RHAP: We Know Survivor - Club Condo Survivor 48 Ep 11

Episode Date: May 13, 2025

This week, Rob and Chappell discuss Survivor 48 episode 11 with special guest, Brice Izyah.

Tilt Boogie is a state of mind. Oh. It's like you could call it Club Kondo. You could call it whatever you want. It's just a state of mind. You got me spinning, babe. You got me wild. You're just a sugar-coated sassy

with a cinnamon smile. You got me dancing in your kitchen with a lifestyle move. Every person says I'm purposeful Club Kondo. Club Kondo. So did I full tilt boogie at the sanctuary? You could full tilt boogie at the sanctuary. I don't know if you did or not.

Yeah, that's right. Club Kondo, baby. And we are back for another week. So much exciting, fun stuff going on in the Survivor world. We are so back. Chappelle, Chappelle, how are. We are so back, Chappelle. Chappelle, how are you? Are we back, Rob?

Are we really back? Is there so much fun stuff happening in the survivor world or are we grass picking and trying? Are we driving here in Club Codome? That's enough fun for me, okay? I could use some more fun. I could use some more fun from the survivor episodes, but yeah, anytime I get to talk to you about this show, great. We have to make our own fun some weeks.

Yeah. Well, some weeks being everything since the merge, basically since the merge Tori, we have been making our own fun and I've been having a great time, but I really wish the show would amp up the fun. It is amped up because I mean, this week we had one of the wildest moments in survivor history. Everybody is talking about the moment heard around the world. When David Chappelle for years, you've been telling people stand up. Yeah. David, listen, and I yelled, sit down, Floyd, sit down, David, stop, stop it. People were laughing at star in the background, but look at Cedric. He looks mortified. I love this so much. I don't know if anybody's caught on, but I've been the biggest David

defender in these streets for the last three weeks because I think he's just so funny as a character. I don't think we have many caricatures of people as players anymore on Survivor like we used to. This man, I told y'all, he's right in that coach vein of like, he believes it. He's in, he knows it, but he also believes it. He stood up to salute Mary. We've never seen that done in 48 seasons.

Let me stand to salute you, Chappelle. You gonna stand to salute me? It's just, I thought he was about to run up on him. I thought he was about to go and just like charge Joe. Is that the next step, to somebody leave the jury box? So, listen, I found out, I was listening to a certain podcast with Jessica Lewis, and she said she left the jury box? So listen, I found out I was listening to certain podcasts with Jessica Lewis and she said she left the jury. What? Yeah, she said she walked out. She, uh, I think you were on Y Blank Lost last week and now you are like such a

disciple of Y Blank Lost. The rules have to be followed Rob. The only way to find out about the rules is to tune in. And so, yeah, I listened to YX Lost and Jessica Lewis said when she was on Survivor, they did a family visit and she missed the family visit because she was voted out before that.

But her husband had flown all the way out there and she was so upset during the tribal council that she finally was like, fuck it and left. And Jeff was like, let her go. She's she's grieving. You know, she just, she missed out on seeing her husband. So yeah, people do this.

Apparently the show just edits it out. I would love to know how many times people have just walked out of the jury, but I thought David was spending a lunge at Joe and we were about to have a party and we didn't get that. Also, can I just mention this? This was a great take that I saw from a few people, but let me pull up a tweet. This is from Katherine Callison. Why was Cedric giving Steve from Blues Clues at tribal council last night?

Katherine Callison wants to be me so bad. Yeah. Like I definitely called out the blues clues shirt. I love it. I love that Cedric has something because, make no mistake, the people on the jury are not giving me anything. There are no looks. There's nothing.

We're not getting no big reactions. If it wasn't for David, what would we really even be talking about? Bring him back, bring him back for 50. I know the cast is solidified. Cedric in his real life, little bit more of a poos clues. Poo. Yeah, because he does butt stuff as a job. As a job. This is a profession. Butts. Yeah. Oh no. Wait, Chappelle, somebody's here at the podcast door already?

Oh, I thought we just got a letter. Let me see who it is. Let me look in the podcast peephole. Skadoo! Come on and join us. Yes! It's Eva Kuhn! What's up? Mother, mother, literally, of Austin Lee Kuhn and dedicated RHJP listener. Eva, how are you? I'm good, I'm good. I listen to you guys every week. Okay, hold on. If anybody'm good, I'm good. I listen to you guys every week. Okay, hold on, just, if anybody's confused, Eva is here, not Eva from Survivor.

That's right. Who's gonna say she gets everything? Eva from Survivor shows up here, she's got all the rewards. No, we got Eva Kuhn, Eva. It's nice meeting you, ma'am. Nice meeting you, I'm Chapelle. Big fan of you and your son.

You didn't meet Eva when we were in Brea back during Survivor 45? He's busy. He's busy. He's on stage doing all the things. I know you. I listen to you every week. And obviously Rob, it was my honor to be here today. Yes. Well, we're so honored to have you you Eva. And so what has been your take on Survivor 48? I was, I was never heard so many of my name. Yeah. Yes. It was a, it was a kind of weird that every week I listened to your guys podcast and Eva, every time you hear Eva, it's like me? No, it's not me. I love it. You know? Yeah. You don't mind that there's another Eva because when you play Blood vs. Water with Austin, then you're not going to be the first survivor Eva.

I know. I know. I know. I mean, that's OK. It's OK. I rooting for Eva, but it's don't feel weird I feel like I have so many her names after I told awesome. I feel like I need to lay low for You'll be a big threat when you come on the season that's gonna be fun Yeah, maybe not anytime soon now Survivor 45 where we saw Austin, he was part of the big alliance, but I don't feel like the people were complaining about the big alliance in Survivor 45, the way they're complaining about the big alliance this season. What do you think the difference is Eva?

Well, when I watch Austin, obviously I want his alliance to win. When he's on the big alliance, I never thought, I said, why people were complaining about it? It was so, so natural, I want you to win. But now I understand, Austin, now I understand why big alliance, and people don't like it

because it's not fun for the viewers. So what's the difference? I guess for Austin, they were kind of undercover a lot more. Maybe. Maybe. Yeah. And they were more duos and it wasn't necessarily like they froze out the people on the bottom. Yeah. Maybe they are more likeable, I think.

Maybe. Maybe. Okay, you said it, Eva, not me. Well, I liked that group because it felt like they were plotting against each other in ways that this group does not. It's like in these episodes, we're getting, yeah, I really should make a move, but I'm just too connected to that person. I just, I emotionally can't do it.

I'm not in a position to where I could burn that relationship. Whereas Austin's group was kind of like, okay, well, at some point we're gonna have to burn each other. But when we get to four, we'll figure it out. This group kind of just feels like, no, they're never gonna do it. They have no intention of doing it. It sounds good to do it, but they're not actually gonna pull the trigger. And I think that's for me why I'm not enjoying it as much. Yeah. But you know, everybody wants to win, right? So when you're playing it... That's what we thought. Does everybody want to win though?

They think they can. Not that bad. Yeah. I'm sorry, Eva. I didn't mean to cut you off. I just got excited. That's okay. That's okay. This is my first time on the podcast.

I don't know what I'm doing. Well, you're doing great. Eva, can you tell us a little bit about what you thought when David stood up at tribal council? Well, that was funny. I laughed. Yeah. Was that a good move? I think it's funny to me.

I mean, I never, I see this before. So that's, you know, it's fun. It's fun. Yeah. I think it makes it memorable. I mean, David had a lot of big moments, but I mean, if you're looking down the line for who you're going to bring back as an all-star, people are gonna remember this David moment

more than they're gonna remember a lot of things that happened this season. Yeah, yeah. Now, Eva, Austin, that he is, you know, got into great shape. I remember they showed like flashbacks from when he was a youngster before he was so physically fit

Did he start drinking a gallon of milk a day? Was that the secret to his success? He does not drink milk when he was a little though. He drinks milk. I Remember at nine I have to hold him every middle of night. He wake up He wants a milk and just will not go to sleep I saw I have to hold him go downstairs, get milk for him. One day I told him, I said, Austin, you are too heavy for me. I can't do this for you anymore. The next day he stopped.

Oh, how old was he? He's probably one, one and a half. Oh, okay, he understood. He knew what he needed to do. So, now he just drink a soy milk kind of thing, never milk again. Okay. Yeah. Yeah.

Real. That's how I am too. I don't drink the milk. This is not for me, but it's for David. It's working out. I'm surprised he doesn't come away with any brand deals after this, Rob. We could see him as the milk man, right? Like as the got milk guy, if they bring that back. Yeah, if they bring that back or, you know, any of the different dairy products

that are out there, why not? Right? Yeah. The face of it. Yeah. Now, Eva, my mom watching this season, she loves Joe. Joe is her favorite by far. OK. She says that, you know what? Why don't we ever get a nice guy who wins? She said about Joe. How do you feel about Joe? I like Joe. I mean, he lives Sacramento very close to where I live. Bay Area. Maybe meet him. But you know, when you're watching it, I want somebody to make a move on him. But if he made an end, he win, I'd be happy.

Yeah. Yeah. I agree. Like right now it's boring. But when we look back at the season, sometimes it's good to be like looking back at the winner and say, well, at least I'm happy for that person. You know, I'm happy that he was able to pull it off. Now, for my viewing pleasure, I would love for the New Blind Side, him and Eva, I want

them to make it off. Now, for my viewing pleasure, I would love for the the blind side, him and Eva. I want them to make messy drama. But you know, by the end of it, if he wins, then you know, we say good job and look back. It's like, okay, that was that was honorable. Let's not do that again. Let's get away from that far, far away. Let's make it messy again. Make Survivor messy again. Yeah, it could be a little messy, right? I would like for it to be messy. Yeah. Is there anybody that you were getting frustrated with this season that they're not making a move? Yeah, I guess I wish, who is it?

Miguel? Oh, Mitch. Mitch, Mitch. Yeah, we'll Mitch, Mitch. Mitch. Yeah. Yeah. We'll make a move. Yeah. But I liked Camilla. I met her. Oh.

Yeah. How was that? You know, it was great. You know, that's a Bryce and Windows event in San Francisco. Oh, yes. Yes. There.

I met a few of them. They are great. Yeah. Now, if I recall, the night that you all got together for the Bryce and Wendell party in San Francisco, that was when Mary hit the shot in the dark, right? Yeah. Yes. Okay. What did you think about Mary then the rest of the season? I feel bad for her that she couldn't make too much of impact after merch. But that night was fun. You know, remember I was in LA and saw Caleb.

Yes, yes, you were the lucky charm. Next time you have a watch party, I need to be there. Then somebody will make us shine the dark. Yeah. No, that's a good, yeah. Cause that was crazy that you were at both of those watch parties. Yeah.

That's probably two times I win. They're both time to shine the dark. Yeah. What did you do for Mother's Day? Did Austin do something nice for you? You know, I'm not a big hallmark of holidays. So both my kids are not here. You know, I'm not a big Hallmark holidays. So both my kids are not here.

So we just had a Zoom call, which perfect for me. Okay, that's like this. So we did the same thing in Boston. Yes, yes. Yes, this is a surprise Mother's Day gift for me. Well, happy Mother's Day to you. Thank you. But you know where I'm going next week in a few days.

Let's see. Next week. Are you going to... Fiji. Fiji? Wait, hold on a second. Eva, you're not saying what I think you're saying, are you? I wish I'm saying what you think I'm saying, but no.

Okay. I don't know. I'm safe, but no. Okay. I don't know. I think the rumor mill is going to be milling after this. I'm there for our 30th wedding anniversary. Yeah. Okay. So yeah, that'd be fun. I wish I can go on the island and check out, you know, you guys play these days playing survivor, but I don't think that they allow me to go there. So you never know. I don't know. Yeah. You got a famous name. Maybe you drop it. It's me. Austin's mom. You remember him. Run her up. You know, maybe that'll get you, you know, backstage with Jeff and he can show you all the things on the island.

Yeah, I don't think so. All right. Well, we'll be waiting with a bated breath to see maybe we'll see Redmond post about you soon. And so great to have you back with us Eva. And anytime you want to come by the podcast, let us know. Rob, you know, it's my pleasure. I was nervous. I'm still shaking. I'm on this podcast. You're such a great supporter of RHJP.

Yes, we appreciate you Eva. And give us a hand. I appreciate you guys. Okay. I appreciate you Eva and give us the Okay All right, take care. Bye. Bye. Bye. Okay. That was for Eva dropping some Nuggets on us. I love that. So she's going to feed you. Yes saying I'm gonna start the rumor But if it starts I'm gonna repost it. You know, I'm gonna reskeet that thing. Make sure people know.

Yeah. This show is sponsored by BetterHelp. Hey everybody, Rob here. Over the years, I've seen the conversation around mental health shift in a big way. And for the better, there used to be so much stigma around therapy, like it was something you only turned to when things were falling apart.

But now, more people are starting to see therapy for what it really is, a smart, proactive way to take care of yourself. Still, I get that it can feel tough to take that first step. A recent survey showed that 26% of Americans avoid seeking mental health support because they're afraid of being judged. That hesitation doesn't just impact individuals.

It affects families, workplaces, and entire communities. This Mental Health Awareness Month, let's normalize asking for help and encourage the people around us to prioritize their wellbeing. The world works better when people feel better. Whether you're dealing with stress, navigating through a tough transition, or just trying to become the best version of yourself, being the world works better when people feel better. Whether you're dealing with stress,

navigating through a tough transition, or just trying to become the best version of yourself, therapy can help you build tools like setting boundaries, improving communication, and learning to manage challenges in a healthier way. BetterHelp have over 10 years of experience connecting people with the right therapist from a diverse network of over 30,000 plus

Well, I thought the other really fun moment from this episode came when we were everybody was working on the puzzle this week and everybody had to like go through the with a wheelbarrow and then they

had to then spell the word the 13 letter word. And my favorite moment happened when Joe thought he had the puzzle solved. Joe really went through it on this puzzle. Here we go. Joe thinks he has it. Say it, say it, Joe. Got fun betrayal. No, that's not right. No. Joe, what did you mean by that? Got fun betrayal.

I was like, got fun betrayal. I was really trying to figure out what he was going for. I said, if he got this, this man is insane. Yeah, I think it's very subtle from Jeff of like, I'm not gonna try to say whatever you think you have. Like, read it to me, please, cause I don't really know. You're like, why don't you just tell me the word that's on your board?

Yeah, well, he says that. And then when Kyle has his word and it's not spelled correctly, Jeff's like, say it. And Kyle's like, oh, unforgettable? He's like, no, that's not what you got. Maybe you read the word phonetically and then Jeff was like, okay, that's good enough. But yeah, I think Kyle had gotten his R

and his G or something like that on the wrong spot. It was, it was very like everything was like they were rushing so fast and the letters are everywhere and they can't look at them while they're putting them up. So it was throwing off, but got fun. Betrayal has gotten so much play on the internet this week. Everyone's talking about it. I just don't know what Joe thought he was doing. I'm not quite sure what the goal was with Got Fund Betrayal. Yeah. And it's not even the word betrayal is not even spelled right.

That's the problem. I was like, Betrayal. It's like, who was that? Betrayal. That's a Got Fund Betrayal. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know.

Yeah. Also please more survivor contestants, big brother contestants, just spelling words. Like, it's all, we get things like Technotronics. Uh huh. Yeah. Reality TV stars spelling is just getting, that's also getting a lot of mileage these days and it's a classic. It really is.

Make them spell. We did Battle Camp recently and I mean, the words that they could not spell was shocking. Shocking eliminations based on the the easiest spelling words. So yeah I think that you put the cameras on them it makes the the suspense a little bit more suspensy it makes it a little bit more tense and they they can't really formulate words they can't spell words the way they would like to. I don't know don't put a camera on me and tell me to spell either. You know what I'm saying?

Like I thought probably in the privacy of my home. Yeah. I'm a spelling bee whiz. I also have spell check and auto correct all those things now at my fingertips. I don't look, maybe it is betrayal, betrayal, betrayal. Who knows? Right? If this was his real life, Siri would have fixed it and he would have never known he

made this mistake. Yeah. Is that becoming a more and more of a thing for these survivor players where AutoCorrect is fixing everything where you don't even have to know how to spell betrayal or anything anymore? Make them spell more then. Let's lean into it. I think that we have the strong people making a run toward the end. Let's get the strong, smart people some play. You know, let's get to, okay, we might not be able to do a regular puzzle. Maybe puzzles aren't the great equalizer anymore,

but a spelling bee, a spelling bee might be the thing that we need, put them up on a perch or something like that. They spell it wrong, drop them like they do on the challenge. It's been done. And I think it's tried and true. Yes. Was this actually a clever survivor shout out to make the word be unforgettable?

A shout out to the great Natalie Cole. Oh, is that what this is? Well, it is very random, right? Remember when the survivor puzzle words would mean something that had to do with survivor? This just wasn't a word, it was just a word. It was just like,, which is like, we needed a long word. This one works. To me, they didn't put a little, a lot of thoughts

into this puzzle is it had nothing to do with the game or the show that we're watching. Is this a sign Natalie Cole is going to be on 50 unforgettable? She was going to have some speaking lines on that. And I didn't get that either. So I don't know. I don't trust nobody when it comes to Natalie Cole. Bring her back. But that's all. Give us some screen time. Unforgettable. Look at her. Look at my girl. Yeah. One week later, the wand off. Yeah. That's not the jacket though, Rob. Is it? I mean, there's no way that's the jacket Angelina wanted. I think that's the jacket, right? That's the jacket Angelina wanted. I think that's the jacket, right? That's the jacket. I think so How many jackets did she have? I'm just saying, oh look these people got a lot of clothes on

Survivor these days Rob. Back in your day, they used to have y'all out there and nothing, but these people got outfit changes, wardrobe changes. To be fair, I'm not even like somebody that can't come completely like back when I played that when I played in survivor, the Amazon, I had so much clothes like smooth all-stars, but they gave us very little survivor. And I had the most that they said they looked at me and they said, you wait, here's long pants, long sleeves. You have the most clothes out of anybody. Like Boston Rob had like a tank top and shorts like Amber and tank top. That's it. I had a very, maybe I packed that way. Like I was like, okay, I don't want to be cold, but in survivor of the Amazon, I had a raincoat. I had like a

million things. I had a big backpack full of clothes until it all went on fire. Yeah. Someone should go back. Maybe Mike Bloom will do this one day. Go back and kind of track, you know, the seasons where you get something to wear and the seasons where you're out there like Austin, you know, and just struggling, not Austin Lee Koon, but you know, Austin from Pearl islands out there in his draws. Yeah. There's some season where they should give you nothing. Okay. Let me give you some updates about some survivor alumni. Okay. A recent guest on the podcast, the queen Sandra DS tw Twine, couple of quick updates for you. Update number one, Sandra got a bomb pop.

She's so real. Of course she did. I don't know. She looks very, she very happy. $2 million smile for Sandra got a bomb pop. Look, she can afford it. I don't know why this is an update. Why would you look like Lyle? What you doing? Okay. Sandra got a bomb pop. That's what's up.

Sandra got a bomb pop. But okay, that's the good news. But the bad news, Chappelle coming up, Sandra fell. Was it the bomb pops fault? Did she slip on it? She slipped and fell. I don't know what happened.

Oh my God. Look at her leg. She scraped it up bad. Her husband thinks it's funny. Yeah, I feel better saying it, bro. She probably says not again. You know that's referencing Sandra's face plant on Heroes vs. Villains. She was walking down the beach and just like, spunk.

People don't talk about that moment enough. I think Sandra's a little clumsy. Maybe that's not why she's not so great in the challenges, historic kind. But Chappelle, I guess there's a reason why we're talking about Sandra had a bomb pop. Sandra fell, uh, you know, the survivor has kind of, uh, survivor worlds has kind of slowed down a little bit. Maybe, you know, eyes are on the future. People are sort of feeling like that we're a little bit maybe stalled in the

present. And so it's gotten a little dicey over on the survivor subreddit. Oh no. You know, I'm terrified of that place. It's like an elephant graveyard. You should never go there. You should never go there. But I think we can talk about it. That my question for you tonight, my thesis is, is Survivor Reddit down bad? Okay? We have, our researchers have pulled a few posts from the Survivor subreddit today to give you a sense of maybe, has it gotten that bad?

Okay. Exhibit A. sense of maybe has it has it gotten that bad? OK, exhibit A, we have a post from today that says. The only person who came to play Survivor this season was Chrissy. In what way? Chrissy got voted out just pointing out that it's dumb for everyone to literally give the same strong alliance to give the game to a strong Alliance on a silver platter. People treated her comments at the last two tribal councils, like she farted during church service, bet the others wish they listened now. Upvotes for the only person who came to play survivor this season was Chrissy. That's

interesting. How do you feel about that theory, Rob? I don't think that's Chrissy was the only person that was here to play survivor this season, especially on a season where, you know, you had say who is out there. You know, I think that Mary did come to play hard. Yeah. And then there's also the Alliance that's running the game with Eva and Joe's like, like they're playingor, they're just doing it in a way that isn't great for everybody else, and they're doing it in a dominating fashion. So I don't really know if we can give Chrissy credit

for being the only one who came to play. But I don't know, I think I just feel like, you know, Chrissy, she chose her spots to play just like everybody else did. There were definitely spots where I thought, maybe Chrissy should be playing a little different. I'm not quite sure how, you know, I'm pretty sure they voted out say when evil was exposed.

And so, you know, Chrissy, if she was playing, that'd been a great time to play. That'd been a great time to be like, hey guys, let's make a move. Maybe not the very next vote when it's you on the chopping block. a great time to play. That'd been a great time to be like, Hey guys, let's make a move. Maybe not the very next vote when it's you on the chopping block. Maybe, maybe, maybe save your allies. All right. So Chappelle kind of down with Chrissy, the only person here to play this

season. She was playing, but other people are playing too. All right. Here we go. Exhibit B is Mary the best player to never win. Okay. Now we didn't loss, okay, we lost the plot. I just feel like- You want me to read the post? Yes, I need to hear the post because Rob, as I'm sitting with one of the former best players

to never win, I think you held that title for, I mean, you held that title for a very long time. I don't know if you've been usurped, but it does seem like it. I would love to know what you think about this as well. I know that some players like Russell and Amanda came close, but the way Mary was able to shot in the dark Justin out of the game and navigate being the target every single round yet never be the one sent home.

She also tried to make a move on Joe made him paranoid and got in his head and their social game with David was so good. He blew up his game trying to get her to be a part of the six instead of Camilla. Had Mary made it to the end, she would have more than a little lamb. She would have had a million dollars with that underdog story. Her game was also complex and had layers,

which simple Survivor fans just won't understand. Damn, I knew I was a simple Survivor fan because I just don't understand how you got Mary, the best player to never win, and she goes out at the final seven? Like, damn, it's people who lost because of a fire-making challenge. It's people who lost because of one challenge. It's people who lost by one vote. And Mary at the final seven is the best to never win?

Let's look at her track record. She lost all her allies in the pre-merge, every last one of them. Every last one of all her allies in the pre-merge. Every last one of them, every last one of them was gone in the pre-merge. That's I feel like they're better players are going to keep some allies around. You know, I just, I'm not saying Mary's not a great player, but the best to never win is a lofty, lofty thing. Not even this time. Yeah. So congratulations to Mary. So if Joe loses, Mary's a better player than Joe? Like somehow she's like, yeah, well, he didn't do half of it. Whoever wins, and then Mary.

And then Mary. And then Mary right after that. Well, you know, last season Rachel was the greatest player of all time, right? Wasn't that the thing that Dama Bate said? I think yes, I believe so. The greatest winning game of all time or something like that? Yeah. So look, sometimes we get thirsty around these parts. We be starving in the Survivor Street sometimes. Alright, one more for you, Chappelle, from the last 24 hours on the reddit.com slash r slash Survivor.

Okay? My pitch for why Banu needs to come back for 50. Turn it up, Fullmetal Troye Zan! Okay. I love them. Yes, talk about it. Every supervillain has an origin story. The first time around, Banu just wanted to win a million hearts. He was overtly emotional and wanted his tribe and God to love him.

And what did he get in return? Score, an isolation and a heartbreaking betrayal by God, a lost vote, an early boot, and the fans whose hearts he wanted to win laughed at him. And this is just the beginning. So why should Banu come back for 50? So we can watch him discard emotions on day one and turn into the most cold-blooded survivor villain in history. Blindsiding all your favorites and sticking it to all the fans who mocked him the first time he was there for a million hearts. Now he's just out for a million dollars. It would be the greatest story arc that's ever happened on Survivor.

Boninator 2, Judgment Day. Zero gods, zero hearts, just money. Mr. Bonds, okay. All right. Release the hounds on these mofos in Fiji and win 50. I love it. Full metal Trojan, talk that talk. Talk that talk.

Say more things. Bring back Banu. Yeah. Beye Sands, talk that talk, talk that talk, say more things, bring back Banu. Yeah. Be, be, be. You're here for it? I am, I am, because what else do we have? What else do we have? Bring back Banu. I think he can't do any worse. I mean, he literally was just, you know, even though he wasn't the first boot, he still was just kind of just like, he was everywhere. And so I think give him a chance to come back and live long enough to be the villain. Okay. Also, Chappelle, have you been following the saga of the IMDB ratings for these different shows?

No. What do you mean? Okay. So that people give ratings for the episodes of different shows. And then sometimes you'll see like this was this episode was the highest rated show of all time. This was the lowest rated show of all time. But when I take a look at the Survivor forty eight rankings, this is the most recent episode. I think it's, it's only a 4.3 out of 10 out of 52 ratings. This is what the IMDb Raiders had to say about this episode. Okay. Boom. Okay. We got a one, a lot of people said, one all time survivor has had definitely had worse episodes for sure. This. This by no means was the worst episode of Survivor.

I just don't think so. I think that there, I mean, the bar is clearly high for this amazing show that we've been watching for so long. But also, there has been some dark, dark times on this show, and this did not even scrape any of that. But I just think we're creatures of the moment, you know? We're really in it. We want to enjoy the season so bad. We want people to make a move, but we're not getting our pound of flesh. And we don't like that here.

Now, she felt, do you know what the top rated survivor episode of all time is? Banana etiquette. No, I mean, banana etiquette is probably on the opposite end of the spectrum as coconut etiquette to be fair, but I feel like they're polar opposites. The IMDB highest rated survivor episode of all time is last season's final seven. This is Operation Italy. It was a good episode.

That was a good episode. It was solid. It was solid. Yeah. I don't know if it's the best episode of all time, but I think that it's definitely in the conversation for the new era for sure. Yeah. So it had a 9.3 rating out of 10. I don't know if any other episodes are going to be that good in this season or like moving

forward. I mean, we only have what? Four more episodes. Maybe three. How many? Oh God. Only two. Oh dear God. There's the final six and there's the finale. Yeah. Yeah. It is wild. Y'all. It's wild. I'm surviving. I don't know. I don't know if it's better to win survivor or have a trash season of survivor. Like what you, which one would you rather? Like you, would you want, you have to win, but you also need your season to be decent. Would I rather win the worst season or... Yeah, this isn't the worst season. No, it's not. Yeah. Would I rather win the worst season or be like...

Or lose the best season. Or lose the best season? Yeah. So like, let's just use two seasons, for example, that we might have used when ranking the seasons here at RGP years ago. Number 50 was Island of the Idols. 40. I'm sorry. Oh, yeah. God, we got to re-rank them soon. Okay, but Island of the Idols was at 40. You could be Tommy. Not awful. You know, he won. And then you get the money, the

check. You get the money. The check is gonna clear regardless. But do you want to get the money? I guess yeah. You could get the money or you could get second place. Second place isn't awful. It's not horrible. You could be second place in Heroes vs. Villains. You could be Parvati. She lost the best season. I think that's a tough example because she's actually won a different season. So I guess, you know, pick a different

best season. Okay. I mean, you could be Lil, you could be Lil. I mean like, yeah, you could be Woo. You could be Woo. You don't want to be Woo. You don't want to be Woo. Yeah. No, I think you got to win. I think you got to win. You know, this is the famous big brother question of like, would you rather win and be hated or lose and be loved? But that's wrong. It's incorrect. The question is flowed, Rob, because in Big Brother, you should absolutely want to lose and be loved. There's no merit in winning Big Brother and being hated. Ask Andy Heron. Ask him. He's right there. Tweet him. Add Andy Heron. He will tell you, if I won, it's not great, not great all the time. There are so many big brother winners

who have won and are hated. There's probably an equal amount of hated big brother winners and love big brother winners. It's probably like 50-50, which is crazy to think of. So no, you absolutely want to lose big brother and be an icon, be Dave Vaughn, every chance that you can have, if you have an icon. Be Dave Vaughn every chance that you can have.

If you have the opportunity to be Dave Vaughn, be Dave Vaughn. If you got to be Maggie, be somebody else. Why do fintechs like Float choose Visa? As a more trusted, more secure payments network, Visa provides scale, expertise, and innovative payment solutions. Learn more at visa.ca slash fintech.

All right, Chappelle, let's switch over to TikTok and I want to show you a video. And I have not seen this. This got put into my notes for our Club Kondo conversation. I thought it'd be fun to look at together. Looks like there's a game that Derek X has going on over on the TikTok, okay? All right, you ready for this? Okay, here we go.

Let's see if we can start this over, okay? Five survivor fans. They could all lie, you know, I don't know. This guy never seen reality TV before. Travis? What's going on here? So Derek X from Big Brother is at a desk with Travis from Big Brother,

and they're trying to guess who was on Survivor, but Derek X's Travis has never seen reality TV before. Derek X loved Travis. Do you remember that? Yeah, this is his favorite person. I was shocked to see Travis pop up, but for Derek X this makes total sense. Yes, okay.

When you were evicted, like what number were you evicted? All right, now, okay. Moose? Moose is here also. What is this? What is happening? Okay, and they're trying to guess somebody was on Survivor. You're on your season?

Oh, it's the winner. Okay. Hmm. We played this game on the Michelle and Kelly podcast. Yes, okay. Y, it's the winner. Okay. Hmm. We played this game on the Michelle and Kelly podcast. Yeah. Okay. There was a guy there impersonating Bruce. Okay. Now do you recognize this man? Uh, yes. That would be a Tony Vlachos. No, he was the winner. He says it right there. Yes. The winner. Of course. Uh, my castmate Dan Lou is here. Dan will be popping up in all the places. Remember when he was a stripper in the Pee Wee Herman movie? Yes. Yes. Joe Manganiello. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. All the strippers were there. Yes. Okay. So Dan Lou is here and he says he's the winner. Winner. I was a third person voted out. Yeah. Yeah you were. Unfortunately for me, I was the sixth person voted out, right? Mm-hmm. OK. He said, yeah, you were. He's like, yeah, he was. Before I made the jury, made the merge,

it was a little tough for me because I really wanted to have that, like, end game story that I knew I could do. Does the merge happen at the same time every year? No. It doesn't. Why are you asking me? Does the merge happen at the same time every year? Roughly. OK. You're asking me? No. Does the merch happen to sing them every year? Roughly.

Okay. Yeah, roughly. I mean, my ace up the sleeve was saying- Yes? This guy's not gonna get cast on Survivor wearing Africa earrings. It's just not the age where that would happen. They're gonna be like, sir, no, no thank you. This is like, they be like, diversity, but, no, thank you. This is like, we like, they'd be like

diversity, but no, not a lot of like just, just enough. That's a little diverse. They're not going to let my man on. He got, you got the Africa earrings and an African necklace. They were like, sir, we're not going, we haven't been to Africa in decades. Have you seen, have you seen Gabon? You know know we stopped going back after that okay what's Derek X gonna guess a 39 season survivor and there's three people here who knew that there was actually 45 so I'm sorry but um Shane and Lance you guys have to fight it out oh really that's how I feel that's how I feel Really? That's how you feel, huh? That's how I feel. That's how I feel.

You think you're the executive decision maker? There's four of us on this game. We're not boxing, right? Really? Okay, the video's over now. What is happening? What is this? They have to guess who the... This is from the moose... We tried to guess who the real Survivor player is on Guess the Survivor.

This is on Moose's TikTok channel. But they didn't even finish the video. Do we have to go to YouTube video to catch the rest of it? Let's see. I love these comments. Daniel, what are you doing here? It's crazy. Yeah. Let me see that Brandon. Do you have any context for what we just watched? I thought they were going to pop the balloon. It's like pop the balloon. It seemed like the set of pop the balloon. I mean, the set of pop the balloon is very bare. Yes. Just stay. What do we watch? So that's just like a compilation of now a 30 minute video on Moose's YouTube.

That's giving you the highlights. 30 minutes that is. This this is like a genre of YouTube video that does like crazy well. I like the guess between which six people is a blank. Why can't we do this? They're a little bit beating us up to this. We did it. I feel like I've done it.

Chappelle and I have lived. I was there. I saw it. We could, yeah, we got to put together a better, you know, we get somebody who's never seen Survivor and we have them guess who did the best on Survivor. That's the money. We need to go to the old school interviewers

that Rob has been talking to. When Rob goes and talks to our old school players, the ones that we know, they are not really watching. They're like, no, well, I peek in every now and then, and then bring in Jalinsky, you know what I'm saying? And bring him in and say, like, does this man look like a Survivor player to you? Like, I just feel like that's where the fun is,

because those people are going to lie and say they've been keeping up with the show in case, you know, that phone rings and Jeff needs them to come back out there, but they're not really paying attention. They don't know who Daniel Strunk is, you know? And I feel like we can parade. Daniel Strunk's not gonna show up for this bit, I don't think.

Well, I could be Daniel Strunk. I was bruised. Oh, you could be Daniel Strunk. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Like who's going to pop me? I'm like, yeah, I should have, I should have went with Jenny Kim, but you know. Yeah. What are they saying in the survivor group chats these days about this season? If you want to know that you got to sign up for chat. Yeah, that's the public chat. What are they saying in the private group chats? Private group chats are saying worse

stuff than judge. Yes. And chat BCC isn't super high. We have, there's no more fun place to be at Wednesday night at eight than chat BCC. We're having so much fun in chat BCC. I know, I know the season 46 people ain't talking. I know they ain't talking. There was like a month where we were like, and what the hell is this? So like, how dare you from the four Banu episodes and then the five consecutive idols not being played since this went out 46. Love y'all. Yeah, it's, um, it's the, the streets are, the streets are dark at these times, but you know what?

We starving. Okay. All right, Brandon. Thank you so much. Okay. All right. Chappelle. Okay. All right, Brandon. Thank you so much. Okay. All right. Chappelle. That's my dog. Hmm. Of course, the final six, we'll see. Kind of the last opportunity for the survivor players to make a move here, unless we're gonna see the,

you know, strong four really take it to four. Do you think that happens this week? The strong four or the move? The move against it to four. Do you think that happens this week? The strong four or the move? The move against the strong four. I'm torn because I've been saying make the move since last week, I was saying, this is the time. We're at seven, make the move. But now I'm kind of anti the move, Rob.

You wanna keep it. I kinda wanna keep the four here. The thing about being what I'm that type of reality since you're a TV fan where I'm anti the move, Rob. You wanna keep it. I kinda wanna keep the four here. You know, the thing about being what, I'm that type of reality TV fan where I'm like, I want you to be punished for not doing what I want you to do. And so because they've not done what I want them to do, I want them to now see what happens. Everybody has to lose.

People do have to do of their own. Yeah, now you have to lose. Everybody has to lose because I said so. You have to go around, now find out. Exactly. And if we miss the now find out part, then they'll never learn. Everybody has to learn their lesson.

They have to learn so when they come back and play, they're like, last time I did it like this, but this time I'm going to do this. Yeah, last time I tried to get a million hearts. Right, this time I'm coming for a million dollars. You know, so that's what I want. I want them to say, damn, I should have made the move. So I'm hoping that Jo wins immunity, Eva uses her idol, and then they go,

look, we did it. Now one of you have to go. And we're like, see? See? Because this is what we used to get on Survivor Rap. You remember those days where it's every week, it would be the Pagonging and like the South Pacific. Every week, we're like, you're gonna be next. You're gonna be next. And then it gets to Edna. And she's like, what, me? And then it gets to Edna and she's like, what me?

And then it gets to Rick, he's like, what me? We're like, yes, that's what we've been saying. That's what everybody's been saying. It's going to be you eventually. It's never gonna be Sophie, it's never gonna be her. Like it's gonna be you. And so we want that. I think that makes the season a little bit more fulfilling

to me if I get that chance of, at least once, at least one of them has the like, damn, it should have been me. I should have made the move. Cause then we can all go, thank you. And feel like they heard us and the survivor guys were listening to what we wanted and gave us a little something. Something. I don't really care who wins the season. I like everybody who's left. But I do want a little fireworks. I want something. Give me some. I'm thirsty. All right. We'll see on Wednesday night. I didn't know if I wanted to talk about this,

but slim pickings in the survivor universe for us to talk about. So let's go there. Okay. Let's, let's do it. Something that I have observed for some time. People have been asking me about a little thing called Rob's Shady Updates. Have you seen this? No. Have you heard about this? No I don't know what we're doing here. What is this? What's going on? In the style of the Star Updates and a Cedric Shady Updates there is an account on social media known as Rob Shady Updates. And they have been trying to get people to follow them, or, they're trying to get me to follow them. And until then, they're then taking my face

and Photoshopping it onto the faces of other survivor players? To me, this is cool. I appreciate the effort, right? I know you gotta get noticed. But to me, they're picking survivor players that we know so well. That's like, you see the picture

and you kind of know exactly who that is. I would like for them to pick more obscure survivor players. Obscure survivor players are my favorite brand of survivor players. Like go in and you know, and just find somebody from the mid aughts or whatever that nobody remembers and put your face on them.

Put your face on Carolina. Put your face on Paloma. You know, like give me something like that. Yeah. So I appeared this weekend on the drop your buffs podcast with Evan Ross cats and Sean Ross and we had a great interview I Highly encourage everybody to check out my interview on drop your buffs

I had a really great time talking to those guys, but one of the first questions I was asked in this interview was from Evan Ross Katz, who asked me about Rob's Shady Updates. Now are you purposefully evading the question of your awareness around Rob's Shady Updates? Rob's Shady Updates, okay. So they started the Rob's Shady Updates, and I have seen it, because I'm tagged

in like a million different posts. And they say that they're going to put Survivors faces with either of you want to get my face Photoshopped onto one of your bodies. It's one of my dreams Yeah, I mean I wouldn't it wasn't three days ago, but it is now like the survivors seems to enjoy it it seems like that they almost that they want it and I feel like that in general, I feel like that people seem to like it. So I think I have, I mean, this position of power where

if I give this person what they want, then they stop doing the thing. But it seems like the people like the thing. Okay. Chappelle this, this segment was tweeted out by drop your buffs Rob Shady updates has responded No Rob sister, you know acknowledges Rob Shady updates for the first time ever drop your buffs He admits to ignoring me on purpose Highlighting his position of power as he's a sick man who enjoys watching me suffer I mean, I mean that's that's always fun. You know, watching someone suffer could get you there if you needed to. It's it. Like the account

says, it's Rob Sester-Meals only Stan. We know that's not true. You got a bunch of them. But I do appreciate people, you know, really putting their foot down and saying, acknowledge me, because I love to be acknowledged as well. I saw a tweet from Dwight Moore. I said, why do good things happen to stupid people? And then Rob Shady updates said, this is Rob's sister, you know, shade into that, I don't understand. Like I don't really, I got to saying like good things happen to you or like

maybe I don't understand, but whatever. Okay. Well, the Rob Shady updates account has been very busy of late. Uh, they've been spiraling. Yeah. Okay. Here is Helen Lee from server 44 with my face on it. Okay. Here's Eva with my face. Obviously here's a Ben. What kind of looks like already? Yeah. I mean, yeah. Yeah. Here's Carla with my face, a baddie. Yeah. Oh, here's Asia, Asia with my face. Oh, Jenna Moran. That's me. Do you know me as Brandon? First glance? Or is it just like, you see the name as well? Here's me as you as David. That one kind of looks like me normally. Yeah. Here's Mary.

That one is pretty good. It's cute. It's what? Yeah. Sam Fallon is that's a good one. That was good. That's a good one. Yeah. Yeah. Mitch. Oh, tell Eva to come back. Here's Austin. I don't think even should see that. It seems like the just Chong. It seems like that the survivors are here's a Quinn. Quinn. Yeah. And I've seen a couple of Saul. Sometimes then they get another person's face. Oh, Jesse Lopez got his face on my body.

He got robbed. Yeah, this looks wrong. I don't know. It's not great. Sometimes it looks like here's me as the pope. The Chicago pope. Mm-hmm. Mitch.

Yes. Our famous Jeff, our famous me. Yeah, Debbie. Oh, wow. It would have taken me a little bit longer to get there. But yeah, I see it. Yeah. So I don't know.

What comes next, Chappelle? I feel like the survivors seem to like it though, when they're following the account, I feel like that they wanna get my face on their body. Now we need, we need merch now. We need merch now. We need pop figures, we need pillowcases, we need all the things now, right?

We're gonna lean into this, you know? I don't, and again, I think, and I still think that the missing, we missing the mark a little bit. These people are well-known faces of Survivor. Go in and find us the people who Rob's like, who is that? Like, that's what I wanna see. I want Rob to have to prove to us

that that's a Survivor player. Who is my face on? Right, it's like a Big Brother game where they do the, you know, the face morph, as they say, who are these people? We need a face morph. It's Rob's face, but we have to figure out whose body it belongs to. Rob shady updates. If you're listening to this, make it happen. Yeah. I did show it also to Dominic, my son, and he was a slightly disturbed. I bet. I bet the Debbie one really threw him off. And like, no, I don't like this.

I don't like this at all. Yeah, Rob, but like, look, I think that you've now acknowledged them, and they're not taking it well. So I think your instincts were correct. Because now that you've mentioned them, I've been seeing them. They're spiraling. They said they need a rebrand. Rob says to me, you know, he's an evil man. I don't know, Rob.

But the survivors are following. I'm looking at the followers. Maria, Austin, Kendra. They're coming out of the woodwork because they wanna get memed. They wanna get you face robbed or whatever. Yeah, there's a lot of money here, which is crazy. Like they don't even come out often to the podcast. Y'all need to just start using the same energy.

Sam Phelan. Yeah. Look at Rome is on here, Gabe, all the heavy hitters from the new era are on here. Owen. They're all coming out of the woodwork. Yeah, so I guess I gotta figure out what my next move is.

Yes, you gotta slow play this. You can't just go out and be like, okay, you win, I'll follow you. Let's bargain a little bit. Let's see what else Rob Shady Update is willing to do play this. You can't just go out and be like, okay, are you in? I'll follow you. Let's, let's bargain a little bit. Let's see what else Rob Shady update is willing to do for us. Yeah. Okay. Chappelle, what else is on your mind?

I don't know, Rob. So I've been really thinking about this season and kind of what, what we, where we are in the standings for this season, what would be the most entertaining, you know, outcome for this. Obviously I do think there's a world where we split up Joe and Eva would be the most entertaining, you know, outcome for this? Obviously, I do think there's a world where we split up Joe and Eva would be very entertaining, but I do like... I do like when everybody gets angry and is yelling about stuff. And so that also feels really good.

So, I don't know, I feel like we've had a low part, a low mark for the season, but there's still opportunities for things to change. We still have the fire-making challenge coming up, we still have the final six vote and the final five. Who knows? And then who knows? Maybe we're reading these jury all wrong and they're gonna come in and reward somebody

not named Joe or Eva. And it's gonna be a very compelling twist to the season. Who knows? But right now, I'm just hoping that we get something. Spice it up. Spice it up. Okay. This was also, Star's been very active on Twitter

these last couple of episodes. Star said, somebody tell this man to sit, TF down. I'm trying so hard not to laugh. Star makes a good point. So Cedric tweeted out something to the effect of, when we're sitting there, David stands up, but it's actually very quiet.

There's no swelling of music. There's no emotional score to go with this. It's just, we're standing, we're sitting there minding our own business and a man stands up directly next to us and just stands. He does nothing. He doesn't make a sound. He just stands there and time is passing and they're just looking at him. Crickets.

You can hear crickets chirping in the background. And all you see is this man standing there. And I just have to imagine this was probably the funniest thing that ever happened. Rob, I could never be in a room like this, because you know me. I'm going to holler. I'm going to scream. The way Star was covering her mouth, stifling a laugh,

could never be me. Joe would have had to say, Chappelle, leave. Like, he would have had to walk me out of tribal council. You would have been like Jessica Lewis. Yeah, exactly. He's like, he can go, let him go. He doesn't, he's not an adult. He can't handle this kind of thing. But David made a moment. Some of these people can't even say they've done that. So I'll give it to him. Give it to him. Great TV. Yeah. Look, David, we, we, we ate. We did. Imagine we didn't have that to talk about this week. There would be nothing to talk about.

We're like, oh, okay, cool. But no, I like this. I miss big characters on Survivor. Yes, we like gameplay, but bring us the people who are like, no, I'm here to make a moment. And people were upset. I love when people get going. I love when the people have something to talk about. This game was something to talk about. Did you like when Joe got mad that Mary was going to vote for him? You know, that was my favorite part of the episode. You know, that was my favorite part

of the episode because Joe, so Joe has never actually considered that he could get voted for. It's just been a long time since that's been an option. And so he forgot that that was a thing that he should be worried about. And so he forgot that that was a thing that he should be worried about. And so Mary comes and she just places her lady parts on the table and says, boom, I'm voting for Joe. And Joe's like, huh? And he's just like, yeah, you know, no disrespect.

It's just, it's you. Well, I mean, look at you, you're gonna win the game. I'ma vote for you. It's a respect thing. You got it. And Joe's like, all right, I'm not mad. I'm not mad at all. And he goes over to Shaheen and,

well, he goes over to Kyle and Mitch. He's like, yeah, yeah, I hear Mary. She says this crazy thing about voting for me. That's wild, huh? They're like, yeah, you probably gonna get a vote. He's like, yeah. I mean, but like, what if somebody, what if like, what if I like split,

like what if I like do a vote on somebody? Wouldn't that be crazy? And they say, oh yeah, yeah, Joe, that would be crazy. Cause who would you be putting a vote on? He's like, you know, man, you wouldn't, I know you would. Yeah. Let me go. Let me go to Shaheen Shaheen. She's like, I'm lucky. I was here for this conversation because if I want to hear, well, what about Mitch? Yeah, you were getting that vote, Mitch. You are getting that vote Joe. And you could see the kind of like the resting, the paranoia that everybody else has had throughout the game kind of entering Joe's body again,

because he's been so relaxed between him and Eva. This episode, basically Sam, we got it. Everything's working out. This is fine. It was, it kind of, it's very mundane. It's just like, okay, this is like, this is boring. Like, let's come on, do something. But to see that glimmer in his eye when the switch goes off, he's like, wait, I have to do something in Survivor? Okay. But also looking around and saying, I actually don't have a lot of options here. Maybe they have me surrounded. What am I going to do? So yeah, even him going to Shaheen was just like, so Shaheen, you know, wouldn't it be crazy if we like threw a vote on somebody else?

Shaheen's like, welcome, welcome Joe. Welcome to the party. As I told David last week, some of us have been doing this for days. So yeah, I loved it. I loved it. And I loved Eva. I loved Eva in this entire episode.

When she goes on her advantage and she does the little game and she's like, I was gonna get to Knowledge is Power, but then I thought about it. I said, self, that's what I call myself when I call myself. I said, self, I don't need Knowledge is Power. I have all the power.

And she comes back to the beach and instead of being like, oh, you know, guys, it was nothing, blah, blah, blah. She said, I'm gonna be completely honest. I'm gonna tell them exactly how I feel. Guys. It was just knowledge is power. Y'all needed that shit, but not me. Yeah. What am I going to do? Steal my own stuff? You know what I'm saying? They're like, ha ha ha ha ha. And Joe's like, I mean, anybody

else would have came back and lied about it, but Eva, nah, she's being truthful. And they're just like laughing and joking their way onto the end. I would be seething if I was watching this happen, but being able to watch it from home, it's been pretty entertaining. I'll give you that. These are high points that I'm taking from these episodes. OK, let me ask you about Shaheen once again. And can you tell me then what what's been your reaction

to all of the Shaheen sound effects? Oh, what? See me know what? That's kind of like become his thing on the show. He's the guy, you know, he inserts like the like tribal sounding little like interstitials to the scene. Max Dawson walked so this man could now fly, you know, at least in this part of like, hey, I'm the fan.

I am the super fan. Look at me. I have so much to where it's jumping out of my skin and I gotta sing about it. I gotta do the sound effects and all that stuff. You're right. Like Jeff would have yelled at you back when you played Survivor,

but now he's like, no, do more of that. Hit it Shaheen. Yeah. And I mean, again, what else do we have right now? This is the season, it's kind of stale. So we gotta look at Shaheen and be like, all right, I'm good for a soundtrack. I really like Shaheen. I think that him, like I see a lot of his reaction,

like my reaction and his reaction are very similar to these. We get very fired up and then we don't do nothing. And so like for him to be like, Joe, are you serious? You ain't been voted for a week. Maybe you've been winning all the challenges, blah, blah, blah. And he'd be like, but I'm going to go to the end with him. I'm like, oh, Shaheen. We love that guy. Yeah. He's fine.

I mean, it maybe feels like that the jury is going to eat this up. I got a million sound effects. Like that guy on Police Academy that used to make all the noises. They love that guy, Michael Winslow. I'm the guy now. It's me. I'm the new guy. Yeah. So he's going to be like the siren. You could do like the walkie-talkie Yeah, and now he's gonna do tribal sounds and hopefully not offend anybody at the final Java Council Yeah, okay. All right, should be anything else on your mind

No Look again, we are here talking about a show that is 48 seasons in, and they gotta try to keep it fresh however they can. And so I support Survivor taking big swings, but when it gets like this, it's tough. It's tough. So we're all in this together.

We're gonna hold each other up in these moments and get through 48. I would say that the 90 minutes does not work in the show's favor in these types of seasons where, you know, it's not the first season where we've had like a slog to the end, but it is the first season that has a slog to the end in the 90 minute era. So it really is much more of like, is it, is somebody going to do something? Pull the tape. I've been saying survivor didn't meet, need to be 90 minutes long because of like, is somebody gonna do something?

Pull the tape. I've been saying Survivor didn't need to be 90 minutes long because we spend 17 of it on the challenge. And it's just like, this is a long time. And then they were like, okay, we're gonna do 90 minutes. Let's spend 30 minutes on the challenge. No, no, there's gotta be other stuff going on. So yeah, if this was a little bit shorter,

it might be a little bit more palatable, but it's just so much of just like, yeah, I would do it, but you know, it's a personality thing. It's like, okay, the show is not doing us any favors because I know, I know Rob that these people are aware that they can't sit next to Joe and Eva. They know this. The show's not giving it to us, but they know it. They're gonna do it. They're gonna do something about it, Rob. I think this is the week. I'm on the record. I think something's going to happen this week also.

So we will see on Wednesday night. In the meantime, I had a great interview with Chapelle and I just watched her on Deal or No Deal Island. Parvati Shalo stopped by the podcast talking about her. She has a book coming out. Nice Girls Don't Win. How I burned it all down to take back my power Real she's so real and now she's going to be on Australian survivor versus the world

Burning down the world August. I think I don't know if we know that I don't know if we know that I thought I saw a clip there was three said it was People be lying. They don't know. I mean three don't get me wrong. I love her to death But you know, she can't hear this. I think people be lying. I don't know if they know when they're going to drop this. The show is coming one day though. It's coming one later this summer, later this summer. Yeah. Okay. All right. She felt, Oh, what else is coming up for you? You can catch me here on our JP talking about Netflix shows on the Nothing But Netflix podcast.

We have some reality TV coverage coming your way soon. Sneaky Links, the show about cheaters and whether or not they're reformed or not that is on Netflix is coming soon. And so I think I'm gonna bring some coverage for that on the Nothing But Netflix podcast. And then over on Recap Kickback, we had Met Gala coverage. We're talking about Forever on Netflix as well.

And Chantelle and I are still popping the balloon, talking about our dating habits and our run-ins with different celebrities and with poop bags and all kinds of stuff. It's very fun. Time over there. You gotta check that. Yeah, yeah, there's a poop bag.

It wasn't my story. It was definitely Chantelle's. But yeah, good to have you tune in to Recap Kickback for that to find out what Chantelle is talking about and see if we've been popping the balloon for the last, what, five, six episodes. Rob, they have these reality stars on Pop the Balloon Live and they call them pop stars.

And this week we had- I like that. We had, yeah, we had a Polly kind of Fiori as one of the pop stars this episode. And so it was a very interesting episode of pop the balloon. Check that out and then check us out on recap kickback to see what we had to say. All right. We love to read what you say in the comments here after another wild week of club condo.
