## Transcript

[0:01] Speaker 1: It's a travesty, the quiet the dragon slayer flair, because
[0:06] Speaker 1: there is only one dragon Slayer in the history of
[0:08] Speaker 1: Survivor and there will never be another one.
[0:11] Speaker 2: This is making the merge.
[0:14] Speaker 3: We can winness.
[0:16] Speaker 2: I'm a dog person hours, I'm making.
[0:18] Speaker 3: The dogs isamh. I'm coming over and over, you know, crack.
[0:29] Speaker 2: Survisor not. It's not a million dollars. All I want
[0:39] Speaker 2: to do is win million.
[0:40] Speaker 4: Hearts, heart's Heart's hearts, Heart's hearts, Hearts Hearts.
[0:45] Speaker 2: Welcome to making the merge. My name is p d
[0:48] Speaker 2: A k A the What did Jonathan call me? The
[0:51] Speaker 2: night Walker? The night Walker? Yeah, aka Season fifty party girl.
[0:56] Speaker 2: I've got Serree Aubrey, Stephanie Devns and Andre the Giant Crazy, ridiculous, ridiculous.
[1:03] Speaker 1: I'm brand I'm I lost a player this week, so
[1:07] Speaker 1: I I only have Tiff, Joe.
[1:10] Speaker 2: And Emily Crime me a River.
[1:15] Speaker 4: I'm Jonathan, and I have Risk God and I have Ozzy.
[1:21] Speaker 4: I only keep my players that have z's in their names.
[1:24] Speaker 5: Sure, I am Chased the Lake Cracker, and I have Christian.
[1:32] Speaker 2: Dude straight up stopped looking like an idiot on the internet.
[1:35] Speaker 4: But I got the fact that your last player is Christian.
[1:41] Speaker 4: It is better than like how I felt when I
[1:43] Speaker 4: had Sage.
[1:45] Speaker 2: That's fair.
[1:46] Speaker 5: Hey, I don't think it's crazy to come out and
[1:48] Speaker 5: say Christian is a better player than Sage.
[1:52] Speaker 3: Yeah.
[1:53] Speaker 2: Yeah, Hey.
[1:53] Speaker 5: Last night, me and PD we were we were chatting
[1:56] Speaker 5: it up in the middle of the night and we
[1:57] Speaker 5: were talking some strategy, which is not what we're known for,
[2:01] Speaker 5: but we think that we've figured out who's gonna win
[2:03] Speaker 5: this season. Would you guys like to hear who we
[2:06] Speaker 5: think is the options to win.
[2:08] Speaker 1: I would also like to just quickly go to bat
[2:11] Speaker 1: for Sage because between Sage and Christian, only one of
[2:15] Speaker 1: them has been the final tribal council.
[2:17] Speaker 3: So do it that what you will.
[2:19] Speaker 2: And well, you know, one of them dropped an Instagram manifesto. Yeah, and.
[2:25] Speaker 1: I saw that Sage is apparently gonna be on or
[2:28] Speaker 1: maybe she already has been on.
[2:30] Speaker 2: Rob's podcast, Really the Bottom's Up Crew. I got bottomlification
[2:36] Speaker 2: for that, yeah, or I saw it in my Spotify somewhere.
[2:39] Speaker 3: And I'm like, oh, I guess you know.
[2:42] Speaker 5: Me and PB decided last night that if you take
[2:47] Speaker 5: away the players who are definitely not winning this season,
[2:51] Speaker 5: which are Joe Stephanie, John Dre the Giant, Emily and
[2:55] Speaker 5: tiff three.
[3:03] Speaker 2: What I mean, I'm sorry that it's the truth.
[3:09] Speaker 5: You think Tiffany can win after not being included in
[3:12] Speaker 5: the first four episodes of this season, I.
[3:14] Speaker 2: Do, Okay, I don't think so. Yeah, I don't think
[3:18] Speaker 2: so either win.
[3:20] Speaker 3: I think Emily can win.
[3:21] Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I think Emily, who every episode gets treated
[3:25] Speaker 5: like she's playing the worst game of all time.
[3:27] Speaker 2: Can win the season. And then you got Joe.
[3:30] Speaker 5: He's a part of that four horsemen alliance that just
[3:33] Speaker 5: keeps losing players every week.
[3:34] Speaker 2: Okay, So like.
[3:35] Speaker 4: Joe's gonna have to change it up or go home.
[3:37] Speaker 4: It's what's going down to two horsemen.
[3:40] Speaker 1: Fairly a horse who's more like a buggy.
[3:45] Speaker 2: They're taking a carriage ride through.
[3:49] Speaker 1: Trail on your Magical List, Chase.
[3:53] Speaker 5: So it would be Sie, rizk God, Ozzie, Christian Devins
[3:58] Speaker 5: and Aubrey are the ones that we think could win it.
[4:02] Speaker 5: But realistically, realistically the final three is Suri riz god In,
[4:06] Speaker 5: Ozzy's rizard of Oz.
[4:08] Speaker 2: But you can't say realistically the final three because of
[4:12] Speaker 2: fire making, right, And.
[4:14] Speaker 5: That's where Christian can come into play and win the
[4:16] Speaker 5: whole season. For me, I don't think Christian's winning either.
[4:20] Speaker 2: Well you know, I think.
[4:22] Speaker 3: Uh he could.
[4:24] Speaker 4: It's just it's too early to tell. God, you think
[4:28] Speaker 4: the whole thing. Really, here's what I here's what I
[4:32] Speaker 4: would say. If Sari wins, there would be a part
[4:34] Speaker 4: of me that thinks it's rigged, because like what a
[4:36] Speaker 4: story like wow, the person who hasn't won Survivor and
[4:40] Speaker 4: it's been on here the most one season.
[4:42] Speaker 2: Fifty are the same though. Yeah, but if Ozzy wins,
[4:46] Speaker 2: I don't think it's rigged. So according to Jonathan, if
[4:52] Speaker 2: Sari wins, it must be rigged because she's never won before.
[4:57] Speaker 4: If there's only two, there's only two that I think
[5:01] Speaker 4: if it if they don't win, that it's not rigged,
[5:05] Speaker 4: and that's Riz God and Ozzy.
[5:07] Speaker 2: If they win, this game's not rigged.
[5:10] Speaker 1: Because those are your between between and yeah, I would
[5:16] Speaker 1: like to hear it.
[5:17] Speaker 4: I think that Ozzie has probably not rigged the game.
[5:23] Speaker 2: Okay, so this is that insightful analysis that people are
[5:26] Speaker 2: talking about.
[5:28] Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, hey guys, p D you were you were late,
[5:34] Speaker 4: but I was gonna say I have something to show
[5:36] Speaker 4: y'all right up top. Yeah, and It's okay, it's an
[5:39] Speaker 4: audio medium, but uh, I needed y'all to see, and
[5:44] Speaker 4: so hold tight, I'm gonna share.
[5:47] Speaker 2: I'm gonna share my screen with you. Hold and tight.
[5:50] Speaker 4: Hold on a second, Hold on, I'm gonna stop sharing.
[5:52] Speaker 3: I'm gonna stick on my floor. What is that doing
[5:55] Speaker 3: under the table anyway? Carry on?
[5:57] Speaker 4: Is that she stick on your floor? You're just happy
[5:59] Speaker 4: to see me, you know.
[6:08] Speaker 3: All right, it's down there. Okay, there it is.
[6:09] Speaker 4: You'll see you'll see a little video on your screen.
[6:11] Speaker 3: Yes, I see, let me.
[6:15] Speaker 2: Yeah, don't worry. Now.
[6:17] Speaker 4: You may be thinking, why are we seeing Jonathan on
[6:19] Speaker 4: a video.
[6:20] Speaker 2: He's already in the podcast. You're probably thinking.
[6:24] Speaker 4: Oh, Jonathan doesn't know what bits are and he skipped
[6:26] Speaker 4: a couple of weeks, so he doesn't care about this show.
[6:29] Speaker 4: I put myself at the beginning of this video because
[6:31] Speaker 4: I knew you bozos would want to see what was
[6:34] Speaker 4: the little thumbnail in the text thread.
[6:36] Speaker 2: Real clip.
[6:39] Speaker 6: Jay, Reality Television Icon Survivor Hall of Famer.
[6:44] Speaker 1: Uh, Jonathan is possibly the greatest making the Merge villain.
[6:48] Speaker 2: Ever.
[6:48] Speaker 3: Why do you ask Johnny fair Play would know?
[6:51] Speaker 2: Because is Caddy dead?
[6:54] Speaker 6: Folks, and more importantly, they ain't even fucking a Oh
[7:01] Speaker 6: my god.
[7:01] Speaker 2: You guys are idiots. You're waiting. It's like, uh, it's
[7:07] Speaker 2: a bunch of rupers.
[7:10] Speaker 4: Your cat's not dead, my cats. My cat's with me
[7:15] Speaker 4: right now.
[7:15] Speaker 2: Jonathan just showed us his cat on the screen. Wait. Wait, wait,
[7:20] Speaker 2: this old jack thing was a lie that you ye
[7:24] Speaker 2: with with Johnny Fairplay jacking it for fifty.
[7:28] Speaker 3: We've been jacking it for fifty for no reason.
[7:31] Speaker 2: Wait wait, holds, is it a bit that it's a bit? No,
[7:36] Speaker 2: it's real. I've been lying to y'all for weeks.
[7:39] Speaker 3: Why why? Why? Episode eight? Why do this now? Wait?
[7:46] Speaker 2: How long have you had the Johnny Fairplay reveal?
[7:49] Speaker 6: Oh?
[7:49] Speaker 2: I just got it last night. Wait I was. I
[7:52] Speaker 2: was a message to him and he was super cool.
[7:55] Speaker 2: I said that Kristen has been going along with this.
[7:57] Speaker 2: Oh yeah for oh yeah dude.
[7:59] Speaker 4: Plus No, I mean it's been longer than that, because
[8:02] Speaker 4: you remember we talked about it. I know, y'all like,
[8:05] Speaker 4: why is Jonathan revealing this now?
[8:06] Speaker 2: It's because everybody's locked in.
[8:07] Speaker 4: It's post merged.
[8:09] Speaker 2: I've got all the people.
[8:10] Speaker 4: On my team now, so it's like, y'all, I've been
[8:14] Speaker 4: gone for two weeks and I was like, how do
[8:16] Speaker 4: I drop in on these guys and realize help them
[8:19] Speaker 4: realize I am playing this game, right, Like, how do
[8:22] Speaker 4: I reveal it?
[8:23] Speaker 5: So for everybody that maybe you have jumped in later
[8:26] Speaker 5: in the season here.
[8:28] Speaker 2: Earlier at the beginning of this season, Jonathan.
[8:33] Speaker 5: Tells all of us that his cat had just died
[8:37] Speaker 5: and that cat Jack, he's really his cat Jack just died.
[8:40] Speaker 2: He's very sad, and so he not even just that.
[8:45] Speaker 2: He when he revealed that, he said, my cat actually
[8:49] Speaker 2: died two weeks ago, and so I made it double
[8:52] Speaker 2: like the cat just died, but actually the cat died,
[8:55] Speaker 2: so it sounded real. Yeah, yeah, dude, so he.
[9:00] Speaker 5: So Jonathan tells us as cat died, everyone in our
[9:03] Speaker 5: Patreon rallies behind him and they start the rally for
[9:08] Speaker 5: jacking it for fifty.
[9:10] Speaker 2: Well I started it, but jacking it for.
[9:13] Speaker 5: But it's a campaign, it's a movement, and so everybody
[9:16] Speaker 5: has started locking in with Jonathan's team. For those of
[9:19] Speaker 5: you who don't know, if you're in our Patreon, you
[9:21] Speaker 5: can lock in with one of our four drafted teams,
[9:24] Speaker 5: and if you are on the winning team at the
[9:26] Speaker 5: end of the season, you get a Prize. Last season,
[9:28] Speaker 5: everybody got custom trophies, and so Jonathan has done all
[9:32] Speaker 5: of this as a ploy to get more people to
[9:34] Speaker 5: lock in with his team.
[9:36] Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I did it.
[9:38] Speaker 4: Look I knew for season fifty, I was like every
[9:42] Speaker 4: good season. I was like, every good season has a villain, right,
[9:45] Speaker 4: Like every season has a villain and you gotta love them.
[9:48] Speaker 4: And I started thinking now that prior to us actually recording,
[9:52] Speaker 4: like the draft, I mean, I'm talking two or three
[9:55] Speaker 4: weeks before Survivor premiered, I'm looking at Kristin like I've
[9:57] Speaker 4: got a lie that our cat has died. Now my cat,
[10:00] Speaker 4: Casper has stood in the place of Jack. Casper's fine.
[10:04] Speaker 4: He hangs out with me. In fact, a few times
[10:06] Speaker 4: when we've recorded, he's been like on the top of
[10:08] Speaker 4: the couch.
[10:09] Speaker 2: Next time, I thought you had more than one cat.
[10:11] Speaker 2: I do.
[10:12] Speaker 4: I have two cats, But I just he was the
[10:14] Speaker 4: best one to pretend had died because he doesn't get
[10:16] Speaker 4: in camera too much. So I uh so, basically I
[10:21] Speaker 4: decided two or three week you.
[10:23] Speaker 2: But one cat that does like to get on there.
[10:25] Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, And.
[10:27] Speaker 4: Casper does watch TV by the way, So I ended up, Uh,
[10:31] Speaker 4: I just thought, Okay, I've got to figure out how
[10:34] Speaker 4: to get people to take me seriously. How do I
[10:37] Speaker 4: get people like in on a bit? I need this
[10:39] Speaker 4: bit to last through the merge. So then I was like,
[10:42] Speaker 4: I should just do the Johnny Fairplay right, like say
[10:44] Speaker 4: someone has died, And I was like, I should say
[10:46] Speaker 4: my cat has died. So then I fully sent that, right,
[10:51] Speaker 4: and then I mean, I'm I'm texting y'all.
[10:53] Speaker 2: You know, Chase.
[10:53] Speaker 4: At one point you sent me a message where you
[10:55] Speaker 4: were like, in all seriousness, I am really sorry your
[10:58] Speaker 4: cat died. And I was like, thank man, Like I
[11:00] Speaker 4: know you're just joking, like you know that kind of thing.
[11:03] Speaker 2: And uh, it's been.
[11:05] Speaker 4: Terrible, like terribly hard to keep the lie going. And
[11:08] Speaker 4: so oh now, Johnny Fairplay and I we live in
[11:12] Speaker 4: the same town, right, and we follow each other.
[11:15] Speaker 2: And so I told Kristen.
[11:17] Speaker 4: I was like, I feel like it's time to reveal.
[11:19] Speaker 4: And I was like, I'm gonna. I've messaged Johnny. So
[11:23] Speaker 4: I sent him a message like, dude, please please reveal
[11:27] Speaker 4: that I've been lying to these guys about my cat.
[11:29] Speaker 4: It's like just an audio message, and dude sent me
[11:32] Speaker 4: a video back messaged me and I was like, oh,
[11:35] Speaker 4: this is this is the best. He could not have
[11:37] Speaker 4: been a better sport. So that's why frown.
[11:41] Speaker 2: Jonathan much better YouTuber than Chases. He hasn't even seen
[11:44] Speaker 2: Star Wars, but shout out Johnny Fairplay. He's on tour.
[11:47] Speaker 2: Go see him on tour. We've all been blindsided. We
[11:51] Speaker 2: are like Rupert and you're Johnny Fairplay and we're yelling
[11:55] Speaker 2: at you on the beach. Is how I feel in
[11:57] Speaker 2: my mind. But I can't believe that we all were
[12:00] Speaker 2: like sending you messages saying like we're sorry everyone and again,
[12:04] Speaker 2: start better judgment.
[12:05] Speaker 3: We let you change your teammate. I forced it.
[12:10] Speaker 1: We had Jersey's mate.
[12:18] Speaker 4: See, I've been gone for two weeks and y'all are like,
[12:21] Speaker 4: Jonathan doesn't care about this podcast. I've been lying for
[12:24] Speaker 4: twelve weeks.
[12:25] Speaker 2: Yeah that makes you seem great.
[12:27] Speaker 4: Yeah no, but I mean, if you want to talk
[12:29] Speaker 4: about not committing, I committed fully. I had to make
[12:32] Speaker 4: sure that there were no cats in sight anywhere. I'm
[12:35] Speaker 4: digging up old pictures of Casper being like, man, I
[12:38] Speaker 4: sure miss my cat. Send it into Patreon and stuff,
[12:40] Speaker 4: and it's like, you know, it's been it's been.
[12:44] Speaker 5: So excited to see if the people in the Patreon
[12:48] Speaker 5: think this is awesome and are like stick with you,
[12:51] Speaker 5: or if they all hate you.
[12:52] Speaker 4: Yeah, they've got to respect it, right, please please respect me.
[12:57] Speaker 2: It has to be respected for the fact that Johnny
[13:00] Speaker 2: fair Play dead Grandma Johnny fair Play revealed it to
[13:04] Speaker 2: us on the podcast.
[13:05] Speaker 4: Yeah, and he crowned me the greatest villain of making
[13:08] Speaker 4: the merch history.
[13:09] Speaker 2: So I hate, I hate to break it to you.
[13:12] Speaker 3: Chase.
[13:13] Speaker 2: You were you were a close second.
[13:16] Speaker 3: The good news is is your your your cat's alive.
[13:20] Speaker 3: So great.
[13:22] Speaker 4: Yeah, that's that's my theme music for Jackie's Dead.
[13:29] Speaker 3: Yeah.
[13:29] Speaker 4: I hope your cat does well if it helps. I
[13:32] Speaker 4: had did have one of my cats died two years ago,
[13:35] Speaker 4: but you know I had.
[13:36] Speaker 2: I don't even believe you then, No, I did. I did.
[13:39] Speaker 4: I had to tap into the reality of that. So
[13:41] Speaker 4: thanks for reopening that wound.
[13:42] Speaker 2: Chase.
[13:43] Speaker 3: You you you did it. This isn't on Chase. No
[13:50] Speaker 3: one asked for this.
[13:53] Speaker 2: All right, let's crack op with this cocon dot should we?
[13:56] Speaker 2: I don't know. This is like when Angelina spoke to me,
[13:59] Speaker 2: in the sense that I'm like, where do we go
[14:00] Speaker 2: from here? We have Jan Dre, Chrissy and Stephanie talking
[14:06] Speaker 2: to each other the cut from the Same Cloth Alliance,
[14:08] Speaker 2: if you will, mm hmm, and we have Jon Dre
[14:12] Speaker 2: and Stephanie saying, coach, you gotta settle down, and Chrissy's like, yeah,
[14:17] Speaker 2: you know, the haikup and the singing, it's too much.
[14:19] Speaker 2: And then we get our first talk of the middle people.
[14:22] Speaker 2: Stephan Chrissy are like, we got to get out the
[14:24] Speaker 2: middle people. We can't let the middle people skate to
[14:27] Speaker 2: the final four. Pretty much everybody early on is gunning
[14:30] Speaker 2: for Aubrey Devins, Christian and Emily. Should be easy, Yeah,
[14:36] Speaker 2: should be Yeah?
[14:38] Speaker 4: What what was that did you get?
[14:44] Speaker 2: We can't understand what you're saying.
[14:47] Speaker 4: You one, but why are you a robot?
[14:53] Speaker 3: Right now?
[14:53] Speaker 2: Chase? You did no.
[15:01] Speaker 7: My uh my road past my other microphone dropped onto
[15:05] Speaker 7: the roadcaster and clicked the button.
[15:08] Speaker 3: And you only have you only have us in your ears.
[15:13] Speaker 2: That's fun. Yeah, I don't have me in my so
[15:16] Speaker 2: Jack the cat is not real and Chase is a robot?
[15:23] Speaker 3: Wait are you for real?
[15:25] Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, so embarrassing.
[15:29] Speaker 4: Jack's not even dead, Okay.
[15:37] Speaker 2: I was.
[15:38] Speaker 7: I got pissed off because you guys are like, we
[15:40] Speaker 7: don't understand what you're saying, and I was like, God,
[15:43] Speaker 7: you would think I just due.
[15:49] Speaker 3: I can't wait for you to hear that back. It's
[15:50] Speaker 3: so funny.
[15:53] Speaker 2: This is the kbone of Survivor podcasts.
[15:57] Speaker 4: Oh man, it's just it's so funny because it's.
[16:02] Speaker 2: All right, keep going, keep going. I guess we can't
[16:11] Speaker 2: record remotely. We're all remote right now because we had
[16:14] Speaker 2: to reschedule the next day. I don't know. It's just
[16:17] Speaker 2: right now. I'm gonna have to music, okay, I can't
[16:23] Speaker 2: get it under control. So, like I said, Jack, the
[16:27] Speaker 2: cat not real, Chase is a robot. And now it's
[16:31] Speaker 2: Tiffy time. Oh, it's Tiffy time. The episode started with
[16:39] Speaker 2: Tiff post d blind Side and she was understandably upset,
[16:43] Speaker 2: having received four votes herself. But she's playing it cool.
[16:47] Speaker 2: I believe her Instagram is tiff crazy cool. Is that right?
[16:51] Speaker 3: Yeah, something like that.
[16:53] Speaker 2: So that's what's happening. She's feeling crazy, she's playing it cool,
[16:57] Speaker 2: that's right. And up next, we got a boat brand.
[17:00] Speaker 2: You want to do your boat thing?
[17:03] Speaker 3: I mean, it's sounded like you were mocking it.
[17:07] Speaker 2: You're not mocking it. Brand you want to do your
[17:09] Speaker 2: little boat thing, It's fine, just go no brand, brand
[17:16] Speaker 2: to the boat. Okay, great contribution, great contributors.
[17:26] Speaker 4: Brand the boat sounds like a Thomas the Tank Engine
[17:28] Speaker 4: spin off.
[17:30] Speaker 2: Yeah, brand the boat, all right. Maybe it's a journey,
[17:33] Speaker 2: maybe it's an auction. Nobody knows, but Ozzie. He reads
[17:37] Speaker 2: the note to everybody, explaining they must divide into six pairs,
[17:41] Speaker 2: and since there's thirteen of them, one of them won't
[17:43] Speaker 2: be chosen. So Devin's quickly volunteered to sit out, and
[17:46] Speaker 2: then Sire and then Chrissy, and then all the people
[17:49] Speaker 2: who want to sit out put their shots in the
[17:51] Speaker 2: dark in a bag, and Coach pulls out Siri's name,
[17:54] Speaker 2: and now there's all this talk of how do we decide?
[17:58] Speaker 2: And Joe is like back in my season, and we
[18:00] Speaker 2: just talked it out like adults, and then we get
[18:03] Speaker 2: a confessional. And then in a confessional Joe, it's like
[18:08] Speaker 2: we're just gonna chat it up a little bit, you know,
[18:10] Speaker 2: like talking out like it's a dating app, get a
[18:12] Speaker 2: feel for each other. And so after everybody does that,
[18:16] Speaker 2: we get Christian and Jan Dre the Brocaccos are back.
[18:21] Speaker 2: We have Chrissy and coach, Ozzy and Stephanie, Joe and Tiffany,
[18:25] Speaker 2: Emily and Rizzo, and then the underdogs Aubrey and Devin's.
[18:31] Speaker 3: I think the team's worked out pretty well.
[18:33] Speaker 1: I like I I all of those teams made relative
[18:36] Speaker 1: sense to me.
[18:37] Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, why do you think they brought that?
[18:40] Speaker 1: Why do you think a boat had to deliver that message?
[18:42] Speaker 1: Why is that not just tree mail?
[18:45] Speaker 2: They don't really show the tree mail stuff anymore.
[18:47] Speaker 1: Yeah, but but they do get it, like occasionally it'll
[18:51] Speaker 1: pop up, but it's not like a like, why was
[18:54] Speaker 1: this boat delivery news?
[18:56] Speaker 2: Yeah? I don't know. I'm not sure.
[19:00] Speaker 1: Maybe they just wanted it to be It was a Sunday,
[19:01] Speaker 1: the post office was closed.
[19:04] Speaker 2: It could be yeah, who knows, who knows. It's not
[19:08] Speaker 2: challenged time yet though.
[19:10] Speaker 3: No.
[19:10] Speaker 2: Joan dre is in the hammock. He's talking to Joe
[19:12] Speaker 2: and Aussie and they all agree. Rick Devans he's just
[19:15] Speaker 2: so good at finding idols that he's got to go.
[19:18] Speaker 2: And then we get a Tiffany and Coach conversation and
[19:23] Speaker 2: this was quite the scene. It started with Chrissy saying
[19:29] Speaker 2: to coach tiff is upset, tell her, I didn't come
[19:32] Speaker 2: up with that plan or whatever, you know, something like that,
[19:34] Speaker 2: and then coaching a confessional, he says Tiffany is the
[19:37] Speaker 2: obvious next target, but he doesn't want her to know
[19:40] Speaker 2: that he was controlling the vote, so he has to
[19:43] Speaker 2: turn on the charm. He has to patch things up.
[19:45] Speaker 2: Did things get patched up?
[19:47] Speaker 1: Bran, things didn't get patched up? And this is you know,
[19:51] Speaker 1: this is I think Coach showing that he's not.
[19:54] Speaker 3: The young buck anymore.
[19:55] Speaker 1: He's not as sharp as he once was, because he
[19:57] Speaker 1: does he goes up and he's like, listen, this wasn't
[19:59] Speaker 1: my plan.
[20:01] Speaker 3: And I don't know if this is really what happened.
[20:03] Speaker 3: I don't know if this is an editor, I don't know.
[20:06] Speaker 1: But tiff says, okay, if it wasn't you, who was it?
[20:10] Speaker 1: And then we get just like ten seconds of Coach
[20:14] Speaker 1: just looking down at the saying and then tiff doubling
[20:17] Speaker 1: down being like who was it? And he says nothing,
[20:22] Speaker 1: and then they shake hands and they moved on.
[20:24] Speaker 2: Dude, I loved that moment.
[20:27] Speaker 1: He had to say something, right, he had to say something.
[20:30] Speaker 2: No, dude, it was like he he because what he
[20:34] Speaker 2: says before he goes.
[20:34] Speaker 5: And talks to Tiffany, he goes, all right, let me
[20:36] Speaker 5: put on the coach charm real quick. Did the coach
[20:41] Speaker 5: charm looks a lot like when coach fucks up real bad?
[20:44] Speaker 3: Yeah?
[20:44] Speaker 1: Yeah, dude, Oh man, that was so funny, Like I
[20:49] Speaker 1: I like, is he How dumb is he? How dumb
[20:53] Speaker 1: does he think that Tiff is that he could he
[20:55] Speaker 1: would just say hey, it wasn't me, and tiff would
[20:57] Speaker 1: be like, oh well, okay.
[20:58] Speaker 3: Then did he he anticipate a single question? I didn't
[21:02] Speaker 3: see it coming.
[21:03] Speaker 2: No, And that brings us to Challenge Time with Chase.
[21:07] Speaker 5: It's way way wait wait, favorite time of the episode.
[21:12] Speaker 4: What is with this? I'm till I'm told to do
[21:14] Speaker 4: a challenge this week? No no, no, no, no, Chase
[21:20] Speaker 4: shut up.
[21:21] Speaker 2: In one of the challenge challenges of this we see
[21:24] Speaker 2: our what's happening?
[21:26] Speaker 4: I'm telling you? Oh my word, look I thought it
[21:29] Speaker 4: was I told everyone in the Patriot it was Challenged
[21:32] Speaker 4: time with Jonathan this week. No gold Derby allowed. And
[21:36] Speaker 4: then we switched to a Friday. You know what, Fine,
[21:38] Speaker 4: that's fine, I'm gonna mute anyway. It's cool, it's cool,
[21:41] Speaker 4: it's cool.
[21:42] Speaker 3: Jonathan. Did you take notes? Is that why you're so insistent.
[21:46] Speaker 4: Look, I was just gonna type it into GPT or something.
[21:52] Speaker 2: You were going to so you didn't, So you didn't.
[21:55] Speaker 2: What don't have I don't want to talk about it.
[21:58] Speaker 2: See how this goes? Chase hold, I don't want to
[22:00] Speaker 2: talk about Nathan. You do the challenge?
[22:02] Speaker 3: Yeah, go ahead.
[22:03] Speaker 4: It's my favorite part of the episode. It's challenge time
[22:07] Speaker 4: with Jonathan. Guys, let's talk about the duo twist, right,
[22:11] Speaker 4: I mean, right out of the gate, we get there,
[22:14] Speaker 4: everybody's so happy, and then suddenly we realize. Jeff says,
[22:19] Speaker 4: this is a double duo twist, right, because now we
[22:23] Speaker 4: are going to be giving the duo who wins this
[22:26] Speaker 4: this now two layered challenge, we're going to be giving them.
[22:30] Speaker 4: I feel weird doing this. I feel out of place.
[22:34] Speaker 4: Have notes and you're just going off the dome. I
[22:36] Speaker 4: have bullet points if it helps, I have bullets. Do
[22:39] Speaker 4: you actually I do have bullet points?
[22:40] Speaker 3: Wait?
[22:42] Speaker 2: You cut off? Chase told him to shut up. He said,
[22:44] Speaker 2: I told everyone it's challenged time with Jonathan, and then
[22:46] Speaker 2: you interrupt yourself in the middle of that and say,
[22:49] Speaker 2: I feel weird.
[22:50] Speaker 4: I feel weird, I feel I feel like I've I
[22:52] Speaker 4: feel like I've gone into host Jonathan mode where I'm
[22:55] Speaker 4: gonna be talking about the challenge sauce.
[22:57] Speaker 2: Suddenly, Yeah, you feel weird because.
[23:01] Speaker 4: It's everybody's favorite part of the episode, guys.
[23:06] Speaker 5: In one of the coolest challenges of the season, we
[23:09] Speaker 5: see our paired up tribe mates compete in the double
[23:13] Speaker 5: duo twist. Okay, here's the thing about the double duo. Yeah,
[23:16] Speaker 5: here's the thing about the double duo That means four.
[23:20] Speaker 5: Double duo means four.
[23:23] Speaker 2: Yeah, yep, yeah, I would say so. I think they
[23:27] Speaker 2: botched the branding on this twist a little bit. Damn it.
[23:32] Speaker 2: I gotta turn my ringer off. Wow wow yeah PD back,
[23:36] Speaker 2: we back podcast.
[23:37] Speaker 5: We got to talk about this. Are you eighty five
[23:39] Speaker 5: years old? Why do you have your ringer on?
[23:43] Speaker 2: Because I set an alarm and then it'll go off
[23:46] Speaker 2: and then I don't turn the ringer off after wait wait,
[23:49] Speaker 2: wait the alarms you were without a ringer on? Are
[23:54] Speaker 2: you sure? Yeah? Positive? Then I need to do some
[23:58] Speaker 2: research into this.
[24:00] Speaker 1: What in the world, I mean, all of us are here,
[24:04] Speaker 1: the rest of us, so I do think it does work.
[24:09] Speaker 3: But I will say this, my little I heard a
[24:11] Speaker 3: chime too.
[24:12] Speaker 1: I think on my end because of my laptop. I
[24:14] Speaker 1: got a new laptop and I haven't turned off, so
[24:17] Speaker 1: I'll take the blame for PD.
[24:19] Speaker 2: Okay, here's another point I want to make about the
[24:21] Speaker 2: double duo is it was described as double the stakes,
[24:25] Speaker 2: double the decisions, double the consequences. So that's three examples
[24:31] Speaker 2: for the double duo. I think we could have just
[24:33] Speaker 2: done triple triple.
[24:35] Speaker 1: Really, I'll say this squad branding be be darned.
[24:43] Speaker 3: This is a this is a better twist.
[24:46] Speaker 1: This was way better than we He waxed poetic for
[24:51] Speaker 1: eight minutes about the blood moon and at the end
[24:53] Speaker 1: we've made it clear. But it's just three tribles.
[24:56] Speaker 3: That's all that.
[24:56] Speaker 2: It is.
[24:57] Speaker 3: The double twist a twist.
[25:00] Speaker 1: And a fun one, and a cool way to kind
[25:03] Speaker 1: of get two players out without doing double tribal and
[25:07] Speaker 1: allowing everybody to vote.
[25:08] Speaker 3: I thought that this is how you do it, This
[25:10] Speaker 3: is how I know what.
[25:11] Speaker 2: I'll Yeah, this was an awesome twist.
[25:14] Speaker 5: It was so basically, you win or lose as a
[25:16] Speaker 5: duo in the challenge, and then you will be voted
[25:19] Speaker 5: out as that duo.
[25:21] Speaker 2: So when you vote at tribal, you vote individually.
[25:24] Speaker 5: You can vote for different people, but when you get
[25:28] Speaker 5: voted for, it's as a duo. And we actually get
[25:30] Speaker 5: some behind the scenes about the vote out tonight, and
[25:33] Speaker 5: we can talk about that later for Tribal But first
[25:37] Speaker 5: Si gets sent to exile since she's the only one
[25:40] Speaker 5: without a duo, and that actually works out as an
[25:43] Speaker 5: advantage for her because she is safe tonight she cannot
[25:47] Speaker 5: be voted for now. SuRie famously gets fucked in Survivor
[25:53] Speaker 5: seasons by twists like this. She usually goes home because
[25:56] Speaker 5: of crazy twists.
[25:57] Speaker 2: In the game.
[25:58] Speaker 5: This is the first time that the twist of the
[26:00] Speaker 5: game is actually to her benefit, which is really cool.
[26:05] Speaker 2: For this challenge, you throw a ball, I do really
[26:08] Speaker 2: quickly Chase.
[26:08] Speaker 1: I'm so sorry, but I do want to just say
[26:11] Speaker 1: how funny it was that They're like, uh, Surri, how
[26:14] Speaker 1: did you come How did we come to the conclusion
[26:16] Speaker 1: that it was going to be you? We know, we
[26:18] Speaker 1: saw how it was the pick of the dice, right Yeah.
[26:22] Speaker 1: She's like, listen, I'm not good at challenges. I'm just
[26:25] Speaker 1: taking one for the team. I'm like, we saw how
[26:28] Speaker 1: you How we got to this conclusion. It had nothing
[26:31] Speaker 1: to do with whether or not.
[26:32] Speaker 3: You were good.
[26:32] Speaker 2: She wanted to put her name in the hat.
[26:36] Speaker 1: Right, but it's but it's but yeah, okay, I guess.
[26:39] Speaker 1: But everybody else, I mean, also wanted to.
[26:41] Speaker 2: So I agree with you, brand. I thought it was
[26:44] Speaker 2: interesting to.
[26:46] Speaker 3: Oh, look at that cat up there.
[26:48] Speaker 2: Oh yeah, look at that cat that's alive.
[26:50] Speaker 3: There he is.
[26:51] Speaker 2: But yeah, everything that Jeff said about the blood Moon,
[26:54] Speaker 2: if he had said it about this, we would have
[26:56] Speaker 2: been like, Yeah, that wasn't hyperbolic at all. This is
[26:58] Speaker 2: going to change the game forever. Yeah.
[27:01] Speaker 5: For this challenge, you throw a ball onto an overhead track.
[27:04] Speaker 5: You race under it to catch it on the other side. Then,
[27:07] Speaker 5: once both players are through, you will maneuver the ball
[27:10] Speaker 5: across a series of platforms using paddles. You then toss
[27:14] Speaker 5: the ball into a target. Then you work together to
[27:17] Speaker 5: build a bridge using puzzle planks. The first three payers
[27:21] Speaker 5: to complete the bridge and move across it and move
[27:23] Speaker 5: onto the final round. Now, the final round is the
[27:27] Speaker 5: PD Special. This is the ball from a cage challenge
[27:33] Speaker 5: that PD played at the Survivor Cafe and did really
[27:35] Speaker 5: good at. And then after that you have the classic
[27:38] Speaker 5: table Maze challenge. The first pair to get two balls
[27:42] Speaker 5: through the maze when immunity and are safe at the
[27:45] Speaker 5: double duo tribal But what are they playing for reward wise?
[27:49] Speaker 5: Thanks for asking, spaghetti and what's that? There's layers to
[27:54] Speaker 5: the ship player Tara Massoux. They're playing for Tara Masoux, who.
[28:00] Speaker 4: At that moment said, I love dear miss Stephanie.
[28:03] Speaker 2: Stephanie. Yeah, yeah.
[28:05] Speaker 1: I Also I didn't take the weeks that come like
[28:09] Speaker 1: right after a like apple Bee's, you know thing where
[28:14] Speaker 1: it's like you're gonna get burgers and whatnot from Applebee's
[28:17] Speaker 1: and then like this is just it's spaghetti.
[28:20] Speaker 4: Don't have from it doesn't matter, it's razor food, you know, Yeah, yeah,
[28:26] Speaker 4: five dollars a plate.
[28:28] Speaker 3: Yeah, it'd be great. We have a spaghetti night, it's
[28:30] Speaker 3: a spaghetti dinner.
[28:33] Speaker 5: We have some really interesting duos competing in the challenge.
[28:36] Speaker 5: Aubrey actually takes the lead early on for her and Devns,
[28:40] Speaker 5: but Joe and Tiff quickly show that they are both
[28:43] Speaker 5: challenged beasts taking a big lead. Christy and Coach are
[28:47] Speaker 5: in dead last, and I wonder if that's some sort
[28:50] Speaker 5: of omen. Maybe Coach yells out, I've always been bad
[28:56] Speaker 5: at basketball, which made me wonder what sport did he coach.
[29:00] Speaker 5: I always assumed it was basketball because but then I
[29:04] Speaker 5: remembered it was women's.
[29:05] Speaker 3: Soccer, women's solid soccer.
[29:07] Speaker 2: Hmm.
[29:09] Speaker 1: Anyway, striking him as a coach, he's been coached the entire.
[29:14] Speaker 2: Quick everyone closed your eyes real quick. Imagine it. Anyway, thanks,
[29:20] Speaker 2: great contribution, Jathan.
[29:23] Speaker 4: I'm in my villains, look questioned, Johnny, fairplay about my decisions.
[29:27] Speaker 2: Okay, hey Jonathan, great contribution, all right.
[29:33] Speaker 5: Anyway, I can't stress enough how great at this challenge.
[29:37] Speaker 5: Tiff and Joe are, but Christian and Jondre the Giant
[29:40] Speaker 5: are actually struggling. DeAndre at one point yells at Christian
[29:45] Speaker 5: to be louder. So Christian yells tiny, extra large medium,
[29:49] Speaker 5: which is the same thing that I yell at the
[29:51] Speaker 5: Little Caesars employee through the drive through.
[29:55] Speaker 1: Am I right, ladies, Yeah, yeah, go ahead and cross
[29:59] Speaker 1: the one off.
[30:00] Speaker 3: That's not a had that's not gonna make it.
[30:04] Speaker 2: That's not gonna make the routine.
[30:05] Speaker 3: But I appreciate you trying it out on us.
[30:08] Speaker 1: Trying out what that's just the material that you just
[30:11] Speaker 1: went with the Little Caesars bit.
[30:15] Speaker 3: It was good for me. I don't think it's gonna
[30:16] Speaker 3: work in front of a crowd.
[30:17] Speaker 2: Hey, watch this, Watch this, watch this.
[30:21] Speaker 5: This is gonna be an episode. I'm gonna clip it
[30:23] Speaker 5: and it's gonna be the most viewed clip of all time.
[30:27] Speaker 5: But Chase huh is gonna throw.
[30:32] Speaker 1: A million dollars at it just.
[30:36] Speaker 2: Makes it a paid ad. So I rolled on to
[30:38] Speaker 2: the Little Caesars. I started yelling at everybody medium, large, whatever.
[30:43] Speaker 2: That was a good joke.
[30:44] Speaker 3: Fuck y'all tiny. I like the classic pizza size.
[30:51] Speaker 5: That's what makes it funny. I'm not gonna get lectured
[30:53] Speaker 5: on Disney. This was a good joke, and I'm personal.
[30:56] Speaker 4: You should if if they had said personal medium, that would.
[31:01] Speaker 2: Have shut up. I'm gonna clip this and it's going
[31:04] Speaker 2: to go. It's nothing to get upset about. It is
[31:06] Speaker 2: something to get upset about.
[31:08] Speaker 4: Wait wait, wait, Chase, you said you're gonna go wild,
[31:11] Speaker 4: but don't you mean you're gonna go crazy?
[31:13] Speaker 2: Bread I can do it too. Joe and Tiff, Ozzie
[31:21] Speaker 2: and Chad and Devin's move on to the final rounds.
[31:34] Speaker 3: Nothing to get upset about.
[31:38] Speaker 5: The table maze is always intense, but Joe and Tiff
[31:41] Speaker 5: continue to dominate and win the entire thing. It's a
[31:44] Speaker 5: great showing for Joe and tiff here.
[31:46] Speaker 2: Yeah, they came in hot and ready. You know, it
[31:47] Speaker 2: was a It was a good show. It's a good joke.
[31:57] Speaker 3: It was a.
[31:58] Speaker 1: Good comeback too, because they were really struggling with the cage.
[32:03] Speaker 2: Like Andre yells at Christian to be louder.
[32:06] Speaker 5: So Christian yells tiny, extra large medium, which is what
[32:09] Speaker 5: I yell at the little Caesars employee for the drive.
[32:12] Speaker 2: Wait wait, no, that we were We moved on. That's
[32:16] Speaker 2: a good challenge. That's a good joke. Is a joke,
[32:20] Speaker 2: it is a it's well structured. Yeah, do you think, Chase,
[32:25] Speaker 2: it's nothing to get upset about. It is though, but
[32:29] Speaker 2: yes it is okay. So where are we at in
[32:33] Speaker 2: the challenge? Chase, I've been thinking about comedy.
[32:35] Speaker 3: That was it. I'm done.
[32:37] Speaker 2: If you guys would have stopped interrupting, you would have listened, Chase,
[32:40] Speaker 2: It's all right. M So now let's talk about Siri
[32:50] Speaker 2: at exile. Si walks up to the big coconut field brand.
[32:55] Speaker 2: You're a prophet because the other week you mentioned the
[32:58] Speaker 2: coconut field. It's sound on it a little out of place,
[33:02] Speaker 2: but then turns out that's what Suri went to.
[33:05] Speaker 1: That's right, And it makes you wonder, have I got screeners?
[33:09] Speaker 1: Did I have an inside tip?
[33:12] Speaker 2: Yeah?
[33:13] Speaker 3: I don't know.
[33:16] Speaker 4: Wonder that This would have been a pretty lame inside
[33:19] Speaker 4: tip though, because you know, I can't tell you much.
[33:24] Speaker 3: But I got two words for you, coconut field. Do
[33:29] Speaker 3: with that what you will?
[33:30] Speaker 2: Yeah? Well, yeah, So Suri gets to exile. It's just
[33:35] Speaker 2: a beach with two thousand coconuts and she's stuck at
[33:38] Speaker 2: exile unless she's able to find the one coconut with
[33:41] Speaker 2: a golden bird on it. And Suri gets to work.
[33:44] Speaker 2: But after a while, Suri starts to break down over
[33:47] Speaker 2: what seems like an impossible task. We keep getting shots
[33:50] Speaker 2: of the one golden coconut with SyRI in the background,
[33:53] Speaker 2: and then Serie's crying. She's exhausted. She talks about how
[33:56] Speaker 2: Survivor breaks you down, and people ask why she comes back,
[33:59] Speaker 2: and she said it's because Survivor gives her the gas
[34:02] Speaker 2: in the tank to believe in herself, And then we
[34:04] Speaker 2: got an awesome montage of Seie moments over the past
[34:07] Speaker 2: three decades and cries. She's determined to keep moving and
[34:12] Speaker 2: she does it. She finds what she described as the
[34:15] Speaker 2: most beautiful bird she'd ever seen. She gets her vote back,
[34:18] Speaker 2: she gets to participate in tribal It was an awesome
[34:21] Speaker 2: moment for Sari, and I'm sure Jonathan would like to
[34:24] Speaker 2: downplay it in some way.
[34:25] Speaker 4: Now, I mean, I don't know. I've Here's I did
[34:31] Speaker 4: a little math for us. All right, you got two
[34:33] Speaker 4: thousand coconuts out on the beach. Let's say that they
[34:35] Speaker 4: give you an hour timer. That means you need to
[34:38] Speaker 4: look at it at least thirty three thirty Yeah, but
[34:41] Speaker 4: like thirty three to thirty four coconuts a minute. That's
[34:46] Speaker 4: not that crazy to look at you know, Like that
[34:50] Speaker 4: gives you two seconds per coconut to look at it
[34:53] Speaker 4: and be like does it Nope, and just walk through it.
[34:56] Speaker 2: So, I mean, am I impressed? I don't think so.
[35:01] Speaker 2: You know, I think you're underestimating how daunting it would
[35:05] Speaker 2: be to walk up to a field of two thousand coconuts.
[35:10] Speaker 2: That's you know, that's just what it is.
[35:12] Speaker 3: You know.
[35:12] Speaker 1: I will say this, if I was to put on
[35:15] Speaker 1: my producer hats, as Jeff likes to do, my criticism
[35:20] Speaker 1: of this is I would like to know at any
[35:24] Speaker 1: given moment, how much time is left in the hourglass,
[35:28] Speaker 1: because I don't I have no idea. I have no
[35:31] Speaker 1: idea how long she's been out there when she sits
[35:33] Speaker 1: down and starts crying, How long has it been, I
[35:36] Speaker 1: don't know. So like when she gets to the final thing,
[35:40] Speaker 1: it could.
[35:41] Speaker 3: Have been ten minutes, it could have been fifty minutes.
[35:44] Speaker 3: I don't know. And so I.
[35:45] Speaker 1: Feel like it would have been like we have the
[35:48] Speaker 1: big powerful moment right with the montage and the like
[35:52] Speaker 1: I can do this, and she gets back up and
[35:53] Speaker 1: it's inspiring and we love it.
[35:55] Speaker 3: But the stakes to me from.
[35:58] Speaker 1: A game standpoint is she only has a limited amount
[36:01] Speaker 1: of time to do this. And it's almost as if
[36:04] Speaker 1: it felt to me that the time was not a
[36:06] Speaker 1: factor and this challenge and so I know, I didn't know.
[36:10] Speaker 1: I have no idea how impressive it was that she
[36:14] Speaker 1: found it.
[36:15] Speaker 3: No idea.
[36:17] Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe they didn't show the timer because it didn't
[36:20] Speaker 4: take up as much time as I thought it would.
[36:23] Speaker 2: Maybe it took them thirty.
[36:24] Speaker 4: Minutes and they were like, well, that seems kind of disappointing.
[36:27] Speaker 4: You know, she has a breakdown, maybe fifteen minutes in
[36:30] Speaker 4: twenty minutes and It's like, I'm toped, but show.
[36:32] Speaker 1: Us that, Like, listen, it's hot, but it's hot out there.
[36:36] Speaker 1: Surrie is older than she once was. Five minutes bending
[36:40] Speaker 1: over turning over coconuts is exhausting to me. That doesn't
[36:44] Speaker 1: take away from it. I just want to know how
[36:45] Speaker 1: long it was?
[36:47] Speaker 3: Is that too much to ask?
[36:49] Speaker 2: I guess it's because I'm such a big SERI stand maybe,
[36:54] Speaker 2: but I was just happy for sire and thought it
[36:56] Speaker 2: was an awesome moment.
[36:57] Speaker 3: It absolutely is an awesome moment, Pete.
[36:59] Speaker 2: You know who would have found it faster? See? Oh well, potentially,
[37:05] Speaker 2: I don't know. His back might have given out.
[37:06] Speaker 3: That's true. Yeah.
[37:08] Speaker 1: The one thing that I bet she's kicking herself is
[37:10] Speaker 1: that she she kept like picking them up and looking
[37:13] Speaker 1: on like the bottom of.
[37:14] Speaker 3: It, Like she didn't have to touch a coconut if
[37:16] Speaker 3: she didn't want to.
[37:17] Speaker 1: She literally could have gone to the other side of
[37:19] Speaker 1: the beach and started and walked and she would have seen.
[37:23] Speaker 3: It, because it's just like facing that way.
[37:27] Speaker 2: Yeah, that is true.
[37:28] Speaker 3: Yeah, so she I bet when she finally found it,
[37:31] Speaker 3: she was.
[37:31] Speaker 2: Just like her eyes were closed. I was just napping
[37:35] Speaker 2: during this journey, like everybody else. Because it was borre.
[37:40] Speaker 2: You know what journey it would like.
[37:45] Speaker 5: Like you guys said, if they would have put like
[37:46] Speaker 5: some sort of time limit, it would have been a
[37:48] Speaker 5: little bit more exciting.
[37:49] Speaker 2: It wasn't that exciting, but I was happy for three.
[37:52] Speaker 2: Jonathan just texted us he was roasting me in the
[37:55] Speaker 2: group chat for sleep each in the corner.
[38:01] Speaker 3: When his joke doesn't land, he puts his mic down
[38:03] Speaker 3: and just leans back.
[38:08] Speaker 2: I don't know what you're talking about, guys. It's a
[38:09] Speaker 2: great joke, and I'm gonna prove it. It's gonna get
[38:12] Speaker 2: clipped and it's gonna go crazy viral. What if we lose?
[38:15] Speaker 3: So what you're what you're.
[38:17] Speaker 1: Saying is that every comedian that has a viral bit
[38:22] Speaker 1: that that's a funny bit. So you're a big like
[38:24] Speaker 1: Matt Rife guy, like you think like everything Matt Rife
[38:26] Speaker 1: posts as hilarious because of the vise.
[38:29] Speaker 2: Or what about Kramer at the Laugh Factory. Yeah, that's
[38:33] Speaker 2: a good one.
[38:35] Speaker 5: I would argue if a joke is posted it and
[38:38] Speaker 5: it gets a lot of views, then it's probably a
[38:41] Speaker 5: pretty good I.
[38:41] Speaker 2: Don't think that's gonna happen.
[38:43] Speaker 4: I've decided that I'm gonna start doing crowd work in
[38:46] Speaker 4: the podcast, just because that seems to be working on
[38:49] Speaker 4: TikTok and Instagram right now?
[38:51] Speaker 3: All right, give it a go, just.
[38:53] Speaker 2: Like, what do you do for a living? Brand?
[38:55] Speaker 3: I'm a podcaster? Podcaster?
[38:57] Speaker 2: Millennials?
[38:58] Speaker 3: Am I right?
[38:59] Speaker 2: Let's clip that? Can we put that up there?
[39:01] Speaker 3: Yeah?
[39:01] Speaker 1: Post that one, Chase, post a Little Caesar's one, and
[39:07] Speaker 1: then a day later post that one.
[39:08] Speaker 3: Let's just see, let's see what does that.
[39:10] Speaker 2: I have a little competition. I have a note for
[39:13] Speaker 2: you like that was really good, but I think we
[39:15] Speaker 2: could work in some pizza material.
[39:17] Speaker 4: Oh o oh okay, so wait, Brandon bred here we go.
[39:21] Speaker 4: Get Hey, what do you do for a living?
[39:22] Speaker 2: Sir?
[39:23] Speaker 3: I'm a I didn't think you'd call on me. I'm
[39:25] Speaker 3: a podcaster.
[39:27] Speaker 2: Oh you didn't think I would call on you? What
[39:28] Speaker 2: are you? A Little Caesar's? No, one's calling them.
[39:34] Speaker 3: Nailed it. We're having.
[39:39] Speaker 1: What we don't know is Chase actually has a like
[39:42] Speaker 1: a deal with Little Caesars. He's gonna tag them and
[39:45] Speaker 1: invite us collaborator, get the Little Caesars bump.
[39:49] Speaker 4: This is all a paid ass Caesars bump is crazy.
[39:52] Speaker 3: Gosh, I'd love a little Caesar sponsorship. M that little guy.
[39:57] Speaker 3: Get that cute little guy on a scooter.
[39:59] Speaker 1: You know, Pizza, that's their their mascot.
[40:06] Speaker 3: He's a little guy on a scooter.
[40:08] Speaker 2: I don't I don't know that anybody's ever referred to
[40:10] Speaker 2: him as that cute little guy, cute little little sea.
[40:12] Speaker 4: He's a cute little of a sponsorship because you know,
[40:16] Speaker 4: get that cute little.
[40:17] Speaker 3: Guy on a scooter.
[40:19] Speaker 4: What I'm talking about the delivery guy.
[40:25] Speaker 3: You guys know what I'm talking about.
[40:28] Speaker 2: Okay, uh. Back at the Merge Beach. On the on
[40:33] Speaker 2: the Merge Beach, we've got Emily, Ozzy, and that little
[40:36] Speaker 2: guy Christian and Emily. Emily says those five are sticking together,
[40:42] Speaker 2: those five being Stephanie, Jonathan, Coach, Joe and Chrissy. And
[40:46] Speaker 2: if we don't vote them out now, they steamroll to
[40:48] Speaker 2: the end. Rizzo disagrees with this. He wants to take
[40:52] Speaker 2: out the floaters, Devin's and Aumbrey because they're playing the middle,
[40:55] Speaker 2: and that's what Rizzo wants to do. He wants to
[40:57] Speaker 2: play the middle. But next up we hear from Amber.
[41:00] Speaker 2: She sounds like she's going to cry. She's talking about
[41:03] Speaker 2: how she should have played her idol. But it is
[41:05] Speaker 2: what it is. But she's going to work her magic,
[41:07] Speaker 2: she says, because she's always been misunderestimated. I just didn't push.
[41:15] Speaker 1: That is a great point though, like all like Devin's
[41:19] Speaker 1: pushing Aubrey to play her idol. Obviously there's no way
[41:23] Speaker 1: for them to have known that. But if she just
[41:24] Speaker 1: once again held on to it, then you know the
[41:28] Speaker 1: hidden idol trick.
[41:29] Speaker 3: Just say that for another day. We have the real idle.
[41:33] Speaker 3: But this is what happens when you just play idols
[41:35] Speaker 3: for no reason.
[41:37] Speaker 2: And now it's Tiffy time again. Oh it's Tiffy time.
[41:44] Speaker 2: I think I'm gonna include Brand's whisper into the drop,
[41:48] Speaker 2: so every time it goes, oh, son of a gun,
[41:49] Speaker 2: here we go. All right, So it's Tiffy time, Tiffy
[41:56] Speaker 2: time and Joe time. Tiffy and Joey time. They get
[42:00] Speaker 2: to enjoy some spaghetti and two steaks in a fried
[42:03] Speaker 2: egg or whatever Brand had at that restaurant at what
[42:08] Speaker 2: fried egg?
[42:09] Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know, you guys. That was fine, guys,
[42:17] Speaker 3: you wouldn't know what.
[42:17] Speaker 1: I can't think I was thinking about this when he
[42:20] Speaker 1: says spaghetti, M Like I understand they're hungry, and I
[42:25] Speaker 1: would eat anything as well, but that's like towards the
[42:27] Speaker 1: top of the list of things that I just don't
[42:29] Speaker 1: want to eat on a beach and like, yeah, sketty
[42:33] Speaker 1: is not beach food.
[42:35] Speaker 3: Yeah.
[42:36] Speaker 4: Well, I mean, I don't know if you've seen Italy,
[42:39] Speaker 4: but there's it's kind of surrounded by water.
[42:43] Speaker 3: Yeah, but you like, you're not on a beach.
[42:46] Speaker 2: You are. I don't know how to tell you, but
[42:49] Speaker 2: you are. Jonathan, Have you been to Italy? Yeah?
[42:53] Speaker 3: Wow, dreams.
[42:55] Speaker 2: I was about to say, when did you go to Italy?
[42:57] Speaker 1: I know there's a difference though, between a there's a
[43:00] Speaker 1: difference between a porch and a beach, like or just
[43:04] Speaker 1: a table let.
[43:05] Speaker 2: Me let me ask you.
[43:07] Speaker 4: Let's say you go Heaven Forbid to Myrtle Beach and
[43:11] Speaker 4: you are maybe two three streets away from the ocean,
[43:15] Speaker 4: and you're eating it, I don't know, seafood buffet.
[43:18] Speaker 2: Are you not eating at the beach?
[43:20] Speaker 3: No?
[43:21] Speaker 2: But are you at the beach?
[43:23] Speaker 3: No?
[43:23] Speaker 2: But you're at Myrtle Beach.
[43:25] Speaker 3: I'm in the town of Myrtle Branch.
[43:28] Speaker 2: Yeah.
[43:28] Speaker 4: But but what some if someone called you, they were like, Brian,
[43:31] Speaker 4: where did you?
[43:32] Speaker 2: Where are you?
[43:32] Speaker 3: Right now.
[43:33] Speaker 2: Would you say I'm at the beach, I'm at Myrtle beach.
[43:35] Speaker 1: I would probably say that, yes, but you understand what
[43:38] Speaker 1: I'm saying though. If I'm okay, fine, let me clarify, Jonathan, if.
[43:44] Speaker 3: I am sitting in the sand.
[43:46] Speaker 1: Yeah, on the beach, yeah, water close by, Yeah, heat
[43:52] Speaker 1: of the day.
[43:52] Speaker 3: I don't want sketty fair three blocks away. I do
[43:57] Speaker 3: want sketty.
[43:58] Speaker 2: Okay, I got you. I'll take that tiny, medium large. Yeah.
[44:04] Speaker 2: I'm just watching Chase in the bottom of just trying
[44:07] Speaker 2: to get Chase's attention. Chase, we need you. I don't
[44:11] Speaker 2: care about the spaghetti on the beach talk.
[44:13] Speaker 4: Yeah, spaghetti on the beach is just another DNC song.
[44:17] Speaker 2: What if it was pizza on the beach?
[44:20] Speaker 3: I want pizza anywhere, anytime. What little Caesars or otherwise?
[44:24] Speaker 2: Yeah, to get upset about. But Joe, he admits to
[44:29] Speaker 2: Tiff that he voted for her. She calls him a dummy.
[44:31] Speaker 2: She said, dude, what the hell? But they hashed it out.
[44:34] Speaker 2: They agreed to never vote for each other again. They
[44:37] Speaker 2: like cheers, their forks, their spaghetti forks, and Joe tells
[44:42] Speaker 2: Tiff that he thinks it should be Devin's and Aubrey.
[44:44] Speaker 2: Tiff likes Aubrey but calls her a dangerous middle player.
[44:48] Speaker 2: Tiff thinks coaching Chrissy or Great Shields because they rub
[44:51] Speaker 2: people the wrong way, and then cut to Chrissy. She's
[44:53] Speaker 2: telling Coach, please just lay low, don't sing, don't haiku,
[44:57] Speaker 2: just be invisible, and she sends Coach to the hammock
[45:00] Speaker 2: where he used to spend the rest of the day.
[45:02] Speaker 2: She caught herself the dragon slayer whisperer. Coach said that
[45:06] Speaker 2: he could whisper a haikup and nobody would know, and
[45:11] Speaker 2: it probably wouldn't even be a haiku. As we learned
[45:14] Speaker 2: last week.
[45:15] Speaker 1: I could whisper a haikup, no one would hear it.
[45:24] Speaker 1: Have a good day, everyone, dude.
[45:32] Speaker 3: I saw a really good show.
[45:37] Speaker 2: Ye brand must have had another fried egg. I had one.
[45:43] Speaker 3: I show up food drunk till one episode.
[45:47] Speaker 2: Yeah. Oh. Coach called it a travesty to quiet the
[45:51] Speaker 2: dragon slayer flare because there's only one dragon slayer in
[45:54] Speaker 2: the history of Survivor and there will never be another one.
[45:57] Speaker 2: But he doesn't know if it was sun Zu, Nietzsche,
[46:00] Speaker 2: or maybe the financial advisor Chris Valeria. I think I'm
[46:03] Speaker 2: saying that right, Vreila. He said, sometimes the essence of
[46:08] Speaker 2: strategy is the mindset to do nothing. Hmm.
[46:13] Speaker 1: I was just happy that he didn't say financial advisor Jeffrey.
[46:17] Speaker 4: Yeah, what if he said financial advisor Dave Ramsey.
[46:22] Speaker 2: You know.
[46:24] Speaker 3: Crazy.
[46:25] Speaker 5: I thought he was gonna say financial advisor Jeffrey Epstein.
[46:30] Speaker 2: That's good.
[46:32] Speaker 4: Was Chase completely checked out or did he not hear
[46:35] Speaker 4: I'm joking.
[46:36] Speaker 2: I'm joking. It's so hard to tell now when you're
[46:39] Speaker 2: saying a joke. But also, I was the one that
[46:40] Speaker 2: made that joke last night in the live chat.
[46:42] Speaker 1: Oh, I'm sorry. I honestly, Chase, I didn't see it,
[46:45] Speaker 1: so I'm sorry for taking your chruck.
[46:47] Speaker 2: No, no, it's okay. That's why I was being funny
[46:50] Speaker 2: and saying it again, because you copied my jokes. I
[46:52] Speaker 2: was copying. Okay, guys, I'm done for today. No, no, no, no,
[47:00] Speaker 2: look at you don't understand Chase is just being funny.
[47:02] Speaker 2: No funny, no, no, I think. Uh I don't get
[47:06] Speaker 2: any respect. Everybody hates me, and uh I sit here
[47:11] Speaker 2: and I try to come up with haikus for everybody,
[47:13] Speaker 2: and no one respects my haikus. Well, and I feel
[47:16] Speaker 2: like when you came up with but I haven't. We
[47:20] Speaker 2: haven't heard the haikus. No, I've been I've been chilling
[47:23] Speaker 2: on the beach. I've been trying to come up with
[47:24] Speaker 2: the haikus. I've been doing my you know, my yoga.
[47:28] Speaker 2: I've been doing my tai chi.
[47:30] Speaker 3: So you're.
[47:33] Speaker 1: You're like, I'm the coach of the podcast this week
[47:36] Speaker 1: is all you're saying.
[47:37] Speaker 2: No, I'm coach, Like I am literally coach. And if
[47:44] Speaker 2: you're literally coached, like a breakaway or I think Chase,
[47:48] Speaker 2: you should go lay down in a hammock and maybe
[47:51] Speaker 2: Christian will rock me.
[47:54] Speaker 4: It's just like one of those things, you know how
[47:55] Speaker 4: like it feels like every kind of uh person who's
[47:58] Speaker 4: a little bit insane start it's claiming their Jesus at
[48:01] Speaker 4: some point.
[48:01] Speaker 2: Is this like that kind of a situation where he's
[48:03] Speaker 2: exactly that, Yeah, I don't know.
[48:06] Speaker 5: Instead of the Messiah complex, Instead of the Messiah complex,
[48:10] Speaker 5: it's the Dragonslayer complex.
[48:12] Speaker 4: Dang, this is I don't know how we're gonna pull
[48:14] Speaker 4: him out of this one.
[48:15] Speaker 2: Uh, Chrissy. After sending Coach to the hammock and demanding
[48:18] Speaker 2: he lay low, Chrissy wants to blindside Rizzo after calling
[48:22] Speaker 2: Aubrey and Devins the middle people who we can't let
[48:25] Speaker 2: skates to the end. Now she wants their help in
[48:27] Speaker 2: blind siding Rizzo.
[48:28] Speaker 3: But what is that?
[48:29] Speaker 2: Who's back the sheriff? Baby Serie is back. She shows up,
[48:35] Speaker 2: She shows everybody her one in two thousand coconut, and
[48:38] Speaker 2: Sarie does what she does best. She flips everything on
[48:40] Speaker 2: its head. Ozzy, he thought the move was to get
[48:42] Speaker 2: out Devon's and Aubrey. Sire explains to him why she
[48:45] Speaker 2: thinks it should be coaching Chrissy, and then cut to
[48:47] Speaker 2: Ozzie in a confessional and he's like, thank God for Sari,
[48:51] Speaker 2: or else I would have voted Devon's in. Aubrey like
[48:53] Speaker 2: an idiot, M I mean Suri truly, Jonathan, you know,
[48:58] Speaker 2: famously this season has said that he doesn't understand why
[49:01] Speaker 2: Syria is considered such a legend.
[49:05] Speaker 5: This episode is the perfect example of why Sirie is
[49:09] Speaker 5: the best social player of all time.
[49:11] Speaker 2: She's away on exile, she.
[49:12] Speaker 5: Comes back immediately everyone's like, Sirie, this is what we're doing.
[49:16] Speaker 2: She goes, no, that's not how it works. Let's do
[49:19] Speaker 2: it this way, and everybody.
[49:20] Speaker 4: Goes ah, you're right.
[49:21] Speaker 2: I'm so stupid.
[49:22] Speaker 3: Thank god Soria is here.
[49:24] Speaker 5: I think PD made a comment last night where he said, uh,
[49:29] Speaker 5: people are gonna start realizing that Sirie is like. They've
[49:33] Speaker 5: waited too long Sore to get it so real. I
[49:36] Speaker 5: think it's too late. I don't think they could vote
[49:38] Speaker 5: Tore out even if they wanted to, because the Azzi
[49:42] Speaker 5: and Rizzo would both need to blind side Sire in
[49:46] Speaker 5: order for Sien to go home. At this point, I
[49:47] Speaker 5: do not see a world where they get the numbers
[49:49] Speaker 5: to send her home.
[49:51] Speaker 2: Yeah, they've waited too long.
[49:53] Speaker 3: No, I think that they can do it.
[49:55] Speaker 2: I think it's possible.
[49:56] Speaker 3: No, No, I honestly do I I don't think it'll be
[49:58] Speaker 3: that hard. I think.
[50:00] Speaker 1: The tough thing is is who's gonna strike first. I
[50:04] Speaker 1: don't think Ozzie's ever gonna flip.
[50:06] Speaker 3: But Rizzo could flip. And I honestly think.
[50:11] Speaker 5: Rizzo, when we watched him play last season, he never
[50:14] Speaker 5: betrayed Savannah, even though it would have been better for
[50:16] Speaker 5: his game to betray him.
[50:19] Speaker 3: I know, I think is too smart.
[50:21] Speaker 1: Rizzo has seen the game too much to know that
[50:23] Speaker 1: you cannot go to the end with Siri and win.
[50:27] Speaker 3: I think he can. You famously can. Siria has never won.
[50:33] Speaker 3: Has she ever been to final?
[50:35] Speaker 2: I think so.
[50:36] Speaker 1: I don't think she's ever been to I don't think
[50:37] Speaker 1: she's ever been to final tribal.
[50:39] Speaker 2: Chase when she was let me two right, let me
[50:45] Speaker 2: look at it.
[50:46] Speaker 3: I just think I think Rizzo's too much of a
[50:48] Speaker 3: student of the game.
[50:51] Speaker 5: He's never reached final tribal. But yeah, she was in
[50:54] Speaker 5: third place and fourth place.
[50:56] Speaker 1: Great, yeah, I I just I think that Rizzo at
[50:59] Speaker 1: some point he there's nothing that Rizzo wants more than
[51:06] Speaker 1: to be one of the all time greats Survivor players.
[51:08] Speaker 3: How do you do that? At some point in the
[51:10] Speaker 3: next couple of weeks.
[51:12] Speaker 1: You decide it's gonna benefit me more to distance myself
[51:16] Speaker 1: from Suriri and vote her out.
[51:17] Speaker 3: I think that time will cut.
[51:19] Speaker 1: I think, and si has proven that at one point,
[51:22] Speaker 1: at some point, she will do that to him.
[51:25] Speaker 2: I'm sure I could see that.
[51:26] Speaker 5: But what I'm thinking is, if there's going to be
[51:29] Speaker 5: any sort of betrayal from Rizzo to Seri, it's that
[51:31] Speaker 5: he puts Syrie up for fire making and that's how
[51:34] Speaker 5: she goes home.
[51:35] Speaker 2: I don't see him voting her out here's what I
[51:38] Speaker 2: think is gonna Happenah, Chase, I know you've seen two
[51:41] Speaker 2: Star Wars movies, so you haven't seen this yet. But
[51:44] Speaker 2: I think it's gonna be a situation where you got
[51:47] Speaker 2: the guy at the bar and Obi Wan is like, no,
[51:50] Speaker 2: you know, you don't want death sticks. You want to
[51:52] Speaker 2: go home and rethink your life. So like Sari, anybody
[51:55] Speaker 2: can have a plan that doesn't benefit her. She's just
[51:57] Speaker 2: gonna wave her hand and then make them vote themselves out.
[52:01] Speaker 2: That's how much power she's gonna have. By the end,
[52:03] Speaker 2: she's gonna be telling people to vote for yourself and
[52:05] Speaker 2: they're gonna go.
[52:06] Speaker 4: I think by the time that Rizzo would try to
[52:10] Speaker 4: make a move that people already are they don't quite
[52:14] Speaker 4: trust him, so I think it would be his death since.
[52:17] Speaker 2: That specially would it'd be way too early. Yeah, it's
[52:21] Speaker 2: incredible he's made that's the thing about.
[52:24] Speaker 1: Yeah, it's either it's either too early to vote her
[52:26] Speaker 1: out or too late to vote her out somehow like
[52:28] Speaker 1: that's the magic of Si.
[52:30] Speaker 2: Yeah, they should have voted her out first. That was
[52:32] Speaker 2: their best.
[52:32] Speaker 5: Shot of I mean, she's in the game too it
[52:35] Speaker 5: because I mean, looking at who's left. They don't have
[52:38] Speaker 5: the votes to take Surrey home unless Ozzie and Rizzo
[52:41] Speaker 5: both want to.
[52:42] Speaker 2: Take her out.
[52:44] Speaker 5: Because Joe and Stephanie and Jandre the Giant, they're slowly
[52:48] Speaker 5: getting picked off one by one, that whole strong honor
[52:51] Speaker 5: and integrity alliance.
[52:55] Speaker 2: Yeah, it's true. Sorry, I was just looking up, like,
[52:57] Speaker 2: what's that song? Like the music in me? Is that
[53:00] Speaker 2: a thing?
[53:02] Speaker 3: Yeah?
[53:03] Speaker 2: What if we made got the Magic of Serrin? Oh,
[53:08] Speaker 2: because that's the mandin for marine m hmm, okay, just
[53:12] Speaker 2: workshop and stuff, tiny medium large.
[53:16] Speaker 5: Hey, hey, don't bring up to little Caesars joke, guys
[53:19] Speaker 5: if it's a bad joke, because this is a good joke.
[53:22] Speaker 2: I did it is It's just something that's fun to say. Now. Yeah,
[53:26] Speaker 2: a little tiny medium large in the com you know
[53:29] Speaker 2: what you're doing, You know what you're doing. I thought
[53:31] Speaker 2: it was a crazy combo chase. I will be on
[53:33] Speaker 2: a stub chase.
[53:35] Speaker 3: I'm getting a little Caesars for lunch. So well done, brother.
[53:40] Speaker 2: That's what we call it. Influencerluen. Genuinely though, guys, it
[53:45] Speaker 2: was not a bad joke. I think it's a good
[53:48] Speaker 2: joke chase.
[53:48] Speaker 5: Because Christian Yell's the the sizes and so chase because
[53:55] Speaker 5: I'm gonna.
[53:58] Speaker 4: I don't know how else to tell you this, but
[54:00] Speaker 4: I'm giving you a hard time because I'm considered to
[54:03] Speaker 4: be one of the greatest villains of all time.
[54:04] Speaker 2: It's whatever. So I mean the fact that you had
[54:09] Speaker 2: fair Play do your announcement for you about the dead
[54:12] Speaker 2: Cats situation. It does kind of submit and submit you
[54:16] Speaker 2: as a top man. That's some of us.
[54:22] Speaker 4: Some of us have aspirations, you know.
[54:24] Speaker 2: Yeah, where was I at? So Ozzy he's happy to
[54:30] Speaker 2: go for Coach because of the Day One thing. Rizzo.
[54:33] Speaker 2: He also wanted to go after Aubrey and Devins earlier
[54:36] Speaker 2: in the episode. But Chrissy is speaking to Siri and
[54:39] Speaker 2: she throws out Rizzo's name, and so retells Rizzo, and
[54:43] Speaker 2: Rizzo is chomping at the bit as they say to
[54:46] Speaker 2: vote out that.
[54:50] Speaker 4: You know what, I love it when they're chomping at
[54:52] Speaker 4: the bit.
[54:53] Speaker 2: Oh, they're chomping at the bit. But here's the thing.
[54:56] Speaker 2: Everybody knows that Joe mustn't be lied to. So if
[55:00] Speaker 2: they're going to vote out Coach and Chrissy, they have
[55:03] Speaker 2: to try to get him on board. Joe doesn't like this.
[55:06] Speaker 2: In a confessional. He said, I hear the plan is
[55:09] Speaker 2: going to be coaching, Chrissy. This isn't good. This isn't good,
[55:13] Speaker 2: This isn't good. He said it three times.
[55:16] Speaker 3: With his eyes just yeah.
[55:20] Speaker 2: So I'm working hard to get this thing back on
[55:22] Speaker 2: Aubrey and Devons. And then Steph agrees. Chrissy tells coach,
[55:27] Speaker 2: we're voting Aubrey and Devons. Joe is imploring Rizzo to
[55:30] Speaker 2: vote for Aubrey and Devans, and then we've seen Devons.
[55:32] Speaker 2: He's scared, he's worrying, he's worried about how much traction
[55:35] Speaker 2: that his name is getting, and he might just do
[55:39] Speaker 2: the idle thing if he feels like he needs to.
[55:42] Speaker 3: So what is the what's the current count?
[55:44] Speaker 2: PD?
[55:45] Speaker 1: Do you have that in front of you log of
[55:47] Speaker 1: people that we think going into tribal are voting for
[55:52] Speaker 1: uh Riz I'm sorry, uh Devons and Aubrey uh And
[55:58] Speaker 1: then coaching Chrissy, do we have.
[56:00] Speaker 3: Do you have those numbers?
[56:01] Speaker 2: I don't have the numbers, but I can just rattle off, yeah,
[56:04] Speaker 2: like what At this point, the best guess would be
[56:09] Speaker 2: that Jan Dre is going to vote for Aubrey and Devons.
[56:13] Speaker 2: Chrissy coach because we don't know he's gonna do the
[56:15] Speaker 2: shot in the dark. And then Stephanie and then Joe. Yeah, no,
[56:20] Speaker 2: Joe voted. Joe voted for coaching.
[56:21] Speaker 1: We know how he votes, right, I'm saying what I
[56:25] Speaker 1: what I still don't know Chase on.
[56:26] Speaker 3: What I'm trying to figure out is if like how
[56:28] Speaker 3: much like did he really need to do the idle
[56:31] Speaker 3: thing need to.
[56:33] Speaker 2: That's what I want to like, Yeah, that's five. And
[56:36] Speaker 2: then Rizzo is a maybe, but he's voting with Seresa.
[56:39] Speaker 2: We pretty much knew that he was going to vote
[56:41] Speaker 2: for coaching Chrissy. So we're at tribal now, and Aubrey
[56:46] Speaker 2: said that her and Devons they're tied to each other.
[56:49] Speaker 2: They have an umbilical cord. Devin said, I'm the baby,
[56:53] Speaker 2: so glad he clarified.
[56:57] Speaker 4: They could have looked like a Taylor Swift reference have
[56:59] Speaker 4: been like tiny invisible string you know.
[57:02] Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, guys, did you like my joke? I
[57:07] Speaker 2: did like it? Yeah, Okay. He thought it was a
[57:09] Speaker 2: great contribution. Hey, Jonathan, great contribution, thank you. So Coach
[57:17] Speaker 2: talked about how because he had to lay low, he
[57:20] Speaker 2: was able to see the betrayal, oozing out of pores
[57:24] Speaker 2: and fingertips chattering chaos around him. I don't I don't
[57:29] Speaker 2: know what any of that meant. But now let's get
[57:32] Speaker 2: to the good part. Joe is answering a question from
[57:35] Speaker 2: Jeff Devon's. He gets the fading in and out of
[57:37] Speaker 2: consciousness at it, and then Jeff asks devns if the
[57:41] Speaker 2: twist changes how he approached tribal and Devon's who's feeling
[57:45] Speaker 2: nervous and unfortunately he doesn't have an idol, he says,
[57:48] Speaker 2: but he has a clue for one and he just
[57:50] Speaker 2: hasn't been able to get it. And then Devin shoots up,
[57:54] Speaker 2: he grabs the idol that him and Christian planeted weeks ago,
[57:57] Speaker 2: and he says he's going to keep him in all
[57:58] Speaker 2: resafe tonight.
[57:59] Speaker 3: Yeah.
[58:00] Speaker 1: I mean, my only criticism of the play is like,
[58:03] Speaker 1: maybe look behind a couple of rocks before walking directly
[58:08] Speaker 1: to the rock that it is behind, Like.
[58:11] Speaker 2: That maybe he did and they just wanted to make
[58:13] Speaker 2: it quicker.
[58:14] Speaker 3: Yeah, it's possible.
[58:16] Speaker 1: I just like, if I'm sitting there and I see
[58:18] Speaker 1: him say I have a clue for one, and then like,
[58:22] Speaker 1: unless the clue is there's an idol behind the back
[58:25] Speaker 1: left corner of the fire pits, move the rock like
[58:30] Speaker 1: I'd like. The clues are never that's easy if there
[58:35] Speaker 1: was a real clue.
[58:35] Speaker 2: So I would have the shock of it.
[58:37] Speaker 4: Though, is where people probably wouldn't question it all that
[58:40] Speaker 4: much because they just see him get up, and there's
[58:44] Speaker 4: so many thoughts of like, well, he couldn't have planted
[58:46] Speaker 4: this because it's tribal.
[58:49] Speaker 3: How would he have.
[58:49] Speaker 2: Planned it right?
[58:50] Speaker 4: So they're probably not thinking all that hard about like
[58:53] Speaker 4: is it fake?
[58:55] Speaker 2: And I haven't until they started to. Yeah.
[58:57] Speaker 5: I have two questions for you, guys. I want to
[58:59] Speaker 5: get your opinions on both of these things. The first one, uh,
[59:03] Speaker 5: do you think that this was if Devon? Would this
[59:09] Speaker 5: have been cooler if Devin saved himself instead of just
[59:12] Speaker 5: wasting the idol?
[59:14] Speaker 2: Or do you think it was still super sick regardless.
[59:17] Speaker 4: I mean, it obviously would have been cool if that
[59:20] Speaker 4: was more of the deciding factor.
[59:23] Speaker 2: Of the vote. I think it's yeah, we can't tell.
[59:32] Speaker 5: My second question is what do you who? Who do
[59:35] Speaker 5: you think is a better Survivor player? Someone who plays
[59:41] Speaker 5: an idol the second they think that they're in trouble,
[59:44] Speaker 5: or someone like Rizzo last season, who has an idol
[59:48] Speaker 5: and and doesn't and keeps it for way too long Devin's.
[59:52] Speaker 5: This was the first time Devin seemed like he was
[59:55] Speaker 5: in trouble and he immediately panicked and played his idol
[59:57] Speaker 5: even when he.
[59:58] Speaker 2: Didn't need to.
[1:00:00] Speaker 5: Do you think that that's smart because it's like, well,
[1:00:02] Speaker 5: it's better to be safe than sorry than to go home.
[1:00:05] Speaker 5: Or do we respect players who are like willing to
[1:00:07] Speaker 5: take a risk Like the other week when Aubrey's holding
[1:00:10] Speaker 5: her idol in her pocket.
[1:00:12] Speaker 2: I think that for.
[1:00:13] Speaker 4: Him it was smart because he also likes Aubrey.
[1:00:18] Speaker 2: And they would have both gone home.
[1:00:19] Speaker 4: So I think for him, if it had been just
[1:00:22] Speaker 4: a regular week where everybody was at risk and he
[1:00:24] Speaker 4: wasn't tied to somebody, then I think he might have
[1:00:29] Speaker 4: waited it out.
[1:00:30] Speaker 1: Yeah, to me, it's a little bit like those two
[1:00:33] Speaker 1: scenarios are different enough to where it's hard to compare
[1:00:37] Speaker 1: because like Rizzo was using the idol to get votes
[1:00:42] Speaker 1: off of him without playing it, which is an impressive mood.
[1:00:45] Speaker 1: But he but Devin's did the same thing, but he didn't.
[1:00:50] Speaker 1: He did, but he didn't have a real idol to.
[1:00:53] Speaker 2: You, right, So like he had to.
[1:00:56] Speaker 1: Create something out of thin air, which was super it right,
[1:01:01] Speaker 1: and so like, it's just hard to compare those two
[1:01:04] Speaker 1: things in my mind for some reason, because it's like
[1:01:06] Speaker 1: what Rizzo did, he never he never felt like he
[1:01:10] Speaker 1: truly needed to play it.
[1:01:12] Speaker 3: So I don't know, you know what, both both both
[1:01:17] Speaker 3: plays are great.
[1:01:18] Speaker 2: In my mind, I say, Chase quit being a nerd
[1:01:23] Speaker 2: and thinking about was this the.
[1:01:24] Speaker 3: Do the robot things?
[1:01:26] Speaker 2: The robot thing?
[1:01:27] Speaker 3: Instead?
[1:01:27] Speaker 2: Rob, I say, this is the I.
[1:01:30] Speaker 6: Literally just wanted to talk about for a.
[1:01:33] Speaker 2: Second nerd Robot.
[1:01:38] Speaker 5: This is why people don't like it when PD's on
[1:01:40] Speaker 5: the episode.
[1:01:41] Speaker 2: Hey shut up, robot Nerd. Here's what I don't know.
[1:01:45] Speaker 2: I thought it was a cool move, but I don't
[1:01:46] Speaker 2: know if it was statistically the most optimal.
[1:01:53] Speaker 5: What you think is a better player, someone who holds
[1:01:56] Speaker 5: onto an advantage, or it takes a big risk of
[1:01:59] Speaker 5: not playing it some pics and plays.
[1:02:01] Speaker 3: This is what I will say.
[1:02:03] Speaker 1: This is what I will say to be to be honest.
[1:02:07] Speaker 1: To me, what Rizzo did with his idol is more
[1:02:11] Speaker 1: impressive than what Devons did with his multiple idols the
[1:02:16] Speaker 1: season that he played, Like, it's more impressive for me
[1:02:18] Speaker 1: to have one idol and to be able to use
[1:02:20] Speaker 1: it against people without actually playing it than it is
[1:02:23] Speaker 1: to constantly be able to find idols.
[1:02:26] Speaker 2: Okay, that's cool. Yeah, that's what I agree. Chase, sincerely,
[1:02:30] Speaker 2: sorry for saying shut up Nerd because no, because because
[1:02:38] Speaker 2: Chase is going to run out, he's gonna quit the podcast,
[1:02:41] Speaker 2: I have to do a little damage. But I was
[1:02:43] Speaker 2: being combative on purpose. He shut up.
[1:02:47] Speaker 4: Hey, look I'm gonna say it too because I'm the villain.
[1:02:51] Speaker 4: Shut up Nerd.
[1:02:54] Speaker 2: But but the point of saying shut up Nerd was
[1:02:57] Speaker 2: to circle back to it was just awesome that Devon's
[1:03:00] Speaker 2: did this and had this idea at all and actually
[1:03:03] Speaker 2: went through with it.
[1:03:06] Speaker 4: I thought, uh, what did you think of Devon's lie
[1:03:10] Speaker 4: about to Aubrey? But then also like he had to
[1:03:14] Speaker 4: lie a second time where they were like, can you
[1:03:16] Speaker 4: show us the idol? Like how do you feel like he.
[1:03:18] Speaker 2: Played those situations off? Do the robot voice? And you answered? Chase, Well, I.
[1:03:23] Speaker 5: Would answer, but I don't want to get called a
[1:03:25] Speaker 5: nerd for going too deep in.
[1:03:26] Speaker 3: I asked the question because I wasn't paying attention. Basically
[1:03:34] Speaker 3: asked was.
[1:03:38] Speaker 6: We were all robots and we're all cyborgs. Do we
[1:03:42] Speaker 6: still have some sort of soul that would be the
[1:03:46] Speaker 6: obsessment survivor or would it be a purely analytical love
[1:03:49] Speaker 6: of the game.
[1:03:50] Speaker 3: That's interesting.
[1:03:52] Speaker 4: I was asking that because Chase had messaged me and
[1:03:54] Speaker 4: said he was considering dating chat GPT model.
[1:03:57] Speaker 5: So yeah, yeah, I'm thinking about becoming a Mormon, and
[1:04:00] Speaker 5: so I'm gonna I'm gonna do the multiple wives thing,
[1:04:03] Speaker 5: but I feel ethically that that's wrong.
[1:04:05] Speaker 2: So I'm gonna do Chad Gibt instead of a real
[1:04:07] Speaker 2: person chasing his husband Claude. Yep, yeah, me and Grock,
[1:04:14] Speaker 2: Me and Groc might take things a little further. Yeah, Okay,
[1:04:18] Speaker 2: So Devin's lie to Aubrey, we'll see if everybody wants
[1:04:21] Speaker 2: to see the thing, then that his lies, like the
[1:04:25] Speaker 2: the whole thing is gonna blow up in his face
[1:04:26] Speaker 2: pretty quick.
[1:04:27] Speaker 5: Well, And that was the lie to Aubrey, was that
[1:04:30] Speaker 5: he couldn't actually play the idol that night because it
[1:04:34] Speaker 5: was supposed to be found in secret, so it doesn't
[1:04:37] Speaker 5: activate until the next tribal.
[1:04:38] Speaker 2: I thought it was a good lie.
[1:04:40] Speaker 5: I thought that was a very good lie. And you
[1:04:41] Speaker 5: could tell he had that in the back pocket. He
[1:04:43] Speaker 5: planned in case anyone asked him about it, unlike.
[1:04:46] Speaker 2: Coach earlier in this episode.
[1:04:49] Speaker 5: Uh, but you can tell he did panic when Stephanie
[1:04:51] Speaker 5: asked to see it. Yeah, and he said, no, no,
[1:04:54] Speaker 5: knowledge is power. I'm not showing it to Yeah.
[1:04:57] Speaker 2: He said the name of another advantage to show.
[1:05:00] Speaker 3: Yeah, can I ask you a question?
[1:05:02] Speaker 2: No, it's just power. Shot in the dark. You know, Hey, Stephanie,
[1:05:05] Speaker 2: steal a vote.
[1:05:06] Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, all right, steal.
[1:05:08] Speaker 5: An election, Stephanie, get.
[1:05:12] Speaker 3: On my level.
[1:05:14] Speaker 1: There is a moment where everybody that's around Christian turns
[1:05:19] Speaker 1: to Christian and Christian goes, I'm still voting devons.
[1:05:24] Speaker 2: Yes, this was that. This confused me.
[1:05:28] Speaker 5: But if you saw the same thing and it and
[1:05:31] Speaker 5: it was clarified for me in the chat last night.
[1:05:34] Speaker 2: So I was confused.
[1:05:35] Speaker 5: I said, wouldn't he want to lean in to that
[1:05:38] Speaker 5: idol being?
[1:05:39] Speaker 1: I was like, Oh, he's gonna stick it. He's gonna
[1:05:41] Speaker 1: be like that looks like a real idol to me.
[1:05:44] Speaker 1: We should maybe switch our votes or something like that.
[1:05:46] Speaker 5: But what I but what I was told by the
[1:05:48] Speaker 5: people in the chat last night was he he was
[1:05:52] Speaker 5: lying because they were The plan all along was to
[1:05:54] Speaker 5: vote Coach out. And so they didn't want to tell.
[1:05:57] Speaker 5: They didn't want coach at all to find out that
[1:05:59] Speaker 5: he might be the because then he could play his
[1:06:00] Speaker 5: shot in the dark or whatever.
[1:06:02] Speaker 2: Yeah.
[1:06:02] Speaker 3: No, it was a great.
[1:06:03] Speaker 5: Move by Christian, But I would agree I was very confused,
[1:06:07] Speaker 5: right because what.
[1:06:08] Speaker 1: If they listened to him and they're like, okay, he
[1:06:12] Speaker 1: says to vote.
[1:06:13] Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying.
[1:06:13] Speaker 5: When when we were talking about this earlier and I said,
[1:06:15] Speaker 5: I don't think anyone's vote was swayed by this play.
[1:06:19] Speaker 5: I think they all went in with the plan of
[1:06:21] Speaker 5: taking out coach.
[1:06:22] Speaker 2: All right, that's yeah, because.
[1:06:24] Speaker 1: Coach was in too close proximity for Christian to be like, oh, okay.
[1:06:31] Speaker 3: Got it, thanks guys, I'm out of here.
[1:06:33] Speaker 4: Coach is going out. Will he end up going back home?
[1:06:42] Speaker 2: That's it? That's eight eight. Wait, I've lost track of
[1:06:47] Speaker 2: the haikus. So you did five seven?
[1:06:51] Speaker 3: I did eight?
[1:06:52] Speaker 2: Yeah?
[1:06:52] Speaker 3: Why did seven? Five?
[1:06:53] Speaker 2: Seven?
[1:06:53] Speaker 3: So we're both you.
[1:06:54] Speaker 2: Can do a coach haiku and just do whatever you
[1:06:56] Speaker 2: want to do. Yeah, okay, So will he go bach home?
[1:07:00] Speaker 2: Real coaches? Six?
[1:07:02] Speaker 3: Yeah?
[1:07:02] Speaker 4: A coach coup is six eight five okay, coach coup
[1:07:05] Speaker 4: okay six eight five Okay, here we go six eight five.
[1:07:08] Speaker 4: Is Coach going back home? It's quite possible that he is.
[1:07:20] Speaker 4: Let's go and count votes here.
[1:07:24] Speaker 2: We got great contribution. Uh yeah, so Rick, he plunged
[1:07:31] Speaker 2: everything into chaos. Everybody's whispering. D's over there loving it.
[1:07:35] Speaker 3: It's a live tribal.
[1:07:36] Speaker 2: Season fifty baby.
[1:07:39] Speaker 3: No one loves a live tribal more than d D.
[1:07:42] Speaker 2: He's like the live trible d was freaking out. And
[1:07:45] Speaker 2: then speaking of freaking out, Rizzo walks over to Devns
[1:07:49] Speaker 2: just to say, hey, man, I want to say six
[1:07:52] Speaker 2: of those things. You're a devil, and then Jeff called
[1:07:55] Speaker 2: him out for being a fanboy.
[1:07:57] Speaker 5: Yeah, he said, thought it was so weird. Is then
[1:08:00] Speaker 5: Rizzo just started cussing Jeff out. He was like, you
[1:08:02] Speaker 5: know what, Jeff, nice, that's that.
[1:08:11] Speaker 3: That's comedy.
[1:08:12] Speaker 2: Chase nice post nice nice.
[1:08:16] Speaker 3: We'll get three million heads.
[1:08:21] Speaker 2: So Stephanie, oh yeah, we talked about that. Stephanie wanted
[1:08:24] Speaker 2: to see the idol. Rick said, no, you don't need
[1:08:28] Speaker 2: to see it, and then Coach quotes Magellan and it's
[1:08:31] Speaker 2: time to vote. Rick does not play his idol because
[1:08:34] Speaker 2: it's not real. But you know, he told Aubrey it
[1:08:37] Speaker 2: can't be played until next time and then Coach plays
[1:08:39] Speaker 2: is shot in the dark. Chrissy and Coach are not safe.
[1:08:42] Speaker 2: And after that they receive all the votes except for
[1:08:45] Speaker 2: two of them. And as Coach was walking to get
[1:08:48] Speaker 2: his torch, Rizzo said you changed my life and Emily
[1:08:52] Speaker 2: rolled her eyes on him.
[1:08:53] Speaker 4: This is the best moment of the episode to me,
[1:08:55] Speaker 4: definitely better than Syria and the coconuts. But there was
[1:08:58] Speaker 4: this moment where you just realized, like that Emily is
[1:09:02] Speaker 4: not on board with anything that's going on. I just
[1:09:07] Speaker 4: her rolling her eyes as Rizzo is having the best
[1:09:11] Speaker 4: moment of his life.
[1:09:13] Speaker 2: It was so funny to me. It was cinema.
[1:09:16] Speaker 5: If you got voted out a survivor and as you're
[1:09:18] Speaker 5: leaving someone that voted you out goes you changed my life.
[1:09:22] Speaker 2: What would you respond with?
[1:09:24] Speaker 4: If I was Coach, I would do a haiku back
[1:09:26] Speaker 4: to him. But if I was I would have said, yeah.
[1:09:29] Speaker 2: Cool, so my torch geits snuffed.
[1:09:32] Speaker 5: I'm leaving someone that voted me out, goes, you changed
[1:09:35] Speaker 5: my life. I would turn around and go apparently not
[1:09:38] Speaker 5: enough and then just keep walking into the darkness.
[1:09:40] Speaker 3: Nice.
[1:09:42] Speaker 1: Can I ask an NERD strategy question PD, is that allowed.
[1:09:47] Speaker 2: I'll allow it.
[1:09:48] Speaker 1: Nerd p's the Nerd Police today. Chrissy voted for Emily.
[1:09:57] Speaker 2: Is that right? Weird Chrissy wanted Chrissy threw out earlier
[1:10:03] Speaker 2: in the episode that she wanted to blindside Rizzo and
[1:10:05] Speaker 2: so I'm pretty sure she was the vote on Rizzo
[1:10:07] Speaker 2: and Emily.
[1:10:08] Speaker 1: She she was, but it's just like, if you think
[1:10:11] Speaker 1: that there's votes coming on, you vote for the other
[1:10:15] Speaker 1: two names that are being thrown out with.
[1:10:17] Speaker 2: Yeah, it was weird, weird play.
[1:10:20] Speaker 3: I don't understand why she did that at all.
[1:10:22] Speaker 2: She thought maybe she had enough support to get out
[1:10:25] Speaker 2: Rizzo and Emily.
[1:10:26] Speaker 1: I guess people really lied to her that that was
[1:10:28] Speaker 1: a possible thing.
[1:10:30] Speaker 3: That's interesting.
[1:10:32] Speaker 5: Last thing here, we've seen a lot of shot in
[1:10:34] Speaker 5: the Darks played this season so far more than usual.
[1:10:39] Speaker 2: No hits. When we get one, it's gonna be awesome.
[1:10:44] Speaker 2: We're not going to them. Why because we've already had
[1:10:49] Speaker 2: three played. Do you think they're gonna play more of them?
[1:10:51] Speaker 2: And if some of the one and six is gonna hit,
[1:10:54] Speaker 2: I mean I would think so.
[1:10:56] Speaker 5: I mean, as we get towards the end game here,
[1:10:58] Speaker 5: people are gonna be panicking trying to save themselves.
[1:11:01] Speaker 2: You know, I don't think we get a successful one, though,
[1:11:05] Speaker 2: that'd be cool. You want to let's hey, let's all
[1:11:07] Speaker 2: make a monetary bet. Sure, I.
[1:11:11] Speaker 1: Bet one hot ready pizza at.
[1:11:15] Speaker 3: Okay, we will not get it yet. Okay.
[1:11:18] Speaker 5: So you're on the side that you don't get a hit.
[1:11:20] Speaker 5: I'm voting to get a hit.
[1:11:22] Speaker 2: I'm voting that we don't get a hit. So it's
[1:11:26] Speaker 2: three okay, So it's me versus you three.
[1:11:28] Speaker 5: So if I if there's a hit, you have to buy.
[1:11:31] Speaker 2: Me a pizza.
[1:11:32] Speaker 5: But if there's not, I have to buy each of
[1:11:34] Speaker 5: you a hot and ready pizza.
[1:11:35] Speaker 3: What's your preference? Tiny? Medium?
[1:11:38] Speaker 2: Fuck? All right? This has been making the merge.
