## Transcript

[0:24] Speaker 1: That is Whispers of Down, the theme song of the
[0:29] Speaker 1: season fifty Mergy Awards brand. What do you think of
[0:32] Speaker 1: Whispers of Don?
[0:34] Speaker 2: I want to say, first of all, I listened to
[0:37] Speaker 2: the uh the Mergy's part one.
[0:40] Speaker 3: I don't know what you guys called the nomination episode
[0:43] Speaker 3: the nomination nominees, and that song was the highlight of
[0:47] Speaker 3: that episode.
[0:48] Speaker 1: I'll say that, WHOA, so you come back from vacation
[0:53] Speaker 1: just to dissas shots fire?
[0:54] Speaker 4: It was.
[0:55] Speaker 2: It was Whispers of Don and then followed by p
[0:59] Speaker 2: Day trying to change the name of the Villain Ward.
[1:03] Speaker 3: Those are the can you can you weigh in on that?
[1:06] Speaker 3: What did you think about the changing of the name
[1:09] Speaker 3: from the Villain Award?
[1:10] Speaker 2: P D.
[1:11] Speaker 4: I love you so much?
[1:13] Speaker 3: Oh, I love you too.
[1:14] Speaker 4: That was one of the dumbest things you've ever brought up.
[1:17] Speaker 1: Because it's it's still mean. It still means the Villain Award.
[1:21] Speaker 3: That's what's so funny about it is we changed the name,
[1:23] Speaker 3: but we kept the definition.
[1:25] Speaker 2: You changed the name because Stephanie, who is most definitely
[1:29] Speaker 2: the villain of the season, but because it happened not
[1:33] Speaker 2: on the actual show itself, you felt the need to
[1:36] Speaker 2: change it to something because that it has to describe it.
[1:40] Speaker 4: It just it didn't make sense.
[1:41] Speaker 1: I think I made a ton of sense, and the
[1:43] Speaker 1: Etsy witches agree with me.
[1:45] Speaker 4: Okay, fair well.
[1:46] Speaker 3: I think Stephanie will weigh in on this in a
[1:47] Speaker 3: little bit, but let's just jump into it. Guys. Last time,
[1:53] Speaker 3: we were nominating the nominees for who you guys would
[1:57] Speaker 3: vote for on Instagram. Huge turnout, everybody voted, and now
[2:04] Speaker 3: we're gonna get to the to the to the results. Wow.
[2:07] Speaker 3: Starting off with ladies and gentlemen, the making the Merge
[2:12] Speaker 3: MVP Award. The nominees were Mike White, SuRie coach, and
[2:18] Speaker 3: Rick Devins. And remember, for everybody listening, this is not
[2:21] Speaker 3: the MVP of the season, it's the MVP of our podcast.
[2:25] Speaker 3: Which player did the most for our show? With six
[2:29] Speaker 3: hundred a drum roll yeah, yeah yeah, Sorie wins with
[2:40] Speaker 3: forty six percent of the votes. We had six hundred
[2:44] Speaker 3: and fifteen responses on this one.
[2:47] Speaker 1: Wow, so over three hundred people voted for Serie.
[2:51] Speaker 4: I think that people got it right.
[2:52] Speaker 3: Yeah. Dan is walking by. Dan called Surrie useless.
[2:55] Speaker 1: If you could get his attention for a second, could
[2:58] Speaker 1: you get him to weigh in on Suria winning MVP
[3:01] Speaker 1: of the podcast.
[3:02] Speaker 4: I don't need it. I don't need it today.
[3:03] Speaker 3: I don't need that nextvity in my life.
[3:06] Speaker 4: But that's one of the reasons why she was the MVP.
[3:08] Speaker 2: Right there is people like Dan and John over there
[3:12] Speaker 2: hating on SuRie, trying to question her, and then throughout
[3:15] Speaker 2: the season falling in love with Suri like everyone does.
[3:18] Speaker 2: Everybody has this journey like oh, what's the big, big
[3:21] Speaker 2: deal about Siri.
[3:22] Speaker 4: And then by the end of it you're like, Okay,
[3:24] Speaker 4: she's the best.
[3:25] Speaker 3: Yeah, she's the best to never win, I would say,
[3:29] Speaker 3: And she's played the most days out of anybody, even
[3:32] Speaker 3: if you take away the Australia days. And that's why
[3:34] Speaker 3: she got a Lifetime Achievement Award from Jeff Funny.
[3:38] Speaker 1: And now presenting me making the Merge Lifetime Achievement Award
[3:41] Speaker 1: the winner.
[3:43] Speaker 2: Wow, do what do you think means more the Survivor
[3:46] Speaker 2: Wan or them making the Merge Lifetime Achievement Award.
[3:49] Speaker 3: The way that they presented the Survivor one made it
[3:52] Speaker 3: feel like less of a big deal than ours.
[3:54] Speaker 2: I would say, he pulled it out from under the fire,
[3:58] Speaker 2: Like where did that trophy come from? I don't know
[4:01] Speaker 2: over there doing magic tricks.
[4:04] Speaker 3: Our next award is the Quote of the Season Award.
[4:09] Speaker 3: Our nominees are We're going to watch Rizzo losing a
[4:12] Speaker 3: fire to Jonathan from Jeff Probes at the live finale,
[4:16] Speaker 3: which he.
[4:17] Speaker 2: Does say p D word for word, word for word
[4:24] Speaker 2: because I went back to write it down.
[4:27] Speaker 1: The next nominee, I'm sorry, I questioned you.
[4:29] Speaker 4: I thank you.
[4:31] Speaker 3: The next nominee is R I Z G O d
[4:35] Speaker 3: Riz God Baby, while crying.
[4:37] Speaker 1: Hold on, you gotta do it.
[4:41] Speaker 4: Anyway, say it like.
[4:42] Speaker 3: That, all right Z. What do you guys do it?
[4:49] Speaker 2: Yeah?
[4:49] Speaker 3: There you go, God Baby.
[4:53] Speaker 4: Good job, bron Thank you.
[4:56] Speaker 2: Uh.
[4:56] Speaker 3: Joe's new address is five hundred Hypocrisy Hill from Serien,
[5:01] Speaker 3: and yesterday's adversary is Today's Enemy from Coach. This one,
[5:07] Speaker 3: guys had an.
[5:09] Speaker 1: Astounding Rizzo saying it while crying.
[5:18] Speaker 3: I love it twice.
[5:19] Speaker 1: Now you've started to do an intro and then you
[5:22] Speaker 1: just completely disregard it so that you can say the
[5:24] Speaker 1: name after the drum roll.
[5:26] Speaker 2: Why I'm calling the gun on drum roll, folks, I apologize.
[5:30] Speaker 3: It's okay. It's a new Riverside set up. Over thirteen
[5:35] Speaker 3: hundred people voted on this one, and Rizzo won with
[5:38] Speaker 3: forty three percent of the votes.
[5:45] Speaker 1: Shout out to Rizzo. He's now won Emergi Award in
[5:48] Speaker 1: two separate seasons, I believe, making him the first to do.
[5:52] Speaker 4: That very good.
[5:53] Speaker 3: It has to be very oppressive. It has to be
[5:55] Speaker 3: because this is the first returning season we've covered, so
[5:58] Speaker 3: it has to be.
[5:58] Speaker 4: Yeah, it has to be. That's a big deal. I
[6:01] Speaker 4: know that's gonna make a lot to him.
[6:04] Speaker 3: One thing that I want to be looking out for
[6:06] Speaker 3: because I purposely have not looked at the results until
[6:09] Speaker 3: right now. One thing that I'm gonna be kind of
[6:11] Speaker 3: looking for is does coach, who was nominated for so
[6:14] Speaker 3: many awards this season, does he even win one? And
[6:17] Speaker 3: that's gonna be fun to see.
[6:19] Speaker 2: I think if he doesn't win one, then that's the
[6:21] Speaker 2: end of coach. We like, he won't be brought back.
[6:24] Speaker 2: The mergys have spoken.
[6:26] Speaker 1: I agree with you one hundred percent. Brain being brought back.
[6:31] Speaker 2: Well maybe that, but also the power that we have, Yeah,
[6:37] Speaker 2: this is the most important. It's like it's like when
[6:39] Speaker 2: you get nominated for like an Oscar and you keep losing.
[6:42] Speaker 2: It's like Timoth Timothy Shallamy eventually is gonna stop getting roles.
[6:47] Speaker 3: Right, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, except except our I would
[6:50] Speaker 3: say that the Mergis is not as prestigious as the Oscars.
[6:53] Speaker 1: It's like a daytime Emmy Award.
[6:55] Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
[6:58] Speaker 1: But I do want to point out there's a lot
[6:59] Speaker 1: of people in the comments who believe that Rizzo should
[7:02] Speaker 1: have won with a different quote, which is we slay
[7:05] Speaker 1: dragons at tribal We don't slay dragons at camp.
[7:09] Speaker 3: Which was another great quote. Totally forgot about that one
[7:11] Speaker 3: in the nomination ceremony.
[7:13] Speaker 2: Peter, do you mind if I ask you about the
[7:16] Speaker 2: shirt hanging on your door.
[7:17] Speaker 1: Oh that's the long sleeve tea that I bought at
[7:21] Speaker 1: the Dangerous Woman tour in Atlanta in twenty seventeen.
[7:23] Speaker 4: Okay, so it's scenarian and grande long sling shirt. Looks great.
[7:27] Speaker 4: Do you wear it ever or is it always hanging?
[7:31] Speaker 1: It's usually hanging because I save it for special occasions.
[7:35] Speaker 4: Okay, but it's always hanging.
[7:38] Speaker 3: Pretty much, Yeah, it is.
[7:39] Speaker 4: It is the shirt that you hang on the back
[7:41] Speaker 4: of your door.
[7:43] Speaker 2: Okay, No for their questions, some people do posters or
[7:48] Speaker 2: I've never seen it before. That's all I'm saying I've
[7:51] Speaker 2: never seen somebody seem different.
[7:53] Speaker 3: There.
[7:54] Speaker 1: There was a rack for a hanger on the door
[7:57] Speaker 1: when I moved in here, and and uh and so
[8:00] Speaker 1: I just keep the Ariano shirt there.
[8:02] Speaker 4: There you go.
[8:03] Speaker 3: I like it, all right, that's a that's a funny
[8:07] Speaker 3: thing to do. Whilch leads us right into our next category,
[8:10] Speaker 3: the Funniest Castaway Award. I thought it was the Dangerous
[8:13] Speaker 3: Woman award. That that we can do. That, we can
[8:17] Speaker 3: make that one because I know who.
[8:18] Speaker 1: I's actually that's a yeah, it's a different it's a
[8:21] Speaker 1: Stephaniela Gross.
[8:22] Speaker 3: I think she would win. Now I would have voted Camilla.
[8:25] Speaker 3: I think Camilla is the most dangerous woman. She's a
[8:27] Speaker 3: great player. She's got a roll over you and put
[8:30] Speaker 3: that in reverse. Yeah. The Funniest Castaway nominees are Coach,
[8:39] Speaker 3: Rick Devins, Emily and Christian. Guys with six hundred and
[8:45] Speaker 3: seventy four responses. Christian with forty of the votes. Hey guys,
[8:54] Speaker 3: great timing on.
[8:55] Speaker 4: That, thank you. Yeah, we're getting it. We're getting it.
[8:59] Speaker 1: I think Christian, I mean Coach, that's who I voted
[9:02] Speaker 1: for in this, But Christian, he definitely deserves the wind here.
[9:06] Speaker 3: Yeah, I voted for Coach as well. I was really
[9:10] Speaker 3: shocked that Coach was not blown away. He is hilarious,
[9:13] Speaker 3: not on purpose.
[9:14] Speaker 1: I guess other people find him more annoying than funny,
[9:18] Speaker 1: but to me, he's so annoying that it's hilarious.
[9:20] Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree. Sorry to compute poop in your pants.
[9:26] Speaker 4: That's true.
[9:27] Speaker 2: We forgot about that monon left. I know that that's
[9:29] Speaker 2: not your thing, Chase. You don't like talking about poop
[9:33] Speaker 2: and whatnot. You don't think that's funny, but some people did.
[9:39] Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know, maybe I just made that up
[9:41] Speaker 3: so that way I didn't have to participate in the conversation.
[9:44] Speaker 4: You know, so you actually do think pop is finne?
[9:48] Speaker 2: No?
[9:49] Speaker 3: Uh, you know some can say that because I had
[9:53] Speaker 3: to leave and refresh, that I was gone too soon,
[9:56] Speaker 3: which brings us into our next category, the Gone Too
[9:59] Speaker 3: Soon Award, which castaway do you think was eliminated way
[10:03] Speaker 3: too early into the season and you would have liked
[10:05] Speaker 3: to see way more. Of The nominees are Q, Mike White, Genevieve,
[10:11] Speaker 3: and Jenna and ste no oh wait with over twelve hundred.
[10:21] Speaker 4: Votes, sow oh, I forgot this is.
[10:30] Speaker 3: Genevieve, But this one was the closest we've come to
[10:35] Speaker 3: a tie yet. Wow. V received forty three percent of
[10:40] Speaker 3: the votes, while Q received forty one percent of the votes,
[10:44] Speaker 3: only a two percent difference. Like the milk.
[10:48] Speaker 4: It, Yeah, this is an interesting one.
[10:51] Speaker 2: I I struggle with it because I in theory, I
[10:56] Speaker 2: agree that she was gone too soon, especially when you
[11:00] Speaker 2: take into consideration the way in which she was kicked
[11:04] Speaker 2: out off the game.
[11:07] Speaker 3: But like.
[11:09] Speaker 2: You know, we didn't really get to I guess this
[11:11] Speaker 2: is kind of the point of the award, but we
[11:12] Speaker 2: didn't really get to see a lot of her, and
[11:14] Speaker 2: what we did see, I was just kind of like
[11:16] Speaker 2: EH on her this season, whereas Q it.
[11:19] Speaker 5: Found two idols brands I understand, but Q's constant entertainment
[11:24] Speaker 5: and Genevieve I felt like, was eh, is that a
[11:30] Speaker 5: hot take?
[11:31] Speaker 1: What about the stare? What about the stare down with Aubrey?
[11:35] Speaker 1: That was really funny?
[11:36] Speaker 3: Yeah?
[11:36] Speaker 4: I sure that was that happened, But I agree with
[11:40] Speaker 4: you brand.
[11:41] Speaker 3: Q is the most entertaining player on the beach, which
[11:43] Speaker 3: is why I voted for him.
[11:45] Speaker 2: No one can argue that Genevieve is the most deserving
[11:49] Speaker 2: based off of the circumstances that got her voted off
[11:52] Speaker 2: of the game.
[11:53] Speaker 4: No one can argue with that.
[11:55] Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, and I think that's what people were
[11:56] Speaker 3: voting based off of. I don't think they were voting
[11:58] Speaker 3: for entertainment value, although that's what I think we were
[12:02] Speaker 3: voting based off of.
[12:03] Speaker 1: Right, Well, what episode did Genevieve get eliminated? Which episode
[12:08] Speaker 1: was the blood Moon? Because Q went in episode three?
[12:11] Speaker 4: Yeah, she made it longer than Q. Yeah, that's a
[12:14] Speaker 4: good point.
[12:15] Speaker 3: So we technically did see Genevieve way more than we
[12:18] Speaker 3: did Q.
[12:19] Speaker 1: We just didn't get to see enough of her, I
[12:21] Speaker 1: guess or everything she tried to do crumbled because she
[12:24] Speaker 1: was aligned with Colby and Kyle and yeah, couldn't use
[12:29] Speaker 1: her idols and it was just a rough go of it.
[12:31] Speaker 3: Yeah, it really was. It really really was.
[12:36] Speaker 2: All the way to She's the eighth person voted out,
[12:39] Speaker 2: compared to Q, who was the third person voted out.
[12:46] Speaker 3: Kid near the third third eight?
[12:48] Speaker 2: Who do we really We barely scratched the surface of Q,
[12:52] Speaker 2: and Q didn't brought more joy to me and uh
[12:56] Speaker 2: three vote outs than Genevieve dead and her.
[13:00] Speaker 4: I'm Tyra, I said.
[13:01] Speaker 3: I think Genevieve deserves the Award. I agree, I agree,
[13:06] Speaker 3: I agree, And you know, Genevieve actually got a lot
[13:08] Speaker 3: of love in our nomination. She's nominated for several awards,
[13:11] Speaker 3: including this next one, the Baby Come Back Award. Which
[13:14] Speaker 3: of the castaways do you do you want to see
[13:17] Speaker 3: return in a future season of Survivor. The nominees are Rizzo, Q, Genevieve,
[13:25] Speaker 3: and Kyle Rizzo. With thirty four percent of the votes
[13:36] Speaker 3: over eight hundred responses, Rizzo is getting some love. I
[13:41] Speaker 3: think I think he had he left his seat this
[13:45] Speaker 3: current season on such an interesting note because it was
[13:48] Speaker 3: the exact same way he was eliminated in the season
[13:52] Speaker 3: right before. Yeah, people want to I mean, here's what
[13:55] Speaker 3: can happen. He comes back for a third season. He
[13:58] Speaker 3: either gets eliminated way or which is like whoa, he
[14:02] Speaker 3: ends up getting eliminated by fire making for a third time,
[14:06] Speaker 3: or he wins the game. All three of those options
[14:09] Speaker 3: are very entertaining. I think that's why people want to
[14:11] Speaker 3: see Rizzo again. I get it.
[14:13] Speaker 2: Listen, you're preciing to the choir here, brother. I I'm excited.
[14:17] Speaker 4: To see him.
[14:17] Speaker 2: There's lots of uh, you know, is he really when
[14:23] Speaker 2: he posted about uh? I can't wait for me and
[14:25] Speaker 2: Liz God to be on Blood and Water? Like does
[14:28] Speaker 2: he know something or is he just joking around?
[14:31] Speaker 3: But he may.
[14:32] Speaker 2: He's a no brainer to bring back, especially if you're
[14:35] Speaker 2: doing like a Blood blo versus Water like him and
[14:38] Speaker 2: Liz God or something like that would be a no brainer.
[14:42] Speaker 4: I love this idea.
[14:44] Speaker 3: Let's talk about this for a second, because well, first
[14:47] Speaker 3: of all, if Rizzo brought it up, like, hey, I
[14:50] Speaker 3: can't wait for me and Liz God to be on
[14:51] Speaker 3: Blover's probably not something that's actually happening because he wouldn't
[14:54] Speaker 3: say you publicly. However, there are there were rumors circulating
[14:59] Speaker 3: the internet right now now that link from retin link
[15:02] Speaker 3: the good Mythical Morning Guys him and his daughter might
[15:06] Speaker 3: be cast on a future season of Survivor. There's a
[15:09] Speaker 3: rumor going around, and that would make Blood Versus Water
[15:12] Speaker 3: seem really really plausible.
[15:15] Speaker 1: I think it's a great idea. Let's bring back theme seasons.
[15:18] Speaker 1: It's the open era, baby, it's all the table.
[15:21] Speaker 2: It is absolutely can I just finished the Blood Versus
[15:27] Speaker 2: Water season with the first one, yes, the one that
[15:32] Speaker 2: comes immediately following or two seasons following the other Blood
[15:35] Speaker 2: versus Water season there in the twenties. Is that also
[15:38] Speaker 2: returneys or is that all new people? That's all new people?
[15:43] Speaker 3: Okay, but also really and honestly kind of a toss
[15:47] Speaker 3: up on which one's better. They're both really good seasons.
[15:49] Speaker 3: If I read those, guy.
[15:50] Speaker 2: That's my next one I'm gonna watch because I loved
[15:52] Speaker 2: Blood versus Water.
[15:53] Speaker 4: I had so much fun with that eason.
[15:54] Speaker 3: Yeah.
[15:55] Speaker 1: Yeah, So shout out to Rizzo, two time Mergi Award
[15:58] Speaker 1: winner for season fifty.
[16:00] Speaker 3: Wow. Wow, I will say Genevieve, it's great. With twenty
[16:13] Speaker 3: eight percent of the votes, Genevieve came in second here.
[16:15] Speaker 3: People want to see Genevieve come back. They we didn't
[16:18] Speaker 3: get enough of her. Apparently we didn't get enough of her.
[16:21] Speaker 3: But do I want her back?
[16:22] Speaker 4: I don't know.
[16:24] Speaker 1: I do want her back just because of the circumstances
[16:27] Speaker 1: around this season, and I thought that she was great
[16:30] Speaker 1: in her first season and she didn't really get a
[16:32] Speaker 1: chance to be great in season fifty. And then another
[16:35] Speaker 1: thing about Rizzo, are recounting it as like a Rizzo
[16:38] Speaker 1: win when he won the Mario like the bit last
[16:42] Speaker 1: year with the Mario sound drops. Yeah, I think that
[16:45] Speaker 1: does count as a win. That would make him a
[16:47] Speaker 1: four time winner. Yeah hard, We're not even all the
[16:50] Speaker 1: way done. It would tie him with Andy, who has
[16:54] Speaker 1: four Margie Award wins, who got he got all of
[16:56] Speaker 1: his in his first season.
[16:58] Speaker 4: Who I also would love to see come back here soon.
[17:01] Speaker 3: Well, his one and only season. Andy his one and
[17:03] Speaker 3: only season, although I exactly Brandon, I would love to
[17:08] Speaker 3: see Andy come back for an All Star season because
[17:10] Speaker 3: I do think by the end of his season he
[17:13] Speaker 3: was an All Star.
[17:14] Speaker 2: Yeah, a fun off a fun off season project, which
[17:17] Speaker 2: might already be on the list, But like, who from
[17:21] Speaker 2: the new era do we want to see return that
[17:22] Speaker 2: hasn't yet? And I think, yeah, let's right, let's write that, dad,
[17:25] Speaker 2: Let's do that. Yeah, and then it'll be fun. But
[17:27] Speaker 2: really quickly, let's run through this. Let's run through the
[17:30] Speaker 2: fifty cast real quick, because we're spaking about Mayby come back.
[17:33] Speaker 4: Do you want to see this person play again? Okay?
[17:36] Speaker 3: Okay?

[18:41] Speaker 2: No.
[18:44] Speaker 4: I was like, who's Benjamin When I got to his name.
[18:49] Speaker 3: Christian Yes, every part of me wants to say yes.
[18:55] Speaker 3: I don't know what else he he has to do
[18:58] Speaker 3: on survivor other than when I'm gonna say.
[19:00] Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, Christian is one. I love him, and I
[19:05] Speaker 2: kind of would be okay not seeing him play.
[19:07] Speaker 3: Yeah.
[19:10] Speaker 1: Stephanie ye, no, okay, investigation pending.
[19:18] Speaker 3: The investigations back open.
[19:20] Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we'll get to it, okay.
[19:22] Speaker 3: Uh Emily no, yes, Ozzie yes, yeah, I gotta I
[19:30] Speaker 3: gotta see him one more time.
[19:32] Speaker 4: And crazy you guys are crazy?
[19:34] Speaker 2: Uh MOPy dingus he he did that?
[19:38] Speaker 4: The ship is sailed?
[19:39] Speaker 2: Uh Devns yes, yes, Siree no, no, Tiff yes yes,
[19:48] Speaker 2: Rizzo yes, yes, Joe no, Jonathan no wait yes yes?
[19:58] Speaker 3: And and can I go back for a secon? I
[20:00] Speaker 3: would be fine with Joe coming back if they do
[20:03] Speaker 3: Heroes Versus Villains and he's on the villains, did you say, Joe.
[20:07] Speaker 1: Yeah, they're not. See this gets back to me. I
[20:12] Speaker 1: had to change the name of the award, which brand
[20:15] Speaker 1: thought was silly. You can't do heroes versus Villains.
[20:17] Speaker 3: You could do.
[20:18] Speaker 1: Heroes versus Controversial Kings.
[20:23] Speaker 2: Yeah, because you're making a bad point, PD, This is
[20:27] Speaker 2: this was part of what I was getting frustrated by.
[20:28] Speaker 2: And thank you for bringing this up. When you go
[20:31] Speaker 2: back to Heroes Versus Villains the season when they go
[20:35] Speaker 2: to the villains tribe, do you know how many of
[20:38] Speaker 2: them were mad that they were on the villain tribe?
[20:43] Speaker 3: Most of them, like Coach was on the villain side
[20:46] Speaker 3: and couldn't understand why. Yeah, that's like parv is on
[20:51] Speaker 3: the villain.
[20:51] Speaker 2: Like these people, these these legends of the game that
[20:56] Speaker 2: we would probably be like, is that a villain? I
[20:58] Speaker 2: don't know about that, but it's just it was. It
[21:02] Speaker 2: was a bad take by UPD.
[21:06] Speaker 3: All right, whatever you say.
[21:07] Speaker 1: I I always see people saying bring back villains, so
[21:09] Speaker 1: apparently they don't exist.
[21:11] Speaker 4: I know that's not what I'm saying. I'm just saying
[21:15] Speaker 4: it's it's more complicated than that.
[21:18] Speaker 3: It's nuanced.
[21:19] Speaker 2: It's nuanced what you see as a villain and what
[21:23] Speaker 2: production might see as a villain might be beloved. Savannah
[21:28] Speaker 2: won the Villain Award last year. If you recall, we
[21:31] Speaker 2: all agree that she's not a villain. I nominated her
[21:35] Speaker 2: because I knew that a large part of the online
[21:38] Speaker 2: community saw her as a villain.
[21:42] Speaker 3: You were playing into the misogyny one under brother, I'm
[21:46] Speaker 3: here to win. I think what Brand is saying is
[21:49] Speaker 3: like the villain Award really just goes against who is
[21:52] Speaker 3: being rooted against by a majority of the audience.
[21:57] Speaker 4: Boston Rob villain.
[21:59] Speaker 3: Yeah. And it's also like the original heroes versus villains
[22:03] Speaker 3: what they say, even when they say who is a
[22:05] Speaker 3: hero and who's a villain, it's who plays in a
[22:08] Speaker 3: kind of like backstabby way versus people who play in
[22:12] Speaker 3: a more honorable way. Right. But the thing about our
[22:15] Speaker 3: current Honorable, Honor and an Integrity Alliance players is they're
[22:20] Speaker 3: not actually being honorable. They're being hypocritical by saying that
[22:24] Speaker 3: they are honorable but then playing in a kind of
[22:27] Speaker 3: backstabby way. I got it the Hypocrite Award. There you
[22:30] Speaker 3: go that honestly works pretty well.
[22:33] Speaker 2: Jerry, Jerry was on the Villain Drive. Do you remember
[22:35] Speaker 2: how sad she was that she was on the villain Drive?
[22:37] Speaker 2: She like, yeah, what was her crime? Liking Colby too much?
[22:41] Speaker 2: That's what That's what made Colby was on the Heroes.
[22:46] Speaker 1: Her crime was when she told the live audience that
[22:48] Speaker 1: Survivor players are real people and then it got booed
[22:51] Speaker 1: for it and then left.
[22:52] Speaker 3: Yeah, she left. She's the og messiah victim of Survivor.
[23:02] Speaker 4: Well, not another fun thing Maybeah.
[23:06] Speaker 2: This is a list too, names that were rumored for
[23:09] Speaker 2: fifty that didn't get picked for fifty that we would
[23:12] Speaker 2: still like to see because Jerry's one of those people.
[23:14] Speaker 2: If you remember Jerry's video that she posted after of
[23:18] Speaker 2: her just sitting there staring at the camera with her
[23:20] Speaker 2: cowboy hat, sad because she didn't get picked for fifty,
[23:24] Speaker 2: that that might be fun to do.
[23:25] Speaker 3: Like the people like, do we really want to see Sight?
[23:28] Speaker 3: Do we really want to see Rupert play again? No? No,
[23:33] Speaker 3: I don't want to see Rupert again. But by the
[23:36] Speaker 3: time third time playing, it was pretty clear he was.
[23:40] Speaker 2: He was to tell you to tell you and plug
[23:44] Speaker 2: yours peety, to tell you where I stand with Rupert
[23:46] Speaker 2: right now. When Rupert volunteered his tribute so that his
[23:52] Speaker 2: wife could stay in the game longer and he would
[23:54] Speaker 2: have to go to Redemption Island, I was relieved.
[23:57] Speaker 4: I was like, oh good, like, oh good, all.
[24:02] Speaker 3: Right, anyway, let's move on.
[24:06] Speaker 4: Sorry, yes, the week and I'm ready to chat.
[24:08] Speaker 3: Hey heck yeah, man, that's what makes good TV. Our
[24:12] Speaker 3: next cat to bring take again.
[24:19] Speaker 1: The Big Mistake Award, which move was.
[24:22] Speaker 3: The worst move of the season, the biggest mistake made
[24:25] Speaker 3: this season? The nominees are Ozzie telling Aubrey everything and
[24:30] Speaker 3: getting himself voted out, Ozzie not playing his idol. Both
[24:36] Speaker 3: of those mistakes happened in the same evening, by the way,
[24:40] Speaker 3: Dark Charlie targeting Rizzo and Christian choosing to go on
[24:46] Speaker 3: the journey. Ozzie not playing his idol, of course, with
[24:58] Speaker 3: fifty percent of the vote.
[25:00] Speaker 1: Yeah, man, I should have just played my idol.
[25:04] Speaker 3: Dude, I don't know.
[25:07] Speaker 4: That's tough. It's still uh is shocking.
[25:10] Speaker 1: So it's nice to be nominated for this award, I
[25:13] Speaker 1: guess so. At least I got that instead of a
[25:15] Speaker 1: fucking T shirt that Joe were on custom ink.
[25:18] Speaker 3: How how I want.
[25:21] Speaker 2: I wish that there I maybe there is a post
[25:25] Speaker 2: finale Red Carpet interview with Ozzie where he talks about
[25:28] Speaker 2: the shirt. There's no way that he's pumped about that shirt, right,
[25:31] Speaker 2: Like that was such a dick move.
[25:34] Speaker 3: If it looks like it faded after to washes, oh yeah,
[25:40] Speaker 3: and it'll be shrunk.
[25:42] Speaker 2: You get the trophy, you get mister B's coin. Here's
[25:48] Speaker 2: a T shirt to remember the worst moment of your
[25:51] Speaker 2: life by.
[25:53] Speaker 3: And then Stephanie didn't even get anything. They just had
[25:55] Speaker 3: her standing beside Ozzie.
[25:56] Speaker 4: Yeah.
[25:57] Speaker 3: Well, but something tells me she's about to get something. Guys.
[26:02] Speaker 3: Our next category is the Game Changer Award. This one
[26:06] Speaker 3: was a big one, this one. We got a lot
[26:08] Speaker 3: of votes for this one.
[26:09] Speaker 1: Are you Threateningie, she's about to get something?
[26:14] Speaker 3: To get something, I mean, she's about to win an
[26:16] Speaker 3: award from US.
[26:18] Speaker 1: Okay, it's not about docs do something.
[26:22] Speaker 3: Yeah, hear house. No, I just meant she was about
[26:24] Speaker 3: to win an award, get something.
[26:27] Speaker 1: Look out, stephan You're about to get it.
[26:34] Speaker 3: Oh man. But almost sixteen hundred people voted on this
[26:38] Speaker 3: next category, the Game Changer Award. This is the move
[26:45] Speaker 3: that changed the game the most this season. The nominees
[26:49] Speaker 3: are Aubrey buying some motion off of Etsy and practicing
[26:53] Speaker 3: at home, Tiffany winning immunity on the night that she
[26:58] Speaker 3: was going to be going home.
[27:00] Speaker 2: I love PD's comment on this one that was winning
[27:04] Speaker 2: a challenge.
[27:05] Speaker 4: It's not.
[27:08] Speaker 3: Yeah. I didn't respond to that because, uh.
[27:13] Speaker 1: Wait, you forgot about my hashtag?
[27:15] Speaker 4: What was yours?
[27:15] Speaker 3: Yeah? Hashtag? Take that. Chase Rick flipping the coin for
[27:23] Speaker 3: the two million dollars and series extra vote play with
[27:30] Speaker 3: an extra nominee of Rick's fake idol play whoo rix
[27:42] Speaker 3: two million dollar coin flip forty eight of the votes.
[27:48] Speaker 3: That's crazy. It's over six hundred people that voted for that.
[27:52] Speaker 3: I mean, I think it's a no.
[27:54] Speaker 2: Like it's literally the only nominee that actually changed the
[28:00] Speaker 2: game going for one million, Like that's a actual game changer,
[28:05] Speaker 2: Like everything else had perhaps ramifications or had an effect,
[28:11] Speaker 2: but a real change.
[28:13] Speaker 3: In second place was Serie playing her extra vote, which
[28:17] Speaker 3: if it if Sire would have gone on to win
[28:20] Speaker 3: the game or even make it to the final three.
[28:22] Speaker 3: I think could have won here because that would have
[28:24] Speaker 3: been a big game changer. But she went home the
[28:26] Speaker 3: next week, so it doesn't make it feel as big
[28:28] Speaker 3: of a move right.
[28:30] Speaker 1: And I think Devans might have won if the fifth
[28:34] Speaker 1: one was in that.
[28:35] Speaker 3: Poll, the fake. A lot of people commented brilliant, Yeah,
[28:39] Speaker 3: I agree, I agreed. A ton of people commented fake
[28:42] Speaker 3: idol to vote for it, but Instagram only allows up
[28:45] Speaker 3: to four, and so I did the four that were
[28:47] Speaker 3: the first four nominated during the nomination episode.
[28:52] Speaker 1: Now let's get to La Grossa not quite Next up
[28:57] Speaker 1: is the Making the Merge Running Bit Award. What was
[29:01] Speaker 1: your favorite running bit of our season? The nominees were
[29:05] Speaker 1: Undisclosed Woman. I think we're gonna work together.
[29:10] Speaker 3: Jacking it for fifty and it's nothing to get upset about.
[29:21] Speaker 4: Yeah, hold on, I scrolled up too far.
[29:30] Speaker 3: Jacking it for fifty, Jonathan faking his cat's death, having
[29:35] Speaker 3: Johnny fair Play reveal it to us live on the show.
[29:39] Speaker 3: It was those guys. Thirty five percent of the votes.
[29:44] Speaker 3: Undisclosed Woman was right there behind it, which I voted for.
[29:49] Speaker 4: In a sense though because of.
[29:51] Speaker 3: This jacking it for fifty.
[29:53] Speaker 4: But it's a win. It's a one either way for
[29:55] Speaker 4: the Undisclosed Woman.
[29:57] Speaker 2: But you know what, I'm not actually gonna give it
[29:58] Speaker 2: to Jonathan I I think you could make the arguments
[30:03] Speaker 2: because of the way that it was written in the voting,
[30:07] Speaker 2: which is just jacking it for fifty.
[30:09] Speaker 3: That this sound drop jacking it for fifty by.
[30:13] Speaker 2: The undisclosed woman is the bit that they're talking about.
[30:16] Speaker 2: So really, undisclosed woman one.
[30:19] Speaker 3: You know what I'm.
[30:22] Speaker 1: Yeah, undisclosed woman one bit of the year. Take that, Jonathan.
[30:26] Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm fine with taking this away from Jonathan. That's fun.
[30:29] Speaker 4: Yeah. Speaking of.
[30:35] Speaker 1: Yeah, give it up to taking an award away from Jonathan.
[30:39] Speaker 2: This is the sound of us taking the award away.
[30:42] Speaker 2: That's not a good sound effect. It said, transition to
[30:46] Speaker 2: and it was a little poof icon. I thought it
[30:48] Speaker 2: would be better than that, speaking of a.
[30:53] Speaker 3: Speaking of awards that Jonathan has the ability to win.
[30:57] Speaker 3: Next up is the making the.
[30:59] Speaker 1: Merge Saw of the Season award.
[31:02] Speaker 3: We have a song from Brand nominated, a song from
[31:05] Speaker 3: Jonathan nominated in a song Well no, I think just
[31:08] Speaker 3: those two p D did one of you? Oh no,
[31:10] Speaker 3: PD's song was also nominated. Uh and the results.
[31:14] Speaker 4: Are oh damn it every time.
[31:24] Speaker 3: Mike's way with forty six percent of the votes. That
[31:28] Speaker 3: was an incredible one from Jonathan. So I'm okay with him.
[31:31] Speaker 1: Take Yeah, it was a great song. But if you
[31:33] Speaker 1: think about it, that one really belongs to Undisclosed Woman too.
[31:36] Speaker 3: So if we could take.
[31:37] Speaker 1: That award away from Jonathan, how do you give it
[31:39] Speaker 1: an Undisclosed woman?
[31:40] Speaker 3: How does the logic work on that one? Brand? You agree?
[31:43] Speaker 5: Right, hey, Jonathan, great contribution.
[31:47] Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, that works with me if we just yeah,
[31:49] Speaker 1: and how about this, hey, Jonathan, here's a making the
[31:52] Speaker 1: merged Lifetime Achieapent Award. Just kidding, we're taking it away.
[31:57] Speaker 1: It says three awards taken away from Jonathan. We're all
[32:00] Speaker 1: fired at uh brand. You were the one that did
[32:03] Speaker 1: the Jenna parody. The three Dog Night one is the
[32:06] Speaker 1: loneliest number. Yeah, that's what I voted for. That one
[32:10] Speaker 1: was my favorite.
[32:12] Speaker 3: Did that get last place?
[32:15] Speaker 2: Uh?
[32:15] Speaker 1: Yeah? Sadly it got two of.
[32:18] Speaker 4: The votes, It got two percent, and you were one
[32:21] Speaker 4: of them.
[32:22] Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, good.
[32:24] Speaker 1: It might have just been chased voting for it.
[32:26] Speaker 3: Well, because so two hundred and sixty people voted on
[32:30] Speaker 3: this one. What about the Serene song? That one got
[32:34] Speaker 3: thirty three percent? That was second place? Okay, all right,
[32:37] Speaker 3: I'll take that. PD was in third with nineteen percent.
[32:41] Speaker 3: I voted for j Yeah. I think great songs all around,
[32:48] Speaker 3: but Jonathan is just a master at making these songs.
[32:54] Speaker 4: I had a drive.
[32:55] Speaker 2: I had a driver ones in New York when I
[32:58] Speaker 2: was out there for the event, and uh, we asked
[33:00] Speaker 2: him who like famous people that he's driven around, and
[33:05] Speaker 2: one of them was Frank Sinatra and on he said,
[33:08] Speaker 2: Frank Sinatra was great, and he was telling Frank about
[33:15] Speaker 2: how he and his wife just moved into a new
[33:18] Speaker 2: place because they had a baby on the way. And
[33:21] Speaker 2: after dropping Frank off, he goes home and then later
[33:28] Speaker 2: on that night a mattress got delivered from WOA. Was
[33:34] Speaker 2: like as a housewoman gift.
[33:37] Speaker 3: It was very cool about that story too, is you
[33:39] Speaker 3: know Frank Sinatra was the best person that he drove around.
[33:42] Speaker 3: When you asked him who was the most nightmare person
[33:46] Speaker 3: that he drove around, he said Stephanie Lagrossa, which leads
[33:50] Speaker 3: us into was actually that makes sense. The Adversary Award,
[33:57] Speaker 3: which formerly called the Villain Choice.
[34:00] Speaker 1: It's pronounced the Grosso, which is easy to remember because
[34:03] Speaker 1: she's gross.
[34:04] Speaker 3: Oh well, that's just unnecessary, Todd. That was unnecessary. I mean,
[34:09] Speaker 3: I mean, what's what's in her heart?
[34:11] Speaker 2: You know?
[34:13] Speaker 3: Just kidding.
[34:13] Speaker 1: Investigations still pending. Let's get into it, guys.
[34:18] Speaker 3: The nominees for the Adversary Award formerly known as the
[34:22] Speaker 3: Villain Award, Uh, Steph, Joe, Coach, and Chrissy.
[34:33] Speaker 4: Oh sh I'm so sorry.
[34:40] Speaker 3: Coach wins it by the skin of his teeth brother
[34:46] Speaker 3: thirty of the votes, thirty five went to Steph. Wow,
[34:50] Speaker 3: it was really really close, but we had someone one
[34:54] Speaker 3: of the nominees kind of took a little They did
[34:59] Speaker 3: not like this award or the nomineague.
[35:02] Speaker 1: I think they handled it with honor and integrity.
[35:05] Speaker 3: Pete, would you like to read the comment that we received? Sure,
[35:10] Speaker 3: I would love to read it.
[35:11] Speaker 1: This comes from former Journey Well I guess once a journey,
[35:15] Speaker 1: always a journey, Stephanie le Grossa, and she commented on
[35:20] Speaker 1: the Adversary Award formerly the Villain Award. She commented, Lol,
[35:25] Speaker 1: why has it got to be the ones with honor
[35:27] Speaker 1: and integrity?
[35:27] Speaker 2: Lol?
[35:28] Speaker 1: It's an honor all caps. I'll take it, signed the
[35:32] Speaker 1: og badass kissy face emoji.
[35:36] Speaker 3: What's so funny about this is I would say we
[35:38] Speaker 3: were way nicer to her than most people online this season.
[35:45] Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I supported her more than anybody for.
[35:48] Speaker 3: Like eleven weeks. It's just one of those things, man,
[35:53] Speaker 3: where I think she's obviously never listened to our show.
[35:58] Speaker 3: She just saw on Instagram. Po Yeah, I don't know
[36:01] Speaker 3: why she felt the need to comment. It's not like
[36:03] Speaker 3: we tagged her in it or anything. I don't understand,
[36:06] Speaker 3: like what.
[36:07] Speaker 1: We nominated her for an award. I think she has
[36:10] Speaker 1: the right to comment if she wants.
[36:12] Speaker 2: I'm not saying shout out to John who replied to
[36:15] Speaker 2: her comment this saying happy, Yeah, that made me laugh.
[36:19] Speaker 3: And see that.
[36:20] Speaker 1: I mean, you might think that's a dunk, but she
[36:22] Speaker 1: said I love gay people, So she did.
[36:25] Speaker 3: She she said that.
[36:27] Speaker 1: And so she's very supportive of Pride Month.
[36:29] Speaker 4: Okay, whatever, guys.
[36:31] Speaker 3: What I was saying was why she I don't know
[36:34] Speaker 3: why she felt the need to comment here.
[36:36] Speaker 1: I don't know what she I'm glad she did. It's hilarious.
[36:40] Speaker 3: But I don't know what you missed.
[36:42] Speaker 1: If you're listening, you're inviting her on the show. There
[36:47] Speaker 1: was somebody in our comments you said you shouldn't platform
[36:50] Speaker 1: her by nominating her for this award.
[36:53] Speaker 2: Come on, listen, we you can't, uh, you can't talk
[36:58] Speaker 2: about somebody on a podcast and not.
[37:02] Speaker 4: Be willing to let them come on and defend and
[37:04] Speaker 4: speak their.
[37:04] Speaker 1: Minds, and would love for them.
[37:06] Speaker 2: I would love maybe not speak her mind I shouldn't
[37:09] Speaker 2: have said it that way, but maybe Defender game. I
[37:12] Speaker 2: would like to hear her Defender game on fifty.
[37:17] Speaker 1: Because we don't have we would we would have to
[37:19] Speaker 1: bring up the stuff.
[37:21] Speaker 3: Well, yeah, I think we would have a blast if
[37:24] Speaker 3: she came on the show. Don't get me wrong.
[37:26] Speaker 2: Well, she comes, she comes on the show, and then
[37:29] Speaker 2: one of us goes, thank you so much, sorry, thank
[37:31] Speaker 2: you so much.
[37:34] Speaker 4: But while we're talking about it, yeah, something like.
[37:38] Speaker 3: That, just like let it, let it come up.
[37:40] Speaker 4: Naturally.
[37:42] Speaker 3: She's never covered on the show. She's never listened to
[37:44] Speaker 3: the show, which is why it's so weird to me
[37:46] Speaker 3: that she commented we're nobody a.
[37:49] Speaker 1: Post with her face on it and the faces of
[37:52] Speaker 1: some people who think she I mean, who she thinks
[37:55] Speaker 1: are filled with honor and integrity, and felt the need
[37:58] Speaker 1: to stick up for them. So, you know, good for
[38:01] Speaker 1: you stuff. But I'm glad Coach won at least one award.
[38:04] Speaker 1: I was worried that Coach wasn't gonna win a single thing,
[38:07] Speaker 1: and I thought that wouldn't be fitting at all since
[38:09] Speaker 1: we like dedicated the edit to him for the first
[38:12] Speaker 1: six weeks.
[38:13] Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean he was one of my favorite parts
[38:15] Speaker 3: of the season this season.
[38:17] Speaker 1: Yeah, it was really the Coach Christian and Ozzie show
[38:20] Speaker 1: for the for a long time.
[38:22] Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, guys, that is the awards. That's one. Yeah,
[38:27] Speaker 3: that's it.
[38:28] Speaker 1: We want to So when are we gonna invite Stephanie
[38:31] Speaker 1: on here?
[38:34] Speaker 4: Guys? Yeah, she listens to this.
[38:37] Speaker 3: Wouldn't it be hilarious if we were her favorite Survivor
[38:40] Speaker 3: podcast and that's why it was so heartbreaking for her
[38:43] Speaker 3: when she got nominated.
[38:45] Speaker 2: Maybe I do also, guys, next next year, if there
[38:49] Speaker 2: is another live reunion, a live final tribal. If there is, though,
[38:55] Speaker 2: I will I'm going to because I'm assuming none of
[38:58] Speaker 2: you guys requested through the proper channels to be in.
[39:02] Speaker 3: How we roll.
[39:03] Speaker 2: That's not how so like you have to for the
[39:07] Speaker 2: most like in this, in this like you got to
[39:09] Speaker 2: you got to reach out and that like I'll do
[39:12] Speaker 2: it and then if.
[39:14] Speaker 4: They say no, then we can ship on CBS.
[39:18] Speaker 1: Oh okay, yeah, I mean go for it. Brand you'd
[39:20] Speaker 1: be the reach out guy because in Chase that's.
[39:24] Speaker 4: Not how we roll. You want people to come to you.
[39:27] Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I don't brand.
[39:30] Speaker 3: I don't know if you know this. We're kind of
[39:32] Speaker 3: big deals me.
[39:32] Speaker 2: And it's like when you like when you call your
[39:38] Speaker 2: mom and your mom goes, oh, you haven't called in
[39:40] Speaker 2: a while. I haven't talked to you, and it's like, well, mom,
[39:43] Speaker 2: phone works both ways, and and CBS is mom.
[39:48] Speaker 1: Yeah, because my mom loves Trump.
[39:59] Speaker 3: Brand you as the next you can do that for us.
[40:01] Speaker 3: So that way we still don't have to feel like
[40:03] Speaker 3: we are asking for anything.
[40:06] Speaker 2: Absolutely, And I told you guys this, but we were.
[40:09] Speaker 2: I was too late to the game to get on
[40:13] Speaker 2: the exit press circuit.
[40:15] Speaker 4: But I will. I'll get on top of that as well.
[40:18] Speaker 2: That way, when we just get them, we can complain
[40:21] Speaker 2: and have a reason to complain.
[40:22] Speaker 1: How about I like that. Here's what's gonna happen, though.
[40:25] Speaker 3: We're gonna work ourselves into a shoot and we're gonna
[40:27] Speaker 3: get exit press and we're gonna have to figure out
[40:30] Speaker 3: what to do about that.
[40:31] Speaker 4: It'll be fun. Yeah.
[40:34] Speaker 3: I cannot wait if we get exit press. I cannot
[40:37] Speaker 3: wait for someone that works for CBS to be in
[40:40] Speaker 3: our recording and listen to the nonsense that we ask
[40:44] Speaker 3: to ask the player. It's gonna sound like this, we
[40:47] Speaker 3: wanted to ask this, No, you can't ask that. Okay,
[40:50] Speaker 3: we wanted to bring up this, No, you can't bring
[40:52] Speaker 3: that up. And then I think what it'll end up
[40:54] Speaker 3: with is we should maybe bring a guitar every time,
[40:57] Speaker 3: and it'll just end with us kind of doing a
[40:59] Speaker 3: little improv song.
[41:01] Speaker 4: That's actually not a bad idea, that's a good.
[41:02] Speaker 3: For the entire That should be our backup plan every time. Yeah,
[41:05] Speaker 3: I will always have a guitar on set, and I'll always.
[41:08] Speaker 1: Get the player to come and we don't really talk
[41:10] Speaker 1: to them. Everything we ask gets shot down by CBS,
[41:13] Speaker 1: and then we sing a song that sounds like.
[41:15] Speaker 3: I think it's time. That's not like the most making
[41:17] Speaker 3: the merge way to do exit press everage.
[41:19] Speaker 2: Yeah, I think what most likely happens in those situations
[41:23] Speaker 2: is not that you, it's that somebody from CBS is
[41:27] Speaker 2: on the call with you, and then when you bring
[41:29] Speaker 2: up something they don't like, they go, Okay, we got
[41:31] Speaker 2: a wrap, We're done.
[41:33] Speaker 3: It would be the first question.
[41:34] Speaker 1: Yeah, so we'll have like the first thirty second exitent.
[41:37] Speaker 2: We should we got the first one good, guys. That's
[41:40] Speaker 2: all I'm said.
[41:41] Speaker 3: That's that's our gimmick, is our exit press only last
[41:44] Speaker 3: forty five s.
[41:47] Speaker 1: We we figure out the most unhinged.
[41:50] Speaker 3: Question possible, so that way we always get one question
[41:53] Speaker 3: before it gets shut down.
[41:55] Speaker 2: Yeah, Rob was randomly like he typically they get like
[41:58] Speaker 2: fifteen minutes with each outlet, but Rob was randomly getting
[42:01] Speaker 2: cut down to like ten.
[42:03] Speaker 3: On certain weeks, people are like, what's up with that?
[42:05] Speaker 2: We're gonna have forty five seconds and people are gonna be.
[42:11] Speaker 3: Another thing that we have to take into account is
[42:14] Speaker 3: several times now we have done quote unquote interviews with
[42:18] Speaker 3: players that are not actually them. People are gonna think
[42:22] Speaker 3: we're just doing impressions of players.
[42:25] Speaker 1: And that's fine. People don't think it's real. That's less pressure. Actually,
[42:28] Speaker 1: that's not true what you're talking about. Chase, Mike came
[42:31] Speaker 1: on the show.
[42:33] Speaker 3: That's right. Mike White definitely came on the show, and
[42:34] Speaker 3: so did Riley from Big Brother last season.
[42:39] Speaker 4: Classic.
[42:40] Speaker 1: Hey, guys, I have a proposal.
[42:43] Speaker 3: Let's hear it.
[42:45] Speaker 1: Well, last time I had a proposal on this show.
[42:47] Speaker 1: The villain Brand, Yeah, Brand comes back from vacation a pet.
[42:51] Speaker 1: You're fucking idiot, and why do you have Ariana Grande
[42:53] Speaker 1: in your door?
[42:54] Speaker 3: Oh? No, valid points.
[42:57] Speaker 2: The first part is true that I wasn't question saying
[43:01] Speaker 2: the i't think it was weird that you had it on.
[43:04] Speaker 4: I've just never seen it, That's all I was.
[43:06] Speaker 2: I've never seen somebody hanging a shirt as as an
[43:10] Speaker 2: artwork on the back of their door. I've never seen that,
[43:11] Speaker 2: so that I was wondering if that's what it was,
[43:13] Speaker 2: or if you if you wear it, if that's like
[43:15] Speaker 2: tomorrow's outfit. You know, sometimes you lay out your clothes
[43:18] Speaker 2: for the next day. I don't know if you're like
[43:19] Speaker 2: in ahead of it.
[43:21] Speaker 1: Okay, well here's my proposal.
[43:22] Speaker 4: Okay, go ahead.
[43:25] Speaker 1: My proposal is that instead of going into the off season,
[43:29] Speaker 1: we call it the open season, because anything is on
[43:32] Speaker 1: the table for them making the Merge podcast.
[43:36] Speaker 3: I like that.
[43:37] Speaker 4: That's really good. We call it the open season. That's good.
[43:40] Speaker 4: Like it. Do we want to talk a little about
[43:43] Speaker 4: what we're gonna be doing on the open season.
[43:44] Speaker 3: I'm just glad. I'm one for two on proposals.
[43:46] Speaker 4: We will be you will hear from us.
[43:49] Speaker 2: We're also maybe maybe even launching another project.
[43:55] Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, we've brought that up. On here before. Very
[43:58] Speaker 3: excited to Uh, I believe maybe either next week or
[44:04] Speaker 3: the week after we.
[44:04] Speaker 1: Will beat show.
[44:08] Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's the off season, right yeah, sorry,
[44:11] Speaker 3: try again. Oh, it's the open season.
[44:15] Speaker 4: Yeah.
[44:16] Speaker 3: Anything?
[44:18] Speaker 1: Uh, yeah, I'm on the table, you're on the table.
[44:20] Speaker 1: We're all on the table. Hey, hey, what are we
[44:22] Speaker 1: doing on the table?
[44:23] Speaker 3: Brother? Ay? Anything, because anything can happen. Uh. Very excited
[44:32] Speaker 3: for that project. I guess we can say what it is.
[44:36] Speaker 3: You guys think if it's a week or two away. Yeah,
[44:40] Speaker 3: we're going to be doing.
[44:41] Speaker 4: Robably two weeks away. It should probably be two. We
[44:44] Speaker 4: should give ourselves a buffer there.
[44:46] Speaker 3: Yeah, good point. Yeah, two weeks from now. We're gonna
[44:51] Speaker 3: be doing a rewatch podcast for the show Twin Peaks.
[44:56] Speaker 3: But the gimmick is I've seen it and brand and
[45:00] Speaker 3: have not. They're going to try to solve the mystery
[45:03] Speaker 3: in the show Twin Peaks as we go through episode
[45:06] Speaker 3: by episode.
[45:07] Speaker 4: And I'll just say this.
[45:08] Speaker 2: Maybe I should save this joke for the pod, but
[45:10] Speaker 2: I swear to you, Chase, if this ends up being
[45:13] Speaker 2: a gd Scooby Doo episode mm hmm, I will not
[45:18] Speaker 2: forgive you and I will not be your friend.
[45:20] Speaker 4: Anymore.
[45:21] Speaker 3: Do you think that I would get you guys to
[45:23] Speaker 3: sign on for like a fifteen week podcast and then
[45:28] Speaker 3: at the end I reveal that all of it was fake? Yes, yes, yeah,
[45:34] Speaker 3: it does sound like something I would do. But here's
[45:36] Speaker 3: the thing. You have to watch the episodes, that's right, Yeah,
[45:38] Speaker 3: you have to actually watch the show.
[45:40] Speaker 4: But what if you send us a link and it's not.
[45:46] Speaker 1: Yeah, so subscribe to Chase's YouTube channel if you want
[45:49] Speaker 1: to see that, and if you want to see me
[45:51] Speaker 1: and Chase and Prairie Dresses coming up soon?

[46:12] Speaker 3: be Survivor straight up, straight up. I really want to
