It's time for Tim's. Yeah that's right. We got some club condo episode three of Survivor 48 and a historic week of Survivor.
Starting point is 00:03:02 So much to talk about from the world of social media and beyond. Back here with a guy who maybe you might see him at Luigi's sometime soon. It's Chappelle. Chappelle, how are you? Yeah, or maybe you won't. Maybe I'll say I'm going to go and then just not pull up over the course of the next few months. Who knows? Rob, I'm great. I'm great. I'm happy. We got another good episode of Survivor, some great say content as well. So we were fed this week.
Starting point is 00:03:29 Yes, it's been a very exciting week with this double overtime tribal council and then so much discussion around it in these last couple of days. Of course, you could hear everything we've got, including I talked to Dwight Moore for another interpretation of the rules. And I think there's some debate of did Survivor get this right on the ruling or wrong on the ruling? You could hear that in our We Know Survivor podcast feed, weknowsurvivor.com. But here today, Chappelle, so much to get into.
Starting point is 00:04:00 How are you doing? I'm good. I'm good. Can I just say I don't care about the rules? I don't. I got good. Can I just say I don't care about the rules? I don't I gotta understand why people do but I think they're like, I think survivor got it, right? And we just don't like the rules, you know, like survivor did what survivor is going to do and we're like, oh We don't like that. We want to change them. Boo. We don't care Dwight. We don't care. Let's move on. We had great television this time Um, Cedric made a bunch of boo-boos in this episode anyway that we shouldn't even be talking about
Starting point is 00:04:23 So yeah, the rules are what got me hyped. But you know, there's been some drama this season. Who knew you could get this kind of action from a four person drive? It was so much fun. Yeah, it was certainly a wild night. I do have some questions about the interpretation of the rules. I think that ultimately whether you agree with Survivor's interpretation or I think that the other way of looking at it,
Starting point is 00:04:45 which I come down on more, I think in both cases, Justin should have been the person to go home. So it's not like that there was some miscarriage of justice, but I think I have a little bit of a disagreement with how we ultimately got to that outcome. And as far as Justin is concerned, man, what a rough go, you know?
Starting point is 00:05:03 It seems like he had it all. And then just slowly, just the drain got pulled out. And just like the water, he's circling the drain. And it was just like the slow decline. The show does him no favors. We hear in his exit press days, like, no, he did fight for his life, even though the internet was like, boo, this guy isn't even trying.
Starting point is 00:05:21 I don't know what's going on. Justice for Justin. I think that a lot of people had him as like a winner pick going in. This was one of those episodes that you're just gonna look back at and be like, damn, that sucks. Well, one of the things about Justin was that we heard this week that Survivor Medical
Starting point is 00:05:37 uncovered some kind of like medical issue he had with his heart that he was able to get fixed. Maybe that was the role that Survivor was supposed to play. Maybe he was just supposed to get his life saved and then that was it survivor didn't know him anything after that Right. So then once you came on it's like now we already gave you what you got from this You know, you were you're on borrowed time, baby, you know, it's like on the one hand I'm glad he got to play on the other hand I mean there are pretty awful ways to go out of survivor. This is probably one of the worst
Starting point is 00:06:03 I won't say it is the worst, but there are some pretty bad exes that people have from Survivor that I don't think they had much to do with them. It's kind of just like, I just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time, and I got voted out. He lost his vote, which is crazy. And he only got to sit on the thing by random.
Starting point is 00:06:20 He had a dice roll, but that was random. Could he have done stuff differently? Sure. But still, still, this is tough. This is one of those things that I guess if you plan on going on Survivor, you never dream that you could end up in a situation like this. Chappelle, did you care that he lost his vote on the Dice thing? I thought it'd be interesting. I felt like, oh, that'll be fun. But like, I wasn't like, I was annoyed, but I've been annoyed at the new era for a long time. You know, like the new era has been snatching votes and doing all kinds of weird shit since 41.
Starting point is 00:06:49 And I like to go back to the thing that Jeff used to say, it's the monster. He don't talk about the monster no more, but the monster is prevalent now. The monster is here. It's like, you could be minding your business and the monster say, hey, your game is over. You don't have a vote now. Now what? You know, it's like, I didn't do anything. He's like, yeah, well, that was the monster speaking.
Starting point is 00:07:04 So I think the monster is in full effect in a way it really wasn't in 41 and 42 Interesting that who else do you feel like that that happened to because I feel like it's been less than Was at the very out the outset of the new era Remember when they were doing the coin flip? Oh, I hated that so much like the do or die wasn't that that was 41 and 42 Yeah, I hated that. But there's been other there's been other situations where I've been like, you know, if we weren't taking all these votes and doing all this weird stuff, like this person probably would be fine ish. And again, like we used to remember we used to complain about tribe swaps. Like man,
Starting point is 00:07:39 somebody swap screw that stuff. You know, imagine getting put on the tribe and being the only one from your tribe over there. And they have, like, you're just the easy boat out. Now it's like, yeah, imagine you went on a journey that you didn't ask to go on and then something happened and then you didn't do this and then that happened and then you didn't do that. And then it just, the ball didn't bounce in your air.
Starting point is 00:07:57 Hell, we saw the winner of Survivor win last year because she ordered the fries. You know? It's like, it's crazy. I mean, that's the part of the game. I haven't been too broken up about it. Sometimes you get medevaced. Basically, you step on a, take a step the wrong way,
Starting point is 00:08:15 you're out of the game. Brandon slept wrong. Who gets medevaced for sleeping wrong? Like, did you sleep on your side? Sorry, we're going to have to pull you from the guy. Like it's the new era is nasty. It's shorter, but it's nasty business. Yep. Okay. So we'll give you a sneak preview for next week when we talk about who got swap screwed after the swap is around the corner. Are you excited for the swap? Chappelle? Yeah, I see Mike Bloom been spoiling the swap. I didn't look at it. I don't like to be spoiled.
Starting point is 00:08:43 You know, about the swap. No, I don't like to be spoiled. You know what about the Swap? No, I don't want to know because I like to do all the podcasts for the week and then look ahead. I actually go out of my way to avoid seeing any sort of future... There's always the Swap gets spoiled by the commercial, but I try to wait till we get through the podcast. You know I take a bullet for Mike Bloom, but I muted him a long time ago. He ruined my life. Mike Bloom goes out of his way to spoil stuff for me specifically.
Starting point is 00:09:08 You know, like, survivor fire, whatever. But like, I have other obligations during the traders. And Mike Bloom is like, nah, he has no chill. He does not give a damn. He hates me so much. So I had to mute him. I love him to death though. Take a bullet for him, but I won't unmute him.
Starting point is 00:09:24 Not yet. Okay. All right, that's coming up next week. But let's talk about the week that was and of course Mary made history this week when she became the second player to avoid getting voted out due to the shot in the dark. Chappelle, what was your reaction to Mary's shot in the dark? I was... so I figured some weirdness was coming, right? I did the classic thing of like, hey, we're going to tribal council, there's 30 minutes left in the episode,
Starting point is 00:09:50 what's about to happen? So I kind of landed on that. And I was like, all right. And then we even had a commercial break during tribal, so you know, you know it's gonna be some shenanigans, right? Like when you got that much time left in the game. And so I knew it was, something was happening. When it happened, I just like, oh God, not say,
Starting point is 00:10:07 not like this, you know, that's all I kept thinking. I was like, oh God, it's over. But I don't know, The Shot of Dark is one of those things that people say it's overrated. People don't like The Shot of Dark. Famously, Mary, Mary said herself that it was overrated. That's iconic. She said it was a whack.
Starting point is 00:10:24 She like, The Shot of Dark is not all it's cracked up to be. Lady, apologize. Say you're sorry. Yeah. OK. Well, one thing that the shot in the dark is helping out is all these watch parties around the country for Survivor. So let's go around the country. First stop, Philadelphia, where Mary herself was watching the iconic moment take place. The crowd is chanting her name. Jeff holds the scroll and gets ready to reveal Mary is safe!
Starting point is 00:11:17 She did it! She did it! She did it! And she's up and she's dancing on the table. In the iconic sweater! So there you go. There was Mary live in Philadelphia, Rob knee jerk reaction. What's the more iconic shot in the dark? Is it Caleb or is it Mary?
Starting point is 00:11:38 So we also had our live watch party for when Kayla played the shot in the dark and we were also Fortunate enough to have Caleb's cousin in the room when that table wearing the sweater etc etc now I know there is recency bias Mary is mother She is Caleb's was better. I'll give you I'll give you not mother. She's not mother. What is she? She's no Mary's mother I'll give you a couple of reasons why. Caleb is not mother. I'll give you- She's not mother.
Starting point is 00:12:04 What is she? No, Mary's mother. Caleb is not mother. Caleb's not mother. I'm sorry. Caleb's not mother. But let me tell you the reasons why I think that the Caleb shot in the dark was better. And before Twitter ends me for being a sexist trash, here's my analytical reasons why Caleb's
Starting point is 00:12:24 shot in the dark was better. First off, first time it happened. First is better than the second, right? Okay, fair. Some would say you need a rough draft before a masterpiece, but okay. Also, we had come to know Caleb better than we have come to know Mary. This is only episode three. I believe that that was episode what six of Survivor 45? You're right. I would say this is probably more of Mary's coming out episode than anything. Caleb had been through more of the battles of that he was gonna get voted out. Emily ended up turning on Sabiah and Sean and the whole journey that Caleb had been on. Also, Mary canceled two votes.
Starting point is 00:13:07 Caleb canceled what? Twelve votes? No, about a billion. It was a whole heap of votes. Big reaction as well from the Caleb crowd. I remember that vividly. We were in Brea at the time and at the improv. It was a fantastic night for some. Waiters were high fiving each other that didn't even watch Survivor.
Starting point is 00:13:27 They didn't even know who Caleb was. They didn't even know who Caleb was. And so incredible moments that really was just amazing. Now I will give Mary credit for the chain reaction of events that Mary set off, far more entertaining than just, hey everybody, let's just vote out J. Maya. Right, right. Because also that's the, if you want to talk about downsides to Caleb, J. Maya went home that episode. So boo, boo, boo. The downsides to the Caleb is that just it very quickly becomes, okay, well, that's easy. We'll just vote out J. Maya.. We'll go next week.
Starting point is 00:14:05 And then also Caleb gets voted out the next episode. So those are the downsides of the Caleb. But just in terms of like who had the better shot in the dark moment, I think that Caleb's was better. Also the crowd went wild. Not much of a reaction from say Justin and Cedric. Yeah, we didn't have the crowd support that we have for Caleb.
Starting point is 00:14:27 You know, like these were people who liked him, but wanted him out of the game. And so he had his own audience there. I mean, the entire jury, except with the exception of J. Maya, is sitting there when it happens, because she's not on it. But yeah, they're all sitting there.
Starting point is 00:14:41 And so they're cheering while sitting directly next to him. This was kind of like Mary's trying to dark hit, and nobody is excited about this. I mean, it's crazy that it happened. But if I'm Cedric, if I'm Justin, if I'm Sam, I'm like, oh, God, what is this? I don't know. Obviously, the Caleb one is a bigger deal.
Starting point is 00:15:00 I think it's just in scale. But I do like the way the episode set this whole thing up. We get the Mary versus Say the entire time where they're like, they, they, Survivor doesn't do this often where they do like the rivals that are actually like, no, I respect them. This is not, it's not, I don't want them out. I don't hate them. It's just, I want them out of the game because we're not playing together. But otherwise, it's only the second time it's happened in the last four episodes of Survivor. Right. And so it's, yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:15:26 So this is happening and they're like, no, we like each other, this is fine, but you gotta go. And so once it gets to the point where it hits, it kind of like, wait, is there a way we could keep both of these iconic queens here together so that they can fight another day? And while the universe said no, Cedric said, okay, let's do it.
Starting point is 00:15:44 Yeah, I'll say the other thing about this, why the Mary thing ends up being overshadowed by the Caleb thing is that the Mary thing wasn't even the craziest thing that happened in this episode. You know, that the Mary plays the shot in the dark and it hits, only sets off what would be crazier stuff to happen a couple of moments.
Starting point is 00:16:02 There was a one in six chance that Mary hit the shot in the dark. It was a one in a chance that Mary hit the shot in the dark. It was a one in a million shot that we saw. This should not have happened. This should never have happened. Young Cedric. Yeah, okay. He had a decision to make.
Starting point is 00:16:17 Yeah, but yes, he did. He did have a decision to make. Yeah, all right. He did. What's wrong with you, boy? Let's go out to San Francisco for the Bryce and Wynn watch party reaction to Mary's shot in the dark okay It's a very scary. Sense. Oh my God. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:17:00 Oh look, there's a lot of times. Where were all the Justin fans? Nobody was like, ah, damn it. Like rats, you know? Me, a safe fan over there in the corner thinking like, oh my God, it's over. What are we doing? I could hear Daniel Reyes and Sasha Joseph in that clip as well. There was a star-studded event over there in Bryson Wynn in San Francisco.
Starting point is 00:17:19 Crazy that that happened. You know, that's the thing. RGMP, we have a knack for just like, you know, by happenstance, find it, like looking up on those moments. But now that these watch parties are happening around the place, like all over the place, I think largely due to RHAP and the survivor community being a lot bigger now, we have more opportunities to catch these moments. Like imagine we had shots around the world of people laughing at Malcolm getting voted out that time with Mike Bloom. You know, that'd be crazy. One one person, everybody modern day survivor in the new era is that no matter what
Starting point is 00:17:47 happens is going to be a watch party somewhere that's being filmed that we're going to get live reactions of it. And we needed that, but someone should have done a filming, the live reactions of everything that happens next, because Cedric goes on to just lose his mind for the next 30 minutes of the episode. That much data on their phone to record 30 minutes of chaos. It really is. And it's such, it's calm chaos too, because it's very much like, just not explaining anything. He's like, all right, oh well,
Starting point is 00:18:15 there's only two votes, y'all go back and vote. And people are like, we don't get a reaction from Cedric. We're like, why are there only two votes? We just get them like, okay, I guess I'll just do it again. It's like, Cedric, Cedric, pay attention. What, what are we doing? What are we doing? You know what's happening. I think y'all know what's happening. But like, you have to know that, like, as people were talking about with the rules, sir, it sounds like you're about to vote yourself out if you don't flip. That's what I thought.
Starting point is 00:18:36 To get this one out. Yeah. I kind of thought it was too. I was like, is he about to get Sarimageddon out of here? Like, if that's the case, fine know peace look what are you doing okay oh my god all right let's get into some of the social media highlights and of course our queen say is back at it she's carrying this season on her back on social media and maybe on the screen too and so this maybe definitely on the Definitely. She is definitely carrying it. Did you see she broke the record for most confessionals in the first three episodes? Oh, I didn't see for the first three episodes.
Starting point is 00:19:10 I saw for the first episode. No. So in the first three episodes, and I'll send you the graphic, but in the first three episodes, I believe Rob's fact checker tweets out that Say has now surpassed one of your faves in mind, Russell Hands, for having the most confessionals, which is crazy considering Russell Hands is the only person with confessionals in Samoa. So, yeah, crazy times here that Say is just like, like you said, she's carrying it. I know she's exhausted. She's tired. Can she rest? Not yet. Not yet. Okay. So this week we had Say called out a fellow podcaster She says my first order of business
Starting point is 00:19:51 Will be getting on this purple pants podcast and having a clear conversation with Jack Because this man is always loud and wrong Oof. What did Jack say? Now, I don't know exactly what he said. Yeah, and I asked myself, what did he do to make her so mad? You know, I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:20:14 But I'm sure, I mean, Say has not been wrong yet. So I'm sure, you know, he's probably wrong. And I have to guess that he was probably loud about it too. Yeah. I saw in the comments though, I saw the Purple Pants podcast. They saw this, and they've been posting about it on Instagram.
Starting point is 00:20:28 Did you see that? No. Maybe, here, get me the link, and I'll play it, and I'll show you what they're saying over there. I have to agree with say, and again, I don't know what Jack particularly said, but I've thought about this. And Chapelle, I was thinking like, you know, I would struggle with, you know, it's one
Starting point is 00:20:46 thing for me to be critical of one of my peers playing the game. I think if I was a player, I would really struggle with people who've never played Survivor telling me how what I did was wrong. I would struggle with that. That's that I am. I am opening up my heart and I'm telling you that is something that it would be. One thing is like, OK, somebody that's done it. OK, all right. I get it. But for just people, random people to tell me that I'm wrong, I would have a hard time with that. Look, speaking as the random person
Starting point is 00:21:31 who is often telling these people they're wrong, I will go on and say that, yeah, that's gotta suck. But guess what? That's, I didn't go play Survivor, you did. And so I get to be like, what's crazy, Cedric? You had a decision to make it. You made the wrong world, or you made the right world. You should have made that one faster. I can do that all day every day, baby
Starting point is 00:21:47 You can't do nothing about it But guess what you have the opportunity to go on the show and win and if you don't if you win you shut me up If you lose then I get to talk a little bit. Yeah Can't i'm just saying I would struggle with that it would it would it would bother me honestly what these bigger it's like A random person telling me that I should have done something different on survivor. That's annoying.
Starting point is 00:22:09 A person who was on the circle telling me that I'm joking. I never actually, I've never seen the circle, so I'm just joking. But yeah, like, no, I could definitely see where that's annoying. I think that's one underrated part of the survivor experience. And of course people don't talk about it. They're like, yeah, you're going on there to do the game of a lifetime, and to play the game, win the life-changing amount of money, all that other stuff.
Starting point is 00:22:31 But then as you're doing that, you have people like me and Jack and the 18,000 billion people on Twitter and all these other ones who are sharpening their knives to just be like, boo, Buddhist man, Buddhist woman, I don't like it, boo, underrated, shot in the dark, overrated, shot in the dark. We are here to drag and to talk trash from the safety of our home, and that's what we chose to do when we decided not to go and compete for a million dollars.
Starting point is 00:22:56 So yeah, tough, tough. But Bryce and Wynn, like I said, I think they saw it and people were egging it on. They were saying like, hey, we need to bring Say on. I think Say even suggested that her and Mary come on and do a duo podcast over, oh, Purple Pants podcast. Okay. All right, we'll see if that comes together at some point after the season.
Starting point is 00:23:15 All right. Then also, Say had something else to write on social media. You can say it, it's okay. It gets confusing. I mean we say it so much at this point but like at this point just lean in. Yeah I know in I think it was a Thundercats in the chat the other day during the Q&A was talking about like that between Say and Cedric between Say said that said said said said said say yeah it's too much young sadrick young sadrick has some decisions to make all right oh actually okay here is um the uh we have the purple pants podcast uh then but this is just okay this is just the what i already read just get into the comment section though rob if you could pull up on the screen,
Starting point is 00:24:05 I just really want to point out one comment in particular, and I know they're going to kick my ass for doing it, but I don't care. Okay. Yeah, we get this Instagram post from, you know, Purple Pants podcast on Instagram, and people are in the comments. I think it says, looks like Say and Mother Mary
Starting point is 00:24:22 finally have something in common, meeting Jack after school behind the basketball court. So I guess even Mary has some issues with Jack Atkins. But if you scroll down into the comments, you see Wendell hyping this up. But look at Davey. Davey says, I love that Jack is the Simon Kyle of the Purple Fans podcast. Now who the hell is Simon Kyle?
Starting point is 00:24:44 I don't know. Is that like some Pokemon character? Simon Kyle, mon. I don't know. Davey knows like all these different like franchises and stuff. Simon Cowell, Davey. Oh! And Bryce is Paula and Wendell is Randy. It would be. Yeah, but like the other Randy Jackson, he
Starting point is 00:25:15 he that one. Who is Simon Kyle? Danny, what the hell? Maybe on the correct got him. No, it didn't. Don't like that. I liked it. I liked it. I did reply to that comment.
Starting point is 00:25:39 I think Davey just told me to shut the hell up or something to that nature. Okay. Wendell, keep saying gather him. Gather him, get him together, drag him. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, it's a tough world. Imagine having Say and Mary trying to whoop your ass
Starting point is 00:25:55 after this whole season is over. I hope they win. But I think it's good for the Purple Pants podcast that Jack is getting called out by the players. How come none of the players call you out? That wouldn't that be good for this podcast? Can. How come none of the players call you out that wouldn't that be good for this podcast? Can you say something that the players call you out for? Well, I want players to like me
Starting point is 00:26:15 Why won't you say something that makes the players call you out so we can hype it up for this show Okay, who you want me to pick on pick a person. It can't be say. Don't say say. Hey Rob, check that last link I sent you. I actually did get called out by say. You want to put that one up on the screen? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, since we talking about it. All right, let's see. All right. Let's see. Is this on where? Is this Instagram? On x.com.
Starting point is 00:26:40 On x.com. I sent you the link in the private chat. Yeah. Check it out. I got too many tabs open. Okay. Yeah. I got too many tabs open. Okay. Yeah. I got too many tabs open. On X.com. This is...
Starting point is 00:26:50 Real say-on-ya. Okay. All right. This is... She says... She says... She says, my back is officially broken. I'm getting surgery soon.
Starting point is 00:27:03 Can she rest? A question poised by the Congressional Pell. Unfortunately, the answer is that I wasn't able to rest after all. But she didn't call you out. Yeah, but look, she's paying homage. She knows we love her. People only care about beef.
Starting point is 00:27:17 No, look, I'm getting tagged and not beef, okay? Look at that. This is the link that I was talking about though. She set a new survivor record for the most confessional in the first three episodes beating Russell Hattis season 19 record of 27 She's up to what 34 the closest person in the last Pretty good By far if you have some sort of like fantasy league where you get points for confessionals, you're killing it.
Starting point is 00:27:49 Yeah. Also pray for the queen. She just had surgery. She will be recovering her back is not okay. She is still carrying. Okay. All right. Also then one other piece of business from say that I want to bring up. Okay. we had, of course, star of Survivor 46. And of course, a great guest here on Club Kondo. Jalinski talked about his love of Justin the pizza man. And he said, now my boy was robbed long live Justin P.L.P. and Say said, debatable, debatable, debatable, debatable.
Starting point is 00:28:34 First of all, say you've got to give Jalinski some grace because Justin, as we have decided, is at least his second cousin, at least on some, there's some type of DNA there that they share. So it's not like, you know, he got a second for his family. There's a little bit, there's a little crossover there. Jalinski, yeah, my dog. I think the reason why people don't be beefing with me
Starting point is 00:28:52 is because I'm on the right side with this one. I got was team Jalinski from day one. I drafted him. I should have drafted him. I didn't draft him. I think I knew better. I knew better than to draft him, but I stood tall. I said, Jalinski, this is an icon
Starting point is 00:29:03 and we still talking about him to this day crazy tough yeah crazy all right long live at least King Jalinski King Jalinski yeah we'll keep King Jalinski around do we ever see Justin play survivor again I don't think so I feel like you can start making cases for like seasons where you bring in people who were maybe done wrong by the monster, you know, some swap screw people, maybe some medevacs, maybe you can find space for somebody like Justin. I'm trying to think of the show would like that idea, but I think that they kind of might. They might, they might, because remember, I think some of them really started leaning
Starting point is 00:29:37 into you, like you can't expect, you know, anything from the show, right? Like it is what it is. Sometimes you win an award, sometimes you lose it, you know, losing a vote. Sometimes you do this. Sometimes you do that. And a lot of times out of your control. I think highlighting how sometimes this is out of your control and like kind of giving that back to the players. I think that'd be a decent season. It'd be very reminiscent of Ghost Island, you know, where it's like, here are the things they brought that took you out of the game last time. Face them again. Yeah. We're taking everybody's votes this time. No shot in the dark. All that constant. The weight is over.

Let's talk about another player that was not part of this famous tribal council. And David had a big moment this week
Starting point is 00:30:48 where we found out a lot about David's backstory in this episode. And we learned a couple of things about David, that David lives in a trailer at his dad's house. And despite what Kyle says, he does not think it's cool. I live at home in a trailer in that eight mile. Yeah, yeah. I thought this scene was very interesting
Starting point is 00:31:11 because he's telling the story and Kyle, he comes from like one of those survivor factories where you just kind of instinctively know what to do and say in moments like this, where he just kind of like, yeah, yeah, that's great. It's like, no, no, no. Sometimes it's not great. It's like, no, no, no. Sometimes it's not great. It's not great to everybody.
Starting point is 00:31:27 Some people, they love that kind of thing. David is not happy about his situation living in front of his dad's house in a trailer, not really having the money to romance his girlfriend the way he would like right now. He's like, hey, it's not sexy. It's not very sexy to be living like this. And so he wants to change.
Starting point is 00:31:47 He wants to change his life around. He wants to win the money so that his girlfriend doesn't leave him. And I just, I face palm so hard in this moment, Rob, because David, don't share that with the rest of us. Don't share that with the Survivor fans. They're crazy. They're crazy.
Starting point is 00:32:01 They're going to tell you, they're going to tell you you're better than that woman. You don't deserve that woman. I mean that that woman doesn't deserve you It was a power move from david That lady probably looked over at him from the kitchen table while they were watching it. It was just like really really That's the trailer as we speak. Yeah, and she's like Here I am sitting here in this trailer with you grinding it out. Are you trying to make me look like a gold digger? I respect it.
Starting point is 00:32:28 Way to go, David. Nobody loves spilling the tea about your own relationship to a public audience to make you look good. That's my move. That is really your move. When I heard you talking about it, I was like, of course, Rob, this is a move. It's brilliant.
Starting point is 00:32:44 It is not brilliant because it's gonna get back to her. And you have to know that when these things get back to Nicole, they don't go great for you. They don't. You know that. It's like, you know what this man, he said it, she's watching the show with him. Well, that's a mistake.
Starting point is 00:32:58 That's a mistake. He said it in media that she's gonna see. I say it on podcasts, but my wife is never gonna listen to. Right, you say it on Renat. I'm the hero of this narrative. Exactly, his wife is like, like she's probably like, honey,
Starting point is 00:33:15 I threw this watch party for you, blah, blah, blah. We rented out a little ballroom area for all your friends and family, because obviously we can't have them at the trailer. She's doing all this stuff to celebrate you being on TV. In an episode three, you're like, you know who sucks? My wife.
Starting point is 00:33:31 And I was just like, it wasn't like that. But it definitely felt like, hey, she's gonna leave me if I don't win the money. Now, obviously I think that was tongue in cheek. I really do. But even if it wasn't, I don't think that's what you say to the person who's probably watching it with you, your hand through this entire this entire thing.
Starting point is 00:33:50 Maybe maybe I'm wrong, but I just it doesn't seem like the move. You don't say this on TV. I mean, look, who's to say? And this was the great the great backup plan was that there's probably like a bunch of people like, oh like I don't care if David wins I'd date him And that's the other problem, right? So now all these people were like This is a win-win the fishy Except for his girlfriend who's like what the hell she's like, you know what instead I am gonna marry you and you're stuck with me
Starting point is 00:34:21 I'm bringing up this argument every week. So oh, well, honey, I'm going to the store. Make sure you don't tell no cameras that I'm a gold digger while you out there. She don't be on him forever. Who you talking to? Did you tell him I'm only keeping you for the money? Is that it? Did you tell him you lost a driver and I stayed?
Starting point is 00:34:35 Did you, honey? I was like, bro, please, David, please. What are you doing? On Temptation Island this season on Netflix, Maggie and Kirsten are covering it here on our HP you know reality TV comm and One of the cast one of the cast she's like, you know, they're gonna see everything they say about each other This lady is like, yeah my my my boyfriend. He's got some bitch tendencies. I said, oh my god He's gonna watch the show back like you plan on going home with them
Starting point is 00:35:04 Now that is the least egregious, do you plan on going home with him? Now, that is the least egregious thing that I saw on television, watching Temptation Island, but still, when y'all go on these shows, y'all know we see y'all, right? Chappelle, speaking of couples who have been through it, competing, have you seen that Spanish Temptation Island breakout star Montoya and his girlfriend are now competing on
Starting point is 00:35:29 Spanish survivor that they brought them in Yeah, I don't even understand what's going on here because if you're on social media and maybe if you're not social media There have been these viral clips that have been going on from the Spanish speaking Season of Temptation Island where there is this guy Montoya and they keep showing him videos of his girlfriend Fornicating with with a guy and they keep like putting him in front of the TV And then he has to keep watching it, and he does not take it well No, no, I mean You know what you should see Montoya's girlfriend, okay? Yeah. Yeah, look she took it well and only she did like This guy was really struggling with it. Now, mind you, it's Temptation Island. He probably sucks too. They typically do a thing where the people suck. And the people, honestly, the people who react the worst are probably the ones who are the biggest villains in the situation. So I really want to hear both sides. But yeah, now they're on Survivor. Today hold on. What is this technology that Montoya and his girlfriend became such big stars that somehow like is
Starting point is 00:36:48 Survivor happening live in Spain. How did they do this? We these people these people on survivor 48 they they filmed survivor like six years ago How is in Spain Montoya is such a big deal on Twitter that they already got him and his girlfriend in a new season of Survivor that's airing? What the hell? Okay, well, Conexio and Honduras probably filmed like years ago as well. You know, like, I think that's the one they're on.
Starting point is 00:37:16 Cause even Temptation Island, the US version, I think it filmed in 2022 or 2023. So it was like- But they just knew that like, oh, these two are gold. We gotta put them on more shows. I think these two are just gold but they just knew that these two are gold. We got to put them on more shows. I think these two are just gold and they just happen to be on two shows. I think that's what it is. You know, once you're in the pipeline for the reality shows, you just kind of make your way.
Starting point is 00:37:34 You know, like we see people who bounce from like, you know, they'll be on love is blind and they'll be on whatever the brother race. Exactly. Yeah. Like, but they do that. And then, yeah, all the Big Brother players are now playing the major race. I think it just happens to be that this couple, I don't even think, like, I think this, the Temptation Island thing aired,
Starting point is 00:37:54 like, way after this Survivor thing was filmed, and these people were like, oh, release the footage, now is the time. You know, the editors are in the room. You think they were sitting there with the Survivors in the can, and it was like, hey, release Montoya season. Yeah, yeah, like yeah, we weren't going to air it, but now we got to. As a matter of fact, they're doing a Montoya cut. He doesn't win, but he's got more confession than say in the first three episodes because
Starting point is 00:38:13 you got to strike while the iron is hot. Montoya's like, oh, my girlfriend, if I don't win this money, I don't think it's going to work out. She's threatening to take me on Temptation Island, whatever that is. She says she's going to start seeing other people. I don't know Uh, I don't know how I would handle that. Yeah, and uh, I think she beat him recently and I mean generally the challenge Did you see that? Yeah, is this the clip of yeah? The clip is in the I didn't think that we'd spend so much time bringing this is you say this is Honduras survivor
Starting point is 00:38:41 It's connects the own Honduras to Okay Honduras survivor? It's Conexion Honduras 2, season 2. Okay. It's always bigger. I said Shannon Gus needs to get on this. I think that you and Puyah and Mike should be doing the daily updates with Shannon, talking about this every week. Listen, this counts as Survivor Global.
Starting point is 00:38:55 It does. In my mind it does at least. Conexion Honduras season 2. All right, here we go. And this is from an account on x.com and they are showing okay uh here is Anita. Anita is Montoya's girlfriend. Here they are in some sort of like head-to-head immunity challenge and Yeah. Wow. There's Montoya who has difficulties. She's about to fall. Montoya! Oh!
Starting point is 00:39:26 Montoya is out. Okay. Strong! Yeah. Now, in fairness, in fairness. Montoya's girlfriend has unquestioned stamina and endurance. She can go for hours and hours. A pole challenge? This is nothing.
Starting point is 00:39:56 That's her wheelhouse. I've seen her sit on things longer than this on Twitter before. I knew the moment I saw her hanging upside down by her legs I'll see that lady on her feet. Do you imagine what you can just do with her ankles? Are you crazy? Anita Queen Survivor 50 you cowards. Yeah, stop being a loser a loser. It's bring her back. Bring Anita back. Put her on the amazing race. Yeah. They should go on the amazing race. That Montoya should not go on amazing race. Uh, Anita live your life. Montoya. Yeah. She should go on the amazing race with another guy as Montoya has to run solo. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:46 You gotta get her out here. We gotta get her out in the streets, man. Cause she's running these people ragged and Honduras apparently. Yeah. Okay. Alright. So David though, you know, this is what we were talking about with, sometimes you get a lot of unsolicited feedback from folks when you're somebody on
Starting point is 00:41:02 Survivor. And now David's having to go through it, okay? and not from Jack Atkins, maybe Jack Atkins, David says I've been trying to transition away from stunts to pursue a career as a pilot I've spent every bit of money and I had to get my commercial license and instrument rating but no luck so far getting hired anywhere so when you say just get a job, bro, no, like, I'm trying. No, I'm trying. Yeah, telling people to get a job is weird because a lot of them be trying to get a job.
Starting point is 00:41:35 And also it's like, I just can't get any job. I have to get a job that pays the bills. Stay away from her, get a job, they say. Get away, sometimes that's real. Sometimes that's real AF. But I think that, look, David, this is why you don't put your business on the street. People in your business like, you're a stunt double.
Starting point is 00:41:51 This isn't real. This isn't real, John. You get a better job. Because they're coming into the thing, this woman. Did you tell everybody was only using you for your money? You should have just kept it to yourself. I know you're a great TV character right now, but at what cost it was
Starting point is 00:42:05 Maybe you'll get higher though. Maybe people will see you I think I think he's got some some leading man looks he could probably go into acting or something like that if he's got The chops. Mm-hmm. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. All right, so Look, you know some means You know, yeah Look the daddy calendar is calling as well. He got a modeling career in him for sure. There's a, one of the odds that David doesn't end up on the thing.
Starting point is 00:42:31 He's on the Zaddy calendar for next year as well. Right? Like we know that he's got some opportunities. He's got some opportunities going on. Okay. All right. So Chappelle, this has been the season. Survivor 48 has been the season of the fan accounts of different players. Of
Starting point is 00:42:48 course, the leader in the clubhouse is star base 48 star base 48 tells us everything that we need to know every single week about what's going on with star Toomey and of course keeps us updated every week about what's going on and here this week Star Toomey reveals or Star Counts reveals that Eva has finally told Star about her having autism is hopefully what I'll say next week because once again she has not told Star. Autism part three, electric Boogaloo. Star updates is really just has changed the game. Why is this part three electric Boogaloo? Breaking part two was electric Boogaloo.
Starting point is 00:43:44 What are you doing? But that's that's part two. This is Boogaloo. Yeah, this is part three electric Boogaloo. Breaking part two was electric Boogaloo. What are you doing? But that's part two. This is Boogaloo. Yeah, this is part three. Yeah, this is what are we doing? This is like saying like Autism part three, cruise control. It's like, no, that was number two. You can't just jump to number three. I can't think of any of the good three, the thirds of the trilogy names. Was it like die harder or something like that? That kind of vengeance I think is what the third one is. Autism with the vengeance is right there. I got to feel like that should have been the title.
Starting point is 00:44:16 Autism part three with a vengeance. Okay. Come on, star updates. I'm going to text them. I'm going to DM them. We got to talk. But you have the text number for star updates. I wish I really don't understand, you know, of all the people that I really want to be
Starting point is 00:44:29 friends with on this cast star is one of the top, top candidates for that Mary as well. I was very happy to tell, I tell everybody like before the season, I saw, I heard Mary's preseason stuff. That's that's my homie. She don't know it yet. She don't even know I exist, but that's my homie. But star. Yeah. I need to talk to star and I need to talk to Star Updates.
Starting point is 00:44:46 Both. Separately. And then maybe together. I got another update. I feel like we need a stinger for Star Update. Are happening now. Are happening now. Here we go. Star Updates says, Star currently has the least confessionals out of every person in the game.
Starting point is 00:45:00 However, she is a woman, so being under-edited by the Survivor editors is a good sign. However, she's a woman, so being under- by the survivor editors is a good sign. However, she's a woman. So being under edited by the survivor editors is a good sign. She is reheating Erica's nachos. They say that part. I love people be reheating nachos these days. And it, and it get real out here too. But I think that like Erica's nachos are not the ones like I wouldn't avoid them. She wasn't a million dollars. You go go if you're gonna reheat some nachos, them the ones that do. Okay. Yeah. But aren't they not as good the second time when you reheat them? They're not. But look, if they work, they work, right? Are they nachos or are they not? It's kind of like you reheat them, but then you add your own little special sauce like that to the nachos as well. You don't just take the nachos as is.
Starting point is 00:45:46 People were giving Lady Gaga a hard time because they were saying she was reheating a lot of nachos in her Mayhem album. Hey, play the hits. I think, but do what works, right? But she wasn't just reheating her own nachos. You know what happens when I stop reheating the nachos? Rob, where are the nachos?
Starting point is 00:46:02 Where are the nachos? We missed the nachos. It's just that- You used to do nachos all Rob, where are the nachos? Where are the nachos that we miss the nachos? It's just that you used to do nachos all the time. Why now? How come you're not reheating them? It's like, we don't like that. Right. But we can't reheat your nachos for you.
Starting point is 00:46:15 You know what I'm saying? Like you can, you can reheat your own nachos, but it gets kind of tacky sometimes when you are reheating other people, not, you know what I'm saying? Yeah. All right. We have a new update account to discuss here this week. Brand new one on the board. Chapelle, you interested in following what Cedric is up to? Yeah, I got questions. Okay. I need updates. Enter the chat. Cedric shady updates. You're Cedric. Rumor. Survivor 48 star Cedric shady updates. Young Cedric.

This is really the big brother game the big brother I think the big brother fans have found their way into the survivor social media world, because this is typical big brother nonsense. You know what I'm saying? Like it's, it's, it's so peaceful right now because it's, it's because it's, it's spring. But once the summer rolls
Starting point is 00:48:54 around the crazy, I think it's kind of big brother season right now. Low key. It's you see them peeking their heads out. They're like trying to make some survival work. The amazing race has their attention. The trainers kind of dragged him out of retirement. But this summer on RHFP, it's going down. We're bringing out the crazies and it's going to be the best time ever. Jappelle, there have been so many famous people
Starting point is 00:49:22 talking about Survivor of late and they just keep coming and it's I guess it's cool to be a survivor fan now. It used to be, oh, that show's still on? Loser? Well, not anymore because there is a lot of famous people out here talking and dressing like survivors, including role model. Role model. Yes. Oh, look at that role model. Look at that. It looks just like Jeff Probst. OK, it's kind of yeah. I'm a Jeff Probst. OK. Probstian. But who's whose role model?
Starting point is 00:50:02 I don't know. I don't know. Brandon, who's role model? At don't know. I don't know, maybe we're old. Brandon, who's role model? I'm not role model. He's an American singer. He's an American singer. He's really good. He has a song right now called Sally when the wine runs out.
Starting point is 00:50:15 Yeah, but I have more Twitter followers than him. Listen, he's got a hit song. It's on TikTok. It's trending on TikTok. He does a thing during his concerts. He's big on TikTok? He's big on TikTok. He does a thing. He's big on TikTok. He's big on TikTok. He does a thing during his concerts when he performs his big song that he'll bring out the Sally. Well, maybe now. The Sally, that's the person that has their socks pulled up the highest
Starting point is 00:50:39 because he's such a big Survivor fan. He'll bring out a person from the crowd and they'll be the Sally and they'll dance with him on stage during the last chorus of the song. So I mean if we go then maybe one of us will get pulled. He's a fan. Does he want to come on Club Kondo? He's small enough I guess. He might get through his DMs. He's our kind of caliber of guest but he he's big. And this was a you know, I like his song stream Sally when the wine runs out on Spotify. Sally when the when the wine runs out. That's a long I any? W I any it's a good song you guys if you're listening, you'll like it. Okay. Okay. I love a good song recommendation. So this works for me.
Starting point is 00:51:22 I love a good song recommendation. So this works for me. There's role model. Okay. Yeah. All right. And then we've got another famous person who is paying attention to survivor. Now, this is actually a famous person that you've heard of. Okay. Okay. All right. Who have I heard of? All right.

Because maybe in that case, maybe it was on all the effing time. But I think it's only on like once a week and only in not every month yeah it's only for like 26 weeks out of the year she sounds like she loves survival and I feel like I'm just so literally I will watch it, but it is like Now why does the friend say it's supposed to be a good season I

Starting point is 00:56:27 Certainly, didn't look like she loved it. But you know, Thomas, first name basis, pretty cool. You know, pretty good. I did in that couple of minutes look up role model on Instagram. And the only new era survivor contestant that follows new, that follows role model is Charlie Davis, who I trust. Okay.
Starting point is 00:56:45 Okay. I trust him. He does have the music taste. Famously good music taste. So you guys gotta listen to role model. Okay. All right, so Brandon, so I'm under the understanding that it is today, St. Patrick's Day.
Starting point is 00:56:59 It sure is. And you have a festive game planned. I have a festive game. Now this is a passion project. Chappelle, do you know what this is? Do you know what we're gonna do? No. Buckle in, because it's about to get weird.
Starting point is 00:57:11 It's about to get weird for all of us. I was on Survivor in 2023, but I've been on, I've followed Survivor contestants on Instagram long before that. And one of my favorite follows in the time that I have been around is Survivor 37's Pat Cusack, our own St. Patrick for this example. That was medically removed from Survivor on day three. He tweaked his back. And now, you know, Pat's tweaked back is all right, but he has not stopped
Starting point is 00:57:40 Instagramming. And his Instagram captions sometimes have nothing to do with the image. Sometimes it has exactly to do with the image, but it's a roller coaster. So what we're gonna do is I have a couple screenshots of Pat's Instagram, and we're gonna go through them, and I'm gonna show you the picture. You guys can describe the picture for the listeners,
Starting point is 00:58:00 and then pick what caption. I have three captions. Some of them are fake, one of them is real. You can pick the caption. That's what we're gonna do. All right. St. Patrick's Day. Guess Pat's Instagram captions.
Starting point is 00:58:12 If you're listening to the podcast, I will do my best to explain what's going on here visually. And of course, here on YouTube, you can watch it all. All right, St. Patrick's Day. Rob. Yes. If I had shown you that middle picture of Pat, would you have recognized him as Pat from Survivor? I think so. Why? Do you feel like he looks...
Starting point is 00:58:32 I do not know this man. He was, you know, the star of one episode. I believe it was a 90-minute episode. It was a 90-minute episode. He got on the boat. It was one of the few minutes that we didn't actually see happen because it was like, Hey, by the way, when y'all weren't watching something, something awful. Right. She made like a lewd comment about having sex with a frog. Right.
Starting point is 00:58:54 I know that that's true, but I believe it. Did you? I mean, why don't we believe that it is now? In what context? I think he said something was like tighter than a Frog's I remember a screenshot of him saying I've I've eaten worms in my life just because they were the only thing around to eat was said on the show
Starting point is 00:59:20 I mean, I think he got I'm sweating as much as a nun in church. I remember that Expressions, okay on the show. I mean, I think he got I'm sweating as much as a nun in church. I remember that. Okay, he had a couple of folksy expressions. Okay, so he's a salt of the earth kind of guy St. Patrick's Day. Bring back Pat. Bring him back. Okay. So all right. Picture one. All right, you want to describe what's going on. So we have a red cup, almost like a Pizza Hut, like classic Pizza Hut cup. Looks like with like a half filled. Chappelle, is that cup half filled or half empty? You know, I'm a half full kind of guy. You know, that's kind of my whole MO. I don't think anybody would look at that cup and say, oh, that's half empty. Somebody would.
Starting point is 01:00:03 You know, somebody might, but if somebody tells you the cup is half empty, like that's a person that's a real, that versus a real sour puss, okay? Meanwhile, Sam Moore's over there behind the scenes crying because we're talking about him. Sam's like, yeah, half of it's gone. What are you talking about? Okay.
Starting point is 01:00:19 Okay, so all right. So we've got the Pizza Hut Red Cup on a table, half filled with Coke and a straw, okay? Yes. So, is the caption to this photo, where am I for lunch? Got a soda or snap crackle pop? Okay.
Starting point is 01:00:41 So we don't really have a baseline yet here on Pat. What's the stats on this post Brandon? Oh so we have 14 likes. We've got one comment on this guy. Alright. Chappelle do you have a strong feeling here? Cause I'm leaning one way. I feel like you're leaning toward the absurd. Like? That it's probably Snap, Crackle, Pop. No, so I don't think it's absurd. I feel like that, you know, Pat is, I believe, famously from upstate New York. I feel like that this is a territory
Starting point is 01:01:14 where we might be calling soda pop. And so I feel like Snap, Crackle, Pop is where I'm leaning. Yeah, I figured you were, but I do wanna double down that that is absurd. I'm not. Yeah, I figured you were, but I do want to double down that that is absurd. I'm not saying that you're wrong. I just think that using a Rice Krispies tagline on a soda or a Hop is still absurd, but let's go with C, I agree.
Starting point is 01:01:36 Unfortunately, and we're getting to know Pat. So even though you were wrong here, and it is, where am I for lunch? Was it Pizza Hop? How could we possibly know that? So that's, again, that's getting to know Pat is, it's not gonna make sense. None of these are gonna be,
Starting point is 01:01:49 you're never gonna get a strong feeling on where we go here. Did we find out in the comments where he did go for lunch? Is that the one comment? No, I don't believe the comment. I don't think they ever. Brandon, we assume he knew and he was quizzing people or he was confused.
Starting point is 01:02:03 I, we don't know. I believe it could be Col be calling me could be coming. Yeah. And we're only going to get more confusing. So if we go here, here's Pat. All right. Making a pretty disgruntled face. He looks upset.
Starting point is 01:02:17 I don't know what's going on in this picture. And the captions. He looks like if I was going to describe this for the podcast, listeners, he's got like some bitter beer face going on here. Yeah. Yeah, he looks like, if I was gonna describe this for the podcast listeners, he's got like some bitter beer face going on here. Yes. Yeah. Okay. Looks like he's been through something. Let's see.
Starting point is 01:02:32 So the captions are, hashtag Twinkies, but you gotta do what you gotta do. Yeah. Hashtag Hot Cheetos, but that's just how it goes. Mm. Hashtag Scooby Snacks, but it's worth it in the end. Hmm, okay. One of these is right.
Starting point is 01:02:49 One of these is the cat. I don't know if it's hot Cheetos. That's not the face of a person who's eaten something hot. Yeah. Yeah, he's not like trying to blot out his tongue with paper towels. I hear you, but like, are we assuming that this is the face of after someone who's ate something?
Starting point is 01:03:08 Because who was eating Scooby snacks, if not Scooby Doo? Have you ever had a Scooby snack? Like I think it's like, it almost never happens. If not, has probably never happened. Like you might've had those little gummy things that they call Scooby snacks, but those are not Scooby snacks. You know Scooby Snacks are almost like dog biscuits. Okay. Well, I'm leaning more towards the absurd. I feel like it may be it's Scooby Snacks,
Starting point is 01:03:32 but it's worth it in the end. I'm down with you on the Scooby Snacks. Cause I think he's in a van and it's giving me mystery machines. Yeah. It's giving me mystery machines. Scooby Snacks. Yes. But it's worth it in the end. What does that even mean? What does it's worth it in the end. The surest.
Starting point is 01:03:45 What does that even mean? What does it mean? We don't know. I know. We what is that? Well, we've got a vape. This is an image of I believe Pat's hand holding a vape in a bathroom stall. That is definitely the wall of a bathroom stall. And the captions are vape God going to Greece, LOL. Real?
Starting point is 01:04:08 Life saver in the airport or about to flight? Hmm. About to flight is crazy. Vape God going to Greece, LOL is so different than the other two. Vape God going to Greece. It is. It's the lol to that makes it fun. But Brayley's good at this.
Starting point is 01:04:29 Chappelle, we could be walking into a trap. We could be but it's not like either the other two really stand out as a this is this what the answer should be. Life saver in the airport. Sure. But like why do you need your life safe by tobacco in the airport? Yeah, I don't know. To me. That like I wait you wanna go with a god going to Greece
Starting point is 01:04:48 Why is Pat going to Greece though? Yeah, I go to Greece in August yeah, that's fine. Let's go a all right vape god going to Greece lol Unfortunately now we'll get to why we're going to we are lifesaver in the airport. We're definitely on the way to Greece. There's a lot of pictures of Greece on the Instagram. I love this for Pat. Love it for Pat. Okay, all right. So now this is gonna take a minute to explain.
Starting point is 01:05:16 It's a cool guy. The captions that I'm gonna tell you after I describe the image, these are all captions on the Instagram of Pat Cusack. Every one of these was not written by me. You took these from actual other photos. Okay. So one of them is for this picture. I can't really zoom in here. So Pat... Oh, I've done the work for you. That's Pat at Five Guys Burgers and Fries. Okay, he's at Five Guys but not in Greece?
Starting point is 01:05:40 Not in Greece. Okay. No, this seems to be at home. Okay. So he is at walking into five guys and he's taking a selfie. And so the three options are the look you get when you smell that smell. I assume that a positive here when you get into five guys. But the look itself, Rob, what is the, how would you describe the look? The look is not necessarily a pleasant look. He's not like... Yeah, but it's not unpleasant. Yeah, okay. Option B is, yup, your boy all tuned up and ready for Greece.
Starting point is 01:06:17 Now, he is headed into five guys. This could have been a typo. He might be trying to spell G-R-E-A-S-E. Oh, headed into Greece.A-S-E. Oh, that is grease. Mm-hmm. Yep. And then, last is C, when the day is new, but needs help rising, you lend a hand.
Starting point is 01:06:35 Now, did the shift workers at Five Guys, they're like, hey, Pat, we need a sixth guy. You're the sixth man. Yeah. The day just started, We need some help rising. Can you get here by 8 a.m.? How's your back? How are you on the fry machine?
Starting point is 01:06:52 How are you with grease? Yeah. Okay. When the day is new, but needs help rising, you lend the day a hand. We hope it's rising. The day is new, but needs help rising. You lend a hand to the, okay.
Starting point is 01:07:14 Could be any. How is he bringing in the day at Five Guys? Do they serve breakfast? Is it there for breakfast? I don't think so. Yeah, okay. Shepal, what do you think? I don't know what to think.
Starting point is 01:07:24 I think there would be a smell at Five Guys. And maybe he is walking into Five Guys. Yeah, Five Guys probably smells really good. They have those fries that are nicely seasoned. I think maybe Five Guys has called to Pat like the siren song. Yeah, like he smelled that smell. He didn't even have time to put a real shirt on. He just went out in the white beater.
Starting point is 01:07:44 Okay, yeah, I'm down with that. That look you get when you smelled that smell. He didn't even have time to put a real shirt on. He just went out in the white beater. Okay, yeah, I'm down with that. That look you get when you smell that smell. And unfortunately, this is why Pat should be on 50. He's an elusive guy. This is on the way to Greece. Is he stomped at five guys on the way to Greece? Had to, had to. I also, the spelling of boy to note is BoI.
Starting point is 01:08:06 Yeah, that really may be that is not the Greek spelling of boy. I don't know what the hell that is. That is just the boy. He's all tuned up and ready for Greece. I'm ready for Greece. Wow. Stopped in five guys. That's not where they're filming the next season of White Lotus.
Starting point is 01:08:22 Is it? Is that where Pat's off? Oh, he's next. Season four. That's not where they're filming the next season of white Lotus. Is it? Is that where if Pat's off to go to season four? For what I can tell he could, he might be up on this season too. I mean, all kinds of our players are just popping in the background. Yeah. Okay. Okay. We got, we got two more of these, two more. Okay. We got, so we got some sort of like a is this kind of like girl dinner? We've got a plate with a bunch of different things. We've got a That's at least a hot dog with mustard a slice of watermelon. It's pickles
Starting point is 01:08:59 and then I'm not sure. Is that another hot dog on this plate? It is another hot dog. It is Is this a woman on this plate? It is another hot dog. It is. It's two hot dogs. Is this a woman holding this plate? The woman's holding the plate, but it looks like she's presenting it to Pat. Presenting it to Pat. Okay, so some assorted food stuffs for Pat in three options for a caption. A is simple stuff, hot dog and fruit today.
Starting point is 01:09:22 Does not seem like that that would pass the bar to which Brandon is quizzing us here. Then we have B, num num num lunchtime. Or C, a lil' midday snackaroo. I hate C so much, so I'm not gonna go with C. I don't like it. I don't like it. Also, I have a really big issue with the the assortment of foods on the plate.
Starting point is 01:09:48 Yeah, she felt what you say that was at the time of day was mid or the plate of food is mid. Well, judging by the shadow, it is midday for sure. But why do you have more pickles than fries? How did that happen? Okay. Yeah. I think I gave him a gallon of fries. Yeah. The watermelon, I believe has been taken off the rind. So somebody went through a lot of work here. Someone de-rind that watermelon. I didn't even notice that. It's naked. Is this a snack or a lunch I think is the question. See like but would a man like Pat consider it a snack or a lunch you know that's the question. Because I think the four fries on the plate give me snack but two hot
Starting point is 01:10:37 dogs it's like give me lunch mm-hmm I don't know. What you think Rob? Because the num num num? I think it's num num num lunchtime. Let's do it. No, no lunchtime Unfortunately, this is It's a little midday Just typical midday snack snackish stuff two, five fries, seven pickles and a watermelon. And a little snackity snack. Yeah. Our grand finale, it's New Year's Eve.
Starting point is 01:11:13 Okay. All right. So here's Pat and Chappelle, where is he? He's on a Times Square, right? It kinda looks like it, yeah. Yeah. I don't know. Brandon, are you able to spot this? This is Times Square.
Starting point is 01:11:28 I think it's far from where the ball drops, but this is definitely, you could see the ball from standing in this spot. Okay, so Pat is out at Times Square with three potential captions. We have A, ball drop. Happy New Year 2024. B. Not my pet.
Starting point is 01:11:48 This is ridiculous. F this, one and done for us. Okay. Or C, too cold out here. Need to piss. Happy New Year. Now is that Pat's wife, Brandon? Believe it is.
Starting point is 01:12:02 Okay. From my copious research, I believe that that is. Okay. So I think we're in the same position that we were in on the last one where we immediately rule out A, and we're between this is ridiculous, F this, one and done for us.
Starting point is 01:12:16 I mean, that's not the first time that's been said about Pat. Or too called out here, need to piss, happy new year. Now the thing is Rob, you're a New Yorker. Have you ever done the ball drop? No interest, no interest. Not my scene. From what I've been told, it's not all it's cracked up to be.
Starting point is 01:12:34 So I can imagine it being a one and done for most people. That said, it's also very cold. And it'd be hard to pee in places in New York at that time because everything would be super crowded. Yes, Well, that's the problem. Yeah. Mm hmm. People are wearing diapers from what I understand. That's what the word is. Yeah. Yeah. So now just following the logic here, Chappelle, that, you know, the option C is a journey. It's negative, negative lands on positive.
Starting point is 01:13:05 B is consistently negative. It's negative, negative, lands on positive. Mm-hmm. B is consistently negative. Like, I don't think that Pat is changing tone. I know it's the new year and there's a message of hope and positivity, but I think that he's probably more consistent on the negativity in a post. I don't think that he's like really gear shifting mid caption.
Starting point is 01:13:28 I love that you brought that up because he does look absolutely miserable if not like the best unenthused by all of this, but look at his wife. She's on top of her life. She's trying to make the best of it. It's like, the picture does give me mixed feelings. Like he looks like I was forced to take this photo. She looks like, hey, we're enjoying ourselves. It's, it's New Year's Eve.
Starting point is 01:13:46 It's a night out. Right. It's a night out. Yeah. But I'm, I'm, I think I'm with Pat. I think if it wasn't me, I'd be like, this is ridiculous. F this. Yeah. One and done for us. Okay. That's option B. Lock it in baby. We did it inside Pat's head. Lock it in, baby. We did it inside Pat's head. Yeah. It only goes six questions and we're there.
Starting point is 01:14:09 Man. That was fun for me. I really, what do you count? What do you count as an old school guess for RJP? Put them on the bulletin board. I think that's awesome. Okay. All right.
Starting point is 01:14:21 Let's get talking with T-Bird. Yes. Okay. Brandon, uh, that was a great job on the game. Uh. All right. Talk to a T-Bird. Yes. Okay. Brandon, that was a great job on the game. Very fun. And your work here is definitely appreciated by everybody. And is even on social media, people are even noticing some of the work that you're doing here on the social media account. the other night you tweeted I cannot be overestimated
Starting point is 01:14:48 I'm sorry cannot be overstated how this is about to be the most Maximized joint slay in the history of survivor and people took notice when we had on Twitter the Sir by bore account Notice our JP has a gay intern question mark That's me Sir Bybor account. Notice, RJP has a gay intern. Question mark? That's me. Cheers. Amen. Amen. I'm the gay intern. And I'm gonna keep I'm gonna keep on tween.
Starting point is 01:15:14 Neither gay nor an intern. Nope. Yeah. But I'm But he can recognize a joint slay. When he sees one. I can recognize a joint slay. You don't have to be gay to recognize a joint sligh. You don't have to be gay to recognize a joint sleigh. Period. That's not an Instagram caption from Patrick, but it's something for me.
Starting point is 01:15:31 It could be. It could be later. It could be later. All right. Brandon, great job. Happy St. Patrick's Day. Amen. Enjoy the five guys.
Starting point is 01:15:40 All right. All right, and then Chappelle, I have one other thing to share. Okay. We talked about one of the David's that we played in the St. Patrick's day game. But it was another member of the David's tribe who most recently was on television as very astute viewers spotted friends of the pod, Christian, you Bickey at the white Lotus actually technically not at the white Lotus, but on the White Lotus Yeah, and Emily
Starting point is 01:16:11 Yes, yeah, look at that, you know That's why Uncle Carl hates him. What? Oh yeah, look at this. Three Davids came up in this. Since when did you get here? Three Davids came up in this Club Condo episode and I think that's great. We got Pat, we got Christian and we even got Davy. I have to say that Josh Wiggler and I podcast about this whole episode.
Starting point is 01:16:44 We missed it. We missed it. And then my phone my phone starts blowing up like hey, did you see Christian like I? Was I was not looking for it? No, I mean there could have been better moments to use Christian imagine him like at the back at the villa in the pool You know like that would be fun. Yeah, you know could have been at so many of the different party scenes That would be fun. Yeah. You know? Could have been at so many of the different party scenes. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:06 Yeah. Yeah. Or at least in the streets with the water guns, you know, bring them back. Bring them back. Yeah. Maybe this is setting him up for future seasons. And if we've done three, yeah, cause he's canon now. Cause like remember that time I was at the white Lotus, you know, I was near the white
Starting point is 01:17:21 Lotus. Now let's go to the white Lotus, you know? So the next one Christian's there. Christian and Pat are a pair for the next white lotus season. Okay Alright she put anything else on your mind for survivor 48 or beyond One thing I've been thinking about 48 is that I do really love this this rivalry between Mary and say what would you say? Would you would you say I obviously this is very very early on, but iconic rivalries in survivor history, what would be your top five or something like that? You got a good list in your head,
Starting point is 01:17:51 the people that were diametrically opposed to each other. I mean, I think that the top one to me is Robin Russell. They created a whole season just based off of that. That is correct. The challenge with coming up with great survivor rivalries is that a lot of times one of them gets the other person out. So we don't really have very extended survivor rivalry battles happening.
Starting point is 01:18:18 So like Robin Russell goes for six episodes in Heroes vs. Villains. We end up, because it's so iconic, we launch a whole other season about that. I'm trying to think of some of the other ones. I feel like maybe just sticking with Rob, Robin Lex. Yeah, that's probably a little bit, like, a little lesser, just because we know that they're one-sided.
Starting point is 01:18:41 We saw the dissolution of that, yeah. I mean, I think Sandra and Russell. Sandra and Russell, maybe Rupert and Johnny Fairplay, maybe Sandra and Johnny Fairplay. I think those have been good ones. Yeah. What about, speaking of David vs. Goliath, what about Angelina and Dr. Allison?
Starting point is 01:19:01 Do you remember that saga throughout that season? That was a very one-sided rivalry though. Yeah, but Dr. Allison was there. She knew about it. She just couldn't do it. Also, it seems like the Marion Say rivalry has turned a corner. If they become great friends now, I feel like it almost now ruins the rivalry.
Starting point is 01:19:16 Well, I don't think they become great friends until after the season is over though. It's like Notting Hill. Yeah. Maybe like, was it Venus and Q had a good little back and forward, I guess, throughout their season as well. But yeah, I want to see these rivalries make it as far as possible, right? Where they're sitting across from each other and it's like, they've got to the point where
Starting point is 01:19:35 I can't beat you or I can't get you out, so I have to work with you even though I don't like you and we're at the final trial. That's the dream. And we're fighting tooth and nail, right? That's what I'm saying. We don't want the rivalries to extinguish each other. We want it to build and build and build and just go on to the end.
Starting point is 01:19:49 And so I'm hoping this will outlast those other ones. But those are pretty good ones that you mentioned. Yeah. And if it does happen, I think the tribe swap could really help it this week. I think in these small tribes, it's very hard to have these rivalries where you keep going to tribal council and to have the two rivals make it through. So we could be on the verge of something because I think
Starting point is 01:20:08 that it'll be great if they become friends. But if one of them kind of screws the other one over again at some point, like we are back to square one. I should have never trusted you. Yeah. Yeah. But we will see what happens. My biggest, my biggest pair in Adam after leaving last episode with Cedric's wish was, hey, can you two ladies just get along, and I'll just make a decision that's really bad for my game and be OK with it?
Starting point is 01:20:32 And they said, yeah, of course. What if they did? What if they really did get along and then go on to vote Cedric out? It's kind of like grand opening, grand closing. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes, you know, that kind of thing. So I'm hoping we get some fireworks. That said, I've been really mean to Cedric this episode, but he's got to bounce back. This was tough. This was tough. I don't know what happened here, but we got to
Starting point is 01:20:54 get it together. But this season has been fun. I think that we went through most of this Club Kano without mentioning half the cast. And that just shows you that we're getting some fire from the people that are heavily featured on the show. All right, big week coming up. The swap is happening. I will be back with Stephen Fishback to break it all down after the episode. Join us at 9.35 on Wednesday night for this week's Know It Alls and we'll do it all again when we have our interview with the player who got voted off and another week of RHAP. Chappelle, what else is coming up for you? A warm recap kickback.
Starting point is 01:21:30 We got Abbot Elementary coverage going on. We got Beauty in Black with Tyler Perry. We talked about his whole entire series and we have that coming this week as well. Me and Mary are still talking about Extracted. I think Extracted got the week off. So if you're an Extracted fan, be back in a week to talk about that.
Starting point is 01:21:43 There's some crazy stuff happening in Australian survival right now. Of course we got Deal or No Deal Island slowly coming to an end, you know, and some exit interviews coming up this week too. So it's a lot of content here on RHJP, but I'm around talking about it. Follow me and subscribe to my podcast,
Starting point is 01:21:59 Recap Kickback, youtube.com slash at recap kickback. All right, great job today, Chappelle. Great job, Brandon Brandon on the game. Thank you so much for joining us.
