Hello there. So we have a very special episode. Our best buddy in the Bravo Below Deck world slash universe joins us. Her name is Kate Chastain, the Queen of the Sea. Because Zoom and technology don't work good, we lost Kate probably like later on in the episode. So the audio gets a little bit wonky later on. We had to, you know, call her on our cell phone and hold her up to the mic again because Zoom don't work good. So just know that. And now, until, what?

Without further ado, here's the episode. Are you a patron? Can we just give her a free link to i think i am actually really yeah and i want to be this meeting is being recorded oh dylan dylan you added the sunglasses, you know. I can't see anything without them. Are they transitions? No, they're prescription. And I can't see anything without them. I know I look like a fucking, you know, I look ridiculous right now. You look like an FBI agent undercover from the 80s.

You look like you work for Magnum PI. Yeah, well. How are you? With a dad bod. Yeah. MPI. Yeah. Well,

how are you with a dad bod? Yeah. I mean, if your eyes are that bad, did you maybe consider, um, some with clear lenses? I can't find them right now. And it's also daytime.

Can we get into the show, please? Yeah, sure. Stevie. Welcome a-fuckin'-board Another brand spanking new episode of another Below Deck Podcast My name is Dylan, I'm saddled up next to one real Nicholas Davis Ahoy mate mateys.

Pat, producer of the podcast, over there behind my glasses. Great to be here. And joining us is our favorite person in this world of Below Deck. She is the queen of the sea. That is one Kate Chastain. How are you, Tony Oscar?

Ahoy, mateys. I took Nick's line. You're welcome to that line because you're not just one of my favorite people in the below deck world. You're one of my favorite people. You know, can we talk about you being welcome for stuff? Somebody posted on Facebook the other day, you saying you were perplexed as to why they would name a dolphin a dolphin.

Oh, I did steal that from you. I totally did. You 100% stole it from us. Oh, my gosh. Wait, did she say it should be called a pizza? No. This was a test, y'all. So clearly, I listen to you.

I support y'all. I love your work. But I was like, you know, I wonder if they'll catch that because only if they're supportive of me i don't think you watched galley talk which you didn't you saw it on social yeah no i don't watch galley talk because we'll we'll talk about this but we need to negotiate an appearance i know that it's really just alumnus and stuff like that but you're really i mean you need to talk to them we should be on that show with you

that should be the show yeah just have us come in and do like little snipes or something maybe we come in as a like just for like a five minute segment yeah and pat would be like i'd fuck her and you know i wouldn't say yeah that'd be pat i mean i think you guys would be great and honestly i felt so guilty when i watched the cut and i saw that that made it because i had heard your latest podcast I thought it was so clever so I didn't mean to copy you but I was like yeah that's a good point yeah and then it made it and I was like I hope they didn't see that Kate we'll write for you anytime anytime uh I just think we should be on the payroll as official writers right and uh but galley talk

people seem to be loving it and chat room is going down the tube so huge win for kate huge win for kate uh i mean you know but the only reason i don't watch galley talk is for that very reason i don't want to god forbid one of these sea rats somehow comes up with the gold that i do i don't want any too painful conflict of interest not you uh obviously you could have all you can have all me and sea rat to you i going to send you 10 jokes. Let me know when you're recording next time. Pro bono. It was one little slip.

It was a good point. Cause I've never heard it called a dolphin either. And I've done med seasons. So it was, but I mean, everything else is all original. Okay. You say that,

but we'll start watching. We'll start watching. All right. So we got to get into the show. How do you feel about the season so far miss chesting i love this of below deck med um i wasn't sure at first but um i think the deck crew they really uh pivoted and swung the pendulum from like the misogynist way the other direction they're all so sensitive that deck crew very very good point very

much so i actually have a theory on why they did this and i'd love to get your thoughts on it you probably know some of the ins and outs more than i do i think there this is a redemption tour for malia she's a favorite of the franchise they eventually wanted to be captain on one of their spinoffs so instead of giving her the ashton's the who are some of them party pete they gave her all borderline straight to not straight guys who are going to be really easy and hard working to make her look like a good leader thoughts uh if it were like riley in charge and i love riley she's one of my favorite humans friend of the show but um friend of the show

you know Malia doesn't have a problem with guys because she does handstands in front of them and they all get crushes like I don't think they that was a problem for Malia right well the party Pete is a tough one to contend with I got a question before we move forward because you know I'm not a fan of Captain Timeshare hold on could we have Kate take that again and be like that's a great idea i think that's what

they're doing nick actually nick yeah you're spot on and i might quote you on the next episode of galley talk fridays at eight seven central okay you're welcome to it the audience the barnacles know i'm not a fan of captain lee although i'm starting to come around on him, but Captain Sandy I've completely given up on. Has she ever tried to fill your head with all her self-help nonsense that it seems like she's really gone to Tony Robbins seminars this season

and it's basically encompassed her entire... Next stop, uncomfortably new veneers. You know? I don't feel like they're new. I mean, I did not i mean i did no i'm just saying her next step in uh self-help guru evolution is i feel like i never heard her talk like this and then this season it feels like everything is something she read last night in some kind of self-help gurus hey jules sister what's up girl hey i saw yours so it triggered me um well i'm

sorry guys were you not aware of sandy's I Believe Tour back in 2018? I mean, this is not a new thing for her. And also, you all trust me, right? Yeah. I really like Sandy a lot. And I've met her. She's a very good captain in real life. Like, on the show, I know,'s got she's very polarizing at best

she in real life she's a great captain she drives the boat very well and she's like a cool sweet authentic person i hate to burst your bubble she's i like her the bubble is not opinion the bubble is not burst i mean we we trust your opinion that doesn't mean we have to agree with you i mean we have eyes hearts and people probably tell Kate, especially that horrible PR person that worked at Bravo, that we were horrible. And despite that, she loved us. Kate loved us. So maybe I have to take a second look at Captain Sandy.

I don't think you do. I appreciate Kate being an island. And despite us just tearing down the character and work ethic and abilities of some of her best friends in the world, she still will join us we call them sirat she loves amanda not just you the entire internet is like they're i'm not changing their opinion of sandy they're just liking me less like but i mean you know what i'm i stand by it that's a loyal friend uh all right so what thoughts and knots, all that stuff, or should we just jump into it?

Let's jump into it. Okay. So we begin with Lexi thinking that it is ridiculous that she got demoted. You were leaving Formula 409 in people's rooms and bursting in when they're naked. You're kind of, you're tampering that down, tamping that down a little bit. Let's remember, she didn't just leave 409. She turned that into her broom closet. That's true.

It's completely ridiculous. People are paying $60,000 a day. You can't turn their rooms into closets. And then when they try to shower in the broom closet, you get pissed at them. Yeah. So, Kay, what would you have done if you were in Katie's situation on that first night?

I know that you can't judge people off of one bad night, but Lexi seems to be. Oh, I can. I love judging people. Oh, okay. Great. Have you watched her on the show? I have gotten that question so many times on social media from people I've seen in the real world. They're like, what would you do with Lexi?

And for the first time, I'm like, I have no answer. There is, because there is no right answer, like, for Lexi. There just isn't. I mean, I would no answer. Because there is no right answer for Lexi. There just isn't. Because of the quarantine and stuff like that? Pardon? Is it because of quarantine that you would be in more of a pickle? Because if you could just get somebody else on, wouldn't you just shit can her?

Oh, yeah. I would fire her. But I thought people meant besides fire her, how would you manage her? But yeah, I just fired her. I'm going to say something controversial. Kate, you got the checkmark, thought people meant like besides fire her how would you manage her but yeah i'm gonna say something controversial kate you're uh you're you got the check mark so you can't say anything about this but we can yeah uh i really feel like so moving on uh we begin if you ever want to agree

with us but you don't want to say anything hit your jewel well that's not okay great so uh the person who is muddying up the aforementioned ranks is a young woman named delaney um frankly i'm a little disgusted in our fans you know we saw a lot of chatter going oh i bet the boys are gonna be ripping on this one we're not gonna make fun of things like speech impediments okay we make fun of voluntary plights like sexual orientation or mental illness we're not gonna go after her for this. You're taking the words out of my mouth. We learn about Delaney's past or basically her upbringing or childhood. I was writing notes that she talked through her teeth closed and it was very distracting.

I was going to have some fun with it. And then she tells us pricks like me ruined her childhood. And I realized, well, that's not going to work out. You said something very specific, though, Dylan. You weren't going to allow involuntary disabilities or whatever. She admitted to worsening the disability so she could skip second grade. It was so short sighted. For some Cheerios and extra recess time?

That's ridiculous. I am going to rip on her. And it's called roticism when you cannot say your R's and you say W's. My nephew, Charlie, has it. But he, unlike this woman, is working hard to improve it. All right. Right. I think it's disgusting what she did, especially you're going to go into media studies.

What a genius maneuver. We're talking about PC culture and not like that only helper. They're like, oh, you have a speech impediment. You're going to be the anchor on the evening news. Right, right, right. Your thoughts, Kate. His name's Charlie. Yeah.

And he can't say ours. I know. If only you could wait until you hear children speak before you name them. Okay, two or false. Aren't girls with lisps kind of hot, though? Or like, you know, it's like or like a little speech something it's like i you know i hadn't thought about it but you know nick bringing up her rhodesis myopia at seven i just can't get over that you know the short-sightedness of that little child it's just it's too much i can't i can't even think about how attractive she is i'm

so appalled by her gypsy like fucking scam um but yeah delaney i'm just very very confused about this whole hiring thing um see a captain sandy she didn't do her due diligence so so we didn't want to ask if the person you're sending over know how to fold towels yeah so the sea rat hiring and firing and sea rat life continues to be one of the most perplexingly nonsensical things I've ever seen. Why is this person hired despite having no experience whatsoever? Well, she was hired with experience as a deckhand. I know, but I'm asking Kate, was she's brought on to fold laundry? Why in God's name was she brought on to do that? I mean, at this stage, anyone will do if anyone

can fold towels, we're hoping. I mean, even Chef Mila could have. Not that she would have, but they don't need somebody, a sommelier on board. They just need someone to transfer from the washer to the dryer. All right. Yeah. So she can learn laundry is the thought. But what about the crippling resentment and unhappiness uh you know poisoning this overqualified employee it's just it's very short-sighted but anyways um we'll talk about her a little later i think the most important thing is that she wants to be on tv so the towels i think she's gonna be fine what she did at the tail and not to get ahead of myself was machiavellian. You were fired. Hey, wait a minute. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Turn the lisp to 11. Whoa, whoa, whoa.

What are you giving me that face for? I was just looking at Nick's cute dog. Sorry, I zoned out. So we quickly mentioned folding towels. I would be remiss. I had to bring this up to Kate. How about the vindication after Jeff Bezos launched the rocket that was modeled after your rocket towel?

Thoughts? I know. I love to say I told you so, even if it comes seven years later. Yeah. You know? I don't know. Deep cut for the audience. Kate used cold towels to make it look like a dick.

It's not that deep cut. I mean, Kate, have you brought any cease and desist or anything? Are you guys in a legal feud or anything like that? No. Actually, it's all happening in my hometown. So I'm pretty sure that all I have to do is be like, watch season two, episode two, and I'm going to work for him. You know? Well, just a little bit more space talk.

Are you going to go to the launch of Artemis 1 this fall? That's pretty exciting. NASA getting their rocket program back. If Jeff Bezos takes another flight, sorry. I mean, so Colonel Bellows on I Dream of Jeannie, based after my grandfather. My dad was a scuba diver for NASA. At this, I mean, launches for us are not,

I mean, people fly in, but it's kind of like not that big of a deal. Yeah, of course I'm going. Well, that hurts because NASA is finally getting back in the space program. They haven't done it for a while. So I think you should look into Artemis 1. i think you all should i talked to a pr person from nasa the other day and i have a lot of knowledge hey can i do three meanwhiles yes

well first we need your first meanwhile is going to be sandy telling katie in front of the new employee that it's her decision whether or not she wants to come on board and i want to ask you about that kind of leadership and thought leadership. It's one of the most painfully awkward things I've ever seen on this show. Sandy, Jan, what's going on with this call? Can you break it down a little bit? Well, yeah. She basically says, well, we learned that she has no experience on boats actually doing anything on the interior. But because she graduated college, so I'm pretty sure she'll pick up pretty quickly the tasks of laundry making beds uh washing towels and doing the dishes right so then she leaves it to katie

so you you figure this out i know i made a ridiculous phone call where i didn't ask any questions then i brought someone on the board that would be a grenade within the infrastructure of of this business by uh lessening the tips for everybody also moving everybody's bunks and dislocating everybody right but now you you figure this out kate whoa whoa whoa slow your roll pat boast and pat expert captain boast and pat with so much sea time and so much time working on a yacht listen sandy i feel like in your mind is like damned if she does, damned if she doesn't. You know, it's like, oh, so Sandy decided for her,

totally took her, you know, authority for her interior team away from her. Like there is no right answer for Sandy in your mind. I mean, Sandy's letting Katie decide because Sandy's focused on driving the boat. Katie knows her interior. This is Katie's job. Like, honestly, if I were the chief stew, I'd rather the captain be like your decision.

Because if the captain makes a decision, I'm like, you're in the wheelhouse. What do you care? That's fine. But I don't think, you know, once Lee is done playing Fruit Ninja, he puts his phone down and he comes to you and says, I just beat my high score. Also, we're thinking about bringing somebody else on. It's your call. That's done in private.

And also, ad nauseum, we've already had this conversation. Why do you need to bring the Sea Rat up to, what do you call this fucking room? The bridge. you need to bring the sea rat up to what do you call this fucking room the bridge why do you need to bring the sea rat in front of the lead sea rat to decide the sea rats fate it's very fucking awkward it's bad leadership maybe it's so that the lower sea rat knows that you know this was a call from the captain it wasn't the chief sea rat saying making a excuse or a lie like, oh, it's the captain's, captain let me decide, but you know, it was her idea. Like the captain's just, you know,

you know, it's kind of fair. Kate, don't you think there should be more thought put in when you're going to invite an extra employee on the boat that's going to affect everybody's money? I think there just should have been a lot more thought.

Nick has thoughts. Nick has thoughts. Oh, I would have fired Lexi right away. There you go. I would have been like, one day try out. She's got a better attitude. She hasn't pissed off the entire crew.

She's doing the job and she's not taking naps, eating chips, leaving caddies, throwing sass. Saying the guest smell out loud. I have to say, Kate, once again, I respect your loyalty and career management networking skills to not talk shit about Captain Sandy,

but she should have told Katie that in private. But you do bring up a good point because if Katie did do it in private, she would have talked to Delaney and she would have been like, Captain Sandy says we can't keep you. I'm sorry. It was not my choice.

All right, we got to move on. I got to do three meanwhile. Yes, do the three meanwhile. Meanwhile, Chef Spaz is annoyed by the preference sheet. Meanwhile, Katie chats with Court to comfort her because she's crying. Right. Meanwhile, Deckhand Dave continues to believe

he's into women. Okay. All right. Do you think David and Lloyd are a perfect match, Kate? I think they should date. I think they're quite darling. But I think we've seen this before on previous seasons where there's like kind of a bromance

and you're kind of wondering if it's more than a bromance. My dad calls it muskrat love when your guys are like trapped out on a boat for too long. Yeah. I mean, that's what Ang Lee wanted to call that movie. There's a song called Muskrat Love by Captain Antonio. Yeah. The working title for Brokeback was Muskrat Love.

That's the one at sea. Yeah. Yeah. You said Ashton and Ross. Ashton and Ross gave me some pretty, you know. Muskrat vibes. Muskrat vibes. And then like even on the med, that Jack guy who's so hot and somebody else, like they

were like broken hearted when one got a boyfriend or girlfriend or something. Oh, you know, it's very, very similar because Travis did swing both ways and the Scouser was British and didn't. And super cool, so probably bangs guys. We've always talked about how that's the pinnacle of cool. Bisexuality is the pinnacle of cool. Okay, quick question. Have you heard from Ashton or Ross?

No, not a chance well i mean i i have ashton blocked on pretty much everything ross ross ross will facetime me at like three in the morning about once every five months good good good good that sounds about right i got a late night dm from him he's like bro i got a story for you when can we talk and i was like yeah like let's talk and then we didn't hear from him but all right so really quickly about matt and his uh complaining about the dietary restrictions it's so funny like really good chefs they do not give a fuck you know they are working in metropolitan areas. Gluten sensitivity is swimming all around them. It's the new normal.

It's don't worry about it at all. We'll fix it for you. It's fucking pizza cookers in Ohio and people like Matt who have huge problems with this. Thank you. Thank you. Finally, I found my place where I can say how I feel about Matt. I think he's like a carny.

Yes, 100%. I don't think he's allowed near playgrounds. I do not trust him. I do not like him. He creeps me out and his food sucks. There's a show social clip, but I agree. And let's,

I mean, I know you're going to defend her, but how about Sandy putting this new woman who can't say her ours in a cabin with him? Yeah. Jesus Christ. Yeah, that is, that is fish in a barrel. I mean r's in a cabin with him yeah jesus christ yeah that is that is fish in a

barrel i mean god it's called life i had a cabin with a 55 year old russian engineer and it was not pleasant i mean you just move forward and leon for a while god that was that's true that was awful get over it all right are we going to talk about courtney coaching up delaney um no i have a note on that. Okay. So Courtney starts coaching her up and we learned that she was a valedictorian of her class. And then I was thinking, then how did you become a sea rat? And then I thought being a sea rat doesn't mean you're dumb. It means your father was an alcoholic and he beat your mother. Right, Kate? Except for Kate. Right, Kate? No, I just, I didn't know what I wanted to be when I grew up.

Right. I remember our very first time we had Kate on. Kate, she had expressed how I was like her favorite in terms of just like listening to us and stuff. And then I offended her by saying, just a yachtie or something. And then we were like butting heads the rest of the time. And I was like, I was so sad. But we've mended those fences and now now he just ruined that fence oh no no Dylan offended me another time and I think I

mean I'm sure Patrick has I mean that's part of like you know our banter first time we met you walked up to me and you said are you the one that called me a bitch he was the one that said that so we have to move on and then i was jealous because kate and kate and uh dylan wanted to go out and smoke cigs together and i didn't smoke cigarettes but i was like and that's when you started we're trying to get off this planet quick me and kate we know what we're doing so lexi at one point says um why doesn't Katie just demote herself? What are you fucking thinking? Alright, so the huggers arrive at Lady Michelle.

I love these bitches. They seem young and hot and demanding and they just seem like they're going to be a really really fun time. Oh, it's going to be fun and you know who couldn't be happier about it? At this moment, some math here, there are eight female crew members and now we got eight no no no

we got eight guests sandy's a fucking kid in a candy store this is this is charlie sheen at a strip club with a bucket of bolivian shea i mean i could literally see her elongated labia poking out of the top you have to stop talking about her labia you have to you absolutely fucking have to stop i agree with dylan i think you should stop talking about that because um when you have you seen captain sandy's girlfriend yeah she's hot she's so gorgeous i think i don't think captain sandy's looking at anybody else she's pretty into her girlfriend yeah talking about fucking bat wings and shit you have to stop what a fucking baller jesus captain sandy is all right okay sunglasses inside calm down we have to talk about um courtney really stepping into her role she finds one of these drunks hanging off the side of the boat shaking her ass and says rightly

hey what's going on here can you not while we're fucking going at 15 knots it's very very unsafe you could fall down and get hacked to pieces by the myriad blades underneath this vessel yeah i have to i great use of myriad is that was the fist bump i don't know if it was uh but honestly i was pretty impressed by courtney i mean that that's stepping up yeah she didn't have to do that she's interior i would have let that bitch fall off the boat. I'm always impressed by Courtney. I love Courtney. I love Courtney, too.

And even more impressive, she might be, by the end of the season, setting the record for C-Rat breakdowns. No one cries alone more than Courtney. Kate, have you worked with any of these people before? No. No. No. No.

No. Why did you say it like that ask me to come work with for her um like a few years back but no i haven't yeah but you knew to not work for her so anyways um it's revealed that delaney interviewed as a deckhand her cv is all deckhand. But most importantly, like we said, she really, really wants to be on TV. I don't know what's really going on here. Berkeley, psychology, media studies. Yeah, it's just it's very, very confusing to me. Her her sudden appearance on this show. She's a redheaded psychology major.

I know, but I like what you said i i don't like to judge a book by its cover right but if it says redhead who studied media studies at berkeley i'm not i don't like that book i'm not gonna read that book right right right god i messed it up it could have been a harder punch line that would have got a laugh i feel like what you're doing great oh no i've been doing good i've been doing really well all day i i know that it was so good i was just trying to think of a better one that's why i was like all right so uh let's get to lunch i i feel like he's saying i'm not doing good what no i just said you're doing great are we gonna be more awkward about this do you want to keep talking about your performance on this here live podcast yeah was that we move on it was an a plus plus and it just got knocked down to an a plus okay so 70

knots nick uh i think that's about on a scale of 65 let's get to lunch we have a deconstructed blat with uh ranch right up nick's alley um dylan what i need to talk to you about matt's food right now all right let's talk about it. Deconstructed everything. They're just called ingredients, you asshole. Well, they're deconstructed things that are deconstructed inherently. So you can't deconstruct a caprese. You cannot deconstruct a cob. It's already a platter of shit on top of one another.

I mean, it's already deconstructed. We talked about it. a platter of shit on top of one another. I mean, it's just, it's already deconstructed. We talked about it. Constructed Caprese would be better. Which I would do. Innovative. I would do it like a watermelon feta salad where they do the very even cubes and they do it like a checkerboard, except I would do that with the tomato.

I mean, you know, make it beautiful and perfect. Right, right, right. He doesn't have the knife skills. I,

I hate this guy more than both of you. I, I don't want to get ahead of myself. But when he almost lit himself on fire, I'm like, this will be very entertaining. I hope he fucking burns if it wasn't going to take down the entire vessel. OK, so here's the thing with me and lunch. The lunches have been as the dinners have been as well. But the lunches are especially chewy bullshit. I'm thinking of just retiring food reviews for lunch unless something really

strikes my fancy or tickles it i should say i don't know what i'm doing here talking about fucking blats and sandwiches it's your job dude caprese and surf and turf every fucking night 50 pot so um the girls head out for drinks while matt tries to burn the boat down. The noises of his pain are so creepy. I know I really don't ever give him a fair shake, but he burns his hand and he's like, oh, oh. Have I ever told you guys about the mason jar video? No.

Kate, have I ever told you about the mason jar video? I am dying to hear. Tell me, please. So there are these videos that go around the internet when you're a high school kid. You always have that one friend that shows you the fucked up stuff. Cake farts. And there was cake farts, stuff like that. Two girls, one cup. Give me a claw, too.

There was one particular video where it was just a mason jar set against a beautiful, angelic white background. And then all of a sudden, you see an old scrotum kind of come into the top of the frame and it is a man and he has his uh anal cavity spread so so open and he sinks down and swallows the mason jar with his uh with his butt and then uh it's a really impressive feat but then then as he, you know, lurches himself upward, things contract and the mason jar pops inside of his butt. And slow droplets of blood start to kind of run down his legs. And you just hear him go. And it reminds me of Matt.

Reminds me of Matt. Oh. I haven't told you guys about the Mason Jar video. No, but I'm so glad that you did. So he reassures Sandy that this is not a knee situation. We know. Shut up. It never was a knee situation, you little bitch baby.

But he meant by he was admitting his fault there though by knee situation he made he meant made up injury fueled by my anxiety and inability to cook oh the grown man gets bonus points for admitting he lied about an injury that caused the whole crew money

tips time energy oh yay yeah by the way I like how he acts. This isn't that, Sandy. Don't worry. He has the bravado of like he's a fucking hero for pushing through this. Like, hey, dude, you ever watch the show Chopped? People burn their fucking fingers on there.

I've seen a couple people fucking chop their fingers off. They go to the dessert round. Right, exactly. You have to go to the dessert round. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I've cut my finger down to the bone and I kept making beds. Season four, I practically cut my entire Achilles heel off and we just powered through. I still can't wear loafers on my right foot.

How'd you do that? There's like some metal hanging off the stairs going out of the crew mess and it sliced it. Oh my God. If sea rats were more litigious, they'd all be millionaires. Honestly, I think that's why we always film in foreign countries. my god if sea rats were more litigious uh they'd all be millionaires because that doesn't sound honestly i think that's why we always uh film in foreign countries oh yeah 100 all right so um dr t heads on over to the boat um she may not be darian but this woman is a star her name is dr t she has a cool calm disposition and she diagnoses this as a second degree burn um to which matt says i can't quit because of this well yeah obviously you can't

quit you burned your middle finger you put a fucking club on keep making chicken parmesan it's not that big of a deal um all right so dinner is up next we have bacon wrapped dates the tgi fridays of upscale apps we also have chicken parm gnocchi alfredo and matt's favorite tomatoes and cheese um deconstructing a prey say yeah i'm gonna go ahead and give it 27 pots i i'm getting fatigued um so katie comes down tells matt despite the objective horror of what you put out, they love it. They're starving. And he goes, really? They didn't say, is the chef phoning it in because he burnt his finger?

And Katie just completely ignores it. She's like, what's for dessert? Birthday cake. This cheap fuck. So, Kate, how much of an impossibility is it to move everyone's bunks in the middle of a charter? It's hideous. It's awful. It's the worst case scenario.

Honestly, I feel like this whole no co-ed bunk thing, if I were the chiefs too, I'd be like, you know what? Tell the management company. I feel like that's politically incorrect because some of them actually identify as they oh nice you know i would just be like let's let's reconsider that y'all right see that's thinking on your feet right there that's why kate made the big bucks that's why she's the queen of the sea i would have pulled that audible right there and i would have shut that fucking management company down. Problem solved. Yeah, and also you've got to think about Marvin, too, you know, who has to now room with Matt, the guy who cried to him and apologized after he spent the night ripping down GoPros.

You know, that's just not good for anybody. Yeah, and also you've got to think about the fact that we're at, listen, we do the job because you're with a bunch of traveling single people that pretty much drink alcohol and hook up with each other. Like, no one really has a problem with a co-ed bunk. I prefer it because they spend the guys spend less time in the bathroom. Like this management company, they don't know what they're doing. All right.

So Matt continues to mope about his finger. He says Courtney asks him on a scale of one to ten. What is it? He says it's an 11. says Courtney asks him on a scale of one to 10. What is it? He says it's an 11. Have you ever tried to piss out a crystal or been shot in the stomach, Matt?

Huh? Either one of those things. You know what I mean? Or giving birth to a baby. Yeah, exactly. Without crying like a little bitch. Have you ever pushed out a human and had your taint ripped from vaginal cavity to butthole? Because that happens, Matt. And that's an 11, okay?

Pigeon. You know what disgusts me about him? It only came up in like, no, it came up in two episodes. We're going so hard on him tonight. Him talking about his sex life and dropping $150,000 on sex workers or some shit like that. Like, who's fucking this guy? Well, paying clients.

Yeah, yeah. I don't think he has $150, uh so i'd have sex with him for 150 grand i would too i'm not even sure i would okay so uh let's get to the next day next morning sandy heads on over to katie and says hey i'm not doing anything boats park you want to have another chat? Sandy's employee says, I don't want to keep this woman on. To which Sandy replies, ask her if she wants to stay on this television show. And if she says yes,

you've got to move every single person into a new room. Brilliant leadership. And bring out that calculator for the tip meeting because you're going to move every single person into a new room. Brilliant leadership. And bring out that calculator for the tip meeting because you're going to need it. Yeah, exactly. Listen, I'm going to defend Sandy one more time because here's my thing. I've had stewardesses that were just as bad, if not worse, than Lexi.

At this point in the season, Katie knows what she's working with. There should never have been a complaint about service or anything because you know that's why you get up and you like there's katie needs extra help i've never gotten a fourth stew yeah i guess i'm just i'm just blown away by this whole thing it's crazy so um maureen's death is a sad one and shows a real sense of humor among the staff, you know, joking about this inflatable thing like it's a dog. I had a completely different take.

Make the shows shorter if you don't have the goods. I don't need five minutes of this fluff. Got it. All right. So the rain is coming down in the form of water and the staff's complaints about moving six people around, this causes katie to vomit um i i just feel so bad for her she's so stressed out um she's no queen of the sea too much she cares too much so what would you have done you would have just said everybody get your shit out

of your room she said she would have fired if on the first day she saw that this new girl was doing great she say lexi uh you're on the next plane back to wherever the fuck you came from right okay that's management right there you try to please everyone you end up pleasing nobody all right so uh she pulls katie pulls delaney up to the bridge and says goodbye to which Delaney says I want to be on TV though so we've got a problem here I really respected Delaney in this moment like Katie was giving her the old it's not you it's us you know you're great um you're gonna find another boat and Delaney's like no right I've been doing my job, ho. So this is going to be uncomfortable conversations, but I'm sticking around, so suck it up.

Well, the end of the episode kind of ends in a storm of sorts, but do you have any final thoughts? She was just like, I'm a woman and I have a disability. Good fucking luck. Right. All right, so that ends our recap with the Queen of the Sea, Kate Chastain. Hey, Kate, do you want to tell us anything that would spoil the entire season for anybody listening? I mean, of course I do, but I can't.

You'll have to watch Galley Talk Fridays at 8, 7 central on Bravo TV. And, Kate, where can people follow you? You have legions of fans, and you should have even more. They can follow me at Kate underscore Chastain on Twitter and Instagram. And my dog Halo is now the star of Galley Talk, and so he's got a dog named Halo. We're really trying to get him that Purina clap. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

He deserves it too. If Halo, who seems to be doing pretty well on the social media, I'm going to be honest, Chewie, though, despite being cute, has struggled to get some traction. If Halo wanted to maybe repost Chewie... Yeah, you guys do a collab. ...for fellow dog lovers, Chewie would not be pissed. Pat, do you have any...

No problem, but you know what? I don't know if Chewie's going to agree with this. You know what Halo has finally realized? I wish he realized it sooner. He's a troll. If anybody talks any shit on my instagram my cute little 12 pound havanese dog he goes in he's like uh hey joe blow i'm neutered and i've got bigger balls than you like halo is right right all right i think that is a lot of chewy's problem he. He's too vanilla online. He's not really mixing up like that.

He needs a little bit more bite like Halo. They should talk. Maybe Chewie will pay for a consult from Halo. Has the government approached you guys about your sentient animals? No. We're trying to keep it under wraps, but I guess we're not. What kind of animal was that? I think I said the wrong word, but regardless,

they're terrifying creatures that use their non-opposable thumbs to troll're on social media. What kind of animal was that? I think I said the wrong word, but regardless, they're terrifying creatures that use their non-opposable thumbs to troll people on the internet. One last question, and this pertains to Halo. Francie Clark wants to know, hey, Kate, Queen of the Sea, you going to get another dog to keep Halo company? Yeah, maybe eventually, but really, that sounds like more trouble for me, so he's fine. Yeah. And by the way, Dylan, you always struck me as a cat person.

I knew it. You would be. Hey, have you ever listened to Adrienne's podcast, Why on Earth Doesn't She Like You? I don't even know who Adrienne is. Oh, she's so nuts. I've never really met her, but everybody from the first season, production, cast, everybody was like, so what was she like? And they all said the same thing,

like, with this very strange, like, she's just a psychopath. And like, I, I thought they could use better descriptions, but she really is,

uh, shameless and boundless in her lies. She like, went on, she said something like, the reason I didn't like her was about some guy, like, like, that was ever an issue.

Would have been an issue if it were true, you know? I agree. So she does a Below Deck podcast. We'll need to take her out, Kate. We've taken everybody out. I don't think you guys have to worry about her, I mean, at all. Well, no, we won't worry because we will execute her IP. Podcast, yeah.

Listen, she'll do it to herself just like she did her first season of Below Deck. I want to have her on our show and just talk about how much we love you. I'm sure she already knows because she listens to everything. She's like the crazy ex-girlfriend of Chief Stews. This woman's season one Below Deck original, and she just started a podcast on it. Give it up, woman. All right. Well, love you, we do.

We can't thank you enough for joining us. We'll talk to you very, very soon. Everyone, watch Galley Talk. You will find a lot of our hilarious material repurposed by Kate, and it's just a great show. Support Kate in everything that she does because she is the queen of the sea and this show. We love you.

I'm Dylan saying goodbye. Nick, say goodbye. Goodbye. Pat, say goodbye. Bye guys. Say goodbye.

Bye guys. Love
