That's Pat. I give it a shot I'm Dylan, that's Pat. Hi, give it a shot.

Patreon.com slash another podcast network for The Traitors! Our favorite show. It's so good. APS, PMZ. All the stuff is there. Video from other shows. The best part about Patreon is that we get to interact with people more often. That's honestly my favorite part. I have to tell you this though. I didn't realize how many wimpos we had over there. I thought when you were behind the paywall, they didn't get offended by anything.

I'm constantly reading comments like, I can't believe you said that. How long have you been listening to us? That's why it's Patriot. It's a little incendiary. Okay, we got to get into the show. That's right. Below deck. Dan Honda! Um, okay, we got to get in the show. That's right.

Below deck. Dan Under! How are you feeling? About the show? Yeah. I'm enjoying this season. I really am. It's fantastic.

I'm going to miss Chef Anthony. I, I, it's fun watching someone you, you despise. Yeah. Um, he will be missed, kinda. I don't know how you got to talk like that about him. He's just a young child. Get out of here. He's a douchebag. Although I will give it to him and we'll talk about it.

So many of us have been in jobs that eat away at our soul. And what do we do? We stay in them. We have anxiety attacks on the drive home and we tell our spouses, I can't believe I'm still here over and over and over again. He acted on it. Acted on it. You got to give him I'll give him some credit cake of that. Yeah. Yeah, but I'd say his own problems were his own Listen we got to get into our Okay, okay. I like the episode. I had no idea as a boss and you could just say fuck it Listen, we got to get into our knots. Okay.

Okay. I like the episode. I had no idea as a boss and you could just say, fuck it, let's go hit a bar. I like that. I hadn't seen that before. Yeah. This is breaking some conventions that we've had on this show before. Yeah.

Hundo P. Hundo P. The, I guess the, the throuple romance between Marina and Zarina and Weon. That's gonna be fun. That is gonna be fun. Harry, go Harry. Oh yeah. Let me tell you something.

As a cast member or casting a director, you're like, wow, we cast him because he was a cute, nice guy. Little did I know, he was a little back channeler. He'd be going for the big P. He shot his shot. What do you mean the big P? You know, the- Does that stand for the big puss?

Yeah. Oh my god. He went for big red. Wow. He shot his shot. Wow. Very successful. And then he played hard to get.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, you got to. I'm really enjoying him. Yeah. So, overall, fun season. It's a show I enjoy watching and and I enjoy talking about it. I get paid for it too. I'm going to give it 90 blindfolds. Okay. Um, you know, we love Serena. Yes. When I say that, you know, something bad's coming. Yes, I do. Yeah. You know, we love Serena. You know, we love Serena. Serena is on Shutter Island right now. She's hearing voices. Yeah. Okay, the stress of the boat is

anthropomorphizing the walls, the pots, and the pans, and they're screaming at her and telling her that she's not good enough. And what that translates into is lunch lady slop for high paying guests. Oh, don don't jump ahead I believe you're reviewing her dinner. Well well we'll get to it. Yeah you know next time I go on a yacht and I get dinner I want something you'd serve at a fifth graders birthday party. Okay so not just that there are the breakdowns the tears this is charter two. We have to tell the walls that they're just walls. Okay and we have to namaste our way through the rest of the season because we can't lose Serena. Serena's one of the heartbeats of this show okay.

Eric what a gift. Eric Rock. What a gift to us. I love guys that wear Livestrong bracelets with no excuses! Who know women better than they do. That's my favorite! And the irony of that, the girl that he's dating is over in the corner, eight feet away, telling other people what a complete douchebag he is. For those that can't do, teach. Right, right. So, a hundred pots. Last time on Below Deck, right. So 100 pots. Last time on

below deck Harry ripped his thumb off. And Anthony was packing his bags. And that's where we pick up. Anthony is executed. Yeah, by Captain hot ass. He makes the rounds. And the rounds and like we mentioned he is a rat fuck but life is too short to clean pots and pans that are talking to the head chef on a boat you don't want to be on. I feel he got talked into coming on to this show and he probably pushed back quite a bit and they probably might have promised him something that was not delivered when he showed up there because he seemed to bump heads with her immediately. Yeah.

I think two things happened. One, he... There's the, the, the, the, the bear culture surrounding food and kitchens has turned chefs not only into sex addicts and drug addicts and thrill seekers, but also narcissists. So the the siren song of growing the Instagram being maybe like a Thomas Straker one day. What with his canals and one pot meals, you know, maybe he could be internet sensation. I think he could. But the other thing is I think that they they knew that Anthony was more

traditionally competent in like in cooking than Serena who is more Competent and experienced with the world of being a yacht. So that was always gonna be a friction Yes, because he never could have sustained all of his compressed watermelon bullshit now But they knew that that was gonna be contentious and here's something else noteworthy He was only a dick to her now that doesn't mean that the young man gets away with being a dick to his superior But when he leaves the boat there were some heartfelt. Goodbye. Yeah. Yeah, not to her not to her I believe Brianna said you know what keep killing it And I think she was referring to that octopus that he burned to every inch of its life. Well, he drowned it

again. Yeah. So, um, Eric has a work holic. He dawns the aforementioned Livestrong bracelets and start screaming at people on zoom. And that's when we cut over to the ladies who, uh, I think openly hate him. Yeah, they softly who I think openly hate him. Yeah they think softly but they openly hate him. They think he's fucking obnoxious. Let me I have some quotes here from him at this self-help seminar that I assume people paid thousands of dollars for. He said when you see an opportunity you take it. You can't pass it by because your competitors sure that is hell will take it. It's a masterclass in

the fucking obvious. And I guess that's what these things are. Can I tell you something? I don't like this bottle of water I got today. Eternal, naturally alkaline spring water. The bottle is not a convenient shape for cup holders and whatnot. Isn't this stupid? Isn't this a stupid bottle of water? Gosh, yeah All right. Well, I was gonna say yeah his girlfriend talks shit about him And I want to say this to Eric Rock because I think he loves to hear himself talk We would love to hear you on the pod because I'd like to know how it is. Oh, no, actually I was gonna say why don't we have his girlfriend on no, I'd love to have him on honestly, dude

My work-life balance is so out of whack. My my tits are getting so big, I just can't stop eating and and I really need a man to help me be more fucking alpha. Because that's, that's what all of us are called to do at the end of the day, you know, I also want to ask him how he can do steroids and Adderall and not have a heart attack. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He can't. It'll take him out one day, but hopefully he changes his ways. So we on went rogue and told Marina she could go scuba diving. Now Nino, the human trafficker is going to keep watch of the boat while they all go on an excursion. There are claims, oh and quick, Adair, wipe your ass with a sweat rag.

That's right. Now, Dill, well, we have a little Sea Rat history here. Do we really? Oh, yes, yes, yes. Oh, wow. Because she talks about scuba diving. Oh, well, it's brief. I'm not somewhat, Barnacles might not even consider it the Sea Rat history.

She says she found her love for diving and they put a little cute picture up with her dad and her when she was a little girl. Uh-huh. And because her dad used to take her and she never thought she'd dive again after her dad was sodomized by a dolphin. But, uh, you can't turn back on a passion, Dylan. No, that didn't happen. Her story sucked and, uh, was, wasn't even worth mentioning. I wonder if you could actually get sodomized by dolphins are worse than P Diddy and you know, baby oil. No, I don't think so. P Diddy was able to tap into the superpower of human

beings with language and kind of navigating the emotional waves of manipulating young runaways. You know, dolphins can't really do that. All they can do is fuck. Well, have you ever seen when they have those dolphin petting areas where you have a bunch of filthy yucky normies swimming in with their little their little shoulder pads on and the dolphins swim around? Yeah, oh my god! A dolphin will hook you with his big dong penis. You 100% could get sodomized by a dolphin. Have you ever seen a dolphin penis? I have. Oh my god. Oh yeah, they hook on to you.

It looks like a goddamn javelin. I've never seen anything like that. Are you? Wowza, man. Yeah, man. Told ya. Watch out, P-Daddy. Poor Marina's dad. Imagine if a dolphin got invited to one of his parties. Oh my goodness. man. Told you. Watch out, P Daddy. Poor Marine has got invited to one of his parties. Oh my goodness. I want the record deal but I don't want it this much. Is that fake? You know, you can't trust what you see on the internet these days. My goodness gracious. Well, anyways, dolphins are cute little deviants. But yeah, there are clams in the excursion.

There are things that look like rocks, but aren't rocks. They're water aliens. Live coral. Yeah, I know they don't do anything. Like they're nice, you know? Some sting you. They just kind of creep me out. I don't like anything really down there. Yeah.

Getting less and less. You know, I used to be more of a water kid and I'm not a water kid anymore. You know, do you want to go down there and look at all that stuff? No. I'm also very afraid of the gear. Yeah. Yeah, I can't be trusted with this gear. I don't know how to work this. I'm not going in the ocean and I'm not going skydiving.

Yeah. Gosh. Get in the comments, let us know. What about? I'm not sure. So, uh, let us know. What about I'm not sure. So Harry gets back. Well first I should say Marina is very, very grateful that we honed let her do this. Oh yeah. Very grateful.

And she also has a perfect name for her passion. So anyways, Harry gets back, he got a text from Big Red, and he texts Big Red back, and he throws a little kiss at the end of the text. Oh yes, yes, yes. Just X. Come on, you remember you first started dating Cece. I remember, I'd look at a text that was gonna be an answer

that was three words, and I'd be like, I gotta make sure this is perfect. Yeah. Oh my God. I gotta win her over. My God, when I was in the early days of courting my wife had a blackberry. And when you had a blackberry and you got a text there was a red light that went off on top of the phone and I used to set my phone

down and just walk away and then peel back like a crazy person and just look at it to see if the red light had gone off. I mean young love is so cute. Isn't it? It's so cute. All right, so well, Harry gets back immediately goes in the kitchen. He kind of like ices Brianna and then he hugs Zarina. Long time friend, Zarina. Yeah. And that gets Brianna a little jealous. And it's that right level of jealousy. Yeah, because you can't commit too much to this, right? You got to do it,

then you got to get back. You have to reassure, you know what I mean? We're players. We've done this before. You know what I mean? Did it for 22 years. Someone say too long. He's, yep, many. But he's told that Anthony is leaving, and he is all of us.

He goes, kind of like Michael Bluth asking about Ann. He's like, he's gone? OK. Nice knowing you. So Peach Tea Infused with Mint greets the gang, Kind of like Michael Bluth asking about Anne, you know, he's like he's gone. Okay Nice knowing you so peach tea infused with mint greets the gang and we get to a very big night Jason will be dining with them. We're gonna have some French onion soup. We're gonna have some steak. It's a French evening It's sexy Monte Carlo I don't know if this is a Sea Rat history, but Laura I don't know if this is a Sea Rat history, but Laura, yeah, so she talks about the dinner theme, which is Monte Carlo, and then she reflects back on where she got her love for taping decorations from the 99 cent store

to poles on a boat. It's from her mother. Yeah, long tradition over there in the family. Gaudi wealth is so spiritually empty. You know, you go to Monte Carlo and it's just like, I don't know why I've been there. I just happened to have been there. Yeah. It's so fucking like, what is the point of this? I think our own little snapshot here in Los Angeles is a street

called Rodeo Drive. It's Rodeo Drive. It's like, OK, what the fuck? No, thank you. And I know a couple billionaires. They don't go down there. No. Billionaires shop at Gap. That's why they're billionaires.

And the 99-cent store. Yep, absolutely. Billionaires shop at the 99 cent store. Quote Dave Ramsey. Okay, so all this dinner I can't wait. Yeah. So Casino Royale is elegant and sexy. And that's why first up and we love Serena. First up is French onion soup served in a kind of clamshell bowl. Really clashing the dish and the vessel. Really clashing.

Let me say this. Yeah. That bowl and that grilled cheese was so drenched, Matthew Perry would have drowned in it. Yeah, and I love when you make fun of Matthew Perry dying in that body of water. Oh, by the way, guys, if you've been along this journey with me, my wife and I have been watching

What Lies Beneath, and we've had to break it up into 20 minute chunks, so it's taken a while. But Sunday, we finally finished it, we had a cinema morning. I gotta tell ya, I miss movies like that. It's. I got to tell you, I miss movies like that. It's what we call the popcorn movie. I miss movies like that. You go there, you can instantly forget it after you see it.

But while you're there, you're like, are they really going there with us? He's going to kill his wife of 30 years and drown her in a bathtub. Oh, in like a really, and it's so, I love that. And we'll get back to the show in a second. But I love that era of movie making because in the beginning of the movie,

there are two scenes where there's this exposition where they go, there's no cell service at the middle of the bridge. You're like, okay. And then she goes to the lab and they're like, he's working on a toxin that renders you unable to move. Okay, it was amazing. I got another movie for you. Okay. I mentioned it before and if for all the

barnacles out there, Stir of Echoes. It's too similar. It's similar but different. You're gonna love it. I used to hang out with the guy who ends up being the serial killer at the tail end. He walked in on the audition and he got the part. Stir of echoes. Alright, I'm not going to watch that. Okay, so the other thing about the French onion soup is you're a big fan, right? I love French onion soup. You strike me as somebody who would love French onion soup. Oh, I love it. Mushy, mushy, mushy onion soup. Yeah, it's a labor of love. You know, onions take a very long time to break down. Don Don't forget that melted coating on top and the melted coating on top is what I'd like to discuss right now because the melted Coating on top of Serena's clamshell French onion soup looked like vomit Or some kind of liquid corn, I think it was the wrong cheese

usually French onion soup is adorned with an it was the wrong cheese. Usually French onion soup is adorned with an unhealthy amount of creer that broils and myards and it's so beautiful but this looked like throw up. Yeah. And we love Serena. Big time. Also it's 80 degrees outside. Yeah. So. You got to play to the I guess all the elements don't you? Yeah. So as Eric speaks on the alpha-less pussies that dominate our culture, the steak hits the table. It's carrot puree, it's parmesan, it's a red wine jus. Everybody seems to like it, but Jason has a little bit of a problem with it. And he walks downstairs and he he asked Serena did you boil that steak and milk? Because it was

lifeless and had no sear. She said that she was scared of burning it, which is not a good answer from a chef. And I'd give the entire meal that we love Serena, probably negative seven. Negative seven. Wow, that is a 14 point differentiation from Captain Jason and I thought his score was four. Yeah, no, no, no. I was really tough on Serena tonight. That's okay. But room to grow. Anyways, we get to Weon's girl problems. Harry took big red.

Yeah. What'd you say? He shot for the big puss? Yeah, yeah, he took a shot. Okay. Yeah, yeah. Okay. But here's the good news about it, about males, especially like Wee Han or Bosens. Instantly, they're able to move on. His other options now that Brianna's off the dating board.

Every other female. Every other female every other yeah yeah I think if one of those orgs down in the engine room had a vag they'd be on his plate as well can you not say vag no yeah don't say vag oh sorry um what's better gash oh no should we bleep it? No. Okay. It's a beautiful, it's a beautiful sexual organ. Oh yes, yes, yes, one of the best. I would say, I mean compared to us, I mean just withering sacks of meal, you know? Yeah.

There's a reason I don't look down there, you know You don't know I try not to look in the mirror anymore either Okay, so um Yes, we on I gotta say coming off of the back of one of Gary King season. Yeah Seasons I gotta say, you know, it's really lovely to see this kind of light chauvinism. I like it That's you know what it is. It it you nailed it. It's chauvinism light. It's chauvinism light It's chauvinism zero. I think it helps that he's not a filthy drunk, right? Well, we got some time Sure, let's get to the next day next day protein balls are ready to go a dare cannot wear what she wants because she has a

Pale belly, but let's get to breakfast Eric stands at the head of the table and he delivers a sermon about, I think he said that women should give regular blowjobs or something because their husbands work so hard. I think it was, he was going there but it was more you need to make sure that your man feels like a king when he comes home. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You can't tell him if he smells and what do you mind taking his shoes off when he gets in the door? Yeah, it's like that woman that went viral she was like, when my man wants a nut, he gets a nut. A nut, huh? If he is

coming home from work for lunch, he gets a nut and it's like, Christ nuts DNA evidently He was getting six seven a day a day yeah, I'd be depleted oh You you'd look like a mummy You know what happens when you get old Dell all I want to do is sleep. That's my sex sleep. I gotta say sleep is Incredible it's I like it more than eating I Sleep, I gotta say, sleep is incredible. I like it more than eating. I do. I think I might too. Okay, so Adair.

Adair. Nope, talked about her. Okay, Serena is told to not feed the sea rats. All right, so I was confused by this. Okay, so they can eat essentially table scraps according to Captain Jason. Yeah, so Captain can eat essentially table scraps, according to Captain Jason. Yeah, so Captain Jason goes, you just lost a sous chef. You have all these table scraps.

Throw it on the floor and let them eat, right? And she's saying, well, it's all cold, and it may have norovirus in it, because it's just been sitting out for seven hours. Jason says, don't care. Do it. Do it throw it on the ground and let them eat. Now she's very frustrated by this because she wants to cook them a meal. I

don't know why I think it's this self sabotage. I'm going to try to completely tap my energy out. I don't know. But Jason over here is her complaining to I when are these sea rats going to realize the walls in these vessels are made of paper? Yeah, and where there are thick walls, there are giant openings. This is their first fight, I think they've... Now you got pissed at her with that onion volcano. Yeah, we're doing an onion volcano tonight, right? Not doing it.

Okay, no tonight, right? Not doing it. So, did you know that if you fast for three days and then eat a Tic-Tac, your veins will pop out of your fucking arms like Superman? I did not know that. Yeah, well that is why Eric makes the big fucking bucks, man. That's right. Okay?

Imagine hearing that at a seminar. Wow. What are we doing walking through life without the information that if we don't eat for three days and then have a tic-tac. I'm glad he was eating white. They're the best tic-tac by a country mile. There are orange people and there are white people and the orange people are weird. My wife's an orange person. That's what she uses a diet all day long. She just eats a whole thing of tic tacs. Yeah, yeah. Now the white ones are far superior again, the comments. Okay, I have to say this, Eric rock, I feel bad for you. I

think you did your business in your platform a major disservice by coming on the show because they made you look like an absolute asshole. I mean, you did it to yourself. Yeah. These these guys have a Keith Ranieri kind of spin they can throw on. Yeah, bad at it. Just these people don't understand how alpha we are. That's why that you know, I can help you find. Okay, so let's see how the tip is Eric says you're going to inspire the world. They are not. He then says the best exit speech of all

time. It was not. That was awesome. They are not he then says the best exit speech of all time. It was not That's pretty crazy man, yeah, you know, I hadn't realized this Eric looks like the situation. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, he looks like a human meatball so let's get to the tip 22k and we take Anthony's tip and He was supposed he's wearing the helmet somewhere, yelling at someone in a kitchen. Somewhere in heaven. So we on Serena are kicking things off quite a bit. I forgot she was into Culver.

I forgot about that too. Yeah. And then I hate that guy. Everyone that comes on here goes, oh, he's such a nice guy. I'm like, I don't care. You know, you have like your instincts. Like I just don't like that person. goes, oh, he's such a nice guy. I'm like, I don't care. You know, you have like your instincts, like I just don't like that person. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I don't think if he came on as a guest and we interviewed him, I don't think he could still make his way to get me to like him. No, no, no. I'd have to fake it. Like I did with Corinne Olympias. What?

I had fun with Corinne. Did you, what about Cul? Did you not like? I felt he was fake. Okay, it was all put on. And I don't think he was being real. And then I hated the whole Randy beer commercial. Keeps out Keith Stone was an old Milwaukee commercial that he just repurposed now. Like look like it was his original. And they kept allowing him to bring that back. No, I think Culver was just a log. Right. So and he liked it.

So he did it. But it was crazy. Remember when the hottest person to ever come on the show was like dating him. Dating him. Yeah. Cool stuff. All right, let's move on We don't need to worry about the past because the present is so good. Is it not? now We have another little tug-of-war here though Marina verse Serena and Weon is the pile of mud that one of them is gonna fall into

And we on is the pile of mud that one of them is going to fall into. Mm hmm. So we eat some brown food at a restaurant and then we get some Sea Rat history with Johnny. And I don't even know if this is worth recounting. Well, this is usually where if I have liquid in my mouth, I will spit it out because if you can believe it, his dad wasn't in the picture and he cheated on his mom so much that his own mother asked him to find another place to live we know we know Johnny yeah I'm sell. Zero. Zero. Yeah, that's a bummer. Because we do know.

We know. Okay, so let's get to the hot tub. Ah, the ball of snakes. We've talked about how important this solution of sex and humors and spit is, okay? Good seasons of Below Deck spawn out of this muck and check the box. This season has been so fantastic.

It really is. We had Johnny Grab Serena's face and shove it in his taint tonight Yeah, am I watching below deck or wild boys on MTV to I know I thought the same thing Yeah, I want to say this about Serena though. I love how she stakes her claim with we an yeah Like she basically just does a full leg wrap around like basically like take crack take it oh yeah for oh my god that's how you get a guy no i think it was for her oh still badass though still badass yeah spider woman straddle crack a heiny that's a woman that knows what she wants so yeah lots of kisses truth or dare.

But Johnny's strip dance was insane. I mean, everyone seemed really disgusted. Yeah, okay, so next day, next day, the J man does his morning meditation, Harry asked Jason for a little date and we go back to Margo. I forgot that Harry and Margo were a thing. She hit us. she's okay with this she checked it and said hi okay good we do right we love Margo I miss Margo I wish Margo was on the show I told her that we get to Zarina's crush on we hand what we and we and the we meant and Wee-in. Wee-in. The wee man. And Marina catches wind of this. Now as assured as Serena is with Wee-in, so is Marina. Marina turns into a spicy Latina and says, I know exactly what I want

to. Hold my beard. I love it. Take what's yours. Great move. And the Wee Man isn't theirs. He's likely a South African playboy. So it's a bit of an illusion. But go ahead. Well, so I believe this is where Marina and the Wee Man plan on a date together. And then meanwhile, I think Brianna and Harry go out to that lovely, lovely, lovely gelato place. Yeah, yeah, a couple of couple of golden

doodles. Yeah, she and she wants to get a PhD in marine biology. Yeah, hope she can. Yep, me too. I think they're really cute. I think they're a couple of total dorks who are very pretty and very into one another But can I quickly backtrack sure because We talked a lot of shit on Johnny in the first episode deservedly so Johnny was all over the place in the first episode He seemed to calm down a little bit. I think he's actually kind of lovely. I love Johnny on this show I do like Johnny too. I think he needs to get in the mix a little bit I think that that's what that whole really disgusting strip tease was about. Unfortunately,

we do see him in the teaser for future. Punching a wall. That's right. Yeah. And Dylan and I worked with a guy that would do that on a regular basis. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Hated that guy too. Yes, you did. So we end with a little Marina and we endate. She gives him a little Marina and we end date. She gives him a bracelet that says kisses in Portuguese. And then she gives him kisses. And I was wondering if Serena knew

that they were on a date. Answer, she did not know. But you know who tells her? Little golden doodle. Little Harry. Harry, Harry, you understand your job, sir. Yeah We in and Marina are out kissing at the hotel, but you didn't know yeah, no and that is when Things that aren't real

Really start to descend upon Serena. I'm not gonna do her accent, but I believe she said that fucking bitch Yeah, we can't do that, right? We can't do that. But we'll see what happens next week in the comments. Let us know what you thought about the episode. Are you orange or are you white tic-tac? Love you guys very much. I'm Dylan saying goodbye.

Pat, say goodbye. Later, dudes! Later, dudes! Perfect. Pleasant. Awesome. Perfect. Perfect.
