'm not mad at that, Rome. I'm not mad at that. Neither am I. I agree with that, Rome, because I always feel as though you should be able to play that
[00:20:08] individual immunity like an idol. Yep. Now, listen. Me too. We're here for season 48, okay? Mm-hmm. And listen, our fans are very active in the comments. They will be like, y'all talking too much. Because, listen, they tell me to shut up, okay? They say, I know it's Bryce's podcast, but he talks too much. I write the comment. Okay, I agree. That's a loud minority that's speaking. That's not the majority belief, Bryce. People like you lead in the way.
[00:20:37] Majority see a super long podcast and are hyped. Okay, Bryce, you good to go. You good. Silent majority. We're here.
[00:21:08] We're here. Wir sind Teresa und... Nemo. But you're right, Bryce. But I hope people can appreciate the Survivor 50, you know, vote talk a little bit. But Bryce talking Survivor 48 before we get into the actual episode, I see about half of your shirt and I'm very curious as to what's going on. We got the Mary merch. Can you walk us through it a little bit?
[00:21:33] I believe it is Mother Mary. And, you know, I support my Mother Mary's mission. And so I support the cast. I love to buy the shirts. Mary is currently living in Philly and Philadelphia Eagles won and Saquon we trust. So listen, I'm with Mother Mary, OK? What does Saquon have to do with Mary? What does it say on your shirt, Bryce? I support Mary. What's it say?
[00:22:02] And I am here because I love Mary and I support the merch. Now, let's let's keep the podcast rolling. So, Bryce, I'm curious. We'll let the Mother Mary's missionaries slide for now. But you did you did text me that there was a specific moment that you really wanted to talk about. And so I feel like what better way to kick things off than whatever really stuck out to you? I OK. And we got Rome here.
[00:22:31] So this is great. So I was getting flashbacks of Kageon. And I'm going to be honest, seeing Star this episode, I felt for Star a lot. It seemed like from the edit in which we got, it seemed like nobody was bonding with Star. Star sees people going off and Star is left by themselves. And so, like, if you left by themselves, what you supposed to do, Rome? Look for an idol.
[00:23:02] Right. And so Star does that because she needs to defend herself. And then it just I felt like it was just things happening to Star. I felt like in that situation, I've been there. And then I also just then kind of felt like some mismanaging of the game kind of sort of happened with Star and telling everybody and everybody telling everybody.
[00:23:26] And so I just I don't know that Star moment just really stuck out for me because I really kind of empathize with her in the sense of like you're cool with people. Clearly, people are talking, but it just seems like Star's being othered a little bit and not by anyone's fault or anything. It just kind of is happening that way. But I just felt for Star. Star. Yeah, I mean, I feel the same way watching it.
[00:23:49] Like it was it was tough, like even even at the start, like first thing, obviously, when you're out there, you wake up, you're pretty much just waiting for tree mail. You know, I'm saying you're always checking it. So, like, I'm sure they check tree mail. Then that's that's when they started talking about the challenge because the tree mail said it was going to be water, like running, like diving in, whatever. So so when Eva, Eva started saying, OK, we need Joe and Shane and me for strength, like we need Thomas and Bianca for a puzzle.
[00:24:14] And star, you can sit out, which I thought was a wild thing to to do is throw out someone's name like directly like and be like, you should sit out because that's essentially saying we think you're weak at puzzles. We think that you're weak physically. We also think that like, yeah, that's just like we think that we're also better at those things than you. Not just that you're bad, but we're better even if we're not great at it. We think like so that whole thing threw me off. So that was that was what threw me off.
[00:24:43] And so star had every right to be upset and and had every right to tell every single person about her advantage except for Eva. Are you kidding me? Like, if you just tell me I'm the one that can sit out and I find an advantage, you think I'm going to tell you first? Like, no, she's literally everyone but her. So like it makes sense as to why why star tried to get these alliances that way.
[00:25:06] I also just want to comment, like, I know Eva has shared with us that like her she doesn't sometimes social cues are hard for her to read. And here's the thing, Eva. I mean, it made for great TV, right? Like I I if was interesting enough, like telling somebody to their face because it's not like. She, but it's like you can't say she's running behind her back.
[00:25:33] Like, so it's interesting how that kind of plays itself because had star said something to Eva, then maybe they could have worked it out. But like watching it is just like, oh, but that's the thing. There's never a need to talk about who's sitting out before you even see the challenge. Like, who cares about a description? Like, if you haven't seen the challenge, you don't know what's at the end. They talked about puzzles. There was no puzzle there. It was basketball at the end. And guess what? Star plays basketball. So why are we sitting here talking about, like, who should be sitting out and doing what and things like that?
[00:26:03] Has star conveyed that she's not comfortable in the water? I know that star just learned how to swim recently so that she might have conveyed that to her tribe. And we didn't see that. So that might be why Eva's like, oh, if it's a water challenge, you've already let us know that you're not comfortable in the water. You just learn to swim so you can sit out. You know what I'm saying? Like, and so it might have been a lighthearted thing on Eva's end, but it could easily be taken the wrong way, taken out of context. It could easily go the wrong way.
[00:26:33] And for Star to at least just take it as, like, don't tell me what to do, I think that that was about as good as Star could have probably taken it. So, yeah. Well, I feel like that's what we've picked up on. Eva is probably the person that's most aware of how this might be a detriment to her because I think it's a clear example of, you know, didn't phrase it the right way. I didn't really read the room, of course, and that's something she called out as being a struggle for her. And so, I mean, I'm with you.
[00:27:01] I think Star had the right interpretation, too. And I think that this is going to be something we're going to have to watch, you know, the highs and lows of what Eva is going to be doing in the game. And it's, I mean, it's good for Eva. She's got some close people, too, now. But, Bryce, I hear you. Like, Star hasn't really done anything wrong. I'm glad she went out and got the beware advantage.
[00:27:20] It just feels like it was, it's sort of, and people talked about this last week, it just sort of by merit of these immediately, like, weirdly close duos that form between Joe and Eva, between Bianca and Thomas. I mean, to be fair, Joe and Eva, that's a pretty unexpected duo. That's not just, like, two people that are super similar, just being, like, we're the same. I mean, but, I mean, their daughter. Yeah, I was about to say, it's the youngest person, the youngest girl in the tribe and the oldest guy on the tribe.
[00:27:49] So, it's the easy father-daughter dynamic. Like, so, that's definitely something that you'd look for out there. Like, that definitely makes sense. I suppose. That doesn't always happen. Yeah, it doesn't always. Yeah. I hear you. I hear you. Obviously, Bianca and Thomas, pretty similar individuals. And it starts, I really like Shaheen talking through this dilemma of helping Star with the beware advantage here. Because now it's sort of like Shaheen's, like, could Star be my sneaky duo?
[00:28:16] And I don't want to, you know, Star somebody to me with information. I don't want to necessarily just hand her the clue to it, like the secret to unlocking this. I don't want to sabotage her necessarily. So, I like that Shaheen's, like, let me leave the option open but not lock it in for her. Right. Now, can we talk real quick about Killer Thomas?
[00:28:40] Now, listen, I have a dilemma because it's like, why you want to do my girl like that? Don't do Star like that. And the other part of me is like, oh, you like, you's a killer and I like it. Like, that like, oh, like, sorry, I just, sorry, because I feel like sometimes as a gay man, they think, like, the gays don't want to come out there and play.
[00:29:08] But Thomas said, or maybe we can just make it disappear. I was like, oh. Mafia shit. Like, that scared the hell out of me and I loved every second of it, even though I hated it. But I was like, yo, Thomas is, he playing. But I'm like, Thomas was playing so much, he scared Shaheen. Thomas was like, just get rid of it.
[00:29:37] Nobody would know. Shaheen was like, oh, wait, okay. I don't know. Like, and I am nervous now because it's like, Shaheen now knows that Thomas is a killer. And, but like, that was just so unexpected though. Like, what did y'all think when that happened? Like, I thought Thomas was going to be like, we can just not, we don't, we don't have to help her. We can pretend like Thomas was like, get rid of it.
[00:30:12] So, so listen, I understand both sides of the coin, right? I understand Thomas's point of view. I didn't know any of this. Now I'm getting all this information within the hour. And you telling me the star doesn't have a vote. She's not in our, our alliance and she can't play her shot in the dark. Okay, cool. Lose it. What we're good. What we need to help her for. Like I get in the moment thought process. Right. But Shaheen, he's sitting there thinking. I don't want to fight against the power. I'd rather work with the power because guess what?
[00:30:42] The game just started. Why do people have a need all of a sudden in this new era to just go against the power instead of wanting to work with it? I don't understand it. If somebody has the power, why do people instantly try to fight it? Why instead of work with it when the person in power wants to work with them? Why do people try to turn on the. Are you speaking from personal experience, bro? I'm speaking from recent seasons. That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. It just happens too often. People do it so early in the game and I don't understand it. Like, I don't get it.
[00:31:10] But sometimes I feel like it, like I feel that wrong, but I also feel like there is the sense of if you go with, if you go with the power for too long, then it's too powerful. And in this new era, who's to say what is too long? Like, I don't know. It's day five. Listen, they say in y'all 26 seasons, day five is like week three. Nah, chill. Nah, nah, nah. It ain't like that. It ain't like that.
[00:31:38] And somebody that won zero food rewards and didn't eat anything my entire time out there except for the fish that I caught. But yeah, it was, it's definitely not as, I'll say in my opinion, it's not as bad as some people complain it to be the starving. So yeah. I lost 28 pounds in 12 days. How much fish did you catch, bro? Caught 13 fish. 13. They may have been small, but guess what?
[00:32:08] The smaller they are, the harder it is to hit them, right? So that's almost more impressive. You know what I'm saying? You caught a goldfish? I've never heard that. Wait, what? The smaller they are, what? I've never heard that before, Rome. The smaller they are? The bigger it is. The bigger it is. No, my hotel Wi-Fi is like spotty spotty. What did you say? The smaller the fish are in the sea, you know what I'm saying?
[00:32:35] The harder it is to catch them, especially with the Hawaiian sling, you know? Whoa. Well, let me, let me swat. I was going to show his sling to all the fish in the sea. Speaking of fish in the sea, I don't know if y'all saw the secret scene from this week. Were you guys able to see that yet or no? I haven't.
[00:33:03] So the secret scene was a certain someone with fishing gear fishing. So I don't know if y'all have seen that, but y'all can go check that out. Did somebody say fishing gear? Yo, I had something to say, but I forgot it. I'll say that I love this killer. This is the type of villain. Thomas is the type of like villain that I love because he's hilarious.
[00:33:31] He's super nice, but like he will clearly cut throats. I'm a little nervous because obviously he shows that killer instinct episode two. Now, I think Shaheen might similarly have that in him though. So it could lead to a very devious duo. But I am a little nervous. Like Thomas did that. He also ultimately lies about getting an advantage at the journey, which I don't think is a bad move. I love Thomas's mindset of keep the advantage to yourself.
[00:33:58] But I think eventually that's going to come to light because there's going to be other people that were on the journey that were like, oh, we had to play. So Thomas and then it's like, oh, things might catch up to Thomas, but I like the diabolical way that he's playing the game. It's so funny. He's so funny too. And then I agree. Like it's easy for Thomas to be like, let's get rid of the advantage. But if you're Shaheen and you lose the advantage, the best case scenario is stars going to be like, what the hell? Like you just lost your health.
[00:34:27] That's the best case. Like stars at best is just pissed that you lost it at worst. Never trust you again. So I think Shaheen played everything the right way, which was really nice. I agree. I was really impressed with Shaheen this episode. You know, the fact that he didn't just immediately be like, yeah, let's get rid of it. Like, let's do it.
[00:34:46] Like he thought about it and he was like, no, that's a little too devious even for like, you know, I guess he, you know, he thought that, you know, from what it sounded like in the confessional, he thought that he was going to, you know, be able to make these devious moves and things like that. But he already realized like, this is a little bit too devious for me is for me. So I can respect that from Shaheen. In that case, all the blood is on his hands. So not necessarily.
[00:35:13] Because it could be a little bit of Joe as well. Because it's like, don't put it. Oh, yeah. Well, yeah. The piece of paper. Yeah. If he loses that. You know. I mean, I also feel like a good. Because, you know, you know, Thomas is gay. I'm gay. So we think alike. I was thinking like Shaheen could say that he put it in his pocket and went swimming. And like, it deteriorated. But. You know.
[00:35:43] That's not an answer. I'm going to be like, pull that soggy piece of paper out of your pocket. That's a better idea than just to make it. Yeah. Right. Right. And another. You're like. Right. Another interesting thing, though. It was interesting when Star went to Joe.
[00:36:07] And then we see Joe kind of like having this reflection moment about like all of these relationships and what it's weighing on him like with like having Eva then meeting with Star. And he's got these other people. And he's like, he says what a lot of alums say that you go in the survivor wanting to play, but then you make these relationships and then it complicates it because you're dealing with real people. But ultimately, I feel like in that montage, Joe was like, he's riding for Eva, period. So. Yeah.
[00:36:37] Not really much. And it's like it's going to put Joe in a tough position, but it's the classic. Like if anyone else is in Joe's shoes and people come to you with info or like deals, you're not going to be like, no. You know what I mean? But you play so well, you play yourself into a position that you have to have to stab someone in the back. So like how I see it is Joe played himself into a corner.
[00:37:00] Like that's how I see the situation by him telling Eva and also being aligned with everyone else, including Star, who told him about the beware advantage. Now, if Star, from what it sounds like, Shaheen's going to help or he's not trying to sabotage it. So eventually, like he said, she will get it open. Right. He said that like it's not that that difficult based on how she was saying it. So if Star gets that idol, if they got to go to tribal, guess what? Star is not going home. She's based off how she's feeling right now. She's probably going to probably going to play it on herself.
[00:37:27] And then now Joe either has to get rid of somebody he's trying to work with, like immediately, like Joe has zero outs right here. If Star is Star gets that idol and plays it as the first tribal, he's going to lose somebody he wants to work with. So right now, I think. I mean, does he want to work with Bianca? That's really we haven't seen anything. That's an option, but like, look, it makes it rocky when right away. Here's the thing. I also don't think Loggie is really due for a tribal anytime soon.
[00:37:54] It obviously makes it rocky when you've got to cut someone you want to work with. But at the same time, I think it's a really good problem to have in Survivor if you want to work with everybody so much in your group that it's difficult to have to get rid of someone. Right. You'd rather have to get rid of a potential ally than just have a bunch of enemies. But I agree with you. Joe is in a tough spot. It's going to be interesting to see how he navigates it. Yeah. Can we talk about something very. I missed on the watch, but I caught on the rewatch.
[00:38:24] What is it? It's not one. It's not dos. It's not tres. But it's cinco. Uno, dos, tres. Hold on. Uno, dos, tres, cinco. Uno, dos, tres. Quatro? There you go. Okay. Quatro.
[00:38:52] I mean, the good Lord has blessed David with not only height. Not only hair. Not only muscles. Okay. And allegedly in my mind, I was dreaming that I was walking into a venue and my feet got light from being in a puddle. And I was carried in to a watch party. But that was in my dreams. But not only.
[00:39:21] Is David. Have one nipple. He's got two nipples. He's got three nipples. I mean, it's just a party on David's chest. And it's my quinceyata. Okay. Everything about what you just said was just terrible. I'm sorry. I'll wait. Also, I can't answer. Yeah.
[00:39:48] Also, I don't know if you should be talking about nipples at the quinceyera. All the action in talk about you got puddles in your dreams. Like, Bryce, you got to chill. Let's do the D.A.C.O. show before. You know what I mean? No. No. Now, so why? Why? That's something. These are supposed to be humble traits, Bryce. You're a. I don't even want to ask. You're a fan of a couple extra nipples. Like. That's a little bit weird.
[00:40:18] More to the party. Okay. Shame on his parents for having them removed. Not only does he have one. But he has two. Thank you. Well. I think. Wait. I think you can check that. Did you count a belly button? Well. Now, now, Chrissy. Bryce never seen a belly button he didn't like. Now, okay.
[00:40:48] Off topic. Random. Now. By show. Be honest. By show of hands. Have you ever like. Clinked your belly button with like your hand. And then been like. Like. No, Bryce. I've cleaned it, but I haven't sniffed it. That's such a Bryce. I'd say a thing. You've never like. Got in the back of your ear and then like. See what it smelled like. The back.
[00:41:17] I just. It would just smell like. The back of your ear. The back of your ear. Like you know like oily. What does the back of your ear smell like? I don't know. It kind of almost smells similar to like your belly button. So you've compared the two within. Within a close enough time frame. To recognize the difference between the belly button smell. And back of the ear smell. No. Bryce will hit both at once. And then. Boom. I.
[00:41:48] I am a little weird. In the sense that like. I. Have to know what things smell like. I know it's like very weird. But like. I have to like categorize stuff. Okay. All right. So what do we think about these humble traits? Like overall. Like so we had. We had David with the four nipples. We had. Charity with the feet. We had Chrissy with the deep belly button. We had. We had. Kyle with the wart on his finger. With the. Well. I guess. What'd he say? He said it was. What'd he say? A callus.
[00:42:18] A callus. A callus. A callus. A callus. And then I like Mitch. Just being like. Well it's pretty obvious. I thought that was fun. You know. Some were more humble than others. Like I don't. Also. I felt it. It was kind of weird. That Charity was like. One of my feet is nice. But the other looks. I'm like. They're usually pretty identical. You know. But yeah. I don't know. I don't really need the.
[00:42:47] The foot cam on Survivors. They've been. They've been working that into the edit a lot. Did Camilla have a humble trait? I forgot. She. If she mentioned one. Or if it kind of just ended with Kyle. Talk about. I don't remember her. Yeah. I don't. I don't remember it. I don't. I don't. I don't know if she. I don't know if she might. She mentioned one. But what are your guys' humble traits? Let's talk about it. Bryce. Go first. Oh. My humble traits. Like I have.
[00:43:17] I have. I have a really big birthmark. Okay. What is it? It's like. I don't. It's like. It's like. The shape of Africa on my back. Okay. Got it. Have we. Did we see it on Survivor? Is it ever like. Was it ever visible on Survivor? I mean. I. They only show me twice. It wasn't a lot of footage to go over. Right. It wasn't a lot of footage.
[00:43:48] Not a lot. Okay. What about you? What about you? The beauty. The beauty. I saw it. They're like. Where's Africa? Um. I don't. I don't know what mine is yet. Okay. I'll say my height. I'll say my height. You know. Right. What is. Your height. Uh. Like five nine on a good day. You know. What about on a bad day? On a bad day.
[00:44:17] We ain't even talking about those days. On a normal day. Is that why you wore the lightning hoodie? Because it like. Extends you the body. It like. Makes you look longer. Oh yeah. Yeah. Gotta avoid wearing all black. So I don't look. Tiny. You know what I'm saying? Like. They picked him up. They thought he was a pencil. It's like. I'm sorry.
[00:44:48] I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Jack. Would you say your height. Is a humble trait? Um. Almost. I would say. You know. I can't grow hair. On the bottom of my chin. And that messes up my facial hair. I'll say. And that. That limits my options. Very specific. They. They said you need to eat. More watermelon.
[00:45:18] All right. Is that. Yes. That's like a remedy. For. I don't know. For patchiness. Because I can grow it like. Yeah. And then I can grow it. The thing is. I can grow it here too. And it's just like. Why is there a little. You need. You need to grow it. And. And. Rock the comb over. The comb over beard. I've done that before. Okay.
[00:45:47] I had a hole in my beard. Somewhere. And I had to like. All right. Wrong. Wrong. The commentator. Do your thing. Wendell. Is that. Wendell. Is that. Your humble trait? Right. Yeah. Yeah. Now that. Now that you're telling me that. I don't remember where it was. But I had a hole in my beard. So Wendell's humble traits. He one time had a hole in his beard. Ten years ago. Humble traits. When you win a million dollars. There ain't a lot of humble traits. You know what I'm saying. Ain't there? I was going to say.
[00:46:15] It's a telltale sign when you ask. And someone's like. I can't think of one. Right. Right. Oh man. But yeah. Back to. Back to the episode. Because. You know what I'm saying. The viewers. The few and far between. That you know. Want us to move this thing along. Let's talk about the journey. Now. Now. Now wrong. Nah. We were talking about the small group. The small. Hold on. Hold on. I was referring to the small group. That wants us to skip ahead.
[00:46:45] And you know. Keep it pushing. And things like that. Okay. That's what I'm talking about. We're talking about the loud commenters. That's what I was referring to. On that note. I remember. On our draft. I'm going to say this. Someone was like. Someone with a weird ass. You know. With a name that was like. A thousand different letters and numbers. Was like. Bryce. You suck. Your takes. Basically. But I. I got to say. The Kevin Third Boot. Call. Not far off. So.
[00:47:15] I got to give you some credit there. Wow. Thank you. Got to give you credit. Okay. You weren't too high on Kevin coming in? No. I. I was. But I felt like. Kevin. Like he was so likable. And. I didn't know. If it would last. And. Unfortunately. I was right. But. Being. An early boot. Is. A badge of honor. So no. He wasn't too high on him coming in. Yeah. Yeah. No.
[00:47:47] We all chose two options for a potential third boot. Two people that might be a potential merge boot. And one potential winner. And Bryce had Kevin and Kyle as third boots. Which. In the moment was. A little bit shocking. But. I mean. So far. Kevin's the closest one. None of us had picked. Stephanie for anything. So. Okay. We'll see next week though. Because that's the real third boot. And maybe. One of us will. Will hit that one too. Can we. Can we talk about the journey. The journey real quick. Yeah. And how.
[00:48:16] They were told. The game to play. To decide. Who goes out there. I thought that that was really. Really interesting. How they got told. All right. Everyone on the count of three. Everyone holds out fingers. One through five. Um. And I thought that the reason this was so interesting. Was because. I'm sure. You guys. Do you guys own the. The survivor board game? No. I do. You do? Okay. Okay. Have you guys played it yet? Have you guys been able to play it? I played a little bit. I played with James Jones. But like.
[00:48:46] It was James Jones. So like. He was arguing. It was. This is one of the games. This is one of the games. In the board game. So I thought. It was cool. I thought it was cool. That they have. You do something. That's in the board game. In the survivor board game. In the actual game of survivor. That way. It like. It brings a little. More validity to it. Also right after. They got Jeff. With the promo. Holding the board game up. I was like. Wow. This was. That was so well planned. Like. To do that a year ago. Like. That's.
[00:49:15] That's incredible. Because with us. It was just. Figure out who's going. And we just rock paper scissors it up. A bunch of times. So. Yeah. I thought that was. That was really cool. So what was. I was going to say. Tell me your thoughts. On this little. Finger throwing challenge. What. If you. If you guys were out there. What. You. You probably have a minute. To think through a little strategy. What do you. Rome. Start us off. Okay. So I was. Listen. When I saw this. When I saw this. I was like. This is the. This is the easiest game to rig. In the world. Like the easiest one in the world.
[00:49:45] You have an alliance of four. Everyone just throw numbers. One through four. Guaranteed. One of your people in the alliance. Is going. No matter what. Literally. No matter what. Mary throws. You just throw one through four. Which are the alliance. And one of y'all is going. It's that simple. Do you think you had an opportunity. To like. Conspire about that. I mean. I was thinking the same thing. But. You don't need to conspire. You can tell Mary to her face. We're all throwing one through four. It don't matter what you throw. You're not going. You she throw. Rome. Rome. You were. You were known to. Yeah.
[00:50:14] You strong arms. Some people on your season. Why you're telling them to strong arm Mary. Listen. The same way that say was at tribal council saying. Look. If you going home. Why do we got to be around the bush? Why do we got to act like we ain't an alliance. If you about to leave us. It's the same thing. We're in the line. You're not. It's a good survivor strategy. But say tried to do it though. Say tried to do it. Say. And they didn't allow it. Because I also kind of felt like. Even though they're with say. I don't think they wanted say to go.
[00:50:43] Say tried to roam her way there. Now. I. She did. Say. I did. I'm on my way to my journey. Okay. I won. I won my rock, paper, scissors tournament. Okay. What do you mean that was a practice round? Right. Right. My. Two things though. I also thought the way the cards read. I thought that maybe. Each tribe could determine. Could decipher what it meant. Right. Because like. Me.
[00:51:12] I would be up there like. Let's all do it. One. Everyone. Okay. One, two, three. Then put your number out. One. Two. Three. That's a. Oh. Okay. Then I'll be like. This is zero. You got to do one through five. Yeah. You got to do one through five. I win. I won. One. Yeah. So it's a window one. That was the practice one. Okay. I thought Bryce was going to try to be like.
[00:51:41] And then just wait. And be like. No. No. I didn't. Right. So I just. I thought that might have been. Different interpretations. But I want to do it again. One more time. All right. One. Two. Three. Yeah. Y'all are. You're delaying. I saw one. I saw one. I saw one. There we go. Here's the thing. Here's the thing about this challenge is. Well. So there's a couple of people where. Here's the thing. If you. It's a tribe of five or six.
[00:52:11] No number above three can ever win. And so anyone who's throwing above three. Either doesn't want to go. Or. Yep. You didn't realize how the challenge exactly works. Which granted. It was a quick turnaround. But just numbers wise. If there's six of you. And. Say two people throw one. Two people throw two. But then if one person throws three. Then the one person wins. And obviously that. Different combinations of that. But I don't mind. If you just don't want to go. Be like. All right.
[00:52:40] Four it is. Like. I'm going to stay home and chill. But that was interesting too. I do think the strategy is usually just to throw one. Because I think everyone's going to be like. Well. Obviously someone's going to throw one. Like. I'm going to throw two or three. And then a lot of people are going to throw two or three. Shaheen threw a five. Five. Yeah. I think Cedric and like. Justin threw like a four. So. Yeah. But I don't. Again. Shaheen. Maybe it's like. He feels good. He doesn't. Like. Obviously you're not really going to win with a. He probably knows. Especially with a five. You're not going to win.
[00:53:09] I don't mind playing it safe. You know. So. But anyways. I thought that was interesting. I thought. I liked it. I thought it was a fun little game. It's funny too. Like. They laid out the rules. But theoretically. If you and your tribe wanted to talk it out. You could just be like. Oh. We all agree that Bryce. You know Bryce. You can throw one. And the rest of us will throw two. And then you get to pick. But nobody really. Thought about it like that. But I guess I like this over. And then what did you guys think about. The journey itself. With the challenge. And the steal vote. And the block vote. Is my. Is my service okay. By the way. Yeah.
[00:53:39] You're good. You're good. I like that puzzle. Now. Would you consider that a slide puzzle though? No. It's a puzzle to slide. So. No. I would. I would. I would. I would. I would. I would. Because that. That's. I would. I would. I would. He's not. That's not even a shot. Because I agree with him. No. Yeah. Yeah. And this puzzle. Actually. Someone on Reddit. Made this puzzle. Online. And so.
[00:54:09] I went and tried it. I tried. I tried this exact puzzle. I got it. Got it in three and a half minutes. So. I don't know how long the. The timer is. The sand timer is. Out there for them. But it didn't seem. It didn't seem. Too. Too difficult. Like it was. It was a pretty. Pretty straightforward puzzle. So. Yeah. I thought it was pretty cool. So if anyone wants to go try it. You can go. Find it somewhere on Reddit. It looked a little confusing to me. But. I did realize you. I think you could put numbers in from either side. Right. So I think that helped. No. No. No.
[00:54:37] You can only put it in from the right side. But you just keep sliding one out. So you just like. Constantly slide. Like if you need one out of a row. You just keep sliding that same row. Until you slide out the one you need to go to a different row. And then. How do you go about it? Because obviously once you finish one row. Then the others are kind of stuck. How do you. You just. Yeah. You just. You just do one through five. And then you work on. You make sure one through five is in the right place. And then you make sure the next row is in the right place. And then the last row will be a little bit jumbled. You pretty much like. Rearrange the last two. And like I said slide out the one that's out of order. And just put it in the other one.
[00:55:07] Until you can make it right. So yeah. But it's. You can go try it yourself. It's pretty. It's pretty straightforward. But I like that. I like the challenge. Like between this one. And the one that. That Rachel had on the barge. With the. With the balls and things. Yeah. Last season. I think those are two very unique styles of puzzles. And I really like what. What Survivor is doing with those. So yeah. And the advantages. I mean. It seems like they were random. Because they all picked the path. But a steal a vote. At this phase of the game. Much stronger than a block of vote. You could be you and one person. And you're. Mm-hmm. You have the steal a vote.
[00:55:37] You're good to go. Mm-hmm. Exactly. And. That. I was just going to say. I thought that that was interesting. Because the steal a vote. For. For Thomas. Is huge. On this tribe. Specifically. Because. You know. Star. She. If she has an idol. Now. Okay. If Star and Thomas. That's three votes right there. Like. You know what I'm saying? Like. And so. Thomas will have Bianca too. Is the thing. So. Exactly. So that's. That's four votes. So right there. They would control the first vote. So like that. That's. That's scary too.
[00:56:07] Like a steal a vote is very. Very strong. Especially in groups of. Six and five. Like. So yeah. It's. It's. It's tough. What did you think of Mary going back. And telling the tribe. That she lost her vote? So. I think that that's your only option. In a situation where there's. Five. There's five people voting. I don't think that there's anything. That Mary could have came back and said. Other than. She lost her vote. That would have been beneficial for her. Because.
[00:56:36] If she comes back and people think she has a vote. Then people might need to depend on her for a vote tonight. With five people. Which is such a. Like five is such a dangerous number to vote with. That if she's like. Yeah. I'm a number you can depend on tonight. And ends up not being. That might be. Like she might end up going home because of it. So like. It's better to just say. I don't have any agency tonight. I'm not a threat to any of you. Any of you guys technically. Let me just chill back. And when Kevin told. Told Mary. Just chill tonight. Just chill. And let me. Let me work. Let me work. Like Kevin said. Right. Like let me. Chill back and let me work.
[00:57:06] She did that. She chilled back. She didn't have anything to do. And then Kevin went to work. And went home. So it. It was really. Now. So what you're saying is. If she would have said. She had a vote. Then maybe. Kevin. Wouldn't. Be. I don't know. Yeah. Maybe he would. I don't know. Like that's the thing. Is like. If she doesn't have a vote. I don't even get why. Kevin didn't. Wasn't just cool with going with Mary. Like she doesn't have a vote. She can't play her shot in the dark. Why? Like it's the easiest vote in the world.
[00:57:35] So why do you. Are you like. Oh let me get this bright idea. To go against my alliance. That also has the idol. And like. Even if. Like let's. Like hear me out. Hear me out right. Even if that happens right. Then Cedric and Justin. Are immediately on the bottom right. Why would Cedric and Justin. Ever do that right. Why would they vote out say. And put themselves on the bottom. And things like that. Like it doesn't. It doesn't make any sense. So do you mean. Was Kevin trying to be greedy. With like getting rid of. Then keeping his situation with Mary. And working with the gentleman. And kind of like putting himself. In the power position.
[00:58:06] Yep. 100%. 100%. I know we're all over the place. But can we talk about. Justin who I call. Belinsky real quick. Uh. I just like. The way. Belinsky moves. Right. Like it's like. He like. What's up. You want to go this way. Uh. You like. I like. I really like how. People talk to him. And when I be watching. I be like. Why. Why are you going with them? And then the next person he's with.
[00:58:35] Is like. Yeah. Like no. That makes sense. Because. The way. When him and Cedric was talking. And Cedric brought up Kevin's name. And the way Belinsky. Like. He didn't put up. It's the way he doesn't put up. Any resistance. And it's the way that he feeds into. What you're saying. That's like. It hikes you up. I'm trying to tell you. Belinsky. He on my radar. And not because I'm hungry for some pizza. He is straightforward. But he's also like. Seems very adaptable. Like. I feel like he. Like. He'll just say what's on. Like. He'll find his moment.
[00:59:06] Say what he thinks. It's trustworthy. But also. If you give him an idea. He's very quick to be like. That's a good idea. And you're like. Right. Belinsky's rocking with me. It's like no pushback. Yeah. I like. So. A couple things. Taking it back to Mary. Getting back to camp. Just quick. I agree. I agree. To not share. That you. Or to say that you don't have a vote. I actually think. It's a little bit. Meta. But I think you. Give a really bad story.
[00:59:35] As to why you don't have a vote. In her position. So that people might be like. Yo. She's lying. Like she's got something. And that might be like. Putting the sus off of you. And people might be like. Oh. She might have an idol. An advantage. In reality. You're telling the truth. So ultimately. People are going to be like. Oh. She was telling the truth. But. I think it's better. If you're so earnestly. Like I don't have a vote. Like I'm done. Like. And everyone's like. Oh. Say less. Like we can. But yeah. I mean. I like getting into this Kevin vote. I actually. So.
[01:00:05] I think in principle. Strategically. It's not actually a bad. Mindset to have. Ironically. Rome. It reminds me a lot of when. Keyshawn tried to take you out. Is that. For Keyshawn's game. Especially in this. In this tribe. Specifically. That's losing a lot. Like. In this Vula tribe. They're going to lose more. And so you've got to sort of. Set the dominoes up to fall. So that way. You can be one of those last. Two or three people. But. Similar to when Keyshawn did it. If.
[01:00:34] If Mary has no vote. And say has an idol. And your entire plan revolves around. Not only say not playing her idol. But also. Cedric coming with you. Justin coming with you. Then you essentially are thinking like. Okay. Everybody is with me. But. Like everybody's with me. More than they're with. They're with say. And it's just such a complicated plan. That hinges on a lot of different relationships. Coming. Your way. That it's just like. It's the right idea. But in this moment. It's doing too much.
[01:01:04] And I think that's where Kevin really shook himself up. I agree. Yeah. Yeah. Like he had the right idea. And maybe if Mary had a vote. And say didn't have an idol. Then you'd just be like. Yo Justin. Like. Could we flip this? Oh. Yeah. But. To be like. Alright. I need everybody who has a vote. Other than say. To vote her out. And her not to play her idol. And so. Like. Just to. Just to talk about it. Because you said it reminds you of. Of my season situation. So. I thought that. It definitely did. Like Mary is essentially.
[01:01:33] In the Saul position. Say was in my position. You know. Kevin was in Keyshawn's position. Cedric was in Genevieve's position. Teenie was in Justin's position. Right. Like. So it's like. Everyone. Was pretty much. Kind of in the same situation. Um. And. It was one of those things. Where. With me. I tried to get Saul. To give up his shot in the dark. Because he could play a shot in the dark. He had a vote. Right. This is a situation. Where the. The Saul in this situation. Mary. She doesn't have a vote.
[01:02:02] She can't play her shot in the dark. So it's like. There wasn't even a need. To do anything extra. Like there was no need to do. That you knew she couldn't vote. She couldn't save herself. Like she was gonna. She was gonna be out of there. And. Um. Kevin decided to. To go for the person. That he thought was more. Quote unquote dangerous. Um. Which. I mean. If someone's putting. If. If you feel like someone's that dangerous early on. Are they really about to win? So it's like. Like. They'll get themselves out. You know what I'm saying? So it's like. That's. That's how he should be thinking. He shouldn't be thinking like.
[01:02:32] Yeah. This person's dangerous at 17. Let me get him out now. Like. Yeah. Let him get themselves out. I do see him being like. Okay. If we vote out Mary. And we go back to tribal. And say. And Cedric are together. And have an idol. And Justin might be with them too. That's. A bad position to be in. But obviously. If Cedric would say. At that point. Then he's probably would say. At this point. And then you're just trying to do too much. I mean. That's really like. The thing too is. I think Kevin was really unlucky. Just generally. Like being on this tribe. Where he's probably the best challenge asset.
[01:03:02] Against some other tribes. That are completely loaded. Like. You go to tribe. Three or four times. Before the merge. You're gonna lose some decent players. Like. So I don't really think. Like. Kevin was. Is it unlucky though? Like. Is it. Is it unlucky? Or did like. Kevin try to strike. Too soon? It's both. I mean. I don't think it was. The best strategic move. But I just think the fact of the matter is. Even if they vote out Mary. Kevin's probably next. And they probably do go back to tribal. So. Maybe then Kevin's the third boot. Instead of the second boot.
[01:03:32] But you kind of have to play. To like. Extend your longevity in the game. Which is why I don't mind Kevin. Sort of shooting a shot. But obviously. It would take everything to go 100% perfect. That's really difficult to pull off. So I think you just reign it back. Hope for a win. Hope for a swap. But. Obviously like. What I mean by it being unlucky. Is like. Say you switch. Kevin and Kyle. Then. This Vula tribe. Still probably goes to tribal a lot. And then you're just lucky. That you were on the right tribe. Which I think is like. A really underrated thing. About. And then obviously.
[01:04:02] I think for this tribe. Of course. Kevin is a challenge asset. Generally. I mean. Maybe not with his bum. Shoulder right now. But. It's sort of. I feel like they've accepted. That they're such a mess. That. Even if they have Kevin. It doesn't really matter. So you got to stick with your. You got to find your person. And just try to ride to that final two. Of the tribe. And just do what you got to do. To get there. Who is the weakest member. Like. I guess physically. We're talking physically. Who is the weakest member. On that tribe. I mean. Mary. But Cedric also. Had a bad performance. This challenge too. Like. Yeah.
[01:04:32] I'd say. I'd say Cedric. Like. Even on the marooning challenge. When he was covered in mud. Like. He couldn't get up that wall. Or whatever. Yeah. I'd probably say. I'd probably say Cedric. Mary. Mary kind of smoked the water part. Part of the challenge. And she even said like. This is why. One of the reasons I applied. Was for these water challenges. So. Yeah. And she was. She was almost keeping up. With Shaheen and David. You know what I'm saying. So. Yeah. If you. I do like. You know. You have a big physical challenge. Mary's probably the smallest person out there. So. Not that she's not athletic. But like. That's. That's.
[01:05:02] I don't want to harp on it too much. Because we said it last episode. I really. Would like to see what. The tribe division. Discussion looked like. Because this. Division just doesn't really make any sense to me. Like. Like. Stephanie. Say. Um. Bianca. Basketball player. A hockey player. Cedric. Kevin and Justin. Don't stack up against. David. Kyle and Mitch. I mean. Mitch was looking like. Prime Kobe Bryant. In that challenge. Like.
[01:05:31] Um. So I don't. I don't know. And then even. I think. Kevin was like. Or maybe Justin's. I think Kevin. Looking at him standing next to Jeff. When his torch got snuffed. Just not that tall. Kevin must be like. Five. Eight. Like he was almost. A good or bad day. Um. But yeah. No. It's just. It's just really. Like this tribe. Was sort of best in for failure. But when that's the case. You better just find your duo. And ride with them. And just try to get to that. I don't know. It's hard. That's.
[01:06:01] So real quick. Can we talk about the vote? Because tribal. I thought was extremely interesting. Um. Say was extremely open to everyone. About the vote. About it's going to be Mary. Um. Things like that. And I thought it was interesting. Jeff asked a question. He said. What happens if you guys are both here? And Mary essentially said. If we're both still here. After the vote. We can't work together. Because we can't trust each other. And we need to eliminate each other. And say's face was like. Oh. Word. And. I thought it was very interesting. Because also. Um.
[01:06:31] Say when she played her idol. She said she didn't feel confident in the vote. I thought that was really interesting. Because in my head. I thought say would be confident in the vote. Um. Knowing where things are going. Um. Um. But at the same time. You got to think. Say. Thought that Justin and Cedric. Were going to vote for Mary that night. Because that's what they said. And also. Justin and Cedric. Thought say. Was going to be voting for Mary. Because that's who they told her to vote for. But little did each other know. Both parties. Voted for Kevin. So. I thought it was crazy. Coming into the.
[01:07:00] Into the vote. The plan was. Tell the other person to vote for Mary. And then both parties. Ended up voting for Kevin instead. I thought that was. That was incredible. Like. Say did it to teach Kevin a lesson. And. They did it because they had a talk. And figured out that Kevin was a bigger threat. So. I felt like that was too. I felt like we just did. They edited that way. They left a lot. Uh. For us not to see. Because I felt like that was too. Co-wee-deen. Was this.
[01:07:29] I think voting Kevin was the right move. You know. Assuming Cedric and Say are the. Powerful duo here. Then I think leaving. Seeing Mary and Justin. It's like. They're not gonna. Tie it up against you. So they're in a great spot. Whereas you leave Kevin with a Justin. I mean again. I don't think Kevin and Justin. Are gonna take a stand. And go to two to two. But. Um. It's I always like. If you're in that. Like that power position. Just leave people in. That are not gonna. Get together. And it's just. The game's gonna flow through you.
[01:07:59] Would it. Would it have made sense for. I guess. A Justin. To have tried to swing it. Onto. Onto Mary though. Or. Um. What about his position. I mean. Do you think he's just. The three in that group. And he's kind of happy with it. And just hoping they don't. I think that Cedric. Has the most influence. In this. In this game. Cedric went to Say. And said. Can you. What'd he say. Like can you. Keep your emotions in check. Or something like that. Like. And then she was like. Yeah. And he told her. Like look. Look we're gonna be putting votes on you tonight.
[01:08:29] But we were. And she. And she was able to say. Okay. All right. Who was it by the way. It was Kevin. Okay. Good to know. Noted. Got it. Noted. Noted for later. I will be right his name down. Yep. Yeah. I thought that was. That was pretty funny. I thought. Do you think that Justin. Because Justin. I feel like was the one that changed Cedric's mind. Into voting for Kevin. But would it have been better for Justin. To vote for Mary. Or what do you guys. No. Because. Didn't we just say. We need to. Like. If we're a tribe. That is more than likely. Going to be going again.
[01:08:58] We need to line the dominoes up. And I really think. Belinsky. Is peeping that. If Kevin. Is trying to get. Say out. Like. Who's to say. It won't be me next. And so. I think it is brilliant. For Belinsky. To be like. Let's get Kevin. And then boom. If we go again. Boom. It's Mary. And so like. I think that's the most. I think he did the most logical thing. For his game. I will. I will. I don't. Necessarily disagree. I will counter that argument. And I will say. That. I think. Belinsky played really well. This episode.
[01:09:28] I think. In his mind. If I'm him. I think that I'm. The number three. In this tribe. Whoever goes home. Right. It seems like Cedric. And Sarah. Really tight. Like Cedric. Just told. Say this plan. So. I'm thinking. Okay. Whether it's Mary. Or Kevin. It'll probably. Be the other one next. And obviously. Kevin's not the most trustworthy. But like. He did come to you. With some information. I think. Maybe just the argument. For Justin. To vote for Mary. Is like. If I'm going out. You know. If I'm going to be the.
[01:09:58] If I'm going to be the three. In this. My. I do not want to get. To a place. Where I'm going to tribal. With that three. And so. Maybe just keep Kevin. To give you a better shot. In the challenges. With your four. I mean. They might be. But. But. He still has that three. Because he still has Mary. And now it could be. Mary. Him. But. Cedric. But with Mary. Don't you think that. There's a higher chance. They lose the next challenge. And then that obviously. Means there's a more likely chance. They go to tribal. Again. In which case. It would be him.
[01:10:26] You heard Cedric's reaction. To when Justin said. Yeah. But getting rid of Kevin. I'm a little bit worried. About the challenges. Cedric said. Challenges. Challenges. We're talking about challenges. They know they ain't winning. Well yeah. Cedric and Cedric. And Cedric and Cedric shouldn't care. Because they know. They might not. They're probably not going to win any. But I'm just thinking. If I'm Justin. Well. They said that. They know they're not going to win any. Like. So. But if I'm Justin. And I know we're not going to win any. And we might go to four tribals.
[01:10:55] And I'm going to be the person out. At that fourth tribal. Then to me. It makes sense. That you would. Try to keep Kevin. Just me. Having Kevin. You're more likely to win. Than having Mary. I think is a reasonable. I mean. Hey. Hey. I wouldn't. I wouldn't make that assumption. I'm not. If you're in the game. I would. I would feel like. I'm not saying. It depends on the challenge. There's other factors. Mary's no slouch. But Kevin's pretty athletic. Like. I would think. We're better off with Kevin. And so.
[01:11:24] With a lump shoulder. He did die. The die was terrible. The die was terrible. Terrible. I don't know. I mean look. We might. We might see them go to four tribals. Either way. In which case. I think. Justin would be the one out. Fourth. After Mary goes next. If that's the case. But. But again. I think Justin played his cards fine. Because also. I don't mind. Look. If this is the hand you're dealt. And you think you're going to go to a bunch of tribals. You've got to just try to get down to that. That three. And maybe win a challenge.
[01:11:54] And then you're good. And then you're a free agent. Like what else can you do? Like. If Justin tried to do what Kevin was doing. We see what happens. Yeah. Very small point. That I just wanted to like. Way. Way. A little bit. But I think Justin. Given his situation. Did a great job. Can we give. Uncle said. A round of applause for. I like the way he handled. Coming back. From the challenge. After he kind of knew he messed up. And he kind of like. This is where.
[01:12:24] Why I like having older players. Like a Cedric. Like. I like when you have these like. I don't. I don't want to use the term respectable. But like when you have like this. This older guy. You know what like. He gives right. He's like a. A little wiser. Right. Like you know. You can listen. I like how he's like. Come here young people. Come come sit down. Listen to me. What happened today. We should not. We should all be upset. We lost as a team.
[01:12:53] But when we gonna win. We're gonna win as a team. I don't know why I'm crying y'all. Because I love y'all. I want to be here. Like you know. And then it's just like. And then in the midst. Of everybody crying. He's like. But listen up everybody. Uncle said he's gonna take this one. I'm gonna take full responsibility. And listen. I want everybody to come and talk to me. You gonna have one on ones. And we gonna figure this out. Like. Do y'all see what he did there?
[01:13:22] Like I was like. Said. You are not fooling anybody. I loved how he used. I loved how he used. His age and wisdom. To kind of like. Really take the heat off of him. And I don't feel like. I see enough people talking about that. It's like he owned up to it. And then also said. Hey. I'm gonna be following. I'll take it with y'all. But like. Right. I'm gonna be coming to talk to every one of y'all. It was so smooth how he did it.
[01:13:53] Hey Mary. You busy? Come talk to me. Like it's like. Hello. He's doing it right in front of y'all. Hey Mary. Say gotta go girl. Okay. Like. But I just. I like when you see stuff like that. That it kind of goes over people's head. But it's like. That was a great deflection. And it's like. You can say anything to people. It's just how you say it. Yeah. Cause like. Yeah. Someone else could have been like.
[01:14:23] Yo man. My bad. Yeah. I lost the challenge. Now I gotta talk to you real quick. And then I'm gonna walk with you to the water real quick. And we'll. Nah. But he was just like. But you know. We'll have conversations. The water is new. Right. Well. We're gonna figure it out together. We're unity. Okay. Oh man. In Rome. It doesn't matter your height. Okay.
[01:14:53] You are. You are tall. In world. Wendell. You didn't. You didn't go far. And when is that war. But the war. Is in the winter. Hey Jack. When that floor was lava. The lava wasn't floor. I'm gonna talk individually. To each of y'all. And we gonna figure this out together. Okay. And then Justin. Uncle Ceddy.
[01:15:23] And then Justin go. Hit. Hit. Hit Cedric with the. So. So Bryce. You know what I'm saying. You was. You was on a great season. But. But you didn't have a great season though. On it. You know what I'm saying. Like. Okay. Justin. Worry about your pizza crust. Okay. The legendary status. Is already legendary.
[01:15:52] Now come on and talk to Uncle Ceddy. See what we can figure out today. Hey. We can talk about my pizzas all day. But you know what I'm saying. Those x-rays that you gotta look at. When you get back home. You know what I'm saying. Every day at work. That's a little bit tough. Ain't it? That's. The x-rays. Provided. Lineage. For the family. For three generations. Okay. Like. All right. All right. So. Can we talk real quick about Siva?
[01:16:22] Because we didn't talk about the Siva Idol situation at all yet. And we. We're. We're. You know. A few minutes into this podcast. I think we should. We should talk about this. So. The Siva 4. They realized. Let's start looking for a show. For the Idol. Right? They're like. Okay. It's time. Time to start looking. Right? Kyle finds it with David. Kyle shares it then with Camilla. And then Camilla. Having six letters. Was able to figure it out. And I thought it was interesting. That she got the first two letters. From the other cryptograms. She got the listen. She got the. The.
[01:16:52] The. The. Whatever. And the last one was in list. And she was able to. To do it. By writing it on her leg. And figure it out. And. And she opened it. And now Kyle. Kyle has an Idol. So. Now it's like. Okay. The SIVA 4. Has an Idol. In their possession. In the Alliance's possession. That's what you want. As far as I'm aware. Somehow. Some way. Who. What's his name? Mitch. And Charity. Don't know. Somehow. At all. I guess. At least from what we've seen. Like. They saw the black string. And things like that.
[01:17:22] But they didn't see. The Idol yet. As far as we know. They don't know about it. So. When it comes to this tribe. I feel like the dynamics. Are pretty straightforward. But also. You know. I don't know man. I feel like they're. They're just the two on the bottom. I don't know. Like. I feel like this is a pretty. Straightforward tribe. So. Now. I love David. The one thing that. Made me mad. With David. This episode was. When they're like. He's like. I like Mitch. But I just can't trust him. But then I'm like.
[01:17:51] But Mitch. Isn't in. Your alliance. You don't talk with Mitch. Why would you then trust him? And then it's like. You're like. And I can't trust him in charity. But it's like. That y'all have made this alliance. Yeah. Like. And it's. It's obviously. It's clear to them too. So. I don't know. Sometimes I hate when. And not necessarily David. Or. Maybe. Somebody can explain this to me. Or just the psychology of it. Is where like. When the alliance is running the tribe. And obviously. The two people on the bottom. I hate when then.
[01:18:21] The tribe's like. We can't trust them. Well. Why do you think. You can't trust them? Yeah. Y'all have made this problem. Well. I think especially with this alliance. It's sort of form. Like. Charity said like one thing. And they all came together. Like. We don't want to deal with this game. And let's just stick together. And so. It literally formed out of. A desire to not really strategize. And then. So they see Mitch and Charity. Charity's like. Mitch. I'm so proud of you. For overcoming your obstacles. And David and Nicole are like. Nah.
[01:18:51] We can't have that. Too close to gameplay. Too close. Yeah. No. I mean. Right. But I think the psychology is like. Once you have your group. Whether it's in Survivor. In society. It's very easy to. Want to. You know. Villainize. The outsiders. And so. I mean. In Survivor. I hate to say it. Like. It's sort of. What you kind of have to. Like. To make sure. Your alliance is solid. You kind of have to. Separate those other people. Is it right?
[01:19:21] Probably not. But of course. If he's running around. Being like. You know what. My alliance. We should trust. Charity and Mitch. I actually like those guys a lot. And then everyone be like. Well. What's. I thought we had something good going. So. I think that's the psychology of it. I mean. Sometimes it's a little tough to watch. Because like you said. Like Mitch and Charity. They're. Seem really nice. Like. They seem really fun. And then someone. People I'd want to work with. But it's just like. The way that the. The cards got dealt. And then. My last thing.
[01:19:51] Is. Wouldn't we think. In this new era. Right. That. When we see. A tribe like this. Who is pretty strong. They're well. Like. My mind. Wonders. It actually. Is easier. For. Someone in this alliance. To flip. And having like. The swing vote. Of a charity. And a Mitch. Right. Like. What David is thinking. Is right. But I'm thinking like. I think what he should be thinking. Is. Actually.
[01:20:20] Let me just plant some seeds. With these people. In the event that like. Something in this four goes awry. I'd rather be the first. To these two. Than me being like. We like. You know what I'm saying. Like it's like. Kind of. Seeing that issue. It's a fine line though. You don't want to be too. And well. And Mitch. With this block of vote. Now it's just going to take one. If they can flip one. Then they. They can get the majority. But. I know what you mean. You want to keep. Open communication. But also. You don't want to be the one. That's playing both sides. And have your alliance. Turn on.
[01:20:51] That's true. What. What's your own thing? I'm just thinking like. That block of vote. Makes it where like. You need. You need. Two other people. With you to vote. And then. The other three people. Are all going to be able to vote. Except so you block one's vote. Right. And so then it's three on two. So. You need to be able to. To fully trust those two people. They need to also fully trust. In terms to. Shot in the dark. I don't know if you block someone's vote. If a blocked vote. Is the same as not having a vote.
[01:21:21] I don't know if like. A blocked vote. You can't play your shot in the dark. If someone blocks your vote. I'm assuming that that's how it works. But we don't know for a fact. So. Whoever Mitch. Blocks their vote on. They might end up being the target. Because they can't play their shot in the dark. And. I think. I don't know. I think that. That. I don't know. A block of vote is such an interesting. An interesting one. Because it's not as straightforward. As steal a vote. You know. Steal a vote. You know. They can't play their shot in the dark. Now you get two votes. Like. You know what I'm saying. Like. It's. It's. It's a lot. A lot more lethal. To have a steal a vote. Than a block of vote.
[01:21:51] And. Because. The block of vote. Right. You really don't know how. Actually it works. Until you play it. That. Makes it more lethal. Or does that make it more like. Less. Like people aren't as scared. It's a hot take. If you go on a journey. It's. And you get something early. In the game. Especially. If your tribe's still at six. You tell every single person. About your advantage. That you get on the journey. Like that's. It's a hot take.
[01:22:21] But like. I said it. Because it's just. Worked so many times. In the new era. Like we saw. A classic example. Was Drew. With. In 45. Drew went on the journey. I forgot what advantage. He got. But he got an. Got an advantage. He came back. And it made everyone trust him. Like everyone felt like. They could trust Drew. And wanted to work with him. Instead of. Oh I found out about you. Having an advantage from someone else. Now I want to go after you. Because you dangerous. Like. You know what I'm saying. So it's like. It definitely. In my opinion. Was a good move on Mitch. To be open. That I have a block of vote. Because now. At the first tribal. People can assume.
[01:22:51] He's going to be using that block of vote. Right. So it's like. I think a lot more people. Are probably going to be. Wanting to work with Mitch. Than not work with Mitch. When it comes to the vote. If they ever have to go. That's a good point. Yeah. And. There's so much game. And you sort of. Present like. Oh well I have this asset. It could be. Used for our group. But if you try to go against me. In these small numbers. It's just going to be a little bit harder. So it might. Yeah. I don't mind that. Yep. Yeah. But overall.
[01:23:21] I think. I think this was a great. Great episode. I don't know if you guys saw. The secret scenes. At all. Were you able to. Okay. One of them. One of them was David. He. With the fishing gear. Because you know. The both tribes. That want immunity. They want fishing gear. And. You know. David. David went out there. And tried to. Try to. Try to do some spear fishing. You know what I'm saying. He. How did it work out. Well he wasn't able to catch any. Unfortunately. You know. I was rooting for him. You know what I'm saying. Man. And somebody that. Caught 13 fish. I was out there.
[01:23:51] You know what I'm saying. I was rooting for him. To get a couple. But you know what I'm saying. He wasn't able to. But that's the thing. Is that they. He's got fire. So he's got a lot of days. To try. So it's like. I'm sure that he's going to be able. To catch some fish. At some point. What advice. Could you give him Rome? What advice. From the technique. That you saw. What could you get. Let David know. A little song. Listen. Listen. All right. Like. Like what I learned. Is like. With your index finger. Like you pretty much point. At the fish. That you want. You line it up. You know. You line the Hawaiian sling up. And you just kind of point.
[01:24:21] At the fish. You let it go. And you know what I'm saying. Sometimes. Sometimes you catch something. You know what I'm saying. That is. Interesting to know. Well. David. Hope you're listening. Was that you being a fish. For David to. Got you. Okay. David. I hope you're listening. I mean.
[01:24:50] David's only seen one season of Survivor. But I bet. He listens to the pod. And I'm. I. I don't care what season he's seen. I. I know he don't know who I am. Oh. Do you want to talk about that? Do we want to talk about that? He said. David said. David last night. He said. He said. Oh. Oh. You play Survivor before. Talking to Bryce. And he was like. And David said. Oh my bad. My bad. I apologize. I've only seen like the new era seasons. And I only saw Kagey on as well.
[01:25:20] Oh yeah. Everybody. Everybody said. David. Bryce was on Kagey on. Bryce. Bryce just had to turn around. He just had to put his head down. I think David was rooting for Garrett probably. And then he just stopped watching. Someone's only seen eight seasons of Survivor.
[01:25:48] And they get one of the people that they just watch right in front of their face. It is quite all right. It is something that I would expect from somebody that had two nipples. But because he has four, he gets a pass. He gets a pass. But listen, Rome, I have to say before we go, you've been absolutely fantastic.
[01:26:14] Like it is truly, dare I say, because Rome, you know, you see what you see on TV. And in person, you know, it's hard to find you. I look left. I look right. I look. But when I looked down, I found you. And I am pretty sure in that room of yours, that chair is not down.
[01:26:43] I know that chair is all the way up. And I am happy. Get up a little higher. Come on, man. Get up a little higher. Come on. Don't do that. Don't do that. You know what I'm saying? Come on.
