[00:02:32] Hey everybody, what's going on? Rob Cesternino back here with a pre-season tradition like no other. We are finally going to be ready to kick off Survivor 51 when we take this a look with the man who started it all. Give it up for the purple pants, badass Bryce Isaiah. Robert! How are you doing? I am wonderful here.
[00:03:03] Yes. Excited for another season. The summer is coming to a close so that makes me a little sad but I am super excited and doing well. Yeah, I haven't talked to you the whole summer and it's not since Survivor 50, I don't think. What have you been up to all summer? I've just been, you know, working Robert and I've been getting my green thumb and toes together. I've been gardening and just really learning my house plants and so I've just been taking it nice and slow. I feel like I've been in a hibernation.
[00:03:33] Yes, okay. And you're in your hibernation, your social battery is charged. Are you ready to take on the fall and go back on tour? Well, we'll see. I don't know if my battery is still charged. I feel like with the new iPhone coming out. I feel like my battery is like the old iPhone. You charge it. The one you fold? Are you going to get that? No, nobody wants, I don't want that duo. That's the weirdest shape ever.
[00:04:01] No, I'm saying when you have an older phone, Robert, and they come out with the new phones, your old phones start acting like they don't know how to work. So I feel like my social battery, it feels like it's charged when I'm plugged in. But when I unplug it, it seems like it goes down relatively quickly. But I am excited to hit the road for Bryce and Wynn. We're going into a new open era. Yes. We're kicking off in New York and seven other cities. So I'm always excited to see the people and watch the vibe.
[00:04:29] Will the open era be any different for the Bryce and Wynn Presents tour? Well, I mean, we are entering into a new universe. And so I feel like it will be different. I feel like the theme is different and I feel like the energy is going to be different. So lots of surprises to expect. So we'll have to see. Yeah. But what does the open era mean to you? Because I don't really know what that means. I don't know what it is.
[00:04:59] It means, I don't, listen, I don't understand it myself that much either. At first I said, wait a minute, Survivor going poly? I didn't know. But I feel like it is going to be new twists and turns. Yeah. And I've always been in the, I guess, the new school or the new era. I really enjoyed 41 and 42.
[00:05:23] And so I'm excited to see what 51 and 52 are going to bring as far as just the people that they are bringing. The cast looks amazing. Um, I mean, I am kind of side eyeing because it doesn't look like some of the things that they promised, but I am always excited for a new season. So I really am excited though, because people didn't like the hourglass. I love the hourglass. I'm also just excited to see what the fans don't love.
[00:05:52] Because that's the one thing about the Survivor community where it's like, if they see something they don't like, they're going to be very vocal about it. And so I feel like, yeah, it's like sports. And so I'm excited just to see all of the new banter that's going to be happening. Yeah. I think that maybe the open era might be for you because I feel like that with a lot of the stuff that they tried in the new era, I think you were pretty open minded about, uh, like almost anything that they tried in the new era. I was, I enjoyed it. Listen, meet me.
[00:06:22] Not like old guys like me, like, uh, like since when we do this? What is, what the hell? I listen, as long as they keep them fire tokens back, back where they're at, I I'm happy with it. Um, and two tribes. Yeah. Is what really has me excited. Cause I feel like we've just had this three tribe format and let me be the first to tell you, it don't always work out how you think it's right. Right.
[00:06:48] So I'm excited to see this two tribe breakdown and to see these players are, I'm assuming like the old batch of new crops where they are survivor watchers. And so I'm curious to see how it's going to break down. Who's going to target what's, who's going to click together. So again, it's the open era. I'm excited. Okay. All right. We got 21 people to talk about.
[00:07:14] And if anybody happens to be new to this or checking this out because they've been watching big brother and this popped up in their algorithm. Of course, we're talking to the legendary survivor, Bryce Isaiah, who hosts the purple pants podcast and does an incredible tour, uh, almost every single week with Wendell Holland. And he's here to talk about what he can take away from the survivor to 51 cast by looking at their pictures.
[00:07:43] And frankly, this is basically all we have because there's nothing else about these people. And this is why it's a look is so important. It is now more than ever. Okay. Y'all thought it was all fun and games. And now y'all are looking to me to give you what you need. And I'm here for it. It used to be like, well, there's interviews and Bryce didn't listen to the interviews. He didn't listen to anything. He's just looking at the pictures.
[00:08:12] Now there's no interviews. Welcome to the open era. I think I like you here. Permanent uncertainty. Okay. So Bryce is going to look at the pictures and he takes, uh, it, it, it shouldn't work, but it does. And Bryce, uh, knows so much about these people just by looking at their pictures. Yeah. I say this every year, every season when you are out there on the island, and I'm sure this new, uh, group of contestants can speak for it.
[00:08:42] The game starts the second you get on that airplane. Mm-hmm . And so what you project is what other people are going to pick up on. And people are either going to gravitate to it or they're not, or your body language is going to signal to us a lot about how you're going to play. And you know, I have a background in social work. I have a PhD in people and I, I can read, I pick up on energies. And so I love it. And I'm always excited to do it. Okay. All right.
[00:09:10] 21 people to get to let's meet our first person here today. And this is going to be a Leah. Okay. Come on, Leah, baby girl. Rest in peace. Uh, rock the boat, Leah. Leah Puglia. Oh. Puglia? Probably Puglia. But you know what? We don't, we don't even know anything about these people. So I'm not sure how to pronounce the last names yet. Okay. I, I like the yellow.
[00:09:36] I like what looks to be these pattern patchwork pants, very bright colors. The crop top. Okay. I love, I love a good old crop top. And Leah is standing with her hands on her hips and one hand down, which welcome to Issa Look. That hand on the hip means, Leah, she's coming to play. She's going to be strong. She's a chef, I believe. I know this is Issa Look and we're not supposed to give you anything else, but I believe that's what her background is. Okay. She could cook.
[00:10:05] So that, that's, that lends to her hands on her thigh, which means she is ready to work with us. Her energy is very, to me, it's very positive. It's very friendly. You feel like she's like people oriented. And I like this combination of patterns. And so I feel like Leah is going to be a bright light. Now, I don't know you yet, Leah, but I love you, but I see a thumb. And that is very concerning to me. Look at this. Look at this. Look at this zoom in work here. Yes.
[00:10:35] Jess Sterling behind the scenes today. Come on, Jess, with the slow, uh, roll up on end. Yes. We, we love the nails, but that thumb. Yeah. It's confusing to me, Robert. I mean, you did tell me she's a chef, so she does work with her hands. Yes. But that's concerning. What do you think of the, the, these pants? Is that a pine, a pineapple I see? Well, what direction is that facing? It's upside down. Okay. Welcome to the open era, Leah. Yeah. I get what you put down. She could be open.
[00:11:05] She could be, she could swing from one alliance to the next. And her pants are filled with, it looks like fruit. That could be like a tomato. And so again, I feel like, you think that's a strawberry? Yeah. Then I see some cherries. And so I feel like what a Leah is communicating to us through this beautiful patchwork is like she picks up the fruit of the land. Yes. And she makes the best of it. And so I feel like a Leah is going to be somebody that's like a nurturer.
[00:11:35] She's going to be somebody that is going to cook. She's going to utilize the resources out there and make it work best for her. Uh, I'm concerned about the thumb, but overall I like what a Leah is giving. What about hair? Uh, hair pulled back. What does that tell you anything? She ready to work. She's ready to go. It's not going to be no hair in my chicken. Okay. So she's prepared. Right.
[00:12:01] And again, that leads Rob, she takes it serious. She's out here. It is. So I feel like a Leah is going to be someone that she's here to play survivor. And so just sometimes you don't need all the gimmicks. It's just boom. And so I like it. But that thumb, a Leah girl, I got my eye on you. Does she have a bracelet? Is that an accessory on the, on the hip hand? Oh, Robert. Does that tell you anything? That tells me that it is. Ready to make a fake idol?
[00:12:32] She could make a fake idol, but that tells me again, she's with coordination. We see the patchwork, these patterns. I see the little blue and the yellow in the bracelet. So again, she has a keen eye to detail. So she's going to pick up on stuff. She's going to see people. She's going to see what's going on. Now, how it's going to work out for her? We'll have to see. Only time will tell. Okay. But we're here for a week. Overall, is this in the maybe pile? Thumbs up? Thumbs down? Overall, this gives a solid thumbs up. Okay.
[00:13:02] But again, this is the first one. So it's like my barometer is hard for me to tell whether or not this is the bottom of the crop, the middle of the crop. It's only number one. Okay. All right. Let's meet Alexis next. Oh, okay. Okay. She's ready to play. She is a lawyer, I believe. But I see some thumbs. I'd love to know what you're thinking here. So I like Alexis energy. First of all, she's giving.
[00:13:31] She just, she just left the courtroom. Yeah. She's on her way to a happy hour to meet some of her other lawyer friends, very business casual or very business attire. And so that is letting me know Alexis is kind of like, I feel like she's a straight shooter, right? I don't think it's going to be, Hey, how are you? I feel like Alexis is going to get right down to business. Those two thumbs scared me very much. Yeah.
[00:14:01] And they are like, they're different levels to one level down horizontal thumbs, which we kind of never see. Yeah. And so we're in the open era. And so maybe those are good in the open era. We're going to have to see, but I don't know. I'm concerned because Alexis gives me like friend, like she, she gives me, she's like the friend you will want in school, right? Where it's just like, no BS. Hey, how you doing?
[00:14:30] What's going on? But let there be an issue arise. Let something happen. She's going to be the first to stand up. She's going to be the first to say something and she won't be on the right side of it. But I worry how forward she's going to be and what predicament that could put her in. And especially with these thumbs, I'm just, it makes me nervous. I don't know if she will not be able to be trusted or the people that she trust should
[00:15:01] not be trusted. Yeah. What do you think about the color palette here? Sort of like a gray on gray, black pants. Is that give you, is that monochromatic? Is it, uh, it's, it's, it's, you say, you see a gray on gray. I see light blue. It could be, it could be my, my monitor here. I guess, yeah, I guess it's a little bit, maybe a little pastel. I mean, I like the blazer. She's, you know, it's looks a little elongated.
[00:15:29] Uh, she's got it scrunched up on her arms a little bit outside of her thumbs. Her arms are kind of sort of in like a fight mode, right? Like I could tell she's ready. Your honor. Can I approach the bit? Like, you know, she's ready to go to work. And so I really feel like objection. Yes. Objection. It's not gray. Idiot. It's light blue. And so, and she's got a, a blue necklace.
[00:15:59] Uh, I'm trying to think of other court jargon, but a little hair in the front. This old courtroom's out of order. The thumbs. Objection on the thumbs, but I like it. It's a very cash look and she's friendly. But again, I see the dog get her. I see it. And so I'm very interested to see Alexis. Okay. All right. Thumbs up.
[00:16:29] Thumbs down. Maybe we got these. Alexis. I love you. I love you, boo. But two thumbs. Second person in. Yeah. Sorry. I'm not feeling it. Not going to cut it. Okay. Not in the open era. All right. Let's meet. I believe this is. Anna. Okay. I, okay. Off the top. The energy is screaming at me. I. What is it screaming? What's it saying? It is just screaming like. Objection.
[00:17:00] No. It's not screaming objection. This is screaming like. I'm excited to be here. Like, let's go. I'm happy. Let's work. Like. Yeah. Like. I get a lot of energy from Anna. Hands on the hips. So that means like she's ready to go. If we say Anna. We trying to blind somebody tonight. She's saying let's go. I like this. Like very free. Yeah. Dress. Yeah. Denim dress. Leggings. Socks. Sneakers.
[00:17:30] I love a prepared queen. She's on the island with some sneakers. The. And again, if we could zoom in on the sneakers. A little bit. Yeah. Okay. We see. She's not breaking in new shoes. I don't think. I don't think. But she's sending us the heart to let us know that at the end of the day, she has a heart and her shoes are tied very eloquently. I'm not sure if these are one of the shoes that have like. Interesting laces. Looks like almost like ribbons. Like the ribbon and the shoelace. And they're both tied and they're neatly presented.
[00:18:00] That's important. And so that tells me. Anna. She might be. Oh, full of energy. But she know her business. And she has a heart. And so I feel like. She. I like her energy and I like everything that is given. And she's a prepared queen. Flowey dress. Leggings. Socks. Sneakers tied up. Okay. Not Crocs in sports mode. Okay.
[00:18:27] She said, I'm put my sneakers tied up and no thumbs. Yeah. Hands on the hip. Hair out. Yeah. I like this. This is a very interesting pose. She's smiling. But that smile could easily be a wish. What you looking at? Mm hmm. This ain't what you want. Yeah. That. I like this. This. I. Okay. And no thumbs on hand on the hands on the hip, which is important. Very strong pose. Feet.
[00:18:57] One foot is face forward. The other foot is face out. So somebody was trying to push her. Good luck. Be able to. Stop herself. And if she needed to protect herself, she could. It's a very strong pose. Very interesting. Eclectic look. And I love it. Okay. So. And this is Anna, right? Anna. Anna. So good grades for Anna. Okay. Let's go to Brady next. All right. Here we go. Here is Brady. He's a wrestler.
[00:19:29] Okay, Brady. All right. Now, let me just get into all of this Brady because it's a lot. Yeah. He's got a lot going on here. I don't know if you. It's given. Is he young? Gurr. I think he's younger. I'd say in his twenties. I don't think he's okay. I don't think he's like 21. It's definitely give me like just got out of college. This is something he will wear to college class. He guys cookie monster pajama pants on a C button up shirt, a bandana. Yeah.
[00:19:59] Very strong pose. I mean, this is a quintessential Tony Velacos, Wendell Holland, Jeremy Collins. Yeah. This is a very strong winter, winter pose. Yeah. Could we zoom in on the face a little bit? Yeah. And like, I want to get into the pattern of this shirt. Yes. This is like a army fatigue or it's like a flower. Wow. I think it's like, I'm seeing like leaves more than. Okay. So I like the shirt.
[00:20:29] 27. Very serious. Very strong. Got the blonde hair. We have not. I cannot tell you the last time. I don't think in the new era, we saw any man with a bandana. Okay. No, I don't think so. Macho Randy Savage. Mm hmm. Okay. Oh yeah. Yeah. The baby boy.
[00:20:59] Rob, it's too early. Yeah. Very strong. I like this. He gives me very strong. Now, can we just scroll down and get into these pants a little bit? Okay. Now what? What? The pattern. So mind you, these remind me of pants that when I was on my survivor trip in Thailand, there were like these like jogger-esque pants that were like so comfortable. I still have like three pair. So I really like those pants. Mm hmm.
[00:21:28] Again, it's a very like an interesting style. So this tells me he's not what he appears to be, right? We see this big old macho macho Randy Savage. But these pants tell me a little different. These pants tell me, welcome to the open era. And so I like this. Now, the one thing that I will, that gives me a bit of concern if we get into his footwork. Yeah. This is like one foot is planted. Right.
[00:21:58] And it almost looks like the other foot is almost in motion. Yeah. Like he's about to like step forward. And you don't like that. So it concerns me, right? And so he gives very strong. I feel like he'll be great in the physical challenges and I think people will flock to him. But I am worried with this, the way this foot looks like. Like, say we need to pull a blind side, Rob. Say we need to actually make a move.
[00:22:24] I'm worried either he's going to be too forward and want to cross somebody too soon. Or he's going to be nervous and not pull the trigger and people are going to turn on him. He almost reminds me of Sammy a little bit. I get a little Sammy energy from him from like season 43. But overall, very strong pose. I can see Sammy wearing these pants. You said you can't or you can't? I can. I can. Yes.
[00:22:54] It's very like, you know, gym savage, like just real chill. So I like it very, very strong. Like the pattern mixes. Clearly he's on that like, you know, blue gray tribe. So we like it very strong. Just worried about that foot. But overall, I mean, listen. I just see an inconsistency though with the upper half, the classic, strong, solid, unmovable,
[00:23:23] but lower half seems like a little bit like ready to, ready to dart, ready to run. Right. But again, that could be his gift in disguise, right? I think what he appears and what most people are going to see when we learn more about him or we see who he actually gets close with, I think will be starkly different. And I think that that could work in his favor. He just needs to pick his foot up when it's time to pick it up or he needs to keep it down.
[00:23:53] Sometimes these big guys could be too dug in. So maybe it works for him. Maybe, right. Maybe. I'm just saying, it's just an interesting pose. And so that gives me pause. If you wear glasses, you know the drill. You don't replace them until you absolutely have to. A scratch, that's livable. Loose screw, fine. Just try to tighten it with your fingernail and move on. Cause new glasses cost a few hundred dollars.
[00:24:22] It doesn't feel worth the hassle. So you just keep going with the same pair. Then Zenni changed everything. It's an online eyewear shop.

[00:24:50] You stop asking, do I really need new glasses? And you start asking, why don't I just get a few? A work pair, a fun pair. The ones that only go with one outfit. You don't have to justify it anymore. I ordered from Zenni and honestly, the frames look exactly like something I would have spent way more on somewhere else.

And if you've never bought glasses online before, they have a virtual try-on so you know exactly how a frame looks on your face before you commit. That scratched up pair has done its job.

You're like a farmer now.
[00:28:14] I mean, I really am. Me and Carter, we're getting along. Carter seems like... He's a livestock farmer. He's not... You're more of a plant farmer. I'm a plant, but I love a lot. Good livestock. Some cattle. Uh... You know... What do you love about cattle? I mean, I... You know, I just... I love to watch them graze. Uh... Yeah? I like my beef beef. I don't like my beef horse.
[00:28:54] Uh... I wouldn't mind having chickens. Yeah. It's a lot of work though. And then you gotta protect them from the predators. Uh... You know, North Carolina, y'all got foxes, coyotes, raccoons. Yeah. Yeah. Maybe one day. Uh... That would be fun, Robert. Mm-hmm. But, like, Carter gives me very good energy. Hard worker. Uh... This is an interesting hand pose. He... Like, very... Very simple. Very, like, you know, plain buttoned up shirt. Uh... Collars are folded.
[00:29:23] Uh... But I see two thumbs. I don't know if Carter is praying. If he's clapping. If he's... Hey! Hey! Hey! Get over here! Like, I don't know. I wonder if he's sort of like... I feel like he's, like, rubbing his hands together of like, ah... I'm gonna, like, wait till... I'm about to do something evil. I... But... I don't get that from... Carter's aura gives me, like, hard-working family... Family Man.
[00:29:52] Like, I almost feel like he's somebody to watch, right? Mm-hmm. Like, I feel like people are going to gravitate towards him. He knows how to wrangle cattle, so he'll know how to wrangle people. Um... Again, just these thumbs. I don't know if it's like... With Carter, it's like, what you see is what you get. Yeah. Is this AI? How many fingers are there? Oh my God. Is this like... Is this like 13 fingers? 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. No, I see 10. But they are, again, in a very weird position. Cause...
[00:30:21] If you go... Carter! This might be an AI picture. If you go and grab your hand, grab your hand. Check the teeth. How many... Does he have normal teeth? No, the teeth look okay. Yeah. But, in this type of pose, you're supposed to be clasping your hands. Mm-hmm. He has them open. I mean, it is the open era, so maybe... And it's almost like he giving us a little... Hang loose? One of those hang loops. Yeah. Yeah. So, Carter, very simple, very...
[00:30:52] Not much to get into, but can tell he's a hard-working man. Yeah. How do you feel about... A couple things here. Um, the cuffs on the shirt. Um, yeah. What are you thinking here? So, I don't love it, right? But they are neatly folded, right? I would actually love it if he maybe, you know, would have folded them up four more times and pushed it up above his elbow. Yeah. But he just said a little... And that works for me. Because it's not like sloppy...
[00:31:19] We've seen it sloppily done before. Uh, and so again, that tells me he's neat. He's orderly. Like, I feel like he'll gravitate to people easy. It's just this hand. I don't know if it's like, are you not willing to... Like, is this giving me honor and integrity? Like, I don't know. Yeah. And then also, we really can't see his feet. It's not his fault here. Right. But they're kind of hidden feet.
[00:31:48] We can't even tell you what his shoes are. He could be barefoot. He really could. Or it's like, how big are his feet? Because like... Not that big. You can't see them. I would imagine their boobs. If they were really big, you'd see them. Right. So I don't know. So again... He could be standing in a hole. A little mysterious. He could be standing in some cow manure. We don't know. Yeah.
[00:32:12] Also, uh, from Jess backstage, she says that chickens smell. So they did not take that into account. Damn. Well, I mean, they're gonna be outside. Yeah. First lady podcasting, very sensitive nose. So I don't think she's gonna go for that. She doesn't even like eggs that much. Really? I've been on an omelet kick. Omelet kick. What do you put in the omelet? Ooh, Robert. Depends on the day. But a little cheese.
[00:32:42] Ask Leah. Oh, you said... That's right, because she's the chef. A little cheese, a little spinach, and then some... The little baby tomatoes and let them like stew a little bit. Ooh. Okay. But we like Carter. I'm just regular, like nothing too fantastic. Uh, but I do feel like he is going to be able to, to mix well with everyone. Okay. All right. Next up is Christian. Not that Christian. New Christian.
[00:33:12] Oh, come on. New Christian. I'm just confused by like some of the outfits that we have seen. We're in Fiji, right? Like it's giving fall. Oh, okay. Christian, this is not where to Thanksgiving. Hey, it's PSL season. They know when the show is on. Very true. Okay. I like Christian's vibe. Christian is giving us... You're wearing a jacket. They're matching.
[00:33:41] I mean, he's got the brown, oversized jacket. He's giving us the winter pose of his hands, his hands crossed. Yeah. But I don't, that's not the same as the, you know, the, the iconic Jeremy, Wendell, Tony, uh, that Brady was doing. It's not, it is, it is a bit subtler. Not all arms folded are the same. Very true. But a folded arm with no thumbs is still... But wait a minute.
[00:34:11] Hold up. Just scroll in. Enhance. Enhance. Enhance. That better not be a thumb. Cause I... It could be. I don't think that's the... I think that that's like maybe... No, that looks like a middle finger. A middle finger. That's like middle, middle three. That's a summit, a hand summit. Is he giving us, he giving us a, a, a quiet FU. I like it, but listen. Yeah. The pose, the hands crossed may not be the strongest, but it is still there.
[00:34:40] But the cherry on top is the Bob Crowley bow tie that is indicative of a winner. And that pattern on that bow tie, I don't know if that's musical notes. Hmm. I don't know if that's a cursive writing cause they don't teach the kids cursive anymore. Something, but that's a very interesting bow tie.
[00:35:04] So with the Bob Crowley winner bow tie and his arms folded, he's coming to play and he's coming to win. And he seems very nice, very gentle, I might say, but don't let that fool you. I can see and read between the lines, uh, his stance, not that strong.
[00:35:27] I feel like if somebody were to come at him from the side, he would maybe lose his balance. But I feel like he's prepared. I feel like the glasses, the oversized holiday sweater for me is something to it. Um, and so I like this and I like the energy that he gives. Hmm. Okay. All right. So you're, you're more bullish on this than I would have thought. Yeah.
[00:35:54] I, I, sometimes you have to see the smaller details and he's showing up and I feel like, you know, he doesn't need to give you a, huh. Huh. So, huh. Right. Sometimes you don't need to, you don't need a big, huh. And so I feel like he is, he's somebody to watch. Okay. All right. Let's talk about, we have the new Christian. We have new Devin. Oh, singular. Well, hello.
[00:36:25] Here he is. Hello, Devin. Nice to meet you. Um, we like it. I mean, I like what I see. Denim in these pictures. I feel like an unusual amount of denim from the, it's open era. This Devin, Devin, Devin, Devin, Devin. Okay. I like this Robert. Let me just, I don't, I don't even know where to start.
[00:36:53] Let's start at the orange jacket. Let's start at that. It's cropped. Okay. Cause cropped is in. Cropped is in. I didn't know that. Yes. Robert. This is Devin way. Come on. And you can have your way, Devin. Um, have it your way. Listen, hands folded. Now I do see a thumb, but what I will give a little credit. The way the thumb is laying.
[00:37:22] When we were to look at the hands, it would look like the rest of the hands. You wouldn't necessarily see a thumb. Yeah. And so I'm gonna give, I'm gonna give. It looks more like a fifth finger than a thumb. Correct. You know what I'm saying? So I'm gonna let Devin have his way. Uh, but I also love his pants. I love the pleats on his pants. Pleated denim. Uh, it, it just is very, I, I sense Devin's air already. Right. Very chill stance.
[00:37:52] It's not even like he's signaling to us. Like here, I'm, I'm here to play a strong game. It's not even like, he's like, I'm scared to be out here. I get very much. Devin is Devin. He is smiling at us. And so I almost get a Caleb from Devin and Caleb possibly could have won his season. Like, you know, Caleb had the, the first shot in the dark.
[00:38:17] So Jacob, I mean, yeah, Caleb Jacob, but this Jacob, like very fun, very light, very people pleasing, very easy on the eyes. And so I think that this is a strong pose. I mean, I have to deduct some points for the thumb, but again, overall style, the fit, like very chill. I like this energy. Is he in the hole that Carter was in? Can we, can we see what's, what's going on?
[00:38:47] And it looks like he did. I see some, I do see the top of a shoe. I do. I don't know if it's a clog or something, but again, the difference is he's seemingly being in some weeds, but we could still see his shoes. And so I feel like this tells me he might be backed up against a wall, but he's still going to pull something out. He's still going to make his stance known. He's going to try to pull a Hail Mary.
[00:39:16] He's going to, we're going to see his feet. Mm-hmm. Okay. All right. So we're high on Devin. We are very high on Devin. You know, he said that he is the baby of Rick Devins and Joe. Oh, oh, that's an interesting combination. That'd be one hell of a custody fight. I mean, okay. And listen, they, they would be in court going back. We're going to need the lawyer. Who's the lawyer? Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
[00:39:46] But again, I get that from him, right? Where I get the Joe loyal stick together, hard working. I get the Rick Devins, the sneaky deaky, look for an idol, make big moves. And if you do me wrong, don't let this face fool you. I'm going to give it to you. So I absolutely could see that. Okay. All right. Let's talk about Eric. Here's Eric here.
[00:40:12] And with Eric, he is posing. I don't know. Is it prayer hands or is he sort of like, let me see what I'm going to, like, as ASMR for the people listening. Now. People are like, Rob, you need to moisturize your hands. They sound very dry. That was dry. That was dry. Yeah. Very soft and smooth. I, at first look, I want to say they were praying. Mm-hmm.
[00:40:42] But the more and more we get into Eric, it's giving me the Freddy Krueger. Freddy Krueger. Yes. You ever watch those movies? You know, I don't do the scary movies like that, Rob. Yeah. But I mean, of course I've seen it. So it's like, I feel like Eric is signaling to us that he wants to be the villain. He's giving villain vibes. Yeah. He's got like the skater boy pants on. Mm-hmm. He's giving us a very serious face pose.
[00:41:10] I don't love the stance because again, it feels like he's not well balanced. Yeah. I feel like his knees look like a little closed in. Is that right? You, you try to think of buckled knees? Like, yeah, just, it looks a little. Yeah. Like, like he's doing the Thymaster. Yeah. Remember that? Yeah. Yes. My mom used to have them at her desk at work. She used to do it like while she was at work.
[00:41:41] Mm-hmm. So I like, I like someone that embraces, you know, their evilness. Cause we haven't seen a lot of evil or, you know, villainous players. Yeah. And sometimes we don't like them. Sometimes we love them. Sometimes they end up to go on and win. And so I can see a thumb, but there is a lot of this hand, different hand gestures
[00:42:10] that we are not used to seeing. And so like with the previous, was it Jacob? No, Devin. Devin. Um, the thumb, we can't really kind of hitting, but I'm, I'm more concerned about that pinky. Okay. That pinky looks very extended. Put that pinky away, sir. Yes. And that lets me know that like, you are, you're trying, you're like, you're, you're trying
[00:42:40] to give us this evilness. And I, I'm worried that it might not work. Mm-hmm. I don't know. Um, but I am excited. This is a new look, a new pose. Uh, Eric is the only one of 51 that I know. And so I'm excited to see my baby boy. Do you have a scouting report from your knowledge of Eric? Eric. So my knowledge of Eric, uh, I've maybe known him for about four to five years.
[00:43:06] Uh, Wendell and I will call him our therapist because he'd be at our Boston stops and he would listen to our podcast and he'd be like, the way you guys argue are like brothers. And one time we was in Boston in the middle of argument and Eric stepped in and he, you know, he mediated and he helped us through. And so I feel like, yes. I mean, obviously we were just joking. That's bold. But I feel like he could bring that to the island.
[00:43:35] But I think he is a therapist, right? Yeah. Yeah. He has some behavioral health background. Um, and I feel like the way that his hands are, he is going to do that on the island. Yeah. But I'm, I'm nervous. He's going to use it in a nefarious way and he's going to use it to backstab people. So I don't know, but I'm excited to see what Eric Freddie Cougar. Yeah. Do you know what?
[00:44:02] He wants to play like Dama Bate. He said, Oh, I mean, is he looking for his Wendy easy on the island? Maybe. And if he does find it, make sure you get the Wendy easy before the Wendy easy gets you. Yeah. All right. Uh, all right. Let's go to jelly. Oh, are you ready for this jelly? I don't think ready for this jelly. I don't think ready for this jelly.
[00:44:32] My body too delicious for you. Jelly. Can you handle this? Okay. Miss jelly. Mm hmm. I mean, Robert, this might be one of my favorite is. And I said favorite is jelly. Yeah. Yeah. This now, now this is a look. Yeah. Okay. I love the, the wide laying baggy pants.
[00:44:59] I love the, the camisole that matches the shirt. She's giving us winter pose. Boom. Hands crossed. We see no hands. She's got the quintessential braids in. I don't think they boho. I don't see no boho, but she got the low boho. Maybe not list. I think they might be not listen giving us a straight face. She's giving us. Mm hmm. Mm hmm. Eyebrows threaded. Okay. Mm hmm.
[00:45:29] Necklace, the top, very strong pose. But for me, it is that leg. My, my, my, that leg, that leg, that leg. Yeah. So the one leg that is not, I don't know, bent. That's just straight. That's a straight leg. Okay. That's a straight leg. That other leg to the side.
[00:45:55] That is when you're in fourth grade and you've been cutting up in class and they call your mom and you get off the school bus and your mom is at the corner. Mm hmm. This is what she looked like. That's what she looked like. I remember. Jelly ain't here to play no games. Mm hmm. Now, Jelly, I get fun, beautiful, but for me, put this in, this is my first winner potential. This is a very strong pose.
[00:46:25] Come on, Jelly. Yeah. Um, the arms are, can we get a zoom in on? Yeah, that's, uh, that's right. That is the, the cross armed with all due respect to Christian. Like, uh, that's how you do it. And the knots on her pants is tight, tight and proportionately. Mm hmm. Her arms are parallel. There's a little space in between. Showing the tattoos and just like, I guess the right way.
[00:46:55] This. What's that tattoo say? Can you read that? Do you remember? Oh, you can see that. That would be good. Jess must have better vision. Oh my God. I thought, I, I see a D. I was gonna say drive them. Do you remember? Do you remember? The 21st night of September. Fuck ah ah. Okay, listen. She, she, she, the Michael Jackson and the Destiny's Child references. Jelly!
[00:47:24] Jelly! I'm a survivor. Mm hmm. I like this. I like this a lot. Jelly! Okay. Very good. Call me butter. Okay. Jelly and butter. I, I like it jelly. Well done. All right. Next up is Jenna. Jenna. Okay. Ooh. Here's Jenna and uh, let me, let me see. Remind me what is Jenna's background?
[00:47:54] Is she the photographer? Oh. Okay. Uh, yes. Wedding photographer. Mm. And that is a profession that I don't think enough respect is put on. Tell me about it. A wedding photographer has to deal with so much.
[00:48:19] They have to get, capture the essence of their clients, but they then also have to navigate the family. They have to maneuver around. Yep. The wedding venue. They gotta lay down on the floor. They gotta climb to the top of the church. They gotta swing on a pole to capture an image. Like, no, for real. I love it when they climb to the top of the church. Yes. It's so good.
[00:48:45] I love it when they have like the three cameras on both sides and walking around. Mm-hmm. Or I love it the patience that they have when the, like, the bride and groom. They don't have time to eat. They don't, yeah. Or, the real kick of Robert is after they say I do and they're getting ready to walk down the aisle, and here come Aunt Cheryl and Uncle Bob want to stand in the middle and get the photo, and she gotta stand there and wait for them. Oh, she doesn't check them? I mean, depending, but it's like, okay, get your photo.
[00:49:15] Mm-hmm. And click, click, move in and out. So, that, knowing that says a lot about a person. And this is a very strong pose, hands on her hips. We don't see a thumb. But she knows how to pose. I mean, clearly. Mm-hmm. But again, very, I love the striped pants. I love this denim vest jacket. I love the scarf. Yeah. That kind of, like, I'm a little formal, or maybe not. She's got her hair up like she's working a wedding. She's smiling.
[00:49:45] She's ready to go. I love that her foot is, like, kind of slightly in front of the other one in an interesting position. But to me, this is an action. I'm always saying the way that they're standing, it's like, you have to be ready for something to come. This is telling me she's not waiting for you to come to her. She's coming to you. She's going to be about action. I like Jenna a lot.
[00:50:10] My only concern, just because I'm very high on her, is that I feel like I'm worried how forward she might be. Because as a wedding photographer, you've got to move people out the way. You've got to get here, you've got to get there. And so I don't know how that will gel. But she's a very strong contestant. This is a very, very strong pose. Strong pose. Hair up. Up in a bus. You ready to go to business? Yeah.
[00:50:41] Trying to look at what that tie is. If it tells us anything. I mean, it gives us the homey vibes, right? Like it lets us know. She understands. Sometimes on the couch, you've got to put a pop of a blue pillow on a yellow couch. She understands it. She sees the vision. Yeah. All right. There's Jenna. Let's talk about, here's Kilby. All right. Are you ready for Kilby? Kilby.
[00:51:12] Mm-hmm. Okay. Listen, he, very interesting pose, right? But it's the shirt for me. Are these, am I seeing penguins? Is this? Um, let's see. It looks like some kind of other waterfowl. What? What's the? Pelican. A pelican. Mm-hmm. Pelican Pete. Pelican Pete. Mm-hmm. Now, what's interesting about a pelican is they like, look very dainty.
[00:51:42] Uh, but they're strong and they can be vicious. And they'll swoop down. Yeah. Grab that fish. And grab that fish. Uh, and so Pete is giving us very friendly, fun, but I can just tell his, I don't want to say eccentric, but like I get his vibe. Yeah. Right. Um, where it's like, he goes with the flows, but he definitely beats to, he's got whatever
[00:52:11] beat is in his head is the beat that he listened to and he liked, and we fine with that. Uh, strong pose, hands in, hands in the pockets. I don't think that we see a thumb. Oh, we did. Well, two. Pete. Pfft. Pelican Pete. Pete. Pete. What's the pattern on the shorts? Is that an animal also? That looks like, I think they might be ships. Ships or turtles? Did you see a turtle? I don't know.
[00:52:40] I'll wait for Jess. She seems like she is. She's like locked in on this stuff. Sometimes they'd be like little boats or ships. Is it a boat or a shit? It's a schooner. A schooner? What? A schooner. She can't tell. Okay. Well, he definitely is giving on theme like boat island. Mm-hmm. It looks like he is dressed for the appropriate weather. Uh, can we zoom in on his sneakers? I'm curious to just see what we could see.
[00:53:10] Somebody has hidden feet. I know. Can we see the other foot? I'm, cause I think we could see a sock on that other foot. Mm-hmm. Okay. So, he's got his sock just scrunched down. Hmm. And so listen, he's about a man of action. He doesn't have time for the little nitty thing. Put the sock on and just scrunch it down. Yeah. And so, that sometimes tells me he might be a little sloppy with plans if we are trying to- Maybe a little chaotic.
[00:53:40] Yeah. Like, of that nature, yes. Mm-hmm. But, sometimes we love a chaotic king. Sometimes it works out. And so, be very interesting to see, but he seems to understand who he is. And sometimes people, I feel like, will get into situations and they'll adjust to the situations. I feel like Pelican Pete is like, y'all gonna adjust to me. And I like it.
[00:54:10] Because it then changes the dichotomy of the tribe. And so, I'm excited. But I like Pelican Pete. I mean, I don't know about a winner pose, but it's a look. Yeah. All right. Let's go to Kristen. Okay. Yeah. All right. Bryce, what are you seeing here from Kristen? This is the vet line. Hands on the hips. No thumbs. Hands on the hips. No thumbs.
[00:54:40] Strong pose. Blazer. Denim. They told the Survivor 51 cast, bring your denim. Yeah. He's got a bike buckle. Levi's. What was it? Levi 501, drop the zero, keep the five and one. You like that? The jeans is fitted. The jeans is fitted. Okay. Levi. Wait, is his name Levi?
[00:55:10] This, that's who? The person that makes the jeans? No, wait. I'm sorry. Kristen. Kristen. The jeans are jeans. I, this, this is a strong pose. Yeah. Hands on the hips. Vest on. The shirt, a pop of color.
[00:55:38] If I were to say, this is really how you should stand, right? Like if there is something coming towards them, they got it. If they need to take off, they got it. Smiling. Feel like, I mean, this is a strong, hands on both of the hips. So that means they're not playing around. Like they, they, they came to get the most out of this experience, but they came to play survivor. I like it.
[00:56:07] Well, pop of color. Mm hmm. How about footwork? Footwork is solid. Yeah. Little Adidas. Mm hmm. Classic. I feel like two feet off to one side. Do you want to see one foot more pointed straight at you? So, I mean, ideally I like a one foot, one foot straight, one foot out. Yeah.
[00:56:35] But this, they look like this and this particular pose with the way that the knees are bent, right? They can be straight on straight because you ready to, or somebody coming at you or you could take off. So I feel like it's a very good pose. Very strong. Okay. Anything on the pattern of the shirt? Is it like a sun? It could be the Iron Throne. It could be the Iron Throne. It could be, uh, not a peli.
[00:57:05] I'm thinking of Pelican Pete. Uh, what's the, a peacock? Peacock. Sure. We're on Paramount though. And they are signaling to us that under this, you know, blazer and jeans that there's a, there's an energy. Yeah. The, uh, bicycle belt buckle. I know that Kristen did like a very long, uh, bike tour for the charity at one point.
[00:57:35] Could be a big biker. And that take that and that is a lot. And so they're going to be good on these, the physical aspect. Uh, so very strong pose. I, I like it. Okay. All right. Next up. Let's look at Lewis. All right. What do you know about Lewis?
[00:57:58] I mean, I, I love the look. Yes. I don't know if it's the hair. I mean, first of all, Lewis, is you play a survivor? Are you shooting a model campaign? Yeah. Well, Lewis is the influencer. I can tell. Okay. Cause I, I swear for Jesus, Lewis set his tripod up and took this photo. Okay. Lewis said, I'm not even looking at you hoes.
[00:58:29] Lewis said, I'm not even looking at y'all. It's rude. I see a thumb and I don't even care because the way the vibe goes, the oversized baggy jeans. Very baggy jeans. The way he cropped the shirt in to make an oval. Yeah. The way he rolled up his sleeves, the way he put that little powder in his hair and scrunched
[00:58:55] it up to give it that texture and that Fiji humidity heat, the way he is standing perpendicular and not even looking the way he brought his own goddamn tripod. Levi Lewis Lewis.
[00:59:20] I, I, I, he might also have the hidden immunity idol, uh, also on his neck. Look rip. Yeah. Oh my Jesus. And with the little blue, can let me get into Lewis's mug a little bit. Mm-hmm. Ooh. Ooh. And he got the nerve to be looking at us and we don't even know it. Mm-hmm. Oh! The corner of his eye.
[00:59:48] That's a, that's a nasty stare Rob. Yeah. Oh, Lucas. Lucas. Have you heard him talk also? No. Oh, he has a Irish accent. Mm-hmm. I've rarely seen you so blown away. Because, Robert, when have we ever seen someone bring a tripod, set it up so it doesn't look
[01:00:18] like they, and how you know if we could zoom back in on the eyes, how we know this is from Lewis's tripod is look at them eyes. He looking at the damn tripod, but his face isn't looking. He knew where it was. He probably got the little clicker in his pocket. Probably. This is a, I mean. Maybe it's on a timer. My. Yeah. Now, now this is a look.
[01:00:45] My only, only concern is that. I'm gonna do the podcast like that now. This is such a look. I'm just gonna, I think I'm just gonna be like looking that way, but I was like, I'll be like looking, I'll be looking at you like from, I'm not gonna move my head. Did I. Maybe it's better than this one. This is a. Right.
[01:01:18] Is it really. What do you think? People are confused and listening to the podcast. When you go back. When you go back to do the traders, Rob, that's the pose you need to give. I gotta remember that. I, you, you have no idea how much I, you're in my head when, when, whenever I'm going.
[01:01:45] But because the person, the person that is there, there's always, there's like a guy there and, and, and the guy is like, do this, do this, do this, do this. Do this. And I'm like, oh, but like my friend is like not, it's gonna say that I don't do that. Do you not understand, Robert? That's also a part of it's a look. Photographers, the photographer is a part of the game. They won't tell you to do something. You don't have to do what they, you don't have to do what they. I guess so. Yeah. Now I know.
[01:02:15] Now I know. I'm not, I'm going to be like, you know what? Uh, stop it. Get bent. You need, you need to channel Lewis, but you know what? Make the Lewis face. Oh, he brought his own tripod. Yeah. Make the Lewis face again, Rob. Let me see it. You know how that the other person said he's the child of Rick Devins and Joe.
[01:02:39] So Lewis, when you make that face look like he is the child of you and Taryn Armstrong. Look. I see Taryn for sure. Now, Lewis. Okay. Your fathers are Taryn and Robert. Now this is a look.
[01:03:06] I mean, my only, only, only, only concern is that it is so much of a look. Mm hmm. That I am concerned of what you, what's it going to give? Right?
[01:03:30] Like, like, are you, how is this going to translate in Survivor? I don't know. Yeah. It, it just concerned me. But dish. This has stepped the male. It's a look up a notch. Okay. It's going to be tough to beat. Okay. All right. Let's talk about Linnae. Oh.
[01:04:01] All right. Here's Linnae. What do you know about Linnae? Linnae. I don't know about Linnae, but I like to stay. Okay. Because Linnae is giving me energy. Yeah. She's giving me sass. She's giving me vibes. Yes. Vibes. Yes. She's giving me sneaker socks. She's giving me hair. She's giving me hands on my hips, but it's not even on my hips. Okay.
[01:04:30] She's giving me hands on my, the top of my ridge cage to accentuate my waist. Mm-hmm. She's looking directly at us. No tripod. She has on, I don't know if this is a sweater, but it also could be like one of those 90s windbreaker. Oh no. What's the shirt? Mm-hmm. Jeans. Yeah. Cropped denim. Cropped. I would even say high waisted denim. Mm-hmm. Sock.
[01:05:00] No scrunched. Yeah. Adidas. A lot of Adidas out here. Now, can we zoom in on the shoe that's facing us? Mm-hmm. What's that? Oh, see? Here. What is that? Sloppy knot? It's just a sloppy knot. Mm-hmm. And so that just concerns me. Although she is giving us the full package, it's the little small details like that, that could literally trip her up in the game. Mm-hmm.
[01:05:31] Yeah. But I can't let that stop us. No. This is a look as well. It's a look. Bryce, do you know about Linnea's occupation? No. She is an entrepreneur. Okay. She owns a franchise of businesses. Of? Adult novelties.
[01:06:01] Listen! She, her and her brother own the stores. What? Do we know the name? Afterglow. I like her. Mm-hmm. I like her. Okay? Yeah. Face card is serving. Face card is serving. It's, again, like she...
[01:06:30] Not, it will not be declined. It will not be declined. She will not be chopped. Okay? It's giving afterglow. Okay? Listen. I love it. Listen. I... And so that means, again, a female entrepreneur in that type of industry lets me know that she gotta be about her business. Right? Yeah. She gotta be... She has to be able to negotiate. I'm sure she has to deal with a lot of different things, which lets me know she's strong.
[01:06:59] And I like it. And I like this look. And I like her. This is a strong pose. But, baby, tie them shoes up. Tie them up. Oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh. If you wear glasses, you know the drill.

Great, that's the shirt.
[01:08:46] But now I'm trying to be more intentional, and I ordered from Quince a mesh stitch sweater polo, Moonstone Blue. I said it out loud, who is this man?

[01:11:10] Maggie is, again, Maggie's energy. She's a farmer. Okay, we got two farmers. I think there's three farmers. Oh, three? Yeah. Come on, agriculture. I think Lewis is a farmer. Really? Yeah. But I think he's like an Instagram farmer. Wait a second. What's an Instagram farmer?
[01:11:39] He'd be traveling a lot. I don't know how much actual, like, if he's really living that farmer life. I don't know. I ain't never hear of an Instagram farmer. I'm going to have to look that up, Robert. Um, so this Maggie, first of all, it's the hair for me. Mm-hmm.
[01:12:03] I don't know if she did a deep conditioner the night before and blew it out in Fiji, but it is hairy. Mm-hmm. And off to the side. Yeah. Hands on the hip. She's very thick. Big smile. Big smile, but don't let that fool you. Mm-hmm. Okay? Don't let it fool you. I see right through it. Maggie is a strong woman. Hands on the hips. She has that pose of, I'm ready to go.
[01:12:32] And again, a very hard to tell because the overalls are so baggy if this is a... But I just want to say, with the way that her hands are, I want to say, again, this is still good position. I feel like we have a lot of people in the agriculture industry. Yeah. And so she's going to be able to pull her on weight. I feel like she may not be that... She might...
[01:12:59] To me, she looks a little, like, tiny, like, short, but I feel like she makes that up in might. Like, I feel like she's strong. I feel very... Do we know how old... How old is Maggie? Okay. So that's... 40 is the new 20. Okay. Maggie out here looking amazing. Um, so she's still very young. And so she can... I don't know who the oldest on the cast is, but she's able to get in with the young kids and if there's an older crowd.
[01:13:29] So she's like right in the middle. Uh, very strong. It's the hair for me though. Like this a lot. We like Maggie. Okay. All right. Let's then go to Mike. Okay. Here's Mike. Uh, Mike Pinsky. Come on, Mike Pinsky. Uh, very strong pose. This is another winner-esque pose. Hands on the hips. Very strong.
[01:13:59] Um, hands on the hips. So that means like, again, he is not... He is letting us know. He is here to play. He's here to win. Yeah. Um, I can't tell if Mike didn't get his coffee in the morning and he at work and he had to take his like photo ID. They was like, uh, very serious. Mm-hmm. So do we have to do this? Yeah. Did not send in my video already. Like...
[01:14:31] But again, very casual. Like again, not much. Boom, boom. But I see a lot of... We've seen a lot of that. This is the look. And so I feel like he will be able to get along with a lot of different people. Uh, just interesting to see. Can we zoom in on Mike's face? Mike's face. Yeah. Okay. So I mean, it's not a blank face.
[01:15:02] Cause I mean, if, if you look at it the Lewis way. Yeah. I can see a smile. But if you, you know, you tilt your eye, I can see it being serious. Yeah. So again, maybe this is his poker face. Uh, so he wanted to come out and give a very serious face. But again, what I love about is a look is that when you are taking these photos, uh, you're normally around the table, you get up and go. And this is what you want to project on survivor.
[01:15:31] And so like, he is telling us he is here to be a serious player. Sure. So, um, I think I see some, uh, inconsistencies between, and like with Brady, uh, upper body, lower body, upper, upper body, hands on the hip, uh, classic winter pose. Lower body is like a little uneven looking like, uh, he can't wait to get out of there. I agree.
[01:15:58] I see it, but the stance, the leg position for me is kind of more in a ready position. It's a little undercover, but I see it. Uh, but again, he's just like here. Yeah. So I'm curious to see if we'll see any of like this body language that we're getting, uh, or the island.
[01:16:24] Uh, cause he also could just be like, I just, I'm not for all of the shenanigans. Take the photo. I'm here to win survivor. I'm here to get the coconuts. So Bryce, he works in major league baseball. He works for the Yankees. And, uh, you know, I'm curious because I think of David Sampson who obviously played on your season. I feel like in all the times that we've talked about your experience in Ponderosa, I feel like I, I never remember you talking about date.
[01:16:53] Your experience with David Sampson, did he not, did he leave, uh, after he got voted out or did he stay at Ponderosa? David had a private jet and was out. Yeah. I'm like, uh, you know, I, he must've left cause I've never heard Bryce tell one story about David Sampson. I never talked to them. I had to cuss David out though. My dude loved David. Um, he's the best, like still keep in contact to him, uh, with this debt to this day. Um, but I had felt some type of way.
[01:17:23] When we got back, you know, it was like the pre merge. We went on a trip and here I find out he calling your T a job. He like got Alexis's email. He's reaching out to everybody. Ain't even called me. Yeah. And so when I finally got to see David at the reunion to let him know, I said, I'm right. And he was out. Oh, Bryce.
[01:17:48] I just, but ever since I let David know it's not a birthday, it's not a Christmas that he has not missed. Uh, and so love David and, uh, his daughter recently passed away. And so just, Oh my God. I didn't know that much love, uh, to him and his family. Um, David. Yeah. I love me some David Sampson.
[01:18:11] Um, but if he is in the baseball world, like David, and I'm reading into, uh, Mike's body language, David was definitely, uh, this is how it's done. Too hard too fast. Yes.
[01:18:36] Yes. And so like, I'm, I'm very curious to see, uh, what Mike is going to give. Okay. All right. Let's talk about Ori next. Here's Ori. Okay. Ori. Uh, I love, love, love, love. First of all, I feel like Ori must've been next in line after Lewis took his photo.
[01:19:04] Cause he saw Lewis's stance, but I like, uh, first of all, come on with the, um, the, the, the, the, what do you call it? The checkered, not the checkered, whatever that pattern of pants that Ori has. Let's see. Let's see. Enhance. You see the little checkered, what they call it? The plaid. Is it plaid? Okay. Plaid. Yeah. Yes. But it looks like corduroyed S. It looks a little. Corduroy plaid.
[01:19:28] I love that. And he has a, it looks to be a cropped shirt. Okay. He got the memo, a button up cropped shirt fits him very nicely. We could see he is very strong hands on the hips. He is smiling. He's got a fresh re twist his locks. He's looking at us. He is smiling. Yeah.
[01:19:50] Cause he's very physically fits. He's, I, this another strong pose. Can I, can we see what, can we see the feet? What the feet give it? Uh, okay. Okay. Like some, some type of Jordans or some ones, but neatly tucked in. Okay. Ori, somebody to watch. To watch.
[01:20:14] This is a very strong pose. Very winter pose. Very like Ori seems very friendly, very fit, fashion forward. I don't, I don't have nothing bad to say. No thumbs. Yeah. What's that pattern on the shirt? Looks like a, you know, floral, a floral, like the collar, a lily, the black collar. He's gotten buttoned up. Looks like he might have a little necklace on. Yeah.
[01:20:41] What do you think about it? Just, uh, I want to show the angle. I feel like that this is hands on the hip, but kind of like the 45 degree angle, uh, towards the camera, as opposed to normally. And traditionally, I think we see the hands on the hip flush flat facing the camera. And normally that is a very direct on like, I'm here to play. I'm here to win. Power.
[01:21:07] Power. Where this, Ori is like, I don't need to thrust my power in your face. Although you could, if you wouldn't be mad or he, but he's standing off to the side. Yeah. So again, it demonstrates like I'm the captain of the ship, but I can take coordinates from somebody else.
[01:21:31] I know I, I know I can't steer the boat at night. I need somebody like, you know, he understands. And so like, I'm excited to see him. This is a very strong pose. Okay. All right. Let's now get to Pat. Oh, all right. Pat, Pat is a federal prosecutor.
[01:21:56] Oh, come on. Another lawyer. Okay. I, and again, It's an interesting photo. Very. It doesn't look like a survivor photo. This is like, uh, uh, I feel like that this is like, um, uh, I don't know. This is like, uh, I feel like it's like a honeymoon photo. Oh, okay. I mean, it's, I don't, I guess this is like a skirt.
[01:22:23] I like the material in the skirt hands on the hip hands down, which means again, she's here to play survivor, but it also looks like she's wanting to make connections. She wants to, you know, build, she's a prosecutor. So we know she has the fight in her. I love the, her short haircut. She's very much a vibe, but she seems friendly. Seems like she knows her business, but she also knows how to have fun.
[01:22:52] And so I'm very interested to see how she does now. She also kind of is at like a 40 degree angle, but I see a thumb like boom, right. Other hands. And so like that makes me a little nervous, but it almost blends in with the fabric of her skirt or pants. But again, it's, it's a vibe. It goes with the got a little belly button out.
[01:23:18] So it's like, I get her vibe. I feel like she's going to be strong and a prosecutor. Like, Oh yeah, we know, we know what time it is. And so she has the potential to do very well. Is that a boot? Can we scroll down? Is that a boot? I don't think. Okay. That's the grass in the lake. I thought she might've had a little high boot on, but love the vibe. Mm hmm. Not my favorite pose, but I get her energy.
[01:23:48] And I feel like with all of the people that we have seen thus far, um, she definitely has room. Mm hmm. To move around. And so we, uh, we like Jess. Yeah, it's a good photo. I don't know if it's a survivor photo. I mean, I don't know if Levi's photo was, I mean, a Lewis photo was a survivor photo. So it goes on brand. Mm hmm. Uh, so I'm excited. Okay. Come on. All right.
[01:24:18] Let's talk about Rob. We have another Rob. How about this? Oh, Rob. Rob effing Bert. Okay. These Robs is playing with me. A thumb, a hand and a. Is this a vest? It's a vest and a shirt. Okay. And I know his wife picked that out. I know she put this together. Okay. Rob didn't.
[01:24:48] I don't know if Rob left church. Yeah. Brunch. Graduation. Or he going to pick the paper up. Um, how old do how? He's 40. I think. Okay. Okay. I think so. Yeah. Okay. Do we know what Rob does?
[01:25:16] He's an airline gate agent. You might see him on tour. Oh, oh, well, listen. Listen. Them gate agents. Get put through the ringer. Sure. Okay. So now that's you see how that little bit like, or Rob just got off of work. Okay. Cause you put a Southwest put a Delta little button right there. Yeah.
[01:25:45] I have a friend of mine. He told me that no matter what gate he's in, they say zone one boarding. He gets on the plane. Robert. That is my biggest fear. Oh my God. No. And, and, and this person is not that person. I feel like that would, that would try that type of, that type of thing. Um, they said they never had a problem.
[01:26:16] I have seen too many blind items. Somebody, you know, no. And sometimes I'll travel with Wendell and he'll be like, we can just say we're on the same reservation. No. That's one thing I don't play with. I get. Yeah. Zone three. Mm hmm. Still priority, but zone three. Yeah. Oh, your bag in the overhead. Yes. Mm hmm.
[01:26:48] Listen, uh, who just had me nervous. Rob, I don't play that. Oh my God. The people that do that. I just don't understand. And then the, um, it's just the second hand. And you'd be surprised. You would not think it would be this person. Oh. And then you got to play it off. Like, Oh, you didn't call group. They said they never had a problem. I don't believe it. Yeah. So then that also is like, so that do they be lying?
[01:27:17] Like they'd be like, yeah, your boarding pass can't scan. If it like, so y'all just be lying. I could never. Oh, now I'm a stickler to that. That that's. But I feel like I've seen people that they go to this. Oh, sorry. You're not in this. You're, you're, you're zone eight, but this person said they never had a problem. I feel like they lying. I feel like they lying. That.
[01:27:47] Ooh, that. Mm hmm. That's. That's my, my, my airport. Yeah. Yeah. I don't play with the zones. Yeah. And the second I get to the airport, I just need to walk to see my gate and know that it exists. Mm hmm. And then I could go get a snack or go. I like to see is the plane there. Cause they do be cutting it like real close. It's like, it's like my plane is says it's boarding in a minute and the planes not here.
[01:28:15] And now, and, and they don't tell you nothing. But they didn't say it's delayed. So I don't know. Yeah. That the airport be sneaky. Uh, but back to Mike. Okay. No one. Rob. Or is it Levi? Not Levi. We know Lewis, AKA Levi, but right. Okay. So this tells me a lot. Cause at first I didn't really, I know, but him being a gay agent.
[01:28:45] There used to be this show. I forget the name of it. Uh, but they used to like follow around people at an airport and like you almost was like parking wars that they did in Philadelphia. And it was a lot with like Southwest airline. This was like maybe in the two thousand and it just followed the, that the front desk people and like the supervisors that all they had to deal with. Um, so that tells me he can handle a lot.
[01:29:14] A lot more than what we know. He looks physically fit. He has hands on the hip. Letting us know that he's strong hand down, letting us know that he is willing to play. We see them thumbs. And so I don't know if that customer services, that's where it's going. Like, you know, he might want to always have to appease. I don't know.
[01:29:37] But him being that gate person that, that, that knocks them up a couple of notches. Um, who listen, we love our people in the airline industry. T bird is a, a legend. And so we already got one. Yes. And okay. We got a flight attendant. We got a pilot. And now we got the front gate. Okay. Listen, we got a whole airline. R H AP airlines. Yeah. We're ready to go.
[01:30:08] Um, could we, uh, get a little bit of a closer look at the, the vest? Okay. Can we, can we see the shoes? Are they slip ons? They better, they better be Oxford. I think he got one slip on, but I bet it's gonna be on his feet all day. I, they, it's probably a steel toe and a nine slip.
[01:30:36] So listen, I, I see you Rob. Yeah. Okay. All right. Next, let's talk about Sharonda. Oh, here's Sharonda. It's, it's very, this season is very, it's either business casual or it's like, you know, I've done two previews with Mike Bloom. Uh, so the people at the back of the alphabet, I don't really know a lot about them, uh, yet.
[01:31:04] So I have not talked about these people really since the day the cast came out. So I don't really know a lot about them, but Sharonda, she is a, over the last year. OBGYN. Come on, Sharonda, Dr. Sharonda. Mm-hmm. Okay. So we know she, she's about her business. We know she's knowledgeable.
[01:31:31] We know she's high under pressure. She's delivering babies. Yeah. She's out here screening. Very strong. And my, it's, it's kind of. You say she's screening. You know, different screenings. When you go get your, your yearly checkup. Oh. Yes. Yeah. I didn't know if that was like a term I didn't know. Oh no. I'm just saying. Look at her. She's screening.
[01:32:00] She, she does preventative healthcare. Sure. Okay. She's out here saving lives. And it's funny that you say that because when I look at her, I get that. Like I can see it. Hands on the hip. All right. Hands crossed in a winner pose. But again, it's not a like, oh, I'm here to win. Right. It's like, I know what I give. I know what I do. Smiling. Foot out. Again, very strong.
[01:32:27] Now this type of position is more to be braced. Like, I don't feel like she's going to go after, but I feel like she's bracing. So it's like, she's like, I'm gonna be here and what's going to come my way. I'm going to figure it out. Energy high. Like, I just, I get a sense of, I don't want to say like, oh, but there's something about doctor. Mm hmm.
[01:32:56] And so I, I like it. Okay. Arms folded. No thumbs. No thumbs. Mm hmm. Nails painted bracelet. Mm hmm. Anything on the stance? Not just it's, it's not the traditional locked in. I'm a little worried.
[01:33:20] I feel like she, I feel like we've seldom seen a leg at such an angle of that. You know, she has like neither leg seems firmly planted. Correct. And that's what I was saying where the stance kind of looks more like she's, it's not a stance of like, I'm going to go after.
[01:33:44] It's more of a stance of like, I feel like she would be, she's in defense mode. Right. Like where I'm ready for what's coming at me because I know y'all going to try me. And so she's positive up top. Like, hey, what's up? But like, she's ready down below and she's prepared. Yeah. Okay. Okay. It's what is Sharonda? Sharonda. Dr. Sharonda. Okay. I like the energy. All right.
[01:34:11] And then, believe it or not, last person, I believe, uh, Tunaan. Okay. I'm here. I love the look. Love the pose. Yeah. So she's got like a big cardigan. Which is very smart.
[01:34:32] Again, like I said, this cast is either it's business casual or it's what's up? We going out. Uh, and so I, I, I, the classic look, hands on the hips. She seems fun. She seems fit. She's a medical student. I, her and Dr. Sharonda. Boom. Okay. I like how we got a lot of people together.
[01:35:01] The thing that is concerning me is her stance. Now, two things. One, her foot is like just tilted, which I, it's cute. Yeah. Little look. Boom. Right. And so that worries me because it's like, are you going to be easily pushed over? Are you going like, you know, like there's just no defense or you not fighting.
[01:35:30] You not like you just, I'm concerned, but also it gives like, why worry? Mm-hmm. Why? Like, what do I, what do I even need to do all of that for? Right. And so the, it's, it's a, a silent cocky. You know, the one, uh, Randy Michael Savage, he was very much giving that.
[01:35:59] And she's giving that with that foot like that, where she just like, I don't even have to get in a stance cause I'm here and I know what I bring. And she's letting us know with her hands on the hip that she's, she's here to play survivor. And so I feel like this is very interesting. I, she is definitely one to watch.
[01:36:28] Uh, she's smart. She's a med student and she, she, she's here. I, I like it. Yeah. I'm a little bit more concerned about the, the feet and the footwork. I feel like you really turned me on to seeing whose feet are planted. The feet don't lie. I feel like that you can lie with your upper body, but the feet tell the truth. Yes.
[01:36:56] But two things can be true. This could, I'm trying to tell you, Robert, this could be a very cocky pose that you would never pick up on that. You have to be very confident in yourself and your abilities to know. Yeah. So what? So what? So relaxed, like it could be nervous or it could just be totally like, like, I don't even care. Nonchalant. Right. Right.
[01:37:24] And that's a little concerning, but I don't get that because again, posture is very together. So that's why it's like, huh. Yeah. And I don't even mean nonchalant in a bad way. Like, I feel like that nonchalant I think is better than I care so much that I'm nervous. Like, uh, so I think non, a little nonchalant is good. She ain't worried about you. She not worried. Mm hmm. I like her.
[01:37:53] I think, I think she'll do well. All right. So this, we've done an incredible job going through a 21 people and that very few times that I feel like that it has been so decisive that a man and a woman that you feel so strongly about that it's jelly and Lewis. That's it.
[01:38:14] Now I don't, and I, because this season, there's Levi, Levi, Levi Lewis and jelly for me are like my standouts. Uh, yeah. So I don't even need, I don't even need to play games. Mm hmm. Yeah. We'll see final, put them in the final three. Final three. Give me one. Who's in the final three with them?
[01:38:41] It was like, so it was so, such a runaway for these two. Who's the zero vote finalist? Oh, don't say that Robert. Um, give me, Oh, morning glow. Oh, Oh, Oh yes. Okay. Okay. There you go. Uh, Jess, uh, says, uh, that Linnea Linnea. Mm hmm. Yeah.
[01:39:11] That's good. That's a good one. That's a good top three. I mean, they all could be influences. Okay. We could get a R H A P. Yes. Get a R H A P house. R H A P. Oh, I mean, can you imagine and put them all there? Put it on chat BCC, AKA Ramble. Get on there. Yeah. Okay. But. Bryce. Where's the first tour stop? We are in New York city. NYC. Uh, NYC.
[01:39:40] So tickets are available for the Bryce and win 50 fun. Uh, it's looking like a great season. And so, yeah, we're hitting Washington, DC, Chicago, Baltimore, LA. We are also hosting premier party. So if you're in Baltimore, Gabe is going to be holding it down and Tiffany is hosting a party in LA. So listen, the baby boys got you covered. Uh, we'll be in Boston, Philadelphia. Uh, we're excited. Okay. All right. Well, this was so fun.
