Have you? How much did you watch today? Six episodes. Unbelievable. You didn't have to do that to come in have to do that. No, she didn't need to. Sure did. She salami nips and I know I shouldn't come after people again not a ten But he he Ruby go ahead. Okay Yeah, it was heartbreaking to see I'm not sure why any there are a lot of people on this boat that are trafficking in behavior That everybody in their individual lives would say this is horrific behavior but for some reason people are like no no no no stop you're being mean you're being mean i love carrie i think this new chef is going to be a just a blast and a half maybe so old though he's 109 um and

yeah i'm i'm i enjoyed the binge watching i did today good, thank you for doing that. How many pots would you give it? 61. 61 knots. In Sea Rat years, our new chef Nick is 109 years old. That's right. He's too old to be a Sea Rat. He is too old to be a Sea Rat, but it's nice to have him. I'm excited to go over the Feast of the Seven Fishes. Unbelievable performance by Nick. Very difficult thing to pull off, pulled it off. What is it in spades? What do you say? Is that it? What does that mean? Don't know. Did good. Just did good. Yeah, good. What's that word? Like in what is the let's not so Ben continues to escalate and go up the other flagpole. He is not just the most revolting person on this season,

but I think that he's he's kind of carving out a spot on the pantheon of of Sea Rat Sea Rats in the entire legacy. This show is lovely to see that all go down. Also, Barbie, you know, God love you. Get your therapist as soon as humanly possible. Let's root out some of that dad stuff. And also to Barbie's dad, if you're listening, you know, who knows? You're one of these, um, you know,

capitalist, uh, you know, old rich guys. So you may pop out another kid. You'll be too tired to do what you've done to Barbie. But lay off a little bit, okay? Just let them become women. Four pots. Yeah. All right, I enjoyed the episode.

I think it was episode 13 or something. We're rounding out the season here. Still very entertaining. I will say some of the drama that I thought would be with Frazier as the Chief Stu, he's kind of been in the background this season, I think because everybody else is just that awful. Yep Captain Carrie I put in a request to review him if we do get him and that's a word that was supposed to be interview

Thank you. What did I say review? Oh interview him? Yeah. Yeah, but well, we'll review him as well Well, we review him every week. Yeah, and he's passing with spades, but if he comes in here to talk to us I know that Captain Lee wants to chat with him as well. So we'll make sure that happens. Yeah. Anyway, I can't stand the guests. They're very annoying. I hate Yelp as a business.

To be an elite Yelper is to wear a Scarlet letter that you've put on yourself in a very proud way. And it's some of the most delusional behavior in metropolitan life. Yeah, I'd agree with that, Dylan. Leaving 560 reviews for every Thai restaurant in the Bay Area. I mean, who, wait, sorry.

So you go to a restaurant and then you have to write about that? It's like, just go though, and then don't write anything. Yeah. But you want to be elite, don't you? No, no. Anyway, I actually have high hopes for Nick. I love that there's an older guy in there and he's not old. Come on. We've had Bosons talk. Think about Gary. Gross Gary. Gary might be 36, but he looks every part of like 47.

And he's gross too. Nick, I think it's great. By the way, I thought he was going to be like one of these fake resume guys, given the fact that he didn't bother read that preference sheet meeting saying that they wanted a seafood spread. But anyway, he came through on that dinner service, completely enjoyable, 50 knots.

All right, so I want to apologize. Last week, a fan let us know that we had completely glossed over the fact that Kyle has an artillery weapon hanging from his waist. We completely. Kickstand, I think I might have said that. Did you say he's got a hog? Like in earlier episodes?

Oh, okay Yeah, cuz one time cuz they've kind of gotten away from it before while they were showing him what a party freak He is and how he likes to get drunk and naked and every time they blur him the blur would go down to the floor It looks like something you'd have to save some kind of Greek princess from mm-hmm. Oh, they're really scary stuff It's quite a burden. Yeah, it's quite a burden So Those two yeah, I was gonna say did you guys catch the beginning of the episode with the the beginning establishing shot? It was the beach and then like a three-legged dog walks by the screen. Okay, that's a fucking thousand year old prophecy

That says someone's gonna regret having had sex with somebody Some was gonna regret having sex with somebody. Yeah, is that like a Celtic thing? Yeah, I don't know. We're in Grenada, you know Okay So we wake up the next morning and we're all in our feels right? We've we've consummated this marriage and now we're slurping down a watermelon together. That's right. Everything is fine and the sea rats all parade in and they begin to poke prod and tease about all the fuck in that took place the night before. Now, vampira vampira, I've really turned a corner on vampira. She what was once

vampire. I've really turned a corner on vampire. She what was once a day walking introvert who was lovely has now turned into quite a caddy day walking vampire who's lovely. The shots taken at Barbie out of completely nowhere. It's just why do they have to be done? It's like why do you have to leave a restaurant and write on Yelp about it? Why do you have to say Barbie doesn't like working so she wouldn't give a hand job? That's just completely unnecessary. It's pretty mean spirited if you ask me. Super mean spirited. And Barbie does work. Right. She does. We'll give that to her. But Barbie's having the worst day of her life

because she'd promised her dad, you know, before she came on the show that, well, she promised she wouldn't have sex. And now he's going to be really bummed. Hey dad. Okay. I need, I need everyone to listen up. Your father. Okay. Do me a favor. Yeah. A little more love, just a little more. A little more love, less control. Hold on. Let me give some context to this. So, and this is kind of an old bit from Patty. Yeah, dad didn't ask her not to have sex. I believe it was don't have sex In a bathroom on TV. Oh, yeah, because you know, here's his workplace dad's office. This is co-worker Hey, you're Barbie's dad, right interior. Yeah, he's like, okay

Hey, you know me and uh me and the wife love your daughter. She's our favorite cast member and I was telling my wife the other day Yeah, yeah watching the whole see I said there's no way she's gonna have sex with that guy, right? Yeah, and then my wife called me in the room last night. She says oh, she's banging him standing up in the bathroom Right. I was like, wow. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, love the show, right, right That's her dad having to deal with that at the office. Hey, she's got she's got a lot of elbow grease that Barbie I mean you really raised a worker. I don't know why that day vampire said she doesn't work. That's crazy. Hey thanks for, thanks for chatting now. Yeah, good talk. So I don't know what

this guy's name is. The Top Chef arrives. Nick! But at this point I didn't know what his name was. Like they showed him on screen for such a long time, I had no idea who it was. I just put New Chef. New Chef. Can I get into the Barbie Kyle stuff, do I have more hacky material to sift through here? Okay, really quickly before you do, obviously he does walk on to the boat accompanied by the Skechers rap that has become, you know, the Skechers commercial

rap. Like you're watching a Skechers commercial and then the rap that we've heard all season long plays and they should keep it going quite frankly, because I think it's absolutely hilarious. All right. So let me, so Dylan's referring to the music, the royalty free music that plays now. Some new producers came in to kind of charge some new energy. I'm at the top. So this music was chosen from a list on Pond5 royalty music. Pond5. Called Motivational Hip Hop.

Yeah. That's what this music was. It's absolutely absurd. And it kind of takes me out of the show, to be honest. So let's get back to Al. OK, well, not Al. I was going to get to. All right, so Kyle notes he was persistent, because at this

point Kyle doesn't know that he's being looked upon as a, as buyer's remorse. Okay, she banged him all night, right? So he's kind of bragging he got what he wanted. The problem is it was drunken sex, okay? And the problem with that is it's sex equivalent to the the drunken Taco Bell order. Sounds good at the time, you know? You order 27 orders, it's 1 a.m. You want it, and what's the next day filled with? Well, diarrhea and regret. What eventually happens when you eat a quesarito and a half is that you have to exercise the quesarito and a half, and that's never fun. But big umbrage I have, I don't think that Kyle boasted

about this at all and I think one of the most frustrating things about this episode was that- To the camera, to us, he was telling us. He'd waited, he was patient. But I don't think he spilled any tea about any genitals or anything like that to the sea rats either. Not at all, at worst he was putting in an uncomfortable position of being in Locations where people were rousing him and then he smiled no no Barbie's out of line here, okay

This is your problem Barbie Barbie is in a whirlwind of of father complex stuff. Yeah, she's acting completely Irrationally well think about that call from her sister later that didn't help out oh, well her I cannot wait to talk to her sister because, you know, listen, we'll get into it. Get ready for those DMs tomorrow. There's more to go into with that stuff. So Ben heads down, picks up his phone, sees an Instagram story of Camille with a gummy bear flume in front of her.

And this is, there is so much here. There is a Tolstoy amount of stuff right here. So the whole thing comes across like he was, he had found a picture of his long lost white female rap lover in some addict. But it wasn't that, it was a social media post that he posted himself in response to the question, what is your favorite snack on charter? So, so there's, there's so much. So one, just work. Why are you doing? Because I've seen these series that he does where

he let he add answers all these questions from fans. You're literally on a boat, get back to work. Second thing, which is a little problematic, you're currently having sex with somebody who lives in the next room over. So how could you say to camera over and over and over again, eye roll, women, I just don't understand them. Look at what they make me do. Well, we're very different. I'm not making excuses for the pig. I've been, Ben.

But at the tail end of this episode, when he lets her go, I mean, now will we kind of frame, if she chooses to come back and sleep with him,, I mean, now will we kind of frame if they, she chooses to come back and sleep with him, can we now say, it's kind of on you. Yeah. Oh, of course. Yeah. And, and Sunny, Sunny is in a, she, it breaks my heart because she approaches Ben with this kind of, and we'll see it later, the full plight of gaslighting, but she's very timid see it later, the full plight of gas lighting, but she's very timid when she approaches Ben and she's not that she is Quebec, while warrior princess lead,

lead deckhand. So I don't know what those pepperoni nips have. They, they have some kind of cosmic hypnotizing power the way a pendulum would, but yeah, it's sad. She's also beautiful. So beautiful. She is unbelievably beautiful. I don't get it. If I've been following his Instagram as I have, I believe he was posting pictures like of them with in at Christmas time.

Sunny. Oh no. Sunny. Don't. All we can do is make fun of you and ridicule you hereafter because it's just so obvious. So we get to Barbie and dad. Well, I was going to say is this when Barbie tells Kyle to keep his mouth shut?

Yeah, it was it was very countess like. Yeah. You know what I mean? The problem is we all saw you fuck that pirate. And then despite the fact that you said it in French We could you know, yeah But what you don't want what you don't want to be He's going to throw up right now. His face is so red. Okay. Okay. Okay. And this, this, this,

you were on camera and what just take, just take a second. No, no, no, no. Take a second and don't die. What Pat just went through is akin to the Chinese performer in The Prestige. Somebody that sacrifices for their art. Now. I'm back. Okay. Oh dear.

Okay. Barbie, you're on a television show. Dad's clearly going to see that you had sex. All right. I want to ask Barbie this. Barbie, Barbie, you're on a television show. Dad's clearly gonna see that you had sex. All right, I wanna ask Barbie this. Barbie, I know you're listening. Just admit it. Did you ask producers if they'd edit that up? I wanna know.

Because that sounds like something Barbie would do. That's a great cue. But also, Barbie, if you did, if you did kind of a diss, because why would you be so delusional as to think that they would be like, of course we'll edit that. Right, right, right.

Oh, Barbie, it's spicy. Yeah, Barbie, listen. When we see C-. Oh, Barbie, it's spicy. Yeah, Barbie, listen, when we see Sea Reds having sex, we ask ourselves, should we show it or should we not? That was me eating cheese. So Barbie is flaming Kyle a little bit. There's a lot of misunderstanding here. I'm sure Kyle and Barbie have worked this out, you know, posthumously, but

you, you can clearly see that Barbie's father, who is not a Nazi. Let's just make that clear. He is not a Nazi. Definitely not has done untold, maybe not untold, but unintended harm to his daughter. To see someone go into a mental panic the way that Barbie is going through, it's clearly, you know, it's a, it's the claws are in a little bit too deep. I have to say, if Elliot told me, that's my daughter, she's going on below deck, I'd be like, don't do anything stupid. Yeah, I would not be happy. And then stupid isn't having sex with someone. It's in it's inferred or implied. Right. So here's what I would say. Yeah, but you should be worried about that. Not because daddy will be sad with you because your whole life is then going to be full of people saying, oh my God, I watched you fuck on TV right right. That

is what should drive the fear. It shouldn't be instant panic because Daddy is going to be disappointed. So sunny sees the story that been posted. What's your favorite snack on charter her she's not even on the boat and she is crestfallen because it's a piece of shit thing to do to someone that you are fucking. And this is the problem with young men and older men who are pigs and sex addicts. For men to not go through life, and again, when you're young, maybe you don't really

grasp this. You don't grasp the, see you've been with your lovely wife since you were really young. I know you mixed it up a little bit. Yeah sure. But me being a guy in your 20s and fellow travelers, you do not understand what you're doing to another person and so you have it done to you. But there's a dynamic with women where sex with women on the whole means more than it does to men. Yes, for most so to completely fail to grasp that and to post stories the way that Ben did at his age is psych full blown psychotic to me. It's mean it's mean. I don't care that you're not dating. You're having sex with her. It's psychotic behavior. I and I

agree. Gummy bear flume man. Okay, so Paris brings up the whole Instagram thing. He says he didn't do anything wrong and it's time for a prayer. Fred, she made a we can't move on until you yell. So we'll take it again. I didn't know I was supposed to. Okay, sorry. It we'll take it again. I didn't know I was supposed to. Okay, sorry. It's time for a preference sheet meeting. Thank you. So, Alex Taylor, elite Yelper, wants a memorable vacation, likes Instagrammable food and the craziest request of them all, they would like octopus nachos. They're going on a chocolate tour they want a Caribbean

Christmas theme and they want dinner one night that ends exactly at 12 o'clock all right let's break down the game film Alex works at Yelp okay Alex where can I leave a review for Yelp because you assholes call me day and night you email me I've asked you I don't want your advertising you can shove it up your ass you guys do not have a contact number a phone number on your website No, no, no nowhere to find it. I've owned companies where people our competitors had left me one star reviews I can't reach out to anyone. I hate you. I will never advertise with you and I would if I could I would leave Zero stars for you, but Yelp doesn't have a Yelp. You guys are so predatory and annoying.

Literally, I should show you, they call me twice a day. They're from San Francisco. Hey, it's Lauren, and I said stop calling me. I don't want it. I don't want your fucking advertising. Let's move on to the next thing. Alex loves Instagram food. Do you have any thoughts on that?

What are they advertising and why would they ever call you? It's a complete conflict of interest. So you have any thoughts on that? Why, what are they advertising and why would they ever call you? It's a complete conflict of interest. So what you can buy advertising, say you're a fucking cookie store, Yelp, you can buy advertising from them, they'll put an ad right over other people's cookie stores, right over there. It's how crumble blew up. Okay. It's how crumble blew up. And they have good cookies. You eat crumble cookies? eat crumble cookies. Yes, I do. Wow. Do you really? Yeah, I do. What's your favorite crumble? The blueberry one. Oh, wow. Not what I would have thought at all. I love blueberry. Oh, dude. I'm a big fan of blueberry and confectionaries. My my my

three favorite pop tarts cherries number one, but blueberry is a close second and I don't know what the third is strawberry Strawberry. No it's the no strawberry can fuck off. It's the the mixed berry you remember the crazy one when we were kids CW Saturday morning cartoons Nickelodeon every time I saw that pop tart I'd flip out I'd be like mom we've got to get this. It's the purple frosting with the green squiggly. Sounds like God Halloween ask. All right. Let me keep going here. Alex loves Instagram food. So he's also a tool bag. He and Jill's Aaron should make they make the world's most annoying children.

Okay. They're going to head to that chocolate tour. If I got that right for a chocolate tour. Do they want to visit the Hoover dam and eat some Anderson's pea soup after that? You basic, basic, basic people. Forgive me. It's the wild berry. You does that. Is that not a nostalgia bomb? Memory tricked.

Yep. Delicious. The pat, the only, the only redeeming, not quality, but thing on this piece of paper about this horrific group of people is that no one has asked to be called a king or queen. That's it. That's the only thing. Yeah.

And by the way, I love how the last charter guest after they blew us off for the first interview, she reached out like, Hey, can we come on Monday? Fuck off. Yeah. Sorry, queen. Sorry, queen. Sorry, queen. You're not allowed in this kingdom.

And do you do that in your real life? I just want to know. And I want you to know that I want you to take several seats and that that chocolate tour was amazing. Sure it was. I loved that chocolate tour. I thought it was so fun. Yeah because Grenada is known for its chocolate. I bet they are. I bet some really expensive chocolate comes from Grenada. Okay. Okay. So Fraser and Barbie have a chat. We don't want to slam a Freudian anvil over and over again, but Fraser is very, very sweet to her throughout this.

And Kyle looks on at Barbie crying. I have the transcript that what Fraser said. I won't do the accent, but this is what it's no do the accent I can't just try in the beginning and see if it'll carry you way through. We're all fuck-ups Oh, I think you're some podcasts call us sea rats So lift up that chin and put a smile on it and save the crying for when your dad sees the episode Well, you are a thespian yeah, I didn't know if that was you or Hugh Grant. Really good. Thanks, man.

I mean, it's a lot. So let's get to the sunny and no Nick goes through the the galley really quickly and says it's in the, you know, we've discussed top three favorite pop darts. These are the top three worst galleys he's ever seen. And Anthony, you know, we were very kid gloves with Anthony and I think the season faltered. I feel odd because more Sea Rats are listening and I feel like I want to unleash, but Anthony was such a sweetheart and his uncle is banging his wife and all that stuff. Anthony was as close to useless as you can be while still being a good chef.

That's right. He was very incompetent and Dylan and I, I think we'll pull back if you're nice while being incompetent. Right, right. And that's what took place there. All I made fun of was his uncle fucking his wife. Right, right.

But I could have gone way harder. We did that every episode. Yeah, but I could have gone way harder, Dylan, is that my wife. Right. Right. Right. We did that. We did that every episode. I could have gone way hard. Right. Right. Right. Right. So now he's gone and he should have been gone. And the, the, the, and I discussed it when we first saw him, but the marker of a, an un, an unprofessional chef or an inexperienced chef is sloppiness and a lack of organization. Because real chefs, talented chefs have to. The demand of what they're doing is so high

that if things are sloppy, they literally can't do their job. So it's just ingrained in them to be very organized. To go in and have mold everywhere, you're just not a serious person, okay? By the way, I should remind you, when Captain Carrie gave him the axe, he said, he goes, you can leave me.

What's this for? Well, Nestle said that. So what are you talking about? I'm getting fired. Well, once he accepted, he was getting fired, he told Captain Carrie that he was, rather than just leave, he felt a duty to clean the kitchen. Oh, wow.

Yeah. Yup. Yep. So, But there was still mold. It was a biohazard. Yeah. It's what kills people. It was a legit biohazard. John Taffer would be pissed.

What are you doing? So let's get to the Sonny and Ben chat. Reminder, he is vile. Also starts conversation off by saying, I am who I am. He said, that's me, darling. Okay. I'm sorry, it just makes me ill. Okay, so he says that, they address this Instagram story thing. He says, that's me, darling, okay?

Which implies no desire to change, no accountability, the behavior of a fucking sex addict, quite frankly. But you could argue this is one of those times where you say when a person shows you who they are, believe them. He's telling her, and I believe he continues on by saying if she hooks up with him moving forward, let's acknowledge that it's coming with no attachment.

This is my favorite part. He says it's always something with you. That's true, he did say that. What world are we living in? Has she been? Remotely anything to you? No, she's been. Clingy, nothing.

She's been, she's approached you when you've been rubbing down other women and she's approached you when you posted that your favorite snack was a person who was sucking down a gummy bear Fluman wasn't on the boat. Okay. So Sunny is not a stage five clinger. She is not always up to something. It's me darling go fuck yourself. So the best part is the break up where he goes. You know this is over,

but were we to have sex again, I'd be okay with that, but it's still over. I mean, just such a tepid half measure. You know, I want my cake and I want to eat it too, and I want to post about other cake whenever I can. He also says, excuse me, I'd be pretty hurt if I was sunny. Oh no. Oh Jesus. It's okay Lou. Because he says I was never really into her. I don't have the feels for her. Right. The spark. Yeah and there's another cost question. That's okay. Hey Lou, you had sex with that pirate but then what happened that night where you brought all those guys home? Oh I told them don't ever talk. The countess never talks. Don't say anything. I always lie. I always keep the lie, dear.

You will too, pirate. Okay. What, and what's your daughter up to? My daughter, I don't know. I'm the countess, dear. That woman. Come here, we play in Vegas next week. I got you under my thumb. I've got

you. Oh my God. Don't don't hurt yourself. That was really good. Again, that's that's it. Thank you, dear. Oh, I love it. So poor Sonny convinced that she is now toxic heads down to chat with Paris. You were with a piece of shit with massive nipples. There's nothing wrong with you. And you are so fucking gorgeous. You'll be fine. We had to bed and now Barbie and Kyle are imploding. Can I just ask you guys a quick question about the Barbie Kyle thing? Yeah. One of your

favorites. What if the roles were reversed? What if, what, what if Kyle was going around saying the things that Barbie is saying? Well, we do have an example of that. It's Ben and Sonny. He's completely rejecting her. I don't play if the roles are reversed. I think it's a silly game because I believe in gender norms. Okay, no, Dylan's right. Dylan can't put this in because he believes in gender norms. Call me kooky. Fucking nutbag. It is insane that she, like I feel as though she's,

again, it's mean, we're being mean. We're being mean, but Barbie's coming from a- She's slut-shaming. Well, she's coming from a psychological wounded dungeon. So I can't really, I can't, you know, these are forgiven crimes. So what could Ben do the next morning besides go out on deck and single sunny out

for wearing AirPods? You're a stippling worm. First off, I quit. I can't wear, I can't listen to my favorite podcast while I wipe off a fucking window. Why do I have to, why do we have to communicate? I'm wiping, I'm wiping bird shit off the railing. What, what, what am I supposed to talk to Dylan about? When I affirmation, when I worked at North American

insurance, the only thing that had me thinking I was going to quit, they sent out like an office mandate that we were all listening to our radios too much and that we might have to turn them off while we worked. And I was like, no, I'm not a real guy. I need my stern in the morning that morning radio exists. Morning radio, you know, people always say that the. I need my stern in the morning that morning radio exists morning radio. You know, people always say that the church is the opiate of the masses. Morning radio is the opiate of the masses. This is true. If you cannot hear Ryan Seacrest in trapping a a cheater at eight fifteen in the morning,

you'll kill your son. I don't want to live anymore. Yeah one eight hundred you'll kill your son. I don't want to live anymore. Yeah, one eight hundred roses. So that's not enough numbers. Doesn't matter. Make it work. So the meal gets going and we get a little bit about Michelin stars at the Ritz. We'll see what he can do soon, but we get to poor Barbie Barbie. Kyle has done not okay. The only the only wrong foot that Kyle has placed in this whole thing is showing Ben the texts from the night before that's true, but very true,

but but he hadn't done any of that before she was met right, but again dead horse. We're dealing with deeper issues here wounds wounds so and we're not we're not implying any any abuse or anything like that there's just a coddling that takes place that ruins the mind you know I've seen it before in friends you know you say you say something untoward about somebody's mother and all of a sudden we're at well, that's not a good example I have one about someone's dog. Yeah, you're done. You know, yeah those are then then we can all admit, you know, come on Yeah, you're saying that if somebody talks about your animals, you'll fly off a handle and that's psychotic. Yeah. Yeah. Okay, so um We let's get to these jerk-offs. Yeah, the guests arrived the Yelp elites in the foodies. Okay self-described keep it 100

I leave five stars that kind of rap plays once again Yeah and these are the idiots that take great pride in having Reviewed every single place the guy Fieri has traveled on diners drive. Yeah dives onion rings little soggy loved the footlong chili dog Yeah, I love I love how they even started taking pictures of a tray of sliced watermelon. Where will you post that they go to restaurants and sit down at the airport and do this. They sit down and they do this at airports and we know that we do know that if they've left that many reviews,

they have to have reviewed a thank God. It's Fridays have to have reviewed a thank God it's Fridays at O'Hare at O'Hare or at Charlotte. They've reviewed Bojangles at Charlotte. This is this is food. Lots of people ate Bojangles while I was there. I'm sure Bojangles is delicious. You couldn't. I it on the plane Well, you can't take food on two planes. I was eating Bojangles does it Don't ask me to not eat for any period of time more than 90 minutes won't do it can't do it need a meal Yeah, what's the stinkiest thing you've brought on a plane you think I I'm not I am very very very conscious I would not do something stinky. It's typically like a wrap or like a Salad with a very non-offensive dressing. Okay, it's not some kind of vinaigrette very conscious. I would not do something stinky. It's typically like a wrap or like a salad

with a very non-offensive dressing. It's not some kind of vinaigrette. Yeah. It would never be like a cream based something. Right. Right. You know what? I got a Caesar salad once and I do not open it. That's like, this is offensive. Okay. All right. Cause I was worried that you, you walk through TSA with two grilled cheeses from In-N-Out. I would never do that. And if somebody... The entire plane would smell like spread. And it would be rude because you didn't bring enough for your neighbors.

No, and neighbors want In-N-Out. It's a treat. So we get to lunch. The... How the seafood spread. The... yeah, Frazier is not happy with Nick. There aren't enough fries evidently and he's not wowed. Hey, Frazier, pretty bitchy. And also, Fraze, let's cut this off at the past, right?

Like, if you don't see that there's a seafood spread out, why are we waiting till we're bringing the food up to talk about this? Alright, so with Frazer, I'm trying to think that he's trying to balance out micromanaging versus you got hired. Yeah, let's see what you got. Right. But I'd argue at some point you probably should have checked in with him during the day. Yeah. So it's kind of his fuck up chiefs do. That's right. Chiefs do. It's a hard game to play bitches. Alright, so the guests head out, Frazier compliments the gay one on his shorts and he turns around and says thanks it's gonna get

really weird later. Sorry Dill, should we mention that Kerry did check on Chef Nick and then he quickly put some scallops together? I'm sorry I am on PCP right now. Of course we should talk about that. Okay so I'm on angel. At some point I got a promotion at Weathervvane seafoods from dishwasher to the broiler and I used to make those scallops. They are so easy. You put a little plate down, you put like some scallops there, uh, little breadcrumbs on top, a little butter. You throw it in the broiler for, I don't know, two, three and a half minutes. You got fucking scallops.

They taste delicious. They melt in your mouth. He wasn't pulling any magic there. If old Patty can do it, I'm not impressed. They taste delicious. They melt in your mouth. He wasn't pulling magic there. If old Patty can do it, I'm not impressed. Well, the octopus nachos are served. Um, Mr. Holiday himself absolutely flips the, the textural nightmare of even a well cooked puss on top of a bed of chips is enough to make you can't do it. You can't fucking do that. I want to see how much was left. I want to see if these pigs actually ate that lamb was served as well. This is not that that that is I can't do those two foods can't do pus

because they came from Mars and they're too smart right. I love pus can't do it anymore. Can't do lamb too small can't do lamb, too small, can't do lamb. So me at that table, I'd be like, one, I can't eat the lamb, two, why are we putting puss on chips right now? I mean, it's just disgusting. So we head out. The Yelp elites love it. They love it. They lap it all up. This is when we get to the compliment about the shorts and the charter guest turns around and says, thanks, things are gonna get weird later. So like Ruby, like, so people like the way you dress.

You're like a goth daria, right? So people will come up to you invariably and go, hey, love your boots or love your shirt. And what do you say? Thank you? Yep. Thanks, it's going to get weird later. What?

Think, try to think of a time in which the response to that compliment would be that and it would be okay. I'm so blown away that that was that was the fire return, but Frazier liked it. I can't talk about this chocolate place. Well, you could try. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I was not impressed, but I was thinking they're ready to make chocolate. What are you? What are you guys going to do next? Head over to color me mine and paint some coffee mugs.

You basics. Okay, so a couple things. One, we have to do a vlog where Pat smokes pot for the first time in a long time and he goes to color me mine. Okay, done. Um, color me mine is a lovely place, especially when you're high. And two, I loved this chocolate date. We have seen so many of the same things. That's true. The snorkeling, the poot-a-potties, the beaches, the three-legged dogs, the syringes, we've seen it all. We've never seen a passionate man talking about the

cacao bean. I mean it's a miraculous ingredient. We have also not seen a Christmas theme in November. I appreciated that. Yeah. All right, A for effort for these basics. Are you okay? I use my voice and it hurts now. Okay, you got to sing that PMZ theme. Oh shoot coming up. All right, I'll get there man. All right. So Ben is heart sick and because that is true, he has a little heart sick face time with Millie illicit. How insane is it to think that Sonny is too much, but the girl who

is a rapper and too big for this boat and drinks constantly on charter and fights with everybody is not too much. Right. Dylan, I couldn't tell you. He's a toxic person. He's addicted to toxic things. Here, I'm gonna reenact the whole scene of that FaceTime. Yeah. All right here's bed Hey, what are you up to? Nothing, and you don't want us involved. Oh, no, you don't have to So what you got going? Oh, I got it. I got a gig. Oh where Florida? Oh, yeah. Hey, well, maybe I'll come see you there. Nah So what's up? Is it over? Yeah, probably.

Yeah. Oh, okay. Let me hang up the phone here. We can hear it. Hey, Sonny, what are you doing tonight? You want to grab dinner? Yeah. Yeah. Because that's how guys work. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, that's how guys work. That's how Ben works. And that's how you worked in your

thirties and late thirties and early forties. And that's okay. That's okay. You're not drinking that much anymore. So, so, um, but we get to the Christmas decoration, the Christmas stories, Frasier. I mean, not that every Sea Rat history has to land on the Sea Rat side scale, but you know, Christmas was great around the house. No, yeah. I mean, that's not even on the Sea Rat side scale, but you know, Christmas was great around the house. Oh yeah, I mean, that's not even on the scale. So Nick is getting ready for the Seven Fishes feast and my goodness gracious, what a marvelous job he did. Just want to run through the menu really quickly.

So we've got a bloody, and we're not starting off strong. We're not starting off strong just because of what the tongue did. It was in a moment swollen by some kind of phantom bee sting but but it's completely fine and I'm gonna keep going okay so the first course was a Bloody Mary clam shooter these Instagram quote-unquote foodies yeah you can see the clam at the bottom of that glass well and they then did and then called it an oyster,

but no big deal. Mollusks do look similar. And I think they're mollusks. I'm not sure. But there was also mahi mahi sashimi. I would say, if we're doing amuse bouches, let's do two. Let's not Frankenstein them into one, right? That's fine.

Salmon with mash, asparagus, fennel light, lovely way to start off the meal in full. Right. We hear a story between courses, Captain Phillips or Captain Kerry. I don't know which one. Captain Kerry apparently, cause it was just some fishermen. I love this is, this is such a, it has like Calvin and Hobbes energy, but with real life high stakes consequences. So Carrie thinks that he's being chased by Somali and Somali and pirates, Somali pirates. Yeah. And they're just trying to flag him down desperately so that he does not ruin their entire way of life, my way of lives. Way of lives.

Right? So that was just, we'll just chalk that up to a big misunderstanding. The basics love that story. We get to, you know, I was not familiar with this kind of pasta, and I'm going to butcher it here. It's like scosso greti with crab or something. It means choke hold.

That was lovely. Lobster with carrot ginger puree. We've got seared ahi and we wrap with the most You know, this is when the culinary arts can really rocket into the stratosphere, right? Jeff Bezos we need not your blue star or whatever the fuck it is the care placed on this final dessert Thematically tying the Italian dinner with the chocolate that they had brought from the day I mean, it's just, it was so lovely. I can't give it anything less than 96 pots.

I think that's a great score. I think deserved. I love a cannoli. Cannolis are delicious. Now they'll blow out my entire intestinal system the next day. The whole thing. Yeah. It's, it's the mascarpone. It is the a hundred percent. Do you think it's worth it? What do you say? Oh, it's worth it. Yeah, the talkable, not for my wife, talkable is worth it too. You know, in many ways it is in always Taco Bell is it. I think that it goes unnoticed. like what a serious contribution that business has made to

all of us. You're right. Like I can't thank them enough. Dylan, I have a story for you. My small town in Massachusetts in high school, our first Mexican restaurant was a taco. Yeah, that is the only reflection of any post. So you're saying not only is it delicious food, but but it's a gateway into other cultures. That's right. Right. Diversity at Taco Bell. You learn the real Mexican Independence Day. It's not Cinco de Mayo and you learn that Mexico's favorite drink is a blue kind of Mountain Dew. And without Taco Bell, no, no, no, no, no, no, You wouldn't know how to live moss. So we hit the hay with Dylan's affirmations. I don't want to shit on affirmations. They seem psychotic to me, but I mean, they seem helpful for other people.

Yeah. Whatever gets you there, man. In the same way. And I just have this thought because I'm high, but we look at our little, our little tiki talkies in our phones and that makes us all sad because we're, because we're sad, but that's not psychotic. So why are we making fun of him? Cause he's like listening to someone being like, Hey, great job. It's if we're comparing tickies and affirmations, there's a clear winner.

It's the tickies. No, no, no. It's okay. Yeah. No. Okay. No. Um, it's a nice asses on tick tock, you know, Patrick, I'm just saying that's okay. Yeah, no. Okay. No, it's nice asses on Tik Tok, you know, Patrick. I'm just saying that's why people look at it. That's your algorithm. No, that's your algorithm. My algorithm is completely different. My algorithm. I saw this video.

Ruby said it was so funny. She said, please send it to me. It was a guy at a dam and there was a full blown dam, not quite Hoover, but a pretty big dam. And there was a beaver that just so happened to be in the shallow water beneath said damn and he said you're telling me this one beaver built this whole fucking thing that's incredible it is I sent it to someone and they responded and they said I love your family's sense of humor. It is so funny. So we wrap the episode up with a little chat between Ben and Barbie.

What is there to say about this guy? I mean, just such a the wrong approach at every turn. I understand the drive to want to remedy, but how can you be so tone deaf? Like you're just approaching this so incorrectly. So you're referring to Ben meeting with Barbie to chat about Kyle. Yes. Now, while I find it inappropriate,

and Kyle should speak for himself. I think he was trying to be a brother and whatnot. Yeah. However, Barbie referred to that conversation as a quote unquote attack to Paris. I think we can deescalate the language. Inappropriate, annoying, yes. An attack, no.

Yep. I agree. I think that Kyle, I think that Ben is just trying to be like, I don't like when people are sad on deck, so stop making him sad. And she's like, you're screaming at me and stop attacking me, cause she's, it feels very personal to her.

And again, that's because of the wound, you know, Kyle and Barbie blow up at one another. Well, she blows up at him. I'm, I'm sitting here pulling my hair out. Like, can someone just say that nothing's been done? Can we, can we just, can someone come out of the woodwork? I mean, it's probably going to have to be Paris. Can someone say nothing's happened here? Keep talking about it to everyone on the boat. Oh, I, but I, I didn't, I thought you were going to have my back with it, but then you played into it. So and it's this, it's this,

it's quite Shakespearean. I mean, it's a tragedy of epic proportions. I mean, epic proportions to see rats banging in a bathroom and falling out of love almost instantaneously. I can't think of anything more sad, but he completely, they're living in two completely different worlds. There's this miscommunication has completely uprooted them from reality and they know not which way to get back. That's the end of the episode for us. Jump in the iTunes ratings and reviews,
