WEBVTT - A Sky Full of Stars w/ Leroy Garrett 0:00:03.040 --> 0:00:06.800 Hello everyone, I'm Tory Deal and I'm a Nissa Ferreira 0:00:06.920 --> 0:00:11.200 and this is MTV's official Challenge podcast. Hey We're back, 0:00:11.360 --> 0:00:13.280 We're bad Yay. 0:00:14.400 --> 0:00:17.400 We are so excited to kick off All Starscore with 0:00:17.440 --> 0:00:17.840 you guys. 0:00:17.840 --> 0:00:21.079 This is gonna be amazing. We have been waiting so long. 0:00:21.280 --> 0:00:23.439 I know all of you out there have been waiting 0:00:23.640 --> 0:00:27.760 so long, and here it is, this highly anticipated season 0:00:27.760 --> 0:00:30.280 of All Stars Tour. What are you excited about? 0:00:30.840 --> 0:00:33.159 I'm excited that we don't have to wait any longer, Like, 0:00:33.240 --> 0:00:35.840 can we be real? This has been teased for over 0:00:35.960 --> 0:00:39.000 a year now, Like I have had enough of waiting 0:00:39.040 --> 0:00:42.879 for this. The lineup of this cast is absolutely insane. 0:00:43.159 --> 0:00:45.159 Anybody who's a true fan is gonna look at this 0:00:45.240 --> 0:00:47.960 and be like, oh my gosh, the relationships that happened 0:00:48.000 --> 0:00:49.319 previously to bring them on here. 0:00:49.360 --> 0:00:52.000 We got the Carra, we have a Laurel like we 0:00:52.080 --> 0:00:54.920 have Nicole, We've got Leroy, We've got Rachel hasn't been 0:00:54.960 --> 0:00:59.120 back in EON's Rachel, Tina and Veronica are back together 0:00:59.320 --> 0:01:02.440 like it's mine blowing and I love it and I 0:01:02.480 --> 0:01:06.240 totally totally think it's worth the wait. But I wish 0:01:06.319 --> 0:01:08.240 we could have eighteen thousand seasons of it. 0:01:08.360 --> 0:01:11.000 Let's get into this first episode because there's so much 0:01:11.000 --> 0:01:11.560 to talk about. 0:01:11.560 --> 0:01:12.280 There's so much to cover. 0:01:12.360 --> 0:01:14.360 We got introduced to so many people that we haven't 0:01:14.360 --> 0:01:18.120 seen in a really long time. The challenge was absolutely insane, Like, 0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:20.520 I think they really stepped it up to make sure 0:01:20.520 --> 0:01:22.280 that these all Stars are being pushed to their limit, 0:01:22.760 --> 0:01:24.760 and we learned how this game is going to go 0:01:24.840 --> 0:01:27.200 moving forward in terms of the structure of how it's 0:01:27.240 --> 0:01:29.039 going to play out. So I think there's a lot 0:01:29.080 --> 0:01:31.000 to discuss here, and I want to know what you 0:01:31.080 --> 0:01:34.480 think first about the performance and the breakdown of that 0:01:34.520 --> 0:01:35.319 first challenge. 0:01:35.800 --> 0:01:38.000 Well, yeah, this first challenge reached for the stars one 0:01:38.040 --> 0:01:40.080 I love stars. I got a tattooed on my body. 0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:42.720 The fact that you've got to get a star to 0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:46.120 run the final, and the fact that this first challenge 0:01:46.160 --> 0:01:48.400 has stars that get to fit on these little pegs 0:01:48.400 --> 0:01:52.680 and they're in different orientations, which makes it hard because 0:01:52.960 --> 0:01:55.960 when they it's it's hot as shit. Clearly these people 0:01:55.960 --> 0:01:59.600 look like they're having a hard time even if you're fit. 0:01:59.760 --> 0:02:04.440 This seemed like a pretty difficult challenge except for Kara, 0:02:04.800 --> 0:02:08.400 who totally dominated it. Yeah, and was done in what 0:02:08.480 --> 0:02:14.640 seemed like five minutes. It definitely was like the world's 0:02:14.639 --> 0:02:18.800 longest shuttle run, though like it did not seem it 0:02:18.800 --> 0:02:22.680 did not seem easy. So for viewers and other challengers 0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:27.000 who say that All Stars is, you know, easy and whatever, 0:02:27.200 --> 0:02:30.400 it's not. I'm exhausted watching these people run back and forth. 0:02:30.480 --> 0:02:34.600 So I mean, my kudos to everybody who participated because 0:02:34.600 --> 0:02:39.720 it did not seem easy. Wasn't surprised by Kara Avery 0:02:39.840 --> 0:02:43.519 or Rachel. I mean, Rachel's always been incredible at the challenges. 0:02:43.560 --> 0:02:46.000 I came to parties, she came to play. She still 0:02:46.040 --> 0:02:50.040 seems to have that mindset. So I am super happy. 0:02:50.120 --> 0:02:53.480 And then you have Brad, Adam and Brandon winning for 0:02:53.520 --> 0:02:57.560 the guys. I'm so happy about Brandon. He has definitely 0:02:57.560 --> 0:03:00.000 gotten the shitty end of the stick on previous challenge. 0:03:00.480 --> 0:03:03.440 I am a friend and I have done challenges with 0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:06.960 him before, and he's all around, like awesome guy. It's 0:03:07.000 --> 0:03:10.240 just so great to see, you know, it's nostalgic for me. 0:03:10.280 --> 0:03:12.360 I wasn't there. I'm totally jealous of it, but like 0:03:12.400 --> 0:03:15.160 to see the people I played with over the last 0:03:15.160 --> 0:03:17.800 two decades come back and still kick ass. 0:03:18.200 --> 0:03:21.360 I also think like this challenge was obviously really incredibly hard, 0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:23.840 and I was surprised to see who came at the bottom. Like, 0:03:24.600 --> 0:03:26.760 I don't want to throw any shade on our boy, Leroy, 0:03:26.800 --> 0:03:27.320 and I'm really. 0:03:27.560 --> 0:03:29.560 Excited to get into it with him in this episode. 0:03:29.560 --> 0:03:32.480 But like, LeRoy's like a beast, So it's like I 0:03:33.160 --> 0:03:35.120 want to know what went wrong? 0:03:35.520 --> 0:03:38.640 But chance it like look at the pieces and look 0:03:38.680 --> 0:03:42.640 how like right, Ryan was Dick spacing? Yeah, you knew 0:03:42.680 --> 0:03:44.400 that they were in different Once you found out that 0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:46.680 they were in different orientations, I think that you would 0:03:46.800 --> 0:03:48.680 weild my advice you go back to the box, you 0:03:48.720 --> 0:03:52.320 look for said orientations. I would spend more time at 0:03:52.320 --> 0:03:54.680 the box trying to find the right star so I 0:03:54.680 --> 0:03:56.360 wouldn't have to run back and forth as much. But 0:03:56.440 --> 0:03:58.800 easier said than done. I wasn't there. You know how 0:03:58.800 --> 0:04:01.880 stressful it is when you are. But yeah, Lee Roy 0:04:02.040 --> 0:04:05.839 was like totally and even Derek I think Derek has 0:04:05.880 --> 0:04:10.480 proved himself. Tyree's you know, he's a trainer, Like, yeah, 0:04:10.520 --> 0:04:13.000 you never know what can happen in these challenges. 0:04:13.480 --> 0:04:16.760 Adam really surprised me too, because Adam isn't somebody that 0:04:16.839 --> 0:04:17.799 I know anything about. 0:04:17.839 --> 0:04:20.240 I don't know his history. Oh, he's always been a beast. 0:04:20.760 --> 0:04:22.680 And like, if I would have looked at the guys lineup, 0:04:22.760 --> 0:04:25.400 I would have just put, like, you know, Tony above 0:04:25.440 --> 0:04:27.320 Adam just based on what I've seen Tony do. 0:04:27.640 --> 0:04:31.159 Adam absolutely knocked it out of the water. Yeah, he 0:04:31.279 --> 0:04:33.160 really did. He knocked it out of the water. He 0:04:33.240 --> 0:04:34.960 knocked it out of the water. He knocked it straight. 0:04:38.320 --> 0:04:40.479 I can't. This is why I love you so much. 0:04:40.720 --> 0:04:44.479 Your analogy is the best. They're the worst. That's what 0:04:44.560 --> 0:04:49.359 makes you, you know what. I like that you know 0:04:49.440 --> 0:04:51.640 the bottom four you got to pick from there, and 0:04:51.680 --> 0:04:54.040 then the top I thought the top six were gonna 0:04:54.040 --> 0:04:59.279 be safe same, but but they're not. No, it's just 0:04:59.320 --> 0:05:01.800 a two winners. And then you have this middle group. 0:05:02.040 --> 0:05:04.800 So it's almost like you wanted a win to get 0:05:04.839 --> 0:05:07.000 a star, but you also like we're cool in the 0:05:07.040 --> 0:05:11.240 middle because you have power, you know. So it's interesting 0:05:11.320 --> 0:05:13.160 like do you want to win or do you want 0:05:13.200 --> 0:05:14.120 to wait till later. 0:05:14.839 --> 0:05:18.159 This blend of how they're doing it is amazing because 0:05:18.200 --> 0:05:20.800 also you're penalized if you don't perform well, which I 0:05:20.839 --> 0:05:22.960 think a lot of the challenge fandom really does like, 0:05:23.120 --> 0:05:25.839 because then you can't just be targeting the same person 0:05:25.880 --> 0:05:28.600 over and over again. Now it's solely based on performance, 0:05:28.600 --> 0:05:31.120 but there's a pool that you get to choose from, 0:05:31.160 --> 0:05:33.800 and now it makes the bottom political, which, like you 0:05:33.839 --> 0:05:36.080 were saying, like it brings it to that question do 0:05:36.120 --> 0:05:38.200 we want to win to get my star or do 0:05:38.240 --> 0:05:40.040 I need to have the power this week to make 0:05:40.080 --> 0:05:42.240 sure that somebody who might be in the bottom is 0:05:42.279 --> 0:05:43.240 going to be safe? 0:05:43.839 --> 0:05:44.000 Right? 0:05:44.000 --> 0:05:45.719 Because that's the only challenge where you can win a 0:05:45.760 --> 0:05:49.240 star as we know so far. So it's there's gonna 0:05:49.360 --> 0:05:51.839 I mean later in the season, there's gonna be new incentive. 0:05:52.440 --> 0:05:57.719 Oh besides safety or you know whatever else. Do you 0:05:57.760 --> 0:05:59.800 think that they're not going to compete for stars every 0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:03.640 single week? No, they're not. All the six stars were 0:06:03.680 --> 0:06:06.799 already given out. I thought that it would reshuffle everything. 0:06:06.920 --> 0:06:10.479 That's what I thought too, But that's why I was confused, 0:06:10.480 --> 0:06:13.360 and then I had I had the biggest brain fart 0:06:13.480 --> 0:06:17.520 until I was like, oh so if Kara, so listen, 0:06:17.520 --> 0:06:20.679 if I'm correct, Kara, and all six of the people 0:06:20.720 --> 0:06:23.400 that were those are all the stars that are given 0:06:23.400 --> 0:06:25.360 out because I think those are the amount of people 0:06:25.400 --> 0:06:27.800 that are going to be in the final this, So 0:06:28.240 --> 0:06:33.839 in order to get stars, you have to steal them. 0:06:33.920 --> 0:06:36.120 Okay. I think that's why car was like, you need 0:06:36.160 --> 0:06:38.720 to you need to steal mine. I would have to 0:06:38.760 --> 0:06:40.360 be dead to like leg go my star. 0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:43.880 This is such an important revelation because I think a 0:06:43.880 --> 0:06:45.640 lot of the viewers are also gonna have to go 0:06:45.800 --> 0:06:48.400 babystep through this because it's a genius. 0:06:48.480 --> 0:06:50.960 I think I'm correct. I'm pretty sure you are. Because 0:06:50.960 --> 0:06:52.720 it's the only thing that would make sense because if 0:06:52.760 --> 0:06:55.680 you keep winning stars, people would start to it. It 0:06:55.760 --> 0:06:58.359 puts like giveback and like the skull moment and like 0:06:58.440 --> 0:07:01.680 whatever else, right, like you have to go now, you 0:07:01.760 --> 0:07:04.080 have to go. Like the first challenge sets the tone. 0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:06.599 I don't know what's gonna happen later, but the stars 0:07:06.600 --> 0:07:09.239 are given out. He didn't say they're gonna be extra stars. 0:07:09.600 --> 0:07:12.040 He didn't say you get a star for trying, right, 0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:14.200 he said, now you're gonna have to steal stars. It's 0:07:14.240 --> 0:07:17.200 literally six spots at the table. That's what it is. Like, 0:07:17.800 --> 0:07:20.440 it's they're stealing now you know at least yeah, now 0:07:20.440 --> 0:07:22.640 you know it's three and you know what it's like 0:07:22.680 --> 0:07:24.720 to be in like before the final and you're like, 0:07:24.880 --> 0:07:26.760 this is it TJ's gonna tell us we're going to 0:07:26.760 --> 0:07:28.680 the final. There's like ten of us, I know, and 0:07:28.720 --> 0:07:30.600 we're like, I know this number isn't right, but you 0:07:30.640 --> 0:07:34.320 never know. Yeah, now there's double elimination and there's something 0:07:34.480 --> 0:07:38.120 you know, so it's it's interesting, but this is the 0:07:38.120 --> 0:07:40.680 way they used to play it. You know, there was one, two, 0:07:40.720 --> 0:07:44.840 and three, and I would love to see how how 0:07:44.880 --> 0:07:47.120 this goes. I love that they bring like the old school, 0:07:47.360 --> 0:07:49.440 you know format of like knowing that they're going to 0:07:49.480 --> 0:07:51.200 be six people in the final. 0:07:51.440 --> 0:07:54.360 Yeah, as we know so far, it was like this 0:07:54.480 --> 0:07:58.280 amazing blend of like great competition, great strategy, but then 0:07:58.280 --> 0:08:01.520 also these really hilarious funnymons like you have TJ missing 0:08:01.520 --> 0:08:05.160 the apple, you have tea drink, you have the Tony 0:08:05.200 --> 0:08:08.360 thing where he's like goes, I'm sorry, goes. 0:08:08.160 --> 0:08:13.080 For Veronica's flag. I can't. I mean, it was the 0:08:13.280 --> 0:08:18.320 build up to I'm back baby in it Tony time. 0:08:18.440 --> 0:08:21.920 I'm like, it's Veronica time because that's the name you pull, dude, 0:08:22.480 --> 0:08:25.960 not him of any dough for it. And he wasn't 0:08:26.000 --> 0:08:29.640 even gonna be top three. He was like the sixth person. 0:08:32.440 --> 0:08:37.040 It was the seventh, seventh, whatever, like eighth, he. 0:08:37.120 --> 0:08:42.400 Wasn't or even better, you know what I mean. 0:08:42.720 --> 0:08:47.040 Listen, it was hilarious and in proper Tony fashion. Oh god, 0:08:47.040 --> 0:08:50.319 it was so so good. All right, So the middle 0:08:50.320 --> 0:08:54.920 group not nominates Tyree and Steve, and we have Tyree 0:08:54.960 --> 0:08:57.520 going back in and it's sad because it seems like 0:08:57.559 --> 0:08:59.720 it's always his fate to go in the first one 0:09:00.280 --> 0:09:03.840 and they have to play catch a falling star. What 0:09:03.880 --> 0:09:05.079 do you think about this elimination? 0:09:05.640 --> 0:09:08.880 I think it's it's nice because there was that aspect 0:09:08.960 --> 0:09:12.360 of it could have gotten physical, true, but also at 0:09:12.360 --> 0:09:15.319 the same time, like it was, it was really good 0:09:15.360 --> 0:09:17.959 to watch as a viewer because the pendulum swung. At 0:09:17.960 --> 0:09:20.440 one point in time, Tyree was absolutely crushing it and 0:09:20.480 --> 0:09:23.280 then Steve. You I thought for sure he was gonna lose, 0:09:23.320 --> 0:09:25.000 and I was like, damn, you know that sucks, But 0:09:25.200 --> 0:09:27.319 he made a great strategy mid game. 0:09:27.480 --> 0:09:29.240 If I if it were me, I would have put 0:09:29.280 --> 0:09:31.560 all of them in my sports bra. Yeah, you would 0:09:31.559 --> 0:09:33.959 have gone nuts. Literally. I would have been like a 0:09:34.040 --> 0:09:38.240 chipmunk who runs the world Squirrels, who runs the world squirrels? 0:09:39.200 --> 0:09:39.600 Wow? 0:09:40.240 --> 0:09:46.400 It cats. So if I were in front of you, 0:09:46.440 --> 0:09:47.720 I'd be on the floor like Pete le. 0:09:49.559 --> 0:09:49.719 No. 0:09:50.600 --> 0:09:52.760 I thought it was great because it was anyone's game. 0:09:52.800 --> 0:09:56.839 But god like Steve hiding it from himself, Oh my god, 0:09:56.920 --> 0:09:59.520 that killed me. That was about to be the biggest mind. 0:09:59.720 --> 0:10:01.760 I mean, I didn't know where it was because after all, 0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:03.640 the sand was all over him. I couldn't find the 0:10:04.000 --> 0:10:07.440 fallen fallen stars ones, I couldn't see anything. Yeah, we're 0:10:07.480 --> 0:10:09.600 sandy balls. I was very confused. 0:10:09.640 --> 0:10:13.520 I'm like, how did Tyree not notice that Steve was 0:10:13.600 --> 0:10:15.360 hiding though? But I guess like there was just so 0:10:15.440 --> 0:10:17.280 many to go through that his mind was just so 0:10:17.400 --> 0:10:19.640 focused on what was right in front of his face. 0:10:19.640 --> 0:10:23.400 How many did he hide? Like six? Because he was 0:10:23.440 --> 0:10:25.679 just swimming there like a sea otter for a little bit, 0:10:25.840 --> 0:10:28.280 just like lounging. Yeah, and he was like, I'm just 0:10:28.320 --> 0:10:30.920 going to do this. But we've seen it before where 0:10:30.960 --> 0:10:35.000 people have done stuff like that Cete and uh drug 0:10:35.000 --> 0:10:38.800 stuff along the bottom of the water whatever, because you know, 0:10:39.000 --> 0:10:41.880 they don't tell you certain things you can't do. So 0:10:42.280 --> 0:10:44.360 you know, that's smart on Steve for being able to 0:10:44.520 --> 0:10:47.960 be quick on his feet. Yes, yes, I and get 0:10:48.000 --> 0:10:50.000 that done. But I still feel bad for Tyree because 0:10:50.880 --> 0:10:53.560 he was just so close. Yeah, well, like you know, 0:10:53.800 --> 0:10:55.080 with this game, we've seen it. 0:10:55.120 --> 0:10:58.439 Steve went out pretty crappily the last All Stars, and 0:10:58.480 --> 0:10:59.959 he got his ability to come back and get a 0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:02.160 come back. I think as long as there's more All 0:11:02.200 --> 0:11:04.960 Stars that we love a redemption story, you know. 0:11:05.640 --> 0:11:07.400 Yeah, but I don't like when he steals my boo 0:11:07.559 --> 0:11:12.439 star brand. It's been my boo for years. Okay, my babes, Yeah, 0:11:12.480 --> 0:11:16.079 who would you have stolen your star from? Anissa? I 0:11:16.120 --> 0:11:18.120 would have gotten a star in the first Child. Oh 0:11:18.280 --> 0:11:21.840 what's a good answer? You know me in first Challenges? Yeah, 0:11:22.120 --> 0:11:24.600 I don't have a bad time, and it's a star 0:11:24.800 --> 0:11:27.240 like puzzly kind of thing. Yeah, you would have crushed it. 0:11:27.520 --> 0:11:29.280 I would have picked up all the boxes on my 0:11:29.320 --> 0:11:30.880 fucking back and I would have put them next to 0:11:30.920 --> 0:11:32.960 each other because I would not have wanted to do 0:11:33.040 --> 0:11:37.200 a shuttle run in the hot sun of Africa. Dude. 0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:40.240 And actually, funny story, we actually competed there for Global 0:11:40.320 --> 0:11:42.320 Champions in that exact same house. 0:11:42.360 --> 0:11:45.160 I was like, I know that water slide, Oh my god, 0:11:45.240 --> 0:11:47.440 you did.

I would love 0:14:17.400 --> 0:14:22.040 to introduce this wonderful human being to the podcast. He 0:14:22.200 --> 0:14:25.240 said he retired, but clearly not because we see him 0:14:25.680 --> 0:14:29.040 on this season of All Stars. For he was on 0:14:29.160 --> 0:14:32.920 Real World Las Vegas and he's done thirteen seasons of 0:14:32.960 --> 0:14:36.480 the challenge. Please welcome Leroy Garrett. 0:14:37.360 --> 0:14:41.080 That was great. I actually thank you. I retired. I 0:14:41.080 --> 0:14:43.840 retired from the challenge. It's not All Stars too totally different. 0:14:44.960 --> 0:14:47.920 But isn't All Stars considered a challenge? I mean, clearly 0:14:47.960 --> 0:14:51.560 from the first episode, it's amazing when you pulled up, 0:14:51.600 --> 0:14:52.560 did it feel different? 0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:54.440 And I feel like a different challenge where you're like, wait, 0:14:54.480 --> 0:14:55.760 this feels like the Challenge again. 0:14:56.640 --> 0:14:59.640 It was super nostalgic seeing like all the people from 0:14:59.680 --> 0:15:01.560 back in to day, people who have been filmed with 0:15:01.640 --> 0:15:04.920 in a while. So, I mean, it definitely still felt like, 0:15:05.240 --> 0:15:07.800 you know, a regular challenge, but you know, being there, 0:15:08.400 --> 0:15:10.720 it definitely was like a like when I first started, 0:15:10.760 --> 0:15:13.040 like my first season one, I'm like, damn, this is 0:15:13.080 --> 0:15:14.960 this is totally different to walk into a challenge. 0:15:15.720 --> 0:15:17.960 Yeah, that house though looks sick. 0:15:18.760 --> 0:15:19.560 The house was nice. 0:15:19.560 --> 0:15:19.720 Man. 0:15:19.760 --> 0:15:21.600 They let us The way they let us into the 0:15:21.640 --> 0:15:24.640 house was they went by seniority. So who's ever done 0:15:24.680 --> 0:15:27.480 it the longest? I think Keifla and Flora, they all 0:15:27.480 --> 0:15:29.400 were able to go in first and pick their own rooms, 0:15:29.800 --> 0:15:30.800 and then they had what. 0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:33.960 I want, that's what I will. I've been pushing for 0:15:34.080 --> 0:15:35.800 that for like the last decade because. 0:15:35.600 --> 0:15:37.360 I don't want to be one of the first ones. 0:15:38.120 --> 0:15:41.800 Thank you were riding in on my dinosaur. I can't wait. 0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:45.560 How was it to watch the episode back? Though? Like 0:15:46.040 --> 0:15:47.360 I feel like it's crazyly right. 0:15:47.400 --> 0:15:49.240 I remember sitting on that stage with you in Double 0:15:49.240 --> 0:15:52.120 Agents and You're like, I'm gonna retire, and CT was like. 0:15:52.080 --> 0:15:54.360 You're gonna come back, you know you always do. 0:15:54.440 --> 0:15:57.000 Everyone comes back, And then now you you made your 0:15:57.000 --> 0:15:59.760 comeback in a way like yeah, maybe it's not the actual. 0:15:59.520 --> 0:16:01.640 Challenge, but it kind of fuck it is. 0:16:01.840 --> 0:16:03.680 So what was it like being back in the house 0:16:03.720 --> 0:16:05.800 and then like, obviously you get to be there with 0:16:05.880 --> 0:16:07.880 Cam again, and what made you want to come back 0:16:07.920 --> 0:16:08.880 out of retirement? 0:16:11.160 --> 0:16:13.840 I mean, well, we all know while into retirement from 0:16:14.400 --> 0:16:15.720 I think everybody does you know? 0:16:15.760 --> 0:16:16.680 I made that very clear. 0:16:18.160 --> 0:16:22.160 So once the changes were made over with the network, 0:16:23.280 --> 0:16:25.520 gave me made me feel a lot better than a 0:16:25.560 --> 0:16:27.440 policy was put in place that what happened to me 0:16:27.480 --> 0:16:30.640 in the past wouldn't happen to anyone else. So I 0:16:30.680 --> 0:16:33.040 was like, that's all I really wanted, you know, was 0:16:33.120 --> 0:16:37.360 just for the network to take some accountability and to 0:16:37.400 --> 0:16:39.680 be able to move forward. So it was I never 0:16:39.760 --> 0:16:41.480 when I actually ended up leaving the show. It wasn't 0:16:41.480 --> 0:16:43.000 because I hated the show where I was tired of 0:16:43.000 --> 0:16:45.080 doing the show. I loved it right, but I was 0:16:45.160 --> 0:16:48.760 just mentally what I was going through, and especially at 0:16:48.760 --> 0:16:51.000 that time with the whole George Floyd thing and everything 0:16:51.040 --> 0:16:51.800 I had been through, I. 0:16:51.760 --> 0:16:53.880 Was like, man, I'm tired of this, Like this is 0:16:53.960 --> 0:16:54.840 this is, isn't it. 0:16:55.560 --> 0:16:57.960 So once, like I said, the changes were made over 0:16:58.000 --> 0:17:00.640 at the network, I felt comfortable with coming back. And 0:17:00.680 --> 0:17:03.120 then it was perfect timing too, so we had Cam 0:17:03.160 --> 0:17:07.280 and I just had a baby, so it was like, Yo, 0:17:07.440 --> 0:17:09.320 let's do this. My sister decided that she will watch 0:17:09.359 --> 0:17:11.840 him while we were gonna be gone. But yeah, I was. 0:17:11.920 --> 0:17:13.639 I was super excited to be back. I was so 0:17:13.640 --> 0:17:14.360 happy to be back. 0:17:15.440 --> 0:17:19.720 I'm happy that that you could feel whole going back 0:17:19.760 --> 0:17:22.119 on the show, because I know it can take a 0:17:22.160 --> 0:17:24.679 toll on you just as is just as a person 0:17:24.720 --> 0:17:27.120 on the show. But like I think, with the things 0:17:27.119 --> 0:17:30.040 that you've gone through we've gone through, it's nice to 0:17:30.080 --> 0:17:32.280 come back and feel like you were heard and seen 0:17:32.640 --> 0:17:35.639 and like you can do it and it's like okay 0:17:36.000 --> 0:17:36.600 and it's safe. 0:17:36.640 --> 0:17:37.520 Yeah, that was huge. 0:17:37.720 --> 0:17:39.800 Well, before we did the season, I don't know if 0:17:39.840 --> 0:17:41.720 I'll know it, but they had well, now you have 0:17:41.800 --> 0:17:44.080 to you have to do like a. 0:17:44.240 --> 0:17:47.440 Uh bias training. 0:17:47.760 --> 0:17:50.639 Yeah. Yeah, so so that we've never had to do 0:17:50.680 --> 0:17:51.439 nothing like that before. 0:17:51.920 --> 0:17:53.879 Lero, you and I were supposed to teach it together, 0:17:54.160 --> 0:17:55.920 but I was the call with the other guy. 0:17:56.160 --> 0:17:58.480 Yeah, we've never done anything like that before. So that's 0:17:58.480 --> 0:18:00.680 so that made me feel really good. Before the season, 0:18:00.680 --> 0:18:03.200 they let me actually talk to the cast and explain 0:18:03.880 --> 0:18:06.720 what wasn't going to be tolerated, talked about everything that 0:18:06.720 --> 0:18:08.560 happened to me, So it was it was really dope. 0:18:09.119 --> 0:18:11.440 They really made me feel comfortable, and I think that's 0:18:11.440 --> 0:18:13.159 for everybody, not just for me. 0:18:13.440 --> 0:18:16.160 There's shit just happened that everybody still like moving forward, 0:18:16.200 --> 0:18:18.520 I feel like it's a clean slate. But yeah, being 0:18:18.520 --> 0:18:21.720 back was it was a blessing and it was it 0:18:21.760 --> 0:18:24.320 was just fun.
