What's up, everybody is Royley. I'm on the Zach Nichols podcast talking about season 41 as my early exit to the game. Make sure you all tune in. It's going to be some good stuff, some funny stuff. You might even cry. Welcome back to the Zach Nichols podcast. I'm here with the Clueless Pierre. But more importantly, for the second time, Leroy Garrett.

Hands, Rodo, applause. Oh, that was real. Detroit, stand up. Yes. I have a fucking hilarious story. I want to hear it. Well, you know it. But it was, you have no one.

I'm the type of person who, like, when something funny happens, I just think about it for like weeks afterwards and just randomly laugh out loud. Saturday, last Saturday, we're meeting Leroy. You got to hear this is amazing. Because you know how this like kind of like piggybacks off of Cam's like pumping her own gases ghetto. So. Right. Cam says stuff that like literally like stops me my tracks.

So we're meeting them at the zoo, right? And Cam texts us. She's like, hey, we're going to be a little late. We're like, no worries. We'll walk around a couple times. And when they get there, we're doing like the whole like, oh, what's up? and Cam comes out to me and goes, hey, like, I'm really sorry.

I was like, you know, don't worry. I know what it's like to have Tyler. She goes, it's not the kids. It's black people problems. And I just stopped in my tracks. And I was like, she's like, we're always late. And then Leroy goes, it's true. Oh, yeah.

CPT? Yeah, black people are time for George. So funny because, like, everyone who has kids knows that you can be ready to go 20 minutes early and that toddler just got to be like, I got to poop. Yeah, it's a wrap. All your plans are just trash. So, like, me and general, we get it because it took us. two and a half hours to get all kids ready to go.

It's where we get it. And I was just like, don't worry about it. You know, I get it. It's having kids. She goes, oh, no, it wasn't the kids. Just being black. And I lost my shit. Because, like, when she came on the podcast, she was late, you know, and she goes, I had to do my hair.

And then Leroy didn't fill the car up with gas. So she goes, I had to pump my own gas. She goes, and that is so ghetto. And I lost it. I still laugh about that every single time. She's a late one. I'm always on time. I mean, today was like, like, for me, you was like, you don't have to rush because Zach

has whatever going on. I was like, all right, I'm leaving my thing at night. I'd be there. But for sure, for you all to have four children that are just as young as mine. We have four? I think so.

Maybe another one on the way. If y'all would have one last night. If the procedure checks out, you should have one on the way in a couple months here. No, whenever Jenna gives me that, look, I run. Yeah. He said, oh, shit, I got plans.

Now, the CPT is definitely real. Tiffany always is like, Pierre, why don't you tell me they're coming to town? I said, Tiffany, I tell you right when we're about to film, so they're not late to the podcast, which they always are. Tiffany took, like, three or four guests in a row out to dinner when they were here. And we'd be like, all right, Tiffany, we got to start filming at three. And she's like, oh, yeah, I'll get them there.

Four o'clock. Like, so we call it Tiffany's standing here, like, what's going on? And she's like, you're just finishing up drinks. We're like an hour ago you're supposed to be here. But y'all had a great time at the zoo. Yeah, it was good. But you at the zoo. Yeah, it was good.

Yeah. Like I said in my post Saturday, and we were talking, we were trying to get a picture of all the kids in front of this one thing. And the girls were doing most of it. And I look at Leroy and I'm like, if I was one of these people, I'd be walking by, you guys are a bunch of losers. And Leroy goes, I wouldn't even be here. So Saturday evenings have changed. Yeah, that is fine. Speaking of evenings and us getting together, we won't tell any of the other guests, but we're all confirmed to go to Austin, Texas.

That's right. We're going to reveal it. Austin, Texas. We're going to do a viewing party slash meet and greet. We're still figuring out the logistics on December 3rd to watch the challenge. You're going to be there. You're going to be there. We're going to have some fun.

We'll start promoting that more. But super excited about that. Anything to get out of the house. We'll keep everything else. Hey, we're going to hell. I'm on my way. It's going to be hot as hell down there. At least we're going to get some.

Is it? I think so. No, the weather won't be too bad. It actually be perfect. Yeah. It'll be like a Michigan summer. I mean, you never know. I mean, Texas, you could get a really hot day, though.

Yeah. Yeah. This weather to me isn't bad. I don't mind this at all. Yesterday sucked. Michael's obsessed with the rain. He's been happy as held the last couple days. That's because he doesn't golf.

Correct. I was crying yesterday. Actually, I ended up golfing yesterday. What? I went to the range. Oh, yeah, the range. That don't count. All right, so we're going to get you going to get a golf event too next year.

So by next year, you're going to be a scratch. You know what I'm saying? I'm with that for sure. All right. That's what stuff. So you said anything, get out of the house. Yeah. There you go.

Wait, we're doing an event in prison? Babe, I'm going to be gone for a week. Where are you going to jail? I just want to see what it takes to get there. So, season 41. You know, you're what, the 16th season? Yep, 16th season. I'm only 16.

Hey, just like the Lions. Just like the Lions. Hey, but we see what that happened to the Lions. The best days are yet to come, so we know that, too. Yeah, but it's not like you're never been, I mean, you've been to numerous finals. Yeah, yeah. I'm just picking fun of myself. You better be because at the end of the day, you're still highly regarded, not only in the house.

You know, athletically, you might have had, you know, a below average partner, but you always did your job to empower her. So let's talk about, you know, let's just start from the beginning of this episode. You know, you're working on opposite sides of, you know, kind of Theo and stuff. But like, what was your relationship with him? Because at this point, everybody going after him every single week. Man, I haven't seen Theo. I think the last time I seen was season was 40, which was short-lived,

It was probably like two days. Hey, Dio, good to see it. Oh, buddy. Basically seen one of the way to the bathroom and then I was. The next thing you know, I was on an airplane home. But since then, I think it was probably like World of Worlds too. So, Theo, I mean, we're cool. We'd have issues or anything like that.

We slept downstairs in the same area or whatnot. But coming into the game, obviously, he was with the Brits and with Olivia and they were all, it was separated. So towards the end of the season around, he wanted me to start work with him. He's like, Lee, man, like, when are we going to, like, try to do whatever. I'm thinking like, yeah,

I'm with the, like, I don't know if it was clear or not, but like, I'm working with people upstairs. So he was still trying to, like cut deals or whatever. And I just wasn't with it. It's like a used car sales, man.

That's like crazy to me when people are like, you've gone to multiple eliminations now. Yeah. And when people are like, hey, you want to work together? No. Because the minute you switch and be like,

yeah, I'm going to work with you. Now you're in the next one. Because everyone's like, right, you know, so. There's no way I was going to be on the opposite side of what Nani was on,

right. And it was kind of too late in the game, but he was just trying to do whatever he could. He would have. I would have said, hey, cool, let's cut a deal. I could have cut a side deal, but then I would have been exposed. And I was already in the game where, I mean, it's funny when you said the beginning is that America was below average, but that's what I was this season. For real, for real. Like my mental of how I felt about me competing in the game was like, we kind of on the same level here, baby. So I was happy to have America. I'm like, actually, she's like super smart. A lot less pressure. too. Yeah. So coming in,

I was just hanging out, bro. I literally was just there for one of my favorite Leory clips this season was when you were just sitting there, like Uncle Drew looking out the window and you're like, yeah, I'd just like to sit here and watch you young bucks run around and pray. And pray. Speaking of the young bucks, and one of the next scenes,

we see 22, 23-year-old Sedger getting oiled down and massaged by a gang of older women just living, living in the life, a luxury. No comment. Well, you know, back in the day, you guys were, you know, young bucks in the house and there was, you know, older women in the house here, Veronica's of the world. Who was,

Lisa was still older at that point? I'd definitely turn it over and it'd have been a stiffy. Yeah. I'd have to lay there for a minute. They're like, all right, you're done. I'm like, now I'm just lay here because now I'm going to spook everybody out. Yeah. Pitching time, right?

A little shampoo bottle on your leg. That is a buffalo bat. Who were the cougars when you guys came in? Who took a liking to young Zach and young Leroy back in the day? I mean, I don't think none took a liking to me, but I think Veronica definitely was a cougar back in the day. Rachel, I mean, back. You keep telling me that.

I don't see that. Rachel? Yeah. Not towards, I never did a season with Rachel. I mean, there wasn't like a cougar towards me, but it was, I mean, it was some good-looking women back in the day. For sure. Well, I just thought it was funny, man.

This guy's 22, 23 years old and he's got, you know. Yeah. I've never been in a position where I had girls rub it on my back in the middle of, I mean, I was like, that's pretty good, pretty solid. Yeah, good for you. Do you think it was because they wanted him or do you think it was because he's, they think he's harmless and it's fun. And you tell me?

I don't know. I don't, listen, I don't want nodding rub it out. I mean, you should be too close. I mean, I think he's just, you know, he's just free game. You know what I'm saying? Everyone wants to run up, rub up on somebody. Yeah, I think they probably thought he was harmless. Nobody's about to rub me or Zach's back because it's going to turn over it's over with.

Think about this though. Reasons for the stars. Think about this though. He's 20, what, 22? 22, 23. So 10 years ago, that's a 14 year old getting rubbed on by some 20 year olds. Yeah. That's awesome.

Makes them. For him. Yeah. For him. It's awesome. We get some great FaceTime scenes during this episode. We see Ryan. Shout out to Ryan Keio.

We see America talking to her boyfriend. Her handsome boyfriend. Yeah, and we see you and the whole fan. Kingston put his mouth out. That's his thing. Every picture he's like, Dad. Jenna keeps sending me the pictures. I can confirm that.

Every picture we took at the zoo, he'd go, that's awesome. That's awesome. He just made that up because I know y'all didn't do that. No, it's for real. You know what's crazy when I've seen Olivia talking to Ryan? That concludes the free preview of the Zach Nichols podcast. So go to Patreon and subscribe to see the rest of the shit that we talk.
