[00:02:19] lackadudal of podcasting

[00:02:21] I'm Rob Sisterdino, Hello everybody

[00:02:23] Welcome back to our Survivor post game show

[00:02:27] and we've got some things to talk about here

[00:02:31] Very excited for our guest here with us tonight

[00:02:35] Thank you for having me

[00:02:37] and a miracle has been answered.

[00:02:41] Very excited to bring here for you,

[00:02:44] some call him a Merman dragon.

[00:02:47] It's Rick Devins, Rick, how are you?

[00:02:50] Woo, Rob, I'm so excited to be here.

[00:02:53] Obviously just excited to be the fill up to your Rob

[00:02:58] as anyone would be.

[00:03:01] Now, I didn't call you a liability.

[00:03:05] Not yet, you have.

[00:03:07] We just started, Rob.

[00:03:08] Yes.

[00:03:09] Rick, let's get into it.

[00:03:10] Yes, let's get into it here.

[00:03:12] And we got to talk about no tribal council tonight,

[00:03:15] but still look, that's why they give us 90 minutes.

[00:03:17] OK?

[00:03:18] That's right.

[00:03:20] There's a lot to talk about.

[00:03:21] OK, it's not a two hour episode,

[00:03:23] but still a lot to talk about here from survivor tonight.

[00:03:28] First of all, Rick, what's going on?

[00:03:31] How are you?

[00:03:32] I've been great, man.

[00:03:33] Everything's good.

[00:03:35] Busy down here.

[00:03:36] The kids are doing swell.

[00:03:39] My wife Beck is doing terrific and excited

[00:03:43] for a new season of survivor.

[00:03:45] OK, cool.

[00:03:45] Well, we are going to get into it here tonight.

[00:03:48] We'll take your questions in the chat.

[00:03:50] Plus on Thursday, got a big day where we'll talk with Randan.

[00:03:55] Hopefully he's doing OK after a kind of a scary injury

[00:04:01] that he suffered out there on survivor.

[00:04:03] It appears to be doing OK based off of what we saw at the end

[00:04:07] of the episode, but we'll talk with Randan ourselves.

[00:04:10] And then Stephen Fishback.

[00:04:11] Right now.

[00:04:12] Yeah.

[00:04:13] Get totally screwed over by Dr. Will.

[00:04:17] Can we just Dr. Joe never want to let this happen?

[00:04:21] OK, we can go, we can get into that later.

[00:04:23] OK.

[00:04:25] Just getting Dr. Will.

[00:04:26] Yes, just yeah.

[00:04:28] And then we'll have Stephen Fishback for survivor

[00:04:31] no adults coming up on Thursday that's

[00:04:33] going to be live at two with fishback.

[00:04:36] Yeah, so OK, Rick.

[00:04:37] So what's your read on this medical situation?

[00:04:45] That really sucks.

[00:04:46] I feel I feel really bad for Randan.

[00:04:47] That would be totally freaky to be out there

[00:04:50] and just lose that feeling.

[00:04:52] I can't even imagine the things that

[00:04:53] would be going through my mind like was I bit by something.

[00:04:57] Sure.

[00:04:58] But this is, I've always said like I started out

[00:05:01] sleeping on Bamboo.

[00:05:03] And when I went to edge of extinction, there was none.

[00:05:05] So I slept on the sand and it was like a light bulb moment.

[00:05:08] Like it's so much better to sleep in the dirt or the sand

[00:05:12] than on the Bamboo.

[00:05:13] So that should be our takeaway.

[00:05:15] But just a real bummer.

[00:05:16] I think they have to play it safe.

[00:05:18] Dr. Will did the right thing.

[00:05:20] Every time I say Dr. Will, I think a big brother.

[00:05:22] Yes.

[00:05:23] Yeah.

[00:05:24] Yeah, the evil dog, not the evil doctor will.

[00:05:26] How do you filter it?

[00:05:28] That I'm sure that this is going to be a talking point.

[00:05:31] And I'm not sure if like Jeff will get into this more.

[00:05:35] But I know everybody's gonna talk about how in Australian

[00:05:40] survivor that there are times and George,

[00:05:44] we'll tell you this himself about how

[00:05:46] that they can take Randan.

[00:05:48] We need to take you for an MRI.

[00:05:50] Let's get you out there.

[00:05:51] We got an MRI schedule for the morning.

[00:05:54] And if you're okay, you'll come back to the game.

[00:05:57] That is not the case in US survivor.

[00:06:01] And I don't know the particulars of it.

[00:06:05] If I had to guess talking totally out of my butt,

[00:06:10] I would imagine Rick that it's probably an insurance thing

[00:06:15] of that okay if somebody suffers an injury

[00:06:18] and it's bad enough that we have to take them out of the game

[00:06:21] that we are in major trouble

[00:06:25] if then if we put them back into the game.

[00:06:29] I think that this is like a conversation.

[00:06:32] It's not even like, I could be wrong about this.

[00:06:35] I don't think it's a Jeff call or producer call.

[00:06:38] Like I think that this is like a corporate call.

[00:06:43] That's interesting.

[00:06:44] That wouldn't surprise me at all.

[00:06:46] You're probably right.

[00:06:47] I always thought of it as kind of like an integrity

[00:06:49] of the game thing because I know that's someone

[00:06:52] who's watched all of George's seasons of survivor.

[00:06:55] I'm like, wow, they bailed George out.

[00:06:57] You know who knows what would have happened.

[00:06:59] But if he doesn't even miss a tribal council,

[00:07:01] like is there a ton of like they weren't going

[00:07:03] to tribal council that night?

[00:07:05] If they didn't miss a tribal,

[00:07:06] I don't yeah, I agree with you.

[00:07:08] It doesn't really change that much to do anything it hurts you.

[00:07:12] Right.

[00:07:13] But then if they take you to a hospital to get checked out,

[00:07:15] they're probably gonna want to give you food, right?

[00:07:18] They're probably gonna want to do something.

[00:07:20] Yeah, it might be like an integrity of the game

[00:07:22] in terms of like okay, if we have to give them an IV

[00:07:24] to do an MRI, but I mean, especially with it being so much shorter

[00:07:28] than Australian survivor in terms of the seasonling.

[00:07:31] Yeah, so again, I don't know if it's just against

[00:07:35] like the survivor rules, but I feel like that if because as far

[00:07:39] as like a fairness perspective, like I don't care,

[00:07:42] like let Randan go get his MRI.

[00:07:44] And if he looks, if it looks okay,

[00:07:46] if he's feeling better, then let him back into the game.

[00:07:50] But I mean, I'm just going off of like,

[00:07:53] I feel like that there's got to be some kind of like corporate decision

[00:07:58] of, you know, hey, if we bring him back into the game

[00:08:02] and there is something wrong here, then, you know,

[00:08:05] we're gonna, this is a lawsuit.

[00:08:08] Yeah, I think the more I think about it,

[00:08:10] I think you're right, especially,

[00:08:11] you know, it's one thing if you're missing a tribal,

[00:08:13] which we've seen in Australian survivor.

[00:08:15] But if you're not, it's almost more fair to bring him back

[00:08:18] in the game than to take him out of the game

[00:08:20] because that affects people in the game in a negative way

[00:08:24] or an obviously himself.

[00:08:26] Yeah, okay.

[00:08:28] Now the question is,

[00:08:29] is the pred, did he make it far enough

[00:08:31] that he doesn't get the Bruce treatment?

[00:08:32] I mean, I think that we would assume

[00:08:35] that he's made it too far to get the Bruce treat.

[00:08:37] I guess we'll have to wait to find out

[00:08:39] if he gets the automatic Bruce return to the show.

[00:08:43] But yeah, I mean, he said he's like,

[00:08:47] for me now, it's all about coming back.

[00:08:50] That'd be a tough way to go out.

[00:08:52] Yeah, especially when you have an advantage.

[00:08:55] Yeah, poor guy.

[00:08:56] Yeah.

[00:08:57] So I know a lot of people are probably also going to be

[00:09:00] talking about, should he, could he have given the advantage

[00:09:07] to Venus?

[00:09:08] Do you ever read on what the rules are?

[00:09:11] Like, could he if he had wanted to pass off

[00:09:14] the advantage to Venus?

[00:09:17] I feel like a tribal, you know,

[00:09:20] when the votes are read, you can't.

[00:09:21] Right.

[00:09:22] I feel like in the situation you could,

[00:09:23] like you either do it in front of people

[00:09:25] or you find a way to do it secretly.

[00:09:27] The cameras are there, the people around, why not?

[00:09:29] It's never been done.

[00:09:30] So I do wonder, do the producers consider this the same

[00:09:34] as like, okay, Brandon, that's enough.

[00:09:36] You're voted out.

[00:09:37] Like you can't hand, like this is an Australian survivor.

[00:09:40] You can't just hand off the,

[00:09:42] in another way it's not Australian survivor.

[00:09:44] You can't hand the idol to somebody

[00:09:46] after you've been voted out.

[00:09:48] And in the, you know,

[00:09:50] the precedent here is that it's never been done,

[00:09:53] but I don't think anybody's ever wanted to do it.

[00:09:55] You've got Colton back in survivor one world,

[00:09:58] didn't like he left the game, medical evacuation maybe

[00:10:04] with an idol,

[00:10:06] but go back to Neil Gottlieb back in survivor Kaurang.

[00:10:10] He had the idol, didn't give it to Aubrey.

[00:10:13] So I don't think we've ever had the situation

[00:10:15] where somebody wanted to hand off an advantage

[00:10:20] or an idol to somebody as they're being removed from the game.

[00:10:24] I, it's a great question that we'll ask him tomorrow

[00:10:27] of that if he wanted to, would he have been able to?

[00:10:32] I would think selfishly, you know,

[00:10:35] I don't care about bringing home a memento.

[00:10:38] I would want to have an impact on the game

[00:10:39] and if Venus was my person,

[00:10:41] I would absolutely try to do that.

[00:10:44] Ask the producers, can I do this?

[00:10:47] Yeah, and the chat reminds me of Matthew in season 44

[00:10:51] also left with the idol and you know,

[00:10:54] didn't give it to somebody else.

[00:10:55] But maybe like was this a blindside did they know

[00:11:00] that you know, potentially like,

[00:11:02] hey, sit out there because Jeff and Dr. Will

[00:11:05] are coming to pay you a visit.

[00:11:07] Did he was this a total blindside for Brandon?

[00:11:11] It's, you know, definitely interesting thought.

[00:11:17] Yeah, I will be staying tuned for that.

[00:11:20] Sure.

[00:11:21] Our app interval.

[00:11:22] We'll find out on Thursday.

[00:11:24] But Rick, so here's my next question about this.

[00:11:27] All right, so Brandon had a beware advantage

[00:11:32] and the beware advantage said, go dig on the ground.

[00:11:36] There's our box and then the box,

[00:11:39] the box contains the idol.

[00:11:41] The key will be delivered after you lose the challenge.

[00:11:46] Could Venus, again, Brandon and Venus were talked

[00:11:51] did how far down the road did Brandon get?

[00:11:55] And if Venus went and found the box,

[00:11:59] will the key still be delivered to the box

[00:12:02] even though Brandon left with the beware advantage?

[00:12:07] Wow, that I think the key should follow the box.

[00:12:11] I bet they were designed to be attracted to one enough.

[00:12:14] The key should follow the key master and the gatekeeper.

[00:12:19] Yeah, I mean, that key's not going to follow Brandon

[00:12:22] out of the game and why have a box there not to be opened?

[00:12:26] I mean, let Pandora out and let's have some fun with it.

[00:12:30] I think if she finds that box, the key will find her.

[00:12:34] That would be my prediction.

[00:12:35] Do you think, I mean the show painted it as like,

[00:12:39] oh, well, the advantage is gone with my ally.

[00:12:42] It doesn't seem like that's in play.

[00:12:45] I, yeah, based on what they showed,

[00:12:48] I would guess that she doesn't know where the box is,

[00:12:50] that she didn't get that far along the line with her.

[00:12:53] But I would hate to see her dig up that box

[00:12:59] and just wait and wait.

[00:13:01] And now we wait.

[00:13:03] Yeah, it's like, I guess she would find out

[00:13:05] if she didn't lose her boat like you can still vote.

[00:13:07] But yeah, I hope someone finds the box.

[00:13:12] Yeah, okay.

[00:13:13] So we'll see if Venus looks like she's in a bad situation.

[00:13:17] But let's talk about this Yannu tribe and boy.

[00:13:24] Now Rick, you were on,

[00:13:26] can I call Lesu a disaster tribe?

[00:13:29] Is that offensive?

[00:13:31] Well, it was, but it was a disaster tribe

[00:13:34] even less an amount of time than Manu tribe.

[00:13:37] Of Manu tribe?

[00:13:38] Manu was the real disaster tribe.

[00:13:41] We started out with Manu and turned into Lesu

[00:13:44] as the same group, but both tribes were awful.

[00:13:47] Yeah.

[00:13:48] Can you talk a little bit about what it's like

[00:13:49] to be in this spot where you really just can't stop

[00:13:52] the bleeding?

[00:13:54] It's really disheartening.

[00:13:57] I mean, with everything going on out there,

[00:13:59] and you're getting rained on

[00:14:01] and you're dealing with the lack of hunger

[00:14:03] and you just get a spark from winning.

[00:14:06] It gives you energy.

[00:14:07] It's like, when you find an idol,

[00:14:11] when anything good, it gives you a spark.

[00:14:13] It's like that's why I'm here.

[00:14:14] And that's enough to power you through a couple days

[00:14:16] of just really awful living situations

[00:14:20] and sometimes tense living situations

[00:14:21] with the people you're out there with.

[00:14:23] And when you just have no positivity

[00:14:26] and you just keep losing

[00:14:28] and you start in our situation

[00:14:31] at least it was a larger tribe.

[00:14:33] So there was people that were outside

[00:14:36] of our core kind of alliance

[00:14:38] that we were voting out and it sucked to vote them out

[00:14:41] and we felt like losers voting them out.

[00:14:43] But at least it wasn't us

[00:14:45] and then you keep voting people out

[00:14:47] and you're like, wow, now it's us.

[00:14:49] And it's just so disheartening to go with everything else

[00:14:52] and you just feel like you're blowing this opportunity.

[00:14:55] It pays off later because you get all the air time

[00:14:57] and the other tribes don't even sniff TV to do it.

[00:14:59] Yeah, that's true.

[00:15:01] But when you're out there,

[00:15:02] you're not thinking about that.

[00:15:04] It's just like what is wrong with us?

[00:15:07] What's wrong with me that we can't get over this hump?

[00:15:10] Yeah, it really looked like that Yanu was going

[00:15:12] to get over the hump today.

[00:15:14] They were like Seigo was like leading the pack

[00:15:18] but they had like a big lead over Nami

[00:15:21] and then ultimately, I think that really the tell was

[00:15:25] when they showed us that Hunter has all of the survivor challenges

[00:15:29] like Carson, watch this.

[00:15:33] It's like yeah, I have built life size replicas

[00:15:37] of every survivor challenge at my house.

[00:15:41] Like I'm not 3D printing anything.

[00:15:45] No.

[00:15:47] My 3D printer is a wood shop.

[00:15:53] It's just hot take.

[00:15:55] Anyone who in their audition video shows you all the challenges

[00:15:57] they have, don't put them on the show.

[00:16:00] Don't do it.

[00:16:01] It's not, don't encourage that behavior.

[00:16:03] Get normal people on the show.

[00:16:06] And I like Hunter, he's great, but it's just like give me a break.

[00:16:10] Come on man.

[00:16:11] Like you don't have time to do that with your life, do you?

[00:16:15] No, I've never built any survivor challenges.

[00:16:19] I mean, like not to say that

[00:16:21] I have been a good example of what people like with

[00:16:25] like a healthy, productive social life

[00:16:29] and work life balance do.

[00:16:30] But no, I've never built any survivor challenges.

[00:16:34] Yeah, I think when you take it to such a degree

[00:16:37] it's like you're becoming less of a 3D personality

[00:16:40] and more of a 2D personality.

[00:16:42] And we don't...

[00:16:44] Yeah, they should hire him.

[00:16:47] Yeah, absolutely.

[00:16:48] Put them on the dream team, make him a producer,

[00:16:50] make him a designer.

[00:16:52] Yeah, that'd be a thing.

[00:16:53] And that being said, he has been a 3D...

[00:16:55] Like everything I say is he's proving me wrong

[00:16:59] because he has been well rounded.

[00:17:02] Yeah, that's a lot of dimensions

[00:17:03] but I just resent it

[00:17:05] because I don't have the time to make any more.

[00:17:07] Yeah, but he just like lob those sandbags up there

[00:17:11] with ease through the challenge

[00:17:13] and then sends Yannu back okay.

[00:17:17] Let's Rick, let's talk a little bit about Banyu

[00:17:20] and this was such a spotlight on Banyu in this episode.

[00:17:25] He is a wackadoodle,

[00:17:28] but I think he may have won a million hearts tonight.

[00:17:32] Well, let me ask you since you brought a wackadoodle.

[00:17:35] Do wackadoodles win?

[00:17:37] Is there one instance of a wackadoodle?

[00:17:39] Who is the biggest wackadoodle that ever won...

[00:17:42] A little wackadoodle.

[00:17:44] Was Fabio a wackadoodle?

[00:17:47] Not really.

[00:17:49] I don't think I would describe him as a wackadoodle.

[00:17:53] Is Gableer a wackadoodle?

[00:17:58] He's a Gableer and wackadoodle's clothing.

[00:18:01] I think he was convinced them all, he was a wackadoodle.

[00:18:04] Yeah, is Bob Crowley a wackadoodle?

[00:18:09] I don't know, you might know...

[00:18:10] I don't know.

[00:18:12] He was on a seasonal wackadoodle

[00:18:14] so that season was coming away with a wackadoodle winner

[00:18:17] no matter what.

[00:18:18] Yeah.

[00:18:19] So, I think Mary Ann can be a wackadoodle sometimes.

[00:18:26] She was within the realm of her season,

[00:18:28] she was a bit of a wackadoodle.

[00:18:30] She's not a wackadoodle on like...

[00:18:33] I think of Nora and of course Phillip

[00:18:39] and got the one with a million jobs.

[00:18:42] I'm totally blank.

[00:18:43] Deppy.

[00:18:44] Deppy, of course, Deppy.

[00:18:45] How could I possibly forget?

[00:18:48] That's my mother-in-law's name who is absolutely listening.

[00:18:51] This podcast, hey Deppy.

[00:18:52] Hi Deppy.

[00:18:53] Yeah.

[00:18:54] So yeah, that was an interesting conversation

[00:18:57] just at the beginning of the episode

[00:18:58] when Q was talking with Bonu and you know,

[00:19:02] Q comes to him and says,

[00:19:04] Hey, I want to save you like...

[00:19:06] I don't want you to go anywhere

[00:19:08] and Bonu is like, oh, well what if he's playing me?

[00:19:13] There's three of them.

[00:19:15] The Q and Tiffany

[00:19:17] and Kenzie, they're masterminds

[00:19:20] and they're playing me

[00:19:21] and I can't trust anything that Q was saying.

[00:19:25] I think this is what's like

[00:19:27] the really interesting paradox with Bonu

[00:19:30] is that he is just this positive guy.

[00:19:36] He's just radiating positively, always positive

[00:19:39] and yet he's plagued with all this negativity,

[00:19:43] all these negative thoughts,

[00:19:45] all this self-doubt, all the time

[00:19:46] and it just tears him apart, obviously.

[00:19:49] Like it's making him an emotional wreck out there.

[00:19:53] So I think the fact that, you know,

[00:19:57] right before he had that conversation with Q

[00:19:59] he's talking with Kenzie and Kenzie gives him nothing

[00:20:02] and he recognizes that

[00:20:03] and he's like she gave me nothing.

[00:20:05] She's not someone I can work with.

[00:20:06] When he was talking with Q

[00:20:08] he couldn't trust Q because Q was telling him

[00:20:11] everything he wanted to hear.

[00:20:12] When he was talking to Kenzie

[00:20:13] he couldn't trust Kenzie

[00:20:14] because he wasn't giving him what he wants.

[00:20:16] So that just makes, you know,

[00:20:18] he can't work with anybody if that's his criteria.

[00:20:21] He's got to kind of choose someone

[00:20:23] who strategically works for him.

[00:20:24] He doesn't necessarily have to trust him.

[00:20:26] He just has to trust, you know,

[00:20:28] what his motivations are

[00:20:29] and he's not a game player like that.

[00:20:32] How do you think Bonu would be doing

[00:20:33] if he was on one of the other tribes?

[00:20:37] That was winning all the time.

[00:20:38] If he was on Siga or if he was on Nami

[00:20:41] I think he would be beloved.

[00:20:43] I think he would just be positive around camp

[00:20:46] because if you're on those other tribes

[00:20:47] you're bored.

[00:20:48] You're not going to tribal.

[00:20:49] You're not doing anything

[00:20:51] because you're just going back to camp

[00:20:52] and it's the same routine over and over.

[00:20:54] So to have a Bonu there who's full of life

[00:20:57] and full of these stories is a great thing to have

[00:21:01] if you're winning.

[00:21:02] I wonder, you know, through three episodes

[00:21:05] is Bonu the most emotional contestant

[00:21:09] that we've ever seen?

[00:21:10] I'm trying to think I cannot recall

[00:21:13] another person that is just like having,

[00:21:19] you know, emotional outburst

[00:21:22] after emotional outburst

[00:21:23] and not that there's anything wrong with that

[00:21:26] but the way that he even on the journey he broke down.

[00:21:31] No, yeah, because it isn't just tears.

[00:21:34] It's like, like you said, perfect

[00:21:37] an emotional outburst

[00:21:38] and that's jarring man.

[00:21:40] Like you're not getting a lot of sleep

[00:21:42] you're not getting a lot of food.

[00:21:43] That's a lot to deal with on a regular basis.

[00:21:46] If you're those two that just meet him on the journey,

[00:21:48] okay, no problem.

[00:21:49] Like this is a lot

[00:21:50] but we're going back to our camp

[00:21:52] with like this great story.

[00:21:53] If you're dealing with that day in and day out

[00:21:56] that's a lot to deal with.

[00:21:59] That's a lot to worry about setting off at any time.

[00:22:03] Yeah.

[00:22:04] And so Bonu ends up going on this journey

[00:22:07] with Ben and Liz

[00:22:09] and everybody's just like, okay,

[00:22:11] Bonu, you're not gonna tell everybody all of our secrets, right?

[00:22:15] Right?

[00:22:16] You're not gonna.

[00:22:17] And he said last time, no,

[00:22:19] I'm not going to be like that

[00:22:20] and then like they say nothing.

[00:22:23] And basically they ask him,

[00:22:24] are you okay

[00:22:26] and the floodgates open

[00:22:28] and he is just like telling them

[00:22:32] everything that's been going on

[00:22:34] he ends up like it's saying

[00:22:36] it's going to be his last day.

[00:22:37] He crumbles to his knees.

[00:22:42] Ben is such a sweetheart.

[00:22:45] Like Ben just tries to start it off

[00:22:47] with like a nice little thing

[00:22:48] like I'm thinking about you

[00:22:50] genuine from the heart

[00:22:51] and yeah, Bonu just takes that

[00:22:53] and runs with it

[00:22:54] and it's like what is happening in front of him?

[00:22:57] I mean, part of them has to be thinking

[00:22:59] maybe this guy should go home

[00:23:01] like maybe what's best for this gentleman

[00:23:04] is to go where there's psychologists

[00:23:07] and there's food and you know

[00:23:11] but in terms of survivor

[00:23:14] like what a gift.

[00:23:15] I mean, I think you absolutely believe everything he's saying

[00:23:19] and it's just a treasure trove of information

[00:23:21] and by the way,

[00:23:22] I'm team Bonu tell them everything.

[00:23:24] Either you're gonna get voted out

[00:23:26] or you're gonna meet them later,

[00:23:27] screw those back together.

[00:23:28] Right, right.

[00:23:29] What incentive does Bonu have

[00:23:30] to keep the secrets?

[00:23:32] Absolutely.

[00:23:33] Right.

[00:23:34] It's clearly gonna eat it

[00:23:36] and keep those secrets anyway.

[00:23:38] It's like just let it out.

[00:23:39] Yeah, and he did.

[00:23:42] He let it out and then submit.

[00:23:44] And so in this journey

[00:23:46] we end up getting a different game

[00:23:48] and really I feel like that we're in the era of

[00:23:51] we're gonna do something new every single time

[00:23:54] we go to the journey.

[00:23:56] Sometimes okay, maybe it's you know

[00:23:58] get a sandwich or an advantage

[00:24:00] sometimes it's play the

[00:24:02] who has the vote card today we're doing

[00:24:05] I guess this was somewhat similar

[00:24:06] to last season where we saw people

[00:24:09] have to do puzzles

[00:24:10] but this was one where okay

[00:24:12] there's gonna be a rock draw to determine

[00:24:15] who's doing the puzzles

[00:24:17] and then the opportunity to win a vote.

[00:24:19] First, I wanna ask you

[00:24:20] do you like the randomness here

[00:24:23] out of like two out of you

[00:24:25] two out of the three of you

[00:24:26] were gonna get the chance to play this

[00:24:27] and pick the rock from the bag?

[00:24:30] I kind of do.

[00:24:31] I really like it

[00:24:32] in the way they're switching it up

[00:24:34] because I just love that moment

[00:24:36] when you get back to camp

[00:24:37] and you're like how are they gonna sell this

[00:24:39] and it's funny their way

[00:24:40] whether they're telling the truth

[00:24:42] or they're lying they have to sell it

[00:24:43] and someone always doesn't believe them either way.

[00:24:45] So I appreciate it for that reason.

[00:24:49] I wish that they would give them the chance

[00:24:51] it's like okay there are two stations

[00:24:54] to end up going in there

[00:24:57] and you have the opportunity

[00:25:00] to win the advantage okay

[00:25:02] we need exactly two of you to play

[00:25:06] or if we can't get two of you to play

[00:25:09] everybody loses their vote okay.

[00:25:12] So now self select two out of the three

[00:25:15] that I want somebody to say

[00:25:17] I even would like it

[00:25:18] if they would say okay

[00:25:20] we need a volunteer from each tribe.

[00:25:23] I want people to like have like

[00:25:24] a little bit more agency.

[00:25:26] I get if you wanna give it to the team

[00:25:27] that wins the challenge to get to pick

[00:25:29] but I'd like to see people either

[00:25:32] tell us the reasons why they wanna do this

[00:25:35] or the reasons why they don't wanna do this.

[00:25:38] I would like your way better I do.

[00:25:41] I don't mind the way it was

[00:25:44] but I think Jolinsky is proof of your point

[00:25:46] just like the fact that he had that one I want

[00:25:49] I mean they played poker with each other

[00:25:51] it was a showdown and he just totally folded

[00:25:54] and then when he told his tribe

[00:25:55] that like there was a domino effect in the game

[00:25:57] like it played a big part

[00:25:59] whereas if he had just gone back

[00:26:00] and said I drew a white rock

[00:26:01] it was random

[00:26:03] totally different game for Jolinsky.

[00:26:06] So yeah I like the way you do it

[00:26:07] and I agree that the more times

[00:26:09] that you have the people making the decision

[00:26:12] the castaways are the ones responsible

[00:26:14] for something going one way or the other

[00:26:16] because there's gonna be people that wanna do it

[00:26:18] and those people that aren't gonna wanna risk their vote

[00:26:20] in that spot

[00:26:21] but ultimately okay so Bono is not going to get his vote.

[00:26:26] Back at camp we see Q taking the loss very hard

[00:26:32] and Q talk about maybe it should be him

[00:26:38] and Rick I'm of two minds here

[00:26:41] one I'm saying is Q really

[00:26:45] I mean he looks like he's taking this loss hard

[00:26:49] and he seems like when he's like beating himself up

[00:26:52] he seems like he's really serious

[00:26:56] maybe he is saying like hey I deserve to be the person

[00:26:58] to go home but then I'm also wondering was this a play

[00:27:02] was he setting up like a long con?

[00:27:07] It just seemed like he was alone

[00:27:10] when he was doing it for part of the time

[00:27:12] so he wasn't calling other castaways

[00:27:13] he's like conning us as he's like I'm a failure

[00:27:17] I should have done it

[00:27:19] like I didn't do it in high school

[00:27:20] like this was my chance at redemption

[00:27:22] but I'm just like

[00:27:24] you know last episode

[00:27:27] I think Kinsey and Tiff got a lot of flack

[00:27:30] like Mean Girls and they could have been nicer for sure

[00:27:34] but for them to be out there with these dramatic men

[00:27:38] on that tribe like between Q and Bony

[00:27:42] like what are we doing guys

[00:27:45] you just need some level

[00:27:46] not to mention Jolinsky

[00:27:48] oh my gosh right exactly flopping back and forth

[00:27:53] so they're trying to just study the ship

[00:27:56] while these guys are going insane

[00:27:59] but I don't know that was with Q

[00:28:01] it's just really over the top

[00:28:03] and it's just like this is survivor

[00:28:06] you came out here to do an individual game

[00:28:08] you got to keep focused on that

[00:28:10] and it is easy to fall for these people you're with

[00:28:13] and to want to do well for them

[00:28:15] but let's not go crazy

[00:28:17] Rick would you have liked to have seen Sam Howell

[00:28:20] beat himself up a little bit more

[00:28:22] over some of these commanders games this season?

[00:28:26] I would have liked to see the whole regime

[00:28:30] you know they do exactly what I wanted them to do

[00:28:34] we got that number two pick in the draft

[00:28:36] job well done yeah

[00:28:38] to Sam Howell

[00:28:40] me and me and Ron Rupert and Company

[00:28:42] and something that my boy Brindichapiro

[00:28:46] and Dalton Ross and I haven't been texting like crazy

[00:28:49] over the I know you're more interested in politics

[00:28:51] with Aaron Rogers

[00:28:52] but we've been talking about the commanders

[00:28:56] David Light one of our loyal listeners

[00:28:58] who is excited right now

[00:29:00] we're talking commanders

[00:29:03] okay so Q

[00:29:05] RfK are you voting?

[00:29:06] Okay

[00:29:07] Aaron Rogers

[00:29:08] Rick

[00:29:09] Rick come back to us

[00:29:11] okay

[00:29:12] this isn't on fire

[00:29:14] okay we gotta stay on topic

[00:29:17] all right

[00:29:18] but

[00:29:20] Q

[00:29:21] not that Q okay

[00:29:23] Q that he wants to potentially vote out Kenzie

[00:29:29] and he says that Kenzie dodged a bullet here tonight

[00:29:35] it's I wonder if she really dodged the bullet

[00:29:38] because that's what he was saying last tribal wasn't it

[00:29:40] that it was gonna be Kenzie

[00:29:41] so what do you think would have happened

[00:29:43] because I think this was gonna be a fascinating tribal council

[00:29:46] that we got to that we didn't get to see

[00:29:49] and I think that it really hurt Q

[00:29:53] the Bhanu did not have a vote at this tribal council

[00:29:55] like I feel like that if Bhanu keeps his vote

[00:29:59] and Q is like Bhanu you stick with me

[00:30:02] we're voting Kenzie tonight

[00:30:04] and if Q

[00:30:06] and has Q and Bhanu and he goes to Tiffany

[00:30:09] I feel like that he can strong arm Tiffany

[00:30:12] to vote out Kenzie

[00:30:13] but if Bhanu doesn't have a vote

[00:30:17] how are they getting two votes on Kenzie

[00:30:22] yeah and I actually was when Bhanu at the journey

[00:30:25] was like oh I won a white rock

[00:30:26] I hope I get the white rock

[00:30:27] I was going are you crazy what's wrong with you

[00:30:29] but to your point could have worked out well

[00:30:32] although I just

[00:30:34] I go back to my thing about the dramatic guys on the tribe

[00:30:36] I don't think Q is strong arming Tiff

[00:30:38] I think Tiff is doing what she wants

[00:30:40] and she's bringing Q with her

[00:30:43] and that Q's just he showed us last time

[00:30:45] I'm not doing the move without Tiff

[00:30:46] I think Tiff just would have said no

[00:30:48] let's get rid of Bhanu he's a liability

[00:30:50] and Q would have gone with her

[00:30:51] I just I think it was the much stronger personality

[00:30:55] and then really like the game of chicken there becomes

[00:30:58] okay so if Q is like hey I've got Bhanu

[00:31:00] we're putting two votes that you're gonna draw rocks here

[00:31:04] if you don't end up flipping

[00:31:07] I'm serious Bhanu is up for it

[00:31:11] so you better switch over

[00:31:13] does it puts Tiffany in this in the situation

[00:31:15] would Tiffany play her idol for Kenzie?

[00:31:20] I don't think it would get there

[00:31:22] I don't think he would even push it

[00:31:24] with Tiffany that far

[00:31:25] see I think he would

[00:31:26] I really get the sense that he

[00:31:28] I mean all episode

[00:31:30] he talked about the difference between a liability

[00:31:32] and a threat

[00:31:33] and he feels like that a liability

[00:31:36] you can work with a threat

[00:31:38] you cannot

[00:31:39] what's your feeling of just about that statement

[00:31:43] that last tribal Jess was the liability

[00:31:46] and Kenzie was the threat

[00:31:48] and he said I want to get rid of Jett

[00:31:50] or I want to get rid of Kenzie

[00:31:51] but I'm not gonna do without Tiffany

[00:31:53] went to Tiff and Tiff said no

[00:31:54] and he said okay

[00:31:55] so I just feel like history would repeat itself

[00:31:59] that's just the way I feel about it

[00:32:01] but if I was wrong and he pressed Tiff to that

[00:32:06] I kind of feel like

[00:32:08] I don't know

[00:32:08] I don't know if Tiff is so strategic

[00:32:11] that she'd say okay

[00:32:12] I'll pick my battles

[00:32:13] I'll go with Q on this one

[00:32:14] I don't want to draw rocks

[00:32:16] or if that would light a fire under her

[00:32:19] and you go are you serious?

[00:32:20] Okay

[00:32:21] and take control of things

[00:32:22] like you said with her idol

[00:32:24] I can see it going either way

[00:32:27] yeah

[00:32:28] do you think that this Yanno tribe

[00:32:30] we will ultimately get this tribal council

[00:32:32] this four person tribal council

[00:32:35] it's hard for me to pick them to win a challenge

[00:32:39] so I do think we'll get this four person

[00:32:41] okay, so we're gonna get this four person tribal council

[00:32:43] with three votes eventually

[00:32:46] how do you think it will go

[00:32:47] do you think that it will eventually

[00:32:48] just be three votes for Bono?

[00:32:53] No, I think that

[00:32:56] there I think that

[00:32:59] well it's not looking at the preview

[00:33:02] I do think it'll go three votes against Bono

[00:33:04] I think they'll find out

[00:33:05] that Bono totally threw them under the bus

[00:33:07] and Q will feel the trade as the others

[00:33:10] like Q's probably the one who told the others

[00:33:13] after Bono told him

[00:33:14] so yeah I do think if this tribe goes

[00:33:16] Bono will go

[00:33:17] how do you play with someone who

[00:33:20] just cannot keep a secret

[00:33:22] and who gets upset with you

[00:33:24] when you leave him out of it

[00:33:25] it's like you can't have it both ways

[00:33:27] so Rick, I was thinking back to your season

[00:33:30] and I don't know if this is necessarily

[00:33:33] like an apples to apples

[00:33:35] but you all played with Big Wendy

[00:33:38] and Big Wendy certainly

[00:33:40] at least as it pertains to the chickens

[00:33:42] had a mind of her own

[00:33:44] but was that the case in terms of

[00:33:45] like the voting in the tribe as well?

[00:33:49] Absolutely, she was dead set

[00:33:52] on sticking with the rain on that first vote

[00:33:57] and then from that

[00:33:58] it was just going after Kelly went worth

[00:34:02] and Kelly was in our tribe

[00:34:05] or in our little core alliance

[00:34:06] but David and I were exploring

[00:34:08] getting rid of Kelly secretly

[00:34:10] so we went to Wendy a number of times

[00:34:12] to kind of see if there was any flexibility

[00:34:15] and there's just no flexibility

[00:34:17] and I was naive as a first time player

[00:34:19] and going hey, let's use her to get rid of Wendy

[00:34:23] and we'll go on but David right

[00:34:25] who was a much more seasoned player was like listen

[00:34:29] this is not gonna pay off down the road

[00:34:32] Kelly will work with us strategically

[00:34:34] which she did with David

[00:34:35] because David was so good at that

[00:34:37] whereas Wendy like there's never gonna be any way

[00:34:40] other than Wendy's way.

[00:34:42] So it ended up us voting her out

[00:34:46] we got that weird tried swap

[00:34:47] and the other tried voted her out

[00:34:49] but that kept her at the bottom.

[00:34:50] Yeah, I think this is a really interesting conversation

[00:34:53] this idea between the liabilities

[00:34:55] and the threats

[00:34:56] and I understand what Q is saying

[00:34:58] but I really do think that it's so early in the game

[00:35:01] it's only day seven even a 26 day game

[00:35:05] I just I don't think that you can make it work

[00:35:08] with a liability like Bhanu

[00:35:10] for the entirety of this game.

[00:35:13] I think that Boston Rob and Philip

[00:35:15] is such an exception to the rule

[00:35:17] and you have to remember this is Boston Rob

[00:35:19] on his fourth time out with Philip

[00:35:22] it's not just anybody

[00:35:25] you know Rob can make it look easy

[00:35:26] it's not easy to get to the end

[00:35:29] with somebody who is such a wild card.

[00:35:33] And even Philip could keep a secret

[00:35:35] when he needed to I mean

[00:35:37] he would he would get a little hostile at times

[00:35:40] and when they did have the numbers

[00:35:41] like maybe he'd let the can out of the back

[00:35:43] and rub it in a little bit

[00:35:45] but like he was a good ally who would listen to Rob

[00:35:48] and do what Rob told him to do

[00:35:50] even though like you said

[00:35:51] like a lot of coaching up

[00:35:54] an effort went into that

[00:35:55] more than a first time players

[00:35:56] gonna have because they're so worried about everything else.

[00:35:59] But Bhanu just doesn't seem coachable

[00:36:03] as coachable as Philip.

[00:36:04] Mm hmm.

[00:36:05] Yeah I think Bhanu is gonna ultimately

[00:36:07] like go with his heart

[00:36:09] and ultimately you know

[00:36:11] I don't think he's going to

[00:36:13] if it's somebody that he

[00:36:15] you know Q feels like I've got him

[00:36:17] he's always gonna do what I say

[00:36:19] if Bhanu you know falls in love with Liz

[00:36:22] and I mean like as a friend

[00:36:24] like he falls in love with like her as a person

[00:36:27] he won't vote her out

[00:36:28] if Q says vote her out.

[00:36:31] I totally agree, I totally agree

[00:36:33] and we've already seen the way that he

[00:36:36] twist things in his mind

[00:36:39] it's like there's no way

[00:36:40] Q can really communicate with him

[00:36:42] without him thinking that

[00:36:44] Q even though Q is telling him exactly

[00:36:47] I want to take you and make you my number two

[00:36:48] who gets no votes at the end

[00:36:50] Bhanu is still like he's tricking me

[00:36:52] he wants to fool me somehow

[00:36:54] and if he just doesn't trust you

[00:36:57] then how can he be your person

[00:37:00] that you drag along?

[00:37:01] You need that person to trust you

[00:37:03] to want to be there with you.

[00:37:05] Yeah so I don't think this is gonna

[00:37:07] work out great with trying to

[00:37:09] you know make it work with Bhanu.

[00:37:12] No he's he he'll have to win

[00:37:15] those million hearts quick

[00:37:17] but pre-emerge you might have

[00:37:19] to win those million hearts.

[00:37:20] Luckily that's not something

[00:37:22] you have to get the final tribal work.

[00:37:24] I did run that one past my wife

[00:37:25] of that if I went out to go play survivor

[00:37:29] I said okay well the bad news honey

[00:37:32] I didn't win the money

[00:37:34] the good news is I won a million hearts.

[00:37:44] She didn't say that didn't impress her.

[00:37:46] No she wasn't into that?

[00:37:47] No she was like less it's code

[00:37:50] for the CEO award because that's really

[00:37:52] just one hard that's like a hundred

[00:37:53] thousand hearts and sometimes 15,000

[00:37:56] hearts. Yeah there you go.

[00:37:59] Yeah it seems more genuine but anyone

[00:38:01] else I'd be like oh get these

[00:38:03] influencers out of the game.

[00:38:04] It seems genuine from yes Bhanu leader

[00:38:07] in the clubhouse for the CEO award

[00:38:08] we will say right I think that

[00:38:11] that's that's got to be a safe bet

[00:38:14] right now.

[00:38:15] Next week boy just this tribe really

[00:38:19] prove that you know God loves them

[00:38:22] and doesn't like random.

[00:38:24] They all prayed to God like please hurt

[00:38:28] someone on the other tribe to keep us

[00:38:30] in the game.

[00:38:31] Yeah nothing else going on the world

[00:38:33] for God to worry about it.

[00:38:34] He's looking at Fiji.

[00:38:36] Yep God does indeed have a vested

[00:38:39] interest in survivor and very much so

[00:38:42] is really big big Bhanu Stan

[00:38:47] Bhanu prayed and this miracle did

[00:38:51] happen through his vessel Dr. Will

[00:38:54] through his vessel yes a rupture

[00:38:58] a rupture disk bulging disk

[00:39:00] potentially ended up being the

[00:39:02] miracle that Bhanu was waiting for.

[00:39:05] Yeah he works in a serious way sorry

[00:39:09] Brandon yeah yeah I mean probably

[00:39:13] tough pill to swallow for Brandon

[00:39:15] that the miracle that they prayed for

[00:39:17] was your injury and just no shame

[00:39:21] in being like Jeff we pray this was

[00:39:24] a we we pray to God to bring this

[00:39:27] happen and Jeff is so good he's

[00:39:30] like yeah I get it guys like yeah

[00:39:33] I understand how this this game is

[00:39:34] played yeah okay

[00:39:36] yeah a lot to deal with for Brandon

[00:39:39] okay I'll tell the wins yeah we got

[00:39:43] to see just a little bit of the other

[00:39:45] tribes we talked a little bit about

[00:39:47] Brandon leaving the game.

[00:39:50] The we've really seen the Nami tribe

[00:39:53] through the eyes of Venus a lot over

[00:39:56] these last couple of episodes so

[00:39:58] what do you think about the plight

[00:39:59] of Venus can we start by talking about

[00:40:03] obviously paying close attention to

[00:40:05] handing the idol over right.

[00:40:07] Mm-hmm I mean I've been I've been

[00:40:09] loving that little plot line with

[00:40:11] the idol coming to Venus.

[00:40:13] Being first of all yeah Venus every

[00:40:16] time Jeff was not walking to Venus

[00:40:19] Jeff was walking to the tribe and

[00:40:20] here's Venus arms fully extended

[00:40:23] every time I think so does getting a

[00:40:25] little too so so wild reaction

[00:40:28] but don't reach for it every time.

[00:40:30] Rick I didn't see tonight what

[00:40:31] happened with Jeff handing over the

[00:40:33] idol Jeff's walking over handing out

[00:40:36] has the idol stretch and before he

[00:40:38] even get close to him he's closest

[00:40:39] to soda yeah here comes Venus like

[00:40:41] she has every she's trying to intercept

[00:40:43] reaching out and it's something

[00:40:46] everyone notices like a sauce gone

[00:40:48] around there the idol like why put

[00:40:50] that on yourself she does it every

[00:40:52] time and that's why so does

[00:40:54] react if I think she immediately

[00:40:56] hands it behind her to hunter but

[00:40:57] it's like a clear message of I'm not

[00:40:59] letting anyone I don't want to have

[00:41:01] to get this and it's like you don't

[00:41:03] need to get it every time Venus.

[00:41:04] Let's calm down about reaching for

[00:41:06] the idol yeah well I think she wants

[00:41:07] it because she hasn't gotten to

[00:41:09] have it so it keeps taking it from her.

[00:41:12] When she gets it first so that has

[00:41:14] to take it from her now I gotta go

[00:41:16] back and watch this I gotta go back

[00:41:17] and watch the very first time so

[00:41:20] just grabbing it from her would

[00:41:22] wild but but really it's like take

[00:41:25] your turn you're you know let

[00:41:26] somebody else get the idol for once

[00:41:28] okay um yeah I gotta go back

[00:41:31] and watch the the instant replay.

[00:41:35] Rob you're gonna love it.

[00:41:36] I'm loving yeah well they gave us

[00:41:38] the instant replay a couple episodes

[00:41:40] ago yeah that's why I was paying such

[00:41:43] close attention this time I'm excited.

[00:41:45] Yeah I forgot to be zone in on that okay um

[00:41:50] but yet for Venus uh she said hunter

[00:41:53] we gotta pay attention to hunter

[00:41:55] everybody else is loving hunter and

[00:41:56] that was like the setup for his

[00:41:58] whole backstory uh they called

[00:42:00] the new survivor McGiver which is a great

[00:42:04] name. I love that. I don't think he has

[00:42:06] anything on window hauling in terms of

[00:42:08] making furniture out there but here's

[00:42:11] the difference between he and window

[00:42:12] when it comes to making furniture okay

[00:42:14] window makes communal furniture

[00:42:17] that makes the tribe happy yeah Rob

[00:42:19] how would you feel if someone out there

[00:42:21] made a really comfortable bed

[00:42:23] for only themselves now do we know

[00:42:25] that was only for himself but how do we

[00:42:27] know that it wasn't like random was

[00:42:28] complaining about uh hey my arm is uh

[00:42:32] gone out on me from the bamboo maybe he

[00:42:35] was working on a project for him. I thought

[00:42:37] he said that he was making himself a bed

[00:42:40] and and I wrote it down that he was

[00:42:42] making himself a bed because I was like

[00:42:43] that's wildly putting a target on your

[00:42:46] back you can't have any personal items

[00:42:49] out there Chris Underwood when I

[00:42:50] returned from the edge gave me this

[00:42:51] beautiful like coconut ball that he

[00:42:53] scraped out meticulously because

[00:42:55] there's nothing else to do and the

[00:42:57] second I pulled it out it became a

[00:42:59] communal ball and I couldn't it's like

[00:43:01] do I risk putting a target on myself

[00:43:03] by grabbing the ball back it's not worth it

[00:43:05] yeah but even if he makes a bed for

[00:43:07] himself that I thought that that bed

[00:43:10] gets a lot of rotation you'll use

[00:43:12] like I feel like okay all right let me

[00:43:13] get an hour on the bed let me get an

[00:43:15] hour on the bed. Yeah especially once

[00:43:18] you vote him out in me you take his bed

[00:43:21] target yeah 100% then you

[00:43:25] rotate at night as well. Yeah that in

[00:43:28] survivor the Amazon if I may go

[00:43:32] back into ancient history for a second

[00:43:34] there was we did get access to a bed

[00:43:38] briefly it was something that was

[00:43:41] oh you kids were crazy yeah I mean

[00:43:43] yes in the auction it was something

[00:43:47] that when butch luckily one breakfast

[00:43:52] and Jeff and Jeff famously asked butch

[00:43:56] butch where's your favorite place to eat

[00:43:57] breakfast and butch responded cracker

[00:44:00] barrel which really sent Jeff into

[00:44:04] orbit and need to correct him and say no

[00:44:07] bed it's bad where else do you like to eat

[00:44:11] breakfast and so he we got like a

[00:44:13] cut but it did not last long before

[00:44:18] it was a very unfortunate

[00:44:21] it didn't it butch had gastrointestinal

[00:44:25] distress which then it was short

[00:44:30] live the bed oh my god that'll get you

[00:44:33] moaning out and I don't know what

[00:44:36] happened to an episode I think

[00:44:37] production took it away after how do

[00:44:39] you lose survivor I just crapped the

[00:44:41] bed out there

[00:44:46] yeah the sad story okay

[00:44:51] so we'll see what's going on with Venus

[00:44:55] then this was so interesting to me Rick

[00:44:58] on the seagull tribe that the episode

[00:45:00] opens and we get like a flashback

[00:45:03] this is seagull four days earlier

[00:45:07] it's like what the hell but we've never

[00:45:08] done this before like and I thought

[00:45:10] we were going to like have like a flashback

[00:45:11] for like one second and in the entire

[00:45:14] context of what we saw at seagull other than

[00:45:17] when Ben came back from the journey

[00:45:21] was this flashback and I feel like that

[00:45:23] this is very odd and weird like I

[00:45:28] feel like that survivor would just like

[00:45:30] show it to us and act like it was

[00:45:31] happening in this episode like on the

[00:45:33] one hand like I appreciate like okay

[00:45:36] we're really sticking to the narrative

[00:45:38] of like okay this is when this happened

[00:45:40] in the story but that was just I thought

[00:45:44] such an odd choice

[00:45:47] what was the what was the scene it was

[00:45:49] gem finding the idol oh yeah

[00:45:52] when they cut back to four days earlier

[00:45:55] so it could have been in the two hour

[00:45:58] episode no we have got to get you know

[00:46:03] it's just weird that they chose to do

[00:46:04] that it's it's an unusual choice for

[00:46:06] the show yeah it was because even

[00:46:11] even as we talk about it it was just

[00:46:13] kind of out of the narrative but I guess

[00:46:15] do you think they just got the whole show

[00:46:17] together and we're like oh we forgot seagull

[00:46:19] I don't know we we totally forgot maybe

[00:46:22] it was that that random found the idol

[00:46:25] in the last episode like okay we don't

[00:46:27] need to show the same thing twice like

[00:46:29] okay put this in this episode and then

[00:46:31] like they could have just shown gem

[00:46:33] finding the idol last week and shown us

[00:46:34] Taylor Swift versus Metallica

[00:46:36] this week

[00:46:39] yeah I bet it was I bet you're right

[00:46:41] that they just didn't want to go to idle

[00:46:43] crazy and I like you said I like that

[00:46:45] they're honest about it like why not

[00:46:47] even though it's a little weird

[00:46:48] it's interesting I feel like that in

[00:46:50] the past they would just say like okay

[00:46:51] this happened in this day and then

[00:46:52] you do the exact like actually we found

[00:46:54] the idol on day two

[00:46:56] yeah well and now it's just like you

[00:46:58] know what we've they're used to us

[00:47:00] jumping time now like our audience

[00:47:03] understands this is something we do so

[00:47:05] we don't have to hide it yeah um but I

[00:47:07] I don't know I I totally forgot that

[00:47:10] scene happened yeah good for them okay

[00:47:12] so gem has the idol but we'll see if

[00:47:14] Sega never goes to a tribal council

[00:47:17] I wonder um do you have any sense of like

[00:47:20] because I think that uh all the players

[00:47:21] who played in Fiji can I deal the beaches

[00:47:24] and figure out like where they're going

[00:47:26] to be do you get this like do you have

[00:47:28] any sort of idea of like which of

[00:47:30] these beaches they're likely to merge

[00:47:32] to um Yan who is I think the one that they

[00:47:36] most often merge at that was that was

[00:47:38] okay that's the beach I spent most of

[00:47:39] the time because Rick what will happen

[00:47:41] if Sega never loses a challenge gem has

[00:47:45] lost her vote until they lose a challenge

[00:47:47] are we going to get like an episode in

[00:47:50] like maybe next week or the week after

[00:47:52] where gems like hey I got to throw the

[00:47:55] challenge so I can get my vote back

[00:47:57] before we get to the merge oh man

[00:48:03] that would be that would be really

[00:48:05] interesting beware I mean that makes

[00:48:07] sense that it would be something but

[00:48:10] don't don't these things typically just

[00:48:11] reset at the merge isn't it just like okay

[00:48:14] that's dead we start again

[00:48:16] I just look if she was going to not to get

[00:48:19] like too much into the edit but if that was

[00:48:22] gonna happen and she was gonna find the

[00:48:23] thing and then if she just wasn't gonna

[00:48:25] get her vote back I just feel like they

[00:48:27] wouldn't even show us her finding the

[00:48:29] clue that's a good point unless I

[00:48:32] wonder if it's one of those things where

[00:48:34] you know it's like okay it's dead now can

[00:48:36] I just break the box open it uses a fake

[00:48:39] like yeah you know it's like okay it's not

[00:48:41] live let's just uh I don't know it's got to

[00:48:45] come in yeah I would think it would come

[00:48:46] into play it some in some way for them

[00:48:48] to have stuck it into this episode

[00:48:52] especially when it was a thing that didn't

[00:48:54] necessarily belong yeah you know I want

[00:48:57] to ask you with this idle hunt also

[00:48:59] it was a public idle hunt there was a

[00:49:02] little bit of talk of like what the

[00:49:04] public idle hunt uh was like in all of your

[00:49:07] idle hunting did you ever do the public idle

[00:49:09] hunt we did do the public idle hunt and it

[00:49:13] starts off it's basically just like okay

[00:49:16] hunt and no one's gonna be at camp talking

[00:49:18] about how you're hunting like you might

[00:49:20] start off in a little group but then

[00:49:22] you're definitely just spreading out

[00:49:24] any as a frenzy like people running around

[00:49:27] these folks seem pretty organized

[00:49:29] and with each other but I know like David

[00:49:31] right and I were in our own little pod

[00:49:33] looking out for each other trying to find it

[00:49:35] and it just turns into madhouse so it's

[00:49:38] really I'm not surprised she was able to

[00:49:39] sneak it in there because there's so much

[00:49:41] going on but also like good for her

[00:49:43] even trying to sneak it in there I feel

[00:49:45] like most of the players this season

[00:49:47] would have just been like hey you don't

[00:49:49] look what I am also good for her for being

[00:49:51] able to get back to the location that

[00:49:53] she found the clue in the middle of the

[00:49:56] night in the dark that's pretty good

[00:49:59] dude for real those islands are no joke

[00:50:02] especially when it's cloudy or the

[00:50:05] moons not full I got lost out there I

[00:50:08] had to production had to come find me

[00:50:10] one time coming back from an interview

[00:50:12] after tribal council I could not find

[00:50:14] my way it was pitch black yeah and

[00:50:16] what did you just hollered until

[00:50:17] somebody found you I was so depressed

[00:50:22] that night tribal and not got my way again

[00:50:25] and like I just got lost and I just felt

[00:50:27] so defeated that I was just staying in

[00:50:29] there and finally I guess they were on

[00:50:31] the walkies like Rick hasn't come back

[00:50:34] to camp that's really have eyes on

[00:50:36] devins so finally I see like a light

[00:50:38] flashing around like I'm over here

[00:53:03] listeners I see we got a lot of questions

[00:53:06] here for Rick and we'll get into them

[00:53:09] I just want to take a moment and highlight

[00:53:11] you know Rick we opened up a new tier for

[00:53:14] the patrons this week they call this one

[00:53:18] the jolensky several mean seven brand new

[00:53:21] seven dollar tier that we opened up uh... that we've got that for

[00:53:25] one more day and then uh... it's gone for good we said one week for the

[00:53:30] jolensky tier so you can check that out uh... rob is a website dot com slash

[00:53:35] patron and then we've got plenty of legendary legendary

[00:53:40] legendary for sure okay all right um

[00:53:44] let's go ahead and uh... check out uh... some questions okay um

[00:53:51] how about from

[00:53:54] see we talked about uh... a few of these already okay um

[00:54:01] docs wants to say if you get pulled from the game should you ask Jeff if you

[00:54:05] can have one on one with your tribe made so you could say goodbye

[00:54:08] and you could bequeath your advantage

[00:54:12] that is really interesting i wonder i guess that's what I thought that down

[00:54:18] instantly like yeah i think no you know we're here it's time to go

[00:54:23] like the it's been tell um but it doesn't hurt to ask

[00:54:27] you know all you can do is say no okay um

[00:54:32] Ashley says will a swap happen soon since the teams are not at all even Rick

[00:54:37] i really felt like about an hour and fifteen minutes into this episode

[00:54:42] i felt like i knew how this was all gonna play out i was like okay

[00:54:46] bonus going home and then next week we're swapping

[00:54:49] and then i really feel like this random medevac

[00:54:53] ends it up changing everything yeah i don't think i mean i think they have the swaps

[00:54:59] planned i don't think it comes when someone needs it um but i wish there was a

[00:55:06] swap i want there to be a swap my my mom and dad were

[00:55:09] pitching me the idea that they're like this is the problem with three tribes

[00:55:13] with two tribes you get rid of one or two people

[00:55:16] and you're back in it but with three tribes you're just

[00:55:19] you're decimated yeah i mean if you get rid of a strong person in that first

[00:55:24] tribal there's no bouncing back and you don't want to be

[00:55:27] the people that voted out straight the first tribal like that's not what you're

[00:55:31] going out there to do even if it's the smart thing to do so

[00:55:35] yeah i think they need a swap i think if they win one it's like

[00:55:39] you know even a blind squirrel finds a nut i don't expect that to carry over

[00:55:43] yeah because last season we had the um

[00:55:47] the uh uh little lulu tribe uh they lost the first three

[00:55:54] his tribe names get harder to remember uh you're

[00:55:57] correct uh you're amazing but they went over three

[00:56:00] and then it was like okay swap time the only thing that makes me feel like

[00:56:05] that maybe uh that they they can't or they won't do

[00:56:09] that is the way that the mechanics work for these idols this season

[00:56:14] yeah that it would just be that they need to stay on that island

[00:56:18] yeah to get the key dot get that box yeah um that's a really good point

[00:56:22] they kind of lock themselves in and that way didn't they

[00:56:27] yep okay all right here's a question from uh

[00:56:31] Philip Marshall question for devins what is the

[00:56:35] dun dun dun dun dun dun breaking news of the journey for this week

[00:56:40] oh that's a good one uh i like to just do these off the top

[00:56:43] so dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun this just into the survivor newsroom

[00:56:49] three castaways show up for the journey and they're joined by god

[00:56:55] bono come on god prayers answered as random is ripped from the game

[00:57:01] with a numb right side and everything else left behind

[00:57:08] stay tuned that's very straight at good job still got it

[00:57:14] hey hey i got a question for you um yes yes did you have any thoughts about the tarp when the

[00:57:25] oh uh not particularly did you have any uh tarp thoughts Rick thank you for asking

[00:57:31] Rob I did have some tarp thoughts uh i was like whoa what are they getting a tarp for that

[00:57:37] you know obviously all of us hold pain in the ass survivors like oh we didn't get a tarp

[00:57:43] and then my immediate next thought was oh no i wonder what the survivor gods know is coming

[00:57:50] weather wise that they felt like we need to start handing out tarps um so you might be in trouble

[00:57:56] okay Rick so this is interesting so uh that you you feel like that survivor production like has

[00:58:02] like you know that they can see that they've got the 10 day forecast so that you feel like and

[00:58:08] I've never like mapped this out like the time when they give out tarps you feel like it's in

[00:58:15] seasons where they can tell that there is some bad weather potentially on the horizon not exactly

[00:58:22] not exactly i think my my thing is i just didn't remember them giving out tarps at all lately i know

[00:58:28] on our season we didn't get a tarp at all like we wanted it real bad and it never showed up as an

[00:58:32] option um so i was just like wow i can't believe they had a tarp but i remember past seasons

[00:58:37] in the midst of like it raining like crazy them being like you know what we're going to give you a

[00:58:42] tarp or we're going to give you this to alleviate some of that so this just made me wonder i wonder

[00:58:47] if they're getting out in front of it instead of have you know giving them a tarp in the middle of

[00:58:52] the rain storm and having fans be like oh they gave them a tarp it's like let them win a tarp

[00:58:56] before they get crushed by whatever's coming okay yeah well keep an eye out on the weather if like

[00:59:02] episode five or six like they have like a cyclone coming yeah Christian Hubicki is in the chat

[00:59:08] and he said oh yes we got the pity tarp after cyclone josey tried to murder pat

[00:59:15] there you go pity tarp yeah and this this isn't going to help me prove all the people who say

[00:59:20] I'm a weatherman wrong news anchor never don't know weather yeah oh and night in the

[00:59:27] chat also says the tools came with fruit on season 43 oh my gosh all the all stars are in the chat

[00:59:33] people are like why aren't they talking to rob no no look we love that we love when the players

[00:59:38] are here in the chat to add in but yeah always saying that traditionally uh tools come with fruit

[00:59:45] not a tarp there you yeah well there you go exactly oh and night another uh commanders fan i'm

[00:59:53] putting up that he's he's kind of gone over to the saints he kind of bailed on us but I think

[00:59:57] he's excited yeah okay we still love him that's nice that's nice you haven't turned your back on him

[01:00:05] okay all right um about uh speaking of Owen mark Jackson says is Venus taking Owen's crown as

[01:00:12] the new charlie brown or I guess Charlotte brown I don't think so I don't think that Venus is

[01:00:21] putting in the same effort that charlie brown and Owen put in I think I think the what's so tragic

[01:00:27] about Owen and charlie brown is like they're trying to get you to be on their side socially they're

[01:00:33] trying to do all these things and Venus is not putting her best foot forward and meeting her

[01:00:39] tri-baits halfway I don't think yeah she's she's looking at what's what they're doing to her versus

[01:00:44] what she's putting out to them yeah I think she has a long way to go to get to you know sort of like

[01:00:48] this the Owen Jake level of like the issue was that they had like many different times where they

[01:00:54] felt like okay I'm back like I'm back in this and then the proverbial football gets uh ripped away

[01:01:01] Venus had that a little bit with like okay Randans advantage that's my salvation

[01:01:06] and then Randan gets ripped from the game we got to get it to happen like five or six more times

[01:01:12] before we get to the Owen Jake levels yeah good start good start definitely is just

[01:01:18] she's the leader in the clubhouse for that so far okay how about uh we got another

[01:01:25] good question here and um Ryan Patterson wants to know is the new orange tribe person Medevac

[01:01:33] curse Jackson Matt and now right what about Bruce Bruce he was on purple Tika

[01:01:41] uh yes so that I'm glad you're here Rob yeah the orange that's it I don't think there's a

[01:01:51] Medevac curse no although man it just I do feel bad for Raiden because it's like he's sleeping

[01:01:59] like Bruce you're in a challenge you went too hard Matt you attempted fate climbing the thing like

[01:02:03] Brandon yeah you slept you sleep wrong that's a poor that's a poor guy yeah mm-hmm

[01:02:11] that's that's a sign you're you getting up there you sleep wrong completely good throw off your

[01:02:17] survivor game hey man I'm gonna be 40 April hey look people were knocking Liz couldn't sleep

[01:02:24] for 200 hours guess what she made it through the game there you go so there's maybe some wisdom

[01:02:30] there okay this is an interesting question from Megan McNannis Rob if you went on a first date with

[01:02:38] Hunter and he invited you back to his survivor challenge bunker would you go on a second date now

[01:02:46] I don't know what the dating status is for Hunter hmm I think I might weird me out a little bit

[01:02:55] if you went if you went to into somebody's challenge dungeon Rick it you definitely need the

[01:03:04] context if there's no context I'm a teacher I make these for my students it's super creepy it's

[01:03:13] super weird and even with the context it's like a little much how much your students love this

[01:03:21] like you get him a basketball but uh but no I you know he's got a lot going on he got a full ride

[01:03:28] to medical school so look and he might lately he can have whatever he wants in his garage I'm I'm

[01:03:34] sold and pretty decent chance at a million dollars and a million hearts there you go and he can

[01:03:39] throw sandbags and put them on platforms like that's what I look for in a mate mm-hmm yeah okay

[01:03:45] and Beckadethan's conspiracy and bags on some platform oh really no okay all right

[01:03:52] it's good um Elizabeth wants to know if there's a swap do we think that Bonu can make a comeback Rick

[01:03:59] yeah I think Bonu can absolutely make a comeback it's you know it's survivor and once you get

[01:04:04] to emerge like absolutely he can he can slide by he's the least of anybody's worries as long as

[01:04:10] you're not telling him anything and if you can start weaponizing him and like telling him things

[01:04:14] you one other people to know like there's a lot going on with Bonu and we see every season or

[01:04:20] every couple seasons like someone you think is doomed expand and grow and become a player and

[01:04:26] that could be bonu Rick I for everybody that's counting out Bonu that well I've got some news for

[01:04:34] you don't get it twisted because a bonu still has a lot of zero vote finalist upside okay

[01:04:41] that's no count him out yeah he's he's got he's definitely the seasons fishback in a lot of ways

[01:04:50] what I'm what which which ways Rick they're both I think they're both tall they're both

[01:04:55] in pretty good shape um emotional outburst both of them both of them pray for other the downfall

[01:05:04] of others I think they have a lot a lot I like I think I would enjoy spending time with Bonu I love

[01:05:11] spending time with Steven fishback yeah yeah yeah okay um so many questions okay um Tristan says do

[01:05:23] you think the Kenzie will be targeted first come merge to the bonu spilling the the shy to Ben

[01:05:30] and Liz uh most likely she would intimidate the other tribe first what do you think about the

[01:05:37] uber social Kenzie yeah I think that she will go out early if she gets to the merge I think she's

[01:05:46] got Caleb kind of written all over where she's gonna play way too hard socially be everybody's friends

[01:05:52] meanwhile they're all telling each other like do you know that her and Tiff were mean to Jess do you

[01:05:57] know that they picked on bonu do you know that they tricked so Jess and that playing a fake idol

[01:06:03] and she'll just sink her own ship I think she as much as she thinks no one now says playing hard

[01:06:10] enough she's playing so hard yeah she's playing so hard and really it's it's so good like what she's

[01:06:17] doing but I just think that we're in the era of survivor where everybody is so tapped in that she's

[01:06:25] too good exactly and that's why I brought Caleb up yeah like best social player out there like

[01:06:30] Kenzie I would love to hang out with Kenzie on an island and talk I think she could meet me on

[01:06:34] whatever level I wanted her to and that's exactly why I vote her out like the rest of us are over here

[01:06:40] and it's like wow she keeps walking off with the people we want to vote out like she she just never

[01:06:45] pulls back yeah too much ris is bad thing yeah for us okay dev has a question what survivor moment

[01:06:56] made you say that does not rock Rick bin I think has has become my favorite of the season I love

[01:07:07] been he's been very fun are you a big rock guy I you know I like some rock I listen to everything and

[01:07:16] I don't know any of it real well like the who's my favorite band so I like rock I love Metallica

[01:07:21] intersaying man for Virginia Tech like huge eyes but I'm you know I also love Taylor Swift

[01:07:28] but I can't compete with Charlie for Taylor or with Ben for rock like I'd be a fraud okay so I'll

[01:07:33] stick to 90s hip hop all right so is there a moment tonight that you thought did not rock the moment

[01:07:40] I thought did not rock is when um Bono just melted down to Kenzie and Kenzie was just a way of

[01:07:49] mermaid dragon yeah exactly exactly and I just thought both of them played it poorly but but more so

[01:07:57] like I felt Kenzie I was like I could probably do that after this amount of time and we're losing

[01:08:02] like I got to deal with you breaking down in front of me again that moment did not rock to me okay

[01:08:09] let me see what else also what did not rock yes Charlie I really like Charlie give the best back to

[01:08:16] bin okay you've you've had your best time you gotta give it back to Ben now yeah

[01:08:23] it's too nice to take it back he's too nice all right and how about uh andras is the be where

[01:08:31] advantage even transferable oh right the good question that is a good question I guess it's not

[01:08:41] right you wouldn't be able to transfer it in the middle of doing it because beware yeah wow

[01:08:49] she should be on the show instead of me first Christian then Owen and now who was that

[01:08:52] that was andrew oh andrew dang it good job Andrew okay all right wreck anything else from tonight's

[01:09:01] survivor uh let me you know I took notes for you yes oh that's so nice I uh what speaking of Bono

[01:09:10] having new life you know like Nick Wilson who must not renamed Emily flippin like there's all

[01:09:16] these people who got saved by circumstance a quitter or a medevac and went on to do great things I

[01:09:23] can see it in bono yep uh you feel like that that bono has great things potentially in his future

[01:09:31] I think he could you know showing us a lot of bono which would make me think oh he's around

[01:09:36] but he's also just giving a lot yeah exactly so I wouldn't be surprised either way but again if

[01:09:43] he makes to merge I feel really good about him um now I think that's everything man it was it

[01:09:49] it was a really fun episode um I didn't mean to go hard on bin in his poor hunter in his bed

[01:09:55] I think you're fine and you're fine and you're doing things for yourself out there okay

[01:10:01] okay well Rick hang on here a second because we have the somebody here at the podcast door

[01:10:06] and it's uh Taren Armstrong is here getting ready to talk about those Canadian wackadoodles over on

[01:10:14] big brother canada and are you're all ready to go ready to go uh and also by the way they finally

[01:10:23] gave us the pet peeve yes Dalton Ross of Rick's former uh co-host from surviving Snyder had

[01:10:31] the finally got the pet peeves any interesting ones that you saw Taren

[01:10:36] well Mariah has fantastic ones but I'm lodging a formal complaint because clearly one of

[01:10:41] the drafters paid him off do this to me okay to hold them back for me it's absurd it's it's wrong

[01:10:49] and it's concerning Rick and I think we should just the draft for survivor only based on pet peeves

[01:10:55] they did not give us them in the bios and only Dalton published them today and then lo and behold

[01:11:00] this is the one draft where I finally get the grenade I had Jolinsky uh oh um what a coincidence

[01:11:06] yes what was Mariah's pet peeve Taren oh so many things it was three paragraphs okay Rick would

[01:11:13] you remember what was your pet peeve from your bio my pet peeve well oh god what was my pet peeve

[01:11:21] it was something stupid I remember filling out that sheet and just hating having to fill out that

[01:11:25] sheet so badly um I don't know I don't know what my pet peeve is people asking me my pet peeves have

[01:11:33] it fill out sheets about my personality those are my pet peeves okay but I will say as a close person

[01:11:38] I feel like as someone who knows Dalton Ross and very well he you could buy him off he probably

[01:11:45] was bought off yeah for sale for sure I redo we're redoing the draft yes that's what I'm that's

[01:11:50] what I'm calling for yeah but no we're out I'll be giving extensive pet peeve analysis when I talk

[01:11:55] with Shannon this week okay for the the survivor global cross oh I didn't know you were keeping up

[01:12:01] with survivor a you uh well no okay the other one the other one yeah I'd like to say hey no more

[01:12:08] I might see you all straight away here Taren before I let you go uh that Doug wants to what was Jolinsky's

[01:12:14] pet peeve in hindsight it's no what I didn't get that far yeah okay it was a hard task yeah let's

[01:12:22] see Jolinsky said gum chewing which yeah okay okay Rob while Taren's here should we ask him for

[01:12:28] an in-depth look at Dr. Will definitely thought the doctor will tonight did anyone else feel like he
