[1:34] Speaker 3: Yeah, but I this is uh, it is like a mullet.
[1:41] Speaker 2: It kind of works for you though, because you've had
[1:43] Speaker 2: longer hair before, yes, and it's not like it's not
[1:47] Speaker 2: shocking to see a mullet on you. In other words, thanks.
[1:51] Speaker 3: Man, I really appreciate it.
[1:53] Speaker 2: This will it'll be.

[1:57] Speaker 3: and you don't know what the Sanctuary is. We have
[2:00] Speaker 3: our main pod that we do every week where we
[2:02] Speaker 3: recap the episodes. Our first one went out last Thursday.
[2:07] Speaker 3: We finally season forty nine premiere. But Sanctuary, this is
[2:11] Speaker 3: where we let our mullets out.
[2:15] Speaker 2: Let's let that mullet fly in the wind like a flag.
[2:18] Speaker 2: You know.
[2:19] Speaker 3: This is the show where we like to have a
[2:20] Speaker 3: little bit of fun. And I'm not gonna promise anything,
[2:24] Speaker 3: but we've got some really fun guests this whole season.
[2:27] Speaker 3: Planning yeah, yeah, you know, but planned does not mean
[2:32] Speaker 3: for sure gonna happen. Because if there's one thing I've
[2:34] Speaker 3: learned about Survivor players, is even though they were on TV,
[2:40] Speaker 3: it doesn't mean that they like, yeah, they have real jobs.
[2:45] Speaker 2: They've got lives and let's put some on a lockdown,
[2:49] Speaker 2: you know. So it's you gotta you got some things
[2:52] Speaker 2: to dodge and some things to wait out. So, speaking of.
[2:56] Speaker 3: Things to dodge, PD is not here today.
[3:00] Speaker 2: Oh thank goodness. We did dodge that, you know.
[3:02] Speaker 3: Yeah, but we didn't dodge him completely because we did
[3:05] Speaker 3: get a voice memo boo. So I think what I'm
[3:12] Speaker 3: gonna do is I'm gonna go ahead and play that
[3:13] Speaker 3: now and we can just kind of kind of hear
[3:15] Speaker 3: what he has to say. We'll see.
[3:19] Speaker 4: What's up, guys. I have something very important to do
[3:22] Speaker 4: right now. You know, the Sanctuary has been gone for
[3:24] Speaker 4: a while, so people have been waiting for the updates.
[3:27] Speaker 4: They're like, where are the updates?
[3:29] Speaker 2: We've been waiting for so long?
[3:30] Speaker 3: And I'm here to provide that.
[3:32] Speaker 4: So this is the latest installment of Keeping Up with
[3:35] Speaker 4: Katy Perry or keeping Up with Katie. I think that,
[3:38] Speaker 4: you know that has a better ring to it, Keeping
[3:39] Speaker 4: up with Katie.
[3:40] Speaker 3: Let's go with that. I have a very important article
[3:43] Speaker 3: to read here.
[3:43] Speaker 4: So as we know, Orlando bloom and Katie split. I
[3:46] Speaker 4: think we discussed this a little bit last year. We
[3:49] Speaker 4: talked about how they hadn't gotten married and it had
[3:52] Speaker 4: been a long time.
[3:54] Speaker 3: But we have an update post split.
[3:56] Speaker 4: Insiders claim Orlando Bloom's big mistake with Kate Perry has
[4:01] Speaker 4: led him down a rabbit hole. They said it was
[4:05] Speaker 4: humbling for him and she was the best.
[4:07] Speaker 2: Thing that ever happened to him. And the longer he.
[4:10] Speaker 4: Reflects where he's headed right now, the more anxious he feels,
[4:13] Speaker 4: the more it sinks in that he's made a big
[4:15] Speaker 4: mistake letting.
[4:16] Speaker 3: Katie slip through his fingers.
[4:18] Speaker 4: And they added Orlando's telling people he's trying to make
[4:21] Speaker 4: nice with Katie.
[4:23] Speaker 2: He wants the courage.
[4:24] Speaker 4: To ask for another chance. All right, That's all I
[4:26] Speaker 4: wanted to say. Stay tuned for next week where we
[4:29] Speaker 4: check him with Gail King.
[4:33] Speaker 2: Big news this week, Sanctuary.
[4:36] Speaker 3: You know what's crazy is I don't think anyone heard
[4:38] Speaker 3: the news about Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry split and thought, oh,
[4:42] Speaker 3: Orlando Bloom messed up.
[4:44] Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't think anybody.
[4:46] Speaker 3: I think everybody. Guys, if you if you're not a
[4:49] Speaker 3: longtime listener of this shoot podcast, which we've only done.
[4:52] Speaker 3: This is the third season. Last year, for some reason,
[4:56] Speaker 3: Katy Perry just kept coming up on the Sanctuary episodes,
[4:59] Speaker 3: and so PD is really taking upon himself, uh, to
[5:02] Speaker 3: be the Katie Update King.
[5:05] Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you know it was well, Gail King, if
[5:07] Speaker 2: you will, the kt update. But that's because they both
[5:10] Speaker 2: went to space last year. It was a big thing topically.
[5:14] Speaker 2: Then p D covered a Katy Perry song as a parody, which,
[5:20] Speaker 2: by the way, was the first time I'd ever heard
[5:22] Speaker 2: that song in general was Pet's version of yeah, yeah,
[5:26] Speaker 2: I do too, because now it's like I only hear
[5:29] Speaker 2: his voice singing that song. But yeah, no, I don't know.
[5:33] Speaker 2: Is Katy Perry's hot gossip going to continue through you know,
[5:37] Speaker 2: the Sanctuary.
[5:39] Speaker 3: To find out? Ever Monday or I don't know when
[5:44] Speaker 3: these come out.
[5:44] Speaker 2: That's whenever they come out.
[5:46] Speaker 3: Hey, look, our job is to be entertaining. P d's
[5:50] Speaker 3: job is to do all the scheduling and the enditing
[5:52] Speaker 3: and the actual work.
[5:53] Speaker 2: He's like the TMZ of us, you know.
[5:56] Speaker 3: Yeah, he's twenty four to seven. He's just in a
[5:58] Speaker 3: bullpen with a bunch of white peace waiting for tragedy
[6:02] Speaker 3: to strike.
[6:03] Speaker 2: With a really shaky camera following yeah, yes.
[6:07] Speaker 3: And then whenever anything happens, he makes sure to report
[6:10] Speaker 3: directly to the sanctuary. So that way are our mergies.
[6:13] Speaker 3: That's what we call our.
[6:13] Speaker 2: Fans, I think. So maybe we call them our JODI's.
[6:18] Speaker 3: You know, that's what they call military when military spouses
[6:24] Speaker 3: cheat on their Yeah, they're called jody's. So it's like,
[6:30] Speaker 3: you know, like when uh, a guy is married right
[6:35] Speaker 3: to this woman. You're married, you know, I'm may we're
[6:37] Speaker 3: married ye to each other.
[6:40] Speaker 2: Yeah, we did. We did that last year. We liked
[6:43] Speaker 2: being on the season so much together.
[6:45] Speaker 3: Yeah, but uh yeah, say a guy is married and
[6:50] Speaker 3: he's in the military, so he goes away to the military.
[6:54] Speaker 3: His wife's at home. That's our wife. Now, oh that's
[6:58] Speaker 3: like public domain. That's anybody's wife because he's overseas, you know,
[7:03] Speaker 3: unbelieva for his country.
[7:06] Speaker 2: See, these are the deep dodves. People don't get though,
[7:08] Speaker 2: when it's the regular episode of Making the Merge, right, Like,

[8:22] Speaker 3: Rob has a podcast is making some waves in not
[8:28] Speaker 3: just the survivor world lately. No, no, are you a
[8:32] Speaker 3: frequent flyer, Jonathan?
[8:36] Speaker 2: Like, No, I wouldn't say I'm on a plane all that.
[8:39] Speaker 3: Not on a plane. When you fly? How would you.
[8:43] Speaker 2: Say I'm gonna I'm gonna just say once a.
[8:46] Speaker 3: Year, Okay, when you fly? Do you fly American Airlines
[8:51] Speaker 3: per chance.
[8:53] Speaker 2: I usually fly whatever's paid for by whoever's flying me. There,
[8:57] Speaker 2: you know last flight I took American Airlinese.
[9:01] Speaker 3: Oh, Jonathan, when you are on your American Airlines flight,
[9:08] Speaker 3: did you happen to watch anything on the screens?
[9:11] Speaker 2: Absolutely no, I did not.
[9:13] Speaker 3: Oh okay, well, if you had, what you would have
[9:16] Speaker 3: noticed is that Rob has a podcast is now streaming
[9:20] Speaker 3: on every American Airlines flight. You can listen to Rob
[9:23] Speaker 3: has a podcast. I know it seems crazy, we're talking
[9:25] Speaker 3: about a different survivor podcast on this Urvivor podcast.
[9:28] Speaker 2: But there is a sanctuary.
[9:30] Speaker 3: That's where good things happen, good pods.
[9:32] Speaker 2: Happen, good pods and discussions.
[9:35] Speaker 3: So that's really first of all, let's get a round
[9:37] Speaker 3: of applause for getting on the American Airlines flights. Right,
[9:42] Speaker 3: you can watch Yeah, here's where it gets to be iffy.
[9:48] Speaker 3: Apparently every time you go to watch anything on an
[9:53] Speaker 3: American Airlines flight, oh no, you get a thirty second
[9:57] Speaker 3: ad from Rob himself promoting that you can listen to
[10:02] Speaker 3: the podcast on the flight. Every single time you try
[10:06] Speaker 3: to watch anything.
[10:10] Speaker 2: Man, I don't know.
[10:12] Speaker 3: So in the American Airline subreddit people have been going
[10:18] Speaker 3: off about how annoying is to.
[10:23] Speaker 2: Be, and it's very reddit of them here.
[10:27] Speaker 3: I'm just gonna start reading you some and you know,
[10:30] Speaker 3: at the end of this, this is the game. At
[10:31] Speaker 3: the end of this, when I'm done reading all a
[10:33] Speaker 3: bunch of the what people have to say about this,
[10:35] Speaker 3: I want you to decide if you think that it's
[10:39] Speaker 3: okay and that we're happy for rock, or that it's
[10:44] Speaker 3: super annoying and we need to call Rob up and
[10:47] Speaker 3: confront him about this.
[10:48] Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm glad I'm the deciding factor on this. Go
[10:53] Speaker 2: for it.
[10:53] Speaker 3: Oh, absolutely all right. The most upvoted comment on this post.
[11:02] Speaker 3: First of all the original post is don't know why,
[11:04] Speaker 3: but this guy annoys me, and then in the in
[11:10] Speaker 3: the capture says irrational. I know, but I don't care
[11:12] Speaker 3: about reality TV.
[11:15] Speaker 2: Okay, okay, bad start start top the top.
[11:18] Speaker 3: The most upvoted response is the real frequent flyers understand.
[11:24] Speaker 2: Oh I cannot wait to hear how bad.
[11:31] Speaker 3: Some The smart Dog Underscore two seventy five says, I
[11:35] Speaker 3: normally just keep it muted and keep listening to my
[11:37] Speaker 3: music until it finishes. I do this too, but just
[11:41] Speaker 3: seeing his face is enough of a trigger.
[11:43] Speaker 2: Oh god, I'm going to be honest.
[11:48] Speaker 3: I didn't fly a lot until recently. So no, my
[11:51] Speaker 3: first time flying American was this spring and I took
[11:53] Speaker 3: twelve flights total with them. Uh. And then I think
[11:57] Speaker 3: these are bots at this point because they're like, gotcha,
[11:59] Speaker 3: welcome a boy.
[12:01] Speaker 2: Oh nice. Yeah, that's a good old Reddit bots.
[12:04] Speaker 3: I'm trying to break up some of these mean comments
[12:06] Speaker 3: with some goofy ones.
[12:07] Speaker 2: I like it. I like hit me, hit me with
[12:10] Speaker 2: all of them, you know. Okay, oh yeah, yeah, all
[12:12] Speaker 2: the bot messages just went.
[12:14] Speaker 3: To London and back and must have watched that about
[12:16] Speaker 3: one hundred times. It's so irritating.
[12:20] Speaker 2: Okay, okay, okay.
[12:22] Speaker 3: They played before every movie and it's about thirty seconds long. Obnoxious.
[12:27] Speaker 2: Now okay, I'm gonna stop there. How long are the
[12:30] Speaker 2: flights that these people are on because they've seen before
[12:33] Speaker 2: every movie? Oh look, yes, the flights I've ended up on.
[12:37] Speaker 2: I barely finish a movie because they're not you know,
[12:40] Speaker 2: you watch a two hour movie, it's just at the beginning.
[12:43] Speaker 2: You're only seeing that message once.
[12:46] Speaker 3: That's what I would think. But the shawnee G twenty
[12:49] Speaker 3: two said he's great I've been listening to him for
[12:52] Speaker 3: fifteen years. But on a recent flight, I was like, Oh,
[12:55] Speaker 3: that's so cool. He made it to a big stage
[12:57] Speaker 3: like every American Airlines flight. But then after the tenth time,
[13:02] Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, this pops up every time I watch
[13:04] Speaker 3: something on this flight. How are you watching ten movies?
[13:08] Speaker 3: The shawnee G twenty Round.
[13:10] Speaker 2: The World in eighty days kind of thing.
[13:12] Speaker 3: Happening going to Taiwan.
[13:17] Speaker 2: I like to think that he's going back from Australia
[13:20] Speaker 2: over Europe, back to the US and going back in time,
[13:23] Speaker 2: time zones and just living on a plane for twenty
[13:26] Speaker 2: four hours.
[13:27] Speaker 3: Shawnee G was actually on the recent Survivor Australia show.
[13:33] Speaker 2: What oh no Oh. I was like, how did I guess?
[13:38] Speaker 2: I'm too gullible? Chase? This is why I can't be
[13:40] Speaker 2: on the Sanctuary. Okay, Okay, I do. There is kind
[13:46] Speaker 2: of that. I feel like there is that annoyance that
[13:49] Speaker 2: happens even when you are familiar with somebody, Like there
[13:52] Speaker 2: is you know, like gas stations, how they now just
[13:55] Speaker 2: have TVs on the gas stations. Yeah, and it'll be
[13:59] Speaker 2: like a celebrity that you're semi okay with and they
[14:02] Speaker 2: just pop up and they're like, hey, here's the weather,
[14:04] Speaker 2: and you're like, dude, I'm pumping gas, Like I don't
[14:07] Speaker 2: really even want you here. Yeah, that's kind of the
[14:10] Speaker 2: same feel.
[14:11] Speaker 3: For a minute. I could probably catch I could probably
[14:14] Speaker 3: catch a couple movies while I'm sitting.
[14:16] Speaker 2: Yeah, you're look while you're pumping gas too. You're like,
[14:18] Speaker 2: I've got to make at least two more YouTube videos
[14:21] Speaker 2: to make up.
[14:23] Speaker 3: Hey hey, rob as a podcast gets the American airline flights,
[14:27] Speaker 3: what if we get commercials on every gas pump from
[14:29] Speaker 3: making the most and every time you get one gallon
[14:33] Speaker 3: of gas, it plays our ad Again.
[14:35] Speaker 2: I like it. I like it. I like that. Here's
[14:38] Speaker 2: the idea I like is that it actually plays not us,
[14:42] Speaker 2: but it plays just the ads from making the merge episodes,
[14:46] Speaker 2: so that we get we double dip a little bit,
[14:49] Speaker 2: so we get like an ad for like for whatever,
[14:53] Speaker 2: you know, Ryan Seacrest starts talking, but it's actually on
[14:55] Speaker 2: our feed, so we get the money and we get
[14:58] Speaker 2: the gas station TV money.
[15:00] Speaker 3: I think we're onto something here. It's a movie where
[15:02] Speaker 3: a bunch of hackers hack into gas stations to hook
[15:06] Speaker 3: up their podcast RSS feed, So that way they get
[15:09] Speaker 3: impressions for every time, and it plays on those fels.
[15:13] Speaker 2: We need to write those mist It's tasty.
[15:15] Speaker 3: Yeah, Brad Pitt is the lead hacker.
[15:18] Speaker 2: This is the Ocean's eleven for twenty twenty six. I'm
[15:22] Speaker 2: seeing it right now. We get all of we get
[15:24] Speaker 2: some big stars, some big you know, Glenn Powell, maybe
[15:28] Speaker 2: Sydney Sweeney, and they're really big names.
[15:31] Speaker 3: I've heard she's had great genes.
[15:33] Speaker 2: Oh maybe we'll see. We'll see how they are for
[15:36] Speaker 2: this movie. But then you know, we have Timothy Shallow
[15:39] Speaker 2: may right, maybe the tech guy who hacks in with
[15:42] Speaker 2: it and then and puts us on guys because we're
[15:46] Speaker 2: in the movie too.
[15:46] Speaker 3: Well, of course we're too vating to not write a
[15:49] Speaker 3: whole movie.
[15:50] Speaker 2: We've got to be at it. Yeah, yeah, and then
[15:53] Speaker 2: we hack it to the gas station.
[15:54] Speaker 3: Were some big A listers. I mean, do you think
[15:57] Speaker 3: like a like a Christopher Walken could maybe do this movie?
[16:00] Speaker 2: I think so. I think so he could maybe be
[16:02] Speaker 2: the veteran right who sits back I pulled the ice before.
[16:08] Speaker 3: You know, like that he was retired, but we brought
[16:11] Speaker 3: him back in retired.
[16:13] Speaker 2: Was it gonna do it again? I told my wife,
[16:20] Speaker 2: I wouldn't you hack en up the gas station?
[16:24] Speaker 3: Making the merge needs the impressions for the RSS feed.
[16:32] Speaker 2: I worried about the click through rate.
[16:35] Speaker 3: Rob has a podcast on American airlines.
[16:40] Speaker 2: Uh, we do better. It's okay. Now back to Rob,
[16:47] Speaker 2: though there is I worry because I worry. It's like
[16:52] Speaker 2: I'm gonna call Rob and be like, are you okay?
[16:55] Speaker 3: That's what we decide to do.
[16:56] Speaker 2: There is okay, okay. There is a quality to Rob's
[17:00] Speaker 2: voice that might might rub people the wrong way if
[17:03] Speaker 2: they are not a fan. Just I mean, just like
[17:07] Speaker 2: any of us. I guess if they hate our voices,
[17:09] Speaker 2: they don't want to hear us. But there is an
[17:11] Speaker 2: aggressive kind of how would you describe his.
[17:16] Speaker 3: A broadcaster voice. It's a very innerget It's the same
[17:20] Speaker 3: reason people make fun of like YouTubers for being like
[17:23] Speaker 3: what's up guys?
[17:24] Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, exactly, And so it's I think if I
[17:28] Speaker 2: was on an airplane and I wanted to watch just
[17:32] Speaker 2: a movie and I was hit with that, I would
[17:34] Speaker 2: also be a little bit annoyed. Yeah, so part of
[17:38] Speaker 2: me sides with people there. However, you know you're already
[17:43] Speaker 2: on a plane, right, what are you.
[17:45] Speaker 3: Expectable of a situation. Here's what I'll say. This is
[17:48] Speaker 3: not on ROB, this is on American Airlines.
[17:50] Speaker 2: I agree they.
[17:51] Speaker 3: Shouldn't be playing the ad that much because look at
[17:53] Speaker 3: listen to this comment from small Z four to twenty.
[17:57] Speaker 2: Okay, you have to.
[17:58] Speaker 3: Hear him twice to watch a movie movie slash show,
[18:01] Speaker 3: Like what wtf?
[18:03] Speaker 2: Yeah, twice before them? Is it the same add or
[18:07] Speaker 2: is he just reading.
[18:08] Speaker 3: Like I think it's the same. Thirty second, that's pretty right.
[18:11] Speaker 3: They're playing it back to back every episode. Like, if
[18:14] Speaker 3: you're watching a show, you have to get it before
[18:16] Speaker 3: every episode.
[18:16] Speaker 2: Dude, I didn't think about shows. You know, you watch
[18:20] Speaker 2: sitcom or something, and I mean.
[18:22] Speaker 3: Say you're sitting back, you're watching wipe Out on American
[18:25] Speaker 3: Airlines flight two four from Seattle, and your episode's like
[18:30] Speaker 3: fifteen minutes top. You're well, you're dying laughing. You're watching
[18:33] Speaker 3: these old white ladies getting knocked by the big balls.
[18:36] Speaker 3: And every minutes there's like a quasi theme song of
[18:41] Speaker 3: Rob c being like I'm Rob from the Rob has
[18:45] Speaker 3: a podcast podcast.
[18:47] Speaker 2: And then there's also there's it doesn't feel like it's
[18:52] Speaker 2: connected in any way, right because even the name Rob
[18:56] Speaker 2: has a podcast. If you don't know who he is
[19:00] Speaker 2: or that it's a reality show thing, it's just a
[19:02] Speaker 2: guy named Rob showing up on your screen being like
[19:05] Speaker 2: I have a podcast. It's like nothing, there's no connection.
[19:10] Speaker 2: So I do think it is on a marriage.
[19:13] Speaker 3: It's more than I But here's what I'll say to
[19:17] Speaker 3: a lot of defenders in this reddit post. A lot,
[19:20] Speaker 3: but a lot of people are coming to his bat.
[19:23] Speaker 3: I have single hand I programmed a bot so that
[19:27] Speaker 3: every time someone hates on Rob in this reddit thread,
[19:31] Speaker 3: it sends them their IP address and a death thread.
[19:34] Speaker 2: No okay, well I was thinking that it would send
[19:38] Speaker 2: them another ad.
[19:40] Speaker 3: The same ads, so they have to watch it again.
[19:43] Speaker 3: But it's a pop up, so they can't. They can't.
[19:46] Speaker 2: It's a pop up and it says you you have
[19:49] Speaker 2: been tagged in a comment, but to see the comment,
[19:52] Speaker 2: you have to watch this this.
[19:54] Speaker 3: Thirty second add twice.
[19:57] Speaker 2: Two times, which is a minute. Got a minute of
[20:00] Speaker 2: Rob that you getta watch for you.
[20:04] Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean, we we can keep burning this
[20:06] Speaker 3: into the ground, but I'm gonna end it with this. Uh.
[20:10] Speaker 3: A lot of these comments just kind of sound like
[20:12] Speaker 3: it's Trump saying it.
[20:14] Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I hate.
[20:16] Speaker 3: How he enunciates his his words. The worst.
[20:22] Speaker 2: Rob's podcast.
[20:24] Speaker 3: You know it's it's a great podcast. People are talking,
[20:26] Speaker 3: it's a great podcast.
[20:28] Speaker 2: Many people, lots of people are the.
[20:31] Speaker 3: Mad podcast. I say, okay, but I'm not gonna listen.
[20:35] Speaker 3: I'm not gonna listen.
[20:38] Speaker 2: Oh, dude, I know the Merch.
[20:41] Speaker 3: I'm a making the Merch fan.
[20:43] Speaker 2: In the spirit of impersonations, I had a random impersonation
[20:47] Speaker 2: hit me today. Okay, then I think I nailed all right,
[20:51] Speaker 2: it's it's Werner Hrskoff, the director you know is do
[20:56] Speaker 2: you know? Do you know that voice?
[20:58] Speaker 3: Yeah?
[20:59] Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, because he talks like this right here with
[21:05] Speaker 5: a little bit of something slow at the back.
[21:10] Speaker 2: I think I nailed it. You're very welcome. Yeah, that was.
[21:13] Speaker 3: Making the deep deep pull. Dude, Like people are going
[21:17] Speaker 3: to make a Reddit thread being like, why has he
[21:18] Speaker 3: talked about Werner?
[21:20] Speaker 2: Is he talking about on the Making the Merch podcast? Yeah,
[21:25] Speaker 2: it's Look if you look him up, look at Werner
[21:28] Speaker 2: and you'll know I'm absolutely nailing it. But I do.
[21:34] Speaker 4: Uh.
[21:34] Speaker 2: Back to this whole American Airlines thing, it is it's
[21:38] Speaker 2: an American and it is really cool that Rob you
[21:40] Speaker 2: got to do this, but I hate that there's this
[21:43] Speaker 2: blowback on it because it's excessive.
[21:46] Speaker 3: Nah No, because I mean, how exciting, what a great opportunity.
[21:51] Speaker 2: I mean, if we got that call they're like, you
[21:53] Speaker 2: know you want you want making the merge on it,
[21:55] Speaker 2: I'd be like, if people are mad about it, who cares,
[21:58] Speaker 2: I'm going to throw my aime out there.
[22:01] Speaker 3: They would never we would never be able to do
[22:03] Speaker 3: this because the ss that we signed the contract, we
[22:06] Speaker 3: would immediately start making bomb threats on the podcast. Someone's
[22:10] Speaker 3: headphones fall out. You just hear me spam, I've.
[22:12] Speaker 2: Got a bomb. I think if we tried to do
[22:15] Speaker 2: it immediately, one of us would text and say, actually,
[22:19] Speaker 2: that night to record it doesn't work for me? Could
[22:21] Speaker 2: we try next Monday instead. That's that's a.
[22:24] Speaker 3: You move, dog, that's a U.
[22:26] Speaker 2: Yeah, says one of the guys who actually made it
[22:31] Speaker 2: tonight the record.
[22:33] Speaker 3: Yes. Yeah, but but that's okay because PD we we
[22:38] Speaker 3: scheduled this.
[22:38] Speaker 2: No, yea. He wouldn't be able to make it totally. Brand.
[22:41] Speaker 3: It's a little too late for Brand. He has a family. Yeah,
[22:45] Speaker 3: and you know your family left you, Yeah.
[22:48] Speaker 2: I mean they were here and then I said I've
[22:50] Speaker 2: got to record this, and she was like, you're acting
[22:53] Speaker 2: like a real Orlando Bloom and said, you're gonna you know,
[22:57] Speaker 2: you're gonna regret this and walk down so and she and.
[23:00] Speaker 3: She was like, you're going to start telling people that
[23:02] Speaker 3: you're you're trying to get back in her good books.
[23:05] Speaker 2: That's actually what I was going to say right now
[23:08] Speaker 2: is that I'm really starting to consider this. It's making
[23:11] Speaker 2: me really anxious, and I just want to. I think
[23:14] Speaker 2: I'm going to ask her to take me back.
[23:18] Speaker 3: What's gonna You probably should because I think I think
[23:21] Speaker 3: your wife is going to be going to space with
[23:23] Speaker 3: Gail King soon. Oh yeah, And so you kind of
[23:27] Speaker 3: you want to get invited to that. You don't want to?
[23:29] Speaker 3: I want to?
[23:29] Speaker 2: I want to, Yeah, I don't want to miss that. Hey, Chase, Yeah,
[23:33] Speaker 2: I want to know how you feel heading towards the
[23:36] Speaker 2: draft right now?
[23:38] Speaker 3: Oh good good.
[23:40] Speaker 6: It's anything that's floating out there for you, like you
[23:44] Speaker 6: next week, it changes even going into the sanctuary. We
[23:49] Speaker 6: will we will never go back to us not having
[23:52] Speaker 6: our teams.
[23:53] Speaker 3: Yeah. And and the thing about our draft is once
[23:56] Speaker 3: those players get drafted, the boxing gloves come on and
[24:00] Speaker 3: it's pretty. It gets pretty intense throughout the season, especially
[24:04] Speaker 3: that we have our team names too, so we'll have
[24:06] Speaker 3: I know, our patrons locking in with different teams. You
[24:09] Speaker 3: have the Flint and Steelers or the just the Steelers
[24:13] Speaker 3: chases fake idols. I'm hoping to get at least twenty
[24:16] Speaker 3: people locked in with the fake idols.
[24:18] Speaker 2: Yep. Yeah.
[24:19] Speaker 3: But here's what I'll say about the draft. I've got
[24:22] Speaker 3: a strategy. Oh I'm pretty sure it's the same as
[24:26] Speaker 3: everyone else's, which is, I'm going to try to draft
[24:28] Speaker 3: the two people we know are coming back for fifty.
[24:33] Speaker 3: But let me get your opinion on this, because I
[24:35] Speaker 3: know you have a secret strategy that you're not going
[24:37] Speaker 3: to talk about, but I'm going to ask you this.
[24:40] Speaker 3: Do you think Survivor would bring back of the two
[24:45] Speaker 3: people that are coming back? Do you think that they
[24:48] Speaker 3: would bring back a winner? Or would that they be
[24:50] Speaker 3: too afraid that that's going to spoil season forty nine.
[24:54] Speaker 2: I think that CBS would be smart enough to know
[24:57] Speaker 2: that leaks get out there. And then also, I can't
[25:02] Speaker 2: remember who's coming back from forty eight. It's Joe Right
[25:07] Speaker 2: and Kyle Gott and but you know in that three
[25:12] Speaker 2: you only have one person who won and two that
[25:16] Speaker 2: are that didn't. Now, I think it would be a
[25:22] Speaker 2: really rookie mistake for CBS to send another winner from
[25:29] Speaker 2: a recent season, knowing that there's already people really wanting
[25:34] Speaker 2: that information because they want the viewership for forty nine too.
[25:39] Speaker 2: So my theory is that both of them are maybe
[25:44] Speaker 2: runner ups, but they're not the winner.
[25:46] Speaker 3: In the final three.
[25:47] Speaker 2: Because I also wonder if they would want to risk
[25:51] Speaker 2: having a person win back to back seasons forty nine and.
[25:55] Speaker 3: They've done it before, it's happened. They they've brought back
[26:00] Speaker 3: back to back players a lot.
[26:03] Speaker 2: Oh well, I'm in like as as far as the winner, Like,
[26:06] Speaker 2: would they want to bring a person who won forty
[26:09] Speaker 2: nine won the whole thing? Yeah, and then that same
[26:11] Speaker 2: person win fifty that like the very next season.
[26:15] Speaker 3: Would that a good quite? I don't know if it's
[26:18] Speaker 3: ever happened back to back, but there have been two
[26:19] Speaker 3: time winners of Survivor, but I can't remember if they
[26:23] Speaker 3: were back to back. I mean, one of the people
[26:25] Speaker 3: that are coming back is Riz God. Yeah, and I think, yeah,
[26:29] Speaker 3: he doesn't have to win the season too. No, I
[26:31] Speaker 3: think we all understand why he's coming back, right.
[26:33] Speaker 2: Because he's already like, I don't have to work as hard. Yeah.
[26:36] Speaker 3: Yeah, he's already super entertaining. But dude, the other person
[26:40] Speaker 3: the names.
[26:41] Speaker 2: Savanna Savannah, Yeah, I mean does she just.
[26:43] Speaker 3: Seems like a winner. Dude, she seems like a winner.
[26:47] Speaker 2: But she could just be a really good player.
[26:50] Speaker 3: But that didn't win, and so they give her another
[26:53] Speaker 3: another chance.
[26:54] Speaker 2: Yeah. I think I don't think that it means that
[26:57] Speaker 2: one of them is the winner. I think it's possible
[26:59] Speaker 2: that they're like in the top five, top three.
[27:02] Speaker 3: Even so buz saying it would be a dumb move
[27:06] Speaker 3: to draft those two.
[27:07] Speaker 2: Players, I'm not going to say anything about my theories
[27:11] Speaker 2: right because I've been I've been working overtime over here
[27:15] Speaker 2: with my with my plan and my plan thought as
[27:19] Speaker 2: I called it the you know last time. I am
[27:23] Speaker 2: feeling really good about my method. It is a completely
[27:28] Speaker 2: no one I think will have this same approach to
[27:32] Speaker 2: survivor draft at all.
[27:34] Speaker 3: I'm very excited to hear because we've seen some crazy tactics.
[27:37] Speaker 3: Last year, Brand went by their cameo prices, which I
[27:40] Speaker 3: think was clever, but it didn't end up working out
[27:43] Speaker 3: for them.
[27:43] Speaker 2: Brand's cameo pricing theory I think is a really interesting one. However,
[27:50] Speaker 2: I don't think it accounts for the same flaws that
[27:55] Speaker 2: I find happening in drafts every time. So I'll leave
[28:00] Speaker 2: you with that. I'm very confident that I've got it
[28:03] Speaker 2: in the bag.
[28:05] Speaker 3: I'm excited to see what you pull out. Because I'm
[28:07] Speaker 3: notoriously bad at drafting players.
[28:10] Speaker 2: I think that ends this season with me. I'm ready,
[28:14] Speaker 2: I'm ready for it.
[28:15] Speaker 3: Well yeah, but I was talking about me.
[28:17] Speaker 2: Yeah, but you're not.
[28:19] Speaker 3: I'm bad in drafting players. I panic every time because
[28:21] Speaker 3: I always draft last. Do you think I'm gonta draft last?
[28:24] Speaker 2: Again? I will tell you this much. I think I
[28:28] Speaker 2: have accounted for the panic in my own.
[28:34] Speaker 3: Schedule. Like you're like, I'm the final draft pick. Yeah,
[28:38] Speaker 3: three people have already been taken.
[28:40] Speaker 2: I feel I feel unconcerned about every option that could Wow. Wow, right,
[28:47] Speaker 2: I really thought this through.
[28:49] Speaker 3: Is this a method that could be replicated? Or the
[28:52] Speaker 3: second you do and we know about it, it's over.
[28:56] Speaker 2: Once? No, no, no, Once I do it, I think
[29:01] Speaker 2: that it well, it's definitely something that could be replicated. Okay, Okay,
[29:06] Speaker 2: Now I will also say, will a person want to replicate? Maybe?
[29:14] Speaker 3: Probably not.
[29:15] Speaker 2: We'll see, we'll see what happens, right, because it may
[29:18] Speaker 2: work really well and or I end up winning the
[29:23] Speaker 2: whole thing, you know.
[29:26] Speaker 3: Yeah, do you feel like there's pressure? Do you feel
[29:29] Speaker 3: like there's more pressure on you to win this season
[29:31] Speaker 3: because last season you were the co captain of your
[29:35] Speaker 3: team with your wife, who is a notoriously.
[29:38] Speaker 2: Great good draft picker. Yeah, the pressure. I think the
[29:44] Speaker 2: pressure fueled me to coming up with the method that
[29:47] Speaker 2: I have because of the fact that I felt so
[29:50] Speaker 2: much pressure thinking, Okay, no one let me celebrate my
[29:55] Speaker 2: win last ye. Immediately, even in the patreonship you know
[30:00] Speaker 2: who you are, you know, I was just like, what's
[30:03] Speaker 2: going on. I've won, and no one's cheering for me.
[30:06] Speaker 2: No one clapped for me when I opened my coconut.
[30:09] Speaker 2: You know, It's just I didn't get it. So there
[30:12] Speaker 2: is pressure this season where I think I need to
[30:17] Speaker 2: solidify this and so I've had this plan for months
[30:23] Speaker 2: on this draft, so.
[30:26] Speaker 4: Then we go.
[30:27] Speaker 3: The pressure is on for you. The pressure's on for
[30:29] Speaker 3: me because I think you know, I won season forty eight.
[30:34] Speaker 3: This is true, so season forty seven.
[30:36] Speaker 2: That's not true. Forty seven.
[30:38] Speaker 3: I won season forty seven, which was the first season
[30:41] Speaker 3: that we did the podcast for.
[30:43] Speaker 2: Mm hmm. That was huge. That's a win.
[30:46] Speaker 3: That's a big year to win. I lost last season,
[30:50] Speaker 3: but if I win forty nine and fifty, I think
[30:56] Speaker 3: that I would stake my claim as the greatest player
[31:01] Speaker 3: in the making the Merge survivor draft.
[31:04] Speaker 2: Yeah, because we've basically got years of drafts that don't
[31:08] Speaker 2: count for making the Merge. You know, they were in
[31:11] Speaker 2: the private.
[31:12] Speaker 3: Sector and drafted.
[31:14] Speaker 2: Yeah, undocumented draft picks. And uh now we've got full
[31:20] Speaker 2: records of who's winning and why they're winning.
[31:24] Speaker 3: So it's more intense. Dude. I think this has been
[31:28] Speaker 3: a great episode of The Sanctuary. I do have one
[31:30] Speaker 3: thing we can do and then we could get on
[31:32] Speaker 3: out of here. Okay, I got a voice memo from
[31:37] Speaker 3: a celebrity to talk about the rob has a podcast
[31:40] Speaker 3: situation on America? Is it No, it's Rocky Balboa Sylvester.
[31:48] Speaker 2: Himself type of voice.
[31:51] Speaker 3: Yes, similar, So let me get this voice memo pulled
[31:54] Speaker 3: up because I I texted him. We're good friends.
[31:57] Speaker 2: Okay, cool?
[31:58] Speaker 3: Yeah, I played I played his and Rocky eight. Oh,
[32:03] Speaker 3: I don't know if you saw that one. Did you
[32:05] Speaker 3: catch that one?
[32:06] Speaker 2: Rocky eight? I tried to catch it. But then I
[32:08] Speaker 2: was like, the baby's acting and this is just no good.
[32:12] Speaker 3: Oh, well, which baby? Because it was it was twins.
[32:16] Speaker 2: Oh that's right, the twins. The twins specifically the one,
[32:19] Speaker 2: you know, the one that had that specific looking kind
[32:21] Speaker 2: of smirked a lot, that one out. I don't know.
[32:24] Speaker 2: I just wasn't into it, okay, yea, yeah, well I'm
[32:27] Speaker 2: assuming that wasn't you, right.
[32:29] Speaker 3: No, it was me. It was me, But that's okay,
[32:31] Speaker 3: that's okay. But me and Sly we go back, and
[32:34] Speaker 3: so I texted him. I said, hey, I don't know
[32:35] Speaker 3: if you've been seeing this, Rob has a podcast situation
[32:37] Speaker 3: on American airlines. If you could just I mean, he
[32:40] Speaker 3: texted back.
[32:42] Speaker 2: Yeah.

[33:38] Speaker 7: they didn't want me to start on Rocky. I wrote
[33:40] Speaker 7: Rocky myself for they didn't want me to start on Rocky.
[33:42] Speaker 7: They try to buy it from me, have somebody else
[33:44] Speaker 7: starting it, but I stuck to my guns. They say
[33:46] Speaker 7: this guy doesn't know how to nunciate his words. I'm
[33:48] Speaker 7: sick of hearing about him twice every time I want
[33:50] Speaker 7: to watch a movie, watch a TV show. Hey, yo,
