WEBVTT - Knot a Problem w/ Amber Borzotra 0:00:02.080 --> 0:00:05.760 What's up, everybody. I'm Tory Deal and I am back 0:00:06.000 --> 0:00:09.559 on the official Challenge podcast. Yes, welcome back, friend, and 0:00:09.760 --> 0:00:12.680 I am a Nissa for Eira And this is MTV's 0:00:12.720 --> 0:00:19.119 official Challenge podcast. Tori, Yeah, hi baby, welcome Yeah, Hi, No, 0:00:19.600 --> 0:00:21.560 thank you. Where the hell have you been and what 0:00:21.600 --> 0:00:25.000 have you been doing? I've missed you. Well, I can't 0:00:25.000 --> 0:00:27.960 say this. I've been working on secret things that I 0:00:28.000 --> 0:00:30.520 can't talk about, but I will say this. It was 0:00:30.560 --> 0:00:33.480 refreshing to take a break from sitting back and talking 0:00:33.479 --> 0:00:35.720 about it. But I missed it. I missed it. I'm 0:00:35.720 --> 0:00:38.760 so happy that Davon and Devid and you know, took 0:00:38.800 --> 0:00:41.440 it over and coddled it like a beautiful baby that 0:00:41.520 --> 0:00:44.279 it is. And I'm happy to be back. I mean 0:00:44.320 --> 0:00:45.920 I have been here for a couple of weeks either, 0:00:46.080 --> 0:00:48.960 you know, I was sick, Yeah, and I got COVID 0:00:49.000 --> 0:00:50.280 and then I was a lot I mean, there was 0:00:50.320 --> 0:00:52.400 a lot of shit going on. But we're back. But 0:00:52.479 --> 0:00:56.520 we're back. We're back. We're in one piece, well two 0:00:56.520 --> 0:01:00.360 pieces of persons. Yeah, we're good. We're here. We're still 0:01:00.400 --> 0:01:02.960 sharing the space with our girls, Davon and Devon. We 0:01:03.200 --> 0:01:06.160 love it. I'm just happy to do what we love. Dude, 0:01:06.200 --> 0:01:08.160 me too, and I'm just happy that we got to 0:01:08.160 --> 0:01:11.280 do this episode where you into eliminations and I'm screaming 0:01:11.640 --> 0:01:15.399 you're so strong Nashi at the top of my and 0:01:15.520 --> 0:01:18.320 I'm like, shut up, you have to move faster, like 0:01:19.240 --> 0:01:21.959 I would move faster if I could move faster, but 0:01:22.000 --> 0:01:26.840 I'm dragging somebody on my knees. What cold sand at 0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:30.600 one am in Argentina? What an episode you went into 0:01:30.640 --> 0:01:35.040 two eliminations started off with Not So Fast with Jordan, Like, 0:01:35.120 --> 0:01:38.039 how did that feel? Horrifying? The last time I did 0:01:38.080 --> 0:01:42.280 Not So Fast, I lost, and I think it was 0:01:42.319 --> 0:01:45.920 triggering to see it again. I was like, I can't 0:01:45.959 --> 0:01:48.560 I remember. I telled Jordan after like when I saw it, 0:01:48.880 --> 0:01:51.280 I got nervous. He goes, I'm glad he didn't tell 0:01:51.320 --> 0:01:54.440 me that you lost the first one, but it was. Yeah, 0:01:54.520 --> 0:01:57.200 he yelled at me a lot, but I got it done, 0:01:57.240 --> 0:02:00.360 and I think that's what mattered for me. I was 0:02:00.440 --> 0:02:03.760 just like so much adrenaline, Like I couldn't even keep 0:02:03.760 --> 0:02:06.160 back the tears after, because it was just like a 0:02:06.200 --> 0:02:08.519 win that I didn't think I had, yeah, with a 0:02:08.600 --> 0:02:13.880 partner that I didn't think I needed. Until this season, 0:02:14.280 --> 0:02:16.680 and he just proved time and time again to like 0:02:17.480 --> 0:02:20.280 really push me. And it's so easy to give up 0:02:20.280 --> 0:02:22.560 on yourself, but when there's somebody else that you have 0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:26.120 to work for, two that sees how strong you can be. 0:02:27.200 --> 0:02:29.920 I mean, not just that was everything. I mean I 0:02:29.960 --> 0:02:34.120 was crying that whole episode. It's a lot to watch 0:02:34.160 --> 0:02:36.680 all of that. And then Casey's my roommate, having her 0:02:37.440 --> 0:02:40.200 like leave was a lot for me knowing how that 0:02:40.240 --> 0:02:42.480 was going to affect Nannie, who's also my roommate. You know, 0:02:43.000 --> 0:02:45.480 it was just a heavy. It was heavy to see. 0:02:45.480 --> 0:02:48.040 It was a lot going back in well, all of 0:02:48.080 --> 0:02:50.320 a sudden, our partners are back after we think we're 0:02:50.320 --> 0:02:53.000 going to go home, then we have to compete then, 0:02:53.040 --> 0:02:55.600 I mean, adrenaline's at an all time high. I mean 0:02:56.200 --> 0:02:59.000 it was a lot. Yeah, I mean, listen, I'm your 0:02:59.000 --> 0:03:01.000 friend and I will always for you. But I did 0:03:01.040 --> 0:03:03.400 not think that you were gonna pull this one out 0:03:03.440 --> 0:03:06.320 with Jordan, and I'm happy that I was wrong. Like, 0:03:06.360 --> 0:03:09.520 it was so beautiful to watch you get this and 0:03:09.560 --> 0:03:12.040 crush it. And yeah, I wish I would show would 0:03:12.040 --> 0:03:15.880 be moving a little bit more around the apparatus and 0:03:16.400 --> 0:03:19.320 really show the berthing of Jordan and I through somebody's ropes. 0:03:19.840 --> 0:03:22.440 But like that man knows how to tie a knot. 0:03:22.480 --> 0:03:24.960 I don't know what. Oh he doesn't let me tell 0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:27.000 you what he doesn't know how to do. But I 0:03:27.000 --> 0:03:32.280 don't know your relationship. How are you feeling? Because he 0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:35.520 left and he was like, I'm so sorry, Tory, I'm sorry, Tory, 0:03:36.000 --> 0:03:40.000 tears in his eyes, You're hysterically crying. Oh he leaves, 0:03:40.440 --> 0:03:43.920 and all of a sudden, you know what, I think 0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:47.000 it's gonna come as a bit of a surprise. Like 0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:49.800 I it felt like relief for him to be gone, 0:03:50.040 --> 0:03:54.360 because it was so heavy, Like I know, everybody wanted 0:03:54.360 --> 0:03:56.680 to get off the ride, so did I, but I couldn't. 0:03:56.680 --> 0:03:59.240 It was I was stuck in it was your ride, 0:03:59.760 --> 0:04:04.920 it was my ride. Was it was so stuck in 0:04:05.040 --> 0:04:09.040 it that when he left, it was like, oh, okay, 0:04:09.080 --> 0:04:11.240 like that part of the game's over. It's time to 0:04:11.240 --> 0:04:12.560 go into the next part of the game. And then 0:04:12.560 --> 0:04:14.680 obviously it wasn't. But you know, like I said, he's 0:04:14.720 --> 0:04:17.200 tied to you, and obviously that's more important. That would 0:04:17.240 --> 0:04:19.840 trump my feeling about being in a house with him. 0:04:19.880 --> 0:04:22.280 We'd already done it. The whole season, so I can 0:04:22.320 --> 0:04:24.080 deal with it for the rest of it. If you know, 0:04:24.200 --> 0:04:28.200 we're lucky enough to not go home, we're getting back. Yeah, 0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:30.679 so it was worth it. But I mean this episode 0:04:30.760 --> 0:04:33.120 was just crazy in itself. It starts off with the elimination, 0:04:33.160 --> 0:04:34.920 it ends with an elimination. You're in both of them, 0:04:35.279 --> 0:04:38.160 so you're night. I did not expect that. I thought 0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:40.279 I was going to get a break. Nope, maybe they'll 0:04:40.320 --> 0:04:42.400 just but it's like a double dose. So like I 0:04:42.480 --> 0:04:45.800 still got it, and I think I needed that. I 0:04:45.839 --> 0:04:48.080 think I needed it all season to like just really 0:04:48.120 --> 0:04:52.800 just keep proving to myself and to other people that yeah, 0:04:52.839 --> 0:04:57.080 this game is hard and even I mean, your friends 0:04:57.080 --> 0:04:59.520 will count you out and that's totally fine. I mean, 0:04:59.720 --> 0:05:03.640 Dev said it to my face. I literally bet against 0:05:03.680 --> 0:05:07.000 you a million times. There was no way. But that's 0:05:07.000 --> 0:05:09.920 the kind of shit that pushes me. Yeah, well, it's 0:05:10.000 --> 0:05:13.839 only fair that the elimination Queen delivers an elimination sandwich 0:05:13.920 --> 0:05:19.200 with Tori's bar from the middle. I did. Really, it 0:05:19.279 --> 0:05:25.159 was a crazy episode. Anissa, gold star, who are you 0:05:25.160 --> 0:05:29.400 giving it to? Who gets the gold star? You? I 0:05:29.440 --> 0:05:31.280 don't want to give myself the GoldStar? I mean I 0:05:31.320 --> 0:05:34.520 could you Enjoredan. I mean we could get the gold star. 0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:37.760 I mean, you can't win two eliminations in one episode 0:05:37.760 --> 0:05:40.200 and not take a gold star. Fine, I'll take one, 0:05:40.920 --> 0:05:43.720 humbly take a gold star. But my time out. You 0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:46.839 know who I'm gonna get my time out to who? Greg? 0:05:46.960 --> 0:05:52.279 The fucking bus driver. I've never seen anybody whip a 0:05:52.400 --> 0:05:55.680 public transportation bus the way that he did to the 0:05:55.680 --> 0:05:58.680 point of nauseum. So time out to Greg. I love 0:05:58.720 --> 0:06:02.880 you so much, you can but safe. Yeah, but you 0:06:02.960 --> 0:06:05.520 made us ill. I like a good production time out. 0:06:05.560 --> 0:06:07.400 I think we also need to give a time out 0:06:07.400 --> 0:06:09.800 to somebody on the cast. And I think that just 0:06:09.839 --> 0:06:11.960 because of how it played out, I would say that 0:06:12.000 --> 0:06:14.440 it has to go to Amber and Chauncey because like 0:06:15.040 --> 0:06:19.719 nominating yourself into elimination like that, I've done it. It's 0:06:20.200 --> 0:06:23.640 it's a terrible idea. I think nominating only worked out 0:06:23.680 --> 0:06:26.400 when you knew what the eliminations were ahead of time, 0:06:26.880 --> 0:06:28.440 back in the day, when there were like only four 0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:30.560 that you had to pick from and you were like 0:06:30.600 --> 0:06:33.080 a boss athlete and you knew I got all these 0:06:33.080 --> 0:06:35.839 things down, yeah, or like you knew at least three 0:06:35.880 --> 0:06:40.080 out of four, you could beat that person, then you could. Yeah. Yeah, 0:06:40.120 --> 0:06:44.360 I think it's it's a tricky move and I'm off, 0:06:44.400 --> 0:06:46.720 but most of the time it yeah, sometimes it does 0:06:46.760 --> 0:06:49.120 pay off. But you know, there's also been legendary time 0:06:49.160 --> 0:06:51.960 so when it hasn't. You saw the CT and J elimination, 0:06:52.120 --> 0:06:55.839 like Jordan did it. Jordan nominates himself. Like there's big 0:06:55.880 --> 0:06:57.679 moments when this does not work out in your favor. 0:06:57.800 --> 0:07:00.800 It happened to you. Yeah, all of you're in time out. 0:07:01.120 --> 0:07:04.760 So why don't we get into Amber's because I really 0:07:04.760 --> 0:07:06.400 want to know what was going on through her head. 0:07:06.400 --> 0:07:09.000 And obviously everybody's got their opinion about why she and 0:07:09.240 --> 0:07:11.600 Chauncey nominated themselves, but I think it's best that we 0:07:11.640 --> 0:07:14.000 just get it straight from her mouth. And also we 0:07:14.040 --> 0:07:15.440 have the luxury of having her on. I know she 0:07:15.560 --> 0:07:18.680 lays low from podcasts, but she's agreed to come on 0:07:19.320 --> 0:07:21.560 and I'm really excited about that. I really excited to 0:07:21.560 --> 0:07:34.120 hear what she has to say me too. All Right, folks, 0:07:34.640 --> 0:07:38.480 today we have someone who I will say popular opinion 0:07:39.080 --> 0:07:41.000 is that she's gotten a lot of love this season. 0:07:41.360 --> 0:07:45.440 The audience loves her. I've seen video compilations of her 0:07:45.600 --> 0:07:50.200 on Instagram many supportive tweets. I would like to welcome 0:07:50.880 --> 0:07:57.520 Amber Borszutra. Yeah, thank you lady. Hello, we're coming on Amber. 0:07:58.560 --> 0:08:01.040 That was a lot of episode. That was a very 0:08:01.080 --> 0:08:04.840 intense episode. There was a lot going yeah, and honestly 0:08:04.880 --> 0:08:09.280 it's probably the first one I've really fully watched. So yeah, 0:08:09.320 --> 0:08:11.760 it's a lot going on. I kind of been disconnected 0:08:11.800 --> 0:08:14.720 from the Challenge world lately, off social media, and so 0:08:14.800 --> 0:08:16.680 this is like the first time. I don't blame you. 0:08:17.120 --> 0:08:18.720 The Challenge is one of those things. It's like when 0:08:18.720 --> 0:08:20.480 you eat too many cookies and you're like, okay, like 0:08:20.520 --> 0:08:22.480 I've had so much sugar, I can't have anymore. And 0:08:22.520 --> 0:08:26.200 then actually that's always but with this especially because you 0:08:26.360 --> 0:08:28.480 just relive it. And so you said, you know you've 0:08:28.520 --> 0:08:30.360 been taking space from it. How have you and Chauncey 0:08:30.440 --> 0:08:32.920 been post filming? I think great. I think he's good. 0:08:33.000 --> 0:08:34.760 Like we just feel so grateful to have been able 0:08:34.800 --> 0:08:39.000 to share that experience together, just because it's everyone always 0:08:39.000 --> 0:08:40.559 asked me what's it like, and they want to talk 0:08:40.559 --> 0:08:43.000 about and like, I can't explain it, and you have 0:08:43.080 --> 0:08:44.520 to be a part of it and in it to 0:08:44.720 --> 0:08:48.520 understand it. So just for him to actually to have 0:08:48.679 --> 0:08:51.880 him to decompress with, even though I don't want him 0:08:51.880 --> 0:08:54.800 to be going to that as well, Like it's kind 0:08:54.840 --> 0:08:58.920 of comforting in a weird way. But he's been taking 0:08:58.920 --> 0:09:01.439 it great. I think he's he loved every second of it. 0:09:01.559 --> 0:09:04.280 He would do it again if he could. But yeah, 0:09:04.360 --> 0:09:06.880 I'm happy that he got to have that experience and 0:09:06.920 --> 0:09:09.000 share it with me. I think Chauncy was a great 0:09:09.040 --> 0:09:12.840 addition to the bunch, like fresh eyes, you know, bright 0:09:12.880 --> 0:09:14.840 eyed and push your tailed, excited to be there. But 0:09:14.880 --> 0:09:18.040 like when you guys are having that conversation and he's 0:09:18.080 --> 0:09:20.240 like you love everyone and and he was like, well, 0:09:20.280 --> 0:09:23.000 I don't, you know, like this just very just just 0:09:23.160 --> 0:09:27.440 very real, like being on the show that fully supported you. 0:09:27.840 --> 0:09:30.520 I really like Chauncy. I think he's great and he's 0:09:30.559 --> 0:09:33.600 really funny. And I wish they would have shown the bikini, 0:09:33.720 --> 0:09:38.640 but they didn't. They didn't show it. Oh my god, 0:09:40.920 --> 0:09:48.560 such a yeah the world has missed out. Yeah, oh 0:09:48.600 --> 0:09:51.640 my god. Obviously it's unfortunate that you know, you guys leave, 0:09:51.640 --> 0:09:53.400 but there's so much to talk about in this episode 0:09:53.440 --> 0:09:55.959 before that. Even Yeah, we start this episode off with 0:09:56.600 --> 0:09:59.440 not so fast, right, and it's such a mix up 0:09:59.480 --> 0:10:01.480 because were you used to like coming into the episode, 0:10:01.520 --> 0:10:03.559 we get the daily challenge, let me get the elimination. 0:10:03.840 --> 0:10:06.520 We start off with an elimination. It's not so fast 0:10:06.559 --> 0:10:09.480 a Nissa's in there with Jordan and Kenny and Casey. 0:10:09.600 --> 0:10:13.480 Who did you think was gonna win that? Honestly, I 0:10:13.520 --> 0:10:16.720 saw how Jordan and Anisa we're tagging their knots, and 0:10:17.200 --> 0:10:19.320 I would not want to do that. But Kenny and 0:10:19.360 --> 0:10:22.280 Casey did very well. I think for me, just because 0:10:22.280 --> 0:10:24.560 of the relationship I felt like I built and Chauncy 0:10:24.559 --> 0:10:28.000 built with Jordan this season, we kind of wanted them 0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:29.520 to come back. But at the same time, it was 0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:32.520 hard for me to also see cases leave because of 0:10:32.880 --> 0:10:34.600 her and Nanny, So I didn't want to be like 0:10:35.000 --> 0:10:37.040 cas Ago. But in my head, I'm like me, I've 0:10:37.080 --> 0:10:40.440 seen kind of how things have played out with Casey, 0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:43.720 and I felt like Jordan would have my back over Casey. 0:10:43.800 --> 0:10:45.960 So in my mind, I'm like, Anissa, Jordan come back, 0:10:46.040 --> 0:10:48.280 you know. But it's it was a close one and 0:10:48.320 --> 0:10:52.280 I think both killed it. Casey Kenney did great. Anisa 0:10:52.320 --> 0:10:54.719 and Jordan did great. Anissa I was to cracking me 0:10:54.880 --> 0:10:58.360 up talking about her coach I cannot get that. I 0:10:58.440 --> 0:11:01.640 needed a little comic relief that was triggering that I 0:11:01.760 --> 0:11:05.560 cated every moment. Yeah, I had to. I mean it 0:11:05.640 --> 0:11:08.679 was a hard metal bar that was shaped like a square. 0:11:09.040 --> 0:11:12.640 It wasn't comfortable, No, I could tell. I didn't look 0:11:12.679 --> 0:11:14.960 it rude, it was just and then like you said, 0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:17.040 you've done it before, Nissa, but you've never done it 0:11:17.080 --> 0:11:20.000 with somebody, so you kind of had a loss. But 0:11:20.320 --> 0:11:23.559 I debunk this. I need to debunk this, Anisa, Me 0:11:23.640 --> 0:11:26.560 and you did Not So Fast tied together in Champ's 0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:31.360 First Star. Yeah, but I mind like bad fucking Memory 0:11:32.440 --> 0:11:34.320 were going to be the ship and we were like 0:11:34.360 --> 0:11:39.120 so of each other. I thought like we're both flexible, 0:11:39.320 --> 0:11:42.280 like we could do this, we were so bad at it. 0:11:42.320 --> 0:11:44.719 And actually that's kind of what had my mindset going 0:11:44.720 --> 0:11:46.800 in when you went into this again, tied somebody, because 0:11:46.800 --> 0:11:48.559 I'm like, me and Nissa did this, we weren't good 0:11:48.600 --> 0:11:50.960 at it. So I just was like, I don't know 0:11:51.000 --> 0:11:52.400 if she's going to be able to do what I 0:11:52.440 --> 0:11:55.120 wouldn't be able to do with somebody. So yeah, I 0:11:55.160 --> 0:11:57.840 think it was isn't it true that was the fastest 0:11:57.960 --> 0:12:03.520 untie Not So Fast in record? History record. That's amazing, 0:12:03.679 --> 0:12:06.520 Like it's gonna take trance and agility. I'm like, you 0:12:06.520 --> 0:12:08.400 know that everyone's out of breath not so fast as 0:12:08.440 --> 0:12:11.439 one of the hardest things. Yeah, I think one of 0:12:11.480 --> 0:12:15.440 the harder eliminations that not that rope is so heavy 0:12:15.920 --> 0:12:17.560 and the fact you have to weave your body with 0:12:17.600 --> 0:12:20.559 another human being through small spaces, like I hope they 0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:23.160 size that for everybody, like my ass is not little 0:12:23.720 --> 0:12:27.840 and joining two bodies going together like it, I'm it 0:12:27.960 --> 0:12:31.440 just it really worked out well. Yeah, well, you know, 0:12:31.520 --> 0:12:34.679 it's obviously great that you came back and Amber. Now 0:12:34.720 --> 0:12:36.400 you have to take into account in the game who 0:12:36.440 --> 0:12:38.480 are your alliances and you mentioned it at this point, 0:12:38.520 --> 0:12:41.160 like you don't really feel like you have many people 0:12:41.240 --> 0:12:43.480 in your corner. I mean the numbers are so small 0:12:43.760 --> 0:12:46.640 that you see where people are tied up, So you know, 0:12:46.679 --> 0:12:48.280 who do you feel like at this point in the 0:12:48.320 --> 0:12:51.559 game is really riding with you and Chauncey If anybody 0:12:52.200 --> 0:12:54.360 you know that where I felt who I felt closest 0:12:54.360 --> 0:12:57.800 too would be Olivia Rassio just because a Rossio, I 0:12:57.840 --> 0:13:00.400 felt close to him and also chauncing him, I felt 0:13:00.400 --> 0:13:03.480 like I had this weird, crazy bond that just friendship 0:13:03.720 --> 0:13:06.200 started to this flourish, which was amazing. And then I 0:13:06.200 --> 0:13:09.319 feel like Olivia, just like in the beginning and just 0:13:09.559 --> 0:13:11.960 you know, throughout this season she's never said my name. 0:13:12.000 --> 0:13:14.040 I felt like anytime she could have, she would have, 0:13:14.200 --> 0:13:15.840 and like, I just felt like she was more on 0:13:15.840 --> 0:13:18.360 my seven. Plus my rookie season, I thought it was 0:13:18.400 --> 0:13:20.679 amazing making it to a final, and I in my mind, 0:13:20.720 --> 0:13:23.360 I was like, I think that would be amazing that 0:13:23.440 --> 0:13:26.160 I have. I felt like friends in here and I've 0:13:26.160 --> 0:13:28.920 played this season with Olivia Rossio and they would make 0:13:28.960 --> 0:13:30.760 it there if I even if I don't, you know, 0:13:30.920 --> 0:13:33.360 So I felt closest to them just at this point, 0:13:33.400 --> 0:13:35.800 just because I understood like kind of where I stood 0:13:35.840 --> 0:13:37.719 my rookie season, I kind of put myself in though 0:13:37.720 --> 0:13:40.720 she was. Plus, I'm also attached to Chauncey that he 0:13:40.920 --> 0:13:43.280 is a rookie, so I kind of I'm playing his 0:13:43.400 --> 0:13:45.880 game too, So I'm like, in my mind, this is 0:13:45.920 --> 0:13:48.040 just the pair I feel closest too. And I think 0:13:48.080 --> 0:13:51.520 it's also just as well, just because I've played seasons 0:13:51.520 --> 0:13:55.000 with all of y'all in I just have never felt 0:13:55.040 --> 0:13:58.400 like we've all worked together, you know, we've never worked together, 0:13:58.559 --> 0:14:02.600 none of us have, so mind I was like, Okay, 0:14:02.080 --> 0:14:05.400 I haven't had my back in this game at all, 0:14:05.440 --> 0:14:08.240 you know, other seasons or yet here in this game, 0:14:08.280 --> 0:14:11.480 so why would they now? Yeah, which I think is 0:14:11.520 --> 0:14:13.720 totally fair. And also, like you said, at this point 0:14:13.720 --> 0:14:15.600 in the game, now we're back with our right or eyes, 0:14:15.679 --> 0:14:18.520 Like we just went from being in jeans and now 0:14:18.520 --> 0:14:22.000 you're back. So you're adopting a new strategy again throughout 0:14:22.000 --> 0:14:24.680 the game and you have to figure out how to 0:14:24.720 --> 0:14:26.920 maneuver from here. But how did it feel to be 0:14:26.960 --> 0:14:29.760 paired with Chauncey again? It felt good because that's why 0:14:29.880 --> 0:14:33.000 what I came into this season four is him. I 0:14:34.280 --> 0:14:36.760 it's crazy. I said no, and I was just like 0:14:36.800 --> 0:14:39.720 I did not want to do it, even after the 0:14:39.760 --> 0:14:42.200 previous season. I was like, if I get a chance 0:14:42.400 --> 0:14:43.760 to take a break, I want to take a break. 0:14:44.000 --> 0:14:45.840 And then when I heard the theme and like we 0:14:45.880 --> 0:14:48.240 could bring somebody, I'm like, this is what it is. 0:14:48.400 --> 0:14:50.960 He was. He just lit up and I wanted h 0:14:51.080 --> 0:14:53.080 to have that experience, and I was like, I told 0:14:53.160 --> 0:14:56.240 him straight up. I was like, I will sacrifice how 0:14:56.280 --> 0:14:58.680 I feel. I will put everything at the side and 0:14:59.120 --> 0:15:00.400 just do it. If you want to to do this, 0:15:00.480 --> 0:15:03.560 I will do it. And literally, I shit you not. 0:15:03.800 --> 0:15:06.080 Two three days before I even leave where you go, 0:15:06.200 --> 0:15:08.040 we are out, Me and him went out to dinner 0:15:08.320 --> 0:15:09.880 because you know, you have to eat all that your 0:15:09.920 --> 0:15:14.560 favorite things were really they want to know, and I 0:15:14.640 --> 0:15:17.400 just started crying and we all know I'm freaking emotional, 0:15:17.480 --> 0:15:19.240 and he's like, why are you cry crying? I'm like, 0:15:19.320 --> 0:15:22.520 I'm mentally struggling and preparing myself for what I'm about 0:15:22.560 --> 0:15:25.280 to get into. And it's already like I'm struggling with 0:15:25.320 --> 0:15:28.360 that already before even entering the game. And it was like, 0:15:28.400 --> 0:15:30.720 I'm kind of excited for you to experience this, but 0:15:30.800 --> 0:15:33.360 I don't want you to experience how I feel mentally, 0:15:33.560 --> 0:15:36.200 you know. So that was a struggle for me. Knowing 0:15:36.240 --> 0:15:39.040 that he's gonna he's coming on this season, I didn't 0:15:39.040 --> 0:15:41.240 want him to get well though I feel like he's 0:15:41.280 --> 0:15:44.880 pretty well well adjusted. I don't ye, yeah, but I 0:15:45.000 --> 0:15:48.800 also feel like some people's experiences on their first season, 0:15:48.880 --> 0:15:52.400 because they're fresh, they haven't been tainted by the process. 0:15:53.000 --> 0:15:55.800 And he seems to deal with his anxiety very well 0:15:55.840 --> 0:15:58.440 because it's a very us place to be and we 0:15:58.560 --> 0:16:02.400 all I think act out when anxious in different ways, 0:16:02.880 --> 0:16:04.520 and he just seemed to like take it all in 0:16:04.640 --> 0:16:07.520 stride and you know, just like be a big kid 0:16:07.520 --> 0:16:10.640 and like absorb everything. Yeah, I think that sort it was. 0:16:10.680 --> 0:16:12.200 I think it was just more of him being like, 0:16:12.280 --> 0:16:13.880 you know, I'm just here. I can't believe I have this, 0:16:14.160 --> 0:16:16.840 I'm doing this, this is that I'm here. Like it 0:16:16.960 --> 0:16:19.080 was just more of like I can leave now. I 0:16:19.080 --> 0:16:21.760 can leave, you know, first, right in the beginning of 0:16:21.800 --> 0:16:23.520 the game, or I can leave later. It's just I'm 0:16:23.560 --> 0:16:26.680 actually having this opportunity and that means everything to me 0:16:26.960 --> 0:16:29.240 when or not. And so I think that that mindset 0:16:29.320 --> 0:16:30.800 him going in like that was just like I'm just 0:16:30.800 --> 0:16:34.240 gonna have fun and yeah, you know see what this 0:16:34.280 --> 0:16:36.280 is all about. So I don't know, I'm proud of him, 0:16:36.280 --> 0:16:38.440 and I'm very happy that he got to be a 0:16:38.440 --> 0:16:40.680 part of the Challenge family. Yeah, I think he was 0:16:40.720 --> 0:16:43.320 a perfect partner for you and I. He was a 0:16:43.360 --> 0:16:46.920 great addition. He was very funny. Yeah, that makes me happy. 0:16:47.400 --> 0:16:49.800 But watching you know, obviously you get we all got 0:16:49.800 --> 0:16:51.320 back with the Rider Eyes and then we had to 0:16:51.360 --> 0:16:55.720 jump right back into another partner challenge, Daily Challenge. Well, 0:16:57.920 --> 0:17:12.360 the bar bus or no bus. Oh no, no, no no, 0:17:15.200 --> 0:17:24.280 so unintendible of bus bars the CBB. Okay, so we 0:17:24.320 --> 0:17:27.919 know what we're talking about here. Yeah, but like, what 0:17:28.080 --> 0:17:34.360 was it like being in there with It was so girl, 0:17:34.440 --> 0:17:36.520 It was way worse than that because it was all 0:17:36.520 --> 0:17:39.159 over the balls. I don't know when he first initially puked, 0:17:39.760 --> 0:17:42.360 but I also don't like I get motion sickness too, 0:17:42.480 --> 0:17:44.720 and I'm surprised I did not throw up in that. 0:17:44.840 --> 0:17:47.280 But I think I was just like I didn't care. 0:17:47.359 --> 0:17:49.760 I was just like, I mean, I'm probably I'm sure 0:17:49.800 --> 0:17:52.920 I'm gonna have to, Like, there's nastier things I'm gonna 0:17:53.040 --> 0:17:55.360 have to get my hands on and be in. So 0:17:55.480 --> 0:17:57.600 I was just like, let's just finish this out, rinse 0:17:57.640 --> 0:17:59.560 ourselves off, and get this over with. I just wanted 0:17:59.600 --> 0:18:01.800 to pull the lever two, you know when you did. 0:18:01.840 --> 0:18:03.639 I was just like, let this just be over with. 0:18:03.880 --> 0:18:06.080 I felt like we didn't have I don't know, we 0:18:06.119 --> 0:18:07.760 were just going in circles for way too long. I 0:18:07.760 --> 0:18:09.800 felt like we were out there for a while. Amber. 0:18:09.840 --> 0:18:12.600 I've never seen somebody's body. No, I just want to 0:18:12.600 --> 0:18:17.440 continue to talk about Amber's body flailing flying, Like how 0:18:17.840 --> 0:18:19.679 you like, how did you not? How did we not 0:18:19.760 --> 0:18:22.960 walk out of that thing and cussed? I know, like 0:18:23.520 --> 0:18:25.879 something happened that day. There's still a part of us 0:18:25.880 --> 0:18:31.480 on that bus. There's a part of you, and there's 0:18:29.359 --> 0:18:37.119 a definitely on there. Oh my god, his little pukes Tory, 0:18:37.520 --> 0:18:40.400 you just fucking projectile vomited on your Oh my god, 0:18:40.440 --> 0:18:43.760 sure did, and then pulled the lever and goes, oh no, 0:18:44.359 --> 0:18:49.520 you're like. I was like, I'm done not to make 0:18:49.520 --> 0:18:51.560 this about me, because we're gonna get more a namber TAUSI. 0:18:51.680 --> 0:18:53.280 But like, dude, Devin looked like he was on the 0:18:53.320 --> 0:18:56.840 lazy river, like he was flying on the balls. I'm like, 0:18:56.960 --> 0:19:00.400 you Amber, I was like tossed around the Yes, oh 0:19:00.480 --> 0:19:03.119 my god. It was intense. But the week before on 0:19:03.160 --> 0:19:06.719 the Heights Challenge, Chauncey didn't want to compete, So do 0:19:06.760 --> 0:19:09.679 you think that like coming into this week he was like, 0:19:09.720 --> 0:19:11.760 all right, fuck the car sickness, I just have to 0:19:12.000 --> 0:19:14.919 I don't. He doesn't get car sick So that was 0:19:14.960 --> 0:19:17.320 just that was new to me. I was like, I 0:19:17.359 --> 0:19:20.320 wasn't expecting that. But you know, I think just any challenge, 0:19:20.359 --> 0:19:21.879 like all of us, we like to just go hard 0:19:22.040 --> 0:19:25.879 and we ate nasty shit. We've seen it where, you know, 0:19:25.960 --> 0:19:28.119 we deal with it. Like I've been puked on plenty 0:19:28.119 --> 0:19:30.520 of times in my life by friends who have been hungovertolid. 0:19:30.920 --> 0:19:33.440 So I was like, this is nothing new, Like let's 0:19:33.440 --> 0:19:35.280 just get it through, you know. But yeah, I think 0:19:35.320 --> 0:19:38.240 he went in it just like wanting to also prove 0:19:38.359 --> 0:19:40.560 himself as also a rookie and just be like, you know, 0:19:40.640 --> 0:19:44.080 I did last last challenge, and I want to prove myself. 0:19:44.119 --> 0:19:45.879 I want to do better now. I'm also paired up 0:19:45.880 --> 0:19:49.040 with Amber again and hopefully, you know, we can get 0:19:49.040 --> 0:19:51.639 a win. So okay, so before we go any further, 0:19:51.760 --> 0:19:53.600 we need to take a quick break. We'll be right 0:19:53.640 --> 0:20:07.199 back after this. It seems like pretty immediately, you know, 0:20:07.280 --> 0:20:09.680 in your confessionals or your interviews at least, it seems 0:20:09.680 --> 0:20:11.400 like you come to the conclusion that like, okay, you're 0:20:11.400 --> 0:20:14.440 going to throw yourself in yeah, which I think. I'm 0:20:14.440 --> 0:20:17.320 just curious, when did you start once you saw who 0:20:17.400 --> 0:20:20.600 was in power? When did it become like strategy for 0:20:20.680 --> 0:20:23.359 you to do this? Well, It's so crazy because Nannie 0:20:23.359 --> 0:20:24.840 even knows when me and Nannie were on a team, 0:20:24.840 --> 0:20:26.280 and I'm like, if you could ever go against me 0:20:26.520 --> 0:20:28.480 and like, if it ever has to be to where 0:20:28.600 --> 0:20:30.679 like you're in there and you have to go against me, 0:20:30.760 --> 0:20:34.119
