Mike and Liana are joined by Brandon Donlon and Brando Meyer for Episode 5![00:00:00] [SPEAKER_06]: Mike and the Anna, yeah, they're playing some games. You better pray to your momma that they're not super lame. And if that all sounds cool I can tell you the name. Its the R-H-A-P-B-M-B.
[00:00:16] [SPEAKER_06]: Mike and the Anna, yeah, they're playing some games. You better pray to your momma that they're not super lame. All sounds cool I can tell you the name. It's the R-H-A-P-B-M-B.
[00:00:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Hi, everybody, and welcome back to the RHAP BNB for week five of Survivor 47.
[00:00:41] [SPEAKER_01]: My name is Mike Bloom, but today in the spirit of the Survivor Social Hour,
[00:00:46] [SPEAKER_01]: which I'll say real ones know that the RHAP BNB was the true OG Survivor Social Hour, right, Leona Boris?
[00:00:52] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah, 100%. Come on. When we have more condiments, OK?
[00:00:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, exactly. We may not have cornhole, but we have corny jokes.
[00:01:02] [SPEAKER_01]: And we have holes. Peter Harkey once told us that.
[00:01:05] [SPEAKER_01]: So here we are. But we decided to take that B and double it, baby,
[00:01:11] [SPEAKER_01]: because we've got a B and B and B and B happening in this podcast.
[00:01:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Let me welcome in these two fine gentlemen as we wrap up the pre-merge of Survivor 47.
[00:01:21] [SPEAKER_01]: These are two standout guys from the pre-merge of Survivor 45.
[00:01:25] [SPEAKER_01]: I call them the brand winners. First off, it's Brandon Donlan.
[00:01:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Brandon, how are you? Oh, my God. What an intro.
[00:01:34] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm great. You know, I've been on a lot of podcasts this week.
[00:01:37] [SPEAKER_04]: I was at the Rob is a Podcast live show.
[00:01:40] [SPEAKER_04]: People think it's because I'm just, you know, so inspired by Annika.
[00:01:42] [SPEAKER_04]: I want to talk about her game. It's not. I got a new haircut.
[00:01:45] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm doing every avenue possible to show people that I got one.
[00:01:48] [SPEAKER_04]: And I'm thrilled to be here now.
[00:01:50] [SPEAKER_04]: I should be on YX Lost in about an hour and a half.
[00:01:53] [SPEAKER_04]: You can check that out as well.
[00:01:54] [SPEAKER_01]: All right. Brandon is making the talk show circuit.
[00:01:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Basically, a lot of people like to promote things.
[00:01:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Not like come on to just be like, here's my new look.
[00:02:01] [SPEAKER_01]: I just want to show it off on as many talk shows as possible.
[00:02:04] [SPEAKER_01]: But he is not alone.
[00:02:06] [SPEAKER_01]: Making his B&B debut is Brando.
[00:02:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Brando Meyer.
[00:02:10] [SPEAKER_02]: Hello. Hello.
[00:02:11] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm also here actually to promote Brandon Donlan's new haircut.
[00:02:15] [SPEAKER_02]: It looks fantastic.
[00:02:16] [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, look at the guy.
[00:02:17] [SPEAKER_02]: He looks beautiful.
[00:02:18] [SPEAKER_02]: And, you know, who would want to miss a fifth boot episode?
[00:02:21] [SPEAKER_02]: So I'm very, very happy to be here.
[00:02:23] [SPEAKER_00]: Mm hmm.
[00:02:23] [SPEAKER_00]: This is the solid PR team we need.
[00:02:26] [SPEAKER_00]: Don't worry, Brandon.
[00:02:26] [SPEAKER_00]: We're going to get your hair out there.
[00:02:28] [SPEAKER_00]: OK, but there we go.
[00:02:29] [SPEAKER_01]: Branding for these two men.
[00:02:32] [SPEAKER_01]: Brando, I mean, obviously you got to commemorate another fifth boot here.
[00:02:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Were you triggered a little bit by the whole like not a swap mechanism,
[00:02:41] [SPEAKER_01]: considering the weird things that happened with yours last season or two years ago?
[00:02:46] [SPEAKER_02]: So being the only swap in the new era is a little triggering for sure to see what went down.
[00:02:52] [SPEAKER_02]: But I really liked the twist this week.
[00:02:55] [SPEAKER_02]: So as much as it is a little bit of a pain, I am very happy to see that they're going in a new direction.
[00:03:01] [SPEAKER_02]: I thought it was really cool.
[00:03:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:03:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, this was one of the big takeaways was the brand new twist never before seen on Survivor.
[00:03:08] [SPEAKER_01]: And it turns out to be a bit of a mixer, a bit of like a soft mergatory, perhaps,
[00:03:14] [SPEAKER_01]: and maybe some details on what comes next, perhaps because of the event that we had.
[00:03:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Of course, three of us got the chance to watch this in a big theater as well,
[00:03:24] [SPEAKER_01]: which I think really amped up the energy.
[00:03:26] [SPEAKER_01]: So, Brando, I'm glad to hear that, like separate of that,
[00:03:28] [SPEAKER_01]: because sometimes in the room, like even if things don't fly necessarily for people on the couch,
[00:03:33] [SPEAKER_01]: in the room, you just get infused with the energy.
[00:03:35] [SPEAKER_01]: But I'm glad to hear you were like in the social hour.
[00:03:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Liana, what about you?
[00:03:38] [SPEAKER_00]: Well, I think it's interesting because I was under the assumption that,
[00:03:43] [SPEAKER_00]: well, we're going to get to earn the merge next week.
[00:03:45] [SPEAKER_00]: So this felt like a very bizarre thing to do.
[00:03:48] [SPEAKER_00]: Although from what we've seen from some of the previews,
[00:03:51] [SPEAKER_00]: that might not be the case where actually we are going into the merge, I think.
[00:03:57] [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know, Mike, you might not have a better sense.
[00:03:59] [SPEAKER_00]: But I love the fact that this twist gave us some semblance of what the social interactions
[00:04:04] [SPEAKER_00]: might look like once we do merge.
[00:04:06] [SPEAKER_00]: And if we're not going to have that in another capacity, then I'm happy that we got it here.
[00:04:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:04:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Brandon, what do you think about implementing this?
[00:04:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Is this something they should move forward with?
[00:04:16] [SPEAKER_01]: In lieu maybe of the like specific facet of mergatory of,
[00:04:21] [SPEAKER_01]: okay, half of you are going to be immune and go off for a merge fees.
[00:04:23] [SPEAKER_04]: Well, regarding the Survivor Social Hour,
[00:04:26] [SPEAKER_04]: I think back to like Survivor Guatemala where Danny had a birthday party,
[00:04:29] [SPEAKER_04]: you know, a little bit before the merge.
[00:04:31] [SPEAKER_04]: And they just got the two tribes together to hang out.
[00:04:33] [SPEAKER_04]: There was no challenge component.
[00:04:35] [SPEAKER_04]: It was just a weird random thing that Survivor hadn't done before,
[00:04:38] [SPEAKER_04]: I think since either.
[00:04:39] [SPEAKER_04]: I'd rather see that than have six go and have six not go.
[00:04:42] [SPEAKER_04]: Just because like, even if we're not merging right now,
[00:04:44] [SPEAKER_04]: the dynamics that can happen to just a couple hours together.
[00:04:48] [SPEAKER_04]: And then you have to go into the tribal cycle again for one, two more rounds.
[00:04:51] [SPEAKER_04]: I think that lends itself to more interesting play than just having the six and six.
[00:04:55] [SPEAKER_04]: Because whatever the mechanism is with six and six, we have seen it before.
[00:04:59] [SPEAKER_04]: So I like that.
[00:04:59] [SPEAKER_04]: Or seven and seven rather, I guess, with Anika's position.
[00:05:02] [SPEAKER_04]: But I like a new thing.
[00:05:04] [SPEAKER_04]: And this was a new thing that was super fun.
[00:05:05] [SPEAKER_04]: But I think there's further optimization on a new thing that we just,
[00:05:09] [SPEAKER_04]: on the old thing that can make it a little bit more, a little bit more fun.
[00:05:12] [SPEAKER_00]: I think there is something weird about the idea that you can go
[00:05:15] [SPEAKER_00]: and sort of start your merge journey,
[00:05:17] [SPEAKER_00]: but then you still have to go back to your original tribe.
[00:05:20] [SPEAKER_00]: And we saw this pay off with Tiana and Gabe,
[00:05:23] [SPEAKER_00]: where Tiana starts to do, you know, the thing you do in merge,
[00:05:26] [SPEAKER_00]: where you're willing to give up a member of your tribe to show that,
[00:05:29] [SPEAKER_00]: hey, I want to move forward and work with other people.
[00:05:31] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm not just, you know, too strong.
[00:05:33] [SPEAKER_00]: But then you have to go back to just Gabe.
[00:05:36] [SPEAKER_00]: And then you have to potentially go to tribal council.
[00:05:37] [SPEAKER_00]: Now, ultimately, I didn't see it happen,
[00:05:39] [SPEAKER_00]: but that could be a huge detriment to your game.
[00:05:42] [SPEAKER_00]: So it's almost presented as, hey, here's an opportunity to forge bonds,
[00:05:46] [SPEAKER_00]: but don't screw it up.
[00:05:47] [SPEAKER_00]: Because if you do end up going back to tribal council,
[00:05:49] [SPEAKER_00]: this could really mess with your game.
[00:05:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:05:52] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, you could even argue, at least Anika did to me,
[00:05:54] [SPEAKER_01]: that this was something that also potentially led to her blind side
[00:05:58] [SPEAKER_01]: is because like when they do a little bit of like the catch ups
[00:06:02] [SPEAKER_01]: and they're like, oh, yeah, Sam, you and Sierra are a thing, right?
[00:06:04] [SPEAKER_01]: It's like, wow.
[00:06:05] [SPEAKER_01]: What did Anika say about us at the journey?
[00:06:08] [SPEAKER_01]: And even though at least from our perspective,
[00:06:10] [SPEAKER_01]: it was more so that they were presenting the information rather than her.
[00:06:14] [SPEAKER_01]: I could certainly see them take it as a sign of like, oh,
[00:06:16] [SPEAKER_01]: if she did not go to bat to deny any of these allegations that we were close,
[00:06:21] [SPEAKER_01]: then that means that maybe she's not looking out for us.
[00:06:26] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[00:06:28] [SPEAKER_04]: Absolutely.
[00:06:28] [SPEAKER_04]: I do think that, you know, if you do have,
[00:06:30] [SPEAKER_04]: I think back to also not to just keep referencing old seasons,
[00:06:33] [SPEAKER_04]: but I think to like Thailand also,
[00:06:34] [SPEAKER_04]: where they pair off one person from each tribe during the fake merge,
[00:06:38] [SPEAKER_04]: where they think they're getting insight from each other.
[00:06:40] [SPEAKER_04]: If you have more people here and you're in smaller groups,
[00:06:42] [SPEAKER_04]: it does lend itself well for maybe a position that would have saved Anika also.
[00:06:46] [SPEAKER_04]: If Anika is in one group, you know,
[00:06:48] [SPEAKER_04]: you know, outing Sam and Sierra for their thing,
[00:06:50] [SPEAKER_04]: but in every other group, everybody's keeping it quiet.
[00:06:52] [SPEAKER_04]: I mean, granted, that doesn't work well for Anika,
[00:06:54] [SPEAKER_04]: but or vice versa, everybody's keeping it very loud.
[00:06:57] [SPEAKER_04]: And Anika is the one keeping it quiet.
[00:06:58] [SPEAKER_04]: You see it.
[00:06:59] [SPEAKER_04]: You see a couple of different variations.
[00:07:01] [SPEAKER_04]: So I think either way, it was super fun.
[00:07:03] [SPEAKER_04]: I do regarding the survivor social hour.
[00:07:05] [SPEAKER_04]: I do think, you know,
[00:07:06] [SPEAKER_04]: having to like win and then go get your dry hot dog and then play another
[00:07:10] [SPEAKER_04]: challenge via cornhole.
[00:07:12] [SPEAKER_04]: The last thing that I would want if I want to reward challenge is another
[00:07:15] [SPEAKER_04]: game that I have to not just sit around and eat.
[00:07:17] [SPEAKER_04]: But Hey, they liked it.
[00:07:19] [SPEAKER_04]: They seem to really take the cornhole.
[00:07:20] [SPEAKER_04]: I love cornhole at a brewery at a restaurant.
[00:07:23] [SPEAKER_04]: I don't need it when I won something to like,
[00:07:26] [SPEAKER_04]: I just did the challenge.
[00:07:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Come on.
[00:07:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[00:07:27] [SPEAKER_01]: That's the thing.
[00:07:28] [SPEAKER_01]: It's like, Hey,
[00:07:28] [SPEAKER_01]: I need calories in my body and I don't want to expend them until the next
[00:07:32] [SPEAKER_01]: time that I have to don't make me even get up and walk and throw these
[00:07:36] [SPEAKER_01]: beanbags around.
[00:07:38] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean,
[00:07:38] [SPEAKER_01]: I kudos to them for committing like the art direction on the banner.
[00:07:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Hmm.
[00:07:44] [SPEAKER_01]: Say magnifique.
[00:07:45] [SPEAKER_04]: I feel like I'm a Myrtle beach.
[00:07:46] [SPEAKER_04]: It's really giving,
[00:07:47] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:07:47] [SPEAKER_04]: it's giving the Myrtle beach motif,
[00:07:49] [SPEAKER_04]: which is,
[00:07:50] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:07:50] [SPEAKER_04]: when you're on survivor in Fiji,
[00:07:51] [SPEAKER_04]: the only place you want to be is Myrtle beach.
[00:07:54] [SPEAKER_04]: You want to close your eyes and just transport yourself back to that nice
[00:07:56] [SPEAKER_04]: place.
[00:07:56] [SPEAKER_04]: Um,
[00:07:57] [SPEAKER_04]: so I love it.
[00:07:58] [SPEAKER_04]: I think it's fantastic.
[00:07:59] [SPEAKER_04]: I was,
[00:07:59] [SPEAKER_00]: well,
[00:08:00] [SPEAKER_00]: I was expecting the wrong John surf shop to show up as well.
[00:08:03] [SPEAKER_00]: I love the generic soda labels,
[00:08:05] [SPEAKER_00]: but the cornhole was an interesting choice because you say,
[00:08:09] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh,
[00:08:09] [SPEAKER_00]: lack of food,
[00:08:10] [SPEAKER_00]: corn hole,
[00:08:12] [SPEAKER_00]: bean bags.
[00:08:14] [SPEAKER_00]: Uh,
[00:08:14] [SPEAKER_00]: very food theme.
[00:08:16] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:08:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Should they,
[00:08:17] [SPEAKER_01]: I know that Rob said on the live show that like,
[00:08:19] [SPEAKER_01]: they should have cut open the beanbags to find advantages.
[00:08:21] [SPEAKER_01]: I say cut open the beanbags,
[00:08:24] [SPEAKER_01]: pocket the beans.
[00:08:26] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
[00:08:27] [SPEAKER_00]: What did we learn from Myrtle?
[00:08:29] [SPEAKER_00]: And there's no Jeff there to stop you.
[00:08:31] [SPEAKER_02]: How old,
[00:08:32] [SPEAKER_02]: how old do we think those beans are?
[00:08:34] [SPEAKER_02]: Right.
[00:08:34] [SPEAKER_02]: Cause those have probably been sitting in the art department for months.
[00:08:37] [SPEAKER_02]: You know,
[00:08:37] [SPEAKER_02]: they're getting rained on.
[00:08:38] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[00:08:39] [SPEAKER_01]: That's true.
[00:08:39] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:08:39] [SPEAKER_01]: It's not,
[00:08:40] [SPEAKER_01]: it's not newly made like the banner.
[00:08:41] [SPEAKER_01]: These are the beanbags that they probably have used in like every challenge
[00:08:44] [SPEAKER_01]: since moving to Fiji,
[00:08:45] [SPEAKER_01]: nearly 10 years old.
[00:08:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:08:47] [SPEAKER_05]: JP Hill's back was flinging those.
[00:08:49] [SPEAKER_01]: exactly.
[00:08:49] [SPEAKER_01]: Like,
[00:08:50] [SPEAKER_01]: well,
[00:08:50] [SPEAKER_01]: see,
[00:08:50] [SPEAKER_01]: like him.
[00:08:51] [SPEAKER_00]: They're about to start sprouting.
[00:08:53] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh my God.
[00:08:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Well,
[00:08:56] [SPEAKER_01]: what we saw sprout over the course of this episode was a good old fashioned
[00:08:58] [SPEAKER_01]: blind side,
[00:08:59] [SPEAKER_01]: but a reaction for the ages.
[00:09:03] [SPEAKER_01]: Uh,
[00:09:03] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean,
[00:09:03] [SPEAKER_01]: again,
[00:09:04] [SPEAKER_01]: Brando fellow fifth boot,
[00:09:06] [SPEAKER_01]: uh,
[00:09:06] [SPEAKER_01]: you know,
[00:09:06] [SPEAKER_01]: you're,
[00:09:06] [SPEAKER_01]: you're nearly at Mergatory.
[00:09:08] [SPEAKER_01]: You feel like you just have to make it through the next stage of the game.
[00:09:11] [SPEAKER_01]: Could you put yourself in Annika's footsteps as she stood there and didn't make any
[00:09:16] [SPEAKER_01]: footsteps just gawking at what was happening?
[00:09:19] [SPEAKER_02]: It's,
[00:09:19] [SPEAKER_02]: it's absolutely brutal.
[00:09:20] [SPEAKER_02]: I loved how long of a pause,
[00:09:23] [SPEAKER_02]: like almost no music that they gave us.
[00:09:25] [SPEAKER_02]: I think it was,
[00:09:25] [SPEAKER_02]: was it over a minute?
[00:09:26] [SPEAKER_02]: I went back to,
[00:09:27] [SPEAKER_02]: to check it before this podcast.
[00:09:29] [SPEAKER_02]: Um,
[00:09:29] [SPEAKER_02]: but it was,
[00:09:30] [SPEAKER_02]: it was a long time where she was just standing there and it's like the raw feeling of almost
[00:09:36] [SPEAKER_02]: being there.
[00:09:37] [SPEAKER_02]: And,
[00:09:37] [SPEAKER_02]: you know,
[00:09:37] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm sure with the two tribe challenge,
[00:09:40] [SPEAKER_02]: she thought that she had made it at least a little bit further than she did.
[00:09:42] [SPEAKER_02]: It's,
[00:09:43] [SPEAKER_02]: it's,
[00:09:43] [SPEAKER_02]: uh,
[00:09:43] [SPEAKER_02]: it's hard to have that taken away when you're,
[00:09:45] [SPEAKER_02]: when you're not expecting it for sure.
[00:09:47] [SPEAKER_02]: So I'm not surprised by her,
[00:09:48] [SPEAKER_02]: her raw reaction.
[00:09:50] [SPEAKER_04]: I,
[00:09:51] [SPEAKER_04]: as somebody who does,
[00:09:52] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:09:52] [SPEAKER_04]: love survivor history,
[00:09:54] [SPEAKER_04]: I do think this is a very interesting example of a blind side.
[00:09:58] [SPEAKER_04]: You know,
[00:09:58] [SPEAKER_04]: you see the Kelly blind side and the Kelly blind side is shot like a murder mystery where
[00:10:02] [SPEAKER_04]: it's,
[00:10:03] [SPEAKER_04]: it's out of nowhere,
[00:10:03] [SPEAKER_04]: right?
[00:10:04] [SPEAKER_04]: To everybody.
[00:10:04] [SPEAKER_04]: And you see like the Michaela Bradshaw,
[00:10:07] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:10:08] [SPEAKER_04]: blind side.
[00:10:08] [SPEAKER_04]: That is not that it is very,
[00:10:10] [SPEAKER_04]: it's a surprise.
[00:10:11] [SPEAKER_04]: And then she has an explosive reaction.
[00:10:12] [SPEAKER_04]: So I,
[00:10:12] [SPEAKER_04]: I think that you have,
[00:10:13] [SPEAKER_04]: we haven't seen something that's like this in quite some time.
[00:10:16] [SPEAKER_04]: Although Annika,
[00:10:17] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:10:18] [SPEAKER_04]: wasn't that big of a surprise just with,
[00:10:21] [SPEAKER_04]: with weeks past,
[00:10:22] [SPEAKER_04]: you either think it's Andy or it's Annika.
[00:10:23] [SPEAKER_04]: I mean,
[00:10:24] [SPEAKER_04]: that's what the show is setting up for,
[00:10:25] [SPEAKER_04]: but I can't remember an example that is just so,
[00:10:28] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:10:28] [SPEAKER_04]: one person is super,
[00:10:30] [SPEAKER_04]: super blindsided.
[00:10:30] [SPEAKER_04]: And then everybody else around her is,
[00:10:32] [SPEAKER_04]: is,
[00:10:33] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:10:33] [SPEAKER_04]: has clues.
[00:10:34] [SPEAKER_04]: Even the audience,
[00:10:34] [SPEAKER_04]: we have clues that it's going to be her or Andy,
[00:10:36] [SPEAKER_04]: right?
[00:10:37] [SPEAKER_04]: And even leading up to tribal council,
[00:10:38] [SPEAKER_04]: you see Andy wheeling and dealing.
[00:10:39] [SPEAKER_04]: You're like,
[00:10:40] [SPEAKER_04]: Oh no,
[00:10:40] [SPEAKER_04]: this might be,
[00:10:40] [SPEAKER_04]: this might be Annika.
[00:10:41] [SPEAKER_04]: And then when it happens,
[00:10:42] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:10:43] [SPEAKER_04]: it is a really,
[00:10:43] [SPEAKER_04]: really interesting vantage point that we don't often get with the
[00:10:47] [SPEAKER_04]: survivor blind side.
[00:10:48] [SPEAKER_04]: You know,
[00:10:48] [SPEAKER_04]: it's not often that it's just solely one person that's blindsided.
[00:10:51] [SPEAKER_04]: Um,
[00:10:52] [SPEAKER_04]: and especially not having that,
[00:10:53] [SPEAKER_04]: that huge of a reaction.
[00:10:55] [SPEAKER_04]: I must say too,
[00:10:56] [SPEAKER_04]: not that,
[00:10:56] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:10:57] [SPEAKER_04]: I noticed the challenges.
[00:10:58] [SPEAKER_04]: I watched the challenges,
[00:10:59] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:10:59] [SPEAKER_04]: finally tooth comb just having,
[00:11:01] [SPEAKER_04]: after having been there,
[00:11:02] [SPEAKER_04]: but you know,
[00:11:03] [SPEAKER_04]: Annika,
[00:11:03] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:11:04] [SPEAKER_04]: ace the puzzle and every challenge that they had,
[00:11:05] [SPEAKER_04]: Annika sat out of the challenge.
[00:11:07] [SPEAKER_04]: Puzzle's not completed in time.
[00:11:09] [SPEAKER_04]: So I wonder,
[00:11:09] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:11:10] [SPEAKER_04]: it's a thought.
[00:11:11] [SPEAKER_04]: It's a thought that,
[00:11:12] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:11:12] [SPEAKER_04]: she,
[00:11:12] [SPEAKER_04]: she was the squeaky wheel that,
[00:11:15] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:11:15] [SPEAKER_04]: or she was the really good wheel.
[00:11:17] [SPEAKER_04]: She wasn't squeaky wheel.
[00:11:18] [SPEAKER_04]: She was the,
[00:11:19] [SPEAKER_04]: you wouldn't believe how little this wheel squeaked with Annika.
[00:11:21] [SPEAKER_04]: I know.
[00:11:22] [SPEAKER_04]: She would have been in there.
[00:11:23] [SPEAKER_04]: Really well oiled.
[00:11:24] [SPEAKER_04]: She's a really well.
[00:11:24] [SPEAKER_04]: Well,
[00:11:24] [SPEAKER_01]: that's the problem is that they needed Andy to saw.
[00:11:27] [SPEAKER_01]: And like,
[00:11:28] [SPEAKER_01]: that's really the,
[00:11:29] [SPEAKER_01]: the sliding doors universe where if Annika is able to dry hump the
[00:11:33] [SPEAKER_01]: saw,
[00:11:34] [SPEAKER_01]: maybe they win the challenge.
[00:11:36] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[00:11:37] [SPEAKER_05]: No other industries like this,
[00:11:39] [SPEAKER_05]: is it?
[00:11:39] [SPEAKER_05]: No,
[00:11:39] [SPEAKER_05]: no,
[00:11:39] [SPEAKER_05]: no other television show.
[00:11:40] [SPEAKER_04]: Do you get to throw lines like out like that out there?
[00:11:43] [SPEAKER_04]: And I,
[00:11:43] [SPEAKER_04]: I admire that.
[00:11:44] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[00:11:44] [SPEAKER_04]: Andy's doing incredible PR for people who are bad at challenges.
[00:11:47] [SPEAKER_04]: You know,
[00:11:48] [SPEAKER_04]: people are,
[00:11:49] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:11:49] [SPEAKER_04]: people are all in on Andy,
[00:11:51] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:11:51] [SPEAKER_04]: and we needed that.
[00:11:52] [SPEAKER_04]: Our,
[00:11:52] [SPEAKER_04]: our,
[00:11:52] [SPEAKER_04]: our industry needed that very bad.
[00:11:54] [SPEAKER_04]: So shout out to Andy for,
[00:11:55] [SPEAKER_04]: for helping us out of it.
[00:11:56] [SPEAKER_04]: He's helping our SEO dramatically.
[00:11:59] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean,
[00:11:59] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm intrigued to see like,
[00:12:01] [SPEAKER_01]: will he be able to both make a deep enough run of the game to have
[00:12:06] [SPEAKER_01]: multiple iconic instances of this,
[00:12:08] [SPEAKER_01]: where he could eclipse crystal Cox as like one of the most noticeable bad
[00:12:13] [SPEAKER_01]: challenge performers.
[00:12:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Cause she was able to benefit from the fact that she made it to the
[00:12:17] [SPEAKER_01]: penultimate episode.
[00:12:18] [SPEAKER_01]: And so we got to see multiple instances of it,
[00:12:20] [SPEAKER_01]: you know,
[00:12:21] [SPEAKER_01]: with Andy,
[00:12:21] [SPEAKER_01]: this was obviously the most flagrant and comical example,
[00:12:25] [SPEAKER_01]: I would say of it.
[00:12:27] [SPEAKER_01]: but now with him making it to the mercury and at least for me,
[00:12:31] [SPEAKER_01]: like looking at his edit stands to probably make a pretty deep cut into the
[00:12:35] [SPEAKER_01]: game.
[00:12:36] [SPEAKER_01]: There is so much more potential to see what exactly this man is going to do
[00:12:41] [SPEAKER_01]: in your most favorite iconic survivor challenges.
[00:12:44] [SPEAKER_02]: I like to live in a world where he could just be hustling us right now.
[00:12:48] [SPEAKER_02]: Right?
[00:12:48] [SPEAKER_02]: Like I was talking to Austin during the last episode and he was saying if he
[00:12:51] [SPEAKER_02]: was playing Cornell,
[00:12:52] [SPEAKER_02]: he'd be sandbagging,
[00:12:53] [SPEAKER_02]: right?
[00:12:53] [SPEAKER_02]: He'd be throwing way to the left,
[00:12:54] [SPEAKER_02]: way to the right.
[00:12:55] [SPEAKER_02]: You don't want people to think that you're good at those challenges.
[00:12:57] [SPEAKER_02]: What if Andy is a sleeper agent,
[00:12:59] [SPEAKER_02]: right?
[00:12:59] [SPEAKER_02]: He's going to unlock his,
[00:13:00] [SPEAKER_02]: his mic from season 30,
[00:13:02] [SPEAKER_02]: blow through all of the individual immunity challenges.
[00:13:05] [SPEAKER_00]: Set the record.
[00:13:06] [SPEAKER_00]: Most wins for individual immunity is I,
[00:13:08] [SPEAKER_00]: I would absolutely love that.
[00:13:11] [SPEAKER_00]: But I mean,
[00:13:11] [SPEAKER_00]: the other thing too,
[00:13:12] [SPEAKER_00]: to keep in mind is that the group challenges,
[00:13:15] [SPEAKER_00]: the team challenges are all about moving.
[00:13:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Whereas the individual immunity challenges are all about not moving.
[00:13:21] [SPEAKER_00]: And maybe that will work out in his favor.
[00:13:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Cause he just has to balance and stand there instead of saw a bunch of
[00:13:27] [SPEAKER_00]: stuff.
[00:13:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:13:28] [SPEAKER_01]: But then someone's going to ask Andy when they're bored,
[00:13:29] [SPEAKER_01]: how are you doing?
[00:13:30] [SPEAKER_01]: And then he's going to go into another monologue and lose his
[00:13:33] [SPEAKER_01]: concentration.
[00:13:34] [SPEAKER_00]: That's where the sleeper agent comes in,
[00:13:35] [SPEAKER_00]: Mike.
[00:13:36] [SPEAKER_01]: That's true.
[00:13:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Jeff has to say the very specific phrase,
[00:13:39] [SPEAKER_01]: like with the idols to unlock that agent sell with him.
[00:13:42] [SPEAKER_01]: And then he just goes full Terminator.
[00:13:44] [SPEAKER_04]: Which read the phrase last time was just,
[00:13:46] [SPEAKER_04]: how are you?
[00:13:48] [SPEAKER_04]: That the phrase is going to be super complicated.
[00:13:50] [SPEAKER_04]: He's not going to pick up on it.
[00:13:51] [SPEAKER_04]: When we were at the live show the other day,
[00:13:53] [SPEAKER_04]: I was sitting in front of Tiffany Sealy who raised the question when we were
[00:13:57] [SPEAKER_04]: all, you know,
[00:13:58] [SPEAKER_04]: chattering about Rome really boning that puzzle,
[00:14:01] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:14:01] [SPEAKER_04]: only had the one,
[00:14:02] [SPEAKER_04]: the one piece and the chatter there,
[00:14:04] [SPEAKER_04]: the chatter online is did Rome throw it?
[00:14:07] [SPEAKER_04]: And Tiffany said,
[00:14:08] [SPEAKER_04]: and I'm taking her quote,
[00:14:09] [SPEAKER_04]: but it applies to your boy.
[00:14:10] [SPEAKER_04]: Also is like,
[00:14:11] [SPEAKER_04]: when I was bad at the challenge,
[00:14:14] [SPEAKER_04]: nobody assumed that I threw it.
[00:14:17] [SPEAKER_04]: You know what I mean?
[00:14:18] [SPEAKER_04]: You have to throw it,
[00:14:20] [SPEAKER_04]: I guess,
[00:14:20] [SPEAKER_04]: so bad.
[00:14:21] [SPEAKER_04]: You have to be so,
[00:14:23] [SPEAKER_04]: so,
[00:14:23] [SPEAKER_04]: so bad at it that people think you throw it.
[00:14:26] [SPEAKER_04]: Tiffany on the balance beam could,
[00:14:27] [SPEAKER_04]: could have been a throw.
[00:14:28] [SPEAKER_04]: Okay.
[00:14:29] [SPEAKER_04]: I wasn't,
[00:14:29] [SPEAKER_04]: I really,
[00:14:30] [SPEAKER_04]: really,
[00:14:30] [SPEAKER_04]: it's crazy how badly I wanted to not be in this position,
[00:14:33] [SPEAKER_04]: but,
[00:14:34] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:14:34] [SPEAKER_04]: I think it's an interesting point where,
[00:14:36] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:14:36] [SPEAKER_04]: Rome was,
[00:14:37] [SPEAKER_04]: is so,
[00:14:38] [SPEAKER_04]: so,
[00:14:38] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:14:38] [SPEAKER_04]: one,
[00:14:39] [SPEAKER_04]: like four pieces looks infinitely better and less throwy than one,
[00:14:43] [SPEAKER_04]: no pieces,
[00:14:44] [SPEAKER_04]: one piece.
[00:14:45] [SPEAKER_04]: But listen,
[00:14:45] [SPEAKER_04]: he didn't throw,
[00:14:46] [SPEAKER_04]: he claims he didn't throw.
[00:14:48] [SPEAKER_01]: I just don't know why he would at that point.
[00:14:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Like,
[00:14:51] [SPEAKER_01]: usually we see people throw it when like,
[00:14:53] [SPEAKER_01]: they feel like they have a lockdown on the numbers and maybe Rome was very
[00:14:58] [SPEAKER_01]: talk sure about where he was,
[00:15:00] [SPEAKER_01]: but you know,
[00:15:01] [SPEAKER_01]: the tribes are already even.
[00:15:03] [SPEAKER_01]: It just seems like for me,
[00:15:04] [SPEAKER_01]: it makes more sense from a narrative perspective,
[00:15:06] [SPEAKER_01]: like that.
[00:15:07] [SPEAKER_01]: This is a guy who claims he can do everything that insists on being put at
[00:15:11] [SPEAKER_01]: the end of every challenge.
[00:15:12] [SPEAKER_01]: And just like absolutely face plans.
[00:15:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Cause again,
[00:15:16] [SPEAKER_01]: I will say like Rome would let you know if he threw the challenge,
[00:15:21] [SPEAKER_01]: he would let everybody know he would stand on that mat as soon as the
[00:15:25] [SPEAKER_01]: challenge finished.
[00:15:26] [SPEAKER_01]: And Jeff would say,
[00:15:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Rome,
[00:15:27] [SPEAKER_01]: how are you?
[00:15:27] [SPEAKER_01]: He's like,
[00:15:28] [SPEAKER_01]: well,
[00:15:28] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm feeling pretty good after I threw the challenge.
[00:15:30] [SPEAKER_01]: So like,
[00:15:31] [SPEAKER_01]: if anything,
[00:15:32] [SPEAKER_01]: he would want to almost lie about it and be like,
[00:15:35] [SPEAKER_01]: no,
[00:15:35] [SPEAKER_01]: I wasn't that bad on the puzzle.
[00:15:37] [SPEAKER_01]: I actually threw it.
[00:15:37] [SPEAKER_01]: He's actually doing the opposite here.
[00:15:39] [SPEAKER_00]: Hmm.
[00:15:40] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean,
[00:15:41] [SPEAKER_00]: then we get another Genevieve,
[00:15:42] [SPEAKER_00]: comment about Rome's been very naughty,
[00:15:45] [SPEAKER_00]: which I know we didn't spend a lot of time with lava in this episode,
[00:15:48] [SPEAKER_00]: but it was really fun to see some of the blowout.
[00:15:51] [SPEAKER_00]: And especially the,
[00:15:52] [SPEAKER_00]: the consequences of losing the reward,
[00:15:56] [SPEAKER_00]: the split reward challenge was also very interesting because there's a
[00:15:59] [SPEAKER_00]: reaction from Rome that obviously a lot of them didn't expect to happen
[00:16:03] [SPEAKER_00]: as teeny is the only one who gets to go on the reward.
[00:16:05] [SPEAKER_00]: So that was also very cool to see that being set up.
[00:16:10] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean,
[00:16:10] [SPEAKER_00]: ultimately we don't see the payoff in this episode,
[00:16:12] [SPEAKER_00]: but I assume that this is going to come back at some point later.
[00:16:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:16:17] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:16:18] [SPEAKER_01]: I,
[00:16:18] [SPEAKER_01]: I,
[00:16:18] [SPEAKER_01]: I would imagine that's the case.
[00:16:20] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean,
[00:16:20] [SPEAKER_01]: we are in for an incredibly messy individual game,
[00:16:25] [SPEAKER_01]: you know,
[00:16:25] [SPEAKER_01]: between the journeys and now this thing,
[00:16:27] [SPEAKER_01]: last time we have some bonds that are being made.
[00:16:30] [SPEAKER_01]: So this is what I alluded to ahead of time.
[00:16:32] [SPEAKER_01]: I will just say that this is going to be a little bit of speculation about
[00:16:36] [SPEAKER_01]: next episode.
[00:16:36] [SPEAKER_01]: If you don't want to remain,
[00:16:39] [SPEAKER_01]: remain in the dark,
[00:16:40] [SPEAKER_01]: not a shot in the dark to now for the next like two minutes or so.
[00:16:43] [SPEAKER_01]: But basically what the scuttlebutt has been online from sort of parsing
[00:16:47] [SPEAKER_01]: out what promos have been doing is that it seems like we're doing individual
[00:16:51] [SPEAKER_01]: immunity.
[00:16:52] [SPEAKER_01]: It's back up for grabs.
[00:16:54] [SPEAKER_01]: And so I think Jeff even says in one promo,
[00:16:57] [SPEAKER_01]: like one will be safe.
[00:16:58] [SPEAKER_01]: 12 will not.
[00:17:00] [SPEAKER_01]: So it looks like now we make it some sort of like team phase of a challenge.
[00:17:05] [SPEAKER_01]: It might be sort of like a,
[00:17:06] [SPEAKER_01]: like the survivor 43 or 45 challenge where like you run it into teams and then
[00:17:11] [SPEAKER_01]: whichever team wins moves on to the next stage.
[00:17:14] [SPEAKER_01]: But whether or not they're quote unquote earning the merge,
[00:17:18] [SPEAKER_01]: we're at least not going to only allow half of the group to be vulnerable,
[00:17:22] [SPEAKER_01]: which I think Brando will be very interesting because I think a lot of these
[00:17:26] [SPEAKER_01]: people that would otherwise be protected from like happening to
[00:17:29] [SPEAKER_01]: get thrown into the right group are suddenly out in the open now.
[00:17:33] [SPEAKER_02]: Right?
[00:17:33] [SPEAKER_02]: No, I agree.
[00:17:34] [SPEAKER_02]: A hundred percent.
[00:17:34] [SPEAKER_02]: We love when they mix it up.
[00:17:36] [SPEAKER_02]: Right.
[00:17:36] [SPEAKER_02]: People have talked about how the new era with no like themes,
[00:17:40] [SPEAKER_02]: just the, you know,
[00:17:41] [SPEAKER_02]: the season numbers gets kind of repetitive.
[00:17:43] [SPEAKER_02]: And so I'm,
[00:17:44] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm very curious to see what they have in store for,
[00:17:47] [SPEAKER_02]: for earn the merge quote unquote this time.
[00:17:49] [SPEAKER_02]: Hmm.
[00:17:49] [SPEAKER_00]: Well,
[00:17:50] [SPEAKER_00]: I,
[00:17:50] [SPEAKER_00]: that's the other thing is that having everybody as an option is just so much
[00:17:54] [SPEAKER_00]: more fun because we write the fan fictions in our heads about,
[00:17:58] [SPEAKER_00]: well,
[00:17:58] [SPEAKER_00]: what's going to happen when everybody comes together and you want to be able
[00:18:01] [SPEAKER_00]: to see the full realm of possibilities play out and to immediately say,
[00:18:06] [SPEAKER_00]: okay,
[00:18:06] [SPEAKER_00]: well,
[00:18:06] [SPEAKER_00]: half of you are off the table.
[00:18:08] [SPEAKER_00]: We're going,
[00:18:09] [SPEAKER_00]: hopefully again,
[00:18:10] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm hoping that this is the case is that it is just one person who's safe.
[00:18:13] [SPEAKER_00]: Then everybody else is on the table,
[00:18:15] [SPEAKER_00]: which I think is going to make the scramble just so much more fun.
[00:18:17] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean,
[00:18:17] [SPEAKER_00]: talk about eggs.
[00:18:19] [SPEAKER_00]: We got a scramble coming up,
[00:18:20] [SPEAKER_00]: baby.
[00:18:21] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh man.
[00:18:21] [SPEAKER_01]: Do you think they're going to bring the eggs to the merge beach?
[00:18:24] [SPEAKER_01]: Those eggs will keep right.
[00:18:26] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:18:26] [SPEAKER_00]: Well done that.
[00:18:27] [SPEAKER_00]: They will never get their Flint back.
[00:18:29] [SPEAKER_00]: Right.
[00:18:30] [SPEAKER_00]: Assuming that.
[00:18:31] [SPEAKER_00]: So like they'll have to,
[00:18:32] [SPEAKER_00]: because otherwise what do they do?
[00:18:33] [SPEAKER_00]: They just have a bunch of raw eggs.
[00:18:34] [SPEAKER_01]: They either eat the raw eggs before they throw them at people.
[00:18:37] [SPEAKER_01]: They don't like tribal council.
[00:18:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Should have brought them to tribal.
[00:18:43] [SPEAKER_04]: It is mischief night after all.
[00:18:44] [SPEAKER_01]: I think so.
[00:18:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Like,
[00:18:45] [SPEAKER_01]: honestly,
[00:18:46] [SPEAKER_01]: if I had an inkling that I was going,
[00:18:49] [SPEAKER_01]: I would put some eggs in my pocket.
[00:18:52] [SPEAKER_01]: And if I were getting voted out,
[00:18:53] [SPEAKER_01]: I would just start hucking eggs at people.
[00:18:57] [SPEAKER_02]: Or you pull a sabaya,
[00:18:59] [SPEAKER_02]: you take them to tribal,
[00:18:59] [SPEAKER_02]: you crack them on the fire.
[00:19:02] [SPEAKER_00]: While you're all.
[00:19:04] [SPEAKER_02]: While everyone's yapping.
[00:19:05] [SPEAKER_02]: Can you eat a raw egg?
[00:19:07] [SPEAKER_02]: Can you just,
[00:19:08] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh,
[00:19:08] [SPEAKER_02]: I know Rocky Balboa did it.
[00:19:09] [SPEAKER_02]: I think.
[00:19:10] [SPEAKER_02]: I think the issue is the egg shell.
[00:19:11] [SPEAKER_02]: I think you're fine with the actual,
[00:19:13] [SPEAKER_02]: this is not medical advice.
[00:19:16] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm not a nutritionist.
[00:19:17] [SPEAKER_02]: I think the inside of the egg is okay.
[00:19:19] [SPEAKER_02]: Is it not?
[00:19:20] [SPEAKER_00]: Well,
[00:19:21] [SPEAKER_00]: I think the issue is like salmonella poisoning.
[00:19:23] [SPEAKER_00]: Right.
[00:19:23] [SPEAKER_00]: So for food poisoning in some capacity.
[00:19:26] [SPEAKER_00]: And I,
[00:19:27] [SPEAKER_00]: I would imagine that the actual egg could,
[00:19:30] [SPEAKER_00]: could be,
[00:19:30] [SPEAKER_00]: but the,
[00:19:31] [SPEAKER_00]: the shell is probably more likely to be covered in bacteria.
[00:19:33] [SPEAKER_00]: So if that would be the cause.
[00:19:35] [SPEAKER_00]: So,
[00:19:36] [SPEAKER_00]: you know,
[00:19:36] [SPEAKER_00]: but I mean,
[00:19:37] [SPEAKER_00]: you know,
[00:19:37] [SPEAKER_00]: there's a little bit of bacteria.
[00:19:41] [SPEAKER_04]: Salmonella.
[00:19:41] [SPEAKER_04]: That's,
[00:19:42] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:19:43] [SPEAKER_04]: big egg is trying to keep you from some,
[00:19:44] [SPEAKER_04]: or trying,
[00:19:45] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:19:45] [SPEAKER_04]: your own salmonella.
[00:19:46] [SPEAKER_04]: I think a lot of suffering from salmonella.
[00:19:49] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh,
[00:19:51] [SPEAKER_04]: I was,
[00:19:52] [SPEAKER_04]: I was going to count how many puns Brando did and you beat him to number one.
[00:19:56] [SPEAKER_02]: That's been a handful of puns already.
[00:20:01] [SPEAKER_02]: A basket worth.
[00:20:02] [SPEAKER_02]: If you know,
[00:20:03] [SPEAKER_02]: that didn't,
[00:20:03] [SPEAKER_02]: that didn't work.
[00:20:04] [SPEAKER_02]: Basket worth of puns.
[00:20:05] [SPEAKER_02]: That didn't work.
[00:20:07] [SPEAKER_01]: What do we think about the deal here?
[00:20:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Was like,
[00:20:10] [SPEAKER_01]: some people are saying Jeff was too soft.
[00:20:12] [SPEAKER_01]: Some were saying like,
[00:20:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh,
[00:20:14] [SPEAKER_01]: that was too low of a number to go for.
[00:20:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Was either side,
[00:20:18] [SPEAKER_01]: the loser here.
[00:20:20] [SPEAKER_00]: Well,
[00:20:21] [SPEAKER_00]: just a quick clarification question before we talk about logistics.
[00:20:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Did Jeff say that the eggs will hatch chickens?
[00:20:27] [SPEAKER_00]: I swear.
[00:20:28] [SPEAKER_02]: I don't think he meant hatch,
[00:20:30] [SPEAKER_02]: but he definitely say hatch.
[00:20:31] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:20:31] [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think he meant that either.
[00:20:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Cause I'm pretty sure those are unfertilized and those are not going to become
[00:20:36] [SPEAKER_00]: chickens.
[00:20:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay,
[00:20:36] [SPEAKER_00]: great.
[00:20:37] [SPEAKER_00]: I just wanted to put that out there.
[00:20:38] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[00:20:38] [SPEAKER_00]: Richard on the mind.
[00:20:39] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[00:20:41] [SPEAKER_02]: I was going to say,
[00:20:42] [SPEAKER_02]: I thought it was a really interesting move to swap the chickens for the eggs
[00:20:46] [SPEAKER_02]: long-term,
[00:20:47] [SPEAKER_02]: right?
[00:20:47] [SPEAKER_02]: Because if you're on a tribe who won this reward,
[00:20:50] [SPEAKER_02]: you're not planning on eating the chickens.
[00:20:52] [SPEAKER_02]: You're kind of screwing over.
[00:20:53] [SPEAKER_02]: Let's say you get voted out right when the merge starts,
[00:20:55] [SPEAKER_02]: right?
[00:20:55] [SPEAKER_02]: You now have this resource that the other tribes can't take advantage of that
[00:20:59] [SPEAKER_02]: you earn.
[00:21:00] [SPEAKER_02]: So I think that was a really interesting move.
[00:21:02] [SPEAKER_02]: I don't know if that's what they intended to do.
[00:21:03] [SPEAKER_02]: Um,
[00:21:04] [SPEAKER_02]: but as far as like the longevity of the reward,
[00:21:06] [SPEAKER_02]: I thought that was interesting.
[00:21:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:21:08] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean,
[00:21:08] [SPEAKER_01]: it is interesting.
[00:21:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Like this is the first instance.
[00:21:10] [SPEAKER_01]: I think that we have specifically themed reward trades.
[00:21:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Like we saw in Sam on Del Sora was,
[00:21:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Hey,
[00:21:16] [SPEAKER_01]: we want to trade in our extra flint for fishing gear.
[00:21:19] [SPEAKER_01]: This was specifically,
[00:21:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Hey,
[00:21:20] [SPEAKER_01]: we want the second place prize instead of the first place prize,
[00:21:23] [SPEAKER_01]: which was linked to eggs,
[00:21:26] [SPEAKER_01]: but it's just such.
[00:21:27] [SPEAKER_01]: And also given the life cycle of a chicken as well felt,
[00:21:31] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know,
[00:21:32] [SPEAKER_01]: very philosophical.
[00:21:33] [SPEAKER_04]: Did I miss in exit press who or what was keeping the guy to try from
[00:21:38] [SPEAKER_04]: killing the chicken?
[00:21:39] [SPEAKER_04]: I don't know who that was.
[00:21:40] [SPEAKER_04]: I know Anika.
[00:21:41] [SPEAKER_04]: I think I saw a clip of her saying that she would have liked to have
[00:21:43] [SPEAKER_04]: killed the chicken.
[00:21:44] [SPEAKER_01]: I think it was probably Sierra.
[00:21:46] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean,
[00:21:46] [SPEAKER_01]: listen,
[00:21:46] [SPEAKER_01]: Sierra was holding a lot of power and she's like,
[00:21:48] [SPEAKER_01]: no,
[00:21:48] [SPEAKER_01]: I went to a winery with a chicken once.
[00:21:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Please have an emotional attachment to it.
[00:21:53] [SPEAKER_01]: I can't drink Merlot again.
[00:21:55] [SPEAKER_01]: If you kill one of these things,
[00:21:57] [SPEAKER_04]: I do think,
[00:21:58] [SPEAKER_04]: I mean,
[00:21:59] [SPEAKER_04]: it's,
[00:21:59] [SPEAKER_04]: it obviously like I would not kill a chick.
[00:22:01] [SPEAKER_04]: I would,
[00:22:02] [SPEAKER_04]: I would,
[00:22:02] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm in on the chicken being killed.
[00:22:04] [SPEAKER_04]: I do not want to physically,
[00:22:06] [SPEAKER_04]: I would Marley and me the chicken.
[00:22:07] [SPEAKER_04]: If that was an option where we could euthanize it or something,
[00:22:10] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:22:10] [SPEAKER_04]: we can,
[00:22:10] [SPEAKER_04]: we can have nice music playing.
[00:22:12] [SPEAKER_04]: I don't want to just like do it.
[00:22:14] [SPEAKER_04]: That takes a strong willpower.
[00:22:15] [SPEAKER_04]: James Clement.
[00:22:16] [SPEAKER_04]: If you have James Clement there,
[00:22:17] [SPEAKER_04]: he can kill the chicken.
[00:22:18] [SPEAKER_04]: But I do think that 18 eggs does seem high.
[00:22:21] [SPEAKER_04]: It seems like it,
[00:22:22] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:22:23] [SPEAKER_04]: maybe like,
[00:22:24] [SPEAKER_04]: I mean,
[00:22:25] [SPEAKER_04]: and again,
[00:22:25] [SPEAKER_04]: I want all my friends to have food and these people are,
[00:22:27] [SPEAKER_04]: are fantastic.
[00:22:28] [SPEAKER_04]: Like one in one in six,
[00:22:30] [SPEAKER_04]: like six eggs,
[00:22:31] [SPEAKER_04]: like one egg for each person.
[00:22:33] [SPEAKER_04]: I don't know.
[00:22:34] [SPEAKER_04]: Um,
[00:22:34] [SPEAKER_04]: but 18,
[00:22:35] [SPEAKER_04]: I guess,
[00:22:35] [SPEAKER_04]: I mean,
[00:22:35] [SPEAKER_04]: Jeff put out the math.
[00:22:37] [SPEAKER_04]: 18 makes sense,
[00:22:37] [SPEAKER_04]: but I'm not,
[00:22:38] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:22:39] [SPEAKER_04]: that's his prerogative.
[00:22:41] [SPEAKER_00]: I wonder if they did it calorie based.
[00:22:43] [SPEAKER_00]: It was okay.
[00:22:44] [SPEAKER_00]: Well,
[00:22:44] [SPEAKER_00]: this is the equivalent in calories to a chicken is six eggs.
[00:22:48] [SPEAKER_00]: So you get an equal amount of calories.
[00:22:51] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm more questioning why they felt the need to stick to eggs as what they were going to barter.
[00:22:58] [SPEAKER_00]: That's what I'm saying.
[00:22:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:22:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Like you don't need to go back.
[00:23:00] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:23:01] [SPEAKER_01]: You don't have to cook.
[00:23:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Exactly.
[00:23:03] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
[00:23:04] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh my God.
[00:23:04] [SPEAKER_00]: That's so great.
[00:23:05] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah,
[00:23:05] [SPEAKER_00]: exactly.
[00:23:05] [SPEAKER_00]: Instead of an eggs,
[00:23:06] [SPEAKER_00]: we get an egg salad sandwich,
[00:23:08] [SPEAKER_00]: you know?
[00:23:08] [SPEAKER_00]: So something that are,
[00:23:10] [SPEAKER_00]: yeah,
[00:23:10] [SPEAKER_00]: you can sort of immediately consume,
[00:23:12] [SPEAKER_00]: especially you have an inkling that like,
[00:23:15] [SPEAKER_00]: you're going to end up merging soon.
[00:23:16] [SPEAKER_00]: So I would imagine,
[00:23:17] [SPEAKER_00]: okay,
[00:23:17] [SPEAKER_00]: let's get something resources for us that we can consume quickly.
[00:23:21] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:23:21] [SPEAKER_01]: So that's what I'm intrigued by as well,
[00:23:23] [SPEAKER_01]: especially if they are going to bring eggs to the next stage,
[00:23:26] [SPEAKER_01]: which is like,
[00:23:27] [SPEAKER_01]: yes,
[00:23:28] [SPEAKER_01]: it is God is eggs,
[00:23:29] [SPEAKER_01]: but are we going to be dealing with like,
[00:23:31] [SPEAKER_01]: for lack of better term,
[00:23:32] [SPEAKER_01]: egg ticket of like people starting to take eggs and eat them from other tribes?
[00:23:37] [SPEAKER_01]: And could that cause some skirmishes?
[00:23:39] [SPEAKER_02]: Like a Sandra esque.
[00:23:41] [SPEAKER_02]: Somebody eats all the eggs,
[00:23:42] [SPEAKER_02]: blames it on somebody else.
[00:23:44] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah,
[00:23:45] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm going to edit that Rome's going to eat all the eggs.
[00:23:47] [SPEAKER_04]: And then who's Rome going to blame it on?
[00:23:49] [SPEAKER_04]: It's a thousand.
[00:23:49] [SPEAKER_04]: Rome is immediately going for the eggs.
[00:23:51] [SPEAKER_04]: There's no,
[00:23:52] [SPEAKER_04]: there's no scenario where it's not Rome going for the eggs.
[00:23:55] [SPEAKER_04]: I just,
[00:23:55] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm curious of who he says,
[00:23:57] [SPEAKER_04]: or you might not even say anybody else to be,
[00:23:59] [SPEAKER_04]: he might just say,
[00:24:00] [SPEAKER_04]: Hey,
[00:24:00] [SPEAKER_04]: they're all,
[00:24:01] [SPEAKER_04]: we're all together.
[00:24:01] [SPEAKER_04]: I would think for sure.
[00:24:02] [SPEAKER_04]: They're going to scramble.
[00:24:04] [SPEAKER_00]: Yep.
[00:24:05] [SPEAKER_00]: That's what I'm saying.
[00:24:06] [SPEAKER_01]: There we go.
[00:24:06] [SPEAKER_01]: It will not,
[00:24:07] [SPEAKER_01]: it will not go over easy.
[00:24:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Certainly not.
[00:24:10] [SPEAKER_01]: But I could see like,
[00:24:12] [SPEAKER_01]: if I'm Rome,
[00:24:13] [SPEAKER_01]: I know,
[00:24:14] [SPEAKER_01]: I would say like,
[00:24:14] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not going to eat all the eggs at once.
[00:24:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe like bury them like a sea turtle.
[00:24:20] [SPEAKER_00]: Like,
[00:24:20] [SPEAKER_00]: yeah,
[00:24:20] [SPEAKER_00]: like a sea turtle.
[00:24:21] [SPEAKER_00]: They're going to hatch and then the chickens are going to crawl into the ocean.
[00:24:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Well,
[00:24:25] [SPEAKER_00]: don't not.
[00:24:26] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh,
[00:24:26] [SPEAKER_00]: wait,
[00:24:26] [SPEAKER_00]: who is it?
[00:24:27] [SPEAKER_00]: Was it,
[00:24:27] [SPEAKER_00]: what season was it where they found the turtles?
[00:24:31] [SPEAKER_00]: That was,
[00:24:31] [SPEAKER_01]: that was 40 and 41.
[00:24:32] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:24:32] [SPEAKER_01]: The little sea turtles represented them.
[00:24:35] [SPEAKER_00]: It was so cute.
[00:24:36] [SPEAKER_01]: The sea.
[00:24:37] [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe they should have asked for sea turtle eggs.
[00:24:40] [SPEAKER_04]: Oh my God.
[00:24:44] [SPEAKER_04]: There's a scene in,
[00:24:45] [SPEAKER_04]: in the Adam Sandler movie,
[00:24:46] [SPEAKER_04]: big daddy,
[00:24:47] [SPEAKER_04]: where,
[00:24:47] [SPEAKER_04]: where Adam Sandler is bringing the child to go trick or treat.
[00:24:51] [SPEAKER_04]: And the guy doesn't have anything.
[00:24:52] [SPEAKER_04]: And he like,
[00:24:53] [SPEAKER_04]: shows them away.
[00:24:54] [SPEAKER_04]: So Adam Sandler breaks into the house and is like,
[00:24:56] [SPEAKER_04]: what do you have?
[00:24:57] [SPEAKER_04]: Like,
[00:24:57] [SPEAKER_04]: give us what you need.
[00:24:58] [SPEAKER_04]: And the guy's putting CDs in the bag.
[00:24:59] [SPEAKER_04]: I think he takes off his watch.
[00:25:00] [SPEAKER_04]: That's what the shakedown should have been for the God of tribe is like,
[00:25:03] [SPEAKER_04]: we're going to give you this,
[00:25:04] [SPEAKER_04]: but like,
[00:25:05] [SPEAKER_04]: what else is here?
[00:25:06] [SPEAKER_04]: What else is it within a 15 foot radius from where you're standing that we
[00:25:09] [SPEAKER_04]: can just,
[00:25:10] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:25:10] [SPEAKER_04]: we'll take anything.
[00:25:12] [SPEAKER_07]: Well,
[00:25:13] [SPEAKER_00]: I think the negotiation you have to start.
[00:25:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:25:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Obviously I understand you start high.
[00:25:17] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:25:18] [SPEAKER_00]: No expert negotiation,
[00:25:19] [SPEAKER_00]: but like you start high,
[00:25:20] [SPEAKER_00]: but if you start too high,
[00:25:23] [SPEAKER_00]: does Jeff just laugh you out the door?
[00:25:26] [SPEAKER_00]: Right.
[00:25:26] [SPEAKER_00]: So if they had gone for,
[00:25:28] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh,
[00:25:28] [SPEAKER_00]: we want,
[00:25:29] [SPEAKER_00]: you know,
[00:25:30] [SPEAKER_00]: a new car and blah,
[00:25:31] [SPEAKER_00]: blah,
[00:25:32] [SPEAKER_00]: blah,
[00:25:32] [SPEAKER_00]: blah,
[00:25:32] [SPEAKER_00]: blah.
[00:25:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Right.
[00:25:33] [SPEAKER_00]: And Jeff's just going to be like,
[00:25:34] [SPEAKER_00]: get out of here.
[00:25:35] [SPEAKER_00]: You're not,
[00:25:35] [SPEAKER_00]: you know,
[00:25:35] [SPEAKER_00]: something on that.
[00:25:36] [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
[00:25:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Jeff,
[00:25:37] [SPEAKER_02]: can we get a truck?
[00:25:38] [SPEAKER_02]: Can we bring back?
[00:25:40] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[00:25:40] [SPEAKER_00]: So that,
[00:25:41] [SPEAKER_00]: that way we could just,
[00:25:41] [SPEAKER_00]: you know,
[00:25:42] [SPEAKER_00]: just like take the car to the immunity or use the car in the immunity
[00:25:46] [SPEAKER_00]: challenge.
[00:25:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh,
[00:25:47] [SPEAKER_01]: well,
[00:25:47] [SPEAKER_01]: yeah,
[00:25:48] [SPEAKER_01]: I've talked about this previously about like what would happen if a
[00:25:50] [SPEAKER_01]: car was a contested,
[00:25:51] [SPEAKER_01]: no rules against it.
[00:25:53] [SPEAKER_02]: You've talked about that previously.
[00:25:54] [SPEAKER_02]: I have.
[00:25:55] [SPEAKER_02]: I talked about cars universe.
[00:25:57] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[00:25:57] [SPEAKER_01]: In survivor South Africa,
[00:25:59] [SPEAKER_01]: they edited their car sponsor into like shots from the show.
[00:26:03] [SPEAKER_01]: And so I thought what would happen if a car,
[00:26:05] [SPEAKER_01]: was a contestant.
[00:26:07] [SPEAKER_01]: I think there are benefits and drawbacks to it.
[00:26:09] [SPEAKER_04]: I like,
[00:26:10] [SPEAKER_04]: I can picture the car in a medical situation.
[00:26:12] [SPEAKER_04]: And Dr.
[00:26:13] [SPEAKER_04]: Joe just running over with like a big red tank of,
[00:26:15] [SPEAKER_04]: of gas and like put it in really quick.
[00:26:18] [SPEAKER_04]: Cause the car was too exhausted.
[00:26:20] [SPEAKER_04]: Oh,
[00:26:22] [SPEAKER_04]: Liana,
[00:26:22] [SPEAKER_04]: we're sucking at the punts.
[00:26:23] [SPEAKER_04]: Although you had the first scramble.
[00:26:24] [SPEAKER_04]: So I think I'm sucking at the punts.
[00:26:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Would Dr.
[00:26:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Joe have to like,
[00:26:27] [SPEAKER_00]: I ran out of gas already.
[00:26:28] [SPEAKER_00]: It's fine.
[00:26:28] [SPEAKER_01]: Would Dr.
[00:26:29] [SPEAKER_01]: Joe have to wear like a mechanic jumpsuit and come in and just be
[00:26:32] [SPEAKER_01]: like,
[00:26:33] [SPEAKER_01]: all right,
[00:26:33] [SPEAKER_01]: well,
[00:26:34] [SPEAKER_01]: didn't expect that by doing this.
[00:26:34] [SPEAKER_01]: Here we go.
[00:26:35] [SPEAKER_04]: Well,
[00:26:36] [SPEAKER_04]: you know what?
[00:26:36] [SPEAKER_04]: With all the folks that have been on survivor 700 plus,
[00:26:39] [SPEAKER_04]: and they used to,
[00:26:40] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:26:40] [SPEAKER_04]: dress more to like what you do it in everyday life.
[00:26:42] [SPEAKER_04]: No mechanic jumpsuits.
[00:26:44] [SPEAKER_04]: We,
[00:26:44] [SPEAKER_04]: you'd think we'd have a mechanic jumpsuit by now.
[00:26:46] [SPEAKER_00]: We've got nothing more jumpsuits,
[00:26:49] [SPEAKER_04]: more jumpsuits,
[00:26:50] [SPEAKER_04]: more jumpsuits,
[00:26:50] [SPEAKER_00]: more jumpsuits,
[00:26:51] [SPEAKER_00]: any kind of jumpsuit.
[00:26:52] [SPEAKER_02]: Would you want to wear a jumpsuit?
[00:26:54] [SPEAKER_02]: I was going to say,
[00:26:54] [SPEAKER_02]: because if your top half or your bottom half gets wet,
[00:26:57] [SPEAKER_02]: then you lose everything,
[00:26:58] [SPEAKER_02]: right?
[00:26:58] [SPEAKER_02]: If it's all connected.
[00:26:59] [SPEAKER_01]: So do you make it a two piece?
[00:27:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Do you immediately like take the hatchet to it and cut it into two
[00:27:04] [SPEAKER_01]: pieces?
[00:27:05] [SPEAKER_04]: Also the,
[00:27:05] [SPEAKER_04]: the breakaway pants have never made it.
[00:27:08] [SPEAKER_04]: And if you're,
[00:27:08] [SPEAKER_04]: yes,
[00:27:08] [SPEAKER_04]: the zip off cargoes also,
[00:27:10] [SPEAKER_04]: what's that?
[00:27:11] [SPEAKER_02]: We've had people cut off their pants.
[00:27:12] [SPEAKER_02]: We've,
[00:27:12] [SPEAKER_02]: have we had zip off cargoes?
[00:27:14] [SPEAKER_02]: I don't think zip off cargo.
[00:27:16] [SPEAKER_01]: I think the only one I could think of,
[00:27:18] [SPEAKER_01]: yes,
[00:27:18] [SPEAKER_01]: it was Chad,
[00:27:20] [SPEAKER_01]: right?
[00:27:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Cause wasn't that Chad's big reveal in Vanuatu was he had the
[00:27:22] [SPEAKER_01]: little like zip off pants that he zipped off the bottom half
[00:27:25] [SPEAKER_01]: of his pants to reveal he was an amputee.
[00:27:27] [SPEAKER_04]: That he did.
[00:27:28] [SPEAKER_04]: He said,
[00:27:29] [SPEAKER_04]: you guys think I made it here pretty good.
[00:27:30] [SPEAKER_04]: Right.
[00:27:30] [SPEAKER_04]: And everybody was like,
[00:27:31] [SPEAKER_04]: yeah,
[00:27:31] [SPEAKER_04]: you did.
[00:27:32] [SPEAKER_04]: And then boom reveal.
[00:27:34] [SPEAKER_00]: But imagine if he had tear away pants.
[00:27:37] [SPEAKER_00]: Imagine that reveal.
[00:27:39] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean,
[00:27:40] [SPEAKER_00]: yeah,
[00:27:41] [SPEAKER_04]: not enough.
[00:27:41] [SPEAKER_00]: That's what they should have negotiated for.
[00:27:43] [SPEAKER_00]: Who needs food?
[00:27:44] [SPEAKER_00]: You can get tear away pants.
[00:27:46] [SPEAKER_00]: Honestly,
[00:27:46] [SPEAKER_01]: they should negotiate for like clothes.
[00:27:49] [SPEAKER_01]: Jeff,
[00:27:50] [SPEAKER_01]: can I have your shoes?
[00:27:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:27:52] [SPEAKER_00]: Jeff,
[00:27:52] [SPEAKER_00]: can I have your shoes?
[00:27:53] [SPEAKER_00]: Hats,
[00:27:53] [SPEAKER_00]: sunglasses.
[00:27:55] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh,
[00:27:55] [SPEAKER_00]: I would die for a pair of sunglasses out there.
[00:27:58] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean,
[00:27:58] [SPEAKER_01]: you never know until you ask.
[00:28:01] [SPEAKER_01]: I also was thinking,
[00:28:03] [SPEAKER_01]: could they have bartered with the other tribes?
[00:28:06] [SPEAKER_01]: Could they have been like,
[00:28:06] [SPEAKER_01]: Hey,
[00:28:07] [SPEAKER_01]: you give us,
[00:28:07] [SPEAKER_01]: how many eggs have you eaten?
[00:28:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Can we have them?
[00:28:09] [SPEAKER_01]: If we give you a chicken.
[00:28:10] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[00:28:11] [SPEAKER_04]: Can we take Saul if possible?
[00:28:13] [SPEAKER_02]: Can we give these chickens?
[00:28:15] [SPEAKER_02]: How many chickens is Saul worth?
[00:28:17] [SPEAKER_02]: Well,
[00:28:17] [SPEAKER_02]: you're trading food for another mouth to feed.
[00:28:20] [SPEAKER_02]: So it's kind of balanced.
[00:28:21] [SPEAKER_05]: Right.
[00:28:21] [SPEAKER_05]: I think it works.
[00:28:22] [SPEAKER_05]: It's true.
[00:28:22] [SPEAKER_00]: No,
[00:28:24] [SPEAKER_05]: I would take Saul.
[00:28:25] [SPEAKER_05]: If I had my pick from anybody from the other tribes,
[00:28:27] [SPEAKER_05]: I would take Saul.
[00:28:28] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[00:28:28] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean,
[00:28:29] [SPEAKER_00]: you have to,
[00:28:29] [SPEAKER_00]: he's like reasonable,
[00:28:31] [SPEAKER_00]: calm,
[00:28:32] [SPEAKER_00]: strong.
[00:28:33] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean,
[00:28:34] [SPEAKER_00]: you definitely would want him.
[00:28:35] [SPEAKER_01]: He says when things go wrong.
[00:28:37] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[00:28:38] [SPEAKER_00]: Lights,
[00:28:39] [SPEAKER_00]: lights up like the sun.
[00:28:40] [SPEAKER_04]: The fart was interesting.
[00:28:41] [SPEAKER_04]: The new era,
[00:28:42] [SPEAKER_04]: a big,
[00:28:43] [SPEAKER_04]: big fart era for survival.
[00:28:45] [SPEAKER_04]: There's been a couple of fart scenes in the new era.
[00:28:47] [SPEAKER_04]: I mean,
[00:28:47] [SPEAKER_04]: I don't know if we call Saul saying fart a fart scene,
[00:28:49] [SPEAKER_04]: but you know,
[00:28:50] [SPEAKER_04]: Danny famously farts in that one challenge,
[00:28:52] [SPEAKER_04]: famously doing a lot of heavy work in the sentence,
[00:28:54] [SPEAKER_04]: but he does.
[00:28:55] [SPEAKER_04]: Well,
[00:28:55] [SPEAKER_04]: famous for you,
[00:28:56] [SPEAKER_04]: I guess.
[00:28:58] [SPEAKER_00]: You remember that.
[00:28:59] [SPEAKER_00]: Not me.
[00:29:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Other people are talking about it.
[00:29:03] [SPEAKER_00]: Not me.
[00:29:04] [SPEAKER_05]: Not me.
[00:29:05] [SPEAKER_05]: Brandon doesn't have a spreadsheet full of every fart room.
[00:29:07] [SPEAKER_05]: I'm just going to close the tab.
[00:29:09] [SPEAKER_05]: Hold on one second.
[00:29:10] [SPEAKER_01]: I wonder,
[00:29:11] [SPEAKER_01]: I wonder if like,
[00:29:12] [SPEAKER_01]: maybe,
[00:29:13] [SPEAKER_01]: you know,
[00:29:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Saul's a relatively new guy to the show.
[00:29:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe he like very much low balls,
[00:29:17] [SPEAKER_01]: the age rating for survivors.
[00:29:19] [SPEAKER_01]: It was like,
[00:29:20] [SPEAKER_01]: I can't swear on the show.
[00:29:21] [SPEAKER_01]: So let me come up with all of these other curses.
[00:29:24] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[00:29:24] [SPEAKER_04]: That's a good,
[00:29:25] [SPEAKER_04]: that's a good,
[00:29:25] [SPEAKER_04]: a good,
[00:29:26] [SPEAKER_04]: uh,
[00:29:26] [SPEAKER_04]: listen,
[00:29:27] [SPEAKER_04]: you get camera time.
[00:29:28] [SPEAKER_04]: You throw a fart out there.
[00:29:29] [SPEAKER_04]: You get camera time.
[00:29:29] [SPEAKER_04]: Shout out to Danny.
[00:29:31] [SPEAKER_04]: Well,
[00:29:31] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean,
[00:29:32] [SPEAKER_00]: well,
[00:29:32] [SPEAKER_00]: shout out to Andy.
[00:29:33] [SPEAKER_00]: Speaking of the like intense moments,
[00:29:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Andy's voting confessional.
[00:29:38] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean,
[00:29:38] [SPEAKER_00]: Mike,
[00:29:38] [SPEAKER_00]: you've talked about voting confessional before,
[00:29:40] [SPEAKER_00]: and this was one,
[00:29:42] [SPEAKER_00]: I think what I've been,
[00:29:43] [SPEAKER_00]: I've been burying you for the past 10 days.
[00:29:46] [SPEAKER_00]: Here's your headstone or something like that.
[00:29:49] [SPEAKER_00]: It was such a good television.
[00:29:51] [SPEAKER_00]: It was amazing.
[00:29:52] [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know where this Andy has been,
[00:29:54] [SPEAKER_00]: but this was felt,
[00:29:56] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean,
[00:29:56] [SPEAKER_00]: he's obviously been a focus for a lot of the episodes,
[00:29:58] [SPEAKER_00]: but this really felt like a breakout in a different direction for him
[00:30:02] [SPEAKER_00]: because we see him talking about,
[00:30:04] [SPEAKER_00]: this is my fake plan.
[00:30:05] [SPEAKER_00]: I put this fake plan in place.
[00:30:07] [SPEAKER_00]: And then to end everything with that final headstone moment,
[00:30:10] [SPEAKER_00]: I really,
[00:30:11] [SPEAKER_00]: really enjoyed from him.
[00:30:12] [SPEAKER_00]: It was almost like he just got this second life out there.
[00:30:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:30:15] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean,
[00:30:16] [SPEAKER_01]: I guess it's maybe because the action on Gata has not really been
[00:30:20] [SPEAKER_01]: focused on like this Andy Anika rivalry.
[00:30:23] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean,
[00:30:23] [SPEAKER_01]: I guess like,
[00:30:24] [SPEAKER_01]: you know,
[00:30:25] [SPEAKER_01]: even though Andy does vote out John,
[00:30:26] [SPEAKER_01]: he was brought in on John's last minute plan to vote on a cut.
[00:30:29] [SPEAKER_01]: So I guess it like has been something,
[00:30:32] [SPEAKER_01]: but yeah,
[00:30:32] [SPEAKER_01]: it was a little full,
[00:30:33] [SPEAKER_01]: like Steve Moses,
[00:30:34] [SPEAKER_01]: Becky from big brother 17.
[00:30:36] [SPEAKER_01]: And that like,
[00:30:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Andy comes in and be like,
[00:30:37] [SPEAKER_01]: I hate her guts.
[00:30:39] [SPEAKER_01]: I need to see her head roll.
[00:30:40] [SPEAKER_01]: It's like,
[00:30:41] [SPEAKER_01]: where did this come from,
[00:30:42] [SPEAKER_01]: dude?
[00:30:43] [SPEAKER_02]: I would have loved if he gave that voted voting confessional and
[00:30:47] [SPEAKER_02]: then got voted out himself and they still showed it.
[00:30:50] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh,
[00:30:50] [SPEAKER_02]: amazing.
[00:30:50] [SPEAKER_02]: Really good TV.
[00:30:52] [SPEAKER_02]: I wish they would have shown mine.
[00:30:54] [SPEAKER_02]: I held up my,
[00:30:55] [SPEAKER_02]: my drew frowny face.
[00:30:56] [SPEAKER_02]: And I said,
[00:30:57] [SPEAKER_02]: it looks like you drew the short end of the stick.
[00:30:59] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh,
[00:31:02] [SPEAKER_00]: they should have aired it anyway.
[00:31:04] [SPEAKER_01]: That's the thing.
[00:31:05] [SPEAKER_01]: Like you gotta don't,
[00:31:06] [SPEAKER_01]: you gotta leave money on the table.
[00:31:07] [SPEAKER_01]: You have 90 minutes,
[00:31:08] [SPEAKER_01]: like show those voting confessionals.
[00:31:11] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[00:31:11] [SPEAKER_04]: Annika changed the game for folks who didn't have a vote after
[00:31:14] [SPEAKER_04]: holding up the thing.
[00:31:16] [SPEAKER_04]: Cause I,
[00:31:16] [SPEAKER_04]: I mean,
[00:31:16] [SPEAKER_04]: I had no vote and I walked up to the thing.
[00:31:18] [SPEAKER_04]: I saw it.
[00:31:19] [SPEAKER_04]: And then I just talked to the camera much as like I'm doing
[00:31:21] [SPEAKER_04]: now,
[00:31:21] [SPEAKER_04]: but actually holding it.
[00:31:23] [SPEAKER_04]: I think that's how you get that on TV is holding up the
[00:31:25] [SPEAKER_04]: thing that says you can't vote.
[00:31:26] [SPEAKER_04]: I regretted not looking for the pen.
[00:31:28] [SPEAKER_04]: Cause I would have liked to have just,
[00:31:29] [SPEAKER_04]: I never got to use the pen.
[00:31:31] [SPEAKER_04]: I would have liked to have just written.
[00:31:32] [SPEAKER_04]: The pen was so cool.
[00:31:33] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[00:31:33] [SPEAKER_04]: The pen was really cool.
[00:31:34] [SPEAKER_04]: It's a cool pen.
[00:31:35] [SPEAKER_01]: It's interesting.
[00:31:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Cause like,
[00:31:36] [SPEAKER_01]: there's also a bit of a meta evolution to it.
[00:31:39] [SPEAKER_01]: Cause I was there for the first tribal council of 39 where
[00:31:42] [SPEAKER_01]: Elizabeth Basil did not have a vote.
[00:31:44] [SPEAKER_01]: And she had to physically write down no vote on her piece of paper.
[00:31:48] [SPEAKER_01]: There was no placard that said like,
[00:31:51] [SPEAKER_01]: yep,
[00:31:51] [SPEAKER_01]: it's disregarded.
[00:31:52] [SPEAKER_01]: She had to legitimately write it down.
[00:31:53] [SPEAKER_01]: So that like,
[00:31:54] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
[00:31:54] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't remember if Jeff pulled out something that said no vote or if
[00:31:57] [SPEAKER_01]: it's just like,
[00:31:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh yeah,
[00:31:58] [SPEAKER_01]: I forgot.
[00:31:58] [SPEAKER_01]: I guess we have to throw it away.
[00:31:59] [SPEAKER_01]: But it was such an odd thing compared to the relatively railroaded
[00:32:03] [SPEAKER_01]: way.
[00:32:03] [SPEAKER_01]: They do things now.
[00:32:04] [SPEAKER_04]: And there's something to be said for like taking time in the voting
[00:32:07] [SPEAKER_04]: booth.
[00:32:08] [SPEAKER_04]: Cause I remember that I went up there.
[00:32:09] [SPEAKER_04]: I said to the,
[00:32:10] [SPEAKER_04]: I was like,
[00:32:10] [SPEAKER_04]: I,
[00:32:10] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:32:11] [SPEAKER_04]: mom and dad didn't go great.
[00:32:12] [SPEAKER_04]: I love you.
[00:32:13] [SPEAKER_04]: And then I walked out,
[00:32:14] [SPEAKER_04]: but there is something to be said for like staying there for like a
[00:32:17] [SPEAKER_04]: couple extra minutes.
[00:32:18] [SPEAKER_04]: They're not going to tell you to go down,
[00:32:19] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:32:20] [SPEAKER_04]: and then everybody else who's voting thinks that you may have
[00:32:21] [SPEAKER_04]: something,
[00:32:22] [SPEAKER_04]: even if they've already all voted,
[00:32:23] [SPEAKER_04]: it is nice to like scare them for a couple of minutes.
[00:32:25] [SPEAKER_04]: I think that's like,
[00:32:26] [SPEAKER_04]: that's funny to go out the door,
[00:32:27] [SPEAKER_04]: like having them worry if you had something,
[00:32:29] [SPEAKER_04]: at least for the 20 minutes it takes until you're voted out.
[00:32:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Could you just be up there working on your tie five?
[00:32:34] [SPEAKER_00]: You're like,
[00:32:35] [SPEAKER_00]: look,
[00:32:35] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to take advantage of this.
[00:32:37] [SPEAKER_00]: All right.
[00:32:37] [SPEAKER_00]: I have a camera fixed on me,
[00:32:38] [SPEAKER_00]: baby.
[00:32:39] [SPEAKER_00]: We're going through my jokes.
[00:32:41] [SPEAKER_04]: I could have done all the second boots up there.
[00:32:43] [SPEAKER_04]: I don't know why.
[00:32:44] [SPEAKER_01]: Or that's when you just smear your eggs all over the voting booth.
[00:32:47] [SPEAKER_01]: So the next person that asked him,
[00:32:48] [SPEAKER_01]: I was like,
[00:32:48] [SPEAKER_01]: what the hell?
[00:32:50] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[00:32:50] [SPEAKER_04]: That's a new evolution is like,
[00:32:51] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm obviously this isn't allowed,
[00:32:53] [SPEAKER_04]: but like for conjecture is writing something somewhere else.
[00:32:55] [SPEAKER_04]: Like you can do like graffiti on the table or something,
[00:32:58] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:32:59] [SPEAKER_04]: nobody's doing graffiti on the table.
[00:33:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh,
[00:33:01] [SPEAKER_00]: that's amazing.
[00:33:02] [SPEAKER_00]: I really love that idea.
[00:33:03] [SPEAKER_00]: I also have to go back to the eggs.
[00:33:05] [SPEAKER_00]: Can you actually take supplies with you?
[00:33:08] [SPEAKER_00]: Cause we see people obviously get voted out with idols or clothes or
[00:33:11] [SPEAKER_00]: whatever,
[00:33:12] [SPEAKER_00]: but could you just like take the fishing gear and just like hold it
[00:33:16] [SPEAKER_00]: while you're sitting there and then be like,
[00:33:18] [SPEAKER_00]: you guys vote me out.
[00:33:19] [SPEAKER_00]: Like I'm taking the fishing gear with me.
[00:33:21] [SPEAKER_02]: I think you can take whatever you wanted.
[00:33:22] [SPEAKER_04]: I don't think they would stop you.
[00:33:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:33:25] [SPEAKER_04]: I wasn't there,
[00:33:26] [SPEAKER_04]: but I do know that when Sabaya was voted out,
[00:33:27] [SPEAKER_04]: she did have a machete in her bag.
[00:33:29] [SPEAKER_04]: And then there was a Angelina esque moment asking for the machete back.
[00:33:34] [SPEAKER_04]: And I don't recall.
[00:33:36] [SPEAKER_04]: I should,
[00:33:36] [SPEAKER_04]: I've heard this story now many times.
[00:33:37] [SPEAKER_04]: I should know this,
[00:33:38] [SPEAKER_04]: but I think that she gave it back.
[00:33:40] [SPEAKER_04]: I don't remember.
[00:33:40] [SPEAKER_04]: Or she might've walked over there and then they got another one,
[00:33:42] [SPEAKER_04]: but that is something that has happened.
[00:33:46] [SPEAKER_00]: That's what you do with the eggs.
[00:33:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:33:48] [SPEAKER_01]: So I think that's the thing is like,
[00:33:50] [SPEAKER_01]: then do you have to relegate somebody to like watch over the fishing gear?
[00:33:55] [SPEAKER_01]: So it doesn't get taken by somebody else.
[00:33:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Cause it is a good question of like big Wendy took the Flint and sat on the
[00:34:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Flint.
[00:34:01] [SPEAKER_01]: What's to say that you can't do that with any other thing at camp as long as
[00:34:04] [SPEAKER_01]: it's not personal property.
[00:34:06] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh,
[00:34:06] [SPEAKER_00]: that's why Jeff takes the Flint.
[00:34:08] [SPEAKER_00]: So you can't steal it.
[00:34:10] [SPEAKER_00]: We thought it was like a punishment,
[00:34:11] [SPEAKER_00]: but it was actually a benefit.
[00:34:12] [SPEAKER_00]: It was like,
[00:34:13] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean,
[00:34:14] [SPEAKER_00]: sorry for you,
[00:34:15] [SPEAKER_00]: but also like,
[00:34:16] [SPEAKER_00]: you know,
[00:34:16] [SPEAKER_00]: sorry for you.
[00:34:17] [SPEAKER_04]: He's doing loss prevention.
[00:34:18] [SPEAKER_04]: Like they have it.
[00:34:21] [SPEAKER_01]: You walk out with the Flint,
[00:34:23] [SPEAKER_01]: a dye bag explodes in your face.
[00:34:26] [SPEAKER_00]: They're going to put those things on every side of the path that you walk
[00:34:30] [SPEAKER_00]: out of tribal council.
[00:34:34] [SPEAKER_01]: That's really what that,
[00:34:35] [SPEAKER_01]: that arc is when you walk out of tribal council,
[00:34:38] [SPEAKER_01]: just one big security scanner.
[00:34:39] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah,
[00:34:40] exactly.
[00:34:40] [SPEAKER_05]: No,
[00:34:40] [SPEAKER_05]: I people,
[00:34:41] [SPEAKER_05]: and I'm going to,
[00:34:42] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm going to pivot hard,
[00:34:42] [SPEAKER_04]: but people talk badly about the,
[00:34:46] [SPEAKER_04]: the abandoned season 41 idea with Rick Devins working like the store.
[00:34:50] [SPEAKER_04]: You know,
[00:34:50] [SPEAKER_04]: there was,
[00:34:51] [SPEAKER_04]: that was supposed to be a thing of Rick Devins works the store with the
[00:34:53] [SPEAKER_04]: bandages and stuff.
[00:34:54] [SPEAKER_04]: I think that's the coolest thing in the world.
[00:34:56] [SPEAKER_04]: And I hope that it's,
[00:34:57] [SPEAKER_04]: if,
[00:34:57] [SPEAKER_04]: if Rick Devins himself is not on the eventual season 50,
[00:34:59] [SPEAKER_04]: I hope the store is there.
[00:35:01] [SPEAKER_04]: If they're taking applications,
[00:35:02] [SPEAKER_04]: I would like to potentially work at the store.
[00:35:04] [SPEAKER_05]: I do think that,
[00:35:05] [SPEAKER_05]: you know,
[00:35:05] [SPEAKER_05]: you could build in so many fun,
[00:35:07] [SPEAKER_05]: little like Easter egg mechanics,
[00:35:09] [SPEAKER_05]: like the,
[00:35:10] [SPEAKER_04]: the little buzzer things.
[00:35:11] [SPEAKER_04]: When you walk out,
[00:35:12] [SPEAKER_04]: when you're stealing,
[00:35:13] [SPEAKER_04]: I think there's so much opportunity to make the survivor store.
[00:35:16] [SPEAKER_04]: And listen,
[00:35:16] [SPEAKER_04]: if you're listening to this and you hate this idea and they end up doing it,
[00:35:19] [SPEAKER_04]: don't tag me.
[00:35:20] [SPEAKER_04]: Don't,
[00:35:21] [SPEAKER_04]: I don't want to hear about it.
[00:35:22] [SPEAKER_04]: Tag Brando.
[00:35:22] [SPEAKER_04]: He's here.
[00:35:23] [SPEAKER_05]: Tag anybody.
[00:35:23] [SPEAKER_05]: You know,
[00:35:24] [SPEAKER_05]: I mean,
[00:35:25] [SPEAKER_01]: I would love if they like staffed the survivor shop of a bunch of alumni to just be there.
[00:35:32] [SPEAKER_01]: Like it's an actual convenience store,
[00:35:34] [SPEAKER_01]: like the sanctuary that you go to habitually.
[00:35:37] [SPEAKER_04]: They would make me be like the overwhelmed stock boy.
[00:35:39] [SPEAKER_04]: Who's like putting in cans and I'm fucking sweating.
[00:35:42] [SPEAKER_04]: You know,
[00:35:42] [SPEAKER_05]: I can,
[00:35:43] [SPEAKER_05]: I can really picture that.
[00:35:44] [SPEAKER_05]: That's it.
[00:35:45] [SPEAKER_05]: Brandon,
[00:35:45] [SPEAKER_05]: what would you do in the store?
[00:35:46] [SPEAKER_05]: What would be?
[00:35:46] [SPEAKER_05]: They'd have me doing math in the background.
[00:35:54] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm adding up.
[00:35:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Jeff,
[00:35:55] [SPEAKER_01]: if you're giving away 18 eggs,
[00:35:57] [SPEAKER_01]: you're putting us in the red.
[00:35:58] [SPEAKER_02]: I pull like an abacus.
[00:36:01] Yeah.
[00:36:04] [SPEAKER_07]: Oh,
[00:36:04] [SPEAKER_07]: that's so great.
[00:36:05] That's fun.
[00:36:07] [SPEAKER_01]: What's that?
[00:36:08] [SPEAKER_01]: I think it would be fun.
[00:36:09] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean,
[00:36:09] [SPEAKER_01]: listen,
[00:36:09] [SPEAKER_01]: like they've already gone above and beyond doing like the,
[00:36:12] [SPEAKER_01]: the printouts of the banner.
[00:36:13] [SPEAKER_01]: I think they could aesthetically decorate an entire convenience store to set up at some
[00:36:18] [SPEAKER_01]: part of the Island.
[00:36:19] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[00:36:20] [SPEAKER_04]: What would the name be?
[00:36:21] [SPEAKER_04]: Is there a good name that I'm like,
[00:36:23] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm,
[00:36:23] [SPEAKER_01]: I feel like I'm floating on the Jeffy Mart or something.
[00:36:26] [SPEAKER_04]: Jeffy Mart.
[00:36:27] [SPEAKER_04]: Jeffy Mart.
[00:36:27] [SPEAKER_04]: I like the Jeffy Mart.
[00:36:29] [SPEAKER_04]: Maybe that's it.
[00:36:31] [SPEAKER_04]: Meeting adjourned.
[00:36:32] [SPEAKER_04]: We got it.
[00:36:32] [SPEAKER_01]: We did it.
[00:36:34] [SPEAKER_01]: We can all go home.
[00:36:36] [SPEAKER_01]: All right.
[00:36:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Well,
[00:36:37] [SPEAKER_01]: let us get into our usual thoroughfare here on the B and B and let us go back to the
[00:36:41] [SPEAKER_01]: woman of the hour and a half.
[00:36:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Let's talk about Anika here because Anika,
[00:36:47] [SPEAKER_01]: it was,
[00:36:48] [SPEAKER_01]: it was a big five episodes.
[00:36:49] [SPEAKER_01]: I would say that ended with a big finish.
[00:36:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Liana,
[00:36:53] [SPEAKER_01]: you and I have been in lockstep this entire time.
[00:36:56] [SPEAKER_01]: You and I have both thought that survivor 47 would go a very particular way.
[00:37:00] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:37:00] [SPEAKER_01]: See if we can make it five for five.
[00:37:02] [SPEAKER_01]: How did you think that Anika was going to do preseason?
[00:37:06] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah,
[00:37:06] [SPEAKER_00]: this one was brutal for me in terms of the predictions.
[00:37:09] [SPEAKER_00]: I had her making the finale.
[00:37:12] [SPEAKER_00]: So this puts a really big wrinkle into everything.
[00:37:15] [SPEAKER_00]: So this might be the place where we deviate.
[00:37:17] [SPEAKER_00]: I said that despite being a project manager,
[00:37:21] [SPEAKER_00]: Anika plays a solid under the radar game after a rocky start of losing her vote at the first
[00:37:26] [SPEAKER_00]: journey of the season,
[00:37:28] [SPEAKER_00]: which takes away any agency.
[00:37:30] [SPEAKER_00]: She has pre jury.
[00:37:31] [SPEAKER_00]: She forms tight bonds with Sam and come the merge teeny.
[00:37:35] [SPEAKER_00]: However,
[00:37:36] [SPEAKER_00]: her once close alliance falls apart.
[00:37:38] [SPEAKER_00]: When teeny convinces Anika to betray Sam,
[00:37:41] [SPEAKER_00]: citing him as a massive individual immunity beast.
[00:37:45] [SPEAKER_00]: With Sam on the jury,
[00:37:46] [SPEAKER_00]: he counterclaims all of Anika's moves in the final tribal council.
[00:37:50] [SPEAKER_00]: As a result,
[00:37:51] [SPEAKER_00]: she only receives one vote to win.
[00:37:54] [SPEAKER_00]: Her ally and her enemy were both Sam.
[00:37:58] [SPEAKER_00]: So there's a universe where this happens.
[00:38:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Interesting.
[00:38:03] [SPEAKER_01]: So you had her then come,
[00:38:04] [SPEAKER_01]: not to like pronunciate too much.
[00:38:06] [SPEAKER_01]: You had her losing,
[00:38:06] [SPEAKER_01]: but was she like a,
[00:38:07] [SPEAKER_01]: was it like a,
[00:38:08] [SPEAKER_01]: what?
[00:38:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Six,
[00:38:09] [SPEAKER_01]: one,
[00:38:09] [SPEAKER_01]: one vote in the end or five,
[00:38:11] [SPEAKER_01]: two,
[00:38:11] [SPEAKER_01]: one.
[00:38:11] [SPEAKER_00]: I don't remember,
[00:38:12] [SPEAKER_00]: but she got,
[00:38:13] [SPEAKER_00]: I'd have to go back and look at my other predictions,
[00:38:14] [SPEAKER_00]: but she got one vote.
[00:38:15] [SPEAKER_00]: And I also specified specifically it was from Sue.
[00:38:18] [SPEAKER_00]: So,
[00:38:18] [SPEAKER_00]: you know,
[00:38:19] [SPEAKER_00]: that counts.
[00:38:21] [SPEAKER_01]: All right,
[00:38:21] [SPEAKER_01]: there we go.
[00:38:22] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[00:38:22] [SPEAKER_01]: Well,
[00:38:23] [SPEAKER_01]: to your point,
[00:38:24] [SPEAKER_01]: Liana,
[00:38:25] [SPEAKER_01]: this is where I leave you.
[00:38:26] [SPEAKER_01]: And this is where I left Anika in the pre jury.
[00:38:30] [SPEAKER_01]: I said that true to her own preseason prediction,
[00:38:34] [SPEAKER_01]: any intention that Anika had to not take charge,
[00:38:36] [SPEAKER_01]: it goes out the window.
[00:38:38] [SPEAKER_01]: She almost immediately steps up to get got a good with John
[00:38:43] [SPEAKER_01]: immediately gravitating to the got a gals.
[00:38:45] [SPEAKER_01]: They quickly form a majority Alliance and her eyes are set on Sam,
[00:38:49] [SPEAKER_01]: who she never quite trusted from all of his Ponderosa journal,
[00:38:53] [SPEAKER_01]: Anika is sent off on a journey and unfortunately loses her vote.
[00:38:56] [SPEAKER_01]: She comes back and tells the truth to her tribe,
[00:38:59] [SPEAKER_01]: but John begins to get paranoid after seeing her behavior after her
[00:39:02] [SPEAKER_01]: return.
[00:39:03] [SPEAKER_01]: As a result,
[00:39:04] [SPEAKER_01]: the men and Sierra turn on Anika and Rachel,
[00:39:07] [SPEAKER_01]: and we get to see Anika self-proclaimed expressiveness in the wake of
[00:39:11] [SPEAKER_01]: her blind side.
[00:39:13] [SPEAKER_01]: And I said,
[00:39:13] [SPEAKER_01]: her closest ally would be Rachel and her enemies would be John and Sam.
[00:39:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:39:17] [SPEAKER_00]: So she was the first boot from Gata for you.
[00:39:20] [SPEAKER_01]: She was.
[00:39:21] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:39:22] [SPEAKER_00]: Interesting.
[00:39:23] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:39:23] [SPEAKER_00]: Well,
[00:39:24] [SPEAKER_00]: well,
[00:39:24] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean,
[00:39:26] [SPEAKER_00]: it's a little bit of a done deal.
[00:39:28] [SPEAKER_00]: Not exactly a competition here.
[00:39:30] [SPEAKER_00]: I like that.
[00:39:31] [SPEAKER_00]: We both had the,
[00:39:32] [SPEAKER_00]: her losing her vote.
[00:39:33] [SPEAKER_00]: I guess we just felt like,
[00:39:34] [SPEAKER_00]: yep,
[00:39:35] [SPEAKER_00]: she's going to lose her vote.
[00:39:36] [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know why.
[00:39:37] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean,
[00:39:37] [SPEAKER_01]: to be fair,
[00:39:38] [SPEAKER_01]: like Brandon could speak to this,
[00:39:40] [SPEAKER_01]: like the vast majority of time,
[00:39:41] [SPEAKER_01]: you do lose your vote when you go on a journey.
[00:39:43] [SPEAKER_04]: So you do that.
[00:39:45] [SPEAKER_04]: You know,
[00:39:45] [SPEAKER_04]: people complaining about the game of chance.
[00:39:47] [SPEAKER_04]: I had to do it.
[00:39:48] [SPEAKER_04]: Like I would have loved the game of chance would have been better for
[00:39:50] [SPEAKER_04]: you,
[00:39:50] [SPEAKER_04]: boy.
[00:39:51] [SPEAKER_04]: I do think regarding Anika,
[00:39:53] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:39:54] [SPEAKER_04]: Anika has every skill to like do really well and to win survivor.
[00:39:58] [SPEAKER_04]: And it just,
[00:39:58] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:39:59] [SPEAKER_04]: as our,
[00:40:00] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:40:00] [SPEAKER_04]: they don't cast people who they think will lose or go out,
[00:40:03] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:40:03] [SPEAKER_04]: in a specific fashion.
[00:40:04] [SPEAKER_04]: Like they cast everybody with the intent to win.
[00:40:06] [SPEAKER_04]: And they cast some people with the,
[00:40:08] [SPEAKER_04]: not hope to win by any means,
[00:40:09] [SPEAKER_04]: but they cast everybody with the intent to win.
[00:40:11] [SPEAKER_04]: They cast five or six people knowing they could very well win.
[00:40:14] [SPEAKER_04]: And Anika is one of those people.
[00:40:15] [SPEAKER_04]: Anika is one of those people on any season that she's on.
[00:40:17] [SPEAKER_04]: And sometimes those people go far,
[00:40:19] [SPEAKER_04]: sometimes they win.
[00:40:19] [SPEAKER_04]: And sometimes they're out around where she's out,
[00:40:21] [SPEAKER_04]: but it's a testament to her.
[00:40:23] [SPEAKER_04]: I mean,
[00:40:23] [SPEAKER_04]: Jeff said it on the,
[00:40:24] [SPEAKER_04]: on fire podcast,
[00:40:25] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:40:25] [SPEAKER_04]: she has,
[00:40:26] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:40:26] [SPEAKER_04]: every skill and more to be able to really deliver at survivor.
[00:40:29] [SPEAKER_04]: And,
[00:40:29] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:40:30] [SPEAKER_04]: this time it didn't work out,
[00:40:31] [SPEAKER_04]: but in a world where they do like a all pre jury season,
[00:40:34] [SPEAKER_04]: or a,
[00:40:34] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:40:35] [SPEAKER_04]: return of the outcast in South Africa had half pre jury,
[00:40:37] [SPEAKER_04]: half everybody else.
[00:40:38] [SPEAKER_04]: Like she could,
[00:40:39] [SPEAKER_04]: she could really,
[00:40:40] [SPEAKER_04]: really in another world,
[00:40:41] [SPEAKER_04]: make a big run at this thing.
[00:40:42] [SPEAKER_04]: And this is a loss for all of us.
[00:40:43] [SPEAKER_04]: Cause you know,
[00:40:44] [SPEAKER_04]: I read all the online chatter.
[00:40:45] [SPEAKER_04]: People really enjoyed her confessionals as well as just seeing her
[00:40:48] [SPEAKER_04]: navigate the game.
[00:40:49] [SPEAKER_04]: So it's a loss.
[00:40:50] [SPEAKER_04]: And,
[00:40:51] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:40:51] [SPEAKER_04]: the,
[00:40:51] [SPEAKER_04]: the season's going to be great,
[00:40:53] [SPEAKER_04]: but I do think that,
[00:40:54] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:40:54] [SPEAKER_04]: we're going to,
[00:40:55] [SPEAKER_04]: we're going to miss,
[00:40:55] [SPEAKER_04]: we're going to miss this one.
[00:40:56] [SPEAKER_04]: Sure.
[00:40:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:40:57] [SPEAKER_01]: I think I loved the,
[00:40:58] [SPEAKER_01]: the personality that she brought.
[00:41:01] [SPEAKER_01]: I think she very much not to say like,
[00:41:02] [SPEAKER_01]: she surprised me in that I thought she'd be a particular way,
[00:41:04] [SPEAKER_01]: but like,
[00:41:05] [SPEAKER_01]: I loved how much she was herself from the beginning,
[00:41:07] [SPEAKER_01]: whether it was also like her tension with Sam,
[00:41:09] [SPEAKER_01]: whether it was her saying that Andy was giving toxic,
[00:41:12] [SPEAKER_01]: clingy boyfriend,
[00:41:13] [SPEAKER_01]: like it was.
[00:41:14] [SPEAKER_01]: And of course with that exit,
[00:41:15] [SPEAKER_01]: like,
[00:41:16] [SPEAKER_01]: I think she was a very fun personality.
[00:41:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Brando,
[00:41:19] [SPEAKER_01]: is there a chance that like all of you Bay area pre mergers can just
[00:41:23] [SPEAKER_01]: do an LRG one day because there's so many of you accumulating.
[00:41:27] [SPEAKER_02]: And we're all Asian for some reason,
[00:41:29] [SPEAKER_02]: which is crazy.
[00:41:32] [SPEAKER_02]: We should.
[00:41:32] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[00:41:32] [SPEAKER_02]: I'll,
[00:41:33] [SPEAKER_02]: I'll try to,
[00:41:33] [SPEAKER_02]: I'll try to get that going.
[00:41:34] [SPEAKER_02]: That'd be a lot of fun.
[00:41:35] [SPEAKER_02]: The,
[00:41:35] [SPEAKER_02]: the Asian pre merge Bay area,
[00:41:38] [SPEAKER_02]: California.
[00:41:40] [SPEAKER_02]: My winner pick is Jessica Chong.
[00:41:42] [SPEAKER_04]: I want to see Jessica Chong to survivor.
[00:41:44] [SPEAKER_04]: It's so bad.
[00:41:45] [SPEAKER_04]: I think it'll be so much better.
[00:41:46] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:41:47] [SPEAKER_01]: She'll be very well rested by comparison.
[00:41:49] [SPEAKER_01]: I think it'll be okay.
[00:41:50] [SPEAKER_04]: I really,
[00:41:51] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm,
[00:41:51] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm hoping for it,
[00:41:52] [SPEAKER_04]: but yeah,
[00:41:52] [SPEAKER_04]: we,
[00:41:53] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:41:53] [SPEAKER_04]: it's a good group and this,
[00:41:54] [SPEAKER_04]: this pre jury so far,
[00:41:55] [SPEAKER_04]: not to talk poorly or in any way about any other pre jury,
[00:41:58] [SPEAKER_04]: but this is like,
[00:41:59] [SPEAKER_04]: you're getting like,
[00:42:00] [SPEAKER_04]: whether it's blind set after blind set,
[00:42:02] [SPEAKER_04]: whatever,
[00:42:02] [SPEAKER_04]: but you're also getting,
[00:42:03] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:42:03] [SPEAKER_04]: people in,
[00:42:04] [SPEAKER_04]: in another world that can do super,
[00:42:05] [SPEAKER_04]: super well.
[00:42:05] [SPEAKER_04]: So I do think that's the same amongst most seasons,
[00:42:08] [SPEAKER_04]: but this one in particular,
[00:42:09] [SPEAKER_04]: I think you're getting that you're getting a really talented pre
[00:42:11] [SPEAKER_04]: This one's definitely it's top seven for me for sure.
[00:42:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:42:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Well,
[00:42:14] [SPEAKER_01]: I want to ask about that.
[00:42:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Cause I put out there.
[00:42:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh yeah,
[00:42:16] [SPEAKER_01]: of course.
[00:42:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Thanks,
[00:42:17] [SPEAKER_01]: Brando.
[00:42:17] [SPEAKER_01]: Uh,
[00:42:17] [SPEAKER_01]: that,
[00:42:18] [SPEAKER_01]: uh,
[00:42:25] [SPEAKER_01]: this up against for me,
[00:42:27] [SPEAKER_01]: 42.
[00:42:27] [SPEAKER_01]: I really enjoyed,
[00:42:28] [SPEAKER_01]: I really enjoyed 45 as well.
[00:42:30] [SPEAKER_01]: I certainly made my opinions known at the moment that like,
[00:42:32] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't really care necessarily about it.
[00:42:34] [SPEAKER_01]: It doesn't ruin my enjoyment of the show that much.
[00:42:37] [SPEAKER_01]: But I think for me,
[00:42:38] [SPEAKER_01]: to your point,
[00:42:39] [SPEAKER_01]: there's just so much contained in here.
[00:42:42] [SPEAKER_01]: There is some wild gameplay.
[00:42:44] [SPEAKER_01]: We have gotten some pretty interesting power shifts over the course of
[00:42:47] [SPEAKER_01]: only five votes.
[00:42:48] [SPEAKER_01]: It helps that everyone has gone to tribal council at least once.
[00:42:52] [SPEAKER_01]: There are a couple of things like,
[00:42:54] [SPEAKER_01]: you know,
[00:42:54] [SPEAKER_01]: the,
[00:42:54] [SPEAKER_01]: the journey where Annika was basically forced to give up her vote.
[00:42:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Wasn't great.
[00:42:58] [SPEAKER_01]: The summit was like the social hour was fine,
[00:43:01] [SPEAKER_01]: but I think,
[00:43:02] [SPEAKER_01]: you know,
[00:43:02] [SPEAKER_01]: we're continuing on from this trend of 46 of just like pure mess and
[00:43:07] [SPEAKER_01]: conflict.
[00:43:07] [SPEAKER_01]: And that's very exciting to see.
[00:43:09] [SPEAKER_01]: And it also being supported with some very interesting gameplay made for a
[00:43:13] [SPEAKER_01]: very,
[00:43:13] [SPEAKER_01]: very solid pre-merge in my opinion.
[00:43:15] [SPEAKER_01]: And I personally think the best we've seen since the show came back.
[00:43:19] [SPEAKER_00]: If I'm not exactly sure in my rankings,
[00:43:22] [SPEAKER_00]: where it would go,
[00:43:22] [SPEAKER_00]: I'd really have to think about it.
[00:43:24] [SPEAKER_00]: But one of the takeaways that I've had from the,
[00:43:26] [SPEAKER_00]: this season so far is I'm really invested in every single tribe.
[00:43:30] [SPEAKER_00]: And I don't know if that's a consequence of that.
[00:43:32] [SPEAKER_00]: We've seen it spread out,
[00:43:34] [SPEAKER_00]: right?
[00:43:34] [SPEAKER_00]: The first three tribal councils,
[00:43:36] [SPEAKER_00]: three different tribes when we of course saw Lavo go back and,
[00:43:39] [SPEAKER_00]: and,
[00:43:39] [SPEAKER_00]: and gotta go back,
[00:43:40] [SPEAKER_00]: but it was just nice to have that spread out a little bit more.
[00:43:43] [SPEAKER_00]: So maybe it's the editors are having to spend more time actually building
[00:43:47] [SPEAKER_00]: storylines on each tribe because everybody does go to tribal.
[00:43:50] [SPEAKER_00]: So maybe it's something along those lines,
[00:43:52] [SPEAKER_00]: but I do.
[00:43:53] [SPEAKER_00]: There isn't a tribe where I'm like,
[00:43:55] [SPEAKER_00]: okay,
[00:43:55] [SPEAKER_00]: I don't really care if they go to tribal every single tribe.
[00:43:57] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm like,
[00:43:58] [SPEAKER_00]: I care if they go to tribal.
[00:43:59] [SPEAKER_00]: I want to know what happens.
[00:44:02] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah,
[00:44:02] [SPEAKER_04]: certainly.
[00:44:03] [SPEAKER_04]: I think that,
[00:44:04] [SPEAKER_04]: I think too,
[00:44:04] [SPEAKER_04]: that having each,
[00:44:06] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:44:06] [SPEAKER_04]: tribe go to tribal council lets you,
[00:44:07] [SPEAKER_04]: I mean,
[00:44:08] [SPEAKER_04]: stating the obvious here,
[00:44:09] [SPEAKER_04]: but you get to have a personal relationship with each person.
[00:44:12] [SPEAKER_04]: Whereas like just contrasting with 45,
[00:44:14] [SPEAKER_04]: I do think that we spent so much time with my team that it's like,
[00:44:17] [SPEAKER_04]: you,
[00:44:18] [SPEAKER_04]: you,
[00:44:18] [SPEAKER_04]: you lose,
[00:44:18] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:44:19] [SPEAKER_04]: the relationships that you have with people on the other two tribes and
[00:44:22] [SPEAKER_04]: survive 45,
[00:44:23] [SPEAKER_04]: they're the folks that ended up going far or have a super,
[00:44:25] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:44:26] [SPEAKER_04]: fun or exciting run as opposed to this one where it kind of just feels
[00:44:29] [SPEAKER_04]: wide open because not that the edit in 45 was,
[00:44:32] [SPEAKER_04]: was not equal,
[00:44:33] [SPEAKER_04]: but I mean,
[00:44:35] [SPEAKER_04]: sure.
[00:44:35] [SPEAKER_04]: But also I think that here you,
[00:44:37] [SPEAKER_04]: it feels very much like an even playing field.
[00:44:40] [SPEAKER_04]: Whereas the folks that got voted out of survive 47 feel completed in a
[00:44:44] [SPEAKER_04]: weird way.
[00:44:44] [SPEAKER_04]: Like you feel like satisfied each time because you're spending so much time
[00:44:47] [SPEAKER_04]: with them as opposed to maybe,
[00:44:49] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:44:49] [SPEAKER_04]: it's one,
[00:44:50] [SPEAKER_04]: two,
[00:44:53] [SPEAKER_04]: tribes.
[00:44:53] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah,
[00:44:54] [SPEAKER_01]: I'd agree with that.
[00:44:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Like even Brando,
[00:44:55] [SPEAKER_01]: like you had your sort of like flash in,
[00:44:57] [SPEAKER_01]: you know,
[00:44:58] [SPEAKER_01]: the,
[00:44:58] [SPEAKER_01]: I think it was episode two with being in the middle,
[00:45:00] [SPEAKER_01]: but then like you kind of fade into the background for those other two.
[00:45:02] [SPEAKER_01]: And it does feel like,
[00:45:03] [SPEAKER_01]: you know,
[00:45:04] [SPEAKER_01]: people sort of dip out.
[00:45:05] [SPEAKER_01]: We talked about Jill,
[00:45:06] [SPEAKER_01]: Genevieve,
[00:45:07] [SPEAKER_01]: obviously like really coming to the forefront last episode,
[00:45:09] [SPEAKER_01]: but this does feel like one of those seasons where we have both a
[00:45:12] [SPEAKER_01]: handle on who each person is,
[00:45:14] [SPEAKER_01]: as well as seemingly what they're standing is in the game as well,
[00:45:17] [SPEAKER_01]: which is again,
[00:45:18] [SPEAKER_01]: like a perfect formula.
[00:45:19] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm really intrigued by all of the Caroline content.
[00:45:22] [SPEAKER_02]: We got at the social hour,
[00:45:27] [SPEAKER_02]: because I feel like we're getting a lot of both cross tribe and her like
[00:45:31] [SPEAKER_02]: interpersonal relationship with Sue.
[00:45:33] [SPEAKER_02]: And so I'm curious to see how that's going to go since they,
[00:45:36] [SPEAKER_02]: they've only been to travel,
[00:45:37] [SPEAKER_02]: you know,
[00:45:37] [SPEAKER_02]: the,
[00:45:37] [SPEAKER_02]: the one time.
[00:45:38] [SPEAKER_02]: Um,
[00:45:38] [SPEAKER_02]: so I'm really curious to see why they're putting so much time into that,
[00:45:43] [SPEAKER_02]: uh,
[00:45:43] [SPEAKER_02]: sort of position specifically.
[00:45:45] [SPEAKER_00]: Well,
[00:45:45] [SPEAKER_00]: and I also to add on top of that,
[00:45:48] [SPEAKER_00]: it,
[00:45:48] [SPEAKER_00]: when you go,
[00:45:49] [SPEAKER_00]: we go back to Tuku and then it's,
[00:45:51] [SPEAKER_00]: the story is really about Sue,
[00:45:54] [SPEAKER_00]: Gabe,
[00:45:54] [SPEAKER_00]: Tiana.
[00:45:55] [SPEAKER_00]: So why is Caroline being sort of,
[00:45:58] [SPEAKER_00]: I don't want to say like pigeonholed in there,
[00:46:01] [SPEAKER_00]: but it feels like,
[00:46:02] [SPEAKER_00]: okay,
[00:46:03] [SPEAKER_00]: but we're getting this from Caroline's perspective about her saying,
[00:46:05] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm the mother hen.
[00:46:06] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm trying to corral,
[00:46:07] [SPEAKER_00]: which is funny given the fact that they give up the chickens.
[00:46:09] [SPEAKER_00]: Mrs.
[00:46:10] [SPEAKER_00]: Peppers could never.
[00:46:11] [SPEAKER_00]: So she is like trying to corral the rest of Tuku.
[00:46:13] [SPEAKER_00]: She's like,
[00:46:14] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh,
[00:46:14] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm the one who needs to get,
[00:46:15] [SPEAKER_00]: uh,
[00:46:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Tiana to apologize.
[00:46:17] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm the one who wants us to all move forward together.
[00:46:19] [SPEAKER_00]: So there does feel like a lot from her perspective,
[00:46:21] [SPEAKER_00]: which is very interesting to me,
[00:46:23] [SPEAKER_00]: which says,
[00:46:24] [SPEAKER_00]: okay,
[00:46:24] [SPEAKER_00]: something's going to happen.
[00:46:25] [SPEAKER_00]: Obviously in merge is a reason why we're being shown this.
[00:46:28] [SPEAKER_00]: So is it just have to do with the Tuku dynamics or because as
[00:46:31] [SPEAKER_00]: Brando mentioned,
[00:46:32] [SPEAKER_00]: we're seeing other relationships from the other tribes.
[00:46:35] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:46:35] [SPEAKER_00]: Is she the orchestrator?
[00:46:37] [SPEAKER_00]: You know,
[00:46:37] [SPEAKER_00]: is she going to be the one to really again,
[00:46:39] [SPEAKER_00]: corral the chickens and bring everybody together,
[00:46:42] [SPEAKER_00]: maybe for the first vote that intrigues me and actually gives me
[00:46:45] [SPEAKER_00]: something interesting about Caroline,
[00:46:46] [SPEAKER_00]: which we hadn't seen a ton of before.
[00:46:48] [SPEAKER_00]: So there is something interesting for each person that I'm very
[00:46:52] [SPEAKER_00]: curious to see what happens,
[00:46:53] [SPEAKER_00]: uh,
[00:46:54] [SPEAKER_00]: moving forward.
[00:46:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:46:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Well,
[00:46:55] [SPEAKER_01]: especially cause also now we have like,
[00:46:57] [SPEAKER_01]: we've had a couple of opportunities for cross tribal stuff.
[00:47:00] [SPEAKER_01]: And it seems like someone like Caroline did take the bait and was
[00:47:03] [SPEAKER_01]: like,
[00:47:03] [SPEAKER_01]: Hey,
[00:47:03] [SPEAKER_01]: let's work on something.
[00:47:04] [SPEAKER_01]: Also helps that Rachel is like,
[00:47:06] [SPEAKER_01]: well,
[00:47:06] [SPEAKER_01]: my closest ally just got voted out.
[00:47:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Now I was left out of the vote by my tribe.
[00:47:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Hello.
[00:47:10] [SPEAKER_01]: So let's all work together.
[00:47:12] [SPEAKER_01]: So as much as Caroline,
[00:47:14] [SPEAKER_01]: I think is going to try to push like,
[00:47:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Hey,
[00:47:16] [SPEAKER_01]: five is a plurality.
[00:47:17] [SPEAKER_01]: Let's move forward together.
[00:47:19] [SPEAKER_01]: Uh,
[00:47:20] [SPEAKER_01]: I think this will luckily open up some,
[00:47:22] [SPEAKER_01]: some very fun,
[00:47:23] [SPEAKER_01]: exciting greener pastures where we're,
[00:47:24] [SPEAKER_01]: we might be dealing more with like,
[00:47:26] [SPEAKER_01]: okay,
[00:47:27] [SPEAKER_01]: here are all these,
[00:47:28] [SPEAKER_01]: you know,
[00:47:28] [SPEAKER_01]: duos and trios just working together.
[00:47:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Mishmash as opposed to,
[00:47:33] [SPEAKER_01]: okay,
[00:47:34] [SPEAKER_01]: this is a big chunk.
[00:47:35] [SPEAKER_01]: That's going to work together.
[00:47:36] [SPEAKER_01]: I'll allow the re before for a long time.
[00:47:38] [SPEAKER_01]: And then eventually split apart when,
[00:47:40] [SPEAKER_01]: you know,
[00:47:40] [SPEAKER_01]: the chips are down.
[00:47:42] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[00:47:42] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah,
[00:47:43] [SPEAKER_00]: totally.
[00:47:43] [SPEAKER_01]: I,
[00:47:44] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:47:44] [SPEAKER_04]: Caroline is my winner.
[00:47:47] [SPEAKER_04]: Oh,
[00:47:49] [SPEAKER_04]: I mean,
[00:47:50] [SPEAKER_04]: and again,
[00:47:50] [SPEAKER_04]: maybe this is in my head cause I want it to be true so bad,
[00:47:52] [SPEAKER_04]: but like,
[00:47:52] [SPEAKER_04]: if you look at the scenes of the two good tribe,
[00:47:55] [SPEAKER_04]: like strategizing,
[00:47:56] [SPEAKER_04]: Caroline is like always around.
[00:47:58] [SPEAKER_04]: Like,
[00:47:58] [SPEAKER_04]: like she's always like present in the scene,
[00:48:00] [SPEAKER_04]: whether she's in the conversation or not,
[00:48:02] [SPEAKER_04]: she's there.
[00:48:03] [SPEAKER_04]: And I,
[00:48:03] [SPEAKER_04]: I think I had said this a couple of weeks ago,
[00:48:05] [SPEAKER_04]: but like in a season of like really big personalities,
[00:48:08] [SPEAKER_04]: like they're highlighting how big Rome's personality is,
[00:48:11] [SPEAKER_04]: how big,
[00:48:12] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:48:12] [SPEAKER_04]: John's was,
[00:48:13] [SPEAKER_04]: how big Andy's was,
[00:48:14] [SPEAKER_04]: whatever.
[00:48:14] [SPEAKER_04]: I think that a really fun editing thing is to like the person who maybe on
[00:48:18] [SPEAKER_04]: paper,
[00:48:18] [SPEAKER_04]: I don't even want to say has the smallest personality,
[00:48:21] [SPEAKER_04]: but maybe just in comparison to everybody else feels a little bit more
[00:48:24] [SPEAKER_04]: muted.
[00:48:24] [SPEAKER_04]: Like that's the person who's always in the background making the decision
[00:48:27] [SPEAKER_04]: that you made.
[00:48:28] [SPEAKER_04]: Caroline had the line when she was at the social hour that said like,
[00:48:30] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:48:31] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm not playing cornhole.
[00:48:32] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm playing survivor.
[00:48:32] [SPEAKER_04]: Like I'm not going to take a break.
[00:48:34] [SPEAKER_04]: It's a good line.
[00:48:35] [SPEAKER_04]: It's a really good line.
[00:48:36] [SPEAKER_04]: Great line.
[00:48:37] [SPEAKER_04]: And I think that,
[00:48:37] [SPEAKER_04]: you know,
[00:48:38] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm,
[00:48:38] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm on the,
[00:48:39] [SPEAKER_04]: if Caroline,
[00:48:39] [SPEAKER_04]: if there was a name for what,
[00:48:41] [SPEAKER_04]: like the Caroline train,
[00:48:43] [SPEAKER_04]: the Caroline caravan,
[00:48:45] [SPEAKER_04]: something.
[00:48:45] [SPEAKER_04]: Ooh,
[00:48:45] [SPEAKER_04]: I like that.
[00:48:46] [SPEAKER_04]: Caroline,
[00:48:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Caroline carriage,
[00:48:48] [SPEAKER_04]: the Caroline carriage.
[00:48:49] [SPEAKER_04]: I am driving it.
[00:48:51] [SPEAKER_04]: That was me doing the thing that people do to horses.
[00:48:53] [SPEAKER_04]: You know,
[00:48:53] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm,
[00:48:53] [SPEAKER_04]: if I'm in the front car,
[00:48:56] [SPEAKER_04]: I don't,
[00:48:56] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm just not whipping.
[00:48:57] [SPEAKER_04]: Don't,
[00:48:57] [SPEAKER_04]: don't worry.
[00:48:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:48:59] [SPEAKER_01]: No.
[00:49:00] [SPEAKER_04]: Don't worry.
[00:49:01] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[00:49:02] [SPEAKER_04]: I know you were on the fence about that money for me.
[00:49:04] [SPEAKER_04]: See it.
[00:49:04] [SPEAKER_04]: Don't worry.
[00:49:05] [SPEAKER_04]: You can still retroactively write.
[00:49:07] [SPEAKER_00]: Bring it back.
[00:49:08] [SPEAKER_00]: Bring it back.
[00:49:09] [SPEAKER_00]: Bring it back.
[00:49:09] [SPEAKER_02]: We'll see about that.
[00:49:10] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[00:49:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:49:13] [SPEAKER_00]: Well,
[00:49:15] [SPEAKER_00]: I think it's time for us to get into our activity of the day.
[00:49:20] [SPEAKER_00]: And we are going to be doing something very special,
[00:49:23] [SPEAKER_00]: very near and dear to my heart.
[00:49:24] [SPEAKER_00]: When the two of you were going to come on the BNB,
[00:49:26] [SPEAKER_00]: I knew what I had to do.
[00:49:28] [SPEAKER_00]: And that is a choose your own adventure.
[00:49:31] [SPEAKER_00]: So we are going to be playing a choose your own adventure story.
[00:49:35] [SPEAKER_00]: It is a tradition on the BNB that you must come up with a character,
[00:49:39] [SPEAKER_00]: a name,
[00:49:40] [SPEAKER_00]: a description,
[00:49:41] [SPEAKER_00]: motivation.
[00:49:42] [SPEAKER_00]: I believe last time we did this was the premiere of 45.
[00:49:46] [SPEAKER_00]: And what was the name of your clown character?
[00:49:48] [SPEAKER_00]: Mike,
[00:49:49] [SPEAKER_00]: you and Kevin Jacobs came up with some clown character.
[00:49:51] [SPEAKER_00]: Was it a clown or was it?
[00:49:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh yeah.
[00:49:55] [SPEAKER_01]: It was a clown,
[00:49:56] [SPEAKER_01]: but he talked with like a very husky voice.
[00:50:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:50:01] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:50:01] [SPEAKER_00]: That I don't remember.
[00:50:02] [SPEAKER_00]: I don't remember.
[00:50:03] [SPEAKER_01]: There was one that I think I was a calendar model in.
[00:50:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Then there was the cloud.
[00:50:08] [SPEAKER_01]: I think the clown was last time.
[00:50:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:50:10] [SPEAKER_01]: That was also the one where we drowned in one of these universes.
[00:50:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:50:14] [SPEAKER_01]: That's in the marooning.
[00:50:15] [SPEAKER_00]: So is a possibility.
[00:50:16] [SPEAKER_00]: So I'm just going to throw that out there.
[00:50:19] [SPEAKER_00]: So therefore you must come up with the name of your character.
[00:50:23] [SPEAKER_00]: Who's going to be participating in the choose your own adventure story.
[00:50:27] [SPEAKER_00]: If we have any ideas,
[00:50:28] [SPEAKER_00]: any inspiration that we could throw out there to start the brainstorming process.
[00:50:33] [SPEAKER_02]: I mean,
[00:50:33] [SPEAKER_02]: I already got mine locked in.
[00:50:35] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh,
[00:50:35] [SPEAKER_02]: I've been,
[00:50:36] [SPEAKER_02]: you know,
[00:50:36] [SPEAKER_02]: I've really been thinking about club penguin recently.
[00:50:39] [SPEAKER_02]: And this takes me back to my,
[00:50:41] [SPEAKER_02]: my very first club penguin character was named gob Don after my paternal
[00:50:47] [SPEAKER_02]: grandfather,
[00:50:47] [SPEAKER_02]: who's named Gordon.
[00:50:49] [SPEAKER_02]: So I think I'm going to be going with gob Don for my.
[00:50:52] [SPEAKER_01]: So was it just the name Gordon,
[00:50:54] [SPEAKER_02]: but you subbed out an R for a B.
[00:50:56] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[00:50:56] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh,
[00:50:56] [SPEAKER_02]: cause I'm,
[00:50:57] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm Brando.
[00:50:57] [SPEAKER_02]: You gotta,
[00:50:58] [SPEAKER_02]: you know,
[00:50:58] [SPEAKER_02]: put my,
[00:50:59] [SPEAKER_02]: my touch in there somewhere.
[00:51:00] [SPEAKER_00]: You all have to be gob Don because you always a collective.
[00:51:04] [SPEAKER_00]: You're not,
[00:51:04] [SPEAKER_00]: you're not choosing your own.
[00:51:06] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh,
[00:51:06] [SPEAKER_00]: I didn't know.
[00:51:07] [SPEAKER_00]: I didn't know it was collective.
[00:51:08] [SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[00:51:09] [SPEAKER_00]: You can each have a run at the story.
[00:51:11] [SPEAKER_00]: If you want,
[00:51:11] [SPEAKER_00]: it's the same.
[00:51:12] [SPEAKER_01]: How about gob Don is his first name and Francis chooses the last name.
[00:51:16] [SPEAKER_05]: You choose the middle name.
[00:51:17] [SPEAKER_05]: I too was going to go with gob Don.
[00:51:19] [SPEAKER_07]: That's so weird.
[00:51:20] [SPEAKER_05]: I do think that it's easier if we just do gob Don.
[00:51:24] [SPEAKER_05]: Gob Don is great.
[00:51:25] [SPEAKER_05]: You think,
[00:51:26] [SPEAKER_05]: Brando,
[00:51:26] [SPEAKER_05]: are you the only person that's ever named your club penguin avatar after your
[00:51:30] [SPEAKER_05]: grandfather?
[00:51:31] [SPEAKER_05]: Probably.
[00:51:32] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[00:51:32] [SPEAKER_05]: I was like four or five.
[00:51:34] [SPEAKER_05]: I believe that's great.
[00:51:35] [SPEAKER_05]: Long may he rain.
[00:51:36] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[00:51:36] [SPEAKER_05]: I'm just,
[00:51:37] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm just obsessed with like,
[00:51:38] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to give,
[00:51:39] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to give it my own little touch and it's not going to be board in.
[00:51:42] [SPEAKER_01]: It's going to be,
[00:51:43] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm smack in the middle.
[00:51:44] [SPEAKER_01]: Gob Don.
[00:51:45] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
[00:51:46] [SPEAKER_00]: Gob Don.
[00:51:47] [SPEAKER_05]: Gob Don.
[00:51:48] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:51:49] [SPEAKER_00]: So do you want to give Gob Don a last name or is Gob Don's last name?
[00:51:51] [SPEAKER_00]: Just Gob Don.
[00:51:52] [SPEAKER_00]: So it's Gob Don,
[00:51:53] [SPEAKER_00]: Gob Don.
[00:51:53] [SPEAKER_00]: And then Mike,
[00:51:53] [SPEAKER_00]: do you want to give a middle name for Gob Don,
[00:51:55] [SPEAKER_00]: Gob Don?
[00:51:56] [SPEAKER_00]: Gob Don.
[00:51:57] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:51:58] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh,
[00:51:58] [SPEAKER_00]: Gob Don,
[00:51:59] [SPEAKER_00]: Gob Don,
[00:51:59] [SPEAKER_00]: Gob Don.
[00:52:01] [SPEAKER_00]: Impossible.
[00:52:03] [SPEAKER_01]: We're not the host Leon.
[00:52:06] [SPEAKER_01]: The twist is if you say his name three times,
[00:52:08] [SPEAKER_01]: he finds an idol.
[00:52:09] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh my gosh.
[00:52:10] [SPEAKER_00]: All I can say is I'm so happy that we're using pronouns for the majority of
[00:52:14] [SPEAKER_00]: this.
[00:52:15] [SPEAKER_00]: So I can just say you and I don't have to continue to say Gob Don,
[00:52:17] [SPEAKER_00]: Gob Don,
[00:52:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Gob Don.
[00:52:19] [SPEAKER_00]: But I do appreciate it.
[00:52:20] [SPEAKER_00]: The whole legal name.
[00:52:21] [SPEAKER_00]: Well,
[00:52:22] [SPEAKER_00]: you know,
[00:52:22] [SPEAKER_00]: that's what,
[00:52:22] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean,
[00:52:23] [SPEAKER_00]: well,
[00:52:23] [SPEAKER_00]: I guess,
[00:52:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh,
[00:52:24] [SPEAKER_00]: if Jeff calls you by your first name or your last name,
[00:52:27] [SPEAKER_00]: Gob Don is covered because it's going to be Gob Don regardless.
[00:52:30] [SPEAKER_00]: So that's good.
[00:52:31] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm glad that we've,
[00:52:32] [SPEAKER_00]: we figured that out.
[00:52:33] [SPEAKER_02]: Has Jeff ever middle named anybody?
[00:52:36] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh,
[00:52:36] [SPEAKER_01]: that's a good question.
[00:52:37] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm pretty sure there's gotta be at least one survivor contestant that went by
[00:52:43] [SPEAKER_01]: their middle name,
[00:52:44] [SPEAKER_00]: but that was not a job choice because I think what,
[00:52:47] [SPEAKER_00]: what Brando is,
[00:52:49] [SPEAKER_00]: or at least this is how I'm interpreting Brando suggestion is last naming
[00:52:52] [SPEAKER_00]: someone is a compliment to Jeff.
[00:52:55] [SPEAKER_00]: Right.
[00:52:55] [SPEAKER_00]: You know what I mean?
[00:52:56] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:52:56] [SPEAKER_02]: Like a Mariano.
[00:52:58] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[00:52:58] [SPEAKER_02]: Or Cochran.
[00:52:59] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah,
[00:52:59] [SPEAKER_02]: exactly.
[00:53:00] [SPEAKER_00]: It's a last,
[00:53:00] [SPEAKER_00]: last name's a compliment.
[00:53:01] [SPEAKER_00]: So then neutral is first name.
[00:53:05] [SPEAKER_00]: Insult is middle name.
[00:53:06] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh,
[00:53:07] [SPEAKER_01]: I like that.
[00:53:08] [SPEAKER_01]: No,
[00:53:08] [SPEAKER_01]: I think insult is full name.
[00:53:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Like you're in trouble with your parents.
[00:53:11] [SPEAKER_04]: I think first and middle is yeah,
[00:53:13] [SPEAKER_04]: that's,
[00:53:13] [SPEAKER_04]: that's,
[00:53:14] [SPEAKER_04]: you did something wrong.
[00:53:15] [SPEAKER_04]: First middle.
[00:53:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:53:16] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
[00:53:16] [SPEAKER_00]: Well,
[00:53:17] [SPEAKER_00]: we did.
[00:53:17] [SPEAKER_00]: Uh,
[00:53:17] [SPEAKER_00]: I think it was Anika who used Samuel.
[00:53:20] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[00:53:21] [SPEAKER_00]: Well,
[00:53:21] [SPEAKER_00]: Samuel,
[00:53:22] [SPEAKER_00]: that's also,
[00:53:23] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh,
[00:53:23] [SPEAKER_00]: you're in trouble.
[00:53:24] [SPEAKER_02]: Government named.
[00:53:24] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[00:53:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Government named.
[00:53:25] [SPEAKER_00]: Exactly.
[00:53:26] [SPEAKER_02]: Government named.
[00:53:27] [SPEAKER_00]: Um,
[00:53:27] [SPEAKER_00]: okay.
[00:53:28] [SPEAKER_00]: So is there any other backstory you want to add about gob don,
[00:53:31] [SPEAKER_00]: gob don,
[00:53:31] [SPEAKER_00]: gob don,
[00:53:32] [SPEAKER_00]: they are club penguin character.
[00:53:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Um,
[00:53:36] [SPEAKER_04]: is this person,
[00:53:37] [SPEAKER_04]: Liana playing survivor?
[00:53:39] [SPEAKER_04]: Are they in the game?
[00:53:40] [SPEAKER_00]: You're playing survivor.
[00:53:41] [SPEAKER_00]: So as a,
[00:53:42] [SPEAKER_01]: what does gob don times three do?
[00:53:45] [SPEAKER_00]: Exactly.
[00:53:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Like what's his job?
[00:53:47] [SPEAKER_02]: What did you bring?
[00:53:47] [SPEAKER_02]: Like Zamboni driver,
[00:53:49] [SPEAKER_02]: maybe something,
[00:53:50] [SPEAKER_02]: you know,
[00:53:51] [SPEAKER_02]: snow related,
[00:53:51] [SPEAKER_02]: which isn't going to fare well on,
[00:53:53] [SPEAKER_02]: you know,
[00:53:54] [SPEAKER_02]: the beaches of Fiji.
[00:53:55] [SPEAKER_02]: People always clamor for the winter season.
[00:53:57] [SPEAKER_05]: And gob don thought that that's what this is.
[00:54:00] [SPEAKER_01]: As a Zamboni driver.
[00:54:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Gob don came in the full parka.
[00:54:04] [SPEAKER_05]: Gob don was doing the summit.
[00:54:06] [SPEAKER_05]: He,
[00:54:06] [SPEAKER_05]: he did the application.
[00:54:07] [SPEAKER_01]: He actually came on survivor thinking it was the summit.
[00:54:10] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[00:54:11] [SPEAKER_00]: Well,
[00:54:12] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean,
[00:54:13] [SPEAKER_00]: talk about tear away pants.
[00:54:14] [SPEAKER_00]: That would be perfect.
[00:54:16] [SPEAKER_04]: And then Brandon,
[00:54:17] [SPEAKER_04]: how,
[00:54:17] [SPEAKER_04]: how is your,
[00:54:18] [SPEAKER_04]: your grandfather?
[00:54:19] [SPEAKER_04]: Is he,
[00:54:20] [SPEAKER_04]: is he with us?
[00:54:21] [SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
[00:54:22] [SPEAKER_02]: I thought you were going to ask if he's white,
[00:54:23] [SPEAKER_02]: which he's also white.
[00:54:24] [SPEAKER_02]: And then that's,
[00:54:25] [SPEAKER_02]: and that was my next question.
[00:54:25] [SPEAKER_02]: But you probably guessed from Gordon.
[00:54:27] [SPEAKER_02]: How old is he?
[00:54:29] [SPEAKER_05]: Uh,
[00:54:30] [SPEAKER_05]: I couldn't tell you late eighties.
[00:54:31] [SPEAKER_05]: I believe that's what I would like him to be.
[00:54:33] [SPEAKER_05]: There's a God done in this,
[00:54:34] [SPEAKER_05]: in this simulation.
[00:54:36] [SPEAKER_05]: I think we have a man.
[00:54:37] [SPEAKER_05]: Late.
[00:54:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Like a earnest Shackleford.
[00:54:39] [SPEAKER_01]: It's like an 80s.
[00:54:42] [SPEAKER_01]: Like he's discovering Antarctica.
[00:54:45] [SPEAKER_05]: And I,
[00:54:46] [SPEAKER_05]: I wanted,
[00:54:46] [SPEAKER_05]: we,
[00:54:47] [SPEAKER_05]: we don't know specificity how old he is,
[00:54:49] [SPEAKER_05]: but he's saying late eighties and you won't tell anybody the exact.
[00:54:52] [SPEAKER_05]: He's just late eighties.
[00:54:54] [SPEAKER_05]: He could be 90.
[00:54:55] [SPEAKER_05]: We don't know.
[00:54:56] [SPEAKER_00]: God willing.
[00:54:57] [SPEAKER_00]: Uh,
[00:54:57] [SPEAKER_00]: all right.
[00:54:58] [SPEAKER_00]: So we have,
[00:54:59] [SPEAKER_00]: yes,
[00:54:59] [SPEAKER_00]: the approximately 87 year old Zamboni driver.
[00:55:02] [SPEAKER_00]: He says he's 45.
[00:55:03] [SPEAKER_00]: He says he's 45.
[00:55:05] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
[00:55:05] [SPEAKER_00]: Well,
[00:55:05] [SPEAKER_00]: Kyle will fall for it.
[00:55:06] [SPEAKER_00]: It's fine.
[00:55:07] [SPEAKER_00]: Um,
[00:55:07] [SPEAKER_00]: we'll be embarking on this season of survivor.
[00:55:11] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:55:11] [SPEAKER_00]: I think we're ready to start our journey.
[00:55:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Mike,
[00:55:15] [SPEAKER_00]: I've shared with you the screen.
[00:55:17] [SPEAKER_00]: So let's get this started.
[00:55:19] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:55:22] [SPEAKER_00]: I will read to you for those of you who are listening to the audio.
[00:55:26] [SPEAKER_00]: If you're watching the video,
[00:55:27] [SPEAKER_00]: there's a little web-based interface that we're going to play with,
[00:55:30] [SPEAKER_00]: but the choices are yours to make.
[00:55:32] [SPEAKER_00]: God don.
[00:55:33] [SPEAKER_00]: So welcome to survivor 47.
[00:55:36] [SPEAKER_00]: You are one of the newest castaways this season.
[00:55:40] [SPEAKER_00]: It's been a rough few days so far,
[00:55:41] [SPEAKER_00]: but you're still in the game.
[00:55:43] [SPEAKER_00]: As Jeff always says,
[00:55:44] [SPEAKER_00]: this is why you never give up on survivor.
[00:55:47] [SPEAKER_00]: You wake to the light of the sunrise and the noise of some light bickering.
[00:55:51] [SPEAKER_00]: Tensions have been high between Sam and Anika over shelter duties.
[00:55:55] [SPEAKER_00]: You can either intervene or stay out of it.
[00:55:57] [SPEAKER_00]: What do you choose?
[00:56:00] [SPEAKER_00]: So this is up to the two of the three of you.
[00:56:04] [SPEAKER_00]: You can either choose,
[00:56:05] [SPEAKER_00]: uh,
[00:56:06] [SPEAKER_00]: there's obviously God don's decision,
[00:56:08] [SPEAKER_00]: but God don can either intervene to try to mediate between Sam and
[00:56:11] [SPEAKER_00]: Anika to maintain peace or stay out of it.
[00:56:14] [SPEAKER_00]: Focus on your own game and build relationships.
[00:56:16] [SPEAKER_00]: Elsewhere.
[00:56:18] [SPEAKER_00]: What would God don do as a W W G G G G G late 80s Zamboni driver?
[00:56:26] [SPEAKER_00]: What would God don do?
[00:56:28] [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like a late 80s Zamboni driver is going to be off doing his own thing.
[00:56:31] [SPEAKER_02]: Surely.
[00:56:32] [SPEAKER_02]: Right.
[00:56:32] [SPEAKER_02]: For better or for worse.
[00:56:34] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah,
[00:56:34] [SPEAKER_04]: I would agree with that.
[00:56:35] [SPEAKER_04]: He's trying to clock into work.
[00:56:37] [SPEAKER_04]: He's trying to find that Zamboni.
[00:56:39] [SPEAKER_04]: Um,
[00:56:39] [SPEAKER_04]: I just wonder though,
[00:56:41] [SPEAKER_04]: like,
[00:56:41] [SPEAKER_04]: are we on this tribe?
[00:56:42] [SPEAKER_04]: Are we,
[00:56:43] [SPEAKER_04]: are we a new person on the tribe?
[00:56:45] [SPEAKER_04]: Or Sam,
[00:56:45] [SPEAKER_04]: Sierra and Andy also with us,
[00:56:48] [SPEAKER_04]: or we don't get to know that.
[00:56:49] [SPEAKER_04]: It's like the circle where they brought someone new in.
[00:56:51] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[00:56:52] [SPEAKER_00]: God,
[00:56:52] [SPEAKER_00]: that's just like always been there.
[00:56:54] [SPEAKER_00]: You know,
[00:56:55] [SPEAKER_00]: God is an enigma.
[00:56:56] [SPEAKER_04]: He's an institution.
[00:56:57] [SPEAKER_00]: He's an institution.
[00:56:58] [SPEAKER_00]: He just exists on survivor.
[00:57:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:57:01] [SPEAKER_04]: I do like the,
[00:57:02] [SPEAKER_04]: the building relationships elsewhere.
[00:57:04] [SPEAKER_04]: Um,
[00:57:04] [SPEAKER_04]: but I do also like the idea of this 80 something year old man trying to mediate and not knowing
[00:57:09] [SPEAKER_04]: what the fight is about and trying to just,
[00:57:11] [SPEAKER_04]: just articulate on what he thinks it's about.
[00:57:13] [SPEAKER_04]: Um,
[00:57:13] [SPEAKER_04]: I think that's interesting to me,
[00:57:15] [SPEAKER_04]: but I do think for the longevity of God,
[00:57:17] [SPEAKER_04]: I do think probably focusing on your own thing makes the most sense.
[00:57:21] [SPEAKER_04]: Swoop in at the end.
[00:57:22] [SPEAKER_04]: You know what I mean?
[00:57:23] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah,
[00:57:23] [SPEAKER_04]: exactly.
[00:57:23] [SPEAKER_04]: Swoop in and,
[00:57:24] [SPEAKER_04]: and,
[00:57:24] [SPEAKER_04]: and figure it out right an hour before tribal.
[00:57:26] [SPEAKER_04]: Right.
[00:57:26] [SPEAKER_04]: Reveal that you're not 45 years old at final tribal council.
[00:57:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Exactly.
[00:57:30] [SPEAKER_00]: Mm-hmm.
[00:57:31] [SPEAKER_01]: All right.
[00:57:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[00:57:32] [SPEAKER_01]: I'll three for three.
[00:57:33] [SPEAKER_01]: Let's,
[00:57:33] [SPEAKER_01]: let's stay out of it.
[00:57:34] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:57:34] [SPEAKER_00]: So we're going to stay out of it.
[00:57:37] [SPEAKER_00]: No way,
[00:57:38] [SPEAKER_00]: Jose.
[00:57:40] [SPEAKER_00]: That's obviously what God done sound like.
[00:57:42] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm staying out of this.
[00:57:43] [SPEAKER_00]: You think to yourself,
[00:57:45] [SPEAKER_00]: instead you wander down the path towards the water.
[00:57:47] [SPEAKER_00]: Well,
[00:57:47] [SPEAKER_00]: to look for shelter supplies,
[00:57:48] [SPEAKER_00]: you see Andy in the distance.
[00:57:50] [SPEAKER_00]: He's been having a tough time fitting in and you sense an opportunity.
[00:57:53] [SPEAKER_01]: There we go.
[00:57:54] [SPEAKER_00]: What do you choose?
[00:57:56] [SPEAKER_00]: Do you offer to help Andy offer him support,
[00:57:59] [SPEAKER_00]: build an alliance with him or ignore Andy?
[00:58:01] [SPEAKER_00]: He's at the bottom.
[00:58:02] [SPEAKER_00]: That does me no good.
[00:58:03] [SPEAKER_00]: I should keep exploring the jungle.
[00:58:07] [SPEAKER_02]: I mean,
[00:58:07] [SPEAKER_02]: look late eighties,
[00:58:09] [SPEAKER_02]: you know,
[00:58:09] [SPEAKER_02]: Zamboni driver is probably giving a lot of unsolicited advice,
[00:58:12] [SPEAKER_02]: right?
[00:58:13] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh yeah.
[00:58:14] [SPEAKER_02]: Sure.
[00:58:15] [SPEAKER_02]: So I could see a world where we're helping Andy.
[00:58:17] [SPEAKER_02]: I don't know what everyone else thinks.
[00:58:19] [SPEAKER_05]: I do think if we wanted to speed run,
[00:58:20] [SPEAKER_05]: getting voted out,
[00:58:21] [SPEAKER_05]: we just ignore everybody on the drive.
[00:58:24] [SPEAKER_03]: Keep walking.
[00:58:25] [SPEAKER_01]: Keep on walking.
[00:58:27] [SPEAKER_01]: I know.
[00:58:27] [SPEAKER_01]: I,
[00:58:27] [SPEAKER_01]: I think that look,
[00:58:29] [SPEAKER_01]: this,
[00:58:29] [SPEAKER_01]: this man is used to driving by himself.
[00:58:33] [SPEAKER_01]: Perhaps it's time he picked up a bit of a co-pilot.
[00:58:35] [SPEAKER_01]: I think Andy could be the lifeline or he could be the lifeline to Andy in this time of need.
[00:58:42] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:58:43] [SPEAKER_00]: You're choosing,
[00:58:44] [SPEAKER_00]: or sorry,
[00:58:45] [SPEAKER_00]: gobbed on is choosing to help Andy.
[00:58:49] [SPEAKER_00]: Hey Andy,
[00:58:50] [SPEAKER_00]: you call out.
[00:58:52] [SPEAKER_00]: How are you feeling,
[00:58:53] [SPEAKER_00]: bud?
[00:58:54] [SPEAKER_00]: Wow,
[00:58:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Liana,
[00:58:55] [SPEAKER_01]: you nailed the tone of this.
[00:58:56] [SPEAKER_01]: You didn't even know that this would be an octogenarian,
[00:58:58] [SPEAKER_01]: but really you've got it down.
[00:59:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Well,
[00:59:00] [SPEAKER_00]: it's because he's putting on his 45 year old voice.
[00:59:03] [SPEAKER_00]: So I'm just trying to do the best 45 year old impression that I can do.
[00:59:07] [SPEAKER_00]: You know what I mean?
[00:59:08] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:59:09] [SPEAKER_00]: Andy takes a deep breath and begins to pour his heart out,
[00:59:12] [SPEAKER_00]: sharing his feelings and anxieties about this grueling experience.
[00:59:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Seems he's really opening up to you,
[00:59:18] [SPEAKER_00]: revealing vulnerabilities you never knew he had.
[00:59:20] [SPEAKER_00]: You comfort him,
[00:59:22] [SPEAKER_00]: assuring him that everything will be all right.
[00:59:25] [SPEAKER_00]: But as he looks into your eyes,
[00:59:26] [SPEAKER_00]: a shadow crosses his face.
[00:59:28] [SPEAKER_00]: Mark my words,
[00:59:29] [SPEAKER_00]: he says ominously.
[00:59:30] [SPEAKER_00]: I will never forget this.
[00:59:32] [SPEAKER_00]: The weight of his words hangs in the air,
[00:59:34] [SPEAKER_00]: leaving an unsettling feeling that something profound is about to unfold.
[00:59:39] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[00:59:40] [SPEAKER_00]: Sounds good,
[00:59:40] [SPEAKER_00]: buddy.
[00:59:41] [SPEAKER_00]: You reply and head off into the jungle feeling somewhat rattled.
[00:59:46] [SPEAKER_00]: You don't have a choice here.
[00:59:47] [SPEAKER_00]: You just have to go further into the trees.
[00:59:50] [SPEAKER_05]: God's not made it at 87 years of life.
[00:59:52] [SPEAKER_05]: And he's about to get killed by Andy.
[00:59:54] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what.
[00:59:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Andy's going to come at him with his gesticulating saw and cut off his head.
[01:00:01] [SPEAKER_00]: If only Sabaya had left.
[01:00:04] [SPEAKER_00]: If only John Lovett had left with the machete,
[01:00:06] [SPEAKER_00]: then maybe we wouldn't be in such predicament.
[01:00:08] [SPEAKER_05]: He's going to try to solve wrong first.
[01:00:11] [SPEAKER_05]: Exactly.
[01:00:11] [SPEAKER_01]: You're going to feel a nice dull blade on the back of your neck at night.
[01:00:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Am I getting a haircut?
[01:00:17] [SPEAKER_02]: Speaking of,
[01:00:18] [SPEAKER_02]: has everyone mentioned Brandon Donlan's new haircut yet?
[01:00:21] [SPEAKER_02]: Looks fantastic.
[01:00:22] [SPEAKER_02]: Is he a little spin?
[01:00:23] [SPEAKER_02]: Can we get a spin for the...
[01:00:25] [SPEAKER_02]: Wow, look at that.
[01:00:26] [SPEAKER_02]: Look at that.
[01:00:28] [SPEAKER_02]: Wow.
[01:00:31] [SPEAKER_00]: Back to Gobdaw.
[01:00:33] [SPEAKER_00]: We're going to go further into the trees.
[01:00:36] [SPEAKER_00]: You decide to go further into the trees when you spot a suspicious looking log on the ground.
[01:00:41] [SPEAKER_00]: As you approach, the log seems oddly out of place.
[01:00:44] [SPEAKER_00]: Curiosity peeks you, kneel down and inspect it more closely.
[01:00:47] [SPEAKER_00]: There's a small latch on the side that looks like it hasn't been touched in ages.
[01:00:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I know he's a weird old man, but no dad feeling.
[01:00:56] [SPEAKER_00]: With a mix of excitement.
[01:01:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, no.
[01:01:03] [SPEAKER_05]: Oh, no.
[01:01:05] [SPEAKER_05]: We're gov-go.
[01:01:06] [SPEAKER_00]: With a mix of excitement and trepidation, I mean, you reach for the latch and pull it open.
[01:01:11] [SPEAKER_00]: In an instant, the log erupts in a shower of bright red paint.
[01:01:15] [SPEAKER_00]: The vibrant color splatters everywhere across your clothes, your face, and even the surrounding trees.
[01:01:20] [SPEAKER_00]: You gasp in shock as the paint drips down, pooling around you like a crimson puddle.
[01:01:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Before you can do anything about the mess, you hear someone coming down to the path.
[01:01:29] [SPEAKER_00]: What should you do?
[01:01:30] [SPEAKER_00]: Play dead or run and grab a chicken are your two options.
[01:01:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so the two choices are you either pretend that you have been brutally injured or you pretend that you've murdered an animal.
[01:01:45] [SPEAKER_04]: You know, if you're 80s and then years old, the early onset is probably already there.
[01:01:49] [SPEAKER_04]: You can feign ignorance very easily.
[01:01:51] [SPEAKER_04]: You can be like, I don't know how this got here either.
[01:01:53] [SPEAKER_04]: I am intrigued by playing dead.
[01:01:56] [SPEAKER_04]: I think playing dead.
[01:01:57] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm curious of what happens to you.
[01:01:58] [SPEAKER_01]: What I'm nervous about here is if you get medevaced.
[01:02:00] [SPEAKER_01]: Is it to look at you and think that you're dead?
[01:02:02] [SPEAKER_05]: Sure.
[01:02:03] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, yeah.
[01:02:03] [SPEAKER_05]: We've killed Leona also.
[01:02:05] [SPEAKER_05]: For audio listeners, Leona is viciously choking on something.
[01:02:09] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm dying.
[01:02:09] [SPEAKER_00]: On water.
[01:02:10] [SPEAKER_00]: I should lay down.
[01:02:11] [SPEAKER_02]: For the audio listeners, Brandon keeps pointing at his hair every time he talks for some reason.
[01:02:16] [SPEAKER_00]: Guys, focus up.
[01:02:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Focus up.
[01:02:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Point to the hair.
[01:02:19] [SPEAKER_04]: I think, okay, I agree with the medevaced of it all.
[01:02:22] [SPEAKER_04]: Running and grabbing a chicken.
[01:02:24] [SPEAKER_04]: Also, I can't imagine he's the fastest runner in the world, but I would go running.
[01:02:29] [SPEAKER_01]: I would say grab.
[01:02:30] [SPEAKER_01]: I think the chicken should be interesting.
[01:02:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[01:02:32] [SPEAKER_00]: So you're going to run and grab a chicken.
[01:02:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Before you can do anything about the mess, a desperate idea strikes you.
[01:02:40] [SPEAKER_00]: You sprint towards the chickens, grab one, and return to the paint-covered path.
[01:02:44] [SPEAKER_00]: Just as Sierra and Rachel round the corner, you pretend to be in the midst of a clumsy
[01:02:48] [SPEAKER_00]: slaughter.
[01:02:49] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm so sorry, you shout, fainting distress.
[01:02:52] [SPEAKER_00]: I was trying to get us some food, but it all went wrong.
[01:02:55] [SPEAKER_00]: Sierra and Rachel stare in shock, their eyes darting between you, the frantic chicken, and
[01:03:00] [SPEAKER_00]: the sea of red paint.
[01:03:01] [SPEAKER_00]: What have you done?
[01:03:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Rachel cries out, her voice a mix of horror and disbelief.
[01:03:05] [SPEAKER_00]: The chicken, unharmed but thoroughly annoyed, flaps its wings, spreading more paint around.
[01:03:10] [SPEAKER_00]: We need to trade them, Sierra yells.
[01:03:13] [SPEAKER_00]: I can't deal with this anymore.
[01:03:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Thankfully, before any more discussion can be had about the chicken situation, it's time
[01:03:19] [SPEAKER_00]: to leave for the immunity challenge.
[01:03:21] [SPEAKER_01]: Wait, I'm very confused.
[01:03:22] [SPEAKER_01]: So what did they assume happened to the chicken if it's just flapping around fancy-free?
[01:03:27] [SPEAKER_00]: Well, they didn't think much of it, apparently.
[01:03:30] [SPEAKER_02]: I like the image of them rolling up to tribal council with this chicken that is just spattered
[01:03:34] [SPEAKER_02]: in blood and severely maimed, asking if they can trade it for something else.
[01:03:39] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[01:03:40] [SPEAKER_05]: The same reason you can't wear something from Kohl's if you've bled in it.
[01:03:43] [SPEAKER_05]: You can't really give back chicken if you've also kind of bled around.
[01:03:46] [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe it was something where it's like they could claim like, oh, we got covered in red
[01:03:50] [SPEAKER_01]: paint.
[01:03:50] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, that should be a claim as well.
[01:03:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, oh, I got covered by protesters.
[01:03:54] [SPEAKER_01]: I was trying to kill the chicken.
[01:03:55] [SPEAKER_01]: And then Kita was out here.
[01:03:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[01:03:57] [SPEAKER_01]: That's what happened.
[01:03:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Covered me in paint.
[01:03:59] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[01:04:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[01:04:00] [SPEAKER_00]: We'll go with that.
[01:04:01] [SPEAKER_00]: We'll ad-lib that in when we get to the immunity challenge.
[01:04:05] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[01:04:06] [SPEAKER_00]: So you and your tribe enter the immunity challenge arena prepared for whatever fresh
[01:04:11] [SPEAKER_00]: hell Jeff has in store for you today.
[01:04:13] [SPEAKER_00]: However, there's other business to attend to first.
[01:04:15] [SPEAKER_00]: It's time to talk chicken.
[01:04:17] [SPEAKER_00]: We want to trade our chickens for something better.
[01:04:19] [SPEAKER_00]: We're thinking eggs.
[01:04:21] [SPEAKER_00]: How about 24?
[01:04:22] [SPEAKER_00]: Sam chimes in.
[01:04:23] [SPEAKER_00]: He and Jeff go back and forth before Jeff makes a shocking offer.
[01:04:27] [SPEAKER_00]: I'll give you the 24 eggs, but you need to give me the chickens and one of your own
[01:04:32] [SPEAKER_00]: tribe mates to give to Lavo.
[01:04:34] [SPEAKER_00]: You were talking about trading Saul earlier.
[01:04:37] [SPEAKER_00]: Might have to trade somebody else here.
[01:04:39] [SPEAKER_00]: Everyone's jaws dropped to the floor.
[01:04:41] [SPEAKER_00]: The general consensus seems to be to give away Andy, but maybe you should step forward.
[01:04:45] [SPEAKER_00]: You have three options here.
[01:04:47] [SPEAKER_00]: Gobdon can either suggest Andy.
[01:04:49] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, we were all thinking it volunteer.
[01:04:52] [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe I should go myself or reject the deal.
[01:04:55] [SPEAKER_00]: Everyone is needed on GADA.
[01:04:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh man.
[01:04:59] [SPEAKER_00]: Big decision here.
[01:05:02] [SPEAKER_04]: I have, I have something, but I know I don't want to speak for the floor.
[01:05:06] [SPEAKER_04]: No, go for it.
[01:05:08] [SPEAKER_04]: I am interested.
[01:05:10] [SPEAKER_04]: If this, if this choose your adventure, we want to maximize meeting everybody and somebody's
[01:05:15] [SPEAKER_04]: going to go to Lavo.
[01:05:16] [SPEAKER_04]: I do think it should be us.
[01:05:18] [SPEAKER_04]: I completely agree.
[01:05:19] [SPEAKER_01]: That's what I'm thinking as well.
[01:05:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[01:05:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Let's go meet Rome.
[01:05:22] [SPEAKER_01]: Plus like, listen, to be fair, this gob done at this point thinks Andy is going to murder
[01:05:28] [SPEAKER_01]: him.
[01:05:29] [SPEAKER_01]: And also he got caught with a chicken covered in red paint.
[01:05:33] [SPEAKER_01]: So like, I think right now is the good time to cash out and leave the table and try something
[01:05:39] [SPEAKER_01]: else.
[01:05:40] [SPEAKER_02]: I agree.
[01:05:40] [SPEAKER_02]: All right.
[01:05:41] [SPEAKER_02]: I think we volunteer.
[01:05:42] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[01:05:42] [SPEAKER_00]: So you're going to volunteer.
[01:05:44] [SPEAKER_00]: Everyone looks around awkwardly, but most stares go to Andy.
[01:05:48] [SPEAKER_00]: You hear Rachel take a breath and begin to speak, but you cut her off before she can suggest
[01:05:52] [SPEAKER_00]: that Andy goes.
[01:05:53] [SPEAKER_00]: I'll go to Lavo instead of Andy.
[01:05:55] [SPEAKER_00]: The tribe stares at you in shock.
[01:05:57] [SPEAKER_00]: Are you sure?
[01:05:58] [SPEAKER_00]: Sam asks concern at Sean his face.
[01:06:01] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
[01:06:01] [SPEAKER_00]: You reply.
[01:06:02] [SPEAKER_00]: I want to give him a chance to stay.
[01:06:04] [SPEAKER_00]: You could, you also think this could be an opportunity to form new alliances before
[01:06:08] [SPEAKER_00]: the merge.
[01:06:09] [SPEAKER_00]: I'll never forget what you did for me.
[01:06:11] [SPEAKER_00]: Andy whispers in your ear as you walk over to Lavo.
[01:06:14] [SPEAKER_01]: No, there's a, there's a certain adverb in there, Liana that you skipped over.
[01:06:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Sensually.
[01:06:19] [SPEAKER_00]: Sorry.
[01:06:19] [SPEAKER_00]: Whispers sensually in your ear as you walk over to Lavo.
[01:06:23] [SPEAKER_00]: The immunity challenge starts and Gata is moving really slowly on cutting the rope part
[01:06:27] [SPEAKER_00]: of the challenge.
[01:06:28] [SPEAKER_00]: Could Andy be throwing this challenge to protect you?
[01:06:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Andy's early misstep causes Gata to lose, saving you from tribal council.
[01:06:36] [SPEAKER_00]: As you leave the arena, you swear you saw a wink from Andy.
[01:06:40] [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe him say, maybe saving him save you after all.
[01:06:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Wow.
[01:06:46] [SPEAKER_00]: The end.
[01:06:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[01:06:48] [SPEAKER_01]: Wow.
[01:06:48] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[01:06:49] [SPEAKER_01]: You not getting voted out.
[01:06:51] [SPEAKER_00]: You didn't get voted out.
[01:06:52] [SPEAKER_00]: Yep.
[01:06:53] [SPEAKER_00]: That's a very happy ending.
[01:06:54] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
[01:06:55] [SPEAKER_00]: Um, so well done.
[01:06:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Gob Don.
[01:06:58] [SPEAKER_01]: We did.
[01:06:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Should we, should we try another universe for Gob Don?
[01:07:01] [SPEAKER_00]: So you can't, we can go back if you want to change your decision here to, or we can restart
[01:07:08] [SPEAKER_00]: at the beginning.
[01:07:08] [SPEAKER_00]: Those are your options.
[01:07:10] [SPEAKER_00]: What do you guys think?
[01:07:12] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, do you want to, you want to see him get messy?
[01:07:14] [SPEAKER_01]: You want to see him try to intervene in this, in the Sam and Annika argument?
[01:07:17] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[01:07:17] [SPEAKER_02]: I would love to.
[01:07:18] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[01:07:18] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[01:07:18] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[01:07:19] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm curious if we end up back here.
[01:07:22] [SPEAKER_00]: Uh, all right.
[01:07:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[01:07:26] [SPEAKER_00]: So blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
[01:07:28] [SPEAKER_00]: Tensions have been high.
[01:07:29] [SPEAKER_00]: What do you choose to do?
[01:07:30] [SPEAKER_00]: Intervene.
[01:07:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Intervene.
[01:07:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[01:07:32] [SPEAKER_00]: So Gob Don.
[01:07:35] [SPEAKER_00]: You decide to intervene in the conflict between Sam and Annika over shelter duties.
[01:07:39] [SPEAKER_00]: As you approach them, you can see the tension in their body language.
[01:07:42] [SPEAKER_00]: Hey guys, you say, trying to sound casual.
[01:07:46] [SPEAKER_00]: I couldn't help it over here.
[01:07:47] [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe I could help mediate the situation.
[01:07:50] [SPEAKER_00]: Sam looks at you skeptically while Annika seems relieved that someone else has stepped
[01:07:53] [SPEAKER_00]: in.
[01:07:54] [SPEAKER_00]: How do you propose to solve this conflict?
[01:07:56] [SPEAKER_00]: Do you either agree with Sam?
[01:07:59] [SPEAKER_00]: I think our time would be better spent getting food.
[01:08:02] [SPEAKER_00]: I agree with Annika.
[01:08:03] [SPEAKER_00]: Let's quickly gather more bamboo to improve the shelter or screw this stupid shelter.
[01:08:08] [SPEAKER_00]: Let's just burn it down.
[01:08:13] [SPEAKER_05]: I know what I'm voting for.
[01:08:14] [SPEAKER_05]: I think the fun option.
[01:08:16] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
[01:08:16] [SPEAKER_05]: I think we all know what the fun option is here.
[01:08:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[01:08:19] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm gathering the fun option.
[01:08:21] [SPEAKER_00]: Not gathering bamboo, but burning it down.
[01:08:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Seems to be the option that we're leaning towards.
[01:08:26] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[01:08:27] [SPEAKER_00]: So we burn it down.
[01:08:29] [SPEAKER_00]: Burn it down.
[01:08:31] [SPEAKER_00]: Burn it down.
[01:08:32] [SPEAKER_00]: You begin to chant.
[01:08:33] [SPEAKER_00]: Before the rest of your tribe can stop you, you grab a burning piece of wood from the
[01:08:37] [SPEAKER_00]: fire.
[01:08:37] [SPEAKER_00]: Burn it down.
[01:08:39] [SPEAKER_00]: Burn it down.
[01:08:40] [SPEAKER_00]: You continue to chant.
[01:08:41] [SPEAKER_00]: Your tribe mates, production, and the entire crew are in shock at your actions.
[01:08:45] [SPEAKER_00]: Before they have time to react, you've tossed several burning logs into the shelter.
[01:08:49] [SPEAKER_00]: The palm fronds are quickly set ablaze, which lights the rest of the shelter.
[01:08:52] [SPEAKER_00]: You cheer loudly, jumping up.
[01:08:54] [SPEAKER_00]: Enjoy.
[01:08:55] [SPEAKER_00]: Burn it down.
[01:08:56] [SPEAKER_00]: You chant one more time before security takes you down into the sand.
[01:09:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Security?
[01:09:02] [SPEAKER_00]: You're disqualified from the game and removed for a radically dangerous base.
[01:09:08] Wait.
[01:09:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Are there like the challenge?
[01:09:11] [SPEAKER_01]: Are there just like a bunch of goons standing around ready to tackle you?
[01:09:16] [SPEAKER_05]: The YX laws for this episode would be crazy.
[01:09:20] [SPEAKER_05]: I don't know how David's going to use this in the rules.
[01:09:23] [SPEAKER_00]: I just love the idea of this specifically being Gobd on now.
[01:09:27] [SPEAKER_00]: Like, the idea.
[01:09:29] [SPEAKER_00]: The lady.
[01:09:30] [SPEAKER_00]: This old.
[01:09:30] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[01:09:31] [SPEAKER_01]: This old.
[01:09:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Burn it down.
[01:09:34] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, where was Gobd on on January 6th?
[01:09:37] [SPEAKER_01]: That's all I'm saying.
[01:09:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh my God.
[01:09:40] [SPEAKER_05]: You know where he was.
[01:09:42] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh no.
[01:09:45] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, okay.
[01:09:47] [SPEAKER_00]: All right.
[01:09:48] [SPEAKER_01]: Wow.
[01:09:49] [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, that's what you did.
[01:09:51] [SPEAKER_00]: So if you're interested in doing anything else, you have your options.
[01:09:59] [SPEAKER_01]: You want to take Anika's side this time?
[01:10:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Let's take Anika's side.
[01:10:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, let's take Anika.
[01:10:03] [SPEAKER_01]: Let's do her the service.
[01:10:04] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[01:10:05] [SPEAKER_00]: I agree with Anika.
[01:10:06] [SPEAKER_00]: Let's quickly gather more bamboo to improve the shelter.
[01:10:09] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[01:10:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Burn it down.
[01:10:11] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[01:10:12] [SPEAKER_00]: So, okay.
[01:10:13] [SPEAKER_00]: So you propose, okay.
[01:10:14] [SPEAKER_00]: You propose gathering more supplies to help improve the shelter.
[01:10:16] [SPEAKER_00]: Sam annoyed by your suggestion.
[01:10:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Reluctantly agrees.
[01:10:19] [SPEAKER_00]: I'll go down to the beach.
[01:10:20] [SPEAKER_00]: If you go into the jungle, you bound off into the jungle down the path towards the water.
[01:10:24] [SPEAKER_00]: While you see Andy in the distance.
[01:10:26] [SPEAKER_00]: Now, this is the same choice as before.
[01:10:28] [SPEAKER_00]: Do you want to help Andy or did this time?
[01:10:30] [SPEAKER_00]: Do you want to ignore Andy?
[01:10:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Screw him.
[01:10:33] [SPEAKER_01]: Who needs him?
[01:10:34] [SPEAKER_00]: Ignore Andy.
[01:10:35] [SPEAKER_00]: He's the bottom.
[01:10:35] [SPEAKER_00]: That does me no good.
[01:10:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Also, you know, you're still thinking about the burning down the shelter.
[01:10:41] [SPEAKER_00]: It's a lot of stuff.
[01:10:42] [SPEAKER_00]: You don't have time to talk to Andy.
[01:10:43] [SPEAKER_00]: So you ignore Andy and turn your focus back to the jungle.
[01:10:47] [SPEAKER_00]: You know what?
[01:10:48] [SPEAKER_00]: You think to yourself, screw supplies.
[01:10:50] [SPEAKER_00]: There must be an idol somewhere out here.
[01:10:52] [SPEAKER_00]: All you can hear is the sound of your own footsteps crushing leaves and branches as your
[01:10:57] [SPEAKER_00]: eyes dart around the trees and rocks.
[01:10:58] [SPEAKER_00]: You don't see anything in your immediate vicinity.
[01:11:01] [SPEAKER_00]: Perhaps you should explore elsewhere.
[01:11:03] [SPEAKER_00]: So do you go to the rock wall or go further into the trees?
[01:11:06] [SPEAKER_02]: I have a theory that if we go further into the trees, we're going to get Nickelodeon
[01:11:09] [SPEAKER_02]: slimed again.
[01:11:10] [SPEAKER_02]: So I think we go to the rock wall this time.
[01:11:12] [SPEAKER_01]: Go to the rock wall.
[01:11:12] [SPEAKER_01]: I want Gabe's falling box to knock him out.
[01:11:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[01:11:16] [SPEAKER_00]: So let's go to the rock wall.
[01:11:18] [SPEAKER_00]: You decide to go to the rock wall.
[01:11:20] [SPEAKER_00]: When you arrive, you feel the energy of a hidden immunity idol calling out to you.
[01:11:23] [SPEAKER_00]: You spot a narrow crevice in the rock wall.
[01:11:26] [SPEAKER_00]: That must be it.
[01:11:27] [SPEAKER_00]: You think to yourself, squeezing through the tight opening.
[01:11:29] [SPEAKER_00]: Inside, the air is cool and still, illuminated by a faint glimmer at the far end.
[01:11:34] [SPEAKER_00]: The idol, you think excitedly.
[01:11:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Just as you reach for it, a deafening rumble echoes through the crevice.
[01:11:40] [SPEAKER_00]: The ground shakes violently.
[01:11:41] [SPEAKER_00]: And before you can react, rocks begin to tumble down around you.
[01:11:45] [SPEAKER_00]: You dash towards the exit, but it's too late.
[01:11:48] [SPEAKER_00]: A massive boulder crashes into place behind you, sealing you in.
[01:11:52] [SPEAKER_00]: Trapped beneath the layers of stone, you realize that this will be your tomb.
[01:11:57] [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe some treasures were never meant to be found.
[01:12:01] [SPEAKER_00]: Wow.
[01:12:03] [SPEAKER_00]: Jesus Christ.
[01:12:04] [SPEAKER_01]: You're like something dark.
[01:12:06] [SPEAKER_01]: This poor old man.
[01:12:08] [SPEAKER_00]: It's so sad, especially because he's old.
[01:12:12] [SPEAKER_00]: I haven't been sad either way, but I think this is the only death outcome.
[01:12:17] [SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, the other one just included you burning down, committing arson.
[01:12:22] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[01:12:25] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, okay, so yeah, let me, I'm just going to help guide us a little bit.
[01:12:29] [SPEAKER_00]: So we're going to, okay, we're not going to play dead because, so with the log getting
[01:12:34] [SPEAKER_00]: Nickelodeon slimed, if you play dead, you do get medivac'd.
[01:12:37] [SPEAKER_00]: Because they think that you're dead.
[01:12:39] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and then essentially, so what I wrote was that as you're carefully lifted onto the
[01:12:44] [SPEAKER_00]: stretcher, your social anxiety kicks into overdrive, forcing you to commit to the charade
[01:12:47] [SPEAKER_00]: instead of coming clean.
[01:12:49] [SPEAKER_00]: So anyway, you get, you get medically evacuated.
[01:12:52] [SPEAKER_00]: So, okay, let's try to get to the, okay, so you are going to, all right, so you're going
[01:12:57] [SPEAKER_00]: to go to the scheduler.
[01:12:57] [SPEAKER_00]: All right, so you can either suggest Andy or reject the deal.
[01:13:03] [SPEAKER_00]: So we're now back at tribal council where Jeff is asking if you would like to volunteer
[01:13:08] [SPEAKER_00]: to trade somebody.
[01:13:10] [SPEAKER_00]: Mm-hmm.
[01:13:11] [SPEAKER_00]: So I would like to give you the option to either suggest Andy or you could reject the
[01:13:19] [SPEAKER_00]: deal, which will get us into the second part of the story.
[01:13:23] [SPEAKER_02]: Do we want to channel our inner, our inner Dondi here and reject the deal?
[01:13:30] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, no deal.
[01:13:31] [SPEAKER_00]: No deal.
[01:13:32] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, let's do that.
[01:13:33] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[01:13:34] [SPEAKER_00]: Reject the deal.
[01:13:35] [SPEAKER_00]: Everyone is needed on Gata.
[01:13:37] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[01:13:38] [SPEAKER_00]: No deal, Jeff word.
[01:13:39] [SPEAKER_00]: You say this tribe.
[01:13:41] [SPEAKER_01]: That sounds like some sort of swear.
[01:13:45] [SPEAKER_02]: I don't think you can say that on a podcast.
[01:13:48] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, that's why Saul says fart.
[01:13:52] [SPEAKER_00]: This tribe sticks together through thick and thin.
[01:13:54] [SPEAKER_00]: The rest of your tribe seems a bit annoyed with you over your brash decision, apart from
[01:13:58] [SPEAKER_00]: Andy, who seems thankful for your support.
[01:14:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Looks like it's not a unanimous decision.
[01:14:02] [SPEAKER_00]: So no deal.
[01:14:04] [SPEAKER_00]: Jeff says with the ferocity of Howard Mandel.
[01:14:06] [SPEAKER_00]: Well, a bit shaken, you proceed to the immunity challenge.
[01:14:09] [SPEAKER_00]: Your tribe performs well throughout the physical portion of the challenge with Anika, the ace
[01:14:14] [SPEAKER_00]: puzzle wizard sitting out.
[01:14:15] [SPEAKER_00]: You are on puzzle.
[01:14:17] [SPEAKER_00]: Rachel hands you two puzzle pieces.
[01:14:19] [SPEAKER_00]: Which one do you take?
[01:14:21] [SPEAKER_00]: Right hand piece or her left hand?
[01:14:23] [SPEAKER_00]: So the piece she's holding in her right hand or the piece she's holding in her left hand.
[01:14:28] [SPEAKER_04]: I am left handed.
[01:14:30] [SPEAKER_04]: And I think my impulse would be to do the opposite of what I want to do in the challenge.
[01:14:33] [SPEAKER_04]: So I think that right might be.
[01:14:35] [SPEAKER_04]: I think that's the right decision.
[01:14:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Because she is.
[01:14:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Assuming she's right handed, she would hand the piece to that she wants you to use.
[01:14:40] [SPEAKER_01]: And I trust Rachel's judgment over the memory of a man that was born during World War II.
[01:14:49] [SPEAKER_00]: All right.
[01:14:50] [SPEAKER_00]: So Gobdon takes the piece in the right hand.
[01:14:53] [SPEAKER_00]: You reach for the piece in her right hand and try to fit into the puzzle.
[01:14:56] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh my God, it's comprehensive.
[01:14:57] [SPEAKER_00]: Not working.
[01:14:57] [SPEAKER_00]: What should you try next?
[01:14:59] [SPEAKER_00]: Do you turn the piece to the right or do you turn the piece to the left?
[01:15:02] [SPEAKER_00]: So 90 degrees to the right or 90 degrees to the left?
[01:15:06] [SPEAKER_02]: Do we stick to our guns?
[01:15:08] [SPEAKER_02]: Do we go right again?
[01:15:11] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I think.
[01:15:13] [SPEAKER_00]: What do you think, Mike?
[01:15:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, let's do it.
[01:15:16] [SPEAKER_02]: Right was the wrong choice the first time.
[01:15:18] [SPEAKER_02]: What are the odds of the wrong choice twice in a row?
[01:15:20] [SPEAKER_00]: You turn the piece right.
[01:15:24] [SPEAKER_00]: You turn the piece to the right, but it still doesn't fit.
[01:15:26] [SPEAKER_00]: What do you do?
[01:15:27] [SPEAKER_00]: Try it again.
[01:15:28] [SPEAKER_00]: This time it has to work or turn it upside down.
[01:15:31] [SPEAKER_04]: Turn it upside down.
[01:15:32] [SPEAKER_04]: Turn it upside down.
[01:15:32] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, we don't want to try it again.
[01:15:35] [SPEAKER_00]: You turn the piece upside down, but it still doesn't fit.
[01:15:38] [SPEAKER_00]: What's going on?
[01:15:40] [SPEAKER_00]: Do you try it again or do you try it on the other side of the puzzle?
[01:15:45] [SPEAKER_04]: I have a hard time believing again is going to work.
[01:15:48] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
[01:15:48] [SPEAKER_04]: Am I alone in that?
[01:15:49] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, I think.
[01:15:50] [SPEAKER_04]: But it's there for a reason, surely.
[01:15:54] [SPEAKER_01]: No, I think it's going to be Liana being like,
[01:15:55] [SPEAKER_01]: what are you talking about?
[01:15:56] [SPEAKER_01]: You just didn't fit over here.
[01:15:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Go to the other side of the puzzle.
[01:15:59] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I think other side.
[01:16:00] [SPEAKER_04]: Let's do the other side.
[01:16:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay, try it on the other side of the puzzle.
[01:16:03] [SPEAKER_00]: You try it on the other side of the puzzle.
[01:16:06] [SPEAKER_00]: Before you can even attempt to place the piece,
[01:16:08] [SPEAKER_00]: the other two tribes finish their puzzle,
[01:16:10] [SPEAKER_00]: sending Gata to tribal council.
[01:16:13] [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe you should have volunteered to go to Lavo.
[01:16:17] [SPEAKER_00]: Back on Gata Beach, things are in complete disarray.
[01:16:20] [SPEAKER_00]: Your time is valuable.
[01:16:21] [SPEAKER_00]: You really need to be cautious with how you spend it.
[01:16:23] [SPEAKER_00]: Who should you speak with?
[01:16:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Andy or Sam?
[01:16:29] [SPEAKER_01]: Those are your two options.
[01:16:30] [SPEAKER_01]: So I am intrigued.
[01:16:31] [SPEAKER_01]: It seems like Andy, something's going on with him.
[01:16:34] [SPEAKER_01]: Now, while this may result in homicide,
[01:16:38] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm willing to roll the dice here.
[01:16:41] [SPEAKER_02]: Worst case, we leave with the showmance.
[01:16:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[01:16:44] [SPEAKER_01]: It was very sensual.
[01:16:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Or dead.
[01:16:46] [SPEAKER_00]: Or dead.
[01:16:47] [SPEAKER_00]: One of the two.
[01:16:48] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay, so you're going to choose to speak with Andy.
[01:16:53] [SPEAKER_00]: And you yell.
[01:16:54] [SPEAKER_00]: Does that sound like your grandfather, Brando?
[01:16:56] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm doing my best.
[01:16:57] [SPEAKER_02]: Spot on.
[01:16:58] [SPEAKER_00]: Thank you.
[01:16:59] [SPEAKER_00]: You yell from across the beach.
[01:17:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Want to go get water at the well?
[01:17:02] [SPEAKER_00]: You cheekily exclaim.
[01:17:04] [SPEAKER_00]: Andy agrees to go with you.
[01:17:06] [SPEAKER_00]: Once you reach the water well,
[01:17:07] [SPEAKER_00]: his eyes dart around looking for others.
[01:17:09] [SPEAKER_00]: I wanted to thank you for not letting me get traded to Lavo
[01:17:12] [SPEAKER_00]: during the chicken negotiations, Andy whispers.
[01:17:14] [SPEAKER_00]: We need to figure out a way to save us both.
[01:17:17] [SPEAKER_00]: You remember something.
[01:17:19] [SPEAKER_00]: You have an idol.
[01:17:21] [SPEAKER_00]: Thankfully, the blood paint doesn't invalidate it.
[01:17:23] [SPEAKER_00]: You need to find a way to figure out
[01:17:25] [SPEAKER_00]: where the votes are going tonight.
[01:17:26] [SPEAKER_00]: You and Andy go on a fact-finding mission,
[01:17:28] [SPEAKER_00]: weeding out all the false info.
[01:17:30] [SPEAKER_00]: But will you make the right call tonight?
[01:17:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Tribal council proceeds as normal,
[01:17:34] [SPEAKER_00]: but you're not paying attention.
[01:17:35] [SPEAKER_00]: There's so much pressure on your idol play.
[01:17:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Who cares about Jeff word?
[01:17:39] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, whatever.
[01:17:40] [SPEAKER_00]: It's time to vote, Jeff declares.
[01:17:42] [SPEAKER_00]: You fiddle with the idol in your pocket,
[01:17:44] [SPEAKER_00]: praying, hoping that you've made the right call.
[01:17:46] [SPEAKER_00]: Before Jeff can even say anything, you shoot up.
[01:17:48] [SPEAKER_00]: I want to play this idol, you yell awkwardly.
[01:17:51] [SPEAKER_00]: I can confirm this is a real immunity idol.
[01:17:54] [SPEAKER_00]: Your eyes dart around the tribe.
[01:17:56] [SPEAKER_00]: You or Andy.
[01:17:57] [SPEAKER_00]: You or Andy.
[01:17:57] [SPEAKER_00]: I want to play this idol for Andy.
[01:18:01] [SPEAKER_00]: Gasps erupt from the cast and crew.
[01:18:03] [SPEAKER_00]: The crew?
[01:18:04] [SPEAKER_01]: Wait, that's very professional.
[01:18:05] [SPEAKER_00]: The security.
[01:18:06] [SPEAKER_00]: You know, they're there.
[01:18:08] [SPEAKER_00]: Jeff reads the votes.
[01:18:10] [SPEAKER_00]: Andy does not count.
[01:18:11] [SPEAKER_00]: Andy does not count.
[01:18:13] [SPEAKER_00]: Andy does not count.
[01:18:14] [SPEAKER_00]: Sierra.
[01:18:15] [SPEAKER_00]: The fifth person voted out of Survivor is Sierra.
[01:18:19] [SPEAKER_00]: A wave of relief washes over you.
[01:18:22] [SPEAKER_00]: You and Andy are both safe to live another day.
[01:18:24] [SPEAKER_00]: But at what cost your social relationships?
[01:18:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Was this like the best ending besides not going to travel at all?
[01:18:31] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, this one was pretty good.
[01:18:33] [SPEAKER_00]: There was another.
[01:18:34] [SPEAKER_00]: Let's see.
[01:18:35] [SPEAKER_00]: If you.
[01:18:37] [SPEAKER_00]: If you talk to Sam.
[01:18:38] [SPEAKER_00]: It kind of depends on whether or not you find the idol.
[01:18:40] [SPEAKER_00]: If you have the idol, then that you almost always save yourself.
[01:18:45] [SPEAKER_00]: Hmm.
[01:18:46] [SPEAKER_00]: Um, if you talk to Sam, Sam also saves you.
[01:18:50] [SPEAKER_00]: There's another situation where if you suggest Andy, then essentially you definitely get voted out.
[01:18:56] [SPEAKER_00]: You also give an ultimatum to either Rachel or Annika.
[01:19:00] [SPEAKER_00]: It becomes very complicated.
[01:19:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Um, and then there's a, there's one situation where we play the idol wrong.
[01:19:06] [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah.
[01:19:07] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[01:19:08] [SPEAKER_00]: This, that's, that's the main, that's sort of the main story.
[01:19:10] [SPEAKER_00]: So congratulations.
[01:19:11] [SPEAKER_00]: You guys survived.
[01:19:13] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm really proud of Gobdon.
[01:19:14] [SPEAKER_00]: This is so funny.
[01:19:15] [SPEAKER_03]: You should like do this publicly.
[01:19:18] [SPEAKER_03]: People would love this.
[01:19:18] [SPEAKER_03]: I feel like.
[01:19:19] [SPEAKER_00]: It was, it's really, it's really fun to come.
[01:19:22] [SPEAKER_00]: So the, the one piece I was really happy with that you guys actually managed to figure out really well was the puzzle piece.
[01:19:28] [SPEAKER_00]: So there's an infinite recursion loop that you can get stuck into where you just can't get out of it.
[01:19:34] [SPEAKER_00]: And so you just keep trying to, yeah.
[01:19:35] [SPEAKER_00]: So you just keep trying the puzzle pieces and you can't get out.
[01:19:38] [SPEAKER_00]: So I'm really impressed that y'all managed to get out of that.
[01:19:41] [SPEAKER_00]: So.
[01:19:42] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh my God.
[01:19:42] [SPEAKER_01]: Liana, you killed it.
[01:19:44] [SPEAKER_01]: Much like you attempted to do with a chicken.
[01:19:47] [SPEAKER_00]: I know.
[01:19:48] [SPEAKER_00]: I know.
[01:19:49] [SPEAKER_00]: And you only died like not in the real playthrough.
[01:19:52] [SPEAKER_00]: So just the other one.
[01:19:53] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[01:19:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Luckily we avoided the incredibly dark, tragic ending of him being buried alive by a rock slide.
[01:20:01] [SPEAKER_00]: Under rocks.
[01:20:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[01:20:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Exactly.
[01:20:04] [SPEAKER_00]: And I'm a smart call with the not playing dead and getting medivac.
[01:20:08] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[01:20:08] [SPEAKER_00]: That is what would have happened.
[01:20:09] [SPEAKER_00]: I was playing dead.
[01:20:09] [SPEAKER_04]: That's all these two.
[01:20:10] [SPEAKER_04]: These two knew.
[01:20:11] [SPEAKER_00]: Well done.
[01:20:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Well done.
[01:20:13] [SPEAKER_00]: Gobbed on.
[01:20:13] [SPEAKER_00]: Gobbed on.
[01:20:14] [SPEAKER_00]: Gobbed on.
[01:20:14] [SPEAKER_00]: Gobbed on.
[01:20:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Well done for you, Liana.
[01:20:16] [SPEAKER_01]: You truly gave Gobbed on a voice quite literally and made us realize that, you know what?
[01:20:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe we should bring in 80 something year old Zamboni drivers into the game.
[01:20:26] [SPEAKER_04]: Where are they?
[01:20:27] [SPEAKER_04]: They're applying.
[01:20:28] [SPEAKER_04]: I know they're applying.
[01:20:29] [SPEAKER_04]: They play that commercial every episode.
[01:20:31] [SPEAKER_00]: We know they're out there.
[01:20:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Come on, Jeff.
[01:20:33] [SPEAKER_01]: Come on, Jesse.
[01:20:34] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, last time he reached out to moms, I think this time he's like, if you're an 80
[01:20:38] [SPEAKER_01]: year old Zamboni driver sitting next to you on the couch, shake it and say, hey, apply
[01:20:41] [SPEAKER_01]: to be on Survivor.
[01:20:43] [SPEAKER_00]: I love the idea of Jeff.
[01:20:45] [SPEAKER_00]: You know how?
[01:20:45] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[01:20:46] [SPEAKER_00]: So advertising is obviously changing.
[01:20:47] [SPEAKER_00]: We're getting a lot of very specific targeted ads.
[01:20:49] [SPEAKER_00]: So I kind of like this idea of Jeff also doing very targeted ads specifically to appeal
[01:20:54] [SPEAKER_00]: to the octogenarian Zamboni drivers.
[01:20:58] [SPEAKER_00]: This is going to come across.
[01:20:59] [SPEAKER_04]: This will play when you're on like the tablet at the doctor, you know, when you're checking
[01:21:03] [SPEAKER_04]: in, this is when they blast that as you're getting.
[01:21:06] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, skip this ad.
[01:21:07] [SPEAKER_02]: Like the bingo TV, like in between rounds.
[01:21:10] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[01:21:11] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[01:21:12] [SPEAKER_01]: They'll play like when you score a strike in bowling, like it's the animations, Jeff
[01:21:15] [SPEAKER_01]: popping up.
[01:21:17] [SPEAKER_01]: Apply to be on Survivor.
[01:21:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Apply to be on Survivor.
[01:21:19] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh my goodness.
[01:21:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Well, last but certainly not least, we are heading to spotlight over to these two gentlemen
[01:21:26] [SPEAKER_01]: and we're being extra charitable with the charity this time around.
[01:21:29] [SPEAKER_01]: You're each going to give a charity or cause to highlight for the audience.
[01:21:34] [SPEAKER_01]: Brando, as the newer blood, we'll start with you.
[01:21:36] [SPEAKER_01]: What charity do you want to highlight?
[01:21:37] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to go with the ALS Association.
[01:21:41] [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like ALS is a very important cause to the Survivor community and also just in general.
[01:21:45] [SPEAKER_02]: And so that's why that's my pick.
[01:21:47] [SPEAKER_02]: All right.
[01:21:47] [SPEAKER_02]: Sounds good.
[01:21:48] [SPEAKER_04]: What about you, Brandon?
[01:21:49] [SPEAKER_04]: I'm going to go with the Give Kids the World charity.
[01:21:51] [SPEAKER_04]: There's the over the edge weekend that's happening in December.
[01:21:54] [SPEAKER_04]: A lot of Survivor, Big Brother, Amazing Race folks are going to it.
[01:21:56] [SPEAKER_04]: I will not be in attendance, but I was in attendance many, many years before I was ever
[01:22:00] [SPEAKER_04]: on Survivor.
[01:22:01] [SPEAKER_04]: They throw a beautiful event and all the money from that goes to the Give Kids the World
[01:22:04] [SPEAKER_04]: charity.
[01:22:05] [SPEAKER_04]: So check out the charity event.
[01:22:06] [SPEAKER_04]: Even better yet, if you're in the Florida area, if you want to fly to it, go to the event,
[01:22:09] [SPEAKER_04]: all the money will go towards them.
[01:22:11] [SPEAKER_04]: And if you just want to support from your couch, just Google Give Kids the World and you can
[01:22:14] [SPEAKER_04]: find all the information there.
[01:22:16] [SPEAKER_01]: All right.
[01:22:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Two fantastic charities from two fantastic guys.
[01:22:19] [SPEAKER_01]: This was amazing.
[01:22:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Call it a double day.
[01:22:21] [SPEAKER_01]: Call it a quadruple B.
[01:22:23] [SPEAKER_01]: Whatever you want to.
[01:22:23] [SPEAKER_01]: I could not think of a better way to finish off my favorite pre-merge of the new era
[01:22:28] [SPEAKER_01]: so far.
[01:22:29] [SPEAKER_01]: Any final thoughts as we go around the horn and do some plugs?
[01:22:32] [SPEAKER_01]: Brandon, let's start with you.
[01:22:34] [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, I have nothing.
[01:22:35] [SPEAKER_04]: I mean, you can follow me, Brandon Dillon.
[01:22:37] [SPEAKER_04]: I do want to hype.
[01:22:38] [SPEAKER_04]: If you go on the Rob Hatties podcast Instagram in the next couple of days, you will see.
[01:22:42] [SPEAKER_04]: I don't know if you remember if you're watching this, but from the Chicago show, I had a bowl
[01:22:45] [SPEAKER_04]: made people on stage read things on stage or, you know, bring up words, random words
[01:22:50] [SPEAKER_04]: in conversation.
[01:22:51] [SPEAKER_04]: We did that again.
[01:22:53] [SPEAKER_04]: Rob didn't know about it and nobody's caught on that we did it.
[01:22:56] [SPEAKER_04]: Nobody asked me about it.
[01:22:56] [SPEAKER_04]: It was really weaved in well.
[01:22:58] [SPEAKER_04]: So this week we're editing the video.
[01:22:59] [SPEAKER_04]: Now you'll see what we did on stage that a couple of people pulled out of a hat or really
[01:23:04] [SPEAKER_04]: out of the we had the Donnie briefcase, which is a fun.
[01:23:08] [SPEAKER_04]: So people pull things out of the Donnie briefcase and read them aloud on stage.
[01:23:12] [SPEAKER_04]: Weaved them in so good that you didn't even notice it.
[01:23:14] [SPEAKER_04]: So you'll see that this week.
[01:23:16] [SPEAKER_01]: All right.
[01:23:16] [SPEAKER_04]: So cool.
[01:23:17] [SPEAKER_01]: That is amazing.
[01:23:19] [SPEAKER_01]: Brando, what would you like to plug?
[01:23:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Because you are out and about on these Internet streets.
[01:23:23] [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, other than giving, you know, one more shout out to Brandon Donlon's new fantastic
[01:23:27] [SPEAKER_02]: haircut.
[01:23:28] [SPEAKER_02]: I'd like to plug my Twitch channel.
[01:23:30] [SPEAKER_02]: I've been doing a lot of fun stuff.
[01:23:32] [SPEAKER_02]: Pokemon Survivor baking over on twitch.tv slash Brando Meyer.
[01:23:37] [SPEAKER_02]: So come come say hi.
[01:23:38] [SPEAKER_02]: We have a good time over there.
[01:23:39] [SPEAKER_02]: How often do you stream?
[01:23:41] [SPEAKER_02]: Well, I try to do every Saturday, but it's pretty sporadic right now.
[01:23:44] [SPEAKER_02]: So turn on my notifications and you'll never miss a stream.
[01:23:48] [SPEAKER_02]: Perfect.
[01:23:48] [SPEAKER_02]: Liana, what do you got to plug?
[01:23:50] [SPEAKER_00]: You can follow me on Twitter at Liana RHAP.
[01:23:52] [SPEAKER_00]: And I'm also doing the Masked Singer coverage.
[01:23:54] [SPEAKER_00]: That's going strong.
[01:23:56] [SPEAKER_00]: So we and I are going to be talking or talked about the premiere of Group B.
[01:24:00] [SPEAKER_00]: So all new people.
[01:24:01] [SPEAKER_00]: That was really, really fun.
[01:24:02] [SPEAKER_00]: So even if you're not a big Masked Singer fan, we highly recommend come hang out with
[01:24:06] [SPEAKER_00]: us for a bit.
[01:24:07] [SPEAKER_01]: All right.
[01:24:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Of course, you can follow me at a Mike Bloom type.
[01:24:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Check out my conversation with Anika, which was a lot of fun as we were both kind of recuperating
[01:24:15] [SPEAKER_01]: from the glow of the live show.
[01:24:18] [SPEAKER_01]: I was still glowing to get to talk with her about everything that happened in her game
[01:24:21] [SPEAKER_01]: and then doing my usual stuff for scripted TV.
[01:24:25] [SPEAKER_01]: And I got to do a bunch of stuff for the Big Brother finale as well.
[01:24:28] [SPEAKER_01]: If you're still catching up on that, plenty of stuff happening in the reality TV community
[01:24:33] [SPEAKER_01]: as spooky season officially begins.
[01:24:35] [SPEAKER_01]: And I'll be a little scared next week because Liana will be unfortunately not available to
[01:24:43] [SPEAKER_01]: come on to the BNB.
[01:24:45] [SPEAKER_01]: But we have quite the treat for you.
[01:24:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Not a trick.
[01:24:48] [SPEAKER_01]: I'll be joined by another Motley duo.
[01:24:51] [SPEAKER_01]: And considering that the individual portion of the game, we're dealing with a lot of free
[01:24:55] [SPEAKER_01]: agents.
[01:24:56] [SPEAKER_01]: It only makes sense.
[01:24:57] [SPEAKER_01]: We bring on the two co-hosts of the free agent podcast.
[01:25:00] [SPEAKER_01]: That's Matt Liguori and Brian Escali.
[01:25:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Very excited.
[01:25:02] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't think either one of them have ever been on the BNB.
[01:25:06] [SPEAKER_01]: So should be a fun way for them to make their debut as you break down whatever the hell
[01:25:10] [SPEAKER_01]: is coming next.
[01:25:12] [SPEAKER_01]: Whether it's regular, mergatory as we know it, whether it's something new.
[01:25:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Either way, it's sure to be messy given the loving timbre of this cast.
[01:25:21] [SPEAKER_01]: And I cannot wait to get into it.
[01:25:23] [SPEAKER_01]: Of course, thank you to everybody who came out to the live show as well.
[01:25:26] [SPEAKER_01]: It is always such an incredible experience.
[01:25:29] [SPEAKER_01]: And especially those of you that had some very kind words to say about the BNB as well.
[01:25:33] [SPEAKER_01]: It really does mean the world truly to have your support going on for over 10 seasons now
[01:25:40] [SPEAKER_01]: at this point.
[01:25:41] [SPEAKER_01]: We wouldn't be able to do it without all of you listening to us just absolutely play
[01:25:45] [SPEAKER_01]: proverbial cornhole for an hour and a half every week.
[01:25:49] [SPEAKER_01]: And we'll do it all again next week.
[01:25:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Special shout out to everyone at the team behind the scenes at RHAP for packaging this
[01:25:56] [SPEAKER_01]: podcast for your eyes and ears.
[01:25:58] [SPEAKER_01]: And Will from America for his fantastic theme song.
[01:26:00] [SPEAKER_01]: I will be back next week with Matt and Scali to break down the next phase of Survivor 47.
[01:26:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Until next time, everybody.
[01:26:09] [SPEAKER_01]: We'll check you out at your next day.
[01:26:11] [SPEAKER_01]: Long live God.
[01:26:12] [SPEAKER_06]: Like a neon a guy that's playing some games.
[01:26:15] [SPEAKER_06]: You better pray to your mama that they're not super lame.
[01:26:19] [SPEAKER_06]: And if that all sounds cool, I can tell you the name.
[01:26:23] [SPEAKER_06]: It's the R-H-A-P-B-M-B.
[01:26:28] [SPEAKER_06]: Mike and Leanna gotta play in some games.
[01:26:31] [SPEAKER_06]: You better pray to your mama that they're not super lame.
[01:26:37] [SPEAKER_06]: Sounds cool, I can tell you the name.
[01:26:43] [SPEAKER_06]: And say for free.
